The man in the prison was wearing a white prison uniform, but it was already very dirty, and several shocking whip marks could be seen on the torn prison uniform, and a faint amount of blood could even be seen oozing from the wound because the wound was not properly treated.

Almost all the jailers in the prison were dispatched to arrest the escaped prisoners, except for the prisoners, it was empty and unguarded, and Gu Qi and they easily entered it.

The cells in which the prisoners had been held were all empty, except for one person in this room, coughing softly on his back.

Gu Qi kept holding on to the wooden railing of the cell, one hand in his sleeve, and his gaze swept over the man inside: "Zhao Qing? ”

The man inside looked back, and it was an expressionless face, with the dark color of the miners that could not be washed off, unkempt, and deeply haggard. The man's mouth moved, and a barely audible voice came out: "Who are you?" ”

"Are you really Zhao Qing?" Hui Qi was surprised, and hurriedly threw himself on the railing and looked at Zhao Qing carefully, "But Sun Youcai said that you are dead." ”

"I'm not dead." Zhao Qing's face was expressionless, "They don't dare to kill me." ”

Gu Qi raised his eyebrows and said, "If my guess is right, you must have Feng Kejie's handle, so they don't dare to touch you." ”

"Not bad." Zhao Qing nodded without hesitation, "I have a letter from Sun Youcai and a certain official in the capital. ”

Hearing this news, Xu Yihua was even more excited than Gu Qi, after all, it had always been his wish to find out the joints in it, and he couldn't wait to ask at this time: "Where is that letter?" ”

Zhao Qing sneered: "How can I tell you that you corrupt officials, as long as I die, this letter will be published by my friends, and I will see how one of you escapes when the time comes!" ”

"We're not in league with that Feng Kojie." Xu Yihua frowned.

Zhao Qing snorted fiercely, his emotions became excited all of a sudden, his hands waved wildly, and the iron shackles on his body rattled: "Come less!" Haven't you played this trick a long time ago, and you still want to pretend to be garlic in front of me, lie to my letters, and dream! ”

"We're really not ......" Xu Yihua hurriedly explained, but Zhao Qing couldn't listen to it at all.

Gu Qi withdrew his hand that had been holding on the railing and pulled it into his sleeve: "Do you remember the Tiangushan coal mine collapse incident a year ago?" ”

Zhao Qing suddenly quieted down.

"At that time, it was announced that twenty-eight people had died......

"Fart!" Zhao Qing almost jumped up from the ground, this action touched his wound, and he bared his teeth in pain, "At that time...... Forty-one people were dead! ”

Gu Qi didn't care about him, and said to himself: "At that time, someone came to investigate the case, but he didn't find out the truth, but instead killed others as scapegoats, and all eleven members of the family hanged themselves......"

"That's not his fault...... Don't blame him......" Zhao Qing muttered to himself, "He is also working hard to investigate the case, and no one blames him...... It's because we're too angry, blame us ......"

Zhao Qing's tone gradually lowered, he drooped his head, and grabbed his hair with both hands in pain: "It's our bad ......"

Gu Qi took a deep breath: "Now that he is investigating the case again, what will you do?" ”

"I survived the Tiangushan coal mine collapse case, I didn't stand up that time, I'm sorry for the forty-one people who died, and now I will definitely not be sorry for the eighty-three people who died, it's all life......"

"Where's that letter?" Gu Qizheng said, "Tell me." ”

Zhao Qing gradually understood at this time, he looked at the person in front of him in surprise, and seemed to guess his identity in his heart: "You...... You are ......"

"That's right." Gu Qi nodded, "I am the water worry wind back then, and now I have been named a messenger by the current emperor, it is here to investigate the collapse of the Qiandoishan Coal Mine that happened not long ago, this case has been found to the key place, I hope to have your cooperation." ”

Zhao Qing clasped his hands tightly: "How can I cooperate?" ”

"Three days later, you tell Feng Kejie to take him to get the letter yourself, and then we will set up our men and wait for them to come in. At that time, someone will come to you and ask you about the details of the collapse of the coal mine, and you just have to tell the truth. Gu Qidao, "Liu Sanniang is also very good." ”

Zhao Qing glanced at Gu Qi gratefully: "I will." ”

"I'm going to have you hold on a little more in prison these days."

"It's okay, they wouldn't dare kill me anyway." Zhao Qing had a sneer on his face, "I will watch them go to death with my own eyes!" ”

When he came out of prison, Xu Yihua's face finally showed a relaxed expression, but Gu Qi was uncharacteristically silent.

The expression on Gu Qi's face not only did not relax, but showed a little heaviness.

"What's wrong?" Xu Yihua was puzzled, "Isn't the case almost closed?" Someone has already testified, plus the roster, account books, and letters are all in place, and this time Feng Kejie will definitely pay the price for this. ”

Gu Qi rubbed his eyebrows tiredly: "It's nothing, I always feel a little uneasy." ”

"......Restless," Xu Yihua frowned, "Are you worried about something?" ”

"I don't know." Gu Qi shook his head, "I felt uneasy when I was just out of prison, and after I came out, this feeling became more obvious, I think something might be happening." ”

Xu Yihua never doubted Gu Qi's feelings, and it turned out that Gu Qi's feelings were never wrong: "Your feelings will not go wrong." ”

Gu Qi took a deep breath irritably, and suppressed the feeling in his heart: "There shouldn't be anything, maybe I'm thinking too much, let's go." ”

There was only a small door left on the high outer wall, and when Gu Qi and the others came out of the cell, they couldn't see a little sunlight outside, and they couldn't see sunlight here, but they were all tightly covered by Gao Qiang behind them.

Outside was an extremely quiet narrow street, the ground was paved with bluestone slabs, glowing with a faint light, and the cold wind swirled in, blowing Gu Qi's long cloak.

Hui Qi sighed into the palm of his hand and shrunk his shoulders: "It's so cold." ”

The three of them walked slowly on this deserted street, ignoring the cold wind, only leisurely: "Feng Kejie heard that those prisoners have run away, are they also packing up their things and preparing to run away?" ”

"It's hard to say." Gu Qi shrank his shoulders like Hui Qi, stretched out Xu Yihua's hands next to Leng Buding, and carefully fastened the cloak for him, "In case the one above wants to protect him, maybe another scapegoat will be pulled." ”

"Makes sense." Hui Qi nodded, "So what should we do, aren't we working in vain?" ”

"But now we have a letter between Feng Kejie and the one above, that official has been exposed by Feng Kejie, presumably he already hates him at this moment, and he can't wait to kill him earlier, how can he be saved."

Hui Qi sighed: "Dark officialdom." ”

"Seven emotions and six desires, greed is the first desire, it's not just talking." Gu Qi sighed, and then asked Xu Yihua, "What are you greedy for?" ”

Xu Yihua paused and held Gu Qi's hand: "You." ”

Hui Qi: "......"

Why do you suddenly feel like you're lonely......

After walking a short distance, they met a fork, one still straight forward, and the other branched out and turned right.

"It's almost noon now." Gu Qi smiled, turned his hand and patted Xu Yihua's shoulder, "You go to the place where Zhao Qing said and take out the letter." ”

"It's fine." Xu Yihua nodded, "I'll go and come back quickly." ”

Hui Qi waved his little hand: "I'm waiting for you to eat at noon, Uncle Xu~~"

Xu Yihua bowed, turned around and walked to the right.

As soon as he walked away, Gu Qi grabbed Hui Qi's wrist: "Let's go back to the yamen quickly." ”

"What's wrong?" Hui Qi was puzzled.

Gu Qi frowned: "I always feel a little uneasy in my heart, hurry back to the yamen, it is the safest place." ”

Hui Qi's expression was full, and the two of them immediately walked quickly.

"Wait!" Gu Qi suddenly stopped, "There is a murderous aura." ”

Hui Qi's heart skipped a beat, and he looked around nervously.

Although Gu Qi has lost his martial arts now, his body is still very sensitive to murderous aura, especially this murderous aura is almost locked on himself, making his hairs stand on end.

"Where, where?" Hui Qi was so frightened that he hid behind Gu Qi.

Xu Yihua just left, he and Hui Qi did not have any martial arts, the combined force value of the two people is equal to half a person, if they really encounter danger now, they have no ability to resist.

"Feng Kejie!" Gu Qi calmly retreated with Hui Qi, and the two gradually leaned their backs against the high wall, their eyes swept around vigilantly.

The person must be Feng Kejie's person, but he didn't expect the other party to be so uncontrollable and make this stupid decision so quickly, and he actually wanted to send someone to kill him, but he still chose a time when Xu Yihua was not there.

I don't know how many people Feng Kejie sent this time, but no matter how many killers came, they categorically had no possibility of escaping, and the only way was to ask Xu Yihua for help, hoping that the other party had not gone far yet.

"Scream!" Gu Qi squeezed Hui Qi's hand.

"Ah!!!!!!!h Hui Qi suddenly screamed like a pig.

"Not good!" The killers hidden in the shadows glanced at each other, and suddenly jumped out from behind the high wall and approached Gu Qi and the others.

"Not good!" Although he had already walked away, Xu Yihua, who could still faintly hear the movement over there because of his kung fu, changed his face, and immediately turned around and ran behind him.

Four people......

There were a total of four people in front of them, and they gradually surrounded each other in a way that was encircled.

"Who are you?" Gu Qi said calmly, he wanted to delay the time a little.

"Don't worry about it!" Among them, the man with a black cloth on his face held a scimitar in his hand, and said in a sullen voice, "You just know that someone wants your life." ”

"Isn't it Feng Kejie?" Gu Qi took a step back again.

This time, no one spoke, and the masked man who was talking between him stepped forward with a knife and stabbed him fiercely.

The other three people blocked all of Gu Qi's way to the ground, and behind him was Hui Qi, it was impossible to retreat at this time, he gritted his teeth, and was just about to raise his leg to kick the knife.

But he knew that this was useless, the strength of the two could not be compared at all, and he was just using his mantis arm as a car.

Suddenly, there was a shrug from behind, and Hui Qi stabbed in front of Gu Qi, and the whole person hit the tip of the knife at once.

With a "poof", the tip of the knife □□ Huiqi's chest fiercely, and blood gushed out.

The movements of all this seemed to become extremely slow at that moment, but Gu Qi could only watch as Hui Qi's little face twisted, miserable and white, and became blurred from her vision as her body slid down.
