Many people have told me that the cells of the torture hall are like the abyss of the human race. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
- "Memoirs of Fan"
Ning Jue's eyes when she looked at Chen Fan'er became a little disgusted.
Anyone who was invited to drink tea by the torture hall in the imperial city basically went and never returned. However, Chen Faner didn't know about this relationship.
"Go back quickly, the people of the Temple of Torture are already waiting in your house." Ning Jue urged.
Chen Fan'er glanced at Yan Qinghuan, which meant "Do you want to go back together?" ”
However, this idea was immediately blocked by Ning Jue, and she directly left a message to Qing Huan to continue to discuss the matter of grinding needles, and did not plan to let this little girl join with any torture hall.
After getting up and retreating, Chen Fan'er was not in a hurry to go back, but thought carefully on the way that there would be something that would make the people in the torture hall target him.
"I'm entering the Imperial City for the first time, and I have no relatives or a reason, why are you looking for me?" Seeing that the house was in front of him, Chen Fan'er still didn't think about the reason.
In line with the belief that he was not afraid of shadows, Chen Fan'er entered the house calmly.
There were two people standing in the room. One of them was a strange middle-aged man, who was dressed in black, with a chin as sharp as a knife and eyes as sharp as a goshawk, giving people a great sense of oppression. The other is Song Sibao, at this moment she put her hands in her cuffs, lowered her head slightly, and seemed to be unaware when she saw Chen Fan'er entering the house.
However, Chen Fan'er didn't pay attention to these two people at the first glance when she entered the house, but saw that her bed was messed up and her baggage was opened.
"You are Cheng Fan'er?" Chen Fan'er was still thinking when she was interrupted by a very low question.
"The little girl is exactly." Chen Fan'er noticed that the atmosphere was a little solemn, and she didn't dare to slack off, so she hurriedly replied.
"Your roommate Li Hong has confessed completely, she is a demon spy who tried in vain to infiltrate the inner palace and harm the prince. Do you have something to say? The man didn't even introduce himself, he got straight to the point.
But this is also ridiculous, why did Li Hong suddenly become a demon spy? Chen Fan'er was shocked and set her eyes on Li Hong's bed, there were some blood stains on it, and it seemed that she had fought in the house?
But what does this have to do with you? Chen Fan'er was determined, and she was not afraid to look at the middle-aged man, and asked sincerely, "My lord, I don't know what to call it?" ”
At this time, Song Sibao raised his head, looked a little puzzled, and said: "This is the Shen master of the torture hall, Cheng Fan'er, you truthfully reply to Lord Shen's inquiry." ”
"Lord Shen. The little girl and Li Hong only met for the first time on the dragon boat a few days ago, and she has not yet had time to understand her personality and details, let alone know that she is a demon spy. ”
Director Shen snorted coldly and said, "Li Hong confessed that you are her accomplice." This official wants to know now, do you have any other demon accomplices! ”
"Your Excellency has wronged!" Chen Fan'er instinctively shouted. He was almost killed by the demons many times, and he thought that if he could practice magic skills, he would also kill some demons to avenge his old revenge. Why did you eat a dinner and become a demon spy?!
It's so wronged, this must be slander!
"This official is not here to listen to your grievances. If you have an accomplice, confess early. If you go to the prison of the torture hall and are recruiting, hum, you are comfortable. Master Shen said coldly, as if he was sure that Chen Fan'er was also a spy of the demon clan.
Song Sibao didn't dare to say much, because this matter involved the demon clan, and Chen Fan'er was not officially admitted to the embroidery bureau, so naturally he couldn't excuse him.
"My lord, maybe there is some misunderstanding, don't listen to Li Hong framing me." Chen Fan'er is in a hurry, is the official in this imperial city unreasonable? I can't explain how to bite it.
"Humph! Still quibbling! Isn't it your own possession? Director Shen flipped his right hand and took out a fang. Yes, this thing is the second Demon Bat Tooth that Chen Fan'er is preparing to grind.
Chen Fan'er was stunned, no wonder the other party insisted that he was a demon spy. But it's okay, she can explain.
"The flesh and blood of the demon race can summon the otherworldly channel, you must have bad intentions in collecting it, and give you two breaths of time, if you don't recruit companions, follow me back to the torture hall, I have my own way to make you speak!"
Chen Fan'er sighed in her heart, what does this make people say! There is no room for explanation!
"My lord, this is really wronged!" In desperation, Chen Faner could only continue to cry out for grievances.
"Stubborn!" As soon as Director Shen raised his hand, an iron chain swished on Chen Fan'er's hands, and then the iron chain tightened, Chen Fan'er couldn't resist anymore, and his two hands were immediately tied behind him.
"My lord, the little girl is indeed not a demon spy, you should give me a chance to explain after all, I ......"
"Forbidden!" Shen Zhi's index finger was a little, and Chen Fan'er's voice was eliminated.
"Lord Song, this time thanks to you for detecting it in time, otherwise the consequences will be unbearable." Director Song banned Chen Fan'er, so he changed back to the tone of officialdom and chatted with Song Sibao.
"Lord Shen, I went to the Kongming Pavilion for divination on the orders of Lord Li, Master Fu has a saying, 'The devil's heart is dyed with needles, and it is really rare', and now it seems that the last sentence is solved, this next sentence?"
"Forgive me for being stupid, I can only understand the hexagram of Master Fu every time. However, looking at the literal meaning, the Shang Xiu Bureau should be a blessing and a curse, since the 'demon heart' has been removed, I think it will harvest the 'sincerity'. ”
Chen Fan'er's eyes, ears, and mouth were banned at the moment, and she was in deep darkness, so she naturally didn't know what the two in front of her were talking about.
The two chatted from the hexagram, and then returned to the matter of the demon clan's spies. In fact, they carefully searched everyone's luggage, so Chen Fan'er was considered a demon spy, and it couldn't be said that he was particularly wronged.
The only thing that can't be understood is how can Li Hong testify against herself?
Chen Fan'er fell into darkness but was not flustered, after all, it was not the first time she had encountered such a scene. It didn't take long for her to feel herself floating, then moving rapidly in one direction, followed by a wave of dizziness.
When she regained her senses, she was in a cold, damp prison.
There were many cells in the torture hall, but few lived in them. Under the rule of the dragons, there was a huge change in the criminal law.
Those who commit minor crimes shall be punished, those who are guilty of moderate crimes shall be given slavery, and those who shall be killed for serious crimes. There are only these three criteria.
Therefore, the prison is usually a place where prisoners are held temporarily, and no one is in a cage.
Chen Fan'er touched his whole body and found that the other party had not confiscated the fine objects on his body, such as iron and grinding stones, colorful glass beads, and cloud-wrapped belts, all of which were still on his body.
However, she was handchained with bracelets and anklets, and the iron rings were engraved with blood-red runes, and it was obvious that even those who were proficient in magic would be controlled.
She looked at the prison door, and suddenly felt a deep sense of loss in her heart.
"Is there really no reason in the Imperial City? What should I do, I didn't know anyone when I first entered the Imperial City, and the Shang Xiu Bureau obviously didn't want to help me. It's so strange, how could Li Hong be a spy of the demon clan, she is so timid; What's even more strange is why she is framing me, and what good is it for her? ”
Just when Chen Fan'er's mind was messing up and panicking, Director Shen was carefully checking Chen Fan'er's baggage.
There seemed to be nothing in the baggage except some broken silver, a delicate little wooden box, and a few pieces of clothing.
"Huh? This is? Director Shen took a purple gold token and looked at it carefully. (To be continued.) )
