327, the money offensive, King Ning's painful choice
In fact, Nangong Mo didn't do anything strange. However, some meridians and acupuncture points in the human body can improve people's perception of pain after being properly stimulated. The human body will become more sensitive to external stimuli, and in layman's terms, the sensitivity to pain will increase significantly, but the tolerance will decrease year-on-year. For example, if you are bitten by an ant, ordinary people may feel a little pain. But after being stimulated, what people feel may be the pain of piercing the heart. No matter how severely trained a person is, as long as he is still a living person with normal intelligence and clear sanity, he will always have a tolerance for it. It's just a matter of whether you can touch that bottom line.
Nangong Mo put away the silver needle and said with a smile to the guards standing aside: "Now you can continue the execution." β
The two guards looked at each other, looking at the person who kept twitching, and for a while they couldn't do anything. They were actually very suspicious, and if they did it again, this person would probably be interrupted by them in the next moment. If the prisoners were to die at their hands, wouldn't it seem that their methods of torture were very unprofessional?
"Don't worry, I'll take care of him." Nangong Mo is calm and authentic.
"Let's do it." King Ning sat down in the chair brought by the guards, holding his forehead and looking at the prisoner in front of him lazily.
"Yes." Since the prince said so, of course they had no opinion.
"Smack!"
"Huh?!" A terrible scream rang out in the hall, and the execution guard was startled and almost threw the whip to the ground. They only gave a tentative whip and didn't use much force. But the cry of this one... It's definitely worse than what they did all night last night. At the same time, there was a little more awe in his eyes when he looked at Nangong Mo.
Another whip was drawn.
The desperate wail of a beast resounded throughout the hall, and the man who fell to the ground not only trembled and spasmed at this time, but even began to foam at the mouth and roll his eyes. The two Assassins who were watching from the side were also dead-faced. They didn't know what Nangong Mo had done to their companions, but they still knew what they could bear. Just whipped ... For these people, even if they are really sucked alive, it may not bring them to their knees. Perhaps, this is the so-called life is better than death?
"Lord of Star City, what are you doing? Seeing that people were about to be killed. Wei Hongfei's face turned pale.
Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, the king of the county, although my medical skills are not good, there is no problem with keeping him alone." With that, he raised his hand to stop the guards who were still waving the whip, walked over and crouched down, and quickly clicked on several points of the twitching assassin's acupoints, and the people on the ground gradually calmed down, and soon only low moans could be heard. But the breathing has gradually begun to subside.
Nangong Mo stood up and said with a smile: "Since it has eased up, let's continue?" β
Still coming?
King Ning turned his head and glanced at Wei Junmo, but he didn't see the slightest change in the other party's eyes. For men, they generally find that the women around them are so cruel, no matter how fragrant the country is, it is more respectful than liked, right? Even if he likes beauties, no matter how much he likes beauties, he has long been interested in Nangong Mo's. Could it be that Wei Junmo likes this flavor?
Wei Junmo turned his head sideways, glanced at him lightly, and before he could react, he turned back and continued to look at Nangong Mo intently. King Ning found that he could see a bit of tenderness from his paralyzed face.
I'm going, do you want to have such a strong taste?! Can you still be tender to such a murderous woman?
Nangong Mo took out a small medicine bottle, directly broke the assassin's mouth, and poured it in. The person who had just been limp on the ground like a puddle of mud rolled on the ground in pain. A slurred wail came out of his mouth.
"Lord of Star City, do you want to kill people?" Wei Junze said sharply.
Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows, "Second Prince Wei doesn't have to worry, this is not poison." β
"If it's not poison, he'll do this?"
"Is he dead? I will directly feed him the medicine that kills him, so why bother? Nangong Mo said lightly. Wei Junze couldn't refute, so he had to snort lightly and muttered in a low voice: "Who knows what your idea is?" β
"Ahh Not... Spare your life... I'll move, I'll move..."The assassin cried out in pain as if he finally couldn't take it anymore.
After waiting for another moment, Nangong Mo nodded with satisfaction, reached out and stuffed a pill into his mouth. Gradually, the assassin finally calmed down, but he was tortured all night, and he couldn't raise any strength at all after being tossed by Nangong Mo like this. The feeling of finally being free from pain is like being in heaven. The Assassin didn't even open his eyes, as if exhausted, and lay on the ground drowsy.
Nangong Mo got up and looked at Biyan who had been waiting on the side with a smile and said with a smile: "Biyan girl, it's up to you next." β
Biyan's gaze at Nangong Mo was full of awe, and she was even more respectful to King Ning than usual. She always thought that people like King Ning, who cut people's hands and tongues at every turn, and even killed people, were already the most terrible people in the world. But now she knew that there were still more terrible means in this world than King Ning. She is not an ordinary female dependent, she used to follow King Ning to observe the torture of prisoners, and some of the specially trained dead soldiers are real, even if they are beaten to death and tossed to death, they will not speak, and they will even leave some false confessions to mislead people. But I have never seen Xiang Nangong Mo toss a well-trained dead soldier like this with such an understatement. She could even feel that whenever Nangong Mo approached that assassin, that assassin's whole body was trembling, it was really fearful.
Nangong Mo had never used this method before, firstly, she didn't know much about the dead after all, and secondly, she didn't have a completely non-toxic medicine that could make people feel extremely painful, which was something that had only recently been studied. The third is that she doesn't have a soul dementorship like Biyan. Now it's a coincidence
of Spiritualism. Now it happens that he will meet someone like Biyan because of fate, and it doesn't hurt to try it, this set of methods may not work for people like Wei Junmo or even Xingwei, but Nangong Mo thinks that the dead soldiers who can follow Wei Hongfei and let him dispatch should not be at this level.
Biyan took two steps forward and smiled, "Biyan obeys." β
Biyan raised her hand, carrying a white jade bracelet on her wrist, and several delicate and small white jade bells hung on the bracelet. I saw Biyan gently shaking her wrist, and the white jade bell made a crisp and pleasant sound. The entire hall was also silent, and the other two assassins had already been clicked on the acupuncture points and could not move.
Listening to the crisp and soothing sound of the bell, the frowning brows of the assassin on the ground gradually relaxed. The body, which was still trembling slightly, also calmed down.
"Are you still in pain?" Biyan's voice sounded softly, as if with infinite worry and distress.
The assassin closed his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and shook his head slowly.
"That's good." Biyan's face was calm as usual, but his voice seemed to be filled with excitement and joy, and a slender hand gently touched his eyebrows, and tapped, "Fortunately, you're fine, don't be so stupid in the future, there is only one life." He's dead... There's nothing left..."
There is only one life, and I am dead... There was nothing left.
"Sleepy?"
Sleepy. Listening to the slow ringing in his ears, the Assassin thought very sleepily. It was quiet, and he had never felt so comfortable. I'd love to sleep like this bell all the time, like... When he was a child, his mother shook the rattle next to his bed. And that voice, so gentle, so beautiful... Who is she? I... And who?
"Sleep, it'll be fine when you wake up."
"It's going to be fine... Target? The Assassin muttered under his breath.
"Yes, it's okay... Sleep, it's not going to be good. In the future, I will always be with you. "The voice is as soft as water.
The Assassin couldn't help but smile.
"Who brought you here? Why didn't he save you? β
The assassin frowned slightly, his expression struggling a little. Bi Yan's wrist moved, and her voice was a little softer, "Good... Don't be afraid, sue me. I'll protect you. It will never be like this again... Sue sΓΉ me, who is it? β
"It's... It's the guard... Jun..."
"Bump!" A crisp sound of porcelain falling to the ground and shattering sounded in the hall, Bi Yan's body trembled slightly, and his face turned his head to look at the source of the sound with a somewhat ugly face. The teacup in Wei Hongfei's hand somehow fell to the ground in front of him. The porcelain smashed on the marble floor and shattered in an instant, and the tea in the cup was splashed everywhere.
Disturbed by the sudden sound, the assassin opened his eyes suddenly, and a mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth. If it weren't for the fast flash, I was afraid that Biyan would have been sprayed with blood. After vomiting blood, the Assassin's face quickly turned gray, and he took his last breath in a few moments.
"King Jingjiang, what do you mean!" Biyan glared angrily at Wei Hongfei, who had a calm face in front of him, and said angrily. This kind of tortured person who is close to collapse is indeed the most fragile and easy to break through when the mind is true, but because of fragility, it is more necessary to grasp the measure. It's not that she doesn't have more powerful means, but she can't use it at all. Rao was so cautious, but he was still ruined by Wei Hongfei when he was about to ask for the result.
Fortunately, she didn't use more powerful means, so it was just that the assassin who was stimulated had a problem, if she used the most powerful means, then Wei Hongfei would be the one who was afraid of vomiting blood.
Wei Hongfei didn't feel guilty, and said indifferently: "I'm sorry Biyan girl, this king's hand slipped for a while." β
Wei Hongfei is still a county king even if he is no longer treated by King Ning's mansion, Biyan, a woman who doesn't even have a reputation to stay in King Ning's mansion, naturally can't do anything to him, so she has to look at King Ning and hope that King Ning can seek justice for himself.
King Ning looked at Wei Hongfei lightly and asked, "King Jingjiang, what do you mean by this?" β
It was exactly the same question as Bi Yan, but Wei Hongfei definitely couldn't send King Ning away with a talented attitude. So he lowered his eyes slightly, and said very sincerely: "The subordinates are careless for a while, please forgive the prince." However, it seems that the Assassins were not lying, although they were not finished......"
"The King of Jingjiang County doesn't want to say that this assassin just wants to say Wei Junmo, right?" Nangong Mo sneered, and interrupted Wei Hongfei without waiting for her to speak. Wei Hongfei's face was a little unbearable, and he scolded angrily: "Star City County Lord, do you understand etiquette? Interrupt others three times and twice......"
"Flawless is neither Ling Ai nor your daughter-in-law, her etiquette doesn't need outsiders to worry about." Wei Junmo said coldly.
Wei Hongfei's heart was congested, he hated Wei Junmo and didn't want to recognize Wei Junmo as his business. But Wei Junmo's unceremonious drawing of a line with him made him feel very embarrassed.
Nangong Mo also ignored Wei Hongfei's accusation and continued: "It seems that Wei Junmo is not the only one with the words Wei and Jun in his name. What's more... Did the King of Jingjiang County forget that there are still two assassins left? Since the county lord can do it the first time, he doesn't worry about not being able to do it the second time. β
Biyan covered her lips and smiled: "The county lord is right, this kind of thing will only become more and more proficient." Remembering that she wanted to hook up with Wei Gongzi before, although this was what the prince meant, Biyan still felt a chill down her spine. She's just a weak woman who knows how to use secret arts, and she doesn't want to offend this Star City County Lord at all.
Wei Hongfei's face changed slightly, and the remaining two assassins who had watched the whole process couldn't help but look ugly. looked at Wei Hongfei for help, Wei Hongfei naturally couldn't admit it, and turned his head lightly as if nothing had happened. The faces of the two assassins turned even more pale. They didn't understand what had happened to their companions, but they knew they didn't want it to happen to them again.
Wei Hongfei stood up and arched his hand: "Lord Wang, the subordinate suddenly remembered that there was something important to do, so he lost his company first."
I lost my company first. β
King Ning didn't stop him, but just looked at Wei Hongfei deeply and nodded slightly.
Wei Hongfei knew that King Ning had begun to suspect him, and when he saw him so secretly, he breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced at his two sons, and the three of them immediately got up and went out.
Watching Wei Hongfei walk out, Nangong Mo looked at King Ning with a smile and said, "Uncle King Ning, these two, do you still need to continue the trial?" β
"What kind of trial?" King Ning said angrily: "Take this king down and kill it!" From the beginning, he never believed Wei Hongfei.
Nangong Mo didn't care either, and said with a smile: "Guess, what will Wei Hongfei do next?" β
"What? Flee for your life, of course. King Ning said disdainfully. Wei Hongfei must have thought that after he left, they would continue to interrogate the two remaining Assassins. Why don't you take advantage of this time to run for your life? Wei Hongfei didn't know that if King Ning really wanted his life, even if he couldn't find evidence, he wouldn't be able to get out of Xizhou City so easily.
Nangong Mo clapped his hands and smiled: "In this case, we have fulfilled Uncle Ning's request, can we talk about remuneration now?" β
"What requirements?" King Ning pretended to be stupid.
Nangong Mo was speechless, "It's boring for the prince to be like this, you said that you can't hurt Wei Hongfei if you find a way to drive Wei Hongfei away." Now that Wei Hongfei has run away with a weak heart, doesn't it mean that we have fulfilled your conditions? β
"That's his own death, what does it have to do with you?" King Ning rolled his eyes and said.
Nangong Moyi was stern, "Without me, can you pry open the assassin's mouth and scare Wei Hongfei away?" β
King Ning laughed angrily, "Even if you say flowers, this king will not agree to your conditions." Since this king spared Wei Hongfei, he didn't want to tear his face with Xiao Qianye, if he agreed to the third brother's conditions, this king might as well kill Wei Hongfei directly, why bother? "King Ning made up his mind and didn't want to get involved in this war too early.
Wei Junmo lowered his eyes and said indifferently: "I don't need you to assist Yan Wangfu, and I don't need you to choose a position now." β
King Ning raised his eyebrows and looked at Wei Junmo with interest, "Then what are you doing in Xizhou?" Persuade the king to remain neutral? This king didn't plan to meddle in the first place. β
Wei Junmo said indifferently: "Tainingwei borrowed it from me." β
"Tai Ningwei borrowed it from you? Tai Ningwei, who is the king of this king, is a cabbage, can you borrow it casually? King Ning was shocked, and looked Wei Junmo up and down for a long time, as if he was looking at some monster. After a while, he slowly spoke: "What's more, are you stupid to be this king?" What is the difference between borrowing your soldiers and horses to fight with the court and the king himself? What are the benefits of this king? β
Wei Junmo said: "I will not lend me 150,000 troops in the name of Taining Wei, I will give you two taels of silver for each soldier every month, five taels for 100 households, 50 taels for 1,000 households, 500 taels for generals, I will prepare the food and salary myself, and I will compensate for the casualties of the soldiers." With this money, you can continue to expand your army and settle the homeless. I'll help you build a grain route to the south, and you can expand at least another 300,000 troops. β
"You mean?" King Ning touched his chin, obviously a little unusual.
Wei Junmo nodded, "I'll pay cash, this is one million taels." You agree, you can take it now. β
King Ning stared at the cold-faced boy in front of him with the eyes of hatred and wealth, although he was a vassal king and held hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses of Tainingwei. But to be honest, if he deducted the silver deposit from the official treasury of Xizhou, he would not even have to say one million taels himself, and he would have to work hard to even take out 800,000 taels. There is no way, Xizhou is originally located in the middle of nowhere, and the battles have not been much less than Youzhou for many years. He lived a relaxed life on the surface, but it was not easy to raise an army of hundreds of thousands. It's common for me to post some money from time to time. In this matter, presumably his third brother must have a common language with him. But......
"A million taels? The third brother really trusts your nephew enough? But where can you lay it in just three months? "Even if you want to borrow soldiers, it doesn't mean that you will be fine with this million, and the cost of military quarters, salaries, etc., in three months, will not be much less than this million taels. Could it be that the third brother is even richer than him? It's not scientific!
"You don't have to worry about it." Wei Junmo said indifferently: "You only need to choose, agree or disagree?" β
King Ning looked at the silver ticket on the table, and looked at Nangong Mo and Wei Junmo, who looked as usual. I only feel in a dilemma, 150,000 Tai Ningwei, that's the elite in his hands. If he is ruined by Wei Junmo, then he will definitely kill this kid. One million taels, with this million taels, he can expand his army by another 200,000 in minutes. And it's three months! Three months later, if Wei Junmo still wants to use his people, he must continue to give money! The most important thing is that he does not have to be involved in this war at all.
Seeing that he was hesitant, Wei Junmo put away the silver ticket and pulled Nangong Mo and left directly, "It's okay, you can think about it again." β
Looking at the figure of him leaving without hesitation, King Ning gritted his teeth. This kind of thing... Don't you have to think about it, think about it?
