Chapter 424: Second Exploration of the Tai Temple
Lu Xiaotian rushed back to Ling Mansion with people overnight, the dungeon had already been prepared, and the monk had a black cloth on his head, so he was not worried that he would see through anything.
I thought that Ling Yi would be interrogated immediately, but she didn't even go to the dungeon to take a look, just asked Lu Xiaotian to lock people in, and then locked the cell door with an iron lock, and didn't ask again.
There are often people in retreat in the temple, and some are even closed for several years, and everyone is a person who does not ask about mundane things, and only the fallen leaves can be seen in the eyes of the sweeper, and the stove burner will never glance at the stir-fried vegetables.
In such an environment, even if there is one person missing, everyone feels strange, and habitually thinks that it is a retreat, so the disappearance of the captured monk is not abnormal at all.
Ling Yi's fall was three days, and he only ordered someone to send a steamed bun on the second day, and a bowl of cold water on the third day.
Three days is not a long time, but for a person who is blindfolded and gagged by a lot of flowers, and is still hungry and thirsty, three days is undoubtedly a hellish ordeal, even if he can endure the physical pain, but the fear in his heart will increase infinitely over time.
The kind of loneliness and helplessness that is in the dark, so that the heavens should not be called the earth and the earth, unless the seven emotions and six desires are really abandoned, it can be described as physical and mental torment, and since this monk has been arrested, how can he really be a person without love, hatred, greed and love.
To put it bluntly, he's just a layman.
It was precisely because Ling Yi understood this that he left him alone for three days, which made him frightened by his imaginary fear, so that it would be much easier to ask anything.
In the dark and cold dungeon, because of the various debris accumulated all year round, there is a panicked musty smell, of course, in addition to the musty smell, you can also faintly smell blood.
However, this is not some torture, but the chicken blood and duck blood that Ling Yi specially ordered people to splash, although the monk can't see it, he can smell it, coupled with the strange silence around him, can he not be frightened.
"I'll do this kind of thing, why do you insist on coming down, in case you have a fetal gas, how can it be good." Gong Xiru frowned, and supported Ling Yi nervously with both hands, for fear that she would slip and fall, and she was very worried.
"It's so delicate." Although Ling Yi only smiled slightly, his heart was very sweet, and when he saw that he was about to reach the end of the prison, he made a silent gesture, "You will be judged later, I will not say anything." ”
Gong Xiru was a little relieved, and the group came to the place where the monk was held.
But he said that the monk knew that he was arrested, and he also guessed a rough idea in his heart, afraid that his own deeds were exposed, then he could roughly guess that the person who arrested him must be the one who was against Gong Chengyan.
That's right, in this Taimiao, he is indeed a person with two hearts, these days are a special period, Gong Chengyan agreed with him that he would send someone up the mountain to meet him.
That day, he learned that someone had trespassed on the temple and was injured, although it did not match the agreed time, he still didn't think much about it, thinking that the person who was with him was discovered, and in order to ensure that the matter was not revealed, he ventured to the agreed place.
Unexpectedly, he fell into the trap of these people.
Originally, the monk was determined at the beginning, and he also knew that the person who caught himself was by no means a good stubble, and he must have to get the news if he caught himself, if he really confessed, then there was no way to live.
But in the past three days, the boundless darkness, the quiet weirdness, and the torture of hunger and cold have left little of his firm mind to be polished.
Now I heard the sound of footsteps from far and near, as if the fierce and vicious Rakshasa was approaching step by step, and the frightened monk was almost incontinent, and the gagged mouth could only hum and whine.
The group walked into the prison, and Gong Sheng ordered the people to put all the torture instruments prepared one by one, and there was no sound of people in the whole process, only the crisp collision sound between the instruments could be heard.
Ling Yi sat and watched for a long time, the monk was already trembling with fright, she knew that with Gong Xiru's methods and ruthlessness, even if she didn't use those torture tools in the future, this person would do all the tricks.
Sometimes, psychological torture is easier to make people succumb than physical torture, and the result is not surprising, Gong Xiru coerced and coaxed and deceived the monk, and asked the monk what he knew.
Seeing that the interrogation was over, and the weaving feather weaving fan was already preparing things to go back, Gong Xiru thought that Ling Yi still had something to ask, so she asked her with her eyes, but the latter shook his head and said that he could leave.
Leaving the dungeon, Gong Xiru asked Ling Yidao, "I see that you obviously had doubts just now, why didn't you ask?" ”
"If asked, he won't say." Ling Yi shrugged his shoulders and said with great certainty: "In the face of the double oppression of body and mind, he has said everything he should have said, but you and I can see that he is still hiding something, but what is it that makes him not even afraid of death?" In the face of invisible torture, still won't compromise? ”
Gong Xiru nodded and analyzed: "There must be someone or something in his heart that he cares about very much." ”
Ling Yi agreed, and called Lu Xiaotian to him again, asking the latter to go up Ruishan again.
"This monk must have someone he is friends with on weekdays, so you can inquire and see who he cares about the most on weekdays, or on the contrary, who he dislikes the most."
Lu Xiaotian's eyes lit up, and he snapped his fingers and said: "This is a good idea, I like to dig out the details of people the most, I want to see what this monk is hiding." ”
He is a person who says he moves, although it is late at night, he still goes straight to Ruishan without saying a word, but this time he is ready first, and he disguises himself as a monk and blends into the Taimiao.
The last time he came, he deliberately led a few old guys to come forward to make a move, and only then did he leak his breath, but this time he was extremely careful, and he didn't leak any breath, and he went all the way to the house where the monk lived.
Fortunately, these monks have their own independent rooms, and Lu Xiaotian went to bed with a big smile, and fell asleep in a moment.
On the second day, he woke up as soon as the rooster crowed, wiped his face neatly, and then went out to recite the morning mentra refreshingly.
I thought that there would be many people on the road, but I didn't expect that all the way to the hall, no one asked, at most he nodded slightly, Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but suspect that what he saw was a group of walking dead.
The chanting lasted for an hour, and it was easy to wait until the end, Lu Xiaotian almost left the hall as if he was fleeing, but someone behind him suddenly shouted: "Jiyuan, where did these **** go?" ”
Lu Xiaotian turned around, imitated the monk's expression and said, "There are some things that I don't understand, so I have been facing the wall for a few days." ”
Coming was an ordinary-looking monk, Lu Xiaotian knew in his heart that among so many people, only this person asked himself, and he seemed to be quite familiar with himself when he heard the tone, so this should be the best person. (To be continued.) )
