Chapter 258: Leaning on the Danger Fence
Seeing Lord Yin's reaction like this, Yang Muyun could know for sure that the heirloom jade seal in the brocade box had been dropped.
"This girl is really clever," Yang Muyun secretly praised in her heart, glanced at Liu Yun beside her, but saw a different color in her eyes, and said in her heart: "It seems that she didn't expect her personal maid to be so smart!" β
The door slammed open, and several big men in fuchsia suits walked in with a petite and delicate girl. The girl was dressed in green clothes, her pretty face was pale and bloodless, but her eyes showed a trace of stubbornness and unyielding. Sure enough, it was the maid Rong'er beside Liu Yunxi.
Liu Yunxi stood behind Yang Muyun and couldn't see the scene outside, but from the change in his face, he could see who would come in.
"Stinky girl," Lord Yin shouted angrily, and his shrill scream made people sound a little creepy, "You dare to lie to our family and say, where is the jade seal of the country?" β
"Isn't the jade seal in the brocade box?" Rong'er said with a surprised face: "You took it all, why did you still ask me?" β
Lord Yin stared at her, walked around her, and laughed strangely, "Little girl, you still don't know the methods of our East Factory, now our family is asking you, if you don't answer honestly, you will have to suffer at that time." β
"I ...... I'm just a little girl, and everything on my body has been searched by you," Rong'er saw that he was neither yin nor yang, and suddenly felt a little scared in her heart, "I really don't know anything else." β
"It doesn't matter if you don't know," Lord Yin smiled sadly, "You can think about it, I really can't think of it, our family can help you." β
"My lord," Chao Wu glanced at Rong'er, with an obscene smile on her face, "Look at this little girl, she looks really good, I don't know how the clothes are born?" It's better to strip her clothes naked and let her subordinates take a good look. As soon as these words came out, everyone else burst into laughter, and the laughter was full of obscenity.
"Chao Lao Wu," said a man with a long beard, "you can't eat alone, or I won't depend on you." β
"That's it," said another man, "it's not fun just to watch, but if you can touch it well, it will be even more refreshing." β
......
Seeing these vulgar men laughing unbridledly, Rong'er's face turned pale, and she bit her lips tightly, so frightened that she couldn't speak.
"How?" Lord Yin glanced at her playfully, hooked the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "Little girl, my subordinates can't wait, if I throw you to them, hehe...... Can your delicate body like a flower withstand so many men's turns? β
"Hmm......" Liu Yunxi slammed Yang Muyun's body, wanting him to save Rong'er.
"Shhh......h I hope this girl can maneuver around, don't easily anger him, as long as she delays a little longer in the future, it is estimated that she will be able to figure out a way. β
Rong'er panicked for a while, slowly calmed down, glanced at this Lord Yin, and the corners of her lips hooked up with a hint of ridicule, "Did you throw me at these Qiu Ba to prove to them how incompetent you are?" β
Yang Muyun almost laughed out loud behind the statue of "poof", and hurriedly reached out to cover his mouth, seeing that no one outside noticed this, Fang put his mind at ease, and said that this girl's mouth was really like a knife, specifically cutting other people's weaknesses.
Sure enough, Lord Yin was like someone had been stabbed, and pointed at her angrily and said, "What are you talking about, you are so bold that you dare to ridicule our family like this." His face turned red, his features distorted, and his hair seemed to stand on end. Eunuchs, due to their natural physical defects, are afraid that others will say that they cannot face women like a normal man.
Rong'er twisted her face to the side, not even looking at him again.
Lord Yin's triangular eyes narrowed slightly, the muscles on his face couldn't help shaking, and after a while, he let out a strange laugh, "Little girl, it's cheap to throw you to them, don't let you suffer first,
How can we show our means? After speaking, he stared at her small slender feet, raised his eyes and commanded Shan Qi: "Go, bring a pair of red embroidered shoes." β
"My lord, what are you ......," Shan Qi said in surprise.
"The little girl's shoes don't fit well," Lord Yin said gloomily, "Let's change a pair for her." β
"Yes...... But ......"
"But what," Lord Yin's eyes widened, "Don't go yet!" β
"Yes!" Shan Qi was drunk by him and hurriedly ran outside the temple.
Lord Yin looked around for a moment, and his cold gaze silenced everyone.
There was a crisp sound of "clanging", and Shan Qi brought in a pair of shoes made of jet-black pure iron, "My lord......" He looked at Lord Yin with some apprehension.
"Throw it in the campfire and burn it red." Lord Yin said lightly, and then smiled at Rong'er, "Don't look at these shoes as inconspicuous, when they burn red, they will become a pair of beautiful red embroidered shoes, and if you wear them, it will definitely make your feet look better." β
Rong'er's face changed, she closed her eyes tightly, and her petite body trembled slightly.
Red embroidered shoes, the name sounds very beautiful punishment, the creative inspiration comes from the Shang King and Daji invented the cannon burning punishment more than 3,000 years ago, but the thick copper pillar is condensed into a pair of specially manufactured pure iron shoes, the torturer first put the iron shoes into the furnace to burn to bright red, and then use fire tongs to clip out the iron shoes, so that the prisoner is barefoot to put in, the prisoner's feet will be immediately burned to the skin and flesh, instantly painful to lose consciousness, the weaker can die on the spot, Even if you don't die on the spot, you will be disabled for life. This punishment is unbearable for men, let alone women, and some female prisoners faint immediately when they hear about it.
Iron shoes were placed in the campfire, crackling and peeling.
"See," Lord Yin stared at Rong'er's somewhat blue pretty face, and said proudly: "It won't be long before these shoes will be burned red, and then they will be worn on your feet......" He said in a colorful voice, Rong'er's long eyelashes couldn't stop shaking, thinking that he was extremely frightened in his heart. Even the faces of the men in fuchsia suits standing around them turned slightly blue, and it seemed that they were also extremely afraid of this punishment.
"Little girl, our family will give you another chance," Lord Yin asked lightly: "Say, where is the jade seal of the country now?" β
"I really don't know," Rong'er's blue lips moved, "I've been holding this brocade box, and I don't know when the contents were replaced......"
"Looking at the little girl's appearance, it doesn't seem to be fake," Yang Muyun glanced back at Liu Yunxi, "Could it be that the jade seal of the country was hidden by her, and she didn't even tell her personal maid?" β
The corners of Lord Yin's lips curled, and his voice was a little calm, "Our family's patience is limited, and when these shoes are burned red and worn on your feet, it will be too late." You...... You have to think it through. β
"What I said is true...... Rong'er couldn't hold back anymore and cried.
......
Yang Muyun took out the cloth ball stuffed in Liu Yunxi's mouth and asked in a low voice, "Where did you hide that heirloom jade seal?" β
Liu Yunxi took a breath and glanced at Yang Muyun angrily, "I handed it over to Rong'er and helped her lead the pursuers away, can I hide in any other place?" β
"That's weird," Yang Muyun saw her serious look, so he asked again: "Then when you took out the heirloom jade seal at the Yuelong Inn, did you open the brocade box and take a look?" β
"Of course I saw it," Liu Yunxi pondered for a while and said: "At that time, Elder Gao was also by his side, and he looked at it carefully, and there is no doubt that it is indeed the jade seal of the country." β
"Then why was it replaced for no reason?" Yang Muyun felt incredible.
"I can only ask Rong'er, let her think about what happened along the way?"
"I'm afraid you won't have a chance to ask," Yang Muyun frowned, "Later, the person surnamed Yin will be punished, I'm afraid she won't be able to survive...... Hmm" Suddenly felt a pain in his shoulder, almost screamed, glared at Liu Yunxi, still lowered his voice and said, "What are you doing?" It turned out that Liu Yunxi took advantage of his inattention to bite him.
Liu Yunxi
smiled, full of charms, revealing two rows of snow-white braided shells, "Yang Muyun, how about we make a deal?" β
Yang Muyun rubbed the place she had bitten and snorted softly, "What deal?" β
"You let me go, help me rescue Rong'er, and I'll find the jade seal of the country and hand it over to you, how about it?" Liu Yunxi blinked his bright eyes, "This is a great achievement, and the emperor will reward you heavily." β
"Would you be so kind?" Yang Muyun stared at her for a while, then pursed his lips slightly, "I'm afraid you don't know where this heirloom jade seal is now, right?" β
"But I'll help you find it and put it in your hands," Liu Yunxi looked at his disapproving look, and said, "What, you don't believe it?" β
Yang Muyun smiled, didn't speak, his fingers were like the wind, and he clicked a few times on her body, unlocking the sealed acupoint for her.
"I'll rush out first later, attract them out of the temple gate, and then you come out to save people," Yang Muyun glanced out, and then turned to Liu Yunxi and said: "Only the martial arts surnamed Yin in the hall are not weak, I will lead him out first, and it shouldn't be difficult for you to deal with the others, right?" β
Liu Yunxi rubbed his numb hands and feet, and glanced at him resentfully, "That's it, then thank you." β
Yang Muyun smiled and looked outside again.
"You let me go so easily, aren't you afraid that I will break my word?" Liu Yunxi's eyes rolled and whispered in his ear.
"Since the jade seal of the country is no longer on you, why do I keep you?" Yang Muyun said lightly: "I'm not a lackey of a eunuch, I won't torture you like the one surnamed Yin to extract a confession, if you can save that girl, leave here quickly." β
"What about you?" Liu Yunxi asked with concern. As soon as the words came out, he felt a little regretful in his heart, "I asked him what he was doing, he is a member of the court, what does life or death have to do with you?" But I couldn't help but ask.
"Me?" Yang Muyun looked at her and smiled indifferently, "Don't worry, I won't let that person surnamed Yin find out my identity, although his martial arts are high, it's not so easy to catch me." As he spoke, he took out a black scarf and covered his face, and handed the light dew to Liu Yunxi, "If you wear it, you must not be seen by others, otherwise it will not be good for you to walk in the future." When she put on a light dew to cover her face, she gave her broken sword as well, "This is your sword, although it is broken, it is more convenient for you to use it." β
"Thank you," Liu Yunxi took the sword, said softly, and when he saw that he didn't have a blade in his hand, he asked, "You...... Don't you have any weapons? β
"I'm not in the habit of carrying weapons."
"Do you have iron hands too?" Liu Yunxi glanced at him.
"No, but I have a secret hand." Yang Muyun tightened the cuff of his left hand, the quiver that specializes in firing sleeve arrows has been worn there, and it is also completely equipped with six sleeve arrows.
......
The bonfire seemed to burn even brighter, and a pair of iron shoes had been burned red in the tongue of flame. Lord Yin stretched out his hand and grabbed a pair of tongs and shook them in front of Rong'er, "Little girl, you can think about it, if you don't say it, you won't have a chance." β
"I ...... I really don't know. Rong'er said with a sob.
Master Yin stopped looking at her, turned around and walked to the fire, looked at the pair of red-hot iron shoes, pointed with the iron tongs in his hand, and squeezed out a sentence from his mouth, "You say, which one do you want to wear first?" β
At night, the moon has tilted to the west, and a bean candle is lit on the dark official road, which is far away from the starlight in the sky, so fleeting, so far away.
The pantry had not yet closed, and two papier-mΓ’chΓ© lanterns hung at the door, swaying in the night breeze.
It seems that it is already the fourth watch, and there are still guests in the tea shop, and it is extremely rare to come to drink tea at this time.
Feng Wuji is, he sat quietly at a table, holding the knife that had never let go in his left hand, the tea on the table was cold, he didn't look at it, his sharp eyes like a blade stared at the opposite side.
A twelve or thirteen-year-old girl in white sat opposite him, holding a snow-white little fox in her arms, quietly looking at Feng Wuji, and suddenly smiled, like a cunning little fox.
