Time passed day after day, until five days passed, and Liu Kui's torture still had no effect.

In addition to the fact that he didn't really use the big punishment, Cai Shiquan and Shi Wenzhuo's bones were hard enough, which was also the main reason for the slow progress of torture.

As for why the punishment was not really used, it was completely explained by Chen Xiaoting in private.

To put it simply, Chen Xiaoting needs to continue the torture, so that he can keep stirring the nerves of the four major families and let them be on their backs.

In fact, it's not just the four major families, after Cai Shi and the others were arrested, their relatives contacted some people and went to the Governor's Mansion to petition.

This is not uncommon in the Governor's Palace, because in addition to these old men going to petition, more often the poor people will gather here to ask the Governor Wu to seek justice for them.

Wu Guorui has been sitting in the southeast for so many years, and he has a very high status in the eyes of the people.

Originally, Chen Xiaoting thought that this Governor Wu would do something, but in the end, he directly ignored it.

So in the past two days, Chen Xiaoting once again instructed Liu Kui so that he could relax his vigilance

If someone else sets a trap for him, he might as well drill into it, which is quite a bit of a desire to get away with it.

On August 20, when the sun was setting down the hillside, the night was already falling.

After staying in the prison for another whole day, Cai Shi and the others had been tortured very badly, but the two of them kept their mouths tight and still didn't say anything.

"I've been busy for a few days, my lord...... Why don't you go to a big sentence? Liu Kui's subordinate general flag said.

These words were recognized by the others, and they immediately became humane: "I think it is feasible to be humble, Lord Baihu...... If it drags on like this, it will only be a waste of time! ”

Liu Kui stopped and said: "This matter is not as simple as you think, you do your own thing, don't talk too much!" ”

Touching his already hungry stomach, Liu Kui continued: "You have worked hard in the past few days, and I invite you to drink today!" ”

Hearing the word "drinking", although the hearts of everyone present bloomed with joy, there was a humane on their lips: "My lord, go drink now, if Lord Chen knows......"

This is a problem that needs to be worried, since they left the capital until now, they have not drunk a drop of alcohol.

Who knew that Liu Kui didn't care and said: "It's not a big deal, as long as we don't make a noise!" ”

These words came out of Liu Kui's mouth, which made the three people present feel incredible, is this still the old-fashioned and rigorous Lord of the Hundred Households?

Seeing the puzzled looks of his subordinates, Liu Kui smiled rarely: "Don't look at me like this, do you want to go or not?" ”

After all, this is a treat for hundreds of adults, and the three people present have no reason not to go.

"Then thank you for breaking the bank!" One of the flags rubbed his hands and laughed.

"Let's go!" Liu Kui didn't care.

So, the four people who were supposed to have dinner in the Thousand Households and then rest in the Hundred Households were punished, but they went out of the Thousand Households to drink.

The whereabouts of the four of them had been under surveillance, so their unusual behavior was immediately reported.

As the night gradually shrouded, Liu Kui and the four of them did not make the slightest move to return to the office, but it was time to eat in the prison.

Waiting for dinner inside were the prisoners and the captains on duty, although they were both made by the canteen of the Thousand Households, but the food between the two was very different.

The captains on duty have a lot of fish and meat, but the prisoners in the prison can only drink porridge, which is the main reason why the prisoners squat in the prison and lose weight.

One wheeled a large wooden barrel in a cart and slowly passed through each cell, while another captain held a long spoon and filled the bowl with porridge that stretched out of the cell.

"Hello master, the two masters are radiant today, and tomorrow will be auspicious!"

"Greetings to the master, your old man has a lot, so give me half a spoon more!"

Along the way, the two lieutenants listened to a lot of flattering words, and by looking at their expressions, they knew that they were tired of hearing them.

And these prisoners, in order to drink a little more porridge, can be said to have exhausted all means.

As the two lieutenants progressed deeper, fewer and fewer prisoners were held in the cells until they entered the most important cell inside.

At this moment, the person in charge of guarding was a small flag officer, who was drinking and fighting with his lieutenants.

This little flag officer is Liu Kui's subordinate, and today is the first time he is on duty here.

"Lord Xiaoqi, we're here to serve a meal to the prisoners inside, look ......," the captain in charge of serving the meal asked in a low voice.

Hearing this, the little flag officer said impatiently: "If you want to go, hurry up, don't you see that we are busy?" ”

His words surprised the two lieutenants who were in charge of delivering the meal, because usually at this time, he asked the two of them to serve the meal, and then the captain from the capital sent it in.

The little flag officer was so careless, this happened to make the two people who delivered the meal get their wish, and one of them hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, the two of us will do it, don't disturb the interest of the adults!" ”

Immediately, the two of them took out large bowls, filled them separately, and hurried to the inner cell.

And inside, they haven't seen outsiders Cai Shi and the others for five days, and at this moment they have been tortured to the point that they don't look like humans.

Of course, the inhumanity here is only literal, but the skin is open and the flesh is blurred.

It seems that although the injuries are serious, they are actually fine, at least at the moment their ability to think and express is normal.

Hearing the movement outside, Cai Shiquan opened his eyes and looked outside, at this moment he was tied to a cross, and he had been hanging on it for five days.

"Porridge tonight?" Cai Shiquan asked in a deep voice, and there was no sense of panic in his tone.

After entering and coming to Cai Shiquan's body, the captain with the bowl brought the porridge to Cai Shiquan's mouth, and then said, "Master Cai, it's time to eat!" ”

Hearing this, Cai Shiquan, who was about to open his mouth to drink porridge, looked up at the face of the captain in front of him at this moment.

The captain who brought him food in the past few days had never called him that, so what was happening in front of him was very abnormal.

"Let's drink porridge, we don't have too long!" The captain who delivered the meal added, and his voice was very low.

Cai Shiquan understood a lot, so he opened his mouth very cooperatively, and then drank the porridge into his stomach along the edge of the bowl.

It was at this time that I heard the captain say, "A few masters asked me to bring you two sentences!" ”

While drinking porridge, Cai Shiquan listened carefully, and he didn't dare to miss a single word in the middle.

"Several big masters are thinking of a way, and they will do their best to rescue you and Master Shi, you don't have to worry too much!"

From this sentence, Cai Shiquan knew that Shi Wenzhuo was actually arrested, and it seemed that the situation was even worse than he imagined.

"But if the two of you really can't bear the torture, a few big masters hope that the two of you can carry the matter down, and they will save your family!"

If the first sentence brought them hope, then the second sentence pushed them into despair.

If you can't bear it, let yourself take the responsibility, I'm afraid this is the real intention of those people to send people to spread the word!

And the so-called preservation of the family, in turn, can also be understood to mean that his Cai Shiquan's family has been taken hostage.

"Master Cai, it's been a long night, and I still have to drink this porridge!"

But at this time, Cai Shiquan would still have the intention of drinking porridge, so the captain who delivered the meal was not reluctant, and took the rice bowl back from Cai Shiquan's mouth.

"Master Cai, the words have been delivered, you have to think clearly!" After saying this, the captain who delivered the meal turned around and left.

Looking at the back of the other party leaving, Cai Shiquan barely suppressed the anger in his heart, and from this moment on, he knew that he was really in danger.

On the other side of the Thousand Households, Chen Xiaoting, who was about to rest, received news from the prison.

"Moving so fast? These people are really bold, and they dare to stretch their hands into prison at this time! Chen Xiaoting was very dissatisfied.

On the side, it was Niu Jingyun who was on standby, and recently he and his subordinates were in charge of monitoring the major families in Nan'an City.

"My lord, do you want to arrest the two who delivered the food?" Niu Jingyun asked on the side.

"Let Cai Shiquan and Shi Wenzhuo confess these two people first, and then arrest them!" Chen Xiaoting said calmly.
