Chapter 0136 - Heart-Attacking Law Interrogation
"Gu Yang, are you sure that the Ba family transport team is under the management of Li Xian and Ba Xingxiao?" Yun Xiaoshui asked in surprise.
"Young Master! Subordinates are confirmed! I didn't believe it at first, so I went to investigate it again. It was they who played the banner of transporting herbs in our 'Divine Herb Hall', got two bags of herbs on top, and the bottom was dansha, just shouting all the way to pass, and the road was very smooth, nothing happened! ”
"Master Guo! The subordinates also probed out and said that they had been insisting on this form of transportation for several months. The idea was from Master Li Xian and Young Master Li! ”
"Okay, you Li Xian! Thanks to you and I, we're still friends! Are you a fox or a fake tiger, or are you borrowing a knife to kill someone? That's a puzzling idea, isn't it? In terms of power, who doesn't know about your Ba family, and who dares to move? Is it necessary to borrow our name? ”
Yun Xiaoshui was thinking about it, when Narcissus came over and said to him, "Husband! There's something strange here! Don't look at Li Xian and his wife pretending to be in our name, in fact, they, including their entire Ba family, have nothing to do with the transport team that killed us. The impostor is because the herbs are not valuable, and people can see that only some herbs are being transported, without formulas, and a few packets of herbs are worthless, so no one has the idea of robbing. Don't look at Li Xian thinking of borrowing herbs in the name of transporting herbs, he may not know that the 'Divine Spirit Herb Hall' is your business! The slave suspects that this is a remnant of the rebels, and they have come to take revenge on you, husband! ”
Yun Xiaoshui was about to tell Narcissus that he suspected that someone in the court had raised a killer and came to target him. However, another thought was afraid of scaring this group of wives and concubines, so Yun Xiaoshui didn't say anything.
Jingda's men came to report. The newly formed waterway transport team, the first mission, twenty people and two teams, one bright and one dark, escorted a boatload of herbs to Huiji County. When they walked to a small port at night on the way, they encountered a killer, and they probably killed the gangsters of the original convoy, because they were very familiar with the operating procedures, and they were familiar with the number of escorts and the cargo in the ship. It's just that what they didn't know was that this time there were twice as many guards, and the ten teams that were secretly protecting were on another boat, which was a passenger ship, right next to the ship carrying herbs.
As soon as the robbers moved, ten people from there rushed in. With twice the strength, the robbers panicked and tried to escape, but they were shot by a burst of darts and short crossbows, leaving four people behind, two dead and two wounded. When one of the two injured wanted to commit suicide, he was impaled in the palm of his hand by a quick-eyed squad leader, and then tied up the two injured robbers and then helped them to treat the wound.
"How many ran away?" Yun Xiaoshui still asked casually.
"I don't know too well, it's about five, and the sound of entering the water heard by my subordinates is five, and it's impossible to escape from other ways!"
"Water thieves?"
"I can't say! Anyway, these robbers are very water-based! ”
When interrogating the two injured robbers, Yun Xiaoshui did not listen to the persuasion of his subordinates and handed them over to the special personnel in the imperial court, but adopted the "psychological attack method" invented by himself for interrogation. He did not wait for the interrogation room in the lobby, but casually brought two robbers whose injuries had improved to the remote suburbs.
Yun Xiaoshui deliberately looked at the two robbers impatiently and said: "This is outside the capital, and this official brought you out just to tell you that he told you about his accomplices and masters and their possible residences, so he let you go and no longer pursue your great crimes." Don't say it, cut it immediately! It doesn't matter if the official wants your confession or not, it doesn't matter! Just to see if you have reformed your mind! If you have, you will live; If you don't, you have to die! ”
After speaking, Yun Xiaoshui pretended to look at them with disdain, and one of them just raised his head and said: "I don't know ......" and didn't even say the word "Dao", and his head was in a different place with a "bang". This sword came out of Yun Xiaoshui, and it didn't pull it hard to smear the man's neck.
"Giggle...... This is the little husband is really angry! Otherwise, he won't kill people with his own sword, and he will be beheaded directly, majestic! Yu Mingzhu on the side saw that Yun Xiaoshui could also kill people, and he was quite neat, and cheered happily.
"Say no? Say what you know right away! I'll keep you alive! If you don't say it, you will die immediately! ”
The robber, who was so frightened that his lips trembled, poured out all the information he knew.
The mastermind behind the scenes and the internal response to collusion with them that person said really made Yun Xiaoshui's backbone chill. The leader of the robbers is the unqualified officer Si Liesi Lieutenant who was cleared during the reform of the military system, in fact, he is an opportunist, he can't lift a pen, he can't draw a bow, but he has a good skin, and he was born like a starling's clever mouth, after recognizing Zhao Gao as his father-in-law, he went straight to the top, but he was incompetent but he actually went to the position of captain, and the captain was not small in the military system of the Qin Dynasty, larger than the military candidate, only less than the general, that is, a high-level officer who was one level younger than the commander.
After Si Lie was cleared, he held a grudge. He didn't find the reason from himself, it was a fluke that he was so speculative, and he didn't get killed, but he thought that it was not his fault. He hated the prince Fusu, hated the reform advocate Yun Xiaoshui, hated his tendons, peeled his skin, and ate meat and drank blood. He couldn't do anything with the prince, so he set his sights on Yun Xiaoshui. Staring at Yun Xiaoshui, he didn't dare to assassinate him, because he couldn't do it himself, he didn't have martial arts, and he didn't have so much money to hire someone. So he gathered some robbers, strongmen, roosters, dogs, and thieves to rob Yun Xiaoshui's herbs.
When he didn't figure out the way, Si Lie accidentally found the thin monkey who was one of Yun Xiaoshui's "flower friends" when he was a child, the one named Monkey, and now he is also a young man in his 20s.
It turned out that after Yun Xiaoshui's fiefdoms of Laiwu, Mengyin and Yiyuan were taken back by the first emperor, Yun Xiaoshui did not think of monkeys, big bears and sick chickens when he withdrew his cronies and subordinates. Later, when Fang Bufang left, he didn't care about them, and left the three of them behind. The three of them were naturally annoyed and helpless, although they each had a job to do, but their habits of leisure and hard work had not been changed. As a result, life became more and more difficult, and he was almost so poor that he begged for food. This led the monkey astray and became a robber under Si Lie's men. With his understanding of Yun Xiaoshui, he also came up with a lot of bad ideas for Si Lie, but it didn't work out.
Robbing herbs was also the monkey's idea, he thought that he could receive the gold and silver that Yun Xiaoshui sold medicine, but after he killed ten transport team members by poisoning, he didn't get the gold and silver, only got a boatload of herbs. None of them knew herbs, and they didn't know what was precious or not. I don't understand it at all, I don't know it, how can I dare to believe in the therapeutic effect of herbs? So they all thought it was worthless and useless, so they took it and swaggered, so they set it on fire. Only straw bales like Si Lie and Monkey can do such a thing!
These two straw bales actually participated in the battle of entering the ship with poison and fighting with the transport team for the second time, and when the second team of reinforcements arrived, they were able to escape again, even if these two straw bales were still a little lucky, this time they couldn't let the two of them survive anyway!
"Are you sure that the six people who escaped may all be hiding in the army of the capital camp?" Yun Xiaoshui stared at the robber and asked.
