The catharsis of hysteria is followed by physical and mental exhaustion. ◢ with ◢ dream ◢ small ◢ .lā

And this exhaustion has become the last straw that pressed the camel.

In a trance, Shopkeeper Wu didn't even remember when he started confessing, only vaguely remembered that he had answered many tricky and strange questions, and almost without reservation!

It wasn't until Sun Shaozong reappeared and picked up the confession full of petty letters that the shopkeeper Wu woke up from his state of being unguarded and cast a resentful look at him.

But it's just a sight.

The courage to regard death as if it were home and angrily denounce the thief chief had already been kneaded in the palm of his hand with that confession.

However, Sun Shaozong read the confession three times and confirmed that most of the links could echo each other, so he shifted his gaze to Shopkeeper Wu, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Wu, you ......"

"Your Excellency."

At this moment, Yang Licai's voice happened to sound outside the door: "Please take a step to speak." ”

Sun Shaozong subconsciously stopped talking, but he didn't mean to go out, but instead raised his voice and ordered: "Shopkeeper Wu has now returned to the imperial court, and if you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Yang Licai came in with the curtain, first glanced at the shopkeeper Wu strangely, and then bowed down and said: "Humble and incompetent, the Xu family still refuses to let go until now." ”

Still refusing to let go?!

With just a few words, Shopkeeper Wu seemed to have been beaten with a stick, and he seemed to have caught something in his numbness and soreness, but he couldn't grasp the key point, and couldn't help but ask in a dumb voice: "My lady...... My lady ...... her."

Halfway through the words, he didn't know what to ask, or he didn't dare to ask.

"Shopkeeper Wu is really a great blessing!"

At this time, I saw Sun Shaozong pick up the thumb brother, and praised sincerely: "How many women like this woman who don't let her eyebrows be shaved in the world?" ”

Eating his praise, the shopkeeper Wu only felt tightness in his chest and shortness of breath, as if he was pressing a thousand catties of boulder on his body, and finally squeezed out a question from between his teeth: "You...... You mean to say that my lady doesn't have ...... No confession?! ”

"Exactly."

"Yes...... But she was in the cellar...... Obviously ......"

"That's what you say."

Sun Shaozong spread his hands: "It was the person I ordered to go down to investigate, once I found that the two of you and my wife couldn't hold on, they would secretly make some movements-who would think that your husband and wife would have a disagreement because of this." ”

Damn it!

What a damn one!

I actually fell for the evil of this traitor!

Shopkeeper Wu was already extremely remorseful in his heart, but he couldn't help but continue to question: "But I obviously saw ...... in this room."

"Are you sure you see clearly?"

Sun Shaozong sneered: "I deliberately asked her to put the oil lamp in front of your eyes, just to dazzle your eyes, otherwise, you should at least find that the woman's buttocks are a little more shriveled than Mrs. Zun." ”

At this time, the shopkeeper Wu couldn't even deceive himself, and the stuffy breath in his chest jumped straight to the Baihui acupoint, not to mention the red head and swollen face, and even the pupils were covered with a layer of blood.

Just listen to him open his mouth, 'You...... You...... You're screaming three times, and suddenly a mouthful of old blood is about to spurt out, and your head is tilted and there is no movement!

Seeing this, Sun Shaozong hurriedly reached out and tried his carotid artery to confirm that he had just fainted, and then he breathed a sigh of relief - he took the initiative to expose the truth, but not to make this guy angry.

"Your Excellency."

As soon as he ordered his subordinates to go down and fetch some well water, so as to wake up the shopkeeper Wu, Yang Licai on the side asked with a needle: "Your kind of methods are really admirable to the lowly position, but there is one more thing, and the lowly position can't figure it out." ”

"The wounds on the wrists of the two of them stopped without much blood dropping, no matter how frightened by the sound of that drop of water, it won't be like a serious illness in just two or three hours, right?"

Sun Shaozong replied casually: "Half is scared, half is stuffy." ”

"Stuffy?"

"That's right."

Sun Shaozong also didn't want to give him popular science, saying that the gas emitted during the decay of vegetables would cause the vegetable cellar to be particularly prone to hypoxia symptoms.

Therefore, I had to explain as roughly as possible: "The vegetable cellar is already stuffy, and ordinary people will be dizzy and short of breath if they stay in it for a long time, not to mention that they are already afraid and struggle desperately for a while?" ”

To put it bluntly, the so-called blood dripping experiment is just a deliberate pretense to aggravate the fear of the shopkeeper Wu and his wife - being suffocated to death or something, how can he listen to the horror of his own blood and death?

Yang Licai listened to it and seemed to understand, and wanted to ask what was going on, but the little colonel who had been ordered to fetch water had already rushed back, and he couldn't help but say something, and poured half a bucket of water on the head of Wu's shopkeeper.

"Whew...... Poof......"

Shopkeeper Wu snorted, then took a breath, and then sprayed some water out.

The blank gaze turned around on everyone's faces, and the sloppy focus gradually fixed on Sun Shaozong's face, radiating negative emotions such as remorse, resentment, and fear.

Seeing that he was already in the brain of seven emotions, Sun Shaozong suddenly sighed and said helplessly: "Shopkeeper Wu, if you think that I told the truth just to humiliate you, then it is really in vain to waste my own hard work." ”

A lot of hard work?

Bah!

If it weren't for being helped by chains and stuffing a ball in his mouth, Shopkeeper Wu would definitely have pounced on him and bitten him a few times to vent his hatred!

Sun Shaozong didn't point to him that he could believe it, and shook the confession in his hand again, and continued: "Now you are free of life, but if Mrs. Zun continues to be stubborn, she will give her life in vain—at that time, the two of you, won't you and your wife be separated forever?" ”

"Why don't you go to Haosheng and persuade Mrs. Zun, let her serve the court with you, and this official will also count you as a guilty meritorious service, how about it?"

"It's not just Mrs. Zun, if in the next process of arresting Bailian's traitorous party, you and your wife can make some more contributions, not only can the capital crime be avoided, but there is also a future of seven or eight grades."

"At that time, you will enjoy the wealth and glory, and you can also call me a lord and an adult in front of people, isn't it a hundred times stronger than you are hiding your head and showing your tail and being frightened now?"

Speaking of which, seeing that the shopkeeper Wu had loosened a little, Sun Shaozong hurriedly took advantage of the situation to offer the last killer feature.

I saw that he patted the ink Jiao swallowing cloud robe of the little colonel next to him, and said seriously: "If you don't have this official robe to protect you, even if this official firmly believes that your heart is towards the court, the brothers below may not all have this knowledge." ”

"If there is one who doesn't open his eyes and is rude to Shopkeeper Wu or Mrs. Zun, won't he live up to your righteous act of abandoning the darkness and turning to the light today?"

"Please also ask Shopkeeper Wu to think twice."

After all this coercion and temptation, Sun Shaozong didn't stay long, and ordered the two dragon guards to help the shopkeeper Wu shackle away, and then led Yang Licai away.

And this walk, half a step into the stable in the front yard.

Seeing that Sun Shaozong turned over and got on the mount, Yang Licai was also busy untying the reins, but Sun Shaozong glanced back at him, but ordered: "You stay here." ”

When Yang Licai heard this, he thought that he wanted to invite merit alone, but although he was slandered in his heart, he had to obey his fate.

Sun Shaozong turned his horse's head around and ordered: "Call the people who arrested the shopkeeper Wu and his wife in the afternoon, and remember to let them bring the blades they have in hand." ”

After a pause, he remembered that there were still a few women inside, and he hurriedly added: "Forget about those who pretend to be maids." ”

When Yang Licai heard this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and asked cautiously: "My lord, aren't you going to report to the appeased lord?" ”

"Of course not."

"But didn't Lord Zhenfu have an explanation, so that we can spread it at any time?!"

Yang Licai was suddenly anxious, this disobedience and disobedience is a taboo in the army, and in a spy agency like the Dragon Guard, it is even more criminal!

Sun Shaozong bent down, took off the golden wire ring knife from the victory hook, and quickly pulled a few knife flowers on the horse, seeing that this old man who had not met for a long time did not feel unfamiliar in his hand, so he hung back with satisfaction.

After trying the knife, he turned back to Yang Licai and said: "There is a way to disobey the life of the king outside, not to mention that you should also know that the last action was sabotaged by the traitor, how can you repeat the mistakes of the past now?" ”

"If the pacification envoy is to blame, he will have his own official to bear it! And if everything goes well, your credit is indispensable! ”

Speaking of this, his face suddenly sank, and he said: "But if someone here dares to leave his post without permission after I leave, I will have to invite all of you to go to the water prison!" ”

Yang Licai saw that Sun Shaozong was so resolute, and promised that the benefits would be evenly distributed, and the black pot would be alone, so he naturally didn't dare to persuade him again.

As if he was busy flying, he summoned a few plainclothes spies - in fact, after excluding those women, there were only six people in total.

When these six people stepped forward to salute, Sun Shaozong suddenly took the reins and stood up the person with the horse under the crotch, and the horse's hooves kicked half a circle in front of everyone before it hit the ground again.

"It's okay, it's all some seeds."

Seeing that none of the six people showed a look of fright, Sun Shaozong nodded with satisfaction and said, "Lao Tzu summoned you in the middle of the night, not for anything else, but to take you to fight for a splash of wealth!" ”

"This official has now ascertained that the White Lotus Sect has sent six people to the capital, and there are six Shan Xiang Masters, the leader who is responsible for leading the team, and the deputy sect leader above 10,000 people under one person!"

"As long as you take down this gang of lawless thieves, I will ensure that all of you can be promoted to the rank of knight!"

In fact, before learning that the leader of the team this time was the deputy sect leader of the White Lotus Sect, Sun Shaozong had never thought of acting arbitrarily.

But when he heard that it was such a big fish, Sun Shaozong moved his mind.

Since the case of the crown prince, Sun Shaozong has taken the lead, and the calming envoy Lu Hui has obviously praised him, but secretly revealed some vigilance and rejection, and he will no longer live up to the previous reuse.

And Sun Shaozong has been thinking about it these days, and he probably understands his thoughts.

Lu Hui looked strong and strong, in fact, he was already over half a hundred years old, and the errand of Beizhen Fusi Zhenfu would be carried for another seven or eight years at most, and I am afraid that it should be at the point.

Therefore, when he faced Sun Shaozong at first, he was quite caring for his elders, and even wanted to train Sun Shaozong to be his successor.

But the problem is that Sun Shaozong's growth speed far exceeded his expectations!

It's only been half a year's work, and the accumulated merit has been promoted to the fourth grade - this is still a lot of credit, and the result of no reward is pressed.

You know, the pacification envoy is just a positive fourth grade!

According to this momentum, I am afraid that it will not take three or two years for Sun Shaozong to threaten Lu Hui's throne of pacification.

That's why he has recently changed his strategy, from being close to him to being vigilant, or even suppressing - otherwise, the errand of the first hunt for the White Lotus Sect should be handed over to Sun Shaozong.

In view of this, how could Sun Shaozong give up this God-given credit?

As for disobedience......

Not to mention that Sun Shaozong now has the support of the crown prince, and the real helmsman of Beizhen Fusi, Father-in-law Dai, is also very fond of him.

At that time, as long as he has made a contribution, how dare Lu Hui take him?

Besides, Sun Shaozong's main functions and powers are still within the civil official system, if he really tears his face completely, it is a big deal to scatter in the future, and no longer get involved in the errand of Beizhen Fusi.

Without further ado.

But it is said that the leader of the six people is just a seven-grade general flag, if he can make such a splashing achievement, what is it to protect a hundred households from the six-grade test?

It is not known if it will be directly promoted by two levels!

Therefore, after listening to Sun Shaozong's promise, the six people were all excited, and they all screamed at the moment, expressing their willingness to die for the thousands of households.

But I heard Sun Shaozong say again: "I naturally hope that the big guys can come back alive to be promoted and make a fortune - in order to avoid leaking the news, there are only seven of you and me tonight, but there are more than 20 of the White Lotus Yu Party, and most of them are good hands in the green forest, if you don't want to take risks with this official, it's still too late to quit now." ”

As soon as I heard that there were more than 20 good players on the opposite side, but there were only seven people on my side, and the dragon guards, who had always been accustomed to bullying more and less, I was a little apprehensive.

It's just that he just made a fuss about 'serving death', who has the face to shrink back at this time?

Suddenly, one of the small flags suddenly raised his head and said loudly: "I am willing to go to the soup with the adults!" ”

This one person took the lead, whether he was willing or unwilling, and he was also busy and said respectfully: "I am willing to go to the soup with the adult!" ”

"Good, good, good!"

Sun Shaozong shouted three times in a row, and said with a smile: "But if it is said that it is going to the soup to fight the fire, it is not enough, no matter how powerful the thieves of the White Lotus Sect are, can they still withstand the officers and soldiers with firearms and strong bows and crossbows?" ”

"Don't you forget, when this official was in Jinmen Mansion, he killed more than 100 rebels alone-now with you and others helping from the side, there are only 20 thieves, what's the big deal?!"

When they heard this, their faith was greatly increased.

"Get on the horse!"

With Sun Shaozong's order, the six of them hurriedly looked for their own mounts.

Seeing that the small flag was grabbed in the head again, Sun Shaozong couldn't help but feel a little sorry for his talents, so he specifically asked the name and surname of the small flag.

The little flag arched his hand on the horse, and said heroically: "The lowly Wang Zhen is a native of Ulzhou, Hebei, if the lowly is dead today, please send the bones of the lowly back to his hometown and be buried with his parents." ”

I'll go!

Ulzhou Wang Zhen?!

Sun Shaozong was really shocked by this name, and almost blurted out a question: Aren't you a eunuch? How did you get into the Dragon Guard?!
