Chapter 135: Execution
At this time, Zimo happened to see this scene, and he used a hidden weapon to knock down the knife in Mu Zijiang's hand, and the hidden weapon was extremely fast, not only shooting down the knife, but also injuring Mu Zijiang's hand.
"Who?" Mu Zijiang looked at the exterior wall of the East Garden, but he didn't see anyone.
"Search for me, I don't believe I can't find my comrades?" Mu Zijiang said angrily.
Linglong also felt strange, who was the person who saved her just now?
The forbidden army in the palace searched the Linglong dormitory, but found no one.
Mu Zijiang was even more angry at this time: "Escort her to me, I don't believe that I can't wait for these comrades to appear." ”
Linglong was captured by Mu Zijiang and locked up in a dungeon in the Hou Mansion, but he didn't expect that there was such a dungeon in the Hou Mansion.
Mu Zijiang sat in the dungeon, ready to interrogate her.
The air in the dungeon is humid, and there is a strong stench of stench where there is no sunlight all year round, and there is a smell of rotting corpses that have killed people here.
The light inside the dungeon was dim, and the faint candle flame was not enough to illuminate everyone's expressions. Mu Zijiang stretched his face in front of the candle flame, and through the faint candle flame, his eyes widened, and he looked at Linglong with a strange look.
Then he laughed inexplicably, and took a strange deep breath.
"Didn't expect that, did you? You'll end up in my hands. Mu Zijiang leaned closer to Linglong and said.
Linglong did not answer Mu Zijiang's words, but looked at him with a very disdainful look.
Mu Zijiang looked at Linglong, walked a few steps beside her, and said with a sinister look: "But it's no wonder? A female assassin who looks like a little sheep is the most unexpected, you say that if Hou Ye knew, what would he do with you? ”
"I want to see Master Hou." Linglong really couldn't stand Mu Zijiang's disgusting questioning.
Mu Zijiang shook his head: "Uh-huh...... You can't see him, and I won't let you see him. After speaking, he let out a grim smile. Hehe......
"You keep saying that you have evidence, but you take it out." Linglong was very calm.
Hehe...... Mu Zijiang smiled again: "Don't worry, this game has just begun." ”
"Mu Zijiang, let me go if you know each other, otherwise ......" Before Linglong's words were finished, Mu Zijiang interrupted her.
"Otherwise...... What do you think? Do you think that if Hou Ye knew that you were the female assassin who had been lurking by his side, would he be surprised? After Mu Zijiang finished speaking, he glanced at his subordinates.
They brought a few basins of cold water and poured those buckets of water on Linglong's body, so that the cold weather was drenched with cold water, and after a while, the cold breath went straight into Linglong's body.
Linglong gasped heavily, closing her eyes to accept all this.
"If you do it obediently, I'll leave you a whole corpse." Mu Zijiang waved the whip in his hand and slowly walked towards Linglong.
"You dare?" Linglong glared at Mu Zijiang with a disgusted look.
Mu Zijiang suddenly became angry, he swung his whip and hit Linglong hard, once, twice, three times...... After more than a dozen whips, red blood spilled from the corners of Linglong's mouth, but at this moment, she still didn't reveal half a point.
Linglong lay on the ground, no longer had any strength. At this time, Mu Zijiang's men ran in.
"My lord, there is something wrong outside." The subordinate bowed his head and reported.
Mu Zijiang twisted his head, and then laughed in a low voice, the kind of laughter that even his subordinates felt terrified when they saw it.
Then Mu Zijiang threw down the whip in his hand: "Go out and have a look." ”
In the cold and dark dungeon, only Mu Zijiang's two subordinates and Linglong lying on the ground were left at this time.
Mu Zijiang ran out of the dungeon in the mansion and inspected the Hou mansion, but he still didn't see anyone?
"Are you sure there was a man in black flying by the edge of the bamboo forest in the courtyard just now?" Mu Zijiang asked his subordinates.
"It was just now!" The subordinate bowed his head and replied.
Mu Zijiang looked at this bamboo forest and didn't find anything unusual here. Not even a trace was left on the ground.
At this time, the subordinates in the house ran over: "Master Mu, Master Hou is awake, let you go." ”
Mu Zijiang was very surprised, why did Master Hou wake up so quickly, and he originally wanted to teach Linglong a good lesson.
Mu Zijiang could only go to the Hou Ye's room.
After entering, Hou Ye already knew that Mu Zijiang had locked Linglong in the dungeon. But there is no direct evidence that she is meticulous. So......
For the sake of face, Mu Zijiang did not dare to openly disobey Lord Hou's order, so he could only let Linglong go, but Mu Zijiang was very unwilling at this time, and a big fish that was about to bite the hook ran away, and he believed that there would be ghosts in it.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for a woman to make such a big move.
That night, Linglong came out of the dungeon, she knew that Hou Ye woke up and saved herself, but she still didn't understand something, who was the black-clothed man who appeared in the Hou Mansion at night, and the hidden weapon he used didn't look like a person sent by the general.
Linglong returned to her dormitory, and at this time she could relax, and the experience of such a thing just now made her heart even more uneasy.
She sat on the desk and suddenly found a small note on the table, and Linglong walked over and closed the window of the dormitory before she dared to open the note to take a look.
The above turned out to be the task assigned to him by the general, and after reading it, Linglong felt his scalp tingle.
Originally, Mu Zijiang had been staring at himself to death during this time, but now the general has assigned a new task to himself.
But the tasks assigned by the general could not but be carried out.
Linglong has been in the Hou Mansion for more than two months, and she knows the Hou Ye's daily itinerary and work and rest time very well, as long as the Hou Ye is not in the mansion, then she can start to find the document that the general wants.
