PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!

In the room, a man sat on a wooden barrel, tied tightly, and in front of him was a trumpet-shaped lampshade rolled up in paper, and a large candle was lit in the middle, and the rest of the room was dark except for the light of the candle.

The man's eyes were so sleepy that his eyelids kept fighting, but his eyelids were held up by something and couldn't be closed, and he felt so tired that he couldn't sleep, so he could only watch the bright candlelight in front of him.

He didn't know how long it had been, but he knew that he had suffered a lot since he was caught and brought here, and he had to withstand the torture that made people constantly on the verge of suffocation, and he thought that the next punishment would be even more cruel, but he never thought that it would be a boiling eagle.

The nobles on the grassland like to train eagles to hunt, and there are two sources of eagles: the first is to go to the eagle's nest to dig out bird eggs and hatch them by themselves, and the second is to catch wild eagles and domesticate them, and the process is called boiling eagles.

It was a contest between man and the eagle's will, so that the eagle could not eat or drink, could not rest, and stayed up for several days to make it succumb. He has done this work, which is an ancestral ability, and no eagle has ever been able to survive him, so he doesn't think the other party can succeed.

However, now he found that he could not stand it anymore, the other party forcibly poured him rice soup, so he could not starve to death, and the wooden barrel he was sitting on was for him to drown a few times, and it was to be consumed for a long time, and the room was closed with thick curtains, and the people behind the lampshade did not say a word, and he only heard the sound of his own breathing.

It was too quiet, he couldn't stand it anymore, and with the great tiredness and the limit of his patience. I thought about chewing my tongue and killing myself, but there was something in my mouth that made him drink rice porridge, but he couldn't close his mouth.

"Lotus, lotus" howled a few times. He said that he gave in and wanted the other party to question, and at that time, after the object in his mouth was taken away, he chewed his tongue and killed himself, which was also a relief. However, the other party did not move at all, as if he did not hear.

Because of the candle shining on him, he couldn't see the movement of the 'eagle' behind the lampshade, and after howling for a while, he actually heard the other side start snoring, listening to the sound of snoring, his fatigue became more and more difficult to suppress, but he still couldn't close his eyes.

He had never been so sleepy when he boiled the eagle, he was not hungry and could go out at will, it seemed that the other party was very patient to consume it like this, but the anxiety in his heart became more and more, and he began to recall the luxury of falling asleep sweetly.

It's like a person who is so thirsty that he can drink it all in one bowl of mud in front of him, and now he begins to long to close his eyes, even if it is to count the hours, and then chew his tongue and kill himself.

The snoring sound pierced people's hearts like thunder, he really couldn't hold on, he howled hard, but he couldn't wake the other party up, so I don't know how long it took for him to finally hear the other party speak when he was about to collapse.

"What? Want to be complimentary? ”

One of them poked his head out from behind the lampshade, glanced at it, and sat back again, as if it wasn't going to be a gong. He howled for a long time to make the other party understand that this was to be subdued.

"The steward is not available, you continue to consume!"

The other party dropped a sentence and stopped moving, and after a while, there was a snoring again, he was so anxious that he couldn't stop howling, but the other party didn't respond, so he could only twist desperately and struggle, hitting the tub with his heels.

However, no matter how much he tossed the other party, he was snoring, seeing this situation, he couldn't stand it anymore, if the other party kept asking him, he could lift his spirit, but now the other party didn't care at all.

They didn't want to ask for anything, they wanted to torture me, yes, they wanted to torture me!

As soon as this thought opened, he could no longer calm down, and the more he thought about it, the more desperate he became, he felt that he was an eagle that had been boiled, and the other party seemed to care whether he died or not: forget it if he died.

He didn't have the courage to do it anymore, he just wanted to give in and let the other party take what was in his mouth and then chew his tongue and kill himself, just tossing like this, I don't know how long, suddenly a person walked in next to him. He thought that the other party was here to interrogate, but he didn't think that it was just a shift change, and he dropped a sentence:

"The steward is not available, you continue to consume!"

Seeing that he couldn't beg for death, he struggled to howl and weep. Seeing this kind of appearance, the other side asked if he wanted to explain, and when he heard this, he nodded gratefully, and waited for him to go out for an unknown amount of time before bringing someone in.

"You're going to recruit?" The man yawned and asked, and when he saw him nodding, he brought a pen and paper: "Okay, if I ask you if you don't think you can say clearly, you will nod your head, if you don't, you will shake your head." ”

When he heard this, his heart was half cold: if he didn't take off the things in his mouth, where could he kill himself by chewing his tongue!

"Don't say? Don't say you fuck me up!! Seeing his hesitation, the man changed his face and scolded, slapped the pen and paper in his hand on the case and walked out, "You!" ”

"He, he!!" He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and nodded desperately to express his willingness to speak, but the man sat down and picked up the pen and paper again when he saw this: "Why bother? Say no and be done! ”

"I ask you to answer, if you feel that you can't say clearly, you will nod your head, if you don't, you will shake your head!"

He nodded gratefully, and now he doesn't want to chew his tongue and kill himself, he just asks the other party to give him a happy one after confessing, and he can't care so much about what is secret or not.

"Gender, male or female!"

"Name, and your mother's surname."

"How much is your monthly income, what are you crying about!!" ……

In the arrow hall in the front yard, Yu Wenwen watched the guards practice arrows while looking at the confession that had just been sent, and none of the thieves who fell into his 'clutches' could keep their mouths shut under the service of the 'torture experts'.

Those people were indeed sent by Yang Jian, the primary goal was to get rid of Yu Wenwen, and the second goal was to save people once it was found that Widow Yang in the house was the 'person to be found', and according to the mutual corroboration of several people's confessions, it can be seen that Yang Lihua and Anu in his side room had no idea about their arrival, and the other party still went to great lengths in order to get on the line with Anu until the day of arrest, which was the first contact.

"What do you think?" Yu Wenwen asked, and Zhang Dingfa, the leader of the guards standing on the side, said that it was easy to deal with, because Xiyang was not a crowded city like Chang'an, and the number of households was small and easy to monitor.

There are more than 5,000 households in Xiyang City, most of the people are accents in the south of the Yangtze River, if there are outsiders, especially people from the north, it is easy to hear it.

"That being said. The same people had been lurking in the city for nearly two months. Yu Wenwen asked rhetorically. Zhang Dingfa said that the other party held a family hostage and lived at home, but he couldn't take care of his head. Ten people had to eat and drink every day, so that the family bought much more rice and vegetables than usual.

This is an important clue for him to find the thief's den, after Yu Wenwen took office, if there are guests staying in the hotel and the mansion, they must be registered, forcing these people to only occupy the magpie's nest, but the clues will eventually be revealed.

"It's not enough, it's better to prevent trouble than to prevent it, if any of the big families in the city do their internal response, they can't touch the fox's tail just by asking about these,"

"What does the county mean?"

"The defense of the government is very good, and it will be too much to strengthen it, and this father is ready to strengthen household registration and public security management, so that how many people come will be in vain."

Zhang Dingfa didn't say much when he heard this, seeing that the other party didn't take it to heart, he thought about it for a moment and said that this matter is a little tricky, Yuwen Wen heard the words and asked what was tricky, so he said that if the other party came up and assassinated, it might not drag on for so long, and the success rate was not low.

"Have you ever heard of a group of people from the Ancient Qi Ye City?"

Yuwen Wen's heart moved when he heard this, but he asked who it was without changing his face. Zhang Dingfa then said the two words he had heard his brother say: Ye Xiao.

"Is it them? Ben Gong met him in Jiangling, and at that time he was still speculating whether Yang Jian hired him, but now it seems that this is the case. ”

Zhang Dingfa said that among the ten people, including the leader, three of them had strange bird predation patterns tattooed on their hands, so they were members of Ye Xiao, and with their skills, they could snoop on the mansion several times at night, and they were unscathed, which was also worthy of the name.

As for being set up and raided by the palace guards, the nest is nothing more than a gutter overturning, and the boat is accidentally overturned, because the other party seems to want to contact Anu first, and if the other party launches an assassination as soon as he arrives in Bazhou, I am afraid it will not be so easy to deal with.

"County Prince, Ye Xiao is nothing more than a fox and a fake tiger in the eyes of outsiders, acting under the banner of Emperor Gaoqi, but many of them have real skills, otherwise they would not be qualified to tattoo that pattern."

"How do you know so well, could it be that Yu Wenwen thought in his heart but remained silent, the life of this former horse bandit boss before he fell into the grass is unknown, and now it seems that he is not a native of Qi or the kind of story that he has some stories about, but if the other party doesn't say it, he won't ask.

If you want to tell a story, even Yang Ji will be shocked when my story is told!

Yuwen Wen asked what the best plan was. Zhang \ Dingfa said that there is no good strategy for preventing thieves for a thousand days, only keep in mind and don't be careless, the other three are veterans, and the result is that the game is done carelessly, so please also ask the county to travel in the future, don't be strong.

"You can't just prevent it. They have been lurking in the city for two months, and the general situation must have reached Chang'an, and Yang Jian is afraid that the next time he will send a dead soldier. ”

Hearing this, Yuwen Wen looked at the guards on the side and shot arrows thoughtfully: Okay, I admit that I was the first to assassinate you, but since you came to the door, don't blame me for going to Chang'an to do something in the west.

Yuwenwen asked Zhang Dingfa to pick some people from the guards in the house, he was going to send them to Chang'an for a 'business trip', the conditions for selecting people were very simple, first of all, he could change his original accent in a short period of time and his skills could at least protect himself halfway, and finally his brain should be flexible and adaptable.

Zhang Ding asked when he wanted someone, Yu Wenwen said as soon as possible, otherwise it would drag on for a long time, and he was afraid that the road would be cut off again, and at least ten people would have to strengthen the 'training' so as not to be made into adult meat buns by the black shop halfway through, as for the foothold after arriving in Chang'an, he had his own arrangements.

"By the way, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for a while when I go to Chang'an, you have to choose the right one, don't be homesick and have a sad face all day long, so why bother?"

Yu Wenwen judged that Zheng Yi's line was still useful according to this confession, so he decided to 'recharge' the old guy and prepare to carry out 'business', the two estuaries have been separated for half a year, if he doesn't 'recharge' again, then the old fox is afraid that he will have to think about it.

Relatives must move around often, otherwise the relationship is easy to be rusty, not to mention the friends of interests, although they don't know the year of the monkey when they return to Chang'an, but the buried line must be maintained.

The deep sea is in Chang'an, think about it, look forward to it! ……

In the backyard, Yu Wenwen sat on the couch with an unkind face, Yang Lihua, who wanted to stop talking, sat next to him, and Anu, who had changed her name to Liu Ye, stood in front of him nervously.

"Tell me, what did you do wrong?" Yu Wenwen put on a posture and said, because of Anu's abnormal performance when he was a bait, he had negative feelings towards Yang Lihua, but after regaining his senses, he was able to resolve this level.

As the culprit, Anu, this 'person' must die, based on Yang Lihua's intercession, so he asked Anu to change his name, so as not to think of the 'unbearable' past when he heard it.

Anu, who changed her name to Liu Ye, immediately made a review, at that time, she shouldn't have heard so much from the other party and sent a direct signal, and when she came back, she should have 'confessed' to Lord Lang in time instead of just going to Mrs. Fang.

"The first goal of those people is that my father will take people away by the way, if you make an inside line, then this family will be over!"

Liu Ye plopped down and knelt down to admit her mistake, she was just touching the scene and feeling for a while, and it was difficult to control her emotions for a while, and the imprint in her heart that had been imprinted in the Sui State Mansion for more than ten years was not something that would be able to be resolved for a while.

"From the day you came to Anlu, the Xiyang County Mansion is your new home, and if you think about it in the past, you are asking for trouble, and if you are the intimate person of Mrs. Side, I will let it go this time, and there will be no next time!"

"The slave understands."

Yu Wenwen nodded when he saw this, he knew that Liu Ye had been complaining in private, for Yang Lihua's sake, he didn't care, but he would never tolerate the other party going on like this, not to mention anything else, at least it would bring other maids to ruin.

With Huang Aqi's previous experience, he is very sensitive to the loyalty of the servants in the house, and Liu Ye, who is obviously only loyal to Yang Lihua rather than him, is easy to be taken advantage of by outsiders.

After beating the willow leaves, Yuwen Wen cleared the field and left only Yang Lihua, Yang Lihua communicated with his mother Dugu Jialuo through Pei Guogong Zheng Yi, but the two of them knew, and now Yuwen Wen has good news:

"After a while, send someone to Chang'an for my husband and write a letter for them to bring over."
