In a firewood room in the backyard of Yingyuan Restaurant, Jiu Ziye was extremely embarrassed by the torture equipment, and there was a soldier in armor in front of him who kept beating his body with whips.

However, Jiu Ziye just gritted his teeth tightly and did not make the slightest sound, as if the whipping of the soldiers could not cause him half of the damage at all.

"Didn't you eat? Fuck off, let me do it! Seeing Jiu Ziye's "enjoyment" look, Ran Hong angrily yelled at the soldier who was wielding the whip.

The soldier lowered his head and handed the whip to Ran Hong with some fear, and slowly retreated to the corner.

Poof!

With a crisp sound, the whip swung directly into Jiu Ziye's chest, Jiu Ziye was startled by Ran Hong's sudden ruthlessness, and couldn't help but snort.

"My lord, before you hit me, you let me know why, right? Could it really be because of that woman? Does the minister still have this habit? If this is the case, I will definitely find the most bewitching and beautiful beauty for Chincha-sama and send it to her. ”

Jiu Ziye coughed softly, forcibly pressed the pain all over his body to the bottom of his heart, and said softly with a smile on his face.

"Presumptuous! Lord Chincha is something that a thief like you can slander. Ran Hong's eyes widened, and he was so angry that he was about to swing the whip in his hand again.

At this time, Xu Muchuan's voice came from the door in a cold voice: "General Ran, you are tired all night, go to the side and rest!" Don't be angry. ”

"Your Excellency." Ran Hong and several soldiers in the firewood room turned around and bowed one after another.

"Teacher." Yun Changqing also held the courtesy of a disciple and muttered respectfully to Xu Muchuan.

Immediately, Ran Hong and others made way for Xu Muchuan.

Xu Muchuan slowly walked in front of Jiu Ziye, stared at Jiu Ziye with cold eyes, and said, "Your courage is very big, so big that even the officials are frightened. ”

"What do you mean by that? The villain doesn't understand. Hearing Xu Muchuan's question, a look of surprise and shock flashed in the depths of Jiu Ziye's eyes, and he wondered in his heart whether Xu Muchuan knew something, otherwise why would Xu Muchuan talk to him like this.

"Humph! Trafficking in human beings, killing people, you Jiu Ziye alone has occupied these things, and this official wants to know how many people with the same status as you have blood on their hands. Xu Muchuan snorted coldly, and his momentum suddenly shocked Jiu Ziye's soul.

What the! Jiu Ziye held his breath the moment Xu Muchuan spoke, and his mind was anxiously thinking about how Xu Muchuan knew, and all kinds of complex emotions were stuck in his throat.

"My lord, the villain doesn't understand your words, the villain is just an ordinary Qinglou steward." Jiu Ziye said in denial, but he was shocked in his heart and was thinking about what to do next.

"I guessed that people like you have a very tight mouth, and they won't say it until the last minute. So......" Xu Muchuan looked at Jiu Ziye expressionlessly, paused and said, "So, this official doesn't want to waste more words with you, and I don't want to waste time with you." ”

As a second-rate master, Jiu Ziye has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, even when facing Fu Hengsheng, a first-class master, he did not panic at all. However, at this moment, when he saw Xu Muchuan's bloodless black eyes, he couldn't help but beat the drum in his heart, and couldn't help but procrastinate.

"People like you must have been trained, and ordinary punishments are unlikely to ease your mouth. So, tonight, the official asked you to try a new trick, and you will definitely not want to experience a new trick in your life. ”

Xu Muchuan walked towards a chair placed in the firewood room and slowly sat down.

Wen Ruofei and Fu Hengsheng both showed a look of surprise when they saw Xu Muchuan, whose painting style had changed abruptly. They have been with Xu Muchuan for so long, and they basically know Xu Muchuan's temperament and ability.

In Fu Hengsheng's opinion, Xu Muchuan is a weak scholar who has no power to restrain the chicken, and his knowledge is profound enough to shock the current Emperor of Beiyuan, Jun Yuyi, and the three princes of Beiyuan. However, they never knew that Xu Muchuan would be punished or anything like that, which of course made Fu Hengsheng and them stunned.

Yun Changqing has always respected Xu Muchuan very much, and he has respected Xu Muchuan extremely since the beginning of meeting. At this moment, Yun Changqing was also stunned, and a pair of puzzled eyes looked directly at Xu Muchuan who was cold.

"General Ran, in the shortest possible time, send someone to dig an ant nest and go to the kitchen to find some honey and other things." Xu Muchuan turned his head to Ran Hong and ordered, that's right, it's an order, this is the first time Xu Muchuan has spoken to Ran Hong in a cold tone.

"Yes, sir." Although he didn't know what Xu Muchuan wanted to do, Ran Hong still respectfully accepted the order.

The cold wind is bleak, and the bright moon is in the sky.

Even in the hazy darkness of the night, Ran Hong and the other soldiers did not dare to carry it in the slightest. Soon, Ran Hong rushed in with a black package.

As Ran Hong walked quickly, some mud and dust also fell from the black package along the road, and there were many small ants in the mud and dust.

"My lord, I've found them all." Ran Hong said with a very solemn fist.

"General Ran, cut some holes in his body from top to bottom, and ensure that he only hurts the epidermis and not the tendons, and doesn't let him bleed to death." Xu Muchuan glanced at the ant nest wrapped in black fabric, and then looked at Jiu Ziye.

At this moment, Ran Hong seemed to know what Xu Muchuan was going to do, and he hesitated for a moment: "Yes, my lord." ”

Immediately, Ran Hong relied on his superb martial arts skills, and soon opened many small openings on Jiu Ziye's body. Because Ran Hong's knife was fast, so fast that Jiu Ziye couldn't even feel half of the pain, he just felt a little uncomfortable.

After a while, Jiu Ziye was bleeding from many cuts on his body, and his whole person seemed to be soaked with scarlet blood.

"My lord, what's next?" Although Ran Hong guessed Xu Muchuan's next step, he still didn't dare to come forward and ask.

"Sprinkle honey and something like that all over his body, and then break up the whole ant nest and throw it on him." Xu Muchuan didn't say anything benevolently.

"Yes, the Admiral knows." Ran Hong turned to Xu Muchuan's order and began to sprinkle the prepared honey towards Jiu Ziye's wound.

Jiu Ziye is not stupid, in this case, if he can't guess what Xu Muchuan wants to do, then he will be in vain after all these years of wandering in the rivers and lakes.

"You can't do this, I am a citizen of the Northern Abyss Country, and you are using lynching." Jiu Ziye seemed to be a little flustered and yelled at Xu Muchuan.

Xu Muchuan glanced at Jiu Ziye, who was yelling, and said in a deep voice: "This official is the minister of the Qincha, holding the sword of the Son of Heaven, and has the right to cut first and then play, how can he be lynched." ”
