The weather is getting colder and colder, especially at night, when the whining north wind blows through Datong City, which seems to be able to freeze everything outside. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info can only feel warm in a room with a charcoal stove and braziers and closed doors and windows.

Jia Huozi lay on the kang with a somewhat high swollen fart, and from time to time made a few muffled snorts and cold breath sounds, but he didn't dare to move much. Two days ago, he was ordered by Guo Rong to be severely beaten, and because of his poor guarding, he actually let Nie Fei, a key prisoner in the cell, die in it.

This board was really powerful, and it knocked Jia Huozi and several other jailers unconscious, and one of them hadn't woken up until this time. Although Jia Huozi's body was strong and he stood up, he was so painful that he couldn't move for two days, and even he felt that his bulging back was flattened by this board.

Regarding this result, although Jia Huozi was a little resentful in his heart, he could only admit it. Who told himself that he didn't keep a good eye at night, and let such an important prisoner die. Not to mention that this incident also alarmed Lord Chincha, just because he failed to ask the whereabouts of those things from the mouth of the prisoner, his crime was not small.

After staying in a room with two braziers for a long time, it is easy to get thirsty, and then Jia Huozi has this feeling. After struggling to prop himself up and pick up the big pottery bowl by the kang, but found that it was empty, he put the bowl on the table and shouted: "Cuilan...... Cuilan...... Where did this damn woman go? ”

Cuilan is his mother-in-law, a woman of the same age, but not very good-looking. Jia Huozi doesn't have much affection for this woman, but fortunately, the other party is quite diligent and has a good temper on weekdays, even if Jia Huozi is always drinking outside, she doesn't dare to ask, so he has no opinion on this mother-in-law. It's just that he has been injured recently, which makes his temper seem a lot more irritable than before.

As if hearing his shout, the door creaked open. Hearing the movement, Jia Huozi didn't even turn his head, so he ordered, "Go, get me some water." Also, it's time for me to change my medicine. ”

After saying this, Jia Huozi was stunned, because there was no familiar sound of his mother-in-law's answer, and there was no footsteps to turn around and go out. Just when he was a little impatient and wanted to turn back and teach a few lessons, he snorted, and a big hand grabbed his neck, and actually lifted him directly from the kang, and then slammed it hard, and Jia Huozi was smashed to the ground. This blow was really not light, it fell so hard that the bones in his body were about to fall apart, and the wound on his back and buttocks, which had just improved after being scolded by the cane, directly burst open, making him let out a miserable scream.

But no sooner had he screamed than a big foot came and stomped on his chest and throat, breaking his screams. Immediately, Jia Huozi saw the person in front of him, this is a tall and thin man with a cold face and murderous spirit.

"Good...... The good man spares his life, the small family only has a few taels of silver, if you want it, just take it. Jia Huozi hurriedly begged for mercy, but his words were very vague. He just said that what kind of person is the person who broke into the house at night, and now it is naturally important to save his life.

The man stepped on Jia Huozi's feet and lifted it up slightly, stared at him coldly for a moment and said, "You are the guard of the prison cell in the army?" ”

"Positive...... Precisely. I don't know what the hero wants, but it doesn't hurt to say it. Seeing that the other party actually revealed his identity, Jia Huozi knew that things were not what he thought just now.

"I'm just here to ask you a few questions, as long as you answer honestly, it's naturally nothing."

"Hero, please say, the little one knows everything." Jia Huozi was busy stammering.

"Why did Nie Fei, who died two days ago in your prison, die? Also, why did you do that to him, and what did you want from him? The man asked, staring into Jia Huozi's eyes.

"Nie Fei...... He died suddenly, probably because he couldn't be tortured. Jia Huozi's heart moved, and he quickly replied: "As for mobility, it was a small moment of confusion, and he only moved his hand after receiving the benefits of others......"

"It seems that you don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin, and you can't trust my methods." When the man heard this, his eyes suddenly showed a sharp color, and at the same time as his feet were loosened, a rope had been thrown out of his hand, and just before Jia Huozi was about to struggle, the rope was already wrapped around his mouth, and it was like a horse's chewing head, and the hoop was dead.

Immediately, the man's hand pulled hard, and he pulled the Jia camel who was still struggling out of an arc in reverse. I could only hear that Jia Huozi's vertebrae were making a soft noise, and I was afraid that no matter how hard I pulled, my bones would be torn off.

Jia Huozi's body was sick and arched. Now that he has been pulled in the opposite direction, the pain is naturally great, which makes him just want to scream loudly. But because he was still chewed with a rope in his mouth, his screams were completely silent, only a few whimperes came out. This painful feeling made him tremble vigorously, and the whole person shook like chaff, and then the stool under his crotch drowned, and the stench quickly spread in the room.

When the man smelled this, he frowned unconsciously, and after snorting coldly, the strength of his hand loosened slightly, and he threw Jia Huozi back to the ground: "This is just a small punishment and a big commandment, if you want to deceive me with such words again, it will not be so cheap in the future." As he spoke, a cold light flashed, and a sharp knife had pierced into the ground against Jia Huozi's cheek.

This made Jia Huozi tremble again, so frightened that he couldn't even speak. After a while, he said, "Okay...... Heroes, the little ones don't dare to say big things anymore. ”

"Then answer my question again, and if I find that you dare to deceive, I will cut off one of your hands first......" The man said, drawing his knife again, and making two strokes on Jia Huozi's right hand.

How could Jia Huozi, who had already been frightened, dare to play tricks, and said busily: "Good man, the little one really doesn't know how Nie Fei died, but we tortured him so much to get something." "Although the matter involves the generals above, once Tian Liuzhi and others know that it is everything they have confessed, I am afraid that the end will be very miserable. But now that he is dying, what choice does he have but to look at the present.

"What's that?" The man hurriedly asked.

"Yes...... It is said that they are the account books of the entry and exit of ordnance, grain and grass in the Datong army......" Jia Huozi replied truthfully.

The man's eyes flashed, as if he had thought of something. The strength in his hand loosened again: "Who told you to do this?" Could Nie Fei's death have anything to do with it? ”

"It's Tian Liuye...... As for Nie Fei, his death is really unclear. ”

"Hmph, won't you tell the truth?" The strength of the man's hand tightened again, which made Jia Huozi's bones creak again, and the pain made him almost faint. But his mouth was busy and said: "The little one doesn't dare to lie, the little one is just a cell guard, I really don't know more things, the good man spares his life." ”

Seeing that he didn't look like a fake, the man's hand movement was slightly relaxed: "But as far as I know, Nie Fei's death was because someone secretly poisoned him, do you dare to say that this has nothing to do with you?" ”

"Secretly poisoned? The little one really doesn't know wow, is there some misunderstanding on the part of the hero? ”

"Misunderstanding? A needle had pierced an artery in his neck, causing the blood to flow to be cut off, which was not something that could have been done by dying violently or committing suicide. Say, "Is this not your doing?" ”

"Is there such a thing? I really don't know where the little ones are. When he said this, Jia Huozi's heart suddenly moved, and he had already guessed the identity of the other party. The only person who can find out this is the person who has now mastered Nie Fei's corpse, no wonder this person used torture on himself so badly, which made him even more afraid. Immediately, he thought of something again, and his expression suddenly froze.

His expression naturally couldn't hide the man's eyes: "Say, what else do you know?" ”

"The little one does know a little thing, but I still ask the good man to spare my life......" Jia Huozi hurriedly talked to the other party about the conditions.

"As long as you tell the truth, I will spare your life!" The man said lightly.

After weighing it for a while, Jia Huozi was finally forced to answer honestly because of the situation: "Although the little one is not sure, but on the night of Nie Fei's death two days ago, Tian Liuye suddenly came to the cell and asked us to question him again. Subsequently, Tian Liuye also stepped forward to make a move, but at that time, he saw that Nie Fei was only knocked unconscious, but he did not die......"

"That Tian Liu is Guo Rong's person?"

"Exactly, he is one of Guo Zongbing's cronies, and he has quite prestige in the army."

The man nodded knowingly, so it seems that the matter is very understandable, that is, this Tian Liu was ordered by Guo Rong to kill Nie Fei in prison before Yang Zhen wanted someone. The answer to this point can be drawn from the clues on the corpse and the words of the Jia camel in front of him.

And Guo Rong did this, obviously it has a lot to do with the ledger. After knowing all this, the man's feet finally moved away completely, and his hand released the rope: "Very well, I hope what you say is true, otherwise you know what the result will be." Also, tonight's events ......"

"Nothing happened in the small family, and the little one didn't say anything...... "Jia Huozi is quite smart, and said immediately.

The man smiled, turned and walked away.

It wasn't until he heard the sound of the door opening and closing that Jia Huozi breathed a sigh of relief and fell to the ground suddenly. It was only then that he felt waves of pain coming from the inside out of his body, making him moan again and again. But in his heart, he was still a little happy, at least he had escaped this catastrophe, and as for the next, it seemed that he had to think of leaving Datong first to avoid the limelight......
