Chapter 248: Race Against Time

Yang Qiuchi woke up from his contemplation at this time, raised his hand and drew a order from the case holder, and threw it off the stage: "Report the big thief!" ”

The executioner who was resting on a chair not far behind the death row prisoner was a big man, who got up when he heard this, flipped his wrist and showed a ghost-headed knife, and walked to the Jiangyang thief who was kneeling on the ground with a big tie. The executioner's apprentice reached out and grabbed his braid and straightened his neck. The thief laughed: "Brother, be quick with your hands and feet, give you a good time!" ”

The executioner's ghost head knife was raised high, and he let out a loud shout, the cold light flashed, the blood splattered, and the big head rolled out a few steps away. Blood splattered out of his neck like a fountain and spilled all over the ground. The corpse slowly fell to the ground. There was a cacophony of exclamations from the crowd of onlookers in the distance.

The executioner's face did not change color and his heart did not beat, he picked up a white sweat towel to wipe the blood off the ghost head knife, threw the sweat towel on the ground, turned around and walked back to his seat, picked up a bowl of wine and drank it all.

Yang Qiuchi has seen a lot of dead corpses, and he has seen a lot of people shot, but he has never seen a beheading on the spot. Now it seems that the shocking effect of this beheading is indeed more violent than that of shooting.

Yun Tianqing hugged Yun Xuan tightly, he knew that in three moments, his son would leave him, but he had no way at all. The old face, wrinkled like pine bark, couldn't help but cry with old tears.

Yang Qiuchi's thoughts that had been disrupted by the beheading just now were called back by Yun Tianqing's cry at this moment, and the uneasiness in his heart quickly filled his heart like a dark cloud. Yang Qiuchi stood up and walked down the pergola towards Yun Stunned and them.

Liu Ruobing and Song Yun'er didn't know what Yang Qiuchi was going to do, so they hurriedly chased after him. Guards such as Chang Fu and Nangong Xiong also followed.

Yang Qiuchi came to Yun Qiuchi's side, and before he could speak, Yun Tianqing suddenly screamed like crazy and pounced on Yang Qiuchi.

With Liu Ruobing and Song Yun'er behind Yang Qiuchi, ten more Yun Tianqing can't get into Yang Qiuchi's side, and to deal with such a crazy man, there is no need for Liu Ruobing to make a move. Song Yun'er flew up with a kick, kicked Yun Tianqing upside down and flew out more than a dozen steps away, and fell heavily to the ground, unable to move.

Several officials pounced on him and held him down, took out a rope to tie it, and Yang Qiuchi stopped. He didn't have time to go crazy with Yun Tianqing now, and asked Yun Tianqing: "I'll ask you one last time, this is the last chance - did you kill Wang Dianshi?" ”

Human life is the most precious, and without life, there is nothing. Yun Su also longed for life, not to mention that he didn't want to die in such a daze, so he said it, and shouted hoarsely:

"I was wronged! I didn't kill him! I was beaten by Jiang Zhixian into a trick, they crushed my ten fingers, scalded me with a soldering iron, poured me with cold water in winter, and peeled my skin~! Woo woo woo, I didn't kill anyone, I was wronged by them. ”

Yang Qiuchi was angry in his heart: "I asked you so many times and you didn't answer, what did you do earlier, and now you will say!" ”

"I thought you were the same as that Jiangzhi County, and you knew how to oppress us Miao people." Yun cried in a daze.

Yang Qiuchi didn't have time to explain to him such a profound philosophical question as the difference between people at this time, so he suppressed his anger and asked, "What's going on?" - Don't cry! Say it! ”

Yun was stunned for a moment, and said in one breath: "That morning, my mother and her brother went to the county town to buy things, and they didn't come back for a long time, I was in a hurry and went into the city to look for it, and when I walked to the gate of the county government, a woman asked me if I was looking for someone, I said yes, she said she saw it, and described my lady's clothes and appearance, and said to take me to find it." I believed it, so I went with him to look for it, and when I came to the back alley of the Yamen, she suddenly attacked me and knocked me unconscious. ”

"When I woke up, I was already in the inner office, there was fire and smoke everywhere, there was blood on my hands, and the waist knife was in my hand. There were two corpses lying on the ground, and I turned over by the nearest one, it was a woman, and they were all dead, so frightened that I got up and ran, and I was arrested when I ran out of the inner office. I really didn't kill it! ”

"Do you have any proof? I mean the evidence, and now without the evidence, I can't trust you. "Thinking that a woman can subdue you as a big man, who are you fooling? You think there are a lot of girls like Song Yuner.

"Evidence...... ...... evidence," Yun said in a panic.

Yun Tianqing was pressed by several officials, raised his head to look at the sky and looked at the sky, he was almost out of time, he shouted: "My son was really wronged!" Lord Yang, please! He wouldn't be so stupid as to run into the yamen alone to kill people, let alone be stupid enough to kill people with his own knife...... Woo woo woo "The old man howled as he struggled.

This makes sense, since this Yun Xuan was premeditated to sneak into the yamen to kill people, he would definitely think about how to abscond when the time comes, it is impossible to run to the gate in a panic after killing someone, with blood in his hand and a knife, and it is his own waist knife. However, this is not a strong piece of evidence and cannot overturn the original verdict.

Yang Qiuchi shook his head regretfully, and turned around to go back to the pergola, but he always felt as if he had missed something very important, very, very important something, what was it?

He subconsciously stood still, touched his chin, and frowned as he thought about every word he had just said. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to mind, and he turned around sharply and asked Yun Xuan, "What did you just say?" When you turned over the woman's corpse, she was already dead, what kind of hard method? Remember! ”

Yun was stunned when he saw Yang Qiuchi turn around and go back to the pergola, his heart had sunk to the bottom, and suddenly he saw Yang Qiuchi asking in turn, and suddenly his hope was ignited, and he nodded anxiously:

"Yes, her hands won't bend, she threw them straight and hit me in the face, which startled me, but I still pulled her up and tried to shake her awake, only to find that her neck was stiff, as if she had inserted a stick, and her head didn't hang down, just like that, she swayed and stared straight at me, her waist was [***], her feet were too, she wouldn't bend, and her whole body was like a piece of wood. I was terrified, so I left her and fled. ”

"Is this female corpse the concubine of Wang Dianshi, Aunt Zhao?"

"I don't know his concubine, so I don't know if this woman is Aunt Zhao, besides, this woman's face is red, it's all blood, I can't tell who it is, and the room is full of smoke, I am frightened, I can't take a closer look."

Yang Qiuchi's head glared like a brother Xiu, a flash of inspiration, and he turned around sharply and asked his follower Changfu: "Where is the Zhenjiang Temple where Wang Dianshi's coffin was placed?" ”

Chang Fu pointed forward: "It's on the opposite hillside, about six or seven miles away from here. ”

Yang Qiuchi looked up, it was far away, and asked again, "How long is it until three o'clock in the afternoon?" ”

"It's been almost a moment, two more moments!"

It's too late! Yang Qiuchi screamed bitterly, this Yun was stunned and asked him yesterday if he didn't say it, but now he is willing to say it, it's too late, what should I do?

The death penalty must be carried out within three days, today is the last day, if you miss three o'clock in the afternoon, you cannot be killed, and if you do not execute a person for more than three days, you must be held accountable! What to do! Cold sweat flowed down Yang Qiuchi's forehead.

Liu Ruobing suddenly said, "Lord Yang is going to the temple on the opposite mountain?" ”

When Yang Qiuchi heard this, he immediately shouted happily: "Yes, yes! Sister Liu's jujube red horse is not there? Quick, take me there, it's too late! He turned his head and shouted loudly to Mr. Zhao: "Suspend the execution, wait for me to come back!" ”

Liu Ruobing's orchid finger was in her mouth, and she let out a few sharp and urgent whistles, and in a moment, a red horse galloped in the distance. Liu Ruobing hugged Yang Qiuchi's waist, rose into the air, landed steadily on the jujube red horse, shook the reins, the jujube red horse neighed, and rushed towards the mountain like a gallop.

Zhao Jiang didn't know what was going on, anyway, the supervisor was Yang Qiuchi, he was only responsible for the safety of the law field, and he agreed at the moment, and was about to ask, Yang Qiuchi and they had already galloped away.

Song Yun'er hurriedly chased a few steps and shouted: "Hello~!" Wait for me! ”

Nangong Xiong and the other guards took a horse to Song Yun'er and rode away together.

This jujube red horse is really a divine horse, Yang Qiuchi only heard the sound of the wind in his ears, and saw the trees on both sides of the road quickly disappear behind him, and he arrived at the bottom of the mountain at tea time, and continued to gallop along the sheep intestine path to the mountain.

Next to the cliff, Yang Qiuchi was afraid that if this jujube red horse stumbled, it would be shattered if it fell, and he was so frightened that he screamed from time to time.

Liu Ruo snorted coldly: "Close your eyes if you're afraid, a big man is still so timid!" ”

Yang Qiuchi turned his hand and slapped her on the thigh: "You dare to talk about me, see how I treat you!" "There is no one left and right, and Yang Qiuchi is bold.

Liu Ruobing said coldly: "If you dare to move your hands and feet, I ......"

"I'll put you behind the horse and drag you away!" Yang Qiuchi said in her previous tone.

Liu Ruobing laughed when she ate, and then said with a straight face: "What else will you do except be poor?" After a pause, he whispered again: "I don't know what Yun'er likes about you, be a treasure!" ”

Speaking of Yun'er, Yang Qiuchi's heart sank, how to resolve this dead knot, he had no way at all.

Liu Ruobing was talented and intelligent, seeing that Yang Qiuchi suddenly stopped talking, of course she knew what Yang Qiuchi was thinking, sighed softly, and said, "Don't think too much, you can treat Yun'er well in the future." Leave me alone. ”

"But......" Yang Qiuchi turned his face sideways to talk to her, but coincidentally, his lips happened to touch her soft lips, so he kissed her.

Liu Ruobing was a little flustered: "If you do this again, I can't control the jujube red horse, and we will fall to death in two sessions!" ”

"It's not unjust to die with a beauty like you!" Yang Qiuchi didn't know how he became so flamboyant in front of Liu Ruobing, maybe he subconsciously wanted to use this way to dissolve Liu Ruobing's coldness.

"Poor mouth!" Although Liu Ruobing's voice was still so cold, she could hear a trace of warmth.

The two of them talked, but the horses under them did not let up at all, and still galloped up like a whirlwind, and finally rushed to the small temple in the mountains.
