Chapter 206: The So-called 'Half Immortal'
The girl's lips trembled slightly, and when she saw Yu Banxian's eyes showing a fierce light, she suddenly whimpered in fright.
Kang Xu's sword eyebrows raised slightly, and he directly stepped on Yu Banxian's head, and shouted coldly: "This official will tell you the truth, even if there is no testimony from them, just rely on your gossip to confuse the public, this official can also kill you, you better be honest with me, otherwise this official will take your dog life now!" ”
As he spoke, Kang Xu took the Pu knife from the hand of the official and put it directly on Yu Banxian's neck.
Yu Banxian was frightened, he was afraid that Kang Xu would really cut him with a knife, and he didn't even dare to breathe, let alone stare at a few girls with his eyes.
"Girls, don't worry, this official will punish this person severely. All you have to do is nod or shake your head at the question. Kang Xu looked at the three of them and said gently.
The three women looked at each other, and suddenly nodded with a whimper, indicating that they did recognize Yu Banxian.
"Yu Banxian, what else do you have to say?" Kang Xu patted Yu Banxian's shoulder with a Pu knife and said coldly.
Yu Banxian's face was pressed against the ground, and he still shouted with luck: "My lord, they are all delirious, how can they believe what they say!" I've never seen them before, they're wronging the poor! ”
"So what, even if they really wronged you, the official believes what they say, and you are the murderer of Tao Zhaoxue." Kang Xu said indifferently.
Yu Banxian's eyes finally showed a look of horror, he struggled hard, and shouted, "You are framed!" If you can't find the murderer, you want me to take the blame, and the poor road will go to the state capital to accuse you of framing you! ”
Kang Xu sighed disapprovingly, and said lightly: "It's a pity." You can only give your dream to Lord Thorn Shi, because this official is going to cut you now! ”
said. Kang Xu raised his knife sharply and slashed at his neck.
Yu Banxian saw this. Suddenly frightened feces and urine.
"Sir, slow down!"
But at this moment, the village chief suddenly shouted.
Kang Xu's brows furrowed, he put away the Pu knife, watched the village chief staring at Yu Banxian, and walked over step by step.
"My lord, I think this person is a little strange, can you let me see and kill again?" The village chief said.
Kang Xu nodded and threw the sword to the officer. Although he was furious and wanted to slaughter Yu Banxian, after all, he was pretending to be Li Canghai at this time, representing the imperial court, how could he really kill people?
At this time, Yu Banxian's face was already bloodless with fright, and his goal of shock had been achieved.
The village chief squatted in front of Yu Banxian, staring at him intently, and Kang Xu suddenly found out. Yu Banxian's eyes when he looked at the village chief were a little dodgy, and he didn't seem to dare to look directly.
The village chief also discovered this, and they were respectful to Yu Banxian on weekdays. He had never looked at him yet, and at this time he stared at Yu Banxian, and found that Yu Banxian seemed to be a little timid.
He reached out and grabbed Yu Banxian's beard. Suddenly, I only heard a snort. That beard was torn off directly!
"Rebel! How could it be you! The village chief looked at the young face under the beard, and suddenly became angry. Let out a roar of rage.
Kang Xu was taken aback, he didn't expect Yu Banxian's beard to be fake!
He hurriedly lifted Yu Banxian up, and reached out to tear off the white beard and long eyebrows on his face.
Only then did I find out that the so-called Yu Banxian turned out to be a young man!
"Brute, you ...... Brute! The village chief's face turned blue, his chest continued to rise and fall, and he pointed at Yu Banxian with trembling all over his body, and kept scolding.
"Village Chief, do you recognize this person?" Kang Xu frowned and asked.
Bao Jia was also stunned, and he said in a daze: "My lord, he is the son of the village chief who disappeared a few months ago, Liu Tie. Unexpectedly, the immortal chief we have worshiped for so long turned out to be him! ”
"You rebel, you actually did these things, see if I don't kill you!" The village chief trembled, he waved his hand and slapped Liu Tie, and said angrily.
When Liu Tie saw that he was exposed, his face was suddenly panicked, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground and cried: "Dad, help me, you must save me, I don't want to die!" ”
"Save you? You give me an honest explanation, why are you pretending to be missing? Why do you pretend to be a half-immortal? And Lan'er, are you imprisoned? Give me a fifteen-ten! The village chief's face turned blue with anger, and he coughed violently, and he coughed up blood.
"I ...... I....... Liu Tie knelt on the ground, seemingly hesitating.
"Brute! Say it! The village chief coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood and roared in a low voice: "Rebel, do you know that if you do these things, it is a capital crime!" So far, you still don't admit it, you really want to make me angry to death? ”
"Liu Tie, you still haven't been honest until now? You know that all these things you have done are going to kill your head! Bao Jia sighed on the side, with an expression of hatred that iron could not be made of steel.
"Dad, save me, help me...... Father! Liu Tie finally recognized his situation, and unprecedented fear appeared on his face, crying desperately.
"Hmph, now you know for help? This official made it clear to you, just by what you do, even if the king of heaven comes, he will not want to save you! The prince broke the law, and he was guilty of the same crime as the common people, and your father is just a village chief, do you think he can save you? Kang Xu raised his eyebrows and shouted majestically.
"O iniquity! What a sin! How did I raise such a brute as you! My old face has been lost by you, what face do I have to face the whole village, it is better to let me die headfirst! The village chief coughed violently for a while, then beat his chest and cried.
Liu Tie softened on the ground in fright, and after a long while, he cried and shouted: "Dad, I move, I move!" ”
"Recruit from the truth about how you imprisoned the woman and how you killed Tao Zhaoxue, if you say half a lie, you will not be spared!" Kang Xu raised his eyebrows and said sharply.
"My lord, I am wronged! I admit to pretending to be a Taoist priest and spreading rumors about the haunted house, but I didn't imprison them, let alone kill them! Liu Tie cried.
"You still don't admit it? Okay, then let the official do it for you. Kang Xu put his hands behind his back and said coldly: "Three days ago, you kidnapped Tao Zhaoxue from the bamboo forest outside Zhengyang City to here, in order to vent your inner beastly desires, you tied her limbs, hung him, and humiliated him wantonly. In order to satisfy your heart's desires, you tortured them in every possible way, and finally killed them in an extremely cruel way, yes or no? ”
Bao Jia was surprised, and the village chief's chest rose and fell desperately, and he began to roll his eyes in anger.
Kang Xu stared at Liu Tie coldly, his words were full of anger, and he said in a low voice: "After you killed Tao Zhaoxue, in order to destroy the corpse, you tied it to a stone and threw it into the Luohe River. But you didn't expect that the corpse would be salvaged by two fishermen, who coveted the jewelry on the corpse, but fortunately, they had a clear conscience and took down the falling stones from the corpse, and let the corpse flow with the tide to the downstream ten miles downstream. ”
"This one by one, can the official say that he is wrong?" Kang Xu's eyes were swirling with murderous intent, and his cold eyes were staring at Liu Tie.
This murder, whether it is from Tao Zhaoxue's cruel death or the imprisoned woman he rescued, has touched his bottom line.
He felt very depressed in his heart, as if the anger in his body was burning wildly, and he urgently needed to vent.
Liu Tie was paralyzed on the ground like a dead pig, and shouted desperately: "My lord, I didn't kill anyone!" I really didn't kill anyone! ”
"The evidence is conclusive, and you dare to deny it, come and beat this person with thirty sticks!" Kang Xu's eyes were cold, he didn't pay attention to Liu Tie's roar at all, waved his right hand, and shouted loudly.
The officials were already furious in their hearts, gritting their teeth, eager to kill Liu Tie directly, at this time, when they heard Kang Xu's words, where would they be polite?
picked up the wooden stick with the thickness of his arm found in the courtyard, and beat Liu Tie fiercely.
In an instant, half of the village echoed Liu Tie's screams like killing pigs.
After thirty sticks, Liu Tie's beaten skin on his buttocks was open, and he almost didn't faint.
He lay on the ground, whimpering weakly and crying, "My lord, spare my life...... Dad, I really didn't kill anyone...... Hurry up and plead with me...... Father! ”
Although the village chief was very angry, Liu Tie was his own son after all, he slapped himself hard, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Kang Xu reaching out.
"This official will give you a chance, since you said that you did not kill anyone, then who did you say killed someone?" Kang Xu asked in a cold tone.
"I ...... I really didn't kill anyone! Liu Tie grinned in pain, whimpering and crying.
"You kid, since you didn't kill anyone, why don't you tell the adults everything?" Bao Jia patted the village chief on the back and said to Liu Tie.
"Your Excellency...... I'm all recruited. Liu Tie lay on the ground, snorted in pain, and whimpered: "Here's the thing, two months ago, there were often women crying in this house, I didn't believe that there were ghosts in this house, so I came in over the wall at night." Unexpectedly, I accidentally discovered the secret passage hidden in this house. I had the courage to go into the secret passage, and in the secret passage I found a cell where several young girls were being held, and I was terrified that I wanted to flee from this place, but I was discovered. ”
Speaking of this, Liu Tie paused, he shrunk his neck, and said: "After that man caught me, he wanted to kill me, I begged for mercy in every way, but he saw that I was a little clever, not only did he not kill me, but let me be his subordinate and take care of this place for him." ”
"You discovered the secret of the original master here, and not only did he not kill you, but accepted you as a servant?" Kang Xu frowned and asked.
Liu Tie nodded and said, "At that time, I was afraid of being killed by him, and the conditions he promised me were very tempting, so I agreed to take care of this place for him." ”
"On what terms?" Kang Xu asked in a deep voice.
He said...... The women imprisoned here, except for the ones he specified, I can play with others at will....... Liu Tie glanced at the three frightened girls and whispered.
"Brute!" Hearing this, Bao Jia was also angry, he pointed at Liu Tie and scolded: "It turns out that you kidnapped Lan Yatou, you brute who suffered a thousand knives, Lan Yatou grew up with you, and you actually did it to her?" (To be continued.) )
