PS: I have to go to a neighboring county to see a doctor today, and it will take at least half a day, so I'm sorry, but I'll only update one chapter today. Recently, my brain has been rising, and my state is also anxious, it may be that I have been sitting on the desk for many years, and my body obviously feels not as good as before.
Here again, please subscribe to the genuine version, a few cents a chapter, this is the driving force of my code words, but also the origin of my life, please!
In the cold prison, there were terrible screams echoing, which made people feel creepy.
Xia Mingtang was covered in bruises, dying, and fainted a few times after being tortured, and was woken up by someone splashing cold water again. Fang Rong, who was dressed in military uniform, walked up to Xia Mingtang and personally picked up a long needle, and the executioner's subordinates immediately pressed Xia Mingtang's hand, and Fang Rong pierced the long needle from Xia Mingtang's fingernails little by little.
"Ah......" The extreme pain made Xia Mingtang's facial features distort, and he screamed loudly, struggling hard, and the shackles on his body rattled.
Fang Rong strengthened little by little, and at the same time asked coldly, "Do you want to tell me, where are the belongings you robbed in Luguan hidden?" Who are the accomplices? ”
"Ah...... Ah......." As the long needle continued to pierce in, Xia Mingtang's whole body tensed, his neck and forehead were bruised and bulging, and his eyes were bulging, and he was blood-red.
"Say it or not!"
"I've already said it ......., ah...... I don't know...... What kind of Lutouguan robbery, that wasn't done by someone...... Certain......... Just a small businessman, no ...... Ability to do such a thing, this time just greedy for cheap....... received some jewelry, other things, I really don't know .......... Yes! ”
"You still want to quibble, you open a pawnshop on the surface, but secretly specialize in selling dirt for people. So-and-so already has conclusive evidence. On the seventh and eighth days of the Lutouguan robbery, you happened to be missing......"
"General... Collect some unknown jewelry at a low price. This...... Every pawnshop has such a thing. On the seventh and eighth days of the first month of this month, I heard... Sanyang Village, Ziyan Mountain, Hanzhou, is called ...... The man named Hao Er had some Han Dynasty jade in his hands. Just go to this He Er and want to buy it, if the general doesn't believe it, he can send someone to ask this Hao Er in Sanyang Village......."
After Fang Rong came out of the interrogation room of the prison, he immediately sent someone to Sanyang Village in Ziyan Mountain to investigate.
A subordinate named Tom Chen, who was beside him, said: "General, it seems that this Xia Mingtang may really have nothing to do with the Lutouguan robbery, and there is no need to continue to waste time on him." ”
Fang Rong, as a confidant general raised by Zhang Qiu and Qiong, was fully responsible for investigating the Lutou Mountain robbery this time, and he dispatched a large number of people. But now I have found nothing, and I am very anxious.
"Check! Send more people and keep the hunt going! If there is the slightest suspicion, do not let it go. At the thought of not knowing how to explain to Zhang Qiu and Qiong, Fang Rong's heart became very irritable. When I went to report to Zhang Qiu and Qiong yesterday, I was already scolded to the blood, what should I do next?
Just when Fang Rong was two big, a small soldier hurriedly came to report: "General Fang, there is a person outside who claims to be Zhao Shangyi who wants to see the general." He said that he had important information to report to the general. ”
"Zhao Shangyi? What important information does he have? ”
"General, he said that he would report to the general in person."
"Take so-and-so to meet him!"
Fang Rong took a few of Tomson's entourage out of the cell gate and came to the banyan tree on the right side of the gate. I saw a young man in his twenties with an indifferent face. Also with a couple of retinues waiting there.
"You are Zhao Shangyi? What is important for you? ”
"Exactly, in Xia Zhao Shangyi, I have seen General Fang." Facing Fang Rong in a military uniform. The indifferent look on Zhao Shangyi's face relaxed a little, and he bowed a long way. "Regarding the Lutouguan robbery, I inadvertently got some clues. Therefore, I came to report to General Fang. ”
Fang Rong, who was anxious about the robbery, immediately asked, "Tell me quickly, what clues do you have?" ”
"I know that General Fang is doing his best to investigate this case, and I hope that the clues provided by Xia will be helpful to General Fang." Zhao Shangyi's attitude is neither humble nor arrogant, steady and calm.
Fang Rong realized that he was too anxious, coughed lightly twice, and said slowly: "As long as the clues you provide help solve the case, General Ben will definitely be grateful." ”
Zhao Shangyi said calmly: "I don't dare to take it seriously, I don't know if the other general's help is still under the clues." In the next day, I overheard a hunter named Wu Erlang in Baigou Village, northwest of Lutou Pass, mentioning that on the sixth day of the first month of this month, when he was chasing a leopard, he saw seven or eight people leading pack horses from the mountain trail in Baiworm Ridge, northwest of Lutou Pass. Not only did these people walk on the remote mountain roads, but strangely, their pack horses had nothing. ”
Fang Rong was a little disappointed when he heard this, others didn't know, but he knew very well that the property that Yang Zhao brought into Beijing was not something that seven or eight pack horses could carry away. Although these people Zhao Shangyi said were suspicious and must be investigated, such news always made Fang Rong a little disappointed.
Zhao Shangyi seemed to know what he was thinking, and said again: "General, in order to hide people's eyes, the robbers must have dispersed their actions in advance, and even after they succeeded, they may have been scattered and hidden, these people appeared in the northwest mountains and forests of Lutouling on the sixth day of the first month, and their movements were secretive, and it was very likely that they were a team of robbers." ”
Regardless of whether what Zhao Shangyi said was right or not, for Fang Rong, who had no clue, this was always a lifesaver, so he immediately ordered his subordinate Tom Chen to take people to find that Wu Erlang, and at the same time intensified efforts to investigate the mountainous areas northwest of Lutou Mountain.
Yangjia Village, just outside Chengdu, is located on the south bank of the Jinjiang River and is surrounded by greenery. There is a wharf at the back of the village, and in the backyard of a large house by the wharf, the three elders of the Thang Long Society gather together.
Outside the quiet flower hall, several big men were tightly guarded.
In the flower hall, the second elder Kou Lingxiao, who was in his fifties, said with a fierce expression: "Xia Mingtang's guy is really not enough to succeed and more than to lose. Now, for the sake of the safety of the Shenglong Society, it is no wonder that we are ruthless, and the old man will let people buy off the jailer and shut him up forever. ”
The Great Elder Tennazhong was over sixty years old, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and his demeanor was peaceful, he stroked his gray beard and said: "Second child, don't be impatient, it's not that step yet, this matter is still waiting for the little lady to come back ......." ”
"Big brother!" Kou Lingxiao interrupted Tena Zhong dissatisfiedly, "If Xia Mingtang can't be tortured and confess to our Ascending Dragon Society, then it's over." We can't take that risk. Little lady, hum, I don't like to hear it, this is a big woman, she has long forgotten that she is Queen Xiao! Look at her, what kind of thing is that Leon, it's worth her to put down her business and run to the fire well to toss around?! ”
"Second child, shut up!" Tian Nazhong let out a deep sigh, his eyes flashed, and he stared at Kou Lingxiao and said, "When the old guild master was dying, did you forget the oath we made together in front of the old guild master's bed?" ”
"I haven't forgotten, it's the little lady she forgot, she forgot her responsibility! I saw it early in the morning, and she had no intention of fulfilling the will of the old guild master for a long time! Big brother, don't say you didn't see it. ”
Tian Nazhong sighed secretly, in fact, it was not just a little girl like Xiao Luan's confidence that was fading, seeing that Li Tang's world was becoming more and more prosperous, and the so-called overthrow of Li Tang was like a flash.
The third child, Yang Tian, was around fifty years old, looking like a philistine shopkeeper, and hurriedly persuaded: "Second brother, now is not the time to talk about this, let's wait first, and wait for Xu Erlang to find out about Xia Mingtang's situation in prison." (To be continued......)
