Chapter 281: Hushan extorted confessions
The veterinarian has healed the tiger's injuries. Leng Yi ordered all the guards and keepers to gather in the room at the door and not to come out. Let his retinue of eunuchs and palace maids guard the door.
Leng Yi came to Hushan alone.
At the foot of Tiger Mountain, the dead tiger has been carried away, and only the four injured tigers are lying on Tiger Mountain, with a lot of bandages wrapped around their bodies. Two of them were very seriously injured and couldn't get up, and the remaining two, because Leng Yi killed the Marshal of the Tiger King in time and saved them, all the injuries were relatively light, and they could still move around at will and eat.
Not long after, several eunuchs and palace maids came carrying a person in a sedan chair, and the man was tied hand and foot, and he had been knocked unconscious. Thrown on the ground.
Leng Yi stepped forward to take a look, and sure enough, it was the vicious whip-wielding maid Xue'e.
Leng Yi said to the palace maids and eunuchs: "You all go out, stand guard at the gate of the wall, no one is allowed to come in, this official will interrogate her here alone!" ”
The palace maids and eunuchs hurriedly agreed, left Hushan one by one, and retreated to the door.
Leng Yi untied the ropes on her body, tied her legs, and then, pulled off the hairpin on her head, and cut her left and right arms hard, and blood flowed immediately.
Under the pain, Xue'e slowly woke up, opened her eyes, and before she could see the situation around her clearly, she had already risen up, jumped over the guardrail, and fell down.
Xue'e let out a long scream, and saw that her head was about to hit the stone below, and her brain burst to death, and suddenly, with a bang, stopped in mid-air, and at the same time, she felt a sharp pain in her feet, as if something had been deeply stuck in her ankles.
Xue'e looked up vigorously (she was supposed to be bowing, but she was hanging upside down, and everything became her head), only to see that she was hanging, a rope tied to her ankles, and tied up to the guardrail. And next to the guardrail, there was a person lying on his stomach, looking at her coldly.
This person is the same royal belt Leng Yi who brought people to the dormitory to investigate the case just now!
Xue'e's heart sank, could it be that this person was dissatisfied with his previous threat, so he beat himself up? I can't say it, I can only give in first, and then look for him after I get out of trouble.
After thinking about it, Xue'e tried her best to ease her tone: "Master Leng, the slave didn't listen to what she said just now, and offended the master, please don't remember the villain, forgive the villain...... Ouch mom!" My hand! My hand is broken! Tiger! Tigers eat people! Help! ”
But it turned out that Xue'e was looking up to talk to Leng Yi, her two hands hung down weakly, and a tiger jumped over and bit off half of her palm!
Leng Yi put her down just at the right height, just a few inches lower than the highest height that the tiger could reach when he struggled to jump, so this bite only bit off half of Xue'e's palm.
Xue'e died in pain, and quickly took her hands up. Place on your chest. When I looked closely, half of my right hand was gone, and only a few finger bones remained, dripping with blood and shocking. She was in pain and scared, screaming for help. At the same time, when I looked around, I found that she had been dropped in Tiger Mountain. She immediately knew that this place was very secluded, and it was impossible for people outside to hear the screams inside, even if she tried all her strength to call for help.
When she looked down, she saw the two tigers below jumping up to bite Xue'e. Looking at the tiger's bloody mouth, Xue'e was terrified, and she used her left hand to squeeze her right wrist so that the blood would not flow too fast. At the same time, try to bend your body upwards and try to keep your head as far away from the mouth of the tiger that is constantly jumping below.
She gasped, tried to calm herself down, and smiled at Leng Yi at the guardrail above: "Master Leng, the slave and maid are wrong, I offended you, it's just because the slave and maid must be loyal to the mother and dare not disobey, so I said that, I beg the lord to spare my life, let the slave and maid go......"
At the beginning, Xue'e felt a little embarrassed to plead, but seeing Leng Yi looking at her coldly without saying a word, and the severe pain of her right hand and strangled feet that were bitten off by the tiger became more and more unbearable. At the same time, the strength of her whole body was rapidly fading, and even the strength to bend her upper body was soon gone.
Her first explanation of the pleading of the surname quickly turned into a naked pleading. But no matter what she said, Leng Yi above didn't speak, just looked at her quietly, as if watching a brilliant performance.
Xue'e finally had no strength to keep her body bent upward, and her body drooped.
Immediately, she understood the price of doing so, that is, a tiger that jumped up and bit a handful of her hair. There was a thud, followed by the miserable cry of Xue'e, and a handful of her hair with a piece of her scalp was torn alive by the tiger!
She didn't know where the strength came from, so she immediately bent her body up, looked at Leng Yi and screamed: "Spare your life!" Master, you can let me do anything, spare my life! Woowoo"
Leng Yi finally spoke, his voice was slow and methodical, and he was not in a hurry at all: "Okay, you can tell me, what happened to the thirteen missing palace maids in your dormitory." - Remember, don't try to lie to me, or you'll soon know the consequences of doing so. ”
"I say! I say! As long as you spare the slave's surname, the slave will tell you everything. - There are thirteen palace maids missing, but the slaves really don't know that they have died in the Tiger Mountain, really. ”
"You're lying!" Leng Yi said: "The palace maids in your dormitory have all said that you called them there at that time. How could you not know where they went? ”
"The slave didn't lie, sir. At that time, Niangniang asked the slave maid to call a palace maid, she wanted to watch the tiger eat people. ――I didn't really eat it. She asked a few of us to tie the feet of the palace maid who had been called until she hung it, cut her hands, and put her into the Tiger Mountain. Watch the tiger jump up and bite their hands, their claws scratching them bloody. Hear them screaming in fright. The mother was very happy. When you get tired of playing, pull them up and let them go. Let them go back. That's it. ”
"And when did they go missing?"
"This slave really doesn't know, because after letting them go, she doesn't care. There are a lot of palace maids in the dormitory, and we don't know if they don't report who they don't report to us. That's when they were let go. We don't know who caught them and threw them into Tiger Mountain. -- The slave and maid are telling the truth in every word, please see the master! - Ouch! My head, help! ”
She said that she was weak, and her head hung down again, and as a result, a piece of her scalp was ripped off by a tiger's paw! The blood flowed more, and the two tigers below were even crazier. Even the other two wounded tigers were stimulated by the human blood, and struggled to get up, staggering and staggering over, licking and devouring the human blood dripping from the ground. This scared the blood even more out of her mind. pleading.
Leng Yi looked at her quietly, as if he hadn't heard her screams at all. Said slowly: "You're lying! ”
"The slave didn't lie! Master, the slave can swear that everything the slave and maid say is true, and there is no lie. The old man spares his life! ”
"You're not telling the truth!" Leng Yi said coldly: "You and your mother care about people's lives, you don't take other people's surnames and lives as the same thing at all, you only care about your own happiness and happiness, where do you care about other people's lives and deaths!" So, you must have thrown these thirteen palace maids into Tiger Mountain to feed the tigers! The official is right! ”
"No! Big man! Not really! They were really let go. How they disappeared later, the slave maid also found out just now. The slave and maid are telling the truth. - Ahh ”
Xue'e was hung upside down, her whole body had no strength, and her hands also fell down, and as a result, the tiger jumped up and bit off half of the palm of her other hand! She screamed in pain.
Leng Yi said coldly: "If you don't tell the truth again, don't want your two hands!" ”
Xue'e hung upside down, and because of the blood loss and severe pain, her whole head was covered. She muttered, "The slave is telling the truth......"
"It's clear that you threw thirteen palace maids into Tiger Mountain for the tiger to eat, and you still dare to quibble! Since you insist on shielding your mother-in-law and do not hesitate to die for this, then good, this official will fulfill you and let you also taste the taste of being eaten by tigers! ”
Then, Xue'e felt her body slowly descend. She was terrified and tried to bend her body to avoid the tiger, but it had been hanging upside down for so long that all her strength had been drained. She couldn't bend even the slightest bit anymore. Even her arms couldn't be withdrawn.
So, the tiger that jumped high bit off half of her already mutilated right palm!
Xue'e didn't even have the strength to scream: "Big master......, spare your life!" ”
"If you want to spare your life, you will truthfully invite you and your mother to throw thirteen palace maids into Tiger Mountain to feed the tigers!"
"The slave maid is willing to recruit ......, it is the mother's idea, and she asked the slave maid to throw the thirteen palace maids into Tiger Mountain. I beg the lord to spare his life. ”
"Why did you want you to throw these palace maids into Tiger Mountain?"
"Because of ......, because Niangniang's surname is ferocious, I like to watch tigers eat people......"
Leng Yi sneered: "I'm afraid your purpose is not only that, right?" You put the palace maids into Tiger Mountain, is it just to watch the tiger eat people? ”
"......" Xue'e didn't know how to answer, "My lord, this wicked woman Daji must have more than that. It's just ......, the slave is dull, and she can't see through her sinister intentions......"
"You don't expect to push things off. Hum! - You know that these tigers were raised by Madame Hua Rui, and she will one day come to Tiger Mountain to play with these tigers, so you feed these tigers with living people, so that they can improve their wild surnames, so that as long as Hua Rui Niangniang goes to Tiger Mountain, once the tigers smell blood, it is very likely that the wild surnames will attack, and Hua Rui Niangniang may be eaten by these tigers! Your goal is to kill Blossom Lady in this way! Right? ”
"Huh? No, no, it's not......"
