Chapter Twenty-Eight: "The Gentleman on the Beam"
Time is like flowing water.
Two days have passed in the blink of an eye.
Bai Yujing had also traveled enough to play in the mountains and rivers, and was just about to go back to Fangling to make trouble, but suddenly felt that the jade talisman was broken.
Bai Yujing's sword frowned, and then turned into a thunderbolt and fled towards the place where the jade talisman was shattered.
........................ Dividing Lines.................................
The Rifle Inn was surrounded.
is not surrounded by others, but by the history of Fangzhou's assassination.
Because the thief who broke his family's incense inheritance was in this inn, but legend has it that the thief was extremely powerful, and the assassin Shi brought troops here.
Mengdie heard the movement outside, and saw the soldiers surrounding the inn from the window, and she intuitively felt that it was related to herself and Childe.
After all, Childe used his flying knife to castrate Childe Shi.
She probably was targeted when she went out to the market to buy something, so she exposed the inn where she and Childe are now.
So, she hurriedly took out the jade talisman hidden in her arms and gently held it in her hand.
Prepare to crush the jade talisman as soon as something happens.
After a while, there was a voice from below.
"Is there a handsome man and a woman living in your shop? Someone reported that the woman had entered your inn!"
"They're in room No. 3. ”
"Lead the way!"
After that, there was a burst of "stampede" upstairs and the sound of "banging" armor.
After a while, footsteps stopped outside the room.
Mengdie became a little nervous.
Although she is now an immortal maid, she is still just a weak woman, but she can't fight these soldiers.
Beads of sweat began to ooze from the palm of her hand holding the jade talisman.
But she quickly settled down, and sat down at the table as if nothing had happened.
"Smack!"
The door was pushed open, and more than a dozen soldiers walked in, glanced at Mengdie, and stood in two columns.
After a while, a middle-aged man with beautiful hair walked in, followed by a young man with a gloomy face.
Mengdie opened her eyes and saw that the young man with a gloomy face was indeed the young man on horseback who had been abolished by his son in the market two days ago.
Mengdie knew that she couldn't resist these people, so she pinched it hard and crushed the jade talisman in her hand.
When the young man saw Mengdie, he immediately pointed at her and shouted to the middle-aged man in front of him: "It's them, there is another man with her, and it is that man who makes the child suffer this great humiliation." ”
When the beautiful middle-aged man heard this, he glanced at Mengdie, and asked lightly, "What about the man who is with you?"
After Mengdie crushed the jade talisman, she was not nervous.
Because she knew that with Gongzi's supernatural powers, she must have arrived nearby, but she didn't appear.
She replied indifferently to the middle-aged man: "What kind of man is with the little woman? Your Excellency should not tarnish people's innocence out of thin air. ”
The beautiful middle-aged man frowned, and ordered the soldiers on the left and right: "Search!"
Several soldiers searched the house, under the bed, in the cupboard, and behind the curtains, but found nothing.
The beautiful middle-aged man looked at Mengdie, who was sitting calmly at the table, and frowned.
He couldn't understand why this woman was so calm.
Then he said loudly to Mengdie: "This official is the assassin of Benzhou, if you confess the location of that man, this official can let you go? ”
The young man said beside him: "Father, that thief is very powerful, and he has supernatural skills, so don't be careless." ”
The beautiful middle-aged man listened, shook his head and said, "My son, you are too worried." When the father was in the capital of God, what had he not seen?
Even the world-famous Maoshan Taoist Sima Chengzhen didn't see him have any supernatural skills, and it was expected that this thief was just a ranger with more strength and a secret weapon, waiting for his father to lead the army to capture him. ”
After speaking, he gritted his teeth and said: "If you dare to break my Zhao family's incense, this official will definitely cut him with a thousand knives!"
When the young man heard this, a cruel look appeared in his eyes.
"Your Excellency's words are really rude. There are no men in the first place, why would they threaten the little woman with that murderous bone drunken torture?" Mengdie replied calmly.
The punishment of bone drunkenness is a very cruel criminal law, which is actually an upgraded version of Renbi, invented by Wu Zetian.
That is, to cut off both hands and legs, to cut off the tongue, to gouge out both eyes, and to stop the bleeding, and put them in a large jar full of wine.
In the wine urn, unable to move, while enduring the oppression of the narrow space of the wine urn, coupled with the effect of alcohol, slowly the whole body from severe pain to numbness, and the mind is sober, thirsty, hungry, from time to time the smell of wine into the nose, that feeling can be imagined, the so-called survival can not be, death can not be more than this!
However, Mengdie did not panic at all, she knew that Gongzi Bai Yujing must have arrived nearby, and she would definitely come out once she was in danger.
The beautiful middle-aged man was still unmoved when he saw Mengdie, and his brows tightened even more.
He didn't understand what the woman in front of him relied on, so that she was not in a hurry all the time, and even the punishment of bone drunkenness could not scare her.
Was that man giving her confidence? Was that man so powerful?
But even if that man is really powerful, she is now in the hands of this official, how can she be so calm?
Could it be that this is done on purpose, so that the official can cast a mouse trap?
The beautiful middle-aged man looked at Mengdie a few more times, a hint of discoloration flashed in his eyes, and he smiled and ordered everyone around him: "Wait until you go out first." ”
The young man looked at Mengdie and asked, "Father, ...... you?"
The beautiful middle-aged man reprimanded: "Get out." ”
The young man glanced at Mengdie again and reluctantly agreed: "Yes." ”
And they withdrew, and closed the door.
The beautiful middle-aged man smiled and said to Mengdie: "I want to see if you will be so calm in the face of your chastity?"
When Mengdie heard this, she frowned: "What does Your Excellency Assassin Shi mean?"
"What do you mean? What do you say? That thief destroyed my Zhao family's incense, and this official will use his woman to renew the incense for my Zhao family today. The middle-aged man with beautiful hair said fiercely.
"Your Excellency Assassin Shi first transferred troops to take care of private affairs, and now he wants to insult the woman of the good family, aren't you afraid of the impeachment of Yushi?" Mengdie asked with a frown.
When the beautiful middle-aged man heard this, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and he immediately made up his mind:
"It's come to this, what are you afraid of?"
After speaking, he walked up to Mengdie.
"Why?"
At this moment, a warm voice came from above.
The beautiful middle-aged man looked up and saw a slender man in purple lying on the beam of the room with his legs crossed, his head resting on his hands, his eyes slightly closed.
A glimpse of the side face, handsome and peerless, peerless.
It was Bai Yujing.
"Are you a thief of the eunuch?" said the beautiful middle-aged man pointing at Bai Yujing.
When the people outside heard the movement, they opened the door all of a sudden, and they all saw Bai Yujing lying on the beams of the room.
More than a dozen soldiers put their hands on the hilt of their knives and looked at Bai Yujing.
Bai Yujing slowly opened his eyes, turned into a cloud of green smoke, and instantly appeared on the ground.
"Woooo ”
The soldiers instantly pulled out the knives in their scabbards and pointed them at Bai Yujing.
