In the cold winter season, the naked man is tied to the ground and stuffed with strips of cloth in his mouth to prevent him from biting and killing himself.

As Lin Mei walked into the secret room, the Shadow was whipping him on the back. Although it is the first time I have seen someone torture, he is not a kind-hearted person, "This method seems to be useless, people like him, I am afraid that he will not speak with torture alone?" ”

"Master, this place is not clean, let's wait outside for news." Qi Niang was really afraid that she would be soft-hearted for a while, and asked him to intercede.

"You misunderstood, I won't intercede for him, let alone speak for the enemy, but it's all like this, and he hasn't opened his mouth yet, I'm afraid that he has undergone strict training."

Qi Niang understood it, looked at the thirty-six sets of torture tools hanging on the wall, and sneered: "No matter how hard his mouth is, he can't withstand our torture in turn, I'm not afraid that he won't say it." ”

Lin Meishun looked at it, it was worthy of being a product of Chinese feudal society, and the set of torture instruments was full of traces, which showed that it had a long history, and sighed: "We are short of time, we really have to take turns to torture, if people die, we will give up all our efforts." ”

Qi Niang's brows lit up, she snatched the leather whip from the shadow's hand, whipped it a few times, and said viciously: "Do you say it or not?!" ”

The man squinted slightly, stared at the woman in front of him, smiled defiantly, and just didn't nod his head and beg for mercy.

The angry Qi Niang whipped a few more times.

Lin Mei really didn't have much effort to spend with him, so she glanced at the shadow of the secret room and said, "Okay Qi Niang, be careful that your hands hurt, go get some salt and chili peppers." ”

Qi Niang was stunned and puzzled: It can't be to cook human flesh, right? Shun asked casually, "Do you need a cauldron?" ”

Lin Mei glanced at her, looked at the meaning in her eyes, and frowned slightly: "What do you think, I dare to cook, do you dare to eat?" ”

Soon, the Shadow brought in two jars.

"Tie him to a chair, mix these two with some hot water, and pour them on the wound, even if he is not afraid of pain, he is not afraid of these two things."

Although the shadow was puzzled, he didn't ask much, he gave the order, and directly carried out the execution, only to see that the mixed water had just been poured on the prisoner's body, and he saw that his eyes widened, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out, and he was in a cold sweat in pain, and he kept shaking his head. The people who watched this scene felt a straight heart, but they didn't expect this simple condiment to be even more powerful than a leather whip.

Even Qi Niang's pores were terrified, her hairs stood up, and she looked at the new master, her eyes were complicated and indescribable: "How can such a woman be a good person, I'm afraid that even the King of Qi has taken a look."

"Do you think I'm cruel? But mercy to the enemy is cruelty to oneself, and I am not as kind as you think! I don't want to turn myself into an executioner unless I have to. Lin Mei glanced at her and said slowly.

Qi Niang was very ashamed when she heard this, she was a killer, she didn't know how many lives she had in her hands, and what identity she had to speculate and judge her. "The master is not wrong, it is our incompetence that makes the master bother."

After saying that, he ordered the shadow to pour mixed water on the man's body, and asked, "As long as you tell the truth, I will let you die comfortably, otherwise I will let you be tortured like this, just some water, and you can't kill people." ”

Xu is mental pain was far greater than the physical pain, and the man's eyes flashed with fear, so he had to close his eyes and nod.

Seeing that he finally nodded in agreement, Qi Niang ripped off the strip of cloth from his mouth, "Say, tell me everything you know." ”

"I am King Qin's person, not long ago, King Qin found out that the most critical thing in the treasure map was hidden in the Lin family, so he sent someone to keep an eye on the Lin family. But the annexation of the state has been broken, the power of the King of Qin is not as good as before, and now the imperial court has issued a sea fishing document, so we can't make a big deal about it, so we have to tie up the brother and family of the Lin family's housewife to Luoyang, so as to coerce him and force him to hand over his things. ”

These Lin Mei had already guessed a long time ago, and said lightly: "That's all? The eldest lady of the Lin family was framed in Chang'an City a few days ago, but you also arranged it? ”

"No, this has nothing to do with us, when we got the news and rushed to Luoyang, I heard that the eldest lady of the Lin family had been Xuanzhao into the palace, and King Qin thought it was the emperor's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, so he didn't be ruthless to the Lin family, but just sent someone to keep an eye on it."

Lin Mei suppressed the horror in her heart, and asked without changing her face, "What is the most critical thing with the treasure map?" Who told King Qin that things were hidden in the Lin family? ”

"This ...... I really don't know, but the source of the treasure map is the Luo family, I think although the people in the Luo family's West Mansion have already run away, they know about the treasure map, and the people in the Luo family's East Mansion. ”

Lin Mei understood it, and sure enough, it was confirmed that it was her own suspicion, I am afraid that this matter is a coincidence, and I bumped into it, so who is the person who designed to frame herself in Chang'an City, I am afraid that the mother-in-law will have to be arrested to reveal it, but I don't know if the emperor really knows that the jade pendant is in the Lin family. I couldn't help asking, "Where is the thief now?" ”

"Back to the master, the carriage escorting the thief's mother-in-law has arrived at the border of Luoyang, if nothing happens, it will arrive in Luoyang tomorrow."

"You go ahead and interrogate." I already know everything I should know, and there is no need to ask any more, so as not to arouse the suspicion of others. Besides, the Lin family is still implicated, so don't tell others about the jade pendant, and I don't know where Luo Sicheng's family fled to?

Qi Niang chased after her heel, and repeatedly confirmed: "The master really doesn't know that thing is in the Lin family?" ”

Lin Mei stopped, still calm: "You also heard, the treasure map comes from the Luo family, do you think that if I really have such a good thing, I will be able to hold it and not go treasure hunting?" It's bitter haha, go out early and return late to earn silver! ”

This is really not, with Qi Niang's understanding of her wealth obsessed temperament, I am afraid that I will go treasure hunting a long time ago. Knowing that he was at a loss, he smiled embarrassedly: "I don't mean that, I'm also worried about the safety of the Lin family, if King Qin doesn't get something, in case he really does ...... ruthless to the Lin family."

Lin Mei raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at her and smiled slightly: "I know that your most loyal master is still King Qi, and he wants to do things for King Qi, hoping that the treasure will fall into his hands." Although I cooperate with him in business, it does not mean that I can do things for him and be loyal to him, but you can rest assured, I never thought that one day I would be an enemy of him. ”

The corners of Qi Niang's mouth twitched, and she was speechless: I didn't expect her to be so smart that she could even guess what she thought in her heart! But what can I do, since ancient times, loyalty and righteousness are in a dilemma.

As the girl said, the prince confirmed that a large amount of silver was needed to make a notice. But some things are not as the girl thinks, the prince has been regarded as a thorn in the eye by the current one since he was a child, and it is rumored that his two brothers have a very good relationship, but outsiders don't know that the prince is just a chess piece in his hand, and now that he has great power, he wants to get rid of the thorn in his eye. has sent people to assassinate the prince several times, if it weren't for the prince's great fortune, I am afraid that he would have been killed by the knife. The prince has always known you as a friend, and he doesn't want to drag the Lin family into the water, so the people of the shadow do things for the Lin family, don't you have a little gratitude? ”

Gratitude? But if you want to lose your life, Lin Mei looked at her and said: "It's okay for you to be just cowardly and afraid of death, I can't watch the Lin family give their lives in vain." I'm just a businessman, I will remember the kindness of the prince, if you just want silver, this thing is easy to do, give me a while, I will give the silver, just ask the Lin family to be safe. ”
