Under the black and yellow ground, several criss-crossing tunnels take Liu's Mansion as the center, extend in all directions, go out according to the secret passage, and finally find that there are several secret passages, some of the secluded streets and alleys in the city, and some are at the foot of the mountains outside the city.

In the low and narrow passageway, the ragged men walked in it with their backs bent over, and at a cursory glance, they only thought that the tunnel was low and had to bend down, but if they looked closely, they could see that they seemed to be carrying something in their arms.

Xu Qingyan took a closer look, and saw that in the dim tunnel, there seemed to be a touch of silver flashing between the corners of her clothes.

"Silver Mine! You're actually mining silver privately! “

I didn't know that she had divine sense, Liu Laohu heard this, and felt that the person in front of him was like a ghost: "You..... How do you know!! “

"Silver ore is controlled by the imperial court, and private mining is prohibited, otherwise it will be regarded as a reverse crime, but it will punish the nine clans!"

The crime was revealed, and at this point, Liu Laohu also let it go, no matter how Xu Qingyan knew, straightened his waist and said stiffly: "What's the matter, if people don't do it, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed!" I bought the mine, and since I found the silver mine, it should also belong to me, what is wrong with my mining, why should I hand it over to the imperial court! “

"I don't care about your private silver mining, but you shouldn't have forcibly arrested innocent villagers to mine for you, there is no ventilation in the dark tunnel for a long time, and in the long run, all these workers will be poisoned and poisoned to death, you are taking human lives to fill your greed. Not only that, but you also used means to coerce their families, so that the villagers of Huangshui Village were uneasy and frightened. There are also evil things such as robbing people's daughters and forcibly levying protection money, and you have done a lot of evil things. With all these evil deeds you have done, I will spare you today. ”

"The real dog takes the mouse and takes care of the family affairs, the government doesn't care about these things, which idle business are you in charge of!"

"If the road is uneven, someone will step on it, and if it is uneven, someone will take care of it. I tell you, justice may be late, but it will never be absent! You think that no one can cure you, you don't know what people are doing, the sky is watching, and today God sent me to collect you. “

"Hahaha....... Left is just a dead word, if there is a kind, come on, I want to see who dies first! As he spoke, Liu Laohu had already pulled out his waist knife and killed Xu Qingyan.

Retracting the fire talisman on her fingertips, Xu Qingyan quickly took out her palm, snatched her waist knife with one move, and then turned her hand, and the blade pointed at Liu Laohu: "If you want to die, it's not that easy!" As he spoke, he slashed a few times, and all his tendons and tendons were broken.

"Ah...... Ah......" Liu Laohu fell to the ground in severe pain, and cursed in his mouth: "You demon girl, kill me if you have a kind." “

"Hmph, to a wicked person like you, wouldn't it be cheaper to kill you with a knife, don't worry, I will keep you alive for a few days!"

"Enchantress, you enchantress ..... You" The rest of the curse died down after Xu Qingyan threw out a silver needle.

Liu Laohu was still cursing, but the thugs who were surrounding him were so frightened that they retreated again and again, and under this successive blows, their original fighting spirit and confidence had already collapsed.

After Xu Qingyan swept over with a look, she immediately put down the guy in her hand and knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "The woman spares her life, the woman spares her life, ......!"

In the sound of begging for mercy, Xu Qingyan only watched quietly, until everyone sweated and felt that the air was solidified, and then opened her mouth: "I haven't thought about what to do with you, but girl, I'm not a murderous person, if any of you are forced to be helpless and your hands are clean and don't touch people's lives, I can let you live." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately scrambled to speak.

"I.... I haven't killed anyone, and I came to Liu's Mansion to be a thug because Liu Laohu threatened his wife at home. A thirty-year-old middle-aged man was the first to speak, kowtowing, and replied: "I hope the girl raises her noble hand and lets me go home." ”

"Oh, is that true?" Xu Qingyan asked the other thugs at the scene.

Of course, she couldn't believe a person's one-sided words.

The thugs who were swept by her eyes looked at each other in pairs, hesitating not to know whether to say it or not.

Seeing this, Xu Qingyan said again: "If you know the truth, you can report it, and once you sit down, the person who reports it can be sent lightly." ”

As soon as these words came out, the people who were hesitant before immediately became firm, after all, the dead Dao friends are not dead and poor, and they can fight for one more chance for themselves, who cares!

"He's telling a lie." A young man in his early twenties stood up and said: "His real name is Liu Laogen, he is a distant cousin of Liu Laohu, he defected half a year ago, he was not forced at all, and he also killed an old man selling vegetables on West Street last month." “

"You are talking nonsense, that old man obviously pushed and fell to his death, what does it have to do with me!" Liu Laogen shouted.

"Fuck you, that old man didn't die at all after I pushed him, it was you who were worried about someone's granddaughter, and you chased after him and made up for it twice, so you kicked the old man to death and didn't defile me." The man named Da Yong stood up to refute it.

"Fart, you think that if you say that, you will be clean, ten days ago, you went to Huayue Building to find a girl......."

In this way, Xu Qingyan only said one word, and they began to bite each other, shaking out all the bad things that the other party had done.

As the saying goes, the people around you who are most looking forward to your bad luck are the ones around you, and there are some things that you may not remember yourself, but they remember them clearly.

"Stop, say one by one."

Half an hour later, Xu Qingyan sorted out the matter according to the information provided by several parties, a total of thirty-eight thugs, only five newcomers have not done bad things with human life, and the others have some things on their hands.

Xu Qingyan called the five people to him: "Since you didn't participate in the evil, I'll let you go, but now that my business is not done, the five of you will go to the hall and wait first." ”

It's very good to have a chance to live, although I'm worried that she will backtrack, but in the case of not being able to beat others, it's better to obediently obey orders.

The five people went into the hall according to their words, and there were still thirty-three thugs present, eight of whom were killed by Xu Qingyan with a knife, and the remaining twenty-five people belonged to the kind that was not good or bad, that is, the kind that had done bad things, but no one died.

This kind of person Xu Qingyan will not let go lightly, but she doesn't want to kill with a knife, after thinking for a while, she has an idea in her heart.

"Do you want to live?" She asked

"Yes, yes." Everyone nodded like garlic.

"Okay, now, there is a chance for you to make meritorious contributions, if you do a good job, I will spare you from the death penalty, maybe I can give you a future, if you still don't change your life, and you still want to do evil, then I will kill him alive!!"

"Don't dare, don't dare, we must listen to the heroine's guilt and meritorious service."

"Okay, then from now on, divide seven people to go down to the tunnel, notify all the underground workers to come out of the secret passage in the backyard, and the remaining eighteen people will go to the four secret passages in the city, and arrest all the overseers who are guarding there, and not one of them will be allowed to escape!!"

"Yes." The crowd responded

"Bring it here after you catch it, but remember, don't play tricks on me, you have seen what happened just now, and you have seen my methods, if anyone dares to run away halfway........"

"No, no, don't dare, don't dare."

"That's good, let's go"

At the sound of the order, the thugs immediately scattered in all directions, and no one wanted to stay where they were and continue to bear the pressure.
