Ying Jin received an order from Emperor Yan and began to investigate the killing of Feng Wan'er. He realized that Emperor Yan attached great importance to this matter, so he also raised the spirit of more than a dozen points.

At the beginning of the investigation, he did not immediately go to Jiaolan Pavilion to ask the group of dancing girls, but returned to the Immortal Emperor Pavilion first, because there was a suspicion in his heart.

Passing through the two terrifying male lions, he walked towards the raised boulders on the cliff, the wind under the cliff was slow, echoing a terrible cry in his ears, and over the cliff, the words "Hades Emperor Pavilion" appeared on the irregular boulder in front of him, he glanced at it and walked straight in.

The two disciples in the pavilion who were guarding the gate of the Immortal Emperor Pavilion wearing black brocade robes and silver masks immediately knelt down respectfully when they saw the Immortal Brocade coming, "See the Great Protector." ”

The face of the dark brocade was cold and waveless, and he only asked: "The second master is here?" ”

"Returning to the great protector, the second master is in the cabinet. At this time, Xuan Ting's lieutenant who had just been captured should be interrogated. ”

"......" he stared at him, "Xuan Ting's lieutenant? When was it caught? ”

"Early this morning."

"What are you doing with him?"

"The emperor wants to know all the current military layouts of Xuan Ting, so he ordered the second master to arrest this person."

He pondered for a moment and said coldly, "Okay, I see." After finishing speaking, he walked straight towards the dungeon of the Immortal Emperor Pavilion.

The dungeon of the Immortal Pavilion was extremely dark, and the sound of water dripping on the ground could be heard everywhere. The dungeon is adjacent to the water dungeon, which is why it is so wet. There is a torch above each door of the dungeon, which illuminates the dungeon and reflects the faces of the prisoners in the cells, so that the person being interrogated can be quickly found when preparing for trial.

The people locked up in the prison cells of the Hades Pavilion are either important members of the imperial court, killers of the rivers and lakes, or heinous people.

The Pavilion of the Emperor of the Underworld was not only the place established by Emperor Yan in order to control the imperial court, but also secretly did a lot of chivalrous and righteous deeds. Whenever there is a heinous person on the rivers and lakes, Emperor Yan will order that this person be arrested, without interrogation, and put in a prison cell for a lifetime. This is his punishment for the wicked.

It's just that the people in the market and the people in the rivers and lakes were already frightened when they heard the three words of the Underworld Pavilion, and they didn't know that the Underworld Pavilion had also done a lot of good things secretly.

When I got to the end, I saw the interrogation room, and as far as the eye could see, there were only two disciples guarding the interrogation room, but there was no deputy general of Ming Mei and Xuan Ting.

"Where is the second master?"

One of the disciples immediately said, "The second master took Xuan Ting's hard-mouthed lieutenant to the water prison. ”

Water Prison ...... Generally, only people who are extremely vicious or have too strict mouths and don't say anything will go, and it seems that this Xuan Ting's deputy will be the latter.

It's just that Xuan Ting's deputy general knows two people, one is called Li Zhong, who has followed Xuan Ting for many years. One is called Shi Shenshu, who has just been promoted. So who was caught this time?

He was a little curious.

Hearing the sound of the mechanism being activated next door, he immediately headed towards the water prison, only to see that Li Zhong was tied to a stone pillar in the center of the water prison, his body was covered with the marks of being whipped, and he was dripping with blood, and he was dying. At the same time, water from the dungeon poured out of the ground and soon flooded to his bare feet and then his knees...... Waist...... Neck......

"Stop!" The black-clothed Mingmei had a cold face, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she said: "Li Zhong, there is a good saying, heroes don't suffer immediate losses, as long as you tell Xuan Ting's military layout, I will let you go." Otherwise, I will give you a taste of this dungeon today! ”

"Phew!" The dying Xuan Ting spat at her fiercely, his eyelids were slightly raised, revealing cloudy eyes, and when he looked up at her, his eyes were clear and resolute, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a contemptuous smile, and he said word by word: "Wishful thinking!" ”

"Someone!" A trace of hideousness crossed her innocent eyes, and she said loudly: "Release the water!" ”

The water level immediately rose, and soon it was submerged.

Mingmei, who didn't ask anything, was very angry, turned around and prepared to get out of the water prison, when she found the Mingjin standing not far from her side, and said in surprise: "Brother Mingjin, why are you here?" ”

Stygian Jin's eyes withdrew from the body of Li Zhong in the water prison, looked at her and said, "I heard that the disciples in the pavilion said that you are interrogating Li Zhong, so come and take a look." After a pause, he asked, "Have you asked about Xuan Ting's military layout?" ”

She shook her head helplessly: "This Li Zhong's mouth is too hard, just now you pass through the interrogation room of the dungeon, you should be able to see the torture on the ground." All those tortures had been used on him, but ...... I didn't even get anything out of it. In desperation, he had to come to the water prison, who knew that he was fearless and would rather die than give in! ”

He laughed, "He's the first one who can make you embarrassed." ”

"Humph!" She clasped her hands around her chest, and her little face was full of displeasure: "Brother Mingjin, is this making fun of me?" ”

"How dare I!" He immediately smiled and said, "But since this Li Zhong is so important, it's better for you to keep his life, otherwise you will really get nothing." ”

Styx pondered Shen Jin's words and agreed, but even so, he couldn't immediately release Li Zhong from the water prison, and he had to let him taste the water prison again, and then release him when he was exhausted.

"That's it! Brother Mingjin, I have my own opinions. Then he glanced back at Li Zhong in the dungeon, and saw that he sometimes poked his head out with great effort, and his will to survive was beyond ordinary people, and a trace of compassion suddenly rose in his heart. frowned slightly, immediately withdrew his eyes, looked at Mingjin and said, "Let's go, let's go to my room, I bought a jar of good wine today, you can accompany me to drink a few glasses." ”

He happened to ask her about something, and it was so good.

"Okay."

Before the two left, Ming Mei explained to the disciples in the cell, telling them that after an hour, he would be released from the water prison and put in the dungeon.

Inside the room.

She first poured a glass of wine for Mingjin, and then poured a glass for herself, picked up the wine glass in front of her without drinking, her eyes crossed a touch of deep meaning, and then said slowly with him: "Brother Jin, in fact, you came to me today for something, right?" ”

He laughed: "How can you see it?" ”

"That's what you are, you have a cold look on the outside, but some subtle expressions on your face can betray you."

He shook his head helplessly, picked up the wine in front of him and put it in his mouth, slowly put down the wine glass, looked at her and said, "Actually, it's not, it's because we grew up together, and you know me too well, so I can't hide anything from you." ”

She nodded thoughtfully and said, "It seems to be the same." And he put the wine in his mouth.

She still wanted to drink, and reached out to get the wine jar, but at this moment, Mingjin pressed her hand on the wine jar, looked at her with fixed eyes, and said, "Mei'er, I do have something to ask you." ”

With a touch of deep meaning in his eyes, he took his hand away, poured the wine, and said, "Brother Jin wants to ask whatever he wants, why don't you let me drink?" As she spoke, she picked up her full glass and looked at him with a smile.

Looking at the innocent smile in her eyes, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

After struggling for a moment, she looked at her with fixed eyes, and said word by word: "Feng Wan'er is not your ......?"

"Yes!"

Before he could finish his words, she replied.

He looked at the fearless light in her eyes, and frowned: "Why? Isn't she your helper? Without her, you wouldn't have been able to kill Qu Xian Ge and blame Asa-san. ”

"But the plan failed, didn't it? Qu Xiange's death was just a result of Asa-san being imprisoned in a dungeon for one night, and this result was not what I wanted. She smelled the wine, and suddenly she had no interest in drinking it, and put it on the table casually.

"You killed Feng Wan'er because of this?"

She propped her chin on her head, a pair of big eyes blinking and blinking, there were no waves in her eyes, and she was a little ruthless: "That's not it, I haven't been careful to this point." With a tactful look in his eyes, he looked at the dark brocade and said quietly: "I killed her because when I went to look for her last night, Assan-san was also there, and he was tricking her words." I was afraid that I would be exposed, so I killed her. ”
