The man in black laughed and said, "Senior Brother Leng is so powerful, he actually recognized me at once." After that, the man in black took off the black cloth covering his face, revealing a slightly immature face, only to see that he was about seventeen or eighteen years old, medium build, with straight eyebrows, and a gentle smile always hanging on his face, making people feel like a spring breeze, with long hair mopping the floor, obviously also a person from the Ghost Flame Gate.

The black-clothed young man bowed his hand to the pure abbot and said, "Junior Ghost Yanmen Ming Wenlin, see Master Abbot." ”

"The little donor doesn't need to be polite, I don't know why the little donor came to visit late at night, not only disrespectful to my brother's body, but also hiding behind the Buddha statue and not knowing what to do, dare to ask the donor what to explain?" asked Master Qingjing.

Ming Weilin was about to answer, but Leng Tianfeng suddenly waved his hand to stop him, and then said in a cold voice: "Under Leng Tianfeng." ”

Hearing his name, Master Qingjian on the side couldn't help but shout: "Oh, that kid, you killed my junior brother Qingming, and you didn't pay for your life." "Without saying a word, he has already used enough internal strength to fight Leng Tianfeng to the death.

"Senior Brother Qingjian, do it slowly, I still have something to ask," the abbot of Qingjing stopped Master Qingjian, and then asked Leng Tianfeng, "Young Brother Leng the day before yesterday, you did harm to my junior brother Qingjing." ”

"What's the difference between yes and no? Don't you already think I'm the murderer, so what's there to ask? Leng Tianfeng folded his arms around his chest, his expression was cold and arrogant, and he said to the pure abbot with disdain.

"Amitabha, there is no need for Leng Gongzi to be angry," Master Qingjing said indifferently, "Although we have doubts, we have not decided that you are the murderer, and we are just suspicious, so please forgive Gongzi." ”

"Oh, I didn't expect to make several masters wonder, I'm really honored. Leng Tianfeng sneered, "To be honest, I just heard that I killed someone in Shaolin Temple, so I came over to see who I killed." ”

The abbot of Qingjing stopped Master Qingjian, who was about to get angry, and then asked calmly: "Listen to Gongzi, then this murderer is not you." ”

"Hehe, is there anything that can be said clearly about the things on the rivers and lakes, I said it's me, is it me, I said it's not me, isn't it me?" Leng Tianfeng still dismissed, "I don't care about what the rivers and lakes say, it's meaningless for me to defend myself, even if I don't admit to knowing what I killed, will you believe it?"

Ming Weilin, who was on the side, heard Leng Tianfeng's words with thorns, and couldn't help but shake his head secretly, and secretly thought to himself: "It's still that stinky temper." He had to hurriedly interject, "Pure Abbot, please forgive me, my senior brother has had a strange temper since he was a child, and he never defends himself even if he is wronged, but I believe that it is definitely not my senior brother's doing." ”

At this time, Master Qingkong, who had been standing aside but had never made a sound, suddenly said: "Amitabha, may I ask if the Ming donor has any evidence to prove the innocence of the cold donor." ”

Ming Weilin first turned his head to look at Leng Tianfeng, then turned his head to look at Qingkong, and shook his head gently: "No." He paused for a moment and continued, "My senior brother used to work for Dongchang, so he has a bad reputation in the rivers and lakes, saying that he aided and abetted the abuse, etc., but dare to ask the three masters, have you ever heard him kill innocents indiscriminately on the rivers and lakes? Not to mention that he has no grievances with Shaolin, why did he kill Master Qingming? Have you thought about the details?"

The three eminent monks did not immediately reply, but thought about it. Indeed, Dongchang's suppression of Jianghu forces made the Jianghu people hostile to Leng Tianfeng, but Leng Tianfeng, as a Jinyiwei directly under Dongchang, was mostly sent as secret agents, mostly infiltrating to spy on news, pacifying coastal Japanese and other important court affairs, and did not have much contact with people in the rivers and lakes, and never killed people in the rivers and lakes for no reason. Therefore, Leng Tianfeng's bad reputation is mostly dragged down by Dongchang, but there has never been any bad deeds in the rivers and lakes, if Leng Tianfeng killed Shaolin monks for no reason, this matter is indeed unreasonable, not to mention that Leng Tianfeng has broken away from Dongchang at this time, let alone be sent by Dongchang, on the contrary, the possibility of being framed by Dongchang is not small.

The three monks looked at each other, pondered for a long time, and Master Qingkong took the lead in speaking: "Amitabha, what Master Ming said is indeed good, although Leng Gongzi was under the jurisdiction of Dongchang before, but he has his own style and bones, and he has never been a disaster for martial arts, so we can't be sure that the murderer is Leng Gongzi, but Lao Wei still wants to ask Leng Gongzi, my junior brother died under the hands of Bingquan, I don't know how to explain." ”

Ming Weilin heard this, and wanted to say something, but after all, he didn't speak, indeed, Bing Quanzhang is not something that anyone can learn, even in the Ghost Yan Sect, only Leng Tianfeng can practice, which has also made the disciples of the Ghost Yan Sect secretly jealous.

"Hmph, there is no explanation," Leng Tianfeng snorted coldly, "Those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid, and I don't bother to explain." ”

"Young Master Leng, Lao Qu has an idea," the pure abbot interjected, "Although Gongzi doesn't want to explain, but from your words, you can hear that you don't admit that you are the murderer, but there are many questions here, so Lao Qu wants to ask Leng Gongzi and Ming Gongzi to live in our temple first, and when the matter is clear, although the two are leaving, Shaolin will never wronged a good person." ”

"What, do you want to forcibly leave me behind?" Leng Tianfeng said with a sneer, his left hand already holding the hilt of the Heavenly Soul Sword with his backhand.

"Leng Gongzi, this is also for your good, we Shaolin are just to find out the truth, we don't mean to embarrass Gongzi, if Gongzi can't agree, don't blame Lao Wei for leaving Gongzi here, Amitabha. The abbot said indifferently.

"Okay, then I will meet the three senior monks of Shaolin and see how you leave me. ”

In the dim cell, only a small oil lamp was lit, and the flickering light of the fire faintly reflected the vague outlines of the various torture instruments hanging on the wall, and the blood stained the wall, telling a tragic story.

Suddenly, a cry of pain resounded throughout the prison, and for a time all the prisoners in the cells could not help but be awakened, and the night that had been silent turned into a terrible nightmare, and every prisoner could not help but tremble, lest it would be themselves who were tortured by the inhuman torture.

This is the edict prison, the edict of the Jinyi Guard, the edict prison that is more terrifying than the eighteen layers of hell in the eyes of the world.

Since the establishment of the Jinyi Guard in the Hongwu period, the edict prison will be handled by the Beizhen Fu Division, can directly torture and torture, take the order to act, the criminal department, Dali Temple, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and other three legal divisions have no right to intervene, the prison "water and fire are invulnerable, the gas of the epidemic is full of prison", the criminal law of the edict is extremely cruel, a total of 18 tortures.

A low-level brocade guard picked up a basin of cold water to wake up the prisoner who had just fainted, and took the trouble to pick up a leather whip and continue to whip the prisoner who had just woken up. There is a wooden table next to it, and in front of the table sits a brocade-clothed guard, drinking old flower carvings and eating side dishes, but his eyes are full of smiles.

One of his subordinates waved his fan beside him and said with a sneer: "My lord, you are here to taste wine, and the rest of the rough work will be handed over to the little ones, and you are guaranteed to be satisfied." ”

The hundred households drank a glass of wine and said with a smile: "It's still your kid who is sensible, but this person is a key criminal in Dongchang, and his subordinates are a little measured, don't beat him to death, it's not good to deal with him when the time comes." ”

"Adults can rest assured, small ones understand. The subordinate hurriedly beckoned the others to continue to intensify the torture of the prisoner.

The hundred households looked at the prisoner who had no intact skin on his body, although he continued to smile on his face, he was helpless in his heart, and secretly thought: "I am a devil, and I have no choice but to love the world." Thinking of this, he poured another glass of wine with a little helplessness and drank it in one gulp.

At this time, if you are here the day after tomorrow, you will be surprised to see the prisoner who has no skin, and the prisoner is none other than the one named Hanako who was bought in the west market of the capital the day before the day after tomorrow.

On that day, the day after tomorrow, he asked this Hanako to find forty or fifty more Hanako, and distributed ten lime bags to each of them, so that they could create chaos on the execution ground, and he could take the opportunity to rescue Leng Tianfeng. Unexpectedly, just after they escaped, Dongchang ordered all the people watching the execution site to be taken down, one by one, these more than 40 called Huazi were carrying silver coins, suspicious appearance, and were immediately discovered by Jinyiwei, and they couldn't help but detain all Huazi into the edict prison and torture them. And the person in charge is the king of torture of Jinyi Weibei Zhenfu - Yan Zhe.

Under the torture of Yan Zhe, I finally learned that these flowers were just bought by others, and they were consumed by the desire for profit, so they would take risks to help rob the Dharma field the day after tomorrow. It's simple, but it makes sense. However, Yan Zhe always felt that something was strange, so he still tortured these Hanako for the past two months, trying to get some more clues, but he never found anything.

Yan Zhe continued to drink the aged Huadiao, closed his eyes, and tasted it carefully, suddenly, a chill spread all over his body, and then a hand suddenly put on his left shoulder, Yan Zhe immediately turned his head to look, and suddenly froze, the person who came was none other than Chen Yueting, the overseer of the East Factory.

Yan Zhe didn't have time to think about it, and immediately knelt on the ground and said loudly: "See the factory for your humble position." The surrounding brocade guards also hurriedly knelt down.

Gonggong Chen waved his hand and said, "That's it, let's get up." He took a wine glass, poured himself a glass, and continued, "You all go down, Yan Zhe stays, and we have a drink." ”

The other Jinyi guards hurriedly left the torture chamber when they heard what Gonggong Chen said, leaving only Gonggong Chen, Yan Zhe and the prisoner. Yan Zhe took a deep breath and said, "Factory father, it's not just what he commands. ”

"Zhe'er, why be polite to our family, don't forget that we are masters and apprentices, and there is no one else here, just like back then. Gonggong Chen took a sip of the wine glass, "This wine is good, and it is delicious." ”

Seeing Gonggong Chen like this, Yan Zhe was no longer informal, sat on the bench, also picked up his wine glass, and whispered: "The apprentice never thought that the master would come here, and he was a little flattered. ”

It turned out that before Emperor Chengzu set up the East Factory, he always relied on Jinyiwei to secretly investigate the ministers of the court and protect his own safety, but he never thought that he was still almost assassinated by Jianwen's old ministers, so he decided to set up Dongchang to contain Jinyiwei, and Chen Gonggong had been secretly cultivating dead soldiers for Chengzu before becoming the governor of Dongchang, and this Yan Zhe was one of the leaders, so Chen Gonggong accepted him as an apprentice and placed him in Jinyiwei, secretly monitoring every move of Beizhen Fusi.
