Chapter 575: Struggling
"Liu Xunyi, the mansion master is resting, you go back!"
At noon, when Liu Xunyi, who was preoccupied, came to the back hall to ask to see Luo Tianjin, he was rejected by Deng Changchuan, who was guarding the door.
Liu Xunyi was unwilling, and pleaded again and again: "Fifth master, I really have 100,000 urgent things to ask to see the lord of the mansion, and I bother you to pass it on for me." ”
"You shouldn't be here. Deng Changchuan's reaction was still flat, and he was unmoved by Liu Xunyi's anxious eyebrows.
"But......" Liu Xunyi hesitated, "It's urgent, I really don't dare to make my own decisions." ”
"Where is your guts?"
Suddenly, Xie Xuan's voice sounded from behind Liu Xunyi, which lifted his spirits and hurriedly turned around to salute.
Xie Xuan ignored Liu Xunyi's greetings and said lightly: "Since you entered the mansion, have you been making your own opinions?"
"I ......"
"The mansion master won't see you, so instead of wasting time here, it's better to go back as soon as possible and find a way to solve the trouble. ”
In the face of Xie Xuan and Deng Changchuan's iron-faced selflessness, even if Liu Xunyi had a thousand or ten thousand reluctances in his heart, he had to follow their wishes and leave in a huff at this moment.
"Wait!"
Luo Ningyu hurriedly broke into the backyard, and when she saw Liu Xunyi's disheartened appearance, she couldn't help but show worry, so she stared at Xie Xuan and Deng Changchuan: "Second Uncle Xie and Fifth Uncle Deng, do you know what kind of chaos Luoyang City has become now?"
"Yu'er, this is the mansion master's test of Liu Xunyi, you don't have to do a lot of things!" Xie Xuan said unhappily.
"But Xunyi has done his best, you ......" Luo Ningyu was resentful, and simply stopped entanglement with them, but stood on tiptoe and shouted, "Dad, Xunyi wants to see you, you come out to meet him......"
"Yu'er, don't mess around!"
"You let me in......"
Facing the dispute between Luo Ningyu and Xie Xuan and Deng Changchuan, Liu Xunyi couldn't help but be moved. At the same time, there was a hint of shame in his eyes.
After all, everything starts because of one's own incompetence.
"Ning Yu, I understand your kindness!" Liu Xunyi grabbed Luo Ning Yu's arm and said in a low voice, "The mansion master must have his intentions when he does this." If you force your way in, even if I see the lord of the house, I am afraid that there will be no good fruit to eat. ”
"But ......"
"Don't worry, I have my own way to deal with it. ”
After that, Liu Xunyi bowed to Xie Xuan and Deng Changchuan to apologize, and then dragged the indignant Luo Ningyu out of the backyard together.
In the back hall, Luo Tianjin, Ye Luqin, and Xun Qin sat around the table, three cups of tea curled and smoking, and the atmosphere was very leisurely.
"Lord Luofu, you are so delegated power, aren't you afraid that Liu Xunyi will poke out the basket?" Through the window, Xun Qin's eyes looked inexplicably at Liu Xunyi and Luo Ningyu who were gradually moving away, and said curiously, "So far, Liu Xunyi has not been able to take advantage of Qin Ming, but has been played by Qin Ming. ”
Luo Tianjin smiled lightly: "Liu Xunyi's personality is too upright, and even a little pedantic. If you don't change your temperament, you will suffer a big loss in the future. I want him to understand that if you want to achieve great things, you must do whatever it takes. Of course, if he is not allowed to go through some pain, he will never break through his shackles. ”
"Lord Luofu said this. Yeluqin nodded and said, "Those who become great weapons are all able to bend and stretch, and they are both good and evil. It seems that the lord of Luofu has high hopes for Liu Xunyi. ”
"Actually, there's another reason why I avoided it. Luo Tianjin's words changed sharply, and he said with a smile, "The only person who can solve Qin Ming's problem is Qin Ku." Although I am the leader of the martial arts alliance, I can't touch half a point. ”
Xun Qin said clearly: "The leader of the martial arts alliance is always the leader of the martial arts alliance, and the identity determines the means. There are some things that it is indeed inconvenient for the lord of Luo Mansion to come forward. ”
"Qin Ku is the only way to solve Qin Ming, but this son is too tactful, he always takes care of himself in advance, he is always submissive, and even a little timid and afraid. Therefore, if I want to persuade him to take the initiative, I asked myself if I have this ability. ”
"Even the Luo Mansion Master is not sure, who can still convince Qin Ku?"
"The person who was rejected by me just now is precisely Qin Ku's weakness. Luo Tianjin said secretively, "Although Qin Ku is greedy for money, he is even more desperate for his life. Such a cunning person has a deep affection for Liu Xunyi, which is really interesting. ”
"The Lord of Luo Fu means ......"
"Liu Xunyi acted so conservatively, it was impossible for Qin Ku to be touched by him. Only ......" As for this, Luo Tianjin's eyes suddenly flashed a terrifying light, and he said word by word, "Only when you are in a desperate situation can you survive in a desperate situation." ”
......
After Liu Xunyi returned to the East Courtyard, he wiped away the sense of loss on his face, and at the same time put on a calm and calm appearance to prevent people from being unstable.
"What did the mansion master say?" As soon as they saw Liu Xunyi, Luo Qi and Su Tang quickly stepped forward and asked like a cannon, "Does he agree with us asking for help from the General's Mansion?"
"Hmm. Liu Xunyi replied lightly, and did not answer directly, but said vaguely, "What does the mansion master mean...... Let's be bold. ”
"Okay!" Su Tang said with a happy face, "I'll go to the General's Mansion immediately and ask him to send a sergeant." ”
"Bring some gifts, don't go empty-handed. ”
"Understood!" After saying that, Su Tang hurriedly said goodbye and went straight to the general's mansion.
"Let's go and see how Xu Heng and their interrogation are going?"
In the dungeon, the four thieves were hung on the shelves one by one, and after a morning of severe torture, their bodies were already scarred and bloodstained.
The rich smell of blood mixed with the smell of damp rot mold makes people stomach churn and nauseate again and again.
At this moment, Xu Heng, who was sweating profusely, was shirtless, wielding a leather whip stained with salt water in his hand, and whipped the four thieves in turn.
Every whip is a howl of powerlessness.
It was as if the four thieves had already been exhausted and languished from torture.
"Boom!"
Ling Qing picked up the red soldering iron from the stove, slowly walked up to a thief, and threatened, "Say, who sent you?"
However, in the face of Ling Qing's questioning, the man shook his head and laughed wildly.
"Whew!"
"Ah......h
The reddish soldering iron was mercilessly pressed against the man's chest, and the flesh folded and shrank rapidly, and the blood droplets seeped out and evaporated instantly. Accompanied by a terrifying sound of "Zizi", it is timid, creepy.
"I seem to smell the smell of barbecue, but unfortunately it's half-cooked and almost has some condiments. ”
With Qin Ku's playful laughter, he and Liu Xunyi pushed the door and walked into the dungeon.
"I've seen the black fan, the deputy fan!"
As soon as they saw Liu and Qin, Xu Heng and Ling Qing hurriedly put down the torture tools in their hands and hurriedly stepped forward.
"Recruited?"
"Not yet. Ling Qing said guiltily, "How many of them ...... Something seems strange. ”
"Strange?" Liu Xunyi looked confused, and asked, "What's strange?"
"After they were taken into the dungeon, they talked back at first, but then they ......," Xu Heng stumbled and flickered, "and then they kept smirking and silent, allowing us to torture us, and there was no other reaction." ”
"How can such a thing happen?"
Qin Ku was stunned for a moment, raised his eyes to look around at the four people with their hair and their faces covered with blood, hesitated for a moment, walked towards one person, and asked, "What's your name?"
However, in the face of Qin Ku's inquiry, the man turned a deaf ear and still hung his head and remained silent.
Seeing this, Qin Ku couldn't help frowning, his right hand reached out to the blazing stove on the side, scooped up a piece of red charcoal from the furnace with his bare hands, and then pinched the man's chin with his left hand, forcing him to open his mouth, and at the same time stuffed the hot charcoal into the man's mouth without hesitation, and then covered his mouth and nose with his right hand, making it difficult for him to spit out the charcoal.
"Woo woo woo ......"
"Zizizi!"
Chilling voices followed, and red-hot charcoal burned the man's tongue raw.
Looking at the man again, he shook his head desperately, struggling his body, his throat let out bursts of extremely painful hiss, tears uncontrollably burst out of his eyes, mixed with the blood on his face, and Qin Ku was covered with blood.
When Qin Ku let go of his right hand, the broken charcoal mixed with broken teeth and rotten flesh gushed out in a rush under the wash of black blood.
But even so, the man's eyes were still foggy, as if he was crying and laughing.
At the same time, Liu Xunyi turned his gaze to the other three, who turned a blind eye to the tragic situation of their companions, sometimes wailing, sometimes giggling, sometimes crying, sometimes shouting like walking corpses.
Seeing this, Liu Xunyi and Qin Ku glanced at each other, and there was a touch of bitterness on their faces.
"Black fans, they are ......"
"Crazy. Liu Xunyi sighed, "Presumably, before Qin San sent them here, he had already calculated the time and fed them poison. They gradually lose their minds and become insane. ”
"Fuck!" Xu Heng scolded angrily, "I'll go find Qin San and ask for an understanding......
"No need. Qin bitterly teased, "When the people sent it, it was good, the situation at that time was obvious to all, these four people had bright eyes and bright hearts, they could speak and sing, and now they suddenly became crazy, do you think the Qin family will admit it? I'm afraid that if you can't ask the guilt, they will beat you up, saying that we have set up a bureau to frame good people." If this matter is publicized by them, it will not only be a shame for people to appear, but even the reputation of the lord of the mansion will plummet. ”
"No wonder Qin Ming dared to send people back in a grand manner, it turned out that he had already made full preparations. Liu Xunyi gritted his teeth and said, "It was our carelessness for a while, and he calculated again." ”
"And it's a dumb person who eats coptis, and he can't tell if he suffers. Qin Ku looked helpless.
"It's not for nothing, at least...... We know that Qin Ming has something to do with Duan Tianhong's ambush. Ling Qing said with relief.
"Find the victim to identify them. Liu Xunyi said absentmindedly, "Look at the four of them, have they participated in the trouble on the eve before?"
"I looked, but ...... No one remembers. Xu Heng replied, "The black lights are blind, the dragons and snakes are mixed, and people can't escape for their lives, so how can they have the time to record the appearance of the thief? ”
"In other words, don't we even know that they are in the same group as the madmen who made trouble the night before?" Qin Ku said in amazement, "After working for so long, it is a bamboo basket to draw water. ”
"There is no need for a second trial. At sunset, they were taken outside the house to behead the public to appease the people. ”
At this moment, Liu Xunyi's mood was extremely gloomy.
In his own turf, he was teased again and again. Not only did Qin Ming turn around himself, but Luoyang City was even more embattled, and innocent people suffered from time to time. On the other hand, he is helpless everywhere.
There is Luo Tianjin's seven-day period, and there are the complaints of the people of Luoyang, and time passes bit by bit, but he has been going around and around, standing still.
Such a shame has made Liu Xunyi unbearable, almost ...... On the verge of collapse.
