Hell is secluded
"There are three courtyards here, and there are only so many side rooms, could it be that adults have already been executed?"
Su Luhuan was slightly lost and worried at the moment, raised his eyes to look at Yan Mubai, only to see him frowning and thinking for a moment, and said softly in a low voice: "No, didn't the shopkeeper say before that the whole boat of sea salt has not explained her whereabouts until now." Although the Haicao Gang is a gang in the rivers and lakes, there are many people who serve the court, and they are widely implicated, they have killed the father and mother of the two daughters, even if it is a warning, it is enough, their purpose is to find the boat of sea salt, gold and silver money is the most important, as long as the girl has not spit out, she will not be killed. Besides, if you look here, although the courtyard is deep, two streets outside the door is the official yamen, and the execution of four lives in a row is too horrifying, and the government must also take care of the people's feelings and anger. ”
Su Lu imagined that this was indeed the case, she glanced at the courtyard for a week, frowned and said: "But these two courtyards have been searched, and the outermost layer is full of drunken people, there will definitely be no dark prison, if it is too time-consuming to search for the secret compartment from room to room, you have to think of a way." ”
Yan Mubai was reminded, so he patted his head and said, "Yes, that little guy is not drunk yet, you are waiting for me here, and I will bring him over." ”
But after a while, the little guy was dumb and almost half-dragged over.
Yan Mubai grabbed his neck and shoulders and pushed his shirt against the wall, the unsheathed fire broke against his neck, stretched his face and said viciously: "Listen, if you want to live, tell us where the hell is here?" I will click on your acupoint now, if you dare to shout, I will solve you immediately, do you hear clearly?" The little guy obviously hadn't recovered from the shock just now, because he was afraid that the muscles on his face were almost twisted together, his eyes were gray and gray, and he was frightened, and he nodded more than a dozen times with his head before he could forget it.
Yan Mubai stretched out his hand a little, and the scabbard in his hand was raised a point.
"I don't know what a dark prison is, I've only been here for a short time, and I'm just a little guy, not a guard. ”
"You still know that all the guards live here, and you dare to say that you don't know anything, let me ask you again, are the two girls captured by the Haicao Gang still alive?"
The little guy's eyes flashed brightly, and he said tremblingly: "I really don't know anything, I am old and young, please spare the life of the villain." ”
Su Luhuan saw that he was so frightened that he was not honest, the jade hand raised his jaw, and with a force, his mouth opened and closed, and he threw a pill into it in an instant.
"This medicine is a poison that pierces the intestines and rots the stomach, called the Fengluo Pill, if you can't get the antidote within twelve hours, you will die of foaming at the mouth. If you want to get the antidote, tell us everything you know, otherwise the drug will attack, and the taste will not be something that you can bear. "Anyway, regardless of the little guy's sharp cough, I raised my eyes to Yan Mubai's surprised eyes, and looked at it, I learned quite quickly.
Shocked, Yan Mubai's eyes straightened, and his face almost turned light gray, he couldn't even believe his ears, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day. Such a gentle and kind phantom was actually poisoned and intimidated by what he brought at the moment.
Before he could come to his senses, the little guy had already sunk forward, and his knee hit the ground with a sudden snort. He raised his hands above his head and begged for mercy as if he had lost half of his soul: "I say, two adults, I will do it all." After speaking, his two hands were still hanging to the ground, and his body crawled forward a few steps, reaching Yan Mubai's feet, tugging at his clothes, with a minion grimace.
"Those two girls took a boatload of sea salt, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. Now I haven't explained where Haiyan exists, so our lord has been locked up for them, and he didn't dare to let them die after using a big punishment, plus the recent sentence of the adult wants to marry a ninth aunt, who knows that there is no suitable person to choose and choose, only then did I think of the two girls locked up in prison, saying that they are in good condition, and they plan to clean up and send them over tomorrow night. ”
The little guy was obviously really frightened, and his hands holding the corners of his clothes began to tremble violently, and he said with a trembling cry: "Really, what I said is true, where is it in that dark prison, I only came here not long ago, I really don't know." ”
Su Luhuan and Yan Mubai glanced at each other, Yan Mubai bent down to help him up and said, "Then there is a secret place that needs to be sent over every day by someone to eat." ”
The little guy was told, his face softened, and he quickly turned his face as if he was smiling, and hurriedly replied: "Yes, yes, before you, there was an old woman surnamed Cui who always brought food and water to a hut in the backyard, and these days I caught the cold, I'm afraid it won't be, so I chose you to stay in the village, I noticed at first, the old woman didn't take any good food, I thought about her age, maybe the lord took pity on her, and I didn't think about it deeply." ”
This little guy doesn't have a bad mind. Yan Mubai grabbed one of his arms with one hand, reached into the shirt in front of his waist with the other hand, took out a piece of silver and put it in his hand, patted him on the shoulder and said: "The forces of the Haicao Gang are intertwined, since you are old and young, it is best to leave here and find another way." "That
The little guy clenched his hands into fists, pursed his lips and bowed with a crying voice, but he didn't leave, and looked at Su Luhuan tremblingly.
Su Luhuan stretched out his hand to open a brown bottle, twisted out a gray pill and handed it over, the little guy immediately took it with both hands, held it and quickly put it in his mouth and swallowed it.
Su Luhuan put the brown bottle back on his waist, and said coldly: "You'd better leave now, those people in the front hall were fed sweat medicine by us, and when they wake up, they will definitely suspect that you are in the same group as us, but you brought us in." Do you understand?"
When the little guy heard this, his face was instantly frightened and bloodless, and he clicked a few times like a chicken's head, and crawled towards the door of the front yard.
"This is it. Su Luhuan stretched out his hand to open the curtain of the hut.
"Phantom, I'll come. Yan Mubai stretched out his hand to stop her, lifted the curtain with the hilt of his sword, pushed open the door, protected Su Luhuan behind him, walked step by step, and slowly groped inward.
From the outside, this house looks dilapidated like a stable, and when you look inside, you can't see the bottom.
A dim road of oil lamps, with four tiers of shelf with dried blood stains standing on one side, on which meat tongs, chain balls, spiked collars, thick sticks, and python-like ropes are terrifying and shocking.
Su Luhuan stepped forward to take a closer look, and found that it was stained with blood, mixed with dry and damp blood, which made the torture instrument even more vicious and terrifying.
A few candles were reflected on the dilapidated mud walls, and a breath of death mixed with the smell of blood filled the entire dark room, no, it was not a dark room, the people in the Haicao Gang called it the dark hell, the dim oil lamps flickered with a faint light, flickering, the turbid air almost pierced people's noses, and the smell mixed with dampness and blood made people's stomachs stir.
Su Luhuan gucked lightly and covered his nose with the back of his hand.
"Who?"
Suddenly, a hoarse female voice came out softly, Yan Mubai and Su Luhuan were both startled, and followed the sound to see two barely recognizable girls huddled in a half-human-high cage made of dark iron. The eyes were bloodshot, unkempt hair, the eye sockets were deeply sunken, the lips and cheeks were pale, and the spirit was in a trance, like a bird with a broken bow, seeing the two approaching, holding each other, arching their bodies and slowly rubbing back, the cage was not big, and soon saw the head, the two could not avoid it, and the two eyes stared at the cage like ashes.
Yan Mubai and Su Luhuan's brains seemed to have lost consciousness, and the stake-like pestle was motionless there, looking at the two women in front of them with two eyes demented, as if they had been struck by lightning, and they were terrified. The two of them could not imagine that there would be such a means in the world that could torture people like this, and they were a little frozen for a while.
The moonlight is like a flower, and the delicate streamer is accompanied by the autumn frost falling in the air, which is even more bleak. The four of them escaped from the courtyard and headed out of the city. Yan Mubai and Su Luhuan were holding a girl alone, and they didn't walk fast.
"My sister has prepared horses outside the city, so that as long as we escape from the city, we can ride on horseback, much faster. Su Luhuan's arms tightly wrapped around the woman in front of her, and at this moment the tips of her fingers were densely wounded, although the blood was coagulated, but when she moved, it was like a sharp pain that was tearing her heart. Su Lu's phantom body thought of her body, and her movements were very light, and she comforted softly.
"Sister, my name is Xuanyue, thank you, sister. "Although his body is suffering great pain at the moment, he is gentle and generous.
Su Luhuan couldn't help but have a good impression of her, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he smiled: "No thanks, Sister Xuanyue, my name is Su Luhuan." ”
"Sister, sister. ”
"Is it a phantom?" Su Zili heard the voice and anxiously came to answer. Seeing that Su Luhuan was safe and sound, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart was a little more stable.
"Sister, they are all seriously injured, but fortunately, their lives are fine, let's go. Su Zili nodded, turned around and untied the ropes one by one, led the horses over, and when she reached out and handed the reins to Xuan Yue, she saw the wound on her face, and shook her suddenly.
Xuan Yue said, "Thank you, sister!" The voice was soft but full of trembling, thinking that the wound must be very painful, and as she said that, she reached out to pick it up, Su Zili stared at her a little distractedly, and she didn't move.
Su Luhuan felt strange in his heart, but time was pressing, so he urged at the moment: "Sister, give her the reins." Only then did she come to her senses and let go.
The three of them jumped on the horse, but the two girls were standing on the ground, very restrained.
"What's wrong? Get on the horse, hurry up. Yan Mubai grabbed the reins of the horse with both hands, turned his head and said to the two.
"Why did you save us? Qiu Ying'an was like a hedgehog with long thorns all over her body, and her eyes were full of vigilance.
Yan Mubai and Su Luhuan glanced at each other, and said patiently: "Do nothing else, the road is uneven, give a helping hand." Your parents have passed away, and you have offended the Haicao Gang, I am afraid that there is nowhere else to go in this Shandong, why don't you go back to the Sword Villa in Taiyuan County with us first, and after you are healed, the world is so big, we will not ask where you want to go, how about it?"
Hearing the name of the Sword Holding Villa, a faint streamer flashed in Qiu Ying'an's eyes, but it darkened for a moment, nodded and said no more.
Xuan Yue has never been treated like this since she was a child, she didn't want to reciprocate, but she saved the lives of the two of them.
