Chapter 401: Interrogation
Today, Yan Huandan is in charge of the Nine Gates, and the subordinates are basically sent out to search for the people of the Divine Lotus Sect, and the main target is Chen Hongru, the culprit. It's just that the other party is very hidden, and it is not easy to capture him.
People are in the door, but if there is news, they can set off immediately, but they are not idle, and the documents on the case are stacked, which is half a person high. One by one, they are all records of recent accidents in Panzhou.
As a court agency specifically responsible for demons and evils, all major state capitals have nine doors with yamen. In the peaceful years, few things happened, people were idle, and there were not many case files. However, once there is turmoil and evil spirits come out, it will be a different situation.
This is the case in the current Panzhou Mansion, and according to statistics, there are more than 300 accidents related to demons. In each case, there were deaths, and blood was everywhere.
After Chen Tang left last night, Yan Huandan began to read by candle at night, looking at these case records one by one, and the more he looked at them, the more frightened he became:
"There is an inn in the countryside west of the city, and the shopkeeper's wife was abused and died, and the morgue was in a partial house. That night, his corpse was uncovered, his face was pale gold, his forehead was wiped with silk, he broke into the guest room, sucked the yang energy of the guest, and the corpse changed, catching the living and eating it. Overnight, nineteen people died...... Lieutenant Colonel Hana Daogu heard the news, but the female corpse had disappeared into the mountains and forests and could not be found......
"Song Yushufu, a big household in Chengnan District, one night, Mrs. Tai and the second maid stayed in the room, suddenly heard a pop in the courtyard, the slave and maid peeked out of the window, and saw an old woman, short and hunchbacked, white hair and long bun more than two feet, only walking around the courtyard, spraying yellow water in the mouth. Mrs. Tai and the others screamed in horror, and the old woman felt it, and sprayed it with water, and all three died. Li Zhen, the captain of the Nine Gates, went and ordered someone to dig in the courtyard, digging three feet into the ground, and saw white hair, and then got a corpse, his face was swollen like life, and his abdomen was bulging like a cylinder, and he couldn't ...... it."
"Thirty miles north of the city, there is a great mountain, which is called: Jiashan. There are many birds and beasts in the mountains, which are chased by hunters. Recently, there is a rumor that there is a big snake in the mountain, a snake is more than six zhang long, a snake is three zhang, all are blue; some people have seen that there are red spots at the head of the big snake, such as a bowl, and the color is bright like paint. When people saw it, they were shocked by the dragon, and worshiped it with incense......"
Yan Huandan looked at it very carefully, and there was really a shocking feeling.
Due to the blockage of information, even if they all happened in Panzhou, many accidents were not disseminated, but were recorded by the people of the nine doors and stored in the yamen. It is not easy to release these incidents, because in that case, it will inevitably cause great chaos in people's minds and it will be difficult to clean up.
Before he came, Yan Huandan knew that the situation in Panzhou was not good, but looking at these case files, his feelings were more real, and he felt that the huge Panzhou Mansion was like a wooden barrel that was broken everywhere, and the end was full of holes and difficult to remedy.
The situation has deteriorated to this point, and the main root cause is Tan Baichuan's military disaster, but later Yan Zhifeng and others took advantage of the fire to rob, as well as Xiahou Qing's inaction, which also played a role in fueling the trouble. If after Tan Baichuan's death, someone can stand up, stand up, turn the tide, and clean up the scene, it will never collapse to this point.
Of course, behind this scene, Song Siming's black hand manipulation is indispensable, fanning the flames everywhere.
The matter has come to this point, and now it is useless to hold the accountable, and if it can't survive the Midyear Festival, everything will be gray and meaningless.
Putting down the case file in his hand, Yan Huandan got up and walked out, turned out of the hall, and came to the prison door.
"See Captain!"
The two doormen who were guarding here bowed and saluted.
Yan Huandan waved his hand and asked, "Xiahou Qing is locked inside, what is the movement?"
One of the guests replied, "Just sit cross-legged." ”
"Okay, I'll go in and see him. ”
The iron door of the prison opened, and Yan Huandan entered.
The prison set up by the nine doors is different from the ordinary yamen, it is extremely strong, guarded layer by layer, and the walls of the portal are carved with runes, or some hideous images. These are all enlightened, blessed with mana, and can suppress demons. The cells of the ordinary yamen are held by ordinary people, but the prisons in the nine doors are very powerful, and they are all treacherous, and they can never be contained by unconventional means.
According to Yan Huandan's knowledge, the Nine Doors are responsible for the affairs of demons and evils, not simply killing demons and eliminating demons, once they are killed, some of them will be captured alive, and all kinds of research will be carried out, and the degree of bloodiness is appalling. Even if they are dead, the corpses will be dissected, and finally they will be made into different types of ingredients and distributed to people to eat as a reward.
That's a good thing, a big supplement.
Demons eat people, if there is a chance, people can also eat demons, one report and one report, there is nothing to say.
At present, the nine doors of Panzhou prison are naturally not empty, but there are few living things, most of them are corpses, divided into types, divided into different cells, and some are even sealed, gloomy, if you don't look at the records, you don't know what is stored.
Xiahou Qing was locked in the outer room, looking normal, his hands and feet were wearing black iron chains, and he was sitting there with his hair scattered, motionless, as if he was in a state of flux.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and stared at Yan Huandan, who came: "What are you still doing?" Say, when will you transport me to the capital, this Panzhou, I am also tired of staying." ”
Yan Huandan said coldly: "I know that you have someone in the capital. ”
"Nonsense, if no one is there, who can be the captain of this capital?"
Xiahou Qing sneered.
The lieutenant of the nine gates, especially the one who presides over local affairs, is equivalent to the position of the governor.
Yan Huandan said indifferently: "I don't have anyone, I rely on a sword to kill it." ”
"Humph!"
Xiahou Qing snorted coldly: "So, you came to show off your power in front of me?"
Thinking that he was held by the other party as soon as he looked at him, he was really embarrassed. In fact, his martial arts are not so bad that they are, but he has injuries on his body, which makes his strength discounted, and when he fights, he is still afraid, he wanted to test the truth and reality, but Yan Huandan was not polite to him at all. But having said that, Yan Huandan's cultivation has really reached a point of perfection, even if Xiahou Qing in his heyday, at most he can support a few more rounds, and he is not an opponent at all.
If your skills are not as good as others, what if you are not convinced? The only way to get out is to get out of the capital and make plans in the future.
Xiahou Qing knew in his heart that Yan Huandan held the token and took himself, but he couldn't dispose of it casually in the local area, he had to be escorted to Beijing and handed over to the headquarters for interrogation.
Yan Huandan put his hands behind his back and was expressionless: "In the current environment, do you think someone has escorted you to Beijing? I came to see you, I just want to ask, are you involved with Yin Si?"
When it comes to the latter sentence, it is already very powerful.
Xiahou Qing's face changed, and he said categorically: "No." ”
Yan Huandan's gaze was compelling: "There is no best, then tell me how you and Yan Zhifeng colluded with each other, and what they know." ”
After a pause, he looked into his eyes: "If you hide it and don't report it, I can let you stay in Panzhou forever, you are a smart person, you should understand." ”
Xiahou Qing was inexplicably weak, and cold sweat seeped out of his back.
