The physical and mental damage of this interrogation to Li Yingyuan was very great, and I don't know how long I stayed in this dark little dark room, but I felt that I couldn't recover for a long time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, what should be faced will eventually be faced. I don't know how long it took, but the soldiers guarding the black room opened the door and came in and asked Li Yingyuan to go to a place with him.

When I went out, I noticed that it was night, and when I got into a clean courtyard and entered a tidy room, I found that there were a few candles lit inside, and the Major Andrew was sitting behind a desk waiting for him.

On that table was quite a sumptuous amount of food, from chicken, duck and fish to pork legs and soup and rice, all of which were full of color and flavor.

"Sit down. Major Andrew seemed to be in a good mood, and when he saw Li Yingyuan coming, he motioned for him to sit down.

When Li Yingyuan sat down in front of the table, an orderly stepped forward and placed empty plates, knives and other utensils on the table in front of him, but they were all in English style.

"What is this?" Li Yingyuan couldn't help but be stunned.

"It's your first decent meal in three days. Major Andrew motioned to Li Yingyuan to enjoy the food on the table at will: "Don't worry, there is no poison in these things." ”

Li Yingyuan thought about it, there was nothing to be afraid of at this point, no matter how bad things were, they couldn't get worse, so he let go of his mind and ate what was on the table.

It was at this time that Li Yingyuan felt how hungry he was, and at first he could still think about etiquette and chew slowly, but later he ate faster and faster, and he ate whatever he caught. Those meats, vegetables, and so on, they swallowed them without chewing much.

"Eat slowly, no one will rob you. Major Andrew sat across from him, leisurely holding up a glass of red wine to taste, as if he had everything under control.

I don't know how long it took for Li Yingyuan to reluctantly slow down, but the things in his hand still kept sending them to his mouth.

"What is this?" After a while, Li Yingyuan remembered that he couldn't just eat it in a daze, and while grabbing the food, he asked, "You finally believe that I am innocent?"

"It has nothing to do with the assassination, it's just a little bit of my heart. Major Andrew replied: "Whether it is Ming or England, I think there is a common custom, that is, to give a good meal to the condemned prisoner who is about to be executed." ”

Li Yingyuan, who was still swallowing food with his head down, was choked, coughed violently before spitting the food out of his mouth, and looked at Major Andrew opposite in shock.

The two men looked at each other for a full three seconds before Major Andrew clapped his hands and laughed, as if he had seen the funniest thing in the world.

"I'll just say I can scare you, look at your stunned look. ”

"You're going to execute me?" asked Li Yingyuan, feeling a blank in his mind.

"Don't worry, boy, even if I want to execute you, I won't choose today. Major Andrew laughed and said, "Dr. Shepud's operation was a success, and he vouched for you that you would have nothing to do with the Assassins, and he saved his life." So, your suspicion is cleared. ”

"Dr. Shepud, is it okay? Thank God, he's all right. Li Yingyuan muttered to himself, but he didn't know what to feel in his heart. Knowing that the doctor is fine, he should be happy for the other party, but in that case, what is the torture he has been subjected to in the past few days, is he just a beating for nothing, and tortured with that terrible psychedelic drug.

"The suspicion is cleared, but that doesn't mean I believe in your loyalty. "A lot of people say faith is more precious than gold. If you want to regain my trust, you'll have to complete a test in a moment. ”

After Li Yingyuan finished eating, Andrew motioned for him to withdraw. When Li Yingyuan walked out of the door of the room and felt that he was in a trance, an English soldier came to look for him.

"Come on, don't make a sound, come with us. The soldier told him.

In a daze, he followed the people to the county courtyard, and Li Yingyuan felt a breath of slaughter. I saw that seven or eight hundred people had gathered in the originally empty and spacious courtyard, fully armed, and looked murderous.

At the very front near the door, six or seven hundred English soldiers stood solemnly, all armed with spears and bayonets.

Behind them were dozens of returnees, all armed with muskets. The returnees were the only faction among the retainers who were allowed to carry muskets, a profound indication of the trust that the English placed in them.

However, Zheng Sanguan and Liu Xiang privately told Li Yingyuan that the firearms they used were worse than the muskets of authentic English soldiers, and what they said involved issues such as range, rate of fire, and loading methods, anyway, Li Yingyuan didn't understand very well.

Behind them, there were some people from the medical department, including the two remaining English doctors and apprentices, and dozens of strong men with stretchers, which were considered to be mercenary factions.

After that, the people were a little miscellaneous, and the head-catchers in the original yamen were mixed with the idle dependents, which was a mixture of the yamen system and the singles department.

At the end of the line, more than a hundred English soldiers stood with their eyes on them, holding down their positions.

Li Yingyuan was led to the array of the medical department and pushed in. Only then did he notice that the people in the medical department were not wearing their usual white coats, but were wearing ordinary clothes.

"What the hell is going on?" Seeing Chen Changsheng beside him, Li Yingyuan asked in a low voice.

Chen Changsheng just wanted to say a few words, but he was booed by an English doctor in front of him, and swallowed the words back. He handed Li Yingyuan an apologetic look, handed over the medical box marked with a red cross, thought for a while, and then untied a bright short knife from his body and handed it to Li Yingyuan.

Only then did Li Yingyuan find that Chen Changsheng was holding a two-meter-long spear (not a firearm gun) in his hand, and he was also carrying a knife around his waist, which looked a little funny when combined with his not very tall stature.

The English officer at the front made a gesture, the door slowly opened, and everyone followed him out of the yamen in silence. At this time, it was late at night before dawn, and it was dark and gloomy, but fortunately, everyone was familiar with the county, and they marched to the western district together in the dim light.

The West End is considered a wealthy area, where many wealthy families and families, including many Fuso people, live here, and it seems calm and serene at night. When he stopped, Li Yingyuan realized that he was still familiar with the place where the group of people arrived, that is, the Musashi family mansion where Musashi Kojiro was located, the richest and most influential giant merchant family in the entire Dinghai.

"Who is it?" in the darkness, someone from the Musashi Mansion suddenly called out.

However, no one answered him. Two English soldiers raised their guns and took aim, and two crackling sounds sounded, and the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was heard from there.

"Murder, murder!" the Musashi Mansion family members shouted in confusion.

“Fire!” The English officers gave the order to attack, and bullets and shells rained down like hail on Musashifu.
