Chapter 1029 Xiao Cheng escaped
Xiao Cheng was dumbfounded when he heard this. He raised his little head, looked at the jailer, and asked in disbelief...
"Are you serious? Young Master really doesn't admit that he gave me the elixir?"
"Admit it, of course I admit it." The jailer said unhappily...
"If they hadn't given you the elixir, your grandfather would have died long ago. You are a heartless little bastard. The young master saved your grandfather, but not only are you ungrateful, you even stole the elixir and sold it. Are you still a human being?"
Those elixirs are priceless, and ordinary people wouldn't even dare to think about getting one. Xiao Cheng was so bold that he stole so many and sold them. He deserves to die.
Xiao Cheng felt like he was about to die unjustly. He did cheat a few young masters of their elixirs, but he really didn't steal them. They gave them to him willingly. How could they treat him like this? So, he couldn't wait to explain...
"No, they really gave me the elixir. I didn't steal it. I really didn't steal it. It's unfair."
"I want to see the young master and the young lady. I want to see them. They can't wrongly accuse me."
The jailer spat fiercely at him and cursed, "Bah! You are such a bastard, are you worthy of meeting the young master and the young lady? Don't dream on. If you don't explain yourself well today, I will make sure you go to jail alive but never leave."
After the jailer finished speaking, he was too lazy to waste words with him and directly used the torture instruments, beating Xiao Cheng until his skin was torn and his flesh was torn. Finally, under the torture, Xiao Cheng revealed a shocking news...
"Sir, stop hitting me. Actually, I was instructed to do this by someone. That person asked me to steal the young master's elixir and then falsely accuse the elixir of being poisonous, ruining the reputation of Youzhou Palace. But later, the elixir accidentally saved my grandfather's life, so I was obsessed with it and wanted to make some money from the elixir to escape Youzhou and that mysterious person. That's why the auction happened later."
The jailer swung the whip in his hand and asked sternly, "Who is the other party?"
Xiao Cheng was tied to a wooden pillar. At this moment, his body was covered in blood from being whipped. He shook his head weakly and said that he didn't know the identity of that man, but what was certain was that that man had an irreconcilable feud with the King of Youzhou.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to frame the Youzhou Palace.
Is not this nonsensical?
Anyone who is not stupid knows that this person must have a grudge against the King of Youzhou.
Jailer: "Tell me, what benefit did he give you?"
"Just... just one thousand taels of silver." Xiao Cheng regretted it deeply at this time. If he had known that the elixir was so valuable, he would not have cared about the one thousand taels of silver. Otherwise, he would not have ended up like this.
"You betrayed the young master for only one thousand and two taels of silver. You are really a good person." The jailer became more and more angry as he spoke. He hated such ungrateful people the most in his life. Just like Foreman Zhang, the prince was very affectionate to him, but he became a traitor and led his people to defect to Moli Kingdom.
Thinking of this, the jailer beat Xiao Cheng severely again. Xiao Cheng was just like Foreman Zhang, ungrateful and deserved to be beaten.
At this moment, the warden walked in with Huo Dongwu and his sister. Upon seeing this, the jailer hurried forward and whispered a few words to the warden, reporting to him what Xiao Cheng had just said.
After hearing this, the warden told Huo Dongwu and his five siblings everything.
When Xiao Cheng saw the five brothers and sisters of Huo Dong, he seemed to have seen a savior, and he immediately opened his throat and roared...
"Master, Miss, please save me. You know I didn't steal the elixir, right?"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Huo Dong's five siblings expectantly, hoping that they would help testify so that the government would release him.
Huo Dong waved to the warden and the jailer, signaling them to go out first.
The warden and the jailer bowed and saluted, then retreated respectfully.
It was not until their figures disappeared around the corner of the prison corridor that Huo Dong turned around, walked up to Xiao Cheng, and said leisurely...
"Yes, we know you are innocent, but we don't want to testify for you because you not only deceived us, but also betrayed us. Why should we let a traitor like you go?"
When Xiao Cheng heard this, his face changed drastically, and he asked tremblingly: "You...you know everything?"
Huo Dong: "Yes, we all know it. Aren't you curious about how we know it?"
Xiao Cheng reacted and grinned disdainfully: "Isn't that what I just told the jailer? What's so strange about that?"
Huo Dong shook his head and said, "No, it's not that thing, it's something else."
"Xiao Cheng, how many immoral things have you done behind our backs?"
"I didn't expect you to be this kind of person. You usually act like a grandson in front of us, but you are this kind of person behind our backs. We really misjudged you."
Huo Nan, Huo Xi, Huo Bei, and Huo Zhong were all confused when they heard what their eldest brother said. They didn't know what else Xiao Cheng had done besides stealing the elixir and colluding with foreign enemies. Why was their eldest brother so angry?
Huo Nan couldn't help but ask, "Brother, what else did Xiao Cheng do?"
Huo Dong: "He was working for the Demon Realm and wanted to release the plague in Europe. Fortunately, his grandfather had a conscience and changed the plague. Otherwise, everyone in Youzhou would have been infected with the plague now."
When Xiao Cheng heard this, his face changed drastically. It turned out that before he attended the auction last night, he wanted to make a fortune before leaving Youzhou, so he released a large amount of plague virus into the water source. However, he never expected that his grandfather was so kind-hearted and actually replaced the plague secretly.
He couldn't help cursing...
"That old bastard, I provided him with food and clothing, yet he dared to betray me. I will beat him to death when I get out."
"You still want to go out? You have no chance." Huo Dong said fiercely...
"Just prepare to spend your whole life in jail."
Huo Nan, Huo Xi, Huo Bei, and Huo Zhong were furious when they learned that Xiao Cheng was so vicious that he dared to release the plague in Youzhou's water source. They said in unison...
"Brother, it's too easy for such a vicious person to be locked up in jail. Why don't we kill him and put an end to it all."
Huo Dong shook his head and said, "No, I promised his grandfather that I would not kill him. A man should not go back on his word."
When Xiao Cheng heard this, he was secretly happy. As long as there was no danger to his life, he would feel relieved.
However, being locked up in jail for life is not a big deal.
"Master, Miss, please let me go because I was so good to you before. I promise I will never do bad things again."
The Huo Dong brothers and sisters said that they cannot trust people who have betrayed them for money.
Besides, Xiao Cheng did such a bad thing, it’s not something they can forgive just because they say so. You have to ask the people of Youzhou.
Huo Dong rubbed his chin with his hands and said, "How about I put up a notice tomorrow and ask the people of Youzhou if they are willing to let you go? As long as the majority of people vote to let you go, I will let you go. How do you think?"
Xiao Cheng asked cautiously, "Do they know that I released the plague?"
Huo Dong nodded and said as a matter of course: "Of course I know, they are victims and have the right to know."
"......" Xiao Cheng's face changed drastically when he heard this. He knew with his knees that they would definitely not choose him.
midnight.
The prison was silent. Suddenly, a man dressed entirely in black floated in like a ghost and rescued Xiao Cheng easily.
An hour later.
A shrill scream was heard from Xiao Cheng's house, and then everything returned to calm. The people of Youzhou were awakened from their sleep, but they thought it was an illusion and did not take it seriously and continued to fall asleep.
It wasn't until the next morning that some people noticed that the door of Xiaocheng's house was closed and Grandpa Zhao, who usually got up early to sweep the floor, was nowhere to be seen. They all thought it was very strange and couldn't help but talk about it...
"It's strange. The sun is already shining brightly today, why hasn't Grandpa Zhao gotten up yet?"
"Yes, usually at this time he would be sweeping the yard, then the street. It's so strange today, he didn't even open the door."
"That's not right. Did something happen to Xiao Cheng? Is he sick because of anger?"
"It's possible. Xiao Cheng is a traitor. The prince treated him so well, but he actually defected to the enemy and wanted to kill us with the plague. Fortunately, Grandpa Zhao understood the greater good, otherwise, we would have been infected with the plague and our family would have been destroyed."
"Yes, Grandpa Zhao is a good man. Let's go and see if he is sick. Xiao Cheng is not here, so we will take care of him."
The neighbors were very enthusiastic. They went home to get a ladder and climbed into Grandpa Zhao's house. They saw that Grandpa Zhao's room was in a mess, as if someone had turned it over. There was a large pool of blood on the ground. Grandpa Zhao's body was upside down with his head down and his feet up, half lying on the bed and half lying on the ground. There was a deep wound on his neck. Obviously, he had been killed by someone cutting his throat.
The neighbor who came in to check on the situation was so frightened that he peed his pants on the spot and shouted in horror...
"Oh no! Something happened to Grandpa Zhao. He...he was killed."
This incident spread like wildfire throughout Youzhou, and the people were furious and started to curse...
"Who is so cruel that he wouldn't even let an old man go?"
"That's right. Grandpa Zhao is a kind-hearted man. He is already over 80 years old. How many years can he live? I didn't expect that he would be killed by such a wicked person. God is really blind."
Just at this moment, news came from the prison that Xiao Cheng escaped from the prison in the middle of the night last night. Then everyone realized the truth.
No wonder Grandpa Zhao’s room was so messy before he died. It turned out that Xiao Cheng did it. He must have escaped from prison and was discovered by Grandpa Zhao, so he asked him to go back and turn himself in. He was unwilling, so he killed Grandpa Zhao in a rage.
The people's judgment became more and more bizarre.
Finally it became a fact.
The people of Youzhou were naturally filled with righteous indignation and kept cursing Xiao Cheng...
"Oh my god, it turns out that the murderer of Grandpa Zhao was that little beast Xiao Cheng. I said before that he was an ungrateful wolf. Grandpa Zhao shouldn't have adopted him. Now, he has raised an ungrateful wolf and brought disaster to himself."
