The straight man who wears bright clothes is also afraid of messing with him

In February of the 18th year of Hongwu, Cui Miao and Shen Qing were ordered to investigate the fraud of the two divisions of the Beiping Mansion. They came to Daxing County under the jurisdiction of the Beiping Mansion and stayed overnight in a well-renovated house.

Li Wang was the steward of the house, and he left after a few words of advice to the two of them.Cui Miao and Shen Qing walked into the room and found that although the room was not big, it was well tidied up.When she came to the door, Cui Miao looked at it calmly, and closed the door casually.Sitting on the bench by the table, he picked up the teapot and poured a glass of water, dipped his fingers in it, and wrote: "There are people watching in the dark."

Cui Miao just looked around, and through the not-so-bright moonlight, he saw a half-figure reflected on the ground in front of the screen wall opposite the room.

Shen Qing nodded, sat next to Cui Miao, and wrote in the same way: "Li Wang has no good intentions, he must have a conspiracy."

Cui Miao nodded, and then wrote: "Wait and see."

"Brother, we have come all the way to Daxing to look for relatives, and we have used up half of our money, if we can't find them, what should we do?"

"Before my father passed away, I swore that there should be nothing wrong with what I said."

Cui Miao sighed a long time and said, "I hope so."

After Cui Miao finished speaking, the room fell silent, and the people hiding in the dark didn't realize that they had shown their whereabouts at all.

About half an hour later, Li Wang came over with a tray, and the people in the dark greeted him quickly, and said: "Brother Li, I heard from that Suan Confucian just now that most of the money has been spent, I'm afraid they don't have much oil and water on them." .”

"One tael of silver for one night, the scholar didn't even blink his eyelids. Even if he spent more than half of it, there must be a lot of money left. What's more, the few of us spent all the money on our bodies by eating, drinking and having fun. If there is no income, it's hard Want to drink northwest wind?"

"Brother Li is right. Sigh, you said that we are guarding this huge grain depot, but we still have to worry about food. If you tell this to others, who will believe it!"

Li Wang's complexion changed, and he said in a warning: "Li Erniu, I warn you, don't try to plot the grain depot. Even if you and I starve to death, don't move a single grain of rice here. Otherwise, it won't be you and me. Fate can be ended!"

Li Erniu was a little disapproving, but he didn't refute again. Li Wang walked out of the screen wall and went straight to the bedroom.

Without knocking on the door, she pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing that Cui Miao and Shen Qing were each holding a book in their hands, she couldn't help curling her lips secretly, and said without the slightest sincerity: "Sorry, I'm not used to them, I even forgot to knock on the door, you two don't mind."

Cui Miao quickly put down the book in her hand, and said in a good-tempered manner: "Brother Li is serious, we were the ones who bothered you, so why would you mind?"

Li Wang was very satisfied with Cui Miao's attitude. He put the tray in his hand on the table and said, "It's getting late, and there's no good food to eat. Just make do with it."

On the tray were a few pancakes, a plate of pickles, and a bowl of radish soup, which was so clear that you couldn't even see any oily smell.

Cui Miao slandered in her heart, but said duplicity: "It is very good to have a full stomach and a tile to cover your head."

Li Wang nodded in satisfaction, and said: "You guys eat, I still have things to do, and I will find someone to clean up the dishes tomorrow."

Li Wang went out, did not leave in a hurry, but hid in the corner and listened to the movement inside.

"How can such a meal be eaten?"

"Brother, although the food is not very delicious, but fortunately it can fill our stomachs, and we have to go on the road tomorrow, so I will make do with it. When we find my aunt, we can live without worry and concentrate on reading the books of sages."

The two of them took out an oiled paper bag from their luggage, poured out half of the pickles, stuffed the pancakes in, and poured the bowl of radish soup into the flower pot beside it.

Half an hour later, a small hole was pierced in the window paper. Li Wang looked in through the small hole and saw the two lying on the table unconscious. He couldn't help smiling, waved his hands behind him, and hid in the dark Li Erniu ran over, and the two pushed open the door and walked in swaggeringly.

Li Erniu looked at the two of them, and said with a playful smile: "Brother Li, don't tell me, these two are very handsome, even prettier than the girls in Yingke Building."

Li Wang curled his lips and said, "No matter how good-looking it is, it belongs to the couple. Stop talking nonsense and find something quickly."

Li Erniu laughed and said: "So handsome, maybe some lady is disguised as a man. If you don't check this, it would be a pity to miss it."

Li Wang seemed to be persuaded, and said: "Well, you check, if there is a woman, it will just make our brothers happy."

Li Erniu stretched his paws towards Cui Miao's face, touched it and said, "This skin is tender and smooth. If it's not for a woman, it's good for a change, hehe."

Li Erniu just wanted to reach into Cui Miao's skirt, but a hand grabbed his wrist, and then he felt a sharp pain, and he screamed, "Ah, my hand, my hand... "

Li Wang turned his head and saw that Shen Qing was staring at him coldly, his eyes were like a tiger staring at its prey, it was so cold that it was chilling.

"Why did you wake up?" After Li Wang finished speaking, Cui Miao also sat up, and then he suddenly said: "You didn't eat those meals."

Cui Miao took out a handkerchief in disgust, and wanted to wipe her face, but was stopped by Shen Qing. He took out his own handkerchief and handed it to him, saying: "It's too dirty, use mine."

Cui Miao was startled, then took the handkerchief, wiped it on her face, and said, "Why are you doing this?"

"Why? Naturally, you are asking for money. If you are sensible, take out all your finances. If the Lord is in a good mood today, I will let you live."

"No!" Li Erniu's facial features were distorted in pain, and he said angrily: "They hurt my hand, no one can leave today."

Cui Miao was so touched by the IQ of the two that he wanted to cry, but he hadn't figured out the situation until now. He said in a cold voice: "It seems that you have done this kind of business of seeking money and killing your life. It is your retribution if you meet us today." coming."

Li Wang raised his voice and shouted: "Come on!"

Cui Miao and the two didn't stop, the old god was sitting on the chair, which made Li Wang feel a little bit drummed, lest he really kicked the iron board this time.

After a while, four or five people came in the room 'hula la', all holding weapons in their hands.

"Brother Li, what's the matter? Have you encountered a hard problem?"

Li Wang pointed to Li Erniu, and said: "The idea is hard, and Erniu's hand was hurt. Let's all go together, and it ends up with them. Let us brothers Yingkelou be happy."

"Little boy, those who dare to hurt us, I think you don't want to live anymore, brothers."

Six people raised their weapons and slashed at the two, but after a while, all the people who rushed up lay down, wailing non-stop.Shen Qing directly pulled out everyone's belts and tied them tightly. It's not that they didn't want to resist, the problem is that they have learned from the past, the one who resisted just now is lying on the ground like a dead dog, not knowing whether he is alive or dead.

Cui Miao straightened her clothes, sat on a chair, glanced at everyone, looked at Shen Qing, and said, "Brother Shen, please take Li Wang to another room."

Without saying a word, Shen Qing carried Li Wang and walked out, as if he was carrying a small chicken, without any effort at all. Everyone couldn't help swallowing their saliva, thinking to himself: This time I really kicked the iron. Board up.

Cui Miao looked at the crowd and said, "You'd better tell the truth, so as not to suffer from flesh and blood."

Li Erniu scratched his neck and said, "Little white face, don't you even think about asking half a sentence from us. At worst, you will die, and you will be a good man again in 18 years."

Others followed suit and clamored: "Er Niu is right, we are all heroes, but it's just a matter of dying and closing our eyes. There is nothing to be afraid of. If you are capable, you can ask, whoever recruits will be your grandson!"

At this moment, Shen Qing walked in, looked at the clamoring crowd lightly, a sense of murder came towards him, everyone couldn't help but stop breathing, the room instantly became quiet, Li Erniu's body trembled, only feeling My wrist hurts even more.

Cui Miao curled her lips, obviously both of them climbed out of the battlefield, why did she not have such deterrent power, Cui Miao couldn't help but envy and hate in her heart.

"To tell you the truth, we two are sergeants of Jinyiwei. I will give you a chance to save you from the pain of flesh and blood. That is because our brothers are in a good mood today. You better seize this opportunity, otherwise there will be torture that will make you live." Better to die!"

Everyone was startled when they heard the words, and subconsciously swallowed their saliva. The name of Jin Yiwei is simply frightening. If they are true, it would be hard to die if they fall into their hands.

Li Erniu said sternly: "Stop bluffing us, what you say is right, show us your badge if you have the ability."

Cui Miao's complexion darkened, and he looked at everyone coldly, and said, "Since I've given you the opportunity to refuse, then we can only do it. Brother Shen, what criminal law do you think we should use, whether to peel day lilies or cut them into pieces? , or knock the bone to extract the marrow?"

Shen Qing drew out his dagger, and said flatly: "You can try it all."

Cui Miao smiled coldly, and said: "I think you don't know what these punishments are in this rural area. I'm in a good mood today, so I'm here to explain to you. This day lily peeling is very simple, it's from your scalp At the beginning, peel off the skin of your body bit by bit until the last toe, the more complete the skin is, the more precious it is, it can be made into a human skin lantern, and after death, the soul will also be tortured by the fire every day , cannot be freed."

In the middle of the night, with the flickering candles and Cui Miao's deliberately lowered voice, it was creepy to hear, and fear appeared involuntarily in his eyes.

Cui Miao paused for a while, and then said: "It's a little more troublesome to cut a thousand cuts into pieces. The first cut needs to cut a piece of meat from the large front muscle of the person and throw it into the sky. This is called "sacrificing meat to heaven". This is called a 'blindfold'. A person can cut about 3357 knives. Those who are really alive will die after the last cut. But unfortunately, my craftsmanship has not yet been cut. At that point, the last one who was cut into pieces by thousands of knives, I only cut 2887 knives, and he died. Just today I can practice my hands, well, that’s it, Brother Shen, you pick one, let’s try this thousand knives Cut to death."
