The fifth master has a pair of soft and white hands, and the nails on the slender fingers are round and full with a crystal luster.
The strong man on death row screamed, but Master Wu still had an indifferent smile on his face.
At this moment, he seemed not to be an executioner, but a pious craftsman.
Take out a soft brush made of horsehair from a delicate small box, then soak it in warm soapy water and gently shake it.
"What are you going to do? Kill me if you dare!"
The majestic body of the death row prisoner twisted back and forth and let out a hoarse roar.
"Hey! Hey!" Fifth Master pressed his slender fingers on the strong man's lips, "Stop shouting! Save your energy and shout for a while, otherwise you won't be able to shout when it hurts, and it will hurt even more!"
As he spoke, his fingers retracted like lightning.
It turned out that the strong man suddenly tilted his head and opened his mouth, trying to take a bite, but he didn't expect the fifth master to move faster, so he missed the bite.
"You rough people are so vulgar!" Mr. Wu smiled, wiped the blood on his fingers, and then squatted down again, sighing, "What a good guy! What a pity! In this world, many people want to have such a
He's a nice guy, but he looks like a fingernail."
"Some people live such an upright and bright life, but they just don't cherish it." As he said this, he picked up a soft brush and dipped it in water. "A silver gun can make people heartbroken, and two iron gallbladders can make people dazzled. Tsk, tsk, tsk tsk.
Tsk tsk, there’s another good guy missing in the world!”
As he spoke, the brush in his hand began to brush slowly.
"Ah! Ah!" The strong man on death row shouted as if he was electrocuted.
"This place is so dirty! It needs to be brushed and shaved. Otherwise, if you really use a knife, these dirty things will kill you!"
Mr. Wu carefully painted it inside and out several times, and then took out a silver razor from the box. He unfolded it lightly, ran his fingers across the shining blade, and then the action began.
"Crack, click, click..."
The sound of Ruoyouruowu's hair being cut was heard, making the listener's heart feel as if there were thousands of insects crawling around.
"Don't be afraid, Master Wu's knives are always very measured!" Master Wu smiled softly and pointed at a certain place with the razor. "If you see, go in from the side, then pull out the tweezers and cut off the whole baby.
Coming down!"
"Ah! Ah! Damn you, you have the guts to kill me! Ah, even if I am a ghost, I will not let you go!" the death row prisoner cried out in despair, with tears falling vaguely from his eyes.
At this time, Master Wu suddenly bit the razor in his mouth, then tied up Du Lu with a red rope, and flicked it with his fingers.
"Don't worry, I'll do the surgery when it turns purple. It won't hurt at all!"
After speaking, Fifth Master picked up the purple clay pot and took a nice sip.
After drinking a pot of tea, the color of the doulu changed obviously.
The Fifth Master nodded again with satisfaction, then rolled up his sleeves, slowly squatted down, and pointed the razor in his hand...
"I said! I said! I said everything!" the man on death row suddenly shouted.
As long as you are a man, there is no one who is not afraid of this.
"I said it all, sir, I said it all!"
Several jailers came in from outside, "Really?"
The man on death row was trembling all over, "I'm telling you, I'm telling you everything. I just want the officials to give me a good time after I finish speaking!"
"You bitch, if you had said no, it would have been over!" one jailer cursed, and the other jailer said to the fifth master, "Fifth master, I'm sorry for you! I'm afraid the work you are doing will have to stop!"
"Don't bother me!" Fifth Master said dissatisfiedly, "It's hard to find such a good guy. It's not easy to meet him. Why don't you let me cut him off?"
"You go outside and have a rest!" The jailer politely invited Master Wu out and said with a smile, "I'll check it out for you later!"
~~
Outside the execution room, Zhu Yunxi, who had been watching, secretly broke into a cold sweat.
This scene was terrifying to watch, not to mention the man on death row. Not to mention how reckless he was, no matter how heroic he was, he wouldn't be able to withstand it.
Seeing that Zhu Yunxi had a bad look on his face, Li Jinglong turned to Zhang Yanqing, the head of the Criminal Department, and said, "What kind of ghosts and monsters have you raised in the Criminal Department? Ah!" After saying that, he quickly apologized to Zhu Yunxi, "Your Majesty, I am Meng Lang, I shouldn't have taken the Emperor with you.
come here......."
"Whatever mistakes you have made, it's up to me to see for myself!"
After the words faded, the man's confession was heard from the execution room, "The case was done by Tian Jiucheng and I, he is from Shaanxi..."
"Aren't they from Shandong?" the jailer shouted, "when you were interrogated several times before, you said they were Shandong thieves."
The strong man on death row said feebly, "That's a lie to you!"
"Are you telling the truth this time?"
"Not a single lie!" The man on death row smiled weakly, "I just want to die quickly now. Telling lies again will make my death unhappy!"
"You know the truth, go on, who else is Tian Jiucheng? Where in Shaanxi are they from? Where is the den of thieves?" The jailer asked again and again.
"Their leader is Tian Jiucheng, and the others are Li Puzhi, Gao Fuxing, He Mianshun, and Wang Jingang. Most of them are from Miuxian County, and everyone is good at riding horses. Tian Jiucheng and others once served as soldiers in the guard station, but later fled...
..."
Deserter from the Guard?
Outside, Zhu Yunxi heard it clearly and immediately realized that this was not a simple case of robbing a government warehouse.
At the same time, Li Jinglong's brows also frowned.
"Long live Lord, it does happen! In the 25th year of Hongwu's reign, the Ningxia guard had two sentry horses and twenty-four people, but they became deserters for no reason. Seventeen war horses and ten cannons were also missing.
, Zhang Gong, ten pairs of iron armor!" Although Li Jinglong seemed to be unformed, he spoke openly when it came to these military files, "For this reason, the old prince was furious, and all the commanders of Ningxia households and those with more than a thousand households were beheaded.
Including a marquis!"
"Go and interrogate!" Zhu Yunxi solemnly said to Li Jinglong.
The latter nodded immediately and took Zhang Yanqing directly into the execution room. After the jailers saluted, Li Jinglong sat directly on the main seat and said, "What you are saying is that you and Tian Jiucheng and other Shaanxi deserters robbed Yangzhou Station together."
Warehousing?”
"yes!"
"Where did they serve as soldiers?"
"Ningxia Guard!"
"How do you know each other?" Li Jinglong asked again.
"When Tian Jiucheng and others became deserters and fled to Yangzhou incognito, they worked as head guards at Zhuangzi under the jurisdiction of Fayu Temple. That's when I got acquainted with them. Later, the imperial court did not allow temples to have land to inspect temples.
When their property was confiscated, they lost their livelihood and started to become kidnappers and strongmen!”
The door of the execution room was open, and Zhu Yunxi could see what was going on inside and hear the sounds inside.
At first glance, the death row prisoner's words seemed to be perfect, but when you think about it carefully, they are full of loopholes.
It is not easy to keep one's name anonymous. Without the household registration certificate issued by the government as a guide, even ordinary people from good families dare not go out, let alone a group of deserters.
Furthermore, to say that they fled from Shaanxi to Yangzhou, just hiding their names is far from convincing.
"But they only seek money, not killing people. I work as an archer in the Yamen, and when they kidnap people, I always go to make peace. We all know each other, and we have quite good tempers when we go back and forth, so we are like brothers!" the death row prisoner continued.
"Brother? Hehe, it's true that they helped you rob Yangzhou Station because you lost your job to vent your anger!" Li Jinglong sneered, "And they gave you all the money without taking any of it. I'm afraid that's not true.
