The linen gagged in the messenger's mouth was pulled out.
Xiaodong held the piece of cloth stained with saliva in disgust, opened the curtain and threw it outside. When he came back, he didn't forget to wipe his hands on the kid.
Xiao Han looked at the piece of cloth and felt that it looked familiar. It wasn't until he saw the messenger drooling and looking like he would rather die than he suddenly remembered that the foot-binding cloth in the military camp seemed to look like that.
Taking a step back in disgust, Xiao Han looked at him and asked, "What's your name?"
The messenger's mouth was a little wide open, his eyes were staring straight at Xiao Han, his face was red from suppressing it, but he couldn't say a word!
"What happened to him? Did you make him mute?"
Xiao Han looked at this man with a strange look, frowned, and asked Xiaodong beside him.
Xiaodong also felt strange at this time. He lowered his head and took a closer look. He immediately knew the reason. He rolled his eyes and said, "Master Hou, this is not smoked. I just stuffed the cloth too hard.
His jaw came off!"
"Dislocated?" Xiao Han waved his hand with a headache: "Catch it! Catch it, I have something to ask him!"
"okay!"
Xiaodong promised, rolled up his sleeves and was about to take action. However, when the poor messenger saw this posture, even if his hands and feet were tied, he still struggled to move back, and kept making "wuwu" sounds in his mouth, just like
Like a frightened little beast.
"do not move!"
Jiayi didn't want to waste time, so he stepped forward and pushed Xiaodong away, stretched out his hand, lifted the messenger's chin upwards, and heard a "Gaba" sound.
The messenger's mouth, which was drooping just now, has now been closed!
"I!"
Feeling that his mouth had regained consciousness, the messenger's first reaction was to curse! But as soon as he cursed a word, he saw Liu Hongji's cold eyes!
At this moment, Liu Hongji didn't look like his usual cheerful self at all. A frightening evil energy seemed to be coming out of his body! Even Xiao Han and the others felt a little chilly when they saw him.
"My...name is Deng San!"
Finally, under these emotionless eyes, the messenger gave in.
"Deng San?"
Hearing the name said by the messenger, Xiao Han nodded and said to him: "I am the leader here! Now, I will make a deal with you: I will ask you a few questions and you answer them truthfully! If you answer well, then I will
What do you think about letting you go back?"
"What? Let me go back?"
Deng San suddenly heard Xiao Han's words, his eyes widened immediately, and he asked as if he couldn't believe it: "You, you said you let me go back? You're not lying to me, are you?"
"Fart, my Marquis can lie to you?!" Xiaodong didn't know why, but he got angry when he saw this guy. He cursed angrily and raised his foot to kick him, but Xiao Han stretched out his hand to block him.
After fending off Xiaodong, Xiao Han squatted in front of Deng San, looked at him seriously and said: "Don't worry, there is actually no difference between killing you and letting you go! So, as long as you answer the questions honestly
, I will definitely let you go!"
Deng San stared at Xiao Han with his eyes, and after a while he gritted his teeth and said: "Okay! This is what you said! If you don't let me go, I will never let you go even if I am a ghost!"
Even if you are a ghost, you will not let anyone go.
This is probably the most helpless announcement a person can make.
It's just that he didn't think about it. If he wasn't afraid of others when he was alive, how could he be afraid of a dead person?
Xiao Han was not bored enough to break Deng San's fantasy. He just frowned and thought for a moment, then decisively asked: "Then let me start asking! When did you receive the order to deliver the letter?"
"when?"
Hearing this question, Deng San could not help but be stunned for a moment. He did not expect that this strange young man would only ask such a simple question.
"In the morning, it's probably between six o'clock and noon!" Deng San replied honestly.
Xiao Han nodded and asked again: "At that time, did you know that the army's food and grass had been exhausted?"
Deng San answered more readily this time: "I know! The black smoke almost covered the sky. Anyone who is not a fool knows it!"
Xiao Han smiled and said, "How much food do you have left?"
"this……"
Hearing this, Deng San paused and rolled his dark eyes. Unexpectedly, a dagger was inserted into his arm the next moment. The sharp blade penetrated the flesh three fingers deep!
"Ouch... there are three days left, no, four or five days, only four or five days left!"
Deng San glanced at the dagger on his arm in horror, and immediately screamed like a slaughtering pig!
He didn't expect that the man with fierce eyes could be so cruel. He just hesitated and went straight to the knife!
Liu Hongji pulled out the knife with an expressionless expression, and then wiped the bloody blade on Deng San's face: "This is just a warning! Don't think about playing tricks. When it comes to playing tricks, I can be your ancestor!"
Deng San didn't know whether he was frightened or in pain. He was trembling all over. He didn't care about his bleeding arms and just nodded his head!
Just now, he really felt that the person in front of him would kill him at any time!
Xiao Hanhan watched all this, waited for Liu Hongji to retreat, then took out a small bag of healing medicine from his arms and threw it to Jiayi, indicating that he would apply it on Deng San, while he continued to ask:
"Have you been traveling all these days? Are you tired?"
After suffering a big loss just now, Deng San learned his lesson.
As soon as Xiao Han finished speaking, he immediately replied: "Yes! His Majesty said that he would wait until he got to the place to rest, so we have been traveling these days, and the brothers are already very tired!"
"Okay, a few last questions." Xiao Han asked slowly: "How many people are you sending the letter this time?"
"Five, five people in total!"
"What are the contents of the letters sent? Are they the same?"
"It's the same, it's the same! Our Majesty was afraid of being intercepted by you, so he specially sent a few more people!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Han felt that there was no need for him to ask any more questions.
Dou Jiande is indeed arrogant. He just wants to send the letter to Wang Shichong. As for whether the content of the letter will be leaked, he doesn't care!
Perhaps, Dou Jiande thought, it would have been better if the letter had been intercepted by the Tang people.
He just wants to use his troops to crush the Tang people openly and openly! Let everyone know that he, Dou Jiande, is the most powerful person on this earth!
Standing up, Xiao Han pondered for a moment, then called someone in the tent and said: "Go to Hulao Pass immediately and hand over the letter we intercepted to King Qin! Tell him again that Xia Jun is confused and exhausted at this time.
It's unbearable! But Dou Jiande is arrogant and arrogant! If there is a chance, he can take the initiative! As for Luoyang, he doesn't have to worry!"
"Here!"
After listening carefully to what Xiao Han said, the man cupped his hands heavily, took the letter and strode away.
After a while, the sound of distant horse hooves could be heard outside the camp.
Looking at the darkness outside, Xiao Han sighed: "Take this person down and let him go tomorrow! As for the others, have a good rest tonight! I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle tomorrow."
