Li Yan returned to Luoyang. As soon as he entered the city, he received good news.
Di Renjie and Guo Yuanzhen locked the Yaren organization under Shang Gong and sent troops to surround them.
The moment Yang Zaiwei heard this, he galloped out: "I'll help them!"
When it comes to catching human traffickers, you can always trust this person's enthusiasm. Li Yan did not stop him and asked the internal guards who came to report the details for details.
When he heard that Bai Qi made the monk's resume before becoming a monk public, he nodded slightly. When he heard Guo Yuanzhen proposed that the monk be used as a spy to get close to the Yaren, he raised his eyebrows again: "Well done, this move is worth publicizing!"
In the current general environment, Buddhism is like an aristocratic family. It is impossible to suppress it to the end. It has to be slapped and given a sweet date. The slap is harder and the sweet date is smaller.
The cooperation between Cheng Wuzhong and Guo Yuanzhen did not communicate in advance, but it achieved the effect invisibly. This rhythm is very good.
Li Yan trusted Di Renjie's ability and Yang Zaiwei's force, and was not anxious. He escorted Ashina Huan, who was still sleeping, to the outside of Xiuwenfang at a normal speed.
In the distance, they saw Di Renjie and Guo Yuanzhen, one sitting upright on the horse and giving instructions, while the other came to the front to watch, both with serious expressions on their faces.
Fierce confrontations and screams came from the workshop, and the resistance inside was extremely fierce, because if caught, they would die.
The internal guards and imperial guards who were arresting people would not show any mercy. They used strong bows and crossbows, aimed at the vital points, and arrested people for the purpose of incapacitating them.
However, the number of people hiding in the den of thieves was unexpectedly large, and they also had crossbows to fight back. These were obviously more than simple tooth people, but plum blossom guards trained by Shang Gong, doing the work of tooth people.
Seeing that he was blocked and there were children crying inside, Li Yan grabbed the handle of the chain knife and prepared to take action.
At this moment, a group of monks holding Shaolin sticks rushed out to protect a group of children.
They advanced and retreated to support each other, and they had a good formation. The shadows of their sticks swept around, and they cooperated tacitly. In an instant, they turned into an arrow and shot out diagonally from behind.
Li Yan nodded slightly, approvingly.
To be fair, although the Shaolin Temple is full of dirt and has no Buddhist atmosphere, the monks and soldiers in the temple practice martial arts really well. They are not just practicing to death, but they are really capable of actual combat. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are full of martial virtue.
As soon as the children were rescued and there was no longer any hostage to worry about, the imperial army suddenly became more energetic. As the bowstrings trembled, the number of arrows shot increased greatly.
The scene of arrows falling like rain in the TV series is impossible to appear in reality. The Tang Dynasty's armaments would not be so extravagant and wasteful. However, while ensuring a certain accuracy, increasing the number of arrows formed
The blow was terrifying.
Death screams were heard one after another, and in just a few breaths, more than twenty Meihua internal guards fell into a pool of blood. The offensive collapsed instantly, and the Forbidden Army at the front pressed forward directly with shields.
Knowing that no matter how unlucky he was, staying behind would definitely lead to a clean sweep. An old woman's voice rang out: "Go away... ah!!"
However, as soon as she gave the order, a lightning-like figure rushed over, broke into the enemy group, picked up the old woman's arms, and pulled them.
In a scream of extreme pain, the old woman's arm was torn off. Yang Zaiwei was bathed in Ya Po's blood. He reached out with his fingers, pinched her face, and slapped her hard on the ground.
With a bang, blood and flesh splattered. Looking at the broken corpse and feeling the killing intent in Yang Zaiwei, the morale of the plum blossom guards completely collapsed. They all dropped their weapons and surrendered: "Don't kill."
We! We surrender!"
Yang Zaiwei's eyes glared angrily, he picked up a girl and asked, "Who killed Yang Youniang?"
The plum blossom inner guard was terrified: "Who is Yang...Yang Youniang?"
Yang Zaiwei said bitterly: "She is the daughter of the Hongnong Yang family that you abducted before!"
The plum blossom inner guard pointed to the room: "That little lady was taken out by Grandma Qian, and she never came back..."
Yang Zaiwei kicked him unconscious and rushed into the house.
Li Yan released his hand from the handle of the knife, and Di Renjie and Guo Yuanzhen came up to greet him: "Liu Lang!"
Li Yan smiled: "I worked hard at the Shaolin Temple to investigate the case, and I felt relieved when I got this good news as soon as I came back!"
Behind him, An Shengan glanced at Ashina Huan, who was sleeping soundly in the prison car, but hesitated to speak.
Maybe someone else is doing the hard work?
Regardless, this is indeed good news.
Di Renjie locked the general area. Finding these thieves was not a problem. The key was to successfully rescue the children abducted by them, which was not easy.
Not far away, monks were holding children. Some were crying loudly, some were being manipulated like wooden bodies, and some had fawning smiles on their faces.
Facing this smile, everyone lost their smiles. Li Yan said: "Kidnapping children is a business with no profit and no profit. People who take risks can never disappear. We can only use heavy punishment to reduce the occurrence of tragedies as much as possible."
"In addition, these children are reunited with their families, and they also publicize the monks' actions of standing up and protecting the people with Buddhism."
Guo Yuanzhen understood the key point: "Understood!"
Di Renjie said: "Liu Lang, after Shang Gong was captured by the confidant of the Governor's Mansion, he has been counting on these subordinates. Now that they have been captured, this person has no one to rely on anymore. It is better to quickly interrogate the truth about King Poyang's rebellion."
, to prevent the people in Jiangnan from suffering unnecessary disasters."
Li Yan nodded and said: "I already know the source of the chaos in Jiangnan, and there will be no chaos there."
Di Renjie was determined: "That's good! That's good!"
Li Yan was about to introduce the strange sleeping murderer behind him when his ears twitched, his complexion changed slightly, his body flashed, and he disappeared in an instant and threw himself into the house.
I saw Yang Zaiwei standing in front of an old woman, murmuring: "Impossible...impossible..."
This godly mother-in-law was older than the one she commanded before, almost the same age as Shang Gong. There was a chill in her slightly cloudy eyes. She looked at Yang Zaiwei and turned a silver needle between her fingers: "You were the most unlucky person under my command at that time.
Obedient, I didn’t expect that after so many years, I would still be so unruly..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yang Zaiwei opened his mouth, with a rare look of fear on his brows, but the moment Granny Qian took out the needle, he immediately rushed forward and hit her on the shoulder with a palm
.
The strength of this palm made Li Yan a little surprised when he entered the house. Granny Qian's shoulders disappeared directly, just like paper, and was smashed into pulp. Then Yang Zaiwei clamped her neck, and the screams were hardened.
Shengsheng pressed it and said coldly: "Do you think I am still the child you tortured day and night?"
There was a look of sincere fear on the face of the godly mother-in-law, a look of begging for mercy in her eyes, and half of her body was trembling.
Yang Zaiwei said: "Don't worry, I won't let you die so happily. My hatred and Yang Youniang's blood feud will be recovered from you bit by bit!"
He vomited with all his strength, pushed Qian Granny unconscious, and barely stopped the blood from her broken shoulder, then turned around and said, "Li Yuanfang, I want to thank you very much. If you hadn't asked me to kill those grannies during the Tibetan period, maybe I would have just
I really don’t have the courage to face this nightmare from the past..."
Li Yan said: "Is this old woman the one who abducted you? Wasn't she already cleared by the internal guards?"
Yang Zaiwei said in a deep voice: "Take this thief to the inner guard. Will Shang Gong explain everything?"
Li Yan nodded: "As long as you are prepared, she will."
Yang Zaiwei's body trembled painfully. He already had the answer in his heart that he was least willing to face, but he forced himself to face it: "Okay... okay... let's go!"
…
Inner prison.
Shang Gong was drowsy and felt as if he was on his deathbed.
However, Qiu Shenji's strength was controlled very well, allowing her to suffer the maximum amount of torture without actually losing her life.
This sense of ups and downs and crazy struggles made Shang Gong want to give up several times, and he told everything without hesitation, just to seek relief.
But her strong desire to survive made her grit her teeth and survive until the sixth day.
She knew that she had reached her limit.
Therefore, when the unconscious Qian Granny and the sleeping Ashina Huan were brought in and hung on the left and right, Shang Gong first looked at them blankly, and then he was not frightened, but felt relieved.
She no longer had any hope that she could finally explain things logically and end this nightmare.
But before that, Shang Gong also made a final request: "Let Qiu Shenji go out! I don't want to see him, not even for a moment! I'll tell you when he goes out!"
Qiu Shenji wanted to leave after hearing this, but Li Yan was not used to this vicious old woman at all: "Shenji, you are right here, you don't have to go anywhere, let's go first and let her continue to be tried!"
Seeing that Li Yan was really going to leave, Shang Gong collapsed: "No...please don't...just treat me like a bitch and don't leave!!"
She burst into tears: "But what exactly do you want to ask? I haven't told me yet... It shouldn't be like this... There is no interrogation like this!"
Li Yan didn't want to waste time, clapped his hands, and Yang Zaiwei walked in: "Do you recognize him?"
Shang Gong looked over with tearful eyes, and then said in shock: "Yang Zaiwei, you actually took refuge in Li Yuanfang? Do you know what happened back then..."
This was obviously a self-destruction due to the complete collapse of psychological defense. Yang Zaiwei clenched his fists. Li Yan saved the effort of explaining and asked directly: "It seems that you really know what happened back then. Tell me, Yang Zaiwei was abducted by Yapo, and later
Being rescued by the inner guards, what happened?"
Shang Gong's answer was concise and to the point, without a word of nonsense: "It was originally the internal strife of your Yang family. Yang Guanshi, the former military commander, had an enmity with your father. He asked me to ask for help. I just wanted to take advantage of the Yang family, so I asked Qian
My mother-in-law kidnapped you."
"I originally planned to put you back at the right time. After all, you are a child of the Yang family. It is risky to take you here rashly. Unexpectedly, you are different from other children. You are full of energy and perseverance. No matter what kind of torture you are subjected to,
, has never given in at all, and is not even willing to be a bait to abduct other children. Grandma Qian has become interested in you. The more you resist, the more vigorously she tortures..."
"This is not just torture, it also requires the selection of talents. The Yaren organization in Laoshen also has the function of selecting and training talents. After all, the number of sinners in the palace is uncontrollable. If you want to grow stronger, you have to take the initiative. At that time, your master happened to be
I came here, silently observed you for a while, and finally selected you."
"Your Yang family's secret skill is Yuchang Jin. You have a foundation in childhood and you have performed so well. Your master pretended to wipe out the Yaren under my command with his inner guards, rescued you, and took you under his tutelage for training...
…”
"As expected, you progressed very quickly, learned the power of knowledge only, and became a top assassin and a powerful assistant. Your master was overjoyed and began to select children from each room of the Yang family. On the one hand, he hoped to repeat this success, and on the other hand, he could use
These children make every room afraid of being obedient, and as a result, those children are not as good as you..."
Yang Zaiwei opened his mouth when he heard half of it, subconsciously wanting to interrupt: "No more..."
But in the end he listened to it all and walked out without saying a word.
A moment later, a shrill roar was heard from the prison not far away, revealing endless sorrow.
Li Yan followed him out and stood outside the prison, looking at him without saying a word.
At this moment, any comfort is futile.
Yang Zaiwei doesn't need comfort.
His eyes were red, but his expression had completely calmed down. He was calmer than ever before:
"'Zuoming', we are no longer masters and disciples, but sworn enemies!"
