Chapter 584 584 Saving lives is as important as food
Everyone in the Demon Sect was busy discussing countermeasures to deal with the immediate crisis. Xiao Jiuan's people were not idle either. They captured the Seventh Son of the Demon Sect and the Great Protector of the Demon Sect, and tortured them, trying to extract information about the Demon Sect from the eight people's mouths.
The headquarters is located.
The status of the Seven Sons of the Demon Cult was obviously not high in the Demon Cult. After being tortured several times, they said a lot of things, but none of them were important matters. At least to Xiao Jiuan, what they said was of no use.
There is still a clear boundary between the Jianghu and the imperial court. If the Demon Sect had not offended Xiao Jiuan this time, he would not have intervened in the disputes between the Jianghu and the Jianghu. The secrets of the Jianghu mentioned by the Demon Sect's seven sons were really of no use to him.
Unless the Jianghu people are involved with the court, he will not take action against the Jianghu people easily.
At least where is the headquarters of the Demon Cult?
The most common thing said by the Seven Demonic Cult members is that they don’t know. Judging from the torturers, they really don’t know.
Since they don't know, these seven people are of no use to Xiao Jiuan, and those who are useless will only die.
Xiao Jiuan left the person to Li Yuan and let him deal with it.
The Seven Sons of the Demon Cult were the ones who carried out the order and destroyed the entire Li family. Li Yuan had been trying to kill them all these years, but when they were right in front of him, Li Yuan found that he was not happy at all, and even felt that there was no point in killing them.
.
Even if he killed these seven people, his family would not be able to survive, and he would not be able to come back from the twenty years he spent in the palace.
But even so, Li Yuan still stabbed them in pieces!
Revenge is his belief and the driving force that supports him to live until now. Even if he kills these seven people, he is not happy at all, he will still do it.
Back then, the seven members of the Demon Cult stabbed his family several times, and he stabbed seven of them several times.
That day, everyone in Zhuangzi heard the screams coming from the torture room. They did not stop all night, and the screams did not subside until dawn.
Zhuangzi didn't take it seriously at all. He went to sleep as usual at night and woke up the next day in high spirits, as if nothing had happened. On the contrary, Li Yuan, who had taken revenge, looked listless and hopeless.
If Ji Yunkai were here, seeing him like this, he might be able to comfort the people in Yanbei Palace and Zhuangzi?
Don't think about it. Don't say that they haven't thought about comforting Li Yuan. Even if they have thought about it, they won't say anything. Comforting people is never what they are good at. It is more practical to let them kill people.
As for Fei Xiaochai?
He did comfort Li Yuan, but it would be better not to comfort him at all.
Fei Xiaochai saw that Li Yuanshui looked like he had lost his life goal, and said in a very unsatisfied tone: "I told you not to kill those seven people. Look... if you kill them, will you still have pursuits in the rest of your life?"
"Can't you just raise them like grass like the prince did? It doesn't cost much anyway."
"If you catch the leader of the Demon Cult in the future, you must not kill him. If you kill him, how will you spend the remaining ten years?"
"I said you are also stupid. If your enemy kills your whole family, you kill his whole family. Can't you take the time to have more children and rebuild a family while you are seeking revenge? Now it's better, your big revenge can be
I reported it, but you still don’t have a home.”
"But it's too late now. You are so old and have stayed in the palace for more than twenty years. That thing is definitely useless. Even if I give you a group of women, let alone a woman, you can't build one.
Home."
"I said, Uncle Li, you are so pitiful... Seeing how pitiful you are, I reluctantly treat you as a family member. When you die, I will remember to burn paper money for you."
"Not just me, but my son and grandson will all remember to burn money for you in the future. After all, you are so pitiful. Without me, no one would remember to burn paper money for you."
…
Li Yuan swore that he had never heard anyone as comforting as Fei Xiaochai, but...
Inexplicably, he felt that what Fei Xiaochai said made sense, and he seemed to be comforted. At least his mood was not as low as before.
Well, the main reason was that Fei Xiaochai was in his ear, chattering a bunch of stupid things, which made him have the urge to beat people up, and he had no time to think about those things...
Fei Xiaochai was not comforting but more than comforting, Li Yuan quickly cheered up again and threw himself into a new wave of battle.
You know, their battle with the Demon Cult has just begun.
The Great Protector of the Demon Sect knows a lot about the Demon Sect, but here comes the problem, and he won’t tell him!
Although the Great Protector of the Demon Sect is a bit greedy for life and afraid of death, he is indeed a man. No matter how Xiao Jiuan's people torture him, he will not reveal the location of the Demon Sect.
"Your Majesty, he refuses to recruit." The torturers spent three days trying but could not pry open the mouth of the Great Protector, but they were sure that the Great Protector knew where the Demon Cult was.
"Put him in solitary confinement until he is willing to speak." Xiao Jiuan is not in a hurry. The leader of the Demon Cult has not returned yet, so he has plenty of time to waste.
Confinement is commonly used in the military, and it is the Yanbei Army's usual method of punishing erring soldiers. The effect is not very good, but it is more impressive than a beating.
On the same day, the great protector of the demon sect was locked in a dark room without any light. There was water and food orders in the room. He could eat when he was hungry and drink by himself when he was thirsty. But there was no one and no light, so he could only stay alone.
inside.
"Don't think that if you torture me in another way, I will tell you. I'm not afraid of your torture, so why would I be afraid of this little trick?" As soon as the Demon Sect's Great Protector entered, he knew what King Yan Bei had planned.
It's just taking advantage of people's hearts. This kind of trick may be useful to others, but it is of no use to the people of their demon sect.
They have stayed in dark places all year round. They have become accustomed to darkness and feel more comfortable in dark places.
King Yanbei's people didn't say anything. They locked the great protector in and then left. There was no sound after that.
The Great Protector sat in the dark room for a long time, but no one came to ask questions. He sneered and groped for food and water in the darkness.
As long as he is full and has strength, he will be able to run out sooner or later. When he goes out, he will definitely make the chickens and dogs of Yanbei Palace uneasy...
Xiao Jiu'an's people are sparing no effort to pry open the mouth of the Great Protector, and Xu Ziqi's people are searching for traces of the Demon Cult all over the mountain. At the same time, they do not forget to transport the black stones from the mountain and the black mud from the ground back to Beichen.
After Xu Ziqi's repeated tests, the black stones on Black Rock Mountain, mixed with the black mud underground, can not only burn, but also burn for a long time, with little smoke smell, no particularly obvious sparks, and will not cause any discomfort if left for a long time.
It feels suffocating and it is not easy to burn things.
The burning black stone is not an important thing to Tianqi, Nanjiang and Tianwu, but to Beichen, it is indeed a life-saving thing, not much worse than food.
For these black stones, Xu Ziqi is willing to cooperate not only with King Yanbei, but also with Tianqi... (To be continued)
