ps: Thanks to book friend Zhen Qingmang for the reward of 10,000 starting coins
Gu Cheng would not regret it, but Wei Junshan did.
He regretted that he shouldn't have waited so long and should have done it faster, otherwise he wouldn't have fallen into Gu Cheng's hands.
In the gloomy little dark room, Wei Junshan was tied up in the middle, surrounded by a group of big men wearing black armor looking at him eagerly.
Gu Cheng said calmly: "Say it, it will save me the trouble of taking action, and you will also suffer less physical pain."
Wei Junshan gritted his teeth and said, "What did Master Gu want me to say? I don't know what to say?"
Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "You really don't shed tears until you see the coffin. Are you really not afraid of death?"
Wei Junshan gave a strange laugh and said: "Master Gu, don't bother, I'm afraid of death, but you don't dare to kill me.
Believe it or not, someone will take me away from the Supervision Department tomorrow.
No matter what you ask me today, I don’t know.”
Gu Cheng was too lazy to talk nonsense with him. He waved directly and said to Liu Yuanping: "You come and greet him."
Although Liu Yuanping was not good at torture, he was a good friend of the previous head of the Torture Department, and he had heard of some methods.
Seeing Liu Yuanping walking toward him with a sneer, Wei Junshan shuddered, but gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.
Gu Cheng left the small dark room at this time, and a scream like a slaughtering pig suddenly came from inside the room.
He is a soft-hearted person and cannot see such a scene, so just looking at the results is enough.
But half a quarter of an hour later, Liu Yuanping came out with a dark face and said: "Sir, that damn fat guy didn't say anything until he fainted.
It’s not that there’s anything wrong with my methods. Although I dare not compare him to the Torture Division, that fat guy is not one of those hard-boiled people.”
Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly, what did Wei Junshan know?
No one is not afraid of death, but Wei Junshan refused to kill him. Obviously, for him, he would die faster after talking, and it was really possible for him to survive until someone came to save him.
The last time Li Xiaoqing came to ask for Murong Hou, it was considered very reluctant. After all, it was the Murong family, and Gu Cheng gave him face.
This time it's Wei Junshan, who is just a wandering cultivator. He won't do this again, right?
And just when Wei Junshan was brought back to the Supervision Department, on Yujing Mountain, twenty miles outside the capital, there was a real Yujing man wearing a fiery red Taoist robe, with three long beards, and a fairy-like Taoist appearance.
Feng Taisu frowned and said to himself: "I'm afraid something happened to that guy Wei Junshan."
As he spoke, several copper coins in Feng Taisu's hand rotated rapidly and floated in the air: "Jian Gua, the road through water and mountains is difficult, and there are dangers ahead."
The copper coins were spinning rapidly again, but in the end they were shapeless and scattered on the ground.
Feng Taisu frowned and said: "Is it like this again? There are many powerful people in the capital, and the heavenly secrets have been messed up. We can only make a rough calculation, and the hexagrams will be interrupted if they are a little more detailed."
A man in black with a sword stood behind Feng Taisu and said in a deep voice: "National Master, normally Wei Junshan should have returned to Yujing Mountain by now, and the curfew has been imposed in the capital. I'm afraid something really happened to him."
When we get to the capital, let me go and have a look."
Feng Taisu shook his head and said: "The hexagram is not very good, so I'd better go in person.
That guy Wei Junshan doesn't open his mouth for free. Whether it's me or others, they will basically give him a face.
But he hasn't come back yet, which proves that that person doesn't even want to give me face, so what's the use of you going?
Besides, your identity is sensitive. Although not everyone will recognize you, it’s better to be cautious.”
Leaving the man in black on Yujing Mountain, Feng Taisu stepped into the air and disappeared in an instant.
In the Inspectorate Department, the fat man Wei Junshan can be said to be stubborn to the end, even tougher than a tough guy.
Hong Dingshan frowned and said, "Master Gu, are you sure this fat man really knows something?"
Gu Cheng asked back: "Do you feel like this guy is a tough guy?"
Hong Dingshan shook his head firmly and said: "It doesn't look like that. With this guy's virtue, if the barbarians from the north attack him, he will definitely surrender."
Gu Cheng said calmly: "That's right. Since this guy has this kind of virtue, the more stubborn he is now, the more suspicious he looks."
Hong Dingshan clicked his tongue and said, "Mr. Gu, didn't you say before that he used the prince to suppress others?
If we can pry open the other party's mouth and prove that the other party is indeed related to the prince, that would be a great achievement."
Gu Cheng was a little surprised and said: "General Hong is very dissatisfied with the prince?"
The two parties would definitely not discuss such a sensitive topic before.
However, now that both parties are jointly in charge of the Inspection Department, their relationship has become much closer after going through several missions, and their interests are now aligned, so they can talk about such sensitive topics.
Hong Dingshan hummed: "It's not that I'm not satisfied with the prince, but that all the people in the military are not satisfied with the prince.
The Shenwu Guards are responsible for protecting the royal family and have the closest relationship with the royal family. Many of the generals of the Shenwu Guards are even members of the royal family or even retainers.
But look at who in the entire Shenwu Guard is close to the prince? Not even a school captain!
The prince is too cowardly. The military is a knife in Da Gan's hand. Although the knife is sharp, it still depends on whose hand it is.
If it is held in the hands of the prince, no matter how sharp the knife is, it will become a soft knife."
Gu Cheng nodded understandingly. This attitude of the military was not surprising.
Only when there is war can there be military merit. If you encounter a weak king and think about giving in and compromising when encountering problems, then why not die of frustration?
At this moment, a hint of coldness suddenly came from the surroundings, and even a touch of frost appeared on Hong Dingshan's armor.
Hong Dingshan frowned slightly, with a solemn look in his eyes.
Gu Cheng then secretly said: Here we come!
If no one came to rescue Wei Junshan today, then Gu Cheng might have really wronged the fat man and treated him as an apology by inviting him to a brothel for a month.
But now that he had just been arrested, someone came to save him. Is this a background that a casual cultivator can have?
On the long street at the end of the Inspectorate, Feng Taisu was dressed in a Taoist robe as red as fire, but the aura emanating from his body was as cold as ice.
Gu Cheng and Hong Dingshan raised their aura to the peak at the same time, otherwise they would not be able to withstand each other's aura.
"Feng Taisu, a poor fellow, you two should know why I am here."
Feng Taisu's words were very soft, but they sounded like thunder in the ears of Gu Cheng and Hong Dingshan.
This is one of the five great national masters of Daqian, and the only one who does not have a sect behind him, but is a casual cultivator. His strength is extraordinary.
The other party is a strong man in the third realm of Qi refining and the realm of fugue. The last time the Maitreya Cult made such a big fuss, it was because the other party planned to kill the deputy leader of the Maitreya Cult.
There is a difference between the fifth level and the third level by two great realms, but how many times is the gap between the two great realms? It is probably dozens of times or even hundreds of times!
Gu Cheng took a deep breath, cupped his hands and said, "Greetings to the Imperial Preceptor, but please make it clear that we don't know why the Imperial Preceptor is here."
"I don't know? Didn't you arrest Wei Junshan? He was a Taoist priest from Yujing Mountain. You, the Inspector General, are so brave, arresting people without any evidence.
His Majesty gave you the right to supervise the capital and suppress chaos, and this is how you use it? Using public weapons for private purposes is lawless!"
There was a cold look in Feng Taisu's eyes, and the cold aura around him was getting stronger and stronger. Gu Cheng and Hong Dingshan could even feel a slight killing intent from each other!
"Pindao has been in charge of the capital for so many years, and he has some respect for your majesty. Now if I kill you two guys who are smearing your majesty and abusing your authority, your majesty will not be able to say anything!"
Hong Dingshan's eyes showed a look of horror. He really didn't expect this scene.
After hearing what Gu Cheng said about Wei Junshan, he always thought that the fat man should be the prince's man, but he never expected that Feng Taisu would be recruited this time.
Feng Taisu, one of the five great national masters, usually paid no attention to the affairs of the capital and rarely even came to the capital. But at this time, how could he be so angry for a casual cultivator like Wei Junshan? He even sensed the other party.
murderous intent!
Staring at Gu Cheng and Hong Dingshan, Feng Taisu's murderous intent was not a bluff, but a real murderous intention.
Because he wasn't sure whether that guy Wei Junshan had revealed anything that he shouldn't have said, killing him and silencing him was the safest option.
But thinking about it carefully, it would be useless even if he killed Hong Dingshan and Gu Cheng.
If Wei Junshan really said something he shouldn't have said, then the entire Inspectorate would know about it, so he couldn't possibly destroy the entire Inspectorate, right?
As one of the five great national masters, Feng Taisu had no connection with the imperial court and was independent from the imperial court.
With his strength and position, there is indeed no problem in killing the two masters, Junjun and Yasuyesi, but it would be outrageous if he also eliminated the Inspectorate Department that His Majesty had just established.
At this moment, a voice laughed loudly: "Master, please don't be so angry. I, Jingyesi, work mainly for stability. Sometimes, even if there is no evidence, I feel that this person is suspicious."
If you bring them back for investigation, you would rather kill them than let them go. This is the capital after all, and a slight oversight can cause big problems."
Fang Henshui came from the other side. Although he was laughing, his eyes were fixed on Feng Taisu.
On the other side, the Shenwu Guard General Li Yuanxing also emerged from the street corner and said calmly: "Master Imperial Advisor, the two people in front of me are the generals of the Imperial Guard and the other is the supervisory envoy of Jingyesi. They are both important officials of the imperial court.
, just because you have been arrested, you want to shout and kill them. Isn’t this a bit unreasonable? "
Hong Dingshan looked at Gu Cheng in surprise. When did he invite these two people?
No wonder Gu Cheng was so calm, it turned out that he had been prepared for it.
There was a commander, a fourth-level martial arts general, Shenwuwei, and a relative of the emperor. With these two around, Feng Taisu really didn't dare to do anything to them.
