Without going to the Shuntian Mansion Office or the Nancheng Army and Horses Department, Ah Liu took his captives directly back to the gate of Zhangyuan on horseback. At this time, the remaining guards had already started patrolling with orders, so under the wall before
The mighty and majestic guard was no longer visible at this time, but the two concierges Yang Hao and Zheng Dang were guarding the gate very conscientiously.
When they saw Ah Liu throw a person from his horse like a sandbag, and then he jumped down, but he came first, and before landing, he hooked his toes and put the person down steadily, the two teenagers
Forget about Yin Xian, he only regrets his poor martial arts skills.
They hurriedly came forward and took a look at the guy at Ah Liu's feet. Zheng Dang asked cautiously: "Brother Six, who is this guy?"
"Assassin." Ah Liu burst out two words. Seeing the two young men jumping back in shock, he said calmly, "They are just half-dead assassins. What are you afraid of? Go and report to the young master.
!”
After saying this, he leaned over and grabbed the person's belt, and then dragged the person towards the door. Yang Hao and Zheng Dang who were following behind looked at each other, one hurriedly led the horse, and the other hurriedly chased after Ah Liu.
, seeing Ah Liu dragging the person into the threshold regardless, not even looking at the other person's head hitting the threshold hard, they couldn't help but feel pain for him as they looked at him.
Next, is Ah Liu going to clean up this assassin, hang him up, and then let people taste Ah Liu's version of the eighteen tortures? That will definitely be many times more powerful than the torture room in the Yamen they heard about, and the other party will definitely
I cried and begged for mercy, was so scared that I peeed, and then wanted to give away everything I ate for three meals a day...
When Zhang Shou, who was still sorting out the batch of manuscripts for Lu Sanlang in the study, received the report from Yang Hao, he was stunned. And when Yang Haolian and Zheng Dang all shared their thoughts, he was even more stunned.
I can't laugh or cry - you two little guys who adore Ah Liu so much, you might as well just follow people behind and shout 666.
After getting rid of the ridiculousness, he still couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead when he thought that Ah Liu had brought back a prisoner who was claimed to be an assassin. This really caused big news for him!
Although he didn't even know when Ah Liu went out, he was even more confused about the origin of this assassin, and he had no interest in the origin of the so-called assassin, but since it was Ah Liu who took the trouble to bring the person
He couldn't just ignore what was coming back, so after thinking about it, he had to put on a cloak and follow Yang Hao out the door.
Because Ah Liu came back, the front door had been locked, and Yang Hao and Zheng Dang had also changed shifts. As soon as Zhang Shou went out, he saw Zheng Dang running towards him, out of breath.
Said: "Master, Master, Sixth Brother took people to Tiangongfang... Is this because they were tortured and afraid of being overheard, so they went there?"
The more Zhang Shou listened, the more he felt that this was completely unreasonable. In his impression, although Ah Liu was cruel to unrelated people, and he was a student of Yu Huaqi, it was reasonable to know the technique of torture, but at home, it was reasonable.
The Tiangongfang was located in the underground area that had been excavated on a large scale by King Lu. There was no reason for Ah Liu to go to such a long time to torture an assassin and take him there.
Besides, there are a group of precious technical nerds there. Wouldn’t it be frightening to death to hear the cries of ghosts and wolves? So, feeling extremely bizarre, he said angrily: “Stop being verbose and take me there!”
When Zhang Shou hurried to Tiangongfang, he saw that the underground secret door had been opened. However, Ah Liu was standing outside with the prisoner in his arms, talking to Guan Qiu, who had obviously come out from inside.
"Xiaoguan, didn't you say before that there was a shortage of experimental materials? It's hard to get them from death row prisoners. I didn't expect that I happened to bump into an assassin who didn't want his life today. Anyway, no one cares about his life and death, so just make the best use of them.
Already."
Zhang Shou couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Ah Liu Sha talking such nonsense in a serious manner. When did Ah Liu, who always used force to defeat cleverness, actually know how to use this kind of trick of fighting wits instead of strength? And what surprised him even more
However, Guan Qiu, an honest man who never took credit in his eyes, actually nodded and said: "Okay, Sixth Brother, just keep the person!"
Ah Liu nodded, and suddenly but regretfully sighed: "I'm afraid it's not enough for one person to test the medicine. It's a pity that there is only one assassin. It would be nice if there were a few more!"
Guan Qiu smiled shyly: "Brother Zhang said last time that the Cinchona sacred tree can only be planted in extremely hot places such as Qiongzhou Prefecture, but this time the tree is rare, but it can be planted anywhere.
.But after transplanting, whether the juice can have the effect of sealing the throat after seeing blood cannot be tested only on cats, dogs, chickens and ducks, but must be tested on people. If Brother Six has more people in the future, just send them all."
"The more the merrier. After all, how much dose will be effective and whether drug resistance will develop must be tested carefully."
The two people discussed such a scary topic as if nothing had happened. Not to mention that Yang Hao and Zheng Dang were so frightened that they hid behind Zhang Shou. Even Zhang Shou himself felt a bit toothache after listening to it. This was a dialogue without dialogue in advance? How could he?
It sounds like it has been carefully designed and designed for a long time but has not been put to use?
Just when he saw Ah Liu dragging the person up to throw him to Guan Qiu, a voice suddenly sounded: "Master Liu, Master Liu, please spare your life! The younger one is indeed just a pawn under the instructions of others, but the younger one knows a lot of things, don't
Use the little one to test the medicine, the little one is very useful... Oh, Mr. Liu, please forgive me, you can hit or scold me as much as you want, but don't use the little one to test the medicine!"
Hearing people's mouths one after another, they were really begging for mercy. The sadness of the voice was so sad that it made the listener cry. Zhang Shou finally couldn't help but laugh. And Ah Liu seemed to have just realized that he was coming.
Yes, he turned his head and looked around, then let go, and then asked sarcastically: "Why are you here, Master?"
But Guan Qiu realized that Zhang Shou had come in person. He was so happy that he turned around and ran away without saying a word. Not only did he escape, but also Tiangong
The secret doors of the workshop were all closed again, and it became clear that he was a thief with a guilty conscience.
Faced with this scene, Ah Liu was so angry that he cursed: "This Guan Qiu is really useless!"
Zhang Shou relied on his understanding of the two teenagers to see that they were acting together, but the unlucky prisoner didn't know that. He saw the young man who had just partnered with Ah Liuyi to try some kind of bloody throat-sealing poison on him escaped.
Seeing that the ruthless Ah Liu suddenly became honest, and being convinced of Zhang Shou's identity, he immediately grabbed this life-saving straw with all his strength.
"Xueshi Zhang, Xueshi Zhang! What I just said is true! Jiang Zhuoer, who is well-known in the underground circles of the capital, was hired by someone with a lot of money to intercept Mr. Liu, so that he must not come back tonight! Then!
The employer definitely wants to do something wrong with your mansion, so he wants to trap Mr. Liu."
"There was definitely more than one Xiao Xiao who was hired. He told Xiao Xiao that there were six more people who would intercept him along the way, so Xiao Xiao tried to escape as soon as he missed a hit, but in the end he still couldn't escape from Liu Ye's ten fingers! But then
Those people who came down probably saw the kid being captured, so they were all too scared to take action. But just because they didn’t take action, it doesn’t mean they didn’t confiscate the money!”
"Really, I have a certain reputation in the capital. I have always helped some officials to do some dirty things to eradicate the roots. I know the secrets of many wealthy families! Also, I know this circle of people who collect money to do things. Don't
Look at the new official Zhu Dagong, who has been cleaning up the capital again and again, but these people are hiding in the deepest place, but he doesn't know!"
"As long as your Excellency spares me a lot, I will be willing to come forward and testify!"
Originally, he only thought that what he caught was small shrimps, but now that he heard these words, Zhang Shou couldn't help but smile. Although it was not a big fish, it was at least a plump loach. Although he had so-called secrets about the so-called ministers,
In fact, he wasn't interested either, but he still glanced at Yang Hao and Zheng Dang, who were coming to watch the fun.
Under his stern gaze, the two teenagers reluctantly bowed their heads and retreated. At this time, Zhang Shoucai looked at Ah Liu and said, "I will ask you about the drug test later. Take the person with you.
The secret room!”
After receiving Zhang Shou's instructions, Ah Liu raised the corner of his mouth, then stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Zhuoer's hair and dragged her away. Compared to when he dragged her away just now, it was more simple and crude at this time.
Her hair was pulled and her scalp was in severe pain. Although she wanted to struggle desperately, the arrows had not been removed from the three places where arrows were hit on her body. If she resisted any longer, she might be maimed. The unlucky Jiang Zhuoer did not dare to struggle.
Na desperately begged for mercy: "Sixth Master, please spare my life! Master Zhang, please spare my life! I am really just being instigated by others, and I am not entirely greedy for money. Others are using my family to threaten me..."
However, Ah Liu, who disliked others talking the most, responded to his chatter with one action. He took out a handkerchief and simply stuffed it into his mouth, blocking his subsequent words.
After taking Jiang Zhuo'er to the completely independent and isolated secret room under Zhang Shou's study, Ah Liu lit the oil lamp and saw Jiang Zhuo'er looking around, his whole body shaking like chaff, and he started laughing.
Under the dim light, his smile was scarier than a ghost. In addition, Jiang Zhuoer could clearly see that there were chains and shackles on the walls of the secret room, and the color of the walls seemed a little darker, as if soaked in blood.
, although I didn’t see any of the eighteen torture instruments, I could tell with just my toes that a good house would have such a torture chamber underground.
People in the capital say that Zhang Xueshi, who became famous at a young age, is gentle and elegant, and looks like an immortal. But if they see this scene, they will definitely realize that it was all an illusion before. This is not an immortal. This is a person who has returned from Jiuyou.
The devil is right!
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhuoer, who was also a fierce man when he stood up straight, did not dare to show any anger. Seeing Ah Liu effortlessly locking his wrists and feet into the shackles on the wall, he did not dare to resist.
All I could do was babbling and trying desperately to speak.
Fortunately, this time, he heard a voice that sounded like fairy music: "Ah Liu, please remove the gag cloth, lest someone's nose becomes stuffy and the person suffocates to death."
Ah Liu glanced sideways at Jiang Zhuoer, who was chained to the wall with a pleading face, and then casually took out the gag and threw it on the ground. Seeing the man sucking in big breaths, he turned to look at Zhang Shou
, as if asking, can I continue to scare this person?
But Zhang Shou shook his head and then said calmly: "What did you just say that many officials and people hire murderers to do some messy and dirty things in your underground circle?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Jiang Zhuoer nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. He wished he could use the most sincere words to dispel the idea of torture. He said in a swearing tone, "If you dare to make a false statement, I will discipline you."
There are five thunders from the sky! I can tell you, Master Zhang, now that Mr. Kong Jiu from the Confucius University family, he once..."
Before anyone could reveal the specific secrets of the Kong family, Zhang Shou interrupted unhurriedly: "I'm not interested in what Mr. Kong Jiu has done. What I'm interested in is, since you can swear by
Tell me that Mr. Kong Jiu has been looking for you, then who is the person who paid you a lot of money to intercept Ah Liu today?"
"Or you don't need to say who it is, just tell me where he is from! Don't fool me with empty words, I want clues and evidence. If it turns out that one of your words is false, then you don't have to live.
!”
Wang Zhuoer finally took stock of the information in his mind that could be used for bargaining, but Zhang Shou suddenly smashed the additional conditions, and he immediately complained secretly.
People who find people to do dirty work in the black market always want to add layers of disguise to themselves so that no one can see through them. But even so, people like them who do things in private can also get through the people who do it.
A man who is profitable will look for clues. And he is even more thoughtful. Whenever he takes on such a job, he will even secretly follow the contactor.
Even though those people are often very careful, and they are just roles promoted by big shots, he can still catch the first clue out of ten times. As for the one or two times he missed, it was because he had negotiated a deal with him.
People died in just a few days.
Of course, the information he wrote down in the booklet was intended to be used to extort money from the big shots in the future when he was too old and disabled to work in this business, and disappeared after taking the money. However, he did not expect that it would be used as a pawn today.
Money to buy life.
But this time when he took over the task of intercepting Ah Liu, he originally thought the risk was quite high. After the deal was settled, he followed the same pattern and pursued him. As expected, he found out that the person actually contacted several well-known people on the black market after him.
The person who does the dirty work.
However, when he wrote down those colleagues one by one, and then followed the clues, planning to follow that person to his lair and then observe who was in contact with this person, the result was that the boat capsized in the gutter! It should be noted that he has always been extremely talented and has a nose as big as a dog.
Therefore, when contacting the other party, he secretly sprinkled special medicinal powder on the other party. Who knew that the smell actually disappeared outside a famous bathhouse in Beijing!
He originally planned to fool him by casually telling a man behind the scenes, but Zhang Shou made it clear that he wanted clues and evidence. Jiang Zhuoer only felt that he was forced to the edge of the cliff. He was speechless, but he caught a glimpse of the man beside him who had ambushed him to no avail.
The young man smiled sinisterly, and he couldn't help shouting: "I don't know who is behind the scenes, but I know who the other people who took over the task are!"
"Also...if Academician Zhang is not interested in those secrets, I...I am willing to lead the horse and pedal for you, doing the work of a dog and a horse!"
