A tragic howl sounded again in the courtyard of Dongchang Prison.
All the prison lieutenants, whether they were on guard duty or resting in their rooms, all looked at the source of the sound.
In the cell, Du Shaoqin, who had been pouring salt on Wang Anliang just now, couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.
Even Duan Tianming, who often stayed by Xiao Chen's side, stared at the sizzling human leg with the other end still connected to Wang Anliang's body, and did not dare to make a sound.
Next to him, the servant of Shangshu Mansion who had been thrown onto the crossbar had already fainted from fear.
Only Dahuang, who was held by the school captain at the door, opened his mouth wide, sniffed the human flesh in the air and asked, "Wangwang" several times, and his mouth was dripping with laughter.
Xiao Chen had no relatives. Wang San, who had taken care of him since childhood, had been killed under the wall of Qinghe Store.
Now, a younger brother who had just been adopted was being trampled to death with specially made horseshoes.
Xiao Chen is not angry, he can no longer be angry.
In his eyes, these people have already sentenced themselves to death since they had such thoughts.
Wang Anliang trembled all over, causing his left calf that was placed on the fire to sway constantly. The chili noodles sprinkled on his leg were shaken into the fire, giving off a choking smell.
"I'm just roasting your calf, why are you shaking it?" Xiao Chen said calmly, and he pulled out the knife from Du Shaoqin who was standing next to him, placed it on the stubble of Wang Anliang's broken bone, and started cutting.
The accompanying knife was extremely sharp and could cut off the boneless calf in just a few strokes.
As pieces of flesh were peeled off from the rough wound, a large amount of blood began to pour out.
"Please, please kill me. Please, please..." Wang Anliang's teeth trembled and he almost died of pain as he began to beg.
Xiao Chen shook his head: "Kill you? I'm not that cruel. However, your broken leg has been bleeding, and I still can't bear it."
As he said this, he grabbed the remaining half of Wang Anliang's leg and thrust it into the fire.
"Ah..." Wang Anliang screamed and fainted.
There was a sizzling sound from where the calf was broken, and a puff of white smoke rose up, along with a burnt smell that floated in the room.
"Let's see, the bleeding has stopped." Xiao Chen let go of Wang Anliang's left leg and let it hang in the air again. He clapped his hands and looked at Du Shaoqin beside him.
"From now on, don't use the salt and chili powder to stop bleeding. If you want to stop bleeding, just make a fire and burn it." Xiao Chen said softly.
Du Shaoqin's forehead also had a faint layer of cold sweat. He bowed slightly and looked at the charred human legs on the fire, without daring to say a word.
The servant next to him had already woken up.
The cold sweat all over his body had wetted his entire cotton-padded clothes, and dripped down to the ground along his feet.
"Sir, in Daxing County outside the capital, there is this private gang, which is the influence of the King of Han. They are planning to launch an assassination operation against your close relatives this time." Seeing Wang Anliang's tragic situation, the subordinate began to take the initiative to explain.
"What's the name of this gang?" Xiao Chen untied Wang Anliang's calf, which was tied to a chain for barbecue, and threw it at the rhubarb at the door.
He took a bite of the rhubarb in his mouth, shook his big head a few times, and chewed up Wang Anliang's calf bone. The bone residue and blood were swallowed into his stomach in a few times.
He seemed to be still hungry, wagging his tail and staring straight at Wang Anliang's other leg.
"It's called Daxing Chamber of Commerce." The servant trembled and answered hastily.
Xiao Chen slowly turned around and looked at the servant: "I can leave you a whole body."
Then he looked at Du Shaoqin: "This Wang Anliang, bake them all, and then feed them rhubarb."
...
Daxing County is a county seat southeast of Beijing. The county seat is not large and is surrounded by endless flat fields.
This is also the main vegetable production area in Beijing.
The Daxing Chamber of Commerce is just a non-governmental organization formed by some people under the guise of selling vegetables to Beijing.
Before Zhu Gaoxun left Beijing, some of the people he had recruited privately had no place to live, so they settled in Daxing.
On the surface, these people are vegetable vendors selling vegetables, but in fact they are a potential secret force of Zhu Gaoxun.
The Chamber of Commerce is located in a large courtyard in the county town.
The door of the Daxing Chamber of Commerce was closed at the moment. In a house inside, there were several middle-aged people dressed as civilians sitting.
"President, today's operation failed. The horse did not trample Xiao Yu." A man stood in the middle of the hall and said to a man in gray robes sitting in the middle.
This man's name is Zhang Donghe, and he is the leader of the men Zhu Gaoxu left in Daxing.
"If it fails, you can try again. I'm just afraid that if the captain in purple notices this matter and tries to implement it again, I'm afraid there's little chance." Zhang Donghe took a long breath and said slowly.
"Around noon, Wang Anliang, who lives in Li An's house, was also captured by a group of people dressed in Dongchang costumes at the vegetable market." The man in the middle continued.
"What?" Zhang Donghe shouted and stood up, "Wang Anliang was arrested?"
"Yes, President. The news from our people on the street should be correct," the man said again.
Zhang Donghe put his hands behind his back and walked back and forth, but his brows became more and more wrinkled.
"If Wang Anliang confesses us, the Daxing Chamber of Commerce will be in danger. Let me inform the brothers not to return to the Chamber of Commerce in the near future without my order," Zhang Donghe said.
"Yes." The man in the middle of the hall folded his hands and saluted, turned and left.
The Daxing Chamber of Commerce is just a temporary residence. Most of the time, the guild members are scattered outside.
Inform everyone not to come back. Even if Dongchang takes action, most of its strength can still be preserved.
Seeing the man leave the hall, Zhang Donghe looked at the other people present: "Everyone should disperse as well. In the past few days, the Daxing Chamber of Commerce has been temporarily disbanded."
"Disband? Why disband? If you disband, where will the people in the capital have food to eat?" A voice came from outside the door.
A thin young man wearing a soap-colored captain's uniform and Dongchang boots slowly walked into the hall with his hands behind his back.
"Who are you, and why did you break into our Daxing Chamber of Commerce?" Zhang Donghe was shocked, and his hands drooped behind his back and clenched tightly into fists.
Several other people also stood up and looked at each other nervously.
"Me? I am Xiao Chen, the captain of Dongchang, also known as the captain in purple." Xiao Chen had a bright smile on his face, scanning everyone's faces one by one.
"You, why are you here?" Zhang Donghe asked as he slowly approached the small door leading to the back hall.
"It's not just me. I have brought all the available captains in Dongchang. Not to mention this courtyard, the current Daxing County is only accessible but not accessible."
Xiao Chen laughed loudly, making Zhang Donghe's idea of escape instantly come to nothing.
