In the prison of the county government office, it was dark and damp, and the cold air eroded the bones. You Qing was bound by Wu Hua Da and tied to the torture rack. The pale cheeks were illuminated faintly red by the beeping firelight. shake.
The county magistrate looked at the terrifying blood scar on his face with satisfaction. Seeing that he had not woken up for a long time, he turned to wink at the person behind him. Immediately, the prison guard brought two large buckets of water and lifted it up. A bucket was slammed into You Qing's face.
You Qing's whole body was instantly soaked, the blood from the wound was diluted a little, and a few strands of jet-black hair stuck to the side of the bleeding face, clearly black and white.
Agitated by the coldness from head to toe, You Qing shivered, and You Qing frowned in pain, her eyelashes stained with water droplets moved slightly, slowly opened her eyes, her drowsy vision turned, and gradually regained her clarity. When his eyes fell on the county magistrate's face, he suddenly became cold.
The county magistrate walked over with a smile: "Young Master You, You Young Master, seeing you just now with such a stern look, what's the point of this official taking you, I didn't expect you to faint so quickly, it turned out to be just that Some vain and useless arrogance, tsk tsk!"
There was hatred in You Qing's eyes, and he was anxious because he was worried about Bai Li. Knowing that this dog official was only interested in profit, he would definitely not let Bai Li go easily, so he was even more reluctant to be soft on him, and just looked at him coldly.
The county magistrate smiled smugly for a while, raised his hand to rub some blood on the wound on his face and sent it to his eyes, sighing, "My stubborn daughter is not a superficial person, ruining one. A face is not enough!"
After speaking, he wiped his face again: "But this face, a scar is not enough, I need more..." Before the words were finished, the person suddenly stopped.
You Qing looked at him coldly, seeing him staring at her left cheek for a long time, then suddenly gasped, her expression changed greatly, and she frowned inexplicably.
The magistrate's narrow eyes suddenly widened, and he waved his hand behind him with a solemn expression, and immediately someone stepped forward.
"Go! Clean his face!"
The man replied "yes", bent down and scooped a ladle of water from the bucket and poured it on You Qing's face.
You Qing was stimulated by the sudden cold water and quickly closed his eyes, and when he opened it again, a ladle of water poured down his face, before he had time to react, the touch of high-quality but impatient clothing came from his face.
It turned out that the county magistrate couldn't wait to raise his hand and wipe his face with his sleeve.
"This, this..." The county magistrate dropped half a step with a stern look on his face, shaking his fingers and pointing at his smooth and clean face, with a bit of obvious fear in his voice, "What's going on?!"
You Qing didn't know why they all stared at him with a ghostly look, and was very surprised, but he didn't show it on his face, just continued to stare at them coldly.
Seeing his indifferent appearance, the county magistrate was even more horrified: "This, this... What is wrong with this? Master! Master!"
The master was also standing beside him in astonishment. Hearing the sound, he hurried forward two steps: "Sir, the little one is also... I don't know..."
.
The county magistrate took a deep breath and forced a calm look at You Qing, and said sharply, "What's wrong with your face?!"
You Qing sneered: "Thanks to your dog official, why did you ask me instead?"
The county magistrate made up his mind, flung his sleeves and walked out of the prison, and called out the yamen who had executed the execution with a dagger. He said with a dark face and lowered his voice angrily: "You said! What's going on!"
The yamen was full of arrogance when he executed the execution earlier, but at this time he shrank back when the county magistrate shouted, and said tremblingly: "I don't know! The little one has used a lot of strength!"
The county magistrate looked at him suspiciously: "Really?"
"It's absolutely true! It's really hard to cut a bone, and the order of the adults has never been violated, and the world can learn from it!"
The county magistrate was very impatient with his words of loyalty, and waved his hand: "Then what do you think is going on now? Did you fall for the evil?"
"This..." The man suddenly grimaced, "How about, try again with the little ones?"
The county magistrate squinted and wiped his beard for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay, let's try again, this official is watching, if I find out that you are hiding something tricky, I will not forgive you!"
"Yes, yes, the little one must try his best!"
You Qing felt a little weird under the strange gazes of the group of people, and when he saw the magistrate coming in again, he glanced at him indifferently. Feel weird.
The executioner did not wait for the magistrate to speak this time, so he held the dagger in front of him fiercely. When the magistrate came closer, his hands tightened, he turned his face, and stabbed the tip of the dagger sharply. into the skin of his right cheek.
You Qing couldn't break free, the pain caused the upper and lower rows of teeth to vibrate violently, panting heavily but he just kept silent, thinking that if he went to the underworld, he would definitely not be in a hurry to reincarnate, and he would definitely put this dog in the office. The life was taken first.
As if it was deliberately to increase his pain, the speed of the dagger's slide was very slow, and the flesh was cut half an inch and a half, and even the county magistrate's heart skipped a beat.
You Qing was so in pain that big beads of sweat rolled down, biting a thick bloody smell from his mouth, but he still didn't say a word, until the dagger left, the pain continued, and he almost bit his teeth.
The county magistrate squinted for a while, raised his hand and pressed it on his wound. Seeing that he was in pain, he nodded with satisfaction and said lazily, "The other side."
"Yes!"
The cold touch of the dagger pressed against the left cheek, and another wave of severe pain rolled over the flesh, causing You Qing's body to tremble with pain, and finally couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.
Everyone present had never imagined that a weak scholar could endure to such an extent, and they were dumbfounded.
Although the county magistrate was sarcastic, he was actually shocked in his heart. Coupled with the strange phenomenon he had seen before, he couldn't help but deepen his fear. He leaned over and squinted to take a closer look. He saw that the wound was still there, slightly loosened tone.
You Qing endured the pain and looked at him with a look of disdain and a sneer: "You have the guts to abuse private affairs, but you don't have the guts to slander people's lives, you dog official is not completely unconscious!"
The magistrate was indeed timid as a mouse, and he was stabbed in the sore spot all of a sudden, and he became angry and said with a gloomy face: "Hmph! This official disdains taking your life! Do you think this is the end? Come on!"
"exist!"
"Abolish his right hand, so that he can't lift a pen or write in this life!"
You Qing's heart trembled as he watched the prison guard walk over to pull out the red-burning iron pincers from the brazier, and walked towards him step by step, a pair of clear eyes flashed past in his mind, gritted his teeth, took a deep breath and closed it in despair. eyes.
When Bai Li was in deep sleep, seeing a nightmare, his tightly closed eyes trembled in confusion several times, then he suddenly stood up and sat on the bed sweating profusely, gasping for breath. The feeling of suffocation in his chest lingered, and he was recalling what he had dreamed about. At that time, I suddenly noticed something strange, and hurriedly opened my eyes and looked to the side.
It was almost dusk, and the light in the room was relatively dim. Two middle-aged men who had never seen before appeared in front of the bed at some point. Half of the hemp ropes in their hands were hanging on the ground, and they were looking straight at him.
Bai Li's heart skipped a beat. He didn't know what dream he had, and he didn't even notice that someone was approaching. He couldn't help looking at them vigilantly: "Who are you? Why are you here?"
Those two people were the officers sent by the county magistrate to arrest the person. They originally wanted to tie the person up while he was sleeping, but when they got closer, they were immediately stunned. Come on, look at his ill appearance again, and don't pay much attention to him.
One of them laughed twice: "Such a beautiful face is actually a book boy for that poor scholar, God is really blind."
Bai Li was stunned for a while when he heard this, and then realized that You Qing had not come back yet. He suddenly became worried, and looked down at the rope in their hands. Get out of bed.
The two of them looked at each other and signaled to each other. Suddenly, their hands and feet moved, and they threw off the rope to wrap around him. They moved quickly and circled several times in a row. Finally, they pulled back and tied him firmly.
This action was only for a moment, Bai Li could see clearly but did not move, letting them tie him up.
The two of them didn't expect to get their hands so easily, and they were overjoyed. One of them quickly took off the sack behind his waist and covered him.
Bai Li didn't know what they were going to do, just because he was worried about You Qing, he didn't want to waste time talking to them. Seeing that he didn't struggle with the sack under the hood, he quickly felt that he was being carried by someone and cast a spell. Looking through the sack, I saw them carrying themselves out of the house and throwing them into a carriage.
The carriage slowly moved forward, Bai Li closed his eyes and held his breath, but after a moment, the fog in his mind dissipated, and You Qing's figure gradually appeared. Bound, calmed down, opened the curtain and shouted to the two who were driving in front: "Two big brothers."
The two were wondering if the book boy was a fool, why he was so easily tied up, and when they heard the voice behind them, they thought he was struggling in the sack, so they glanced back at will. His face was so shocked that he was distraught.
Although the facial features on this face are impeccably exquisite, after all, they are too close and completely unexpected, and anyone will be shocked.
Bai Li smiled at them, and his dark eyes gradually turned light. The two of them looked at him dumbfounded, as his pupils became lighter and lighter, his mind gradually became dizzy, and his eyes lost focus. Until the end, Bai Li's pupils turned silvery white, and the two of them had no idea who they were or where they were.
Bai Li looked at one of them expressionlessly: "Where are you taking me?"
The man's eyes were completely blank, and he said indifferently, "The county government."
Bai Li frowned: "What are you taking me to the county office for?"
"Give it to the prefect to be a male pet."
Bai Li doesn't know what a male pet is, and it sounds like he knows it's not a good thing, but it's not what he wants to know the most right now, so he doesn't ask any more. With the thought of rushing past, he turned his head and asked another person, "Why is Young Master You in the prison?"
"Ordered by your lord."
"why?"
"Miss takes a fancy to him, and the adults do not allow it."
