That night, Qingxuan suddenly asked to see Su Changfeng and told Su Changfeng the story of Su Tan and Yue Xiangsi that he heard from Xiao Miaoqing today.
Su Changfeng couldn't help being shocked after hearing this. It turned out that his adoptive father actually had such a past. It turned out that the Acacia Gate where he grew up was founded by his adoptive father in memory of his lover!
I wonder if Acacia is still alive this month? Is her adoptive father's poisoning related to her? However, according to all the evidence found so far, the adoptive father is in love with a very young girl this time, and it is definitely not Yue Xiangsi who is about the same age as the adoptive father.
But who is this extremely young girl? Is it related to the moon phase
Su Changfeng put her hands on her forehead as if thinking deeply. Qingxuan felt that she had said everything she knew, so she was about to leave. However, Su Changfeng suddenly pointed to the chair below him and motioned for Qingxuan to sit down for a while. I had to sit down patiently.
Su Changfeng's cold voice sounded in her ears: "Thank you, I almost thought it was the poison given by my adoptive mother. It was your words that made me decide to continue investigating."
In my mind, this was the first time Su Changfeng formally thanked her. She didn't know what to say at the moment, so she could only say politely: "Master, you are exaggerating! I am just telling everything I know." That’s all, nothing important was done!”
Su Changfeng's cold voice sounded again: "I was born in a noble family, but I have been lonely since I was a child. What I don't believe in most in my life is the relationship between people. I think nothing in this world is eternal, everything, everything People change, so I am always careful with everyone around me, even if I sleep, I will keep a dagger next to me!"
At this point, Su Changfeng suddenly raised his head and looked at Qingxuan, his eyes full of complicated emotions.
Only then did Qingxuan realize that he had drank today. He had just been anxious to report to him about Yue Xiangsi, but he was far away and did not notice that his face was pale, which was obviously caused by excessive drinking.
Qingxuan's heart suddenly became angry. He really said, "Taking medicine without taboos has ruined the doctor's hand." He tried his best to treat him, but he drank a lot here, and he became a little angry without realizing it.
"Why do you drink so much and don't want to treat your illness? Do you want your body? I study medical books all day long and try my best to treat your illness, but you don't care about your body so much!"
"I'm sorry, I was wrong!" Su Changfeng said in a low voice while looking at Qingxuan's angry face, his eyes full of indescribable emotions.
Qingxuan was shocked now. What happened to Su Changfeng? This was not like the usually decisive and decisive Xiangsi Sect Master. Instead, he looked like a child who had done something wrong. In addition, he had just interacted with Qingxuan couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for him because of her heartfelt words.
"Since you know that you are wrong, then you should stop drinking so much in the future. You should know your own body best. Now the whole Xiangsi family and your adoptive father's affairs have you to worry about. How can you cope without a good body?"
Qingxuan spoke to him with concern.
"I know, I won't do it again!"
Su Changfeng's voice was still low, and seemed to be a little aggrieved.
"Then you have a good rest. I'll have someone cook you a bowl of hangover soup to soothe your hangover." Qingxuan said.
"I'm not drunk, I'm very sober. It's just that I'm in so much pain because I'm so sober!" Su Changfeng said lightly.
"Then I'll resign first!"
Qingxuan stood up and prepared to leave.
Silence, silence, just when Qingxuan thought Su Changfeng would not answer, he suddenly spoke and prayed: "Can you not leave?"
"What?"
Qingxuan was a little angry when he heard this, thinking, you don't let me leave in the middle of the night, do I still want to stay in your dormitory and watch you sleep? Why is this man so drunk
"Forget it, let's go!"
Su Changfeng let out a long sigh, and then said coldly. When he raised his head again, his eyes had become clear.
The next day, Su Changfeng suddenly ordered Su Chang and Yun Shuang to investigate all the young girls who had been admitted to the Xiangsi Sect in the past year. Anyone who had come into contact with Su Tan would be detained first and interrogated by Su Changfeng himself.
For a moment, the Xiangsi Gate was in chaos and people were in panic. Yun Shuang and Su Chang interrogated each of them one by one. Anyone who was suspicious or who had even spoken to Su Tan was arrested. So far, more than 30 girls have been arrested. , most of them are newly recruited disciples, killers, maids, servants, etc. in recent years, including Xiaochun.
When Xiaochun was taken away, Qingxuan was still seeing Xiao Miaoqing at Wanzhu Peak. When she learned the news and hurried back to Tingtao Pavilion, Xiaochun had already been imprisoned with more than thirty other girls in the door. Acacia Gate torture chamber.
Mei Lan, who has been serving at Xiangsimen for nearly ten years, told Qingxuan that ordinary people could not get out of Xiangsimen's torture chamber. Qingxuan was worried about Xiaochun's safety, so he had to rush to Xiangsi Pavilion to see Su Changfeng again.
Acacia Gate, torture chamber
The torture chamber of Xiangsimen is located ten meters underground of Xiangsimen. Compared with the splendor and grandeur of the main hall of Xiangsimen, this place is simply a hell on earth. Not only is the corridor narrow and long, the wind is blowing, but there is a heavy humidity everywhere. The smell of blood.
There are three corridors to go from the main entrance to the cell. Each corridor is about 100 meters long. Each corridor is guarded by at least four people in each shift. After passing through these dark and long corridors, we reach the core of the torture chamber.
As soon as he entered, Su Changfeng couldn't help but frown. Not only were there echoing screams and cries and the sound of horse whips, but there was also a thick smell in the air. There were various instruments of torture all around. Spiked collars, branding irons, riding whips, nail boards, blunt knives of various sizes, bamboo sticks, oil pans, gallows, etc. are all available.
Walking further, I suddenly saw a person, no longer distinguishing between male and female. A long pillar with spikes was pierced from the lower body to the mouth, hanging in the air. It seemed that he had been hung for a long time, and the entire skin of the person had turned into The color was green, and strangely there was no trace of blood on the ground. But judging from the man's occasional painful howls and the constant trembling of his body, he was not dead yet. Su Changfeng couldn't help but feel chills when he looked at it.
Then he asked Lei Ming, the prison steward: "What's going on?"
Lei Ming, the supervisor of the execution room, has been very busy these days. At this moment, Su Changfeng came to the execution room in person. He was surprised and happy. What was surprising was that he heard that the new sect leader Su Changfeng was moody. He was afraid that he might offend by accident. He, misfortune fell from the sky, and he was happy that a person like him who had been hiding in the darkness could now have a chance to meet the sect leader, and maybe he could be promoted and transferred to a better place.
Under such complicated emotions, he could not help but feel uneasy. Now that he heard Su Changfeng ask him in person, he became even more frightened and said: "Master Bing, this is a new instrument of torture created by my subordinates, called stabbing."
"I'm asking you, what did this person commit?" Su Changfeng felt unhappy when he saw that he had raised eyebrows and a sinister look on his face, and now he was panicking when he replied, so his tone was a bit harsh.
"Bing, Master Bing, this person colluded with the outer sect for a small profit and revealed the news of the assassination of our Xiangsi Sect in advance, causing the Xiangsi Sect to directly lose three mid-level killers."
Lei Ming replied quickly, with cold sweat already breaking out on his forehead.
"You deserve it! Your torture device is quite interesting, tell me what's going on?" Su Changfeng glanced at the traitor's painful expression and asked with interest.
Lei Ming saw that Su Changfeng's tone was gentle and he was interested in his newly created torture device, so he said, "Master Bing, this torture device is to fix a sharpened wooden stake on the ground, and sit the victim on the top. Insert the long rod from the victim's anus and out of his mouth. Usually the rod will only pass through the victim's chest, so its tip will be under the chin to prevent the victim from continuing to slide down. .”
Lei Ming finished speaking in one breath. Seeing that Su Changfeng seemed to be still staring at the stakes on the ground, he cleared his throat and continued: "Usually the stakes are erected on the ground, and then the person who is impaled on the stakes stays like this. While hanging in the air, the stakes can block the victim's wounds and prevent blood from flowing out. Therefore, the victim will only be stabbed with the wooden stick in extreme pain, and the average person can live for three days in this state. Now the traitor is alive. It's been one day, and there are still two days before he will slowly die."
After Lei Ming finished speaking, he suddenly saw that the desperate howl of the traitor hanging on the wooden pile suddenly became louder, his mouth was babbling non-stop, and his body was shaking significantly. He was afraid that he would be like this again after hearing it. After two days of torture, he must have collapsed!
When Su Changfeng saw it, he not only didn't care, but also said coldly to the man with a somewhat disdainful tone: "I had known this, why did I do it in the first place!"
Then he turned around and said to Lei Ming: "You did a good job, not so bloody."
Lei Ming was overjoyed when he heard this, and even led Lu's footsteps a little more steadily.
After walking further in for about a cup of tea, Su Changfeng endured various unpleasant smells and noisy cries for help, and finally arrived at the place where a group of girls were imprisoned.
They were all imprisoned in a larger cell at this time. They were originally a group of beautiful young girls. After being locked up here for a day, their faces became ashen, their eyes were swollen, and their hair was messy. , now they are all kneeling on the ground shivering, not even daring to breathe out, there is still half a charm.
Su Changfeng was immediately disappointed, but he still refused to give up and said: "Bring them forward one by one, and I will interrogate them personally."
Thunder gave the order and he rudely pulled out a girl. The girl was already frightened and was holding on to the cell door. She murmured in her mouth, with only fear in her eyes. When Su Changfeng saw this, he sighed and lowered his head. He said to the woman in a gentle tone: "Don't be afraid, I will only ask you a few questions and I will let you go after that."
The girl had never seen Su Changfeng before, and she had been through hell today. Her emotions were ups and downs too much. At this moment, she suddenly saw such a handsome man speaking to her so gently, seemingly out of the endless darkness. Suddenly, I was in a bright and pure land. My heart was refreshed, my body was soft, my vision went dark, and I fainted.
Su Changfeng, Lei Ming and all the guards were speechless. Then it was Lei Ming who suggested pouring water to wake her up.
Su Changfeng sneered, shook his head, and said to Lei Ming: "Forget it, it can't be her!"
There was already a hint of contempt in his tone, thinking that his adoptive father would never be interested in such a thing.
After scanning and carefully questioning the other girls in the cell one by one, he finally left only five girls, all of whom were handed over to Yun Shuang and Su Chang for interrogation!
