After the hysterical catharsis, followed by physical and mental exhaustion.
And this exhaustion became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
In a trance, Shopkeeper Wu didn't even remember when he started to confess, but only vaguely remembered that he answered many tricky and weird questions, and he almost had no reservations!
It wasn't until Sun Shaozong reappeared and picked up the confession full of teeny Xiaokai that Shopkeeper Wu woke up from his haunted state and cast a resentful look at him.
But it's just eyes.
The courage to look at death and scold the thief chief has long since been kneaded in the palm of his hand along with that paper confession.
However, Sun Shaozong said that he read the confession over and over three times, and confirmed that most of the links could echo each other. Only then did he turn his attention to Shopkeeper Wu, and said with a half-smile: "Manager Wu, you..."
"grown ups."
At this moment, Yang Licai's voice happened to sound outside the door: "Please take a step to speak."
Sun Shaozong subconsciously stopped the conversation, but he didn't mean to go out. Instead, he raised his voice and commanded: "Manager Wu has now surrendered to the court, if you have anything to say, just say it."
Yang Licai picked up the curtain and came in. First, he glanced at Shopkeeper Wu strangely, then bowed and said, "I am incompetent, so Mr. Xu still refuses to let go."
Still not willing to let go? !
With just these few words, Manager Wu seemed to have been hit by a sap. He seemed to have caught something in the numbness and soreness, but he couldn't grasp the point, and couldn't help but ask in a hoarse voice: "My lady... My wife she…”
Halfway through the conversation, he didn't know what to ask, or he didn't dare to ask any further.
"Treasurer Wu is such a great blessing!"
At this time, he saw Sun Shaozong provoking his big brother, and he sincerely praised: "How many women can there be in the world who do not allow men like this?"
After receiving his compliment, Manager Wu only felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, as if a huge boulder of 1000 jin was pressing on his body, and finally managed to squeeze out a question from his teeth: "You... You mean, my wife didn't... didn't confess? !"
"exactly."
"But... but she's in the cellar... clearly..."
"You said that."
Sun Shaozong spread his hands: "It's the person I ordered to go down and ask. Once you find that the two of you can't keep up, you will secretly make some noises - whoever thinks about it, your husband and wife will have a quarrel because of this."
Damn it!
Damn it!
I actually fell for this traitor!
Shopkeeper Wu was already extremely remorseful in his heart, but he couldn't help but continue to question: "But I clearly saw it in this room..."
"Are you sure you can see clearly?"
Sun Shaozong sneered: "I deliberately asked her to put the oil lamp in front of you just to dazzle your eyes, otherwise, you should at least find that the woman's buttocks are a little drier than Madam Zun."
This time, Manager Wu couldn't even deceive himself. The stuffy air in his chest rushed to Baihui Point, not to mention his red head and bulging face, and even the pupils were covered in blood.
Just listen to him open his mouth "you...you...you" three times, suddenly a mouthful of old blood is about to spurt, and the head is tilted and there is no movement!
Seeing this, Sun Shaozong hurriedly stretched out his hand to test his carotid artery to confirm that he just fainted, and then he was relieved - he took the initiative to reveal the truth, not to make this fellow mad.
"grown ups."
Just after ordering his men to dig some well water to wake up the shopkeeper Wu, Yang Licai asked, "Your methods are really admired by the humble post, but there is one more thing that the humble post can't understand no matter how you think about it. ."
"The wounds on the wrists of their husband and wife stopped without a lot of blood. No matter how frightened they were by the sound of dripping water, it wouldn't be like a serious illness in just two or three hours, right?"
Sun Shaozong replied casually: "Half scared, half bored."
"Boring?"
"That's right."
Sun Shaozong is also not good at giving him popular science, saying that the gas emitted during the decaying process of vegetables will cause hypoxia symptoms in the vegetable cellar.
Therefore, I had to explain as roughly as possible: "The vegetable cellar is already stuffy and tight. Ordinary people will be dizzy and short of breath after staying in it for a long time. Besides, they are already fearful and struggling for a while?"
To put it bluntly, the so-called blood-dropping experiment was just a deliberate pretense to aggravate the fears of the shopkeeper Wu and his wife—being suffocated to death or something, how could I listen to my own blood and die? fear
Yang Licai heard what he didn't understand, and wanted to inquire about it, but the small school who was instructed to fetch water had already rushed back, and he couldn't help but pour half a bucket of water on the head of the shopkeeper Wu.
"Huh... puff..."
Shopkeeper Wu shuddered, then took a breath, and then sprayed some water out.
The dazed eyes rolled around on everyone's faces, and the scattered focus gradually settled on Sun Shaozong's face, emitting negative emotions such as regret, resentment, and fear.
Seeing that he was in the mood again, Sun Shaozong suddenly sighed and said helplessly: "Manager Wu, if you think I'm telling the truth just to humiliate you, then it's really a waste of this officer's hard work. "
Painful
Pooh!
If it weren't for the help of the iron chain and the ball in his mouth, the shopkeeper Wu would definitely pounce on him and bite him a few times to vent his hatred!
Sun Shaozong didn't point out that he could believe it, and shook the confession in his hand again, and continued: "Now you have no worries about your life, but if Mrs. Zun continues to be stubborn, you will lose your life in vain - then you two will die in vain. The husband and wife, don't they want to be separated forever?"
"Why don't you go to Haosheng to persuade Mrs. Zun, and let her serve the court with you. This official will consider you guilty and meritorious, how?"
"It's not just Mrs. Zun, if you and your wife can make some more contributions in the process of arresting Bai Lian for betraying the party, not only can the death penalty be avoided, but there is still a promising future for the seventh or eighth rank."
"At that time, the riches and honors will be inexhaustible, and you will be able to call yourself a master or an adult in front of people. Isn't it a hundred times stronger than you are now hiding your head and showing your tail?"
Having said that, seeing that the shopkeeper Wu has become a little loose, Sun Shaozong hastily resorted to the last killer.
Seeing him patted the Mo Jiao Tun Yun robe of the small school next to him, he said earnestly: "If you don't have this official uniform to protect you, even if this official firmly believes that your heart is for the imperial court, the brothers below may not have all of them. This knowledge."
"If there is someone who doesn't open his eyes and is rude to Manager Wu or Mrs. Zun, wouldn't he live up to your righteous deed of abandoning the dark and turning to the light today?"
"I also ask shopkeeper Wu to think twice."
After all this coercion was lured, Sun Shaozong didn't stop there, and ordered the two dragon guards to help Manager Wu remove the shackles, and then led Yang Licai away.
And this walk, half a step without stopping to the front yard stables.
Seeing that Sun Shaozong turned on his mount, Yang Licai also hurried to untie the reins, but Sun Shaozong glanced back at him, but instructed: "You stay here."
When Yang Licai heard this, he thought he wanted to take credit alone. Although he was slandering in his heart, he had to obey his orders obediently.
Sun Shaozong turned his horse's head around, and then ordered: "Call the people who arrested Mr. and Mrs. Wu in the afternoon, and remember to let them bring their weapons."
After a pause, remembering that there were still a few women in it, he hurriedly added: "Forget those who are pretending to be maids."
When Yang Licai heard this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and asked cautiously, "Sir, aren't you going to report to Lord Zhenfu?"
"Of course not."
"But Mr. Zhenfu didn't have an explanation, so let's pass it on at any time?!"
Yang Licai was immediately anxious. Disobeying orders and disobeying orders is a taboo in the army, and in a secret agency such as Longjing Guard, it is even more sinful!
As soon as Sun Shaozong bent down, he took off the large gold ring knife from the victory hook, and quickly pulled a few knives on the horse. Seeing that the old man who had not seen each other for a long time did not feel strange in his hands, he hung up again with satisfaction. go back.
After trying the knife, he turned around and said to Yang Licai: "Youdao is going to be unhappy with the life of a foreign monarch. Besides, you should also know that the last action was destroyed by a traitor. How can you repeat the same mistakes now?"
"If the repressive envoy is to blame, this official will bear it all! And if everything goes well with this official's departure, it will definitely be your credit!"
Speaking of this, his face suddenly sank, and he said: "But if someone here dares to leave without permission after I leave, I will have to invite all of you to go to the water prison for a walk!"
Yang Licai saw that Sun Shaozong said that he was so resolute, and promised that the benefits would be shared, and the blame would be left alone, so he naturally did not dare to persuade him.
As if busy flying, he summoned the plainclothes spies—in fact, after those women were excluded, there were only six people in total.
When the six men stepped forward to give salute, Sun Shaozong suddenly took the reins and stood up the man on the horse.
"It's okay, it's all with seeds."
Seeing that among the six people, none of them showed fear, Sun Shaozong nodded with satisfaction, and said, "I called you all in the middle of the night, not for anything else, but to take you to a fight for wealth! "
"This official has now found out that there are six people from the White Lotus Sect in the capital, Shan Xiangzhu, the leader in charge of leading the team, and the deputy leader who is under one person and more than ten thousand people!"
"As long as you take down this group of lawless rebels, I guarantee that all of you will be promoted!"
In fact, before learning that the leader of the team was the vice sect leader of the White Lotus Sect, Sun Shaozong never thought of acting his own way.
But when he heard that it was such a big fish, Sun Shaozong was moved.
Since Sun Shaozong took the lead in the Prince's case, Lu Hui, the envoy of the pacifier, was clearly complimenting him, but secretly he showed some caution and rejection, and he would live up to his previous efforts to win over him.
And Sun Shaozong thought about it these days, and probably understood his mind.
Lu Hui looked at the sturdy and sturdy, but in fact, he was already over fifty years old, and the errand of the Beizhen Fusi Zhenfu would last seven or eight years at most, and I was afraid that it would be time for him.
Therefore, at first, when he faced Sun Shaozong, he was quite caring for his elders, and even wanted to train Sun Shaozong as his successor.
But the problem is that Sun Shaozong's growth rate has far exceeded his expectations!
After only half a year of work, the accumulated merit has risen to the fourth rank - this is still a lot of credit, and the result is no reward.
You know, the Zhenfu envoy is only a genuine fourth-grade!
If this momentum continues, I am afraid that within three or two years, Sun Shaozong will threaten Lu Hui's throne.
That's why he changed his strategy recently, from being close to being vigilant, or even suppressing - otherwise, Sun Shaozong should be in charge of the first task of hunting the White Lotus Sect.
In view of this, how could Sun Shaozong be willing to give up this god-given credit
As for disobedience...
Not to mention that Sun Shaozong now has the support of the prince, the real helm of the Beizhen Fu Company, Eunuch Dai, is also very fond of him.
At that time, as long as he has made a contribution, how can Lu Hui dare to take him
Besides, Sun Shaozong's main functions and powers are still within the civil service system. If his face is completely torn, the big deal will be scattered in the future, and he will no longer be involved in the errands of the Beizhen Fusi.
Less gossip.
However, he said that the leader of the six people was only a seven-rank general banner. If he could make such a great contribution to the sky, what would it be to recommend a test hundred households from the sixth-rank
I can't say that I can directly upgrade to two levels, and I don't know!
Therefore, after hearing Sun Shaozong's promise, the six talents were all excited, and they all shouted at the moment, expressing their willingness to die for the thousand households.
But I heard Sun Shaozong say again: "I naturally hope that everyone can come back alive to get promoted and make a fortune - but to avoid leaking rumors, there are only seven of you and me tonight, but there are more than twenty Bailian Yu Party, and most of them are Green Forest experts. If you don’t want to take risks with your official, it’s still too late to quit now.”
As soon as I heard that there are more than 20 good players on the opposite side, but there are only seven people on my side, the dragon guards who have always been used to bullying the less, I feel a little uneasy.
It's just that I was just clamoring for 'effective death', who has the face to back down at this time
During the silence, one of the small flags suddenly raised his head and said loudly: "I am willing to go through fire and water with the adults!"
This is someone who picks up the head, whether willingly or unwillingly, and they are busy and respectfully said: "I am willing to go through fire and water with the adults!"
"Good, good, good!"
Sun Shaozong shouted hello three times in a row, and laughed again: "It's just that it's going through fire and water, but it's not enough. No matter how powerful the thieves of the White Lotus Sect are, can they still be worth the officers who have firearms and strong bows and crossbows? ?"
"Don't forget, when I was in Jinmen Mansion, I killed more than 100 rebels alone - now you are waiting to help, and there are only twenty thieves, what's the big deal?!"
When everyone heard this, their confidence suddenly increased.
"Get on the horse!"
Following Sun Shaozong's order, the six quickly searched for their mounts.
Seeing that Xiaoqi was grabbing his head again, Sun Shaozong couldn't help but feel a little cherished for his talents, so he specifically asked that Xiaoqi's name.
The little flag bowed his hands on the horse, and said boldly: "Wang Zhen of the humble post is from Yuzhou, Hebei. If the humble post dies today, please send the corpse of the humble post back to his hometown and bury it with his parents."
I go!
Weizhou Wang Zhen? !
Sun Shaozong was really taken aback by this name, and he almost blurted out a question: Aren't you a eunuch? How did you get into the dragon guard? !
Thanks to book friend '1 Liu Zijian 1' for the reward.
