night.
The wind is cold.
The biting cold wind blew from time to time, making a whistling sound.
Crunch...
The window that was not closed was shaking.
"This damn weather!"
Zhu Ziliang was awakened and got up cursing.
Boom…
A loud thunderclap sounded in the air.
The whole world suddenly became bright.
"Who, who is there! Speak up, or I'll call for help!"
The brightness at that moment revealed a figure in front of the window.
The figure appeared suddenly, and Zhu Ziliang was so scared that he kept backing away.
Snap...
Flint lit a candle on the table.
The person who lit the candle appeared completely in front of Zhu Ziliang.
"Mingzhi, it's you!"
When he saw that person, Zhu Ziliang finally felt relieved.
It's better to be a human than a ghost.
"Mingzhi, is there something wrong with you? If you have something to say, you can ask the servants to inform me. Why do you have to come to me in person in the middle of the night?"
Zhu Ziliang walked to the table and said with lingering fear.
He was really scared just now. Most people would be scared if someone suddenly appeared in the room in the middle of the night.
"Uncle, I want to ask you something."
Zhu Mingzhi was wearing a long, somewhat worn-out suit, with his hair casually pinned up with a wooden hairpin.
Perhaps because he has been traveling for many years, his young face is full of perseverance and vicissitudes of life.
“I know what you want to ask, but I’ve already said it before, the one who poisoned your father was Cui Xiaofeng, the Nine-Line Maple Fragrance.
Your mother ran away on her own and we don't know where she is!
Even if you ask me now, I would still say the same thing. "
Upon hearing Zhu Mingzhi's words, Zhu Ziliang's face quickly darkened and he said in a deep voice.
Zhu Mingzhi was silent for a moment.
"Uncle, do you know what I have learned in the past few years?"
After a while, he spoke.
But this statement had nothing to do with his previous question.
Although Zhu Ziliang was puzzled as to why Zhu Mingzhi suddenly mentioned this, he still said:
“Didn’t you say when you came back that you had been following a caravan in the Southern Territory for the past few years
Why? Isn't it? "
"I did follow the caravan, but I spent most of my time in the capture camp!"
Zhu Mingzhi raised his head and looked at Zhu Ziliang.
"Catch the door?" Zhu Ziliang frowned and was about to speak when he saw Zhu Mingzhi's eyes which looked very dark under the candlelight.
Zhu Ziliang had seen this kind of look before.
That was the look in the eyes of those horse bandits when he was young and was being chased by them in the wilderness.
That was the look of a hunter looking at his prey.
Frightened by this look, he couldn't help but stop moving forward and even took a few steps back.
"You should have heard of us, the police. We are divided into two types of people, one who hunts down criminals and arrests them, and the other who punishes and tortures the evil.
Unfortunately, what I learned was the torture to punish evil.
Among them, I have done in-depth research on the issue of torture.
Uncle, tell me, how many torture instruments can you withstand?"
A cruel smile suddenly appeared on Zhu Mingzhi's face.
That smile was mad and contained a hint of murderous intent.
"Mingzhi, please don't mess around. I'm your second uncle. If you touch me, you're being unfilial!"
Although Zhu Ziliang has a high seniority in the Zhu family, he is just an ordinary person who has not even reached the ninth rank.
Usually at home, I just do the job of housekeeper.
Seeing Zhu Mingzhi's expression at this moment, he suddenly became a little panicked.
"Hehe... If you thought I was a member of the Zhu family, you wouldn't have poisoned my father to death.
What moral sentiments do I need from people like you?"
Zhu Mingzhi's voice was cold and he began to move forward.
“I’ll give you another chance, where is my mother
If you don't tell me, then I'll have to let you try the ten methods of questioning my conscience that I learned from the police!
You know what? I'm currently studying the skinning part of the Ten Punishments.
Now, I can use this knife to peel off your skin in one piece. During this time, you will not die, but will only feel endless pain!"
Zhu Mingzhi's expression became more and more crazy, and a thin knife appeared in his hand.
Zhu Mingzhi's words were like the language of a devil, and coupled with his crazy expression, Zhu Ziliang only felt a bone-chilling chill running down his forehead.
Zhu Ziliang had heard of the Ten Punishments of the Police.
The Bu Clan is a sect that is extremely famous in the martial arts world.
This is a sect that some people hate and some people like.
The people who are hated are basically the scums who have committed serious crimes.
Those who like it are the relatives of the victims who once hired the police to hunt down the murderer.
The Ten Punishments for Questioning the Conscience were punishments invented by the police to torture those who committed the most heinous crimes!
According to legend, no one can survive the Ten Punishments of Conscience.
"Mingzhi, you can't do this. If you do anything wrong, I will yell, I will yell!"
Zhu Ziliang's expression became more and more frightened.
Because he had no way out, he had retreated to the wall.
Zhu Mingzhi acted as if he didn't hear his words. He slowly reached out and grabbed Zhu Ziliang's neck.
When pinched, Zhu Ziliang couldn't help but open his mouth wide.
Zhu Mingzhi took out a cloth from somewhere and stuffed it directly into his mouth.
Then, like a magic trick, he took out a rope from his arms and tied up Zhu Ziliang.
"I'm about to start. If you can't stand it and want to talk, just nod."
Zhu Mingzhi licked his lips, wiped the knife on Zhu Ziliang's body, and spoke softly.
Then, ignoring Zhu Ziliang's frightened expression, he pointed the knife at his palm and slowly stabbed it.
It looked like he was going to start with his arms.
"Woo woo woo..."
The moment the knife stabbed down, Zhu Ziliang felt a hint of chill.
At this moment, there was no need to hide anything. He kept nodding his head with tears on his face.
His meaning was very clear, he admitted it.
Seeing this, Zhu Mingzhi stopped using the knife that had just pierced the skin a little, and reached out to take the cloth from Zhu Ziliang's mouth.
"Ahem..."
As soon as the towel was removed, Zhu Ziliang started coughing violently.
"explain!"
Zhu Mingzhi said in a cold voice.
"I'll tell you, your mother was given to Elder Huang Yao of the Sand Sea Sect. She should still be alive. She should be in the Sand Sea Sect now. You can go find her."
Hearing this, Zhu Ziliang said hurriedly in panic.
"What about my father? Did you poison him to death as well?"
When Zhu Mingzhi heard this, his eyes flashed, and then he asked again.
"Yes, yes, it was all done by my eldest brother. He wanted to be the head of the family, but your father's martial arts were better than his, so he had no choice but to poison you!
If you want revenge, go find my elder brother. I didn't do anything. It's none of my business."
Zhu Ziliang kept talking about the past and begging for mercy.
"Heh... Considering your character, you actually said you had no involvement. No one would believe you!"
Zhu Mingzhi sneered and cut Zhu Liang's neck with a knife, and blood began to ooze out.
"Ahem...you..."
Before he could finish his words, Zhu Ziliang died.
"From the moment you killed my father and gave my mother to others to seek your welfare, we are no longer a family, we are enemies!"
Zhu Mingzhi looked at the corpse on the ground and slowly stood up.
