The courtyard where Xu Zongwen rented was already surrounded by people from three floors inside and three outside. Thanks to the help of the curfew in Linzi City, no one knew that there was such a big movement outside, and everyone who heard the movement thought it was

When the government officials are catching people loitering and making trouble on the street, how can they dare to open the door and join in the fun?

In a small dark room with the wall removed in the west of the courtyard, Xu Zongwen asked someone to loosen the sack...

After a long time, a tall, slender man with the rough air of a martial artist and dressed in a ragged black shirt slowly raised his head.

What faced him was a thin man with his head tilted and bulging cheeks. This man was tied to a thick wooden stake. His upper body was covered with bloodstains in a plain-colored singlet, and his knees were bent and deformed.

, it was obvious that he had been tortured with a cane, and there was not a single piece of good flesh on his body!

There is no doubt that the tied man is the Qin envoy, but at this time the Qin envoy fainted because he could not bear the punishment, and his spirit was exhausted and he lost consciousness.

The strong man in charge of the interrogation was Xu Zongwen's personal army.

Zhang San took out the leather whip that had just been dipped in hot oil from his hand. He raised his right foot and tilted his head to find the right direction. He swung the whip out with all his strength, and only heard a "pop-" sound and hit the envoy Qin impartially.

On the thin shoulders, soon, under the candlelight high on the stone wall of the small black room, a blood-red whip mark gradually became clear from the right shoulder to the left chest through the wet single clothes!

"Ah~" was followed by a harsh cry, and Qin Shi woke up in pain.

"I advise you to speak up as soon as possible, so as not to suffer physical pain! You are a civil servant with no strength, and you can't lift your hands or shoulders. Why should you suffer such torture in vain? I advise you not to take any chances.

What tricks are you playing? Just four words, tell the truth and nothing will happen to you."

Zhang San only whipped the whip once and then stopped. He raised his eyes and looked at the Qin envoy who was breathing weakly in front of him. Xu Zongwen opened his thin and pouty lips and persuaded him kindly.

The Qin envoy weakly asked: "Who are you? This is Qingzhou. You dare to openly break into the post and arrest the imperial officials. This is a serious crime of genocide!"

"Who we are is not something you can ask."

The thin envoy of Qin received a heavy whip, and he tried his best to open his hazy eyes, but his eyelids were still drooped, and he replied in a low voice: "... I have said it several times, I am not an envoy of Qin.

...The villain is just a small official from Chang'an, and what the villain said is absolutely true!"

"That's enough! I don't want to spend any more time with you. If I give you another moment to burn incense, you can think about how to take the initiative to explain yourself."

Xu Zongwen was a little impatient. He felt that he wasted a whole night on the Qin envoy. He also listened to his inconsistent remarks and kept shirk the blame on himself as an official on a business trip. Xu Zongwen couldn't help but feel angry.

Zhang San on the side understood, curled his whip with both hands, dipped some hot oil in it, and walked towards the envoy of Qin...

"Ah - ah, please forgive me, sir!"

The continuous whipping lasted for a quarter of an hour, until Zhang San's hands became numb before he stopped!

The leather whip was about one foot and two inches long and about the thickness of an oxtail. It was dipped in hot tung oil and then soaked in the prepared chili water. Zhang San was already powerful, but Qin Shi was weak and only wore a hood.

I got a torn piece of clothing, and the skin and flesh can be ripped out with just a whip.

Hot oil is applied to the affected area, and the chili pepper water invades the skin, just like thousands of ants gnawing at the body and burning the heart like fire, not to mention that it lasts for a quarter of an hour? Not to mention that the Qin envoy was covered with bruises, and ordinary people couldn't survive it!

As a result, the Qin envoy's muscles and bones were injured and he was in excruciating pain. As soon as his cry for mercy stopped, Xu Zongwen covered his eyes and opened them again. When he saw that his eyes were white and his face was distorted, he had already fainted and had not recovered for a long time.

"Wake him up for me."

Zhang San used half a gourd to scoop up a full gourd of water from his employer's water tank, and poured it on Qin Shi's head. In this midwinter season, even his iron-clad body was overwhelmed by this gourd of water.

You have to take the risk!

"Ah...ah——"

Sure enough, the Qin envoy trembled and opened his eyes. He saw that he was surrounded by a group of people, and his body was tied with knotted ropes. He hurriedly asked: "Sir, I just arrived at Guibao Land, and I don't know why I offended you.

Please give me an explanation!"

Xu Zongwen walked up and Zhang San took a few steps back, "Cang——" Xu Zongwen pulled out the knife from Zhang San's waist and immediately held it against the Qin envoy, "You still don't admit that you are the special envoy sent to Qingzhou by the King of Qin?"

When the Qin envoy saw that his identity was revealed, he wanted to hide it at first. Unexpectedly, Xu Zongwen put away the knife and suddenly lowered it.

"Ah——" After a fierce cry, one of Qin Envoy's legs was chopped off by Xu Zongwen, and the ground in the small room was immediately stained red by the spurting blood. Even Qin Envoy was also injured due to the violent force.

Passed out from the pain.

Zhang San moved very quickly, scooped up a ladle of water and poured it over to wake up the Qin envoy.

Xu Zongwen: "Ask you a question and you answer it, or I will chop off your legs first and then chop off your hands. Have you ever heard of human pigs? Do you want to try what it feels like?"

Human pigging is a criminal method created by Empress Lu to retaliate against Madam Qi. It involves cutting off a person's limbs and facial features, gouging them out, and then soaking them in a large vat filled with potion. They will neither die nor survive.

, just a living dead!

The Qin envoy's face immediately turned livid, and he kept nodding his head to express his submission.

"Why did you come to Qingzhou under the order of King Qin?"

"Your Majesty has given an order. The bandits in Guanzhong are powerful and Chang'an has a small army but few generals. He ordered General Zhendong and the governor of Qingzhou to quickly recruit a large army to support Chang'an in quelling the rebellion."

"How many days have you been in Linzi?"

"It's been three days."

"How will Fu Shijun reply to you?"

"The envoy said that the troops from all counties are being assembled and they will be able to set off for Chang'an in the next few days."

The envoy of Qin did not dare to disobey and vomited everything he knew.

"Bah!" Xu Zongwen spat on the ground and cursed: "This treacherous and treacherous villain, you really shouldn't trust him."

Xu Zongwen returned the knife to Zhang San, "Ah San, chop off this messenger's head and put it on his body. Let's go again tonight."

"No!" Zhang San took the knife and walked towards Qin Envoy with a smile...

After a puff sound... Zhang San raised his knife and chopped off the Qin envoy's head, then wrapped it roughly in a piece of thick cloth.

"Langjun, head."

"Let me go, why are you so cruel?" Xu Zongwen threw away the head, but it was too late, a fishy smell had already begun to spread from his fingertips.

Xu Zongwen shouted loudly: "If we don't do anything, we will not stop. Since we have killed the Qin envoy, we have no way out. We can directly break into this mansion, arrest Fu Lang, and leave the city first."
