Chapter 168

Chapter 168 Fengmanlou

Going deeper and deeper,

The wind roared louder and louder, as if it was going to destroy the ruined temple and the people inside.

Fang Wu couldn't help but cross his arms and walked with a trembling body.

Ji Xuan supported him and followed behind.

The road seems a little longer,

It has grown so long that the end cannot be seen, until everyone is trembling a little, feeling that it is very dark here,

Only then did I see the end,

It was dark, with a piece of black linen covering the faint moonlight in the sky,

There are some wooden boards and execution benches scattered on the ground. Going inside, there is a bent man, Uncle Wang.

Zhang Xuan looked over and saw that he was lying there taking a nap, and under his feet was the tortured Huang Zhong.

The latter's body was covered in blood and there was no intact part, only his original clothes were still hanging on his body.

"Uncle Wang? Uncle Wang?" Zhou She called several times.

"Um?"

When Uncle Wang heard this, he slowly opened his eyes and rubbed his face. When he saw everyone asking, "What's wrong?"

"We want to ask a few questions." Uncle Wang nodded, took out a packet of powdered medicine from his arms, handed it to several people, then walked to the end and continued to sleep while leaning on one of the torture benches.

Zhou She knelt down and stuffed the medicinal powder into Huang Zhong's mouth.

He pulled out a bucket of water mixed with mud from a dry well nearby and poured it on Huang Zhong's face. Then he looked at Fang Wu and the others and said, "Ask me."

Fang Wu took his hand out of Ji Xuan's and strode forward, just in time to see Huang Zhong open his chaotic eyes.

Seeing Fang Wu approaching step by step, Huang Zhong even forgot to lift his buttocks, so he stepped back.

The sound of skin rubbing against the ground seemed to tell countless people what happened to him.

"Have you seen Zhu Sanping?" Fang Wu asked.

Huang Zhong only nodded, his eyes dull.

"when."

"It's... it's been a while." Huang Zhong said, his words were mixed with blood and saliva, and as the words poured out, they hung on Huang Zhong's chin like beads of sweat.

I don’t know what kind of method Uncle Wang used to prevent the spittle from falling off and staying on his chin.

"Who asked you to take us where?" Fang Wu continued to ask.

That intensity, those people,

Although they were all a mob, if it weren't for Mu Qing and the others, Fang Wu couldn't imagine what kind of results he would have had.

Because neither she nor Zhang Xuan can resist Bai An.

"A man wearing a red official robe, wearing a mask to exorcise evil spirits." Huang Zhong's head seemed to be pulled by something, and he spat out these words bit by bit.

It makes people feel rigid and devoid of any emotion.

Fang Wu didn't quite believe this look, so he continued to ask with hesitation: "How tall is he approximately? Is he fat or not?"

"Medium build." Huang Zhong said.

"Have you ever seen me before? How many years have you been working as a supervisor in this town?"

"Almost four years."

This time there was a hint of sluggishness, but it disappeared so quickly that Fang Wu almost missed it.

"How close are you to Zhu Sanping?" Bai An suddenly stepped forward and asked.

Huang Zhong raised a few fingers, and it took him a while to arrive: "I've met him three or five times, and he takes good care of me."

Hearing this, Wang Qi nodded, stepped forward and asked, "What kind of person is he in your image?"

When he asked this question, there were many colors in his eyes, which made people unpredictable.

"He's a talker. He talks a lot, but he seems to be able to see deep into your heart."

Huang Zhong was stunned for a while and said.

"What did he tell you?"

"It's a mess, everything is there, I can't remember clearly."

"Where can I find him?"

"Changque Street, Zhu Mansion."

"..." "..." After that, several people asked some more questions, and Huang Zhong answered them all. He answered what they asked.

It was almost early in the morning when we were waiting for a few people to come out from behind.

Mu Qing probably came back at this time. With a solemn expression, he gently opened the door of the wing where Tan Sihan was.

In the wing room, Qin Sihan fell asleep in a daze,

Eunuch Bai was tilting his head behind the door. Even though his movement was very gentle, Eunuch Bai still noticed it.

He opened his eyes and took a look. As soon as he made any movement, Mu Qing said: "Father, go and have a rest. I will wait for you."

His voice was very low, for fear of waking up Tan Sihan,

Shiraishi nodded and retreated, but did not leave. He curled up outside and continued to take a nap.

However, Mu Qing did not wake up Tan Sihan. He just groped into the corner and knelt down, waiting for Tan Sihan to wake up...

The hour is right,

Qin Sihan opened her sleepy eyes, held the edge of the bed and sat up silently,

I looked around,

Bai Xi was still a little unwell. Just as he was about to get out of bed, he heard Mu Qing say: "Is he awake?"

"Huh?" Tan Sihan looked over to find the source of the sound, and saw Mu Qing kneeling forward.

"If you wake up, could you please tell me something from my subordinates?" Mu Qing only heard a "hmm" and heard no other sound, so he asked again.

When Qin Sihan heard this, he took back his legs that were drooping off the bed, continued to lie down and said, "Go ahead."

With Qin Sihan's consent, Mu Qing came one by one, "My subordinates have verified that Cao Kun opened an underground casino in Kairui Teahouse to satisfy the officials' selfish desires, and hired many Liba to maintain order.

In addition, this teahouse is not far from Xinxin Teahouse, so the two can take care of each other."

"Furthermore, Cao Kun once had a dead slave named Chang Chi, but now there is no trace. His subordinates believe that Chang Chi is this Chang Zi, but they have never been in contact with him and are not sure."

Mu Qing spoke slowly, while listening to Qin Sihan's movements, he said,

"Therefore, if I want to go to Xinxin Tea House to meet Changzi, I must think carefully and bring enough people. After I have finished reporting, I ask you to give me some instructions."

These things were naturally done by Mu Qing after he separated from Fang Wu. Although he could not see, his actions based on his ears and nose were basically the same as ordinary people.

"Where did the news come from?"

"Zhu Lan, the son of Zhu Sanping, said that regarding Chang Zi's matter, my subordinates inquired about the inside information that Brother Bai had left in the Yamen. I didn't let my subordinates make their own decisions regarding this matter, so I asked you to blame me."

"I understand. Go get some water and help me wash up. I'll ask your brother Bo later whether he will be punished or not. I'll just come and ask him later. Don't let him know about it yet."

"Yes." Mu Qing moved,

What Qin Sihan said was how to use nature, but Qin Sihan didn't think too much about it.

He planned to forward the matter to Ji Xuan, Fang Wu and others, asking the latter to think of ways to make better use of it.

He is used to giving orders to others. He always talks but does not do anything. Of course, making suggestions is not considered top-notch.

Maybe it was good in the past, but calling slaves and maids is really not good now. So he simply didn't think about it and just relayed...
