Mr. Zhao was so frightened that he dodged, but was still hit in the thigh by an arrow.
Fortunately, the arrow did not go deep. Mr. Zhao pulled out the arrow and was about to shoot again when the sound of heavy footsteps could be heard in the forest.
"Run! Run separately!"
Mr. Zhao has not given up his last hope, but he made the wrong choice this time.
When the boy in the tree saw him running alone in the opposite direction to the others, he jumped down from the tree and chased Mr. Zhao.
Mr. Zhao was hit by an arrow in the leg, which had some effect. Besides, he had been running for so long before, and soon he was exhausted. The young man flew forward, kicked him in the back, and knocked him down.
Kicked to the ground.
Mr. Zhao rolled on the ground, then bounced up suddenly. He drew his knife in mid-air and slashed at the pressing young man.
But the young man's body movements were ghostly, and he turned around and came around behind him, and kicked him over again.
Mr. Zhao became angry, and with the long knife in his hand dancing like an airtight weapon, he pushed towards the young man.
The young man didn't fight with him at all, but just circled around him. Mr. Zhao was so angry that he flew into a rage, but he couldn't do anything against the young man.
When he was exhausted and couldn't even swing the knife, he realized that he had been surrounded.
The look on Mr. Zhao's face suddenly flashed, and he raised the knife and slashed his throat.
But the young man stepped forward and kicked the numb tendon on his elbow. Mr. Zhao's hand suddenly shook and the long knife fell to the ground.
When Mr. Zhao was escorted by the young man to Yang Xuan, the young man showed a bright smile.
"Mr. Yang, I must be awesome."
Yang Xuan nodded: "It's amazing, I'll give you a great credit this time."
This young man was naturally Zhang Junbao. Hearing this, he was overjoyed: "I have made such a great contribution, I should be able to eat pizza."
Yang Xuan smiled awkwardly: "There will be opportunities."
Zhang Junbao suddenly pouted.
Yang Xuan came to Mr. Zhao and looked at him carefully: "With your virtues, do you deserve to be called Mr.?"
Mr. Zhao turned his head, closed his eyes, and ignored Yang Xuan at all.
Yang Xuan chuckled: "Take it away."
Qiongshan County's plan to suppress bandits has come to an end.
This battle seemed easy to win, but in fact Yang Xuan had already used all his cards.
Not only were all the soldiers of the Qiongzhou Guard mobilized, but also the police officers of the Qiongzhou Prefecture, as well as the guards of the Qiongwang Palace, and even the workers and common people were mobilized.
Of course, the most important thing is Wang Hai, a shady pirate. If he hadn't blocked the dock, these bandits would have run away.
When I returned to Qiongzhou Mansion, I was naturally rewarded based on my merits, and everything was the same as the Chinese New Year.
In addition, of course, it is to interrogate Mr. Zhao.
However, Mr. Zhao was surprisingly able to bear it. Dong Tianbao kept him up for five days and five nights, but he did not let go.
Dong Tianbao came to Yang Xuan with dark circles under his eyes: "Mr. Yang, this guy is too tight-lipped. This fatigue interrogation method will not work on him."
Yang Xuan patted Dong Tianbao on the shoulder and said: "It seems that this guy has received some special training. It's okay. You can go and rest. I have a way to deal with him."
Dong Tianbao hadn't slept well in the past five days, so he hurriedly went to rest, while Yang Xuan had someone build a wooden box.
The box was one meter high, one and a half meters long, and eighty centimeters wide. Mr. Zhao was then put inside.
At first, Mr. Zhao thought he would be buried alive and was very disdainful. However, Yang Xuan had someone put the box in a secluded place and left it alone.
On the first day, Mr. Zhao slept very hard. When he woke up, he was about to stretch his body, but found that he could not straighten his legs and could not sit up. The feeling was not to mention how uncomfortable it was.
He thought he was going to be buried alive, but he found that the place where he was was extremely quiet, with no sound or light, but his breathing was not affected at all.
At first, he was a little confused. This guy didn't need to be tortured or interrogated. What was he doing by stuffing himself into a box?
But one day later, he felt something was wrong. The physical discomfort was bearable, but the mental torture made him feel extremely irritable.
But no matter how irritable he was, he couldn't get out of the box. On the third day, the box was finally opened a crack, but he only threw two steamed buns in and closed it again. No matter how much he yelled and cursed,
No one said a word to him.
Two days later, Mr. Zhao's anger had been vented and he became quiet. At this time, even if his own feces and urine were smeared all over his body, he didn't notice it. His stomach was burning like a fire because of hunger.
He also turned a blind eye to the steamed buns thrown in.
Just when he was on the verge of collapse, he felt the box being lifted, and from the sound of footsteps, he judged that he was being carried from indoors to outdoors.
At this time, he was extremely sensitive to any movement. Finally, the box was opened, and he saw the sunshine that had not been seen for many days.
The first thing he heard was, it stinks so much, please wash him first.
Then basin after basin of water was poured on him, which gradually made him come back to his senses.
Yang Xuan looked at Mr. Zhao who looked like a dead dog, and asked coldly: "Name."
Mr. Zhao struggled subconsciously, but after a while, he still said: "Zhao Erhu."
Yang Xuan raised his eyebrows and continued to ask.
It turns out that this guy named Zhao Erhu is from the Zhao family in Minzhou Prefecture, and is known as the Five Tigers of the Zhao family.
The Five Tigers of the Zhao family are actually orphans raised by the Zhao family since childhood. They specialize in doing shady things, and Zhao Erhu came to Qiongzhou Island just to do smuggling work.
In the past, when there was no sea ban, the Zhao family had trade relations with many Hu merchants. Now that there is a sea ban, this trade can only change from overt to covert.
But this matter is not that complicated. After all, the Zhao family's ship docked in Minzhou Prefecture, and the government did not investigate it at all.
All he has to do is to deal with those Hu merchants at sea.
The reason why we got into trouble with Qiongzhou Mansion was because of the instructions in the family.
I originally thought that with so many people in Qiongzhou Prefecture, I could easily handle it, but I didn't expect that it would end up like this.
Of course he knew that Prince Qiong was in charge of Qiongzhou Mansion, but he also knew that behind the Zhao family was the current prince.
As for why the prince wants to marry the third prince, ordinary people don't know, but the Zhao family naturally knows it.
Originally, it didn't matter that Zhao Erhu was in trouble, but the Zhao family couldn't bear the crime of going to sea privately and having an affair with a businessman.
If the prince is involved, it will be a disaster of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan.
Originally, Zhao Erhu wanted to die, but he really couldn't bear the trouble. Looking back on what he had experienced in the past few days, it can be said that he could not live but die.
So he answered whatever Yang Xuan asked without hiding anything. At this time, he no longer expected to live. As long as he could die happily, he was willing to do anything.
