Qiu Dabao waved dozens of minions forward to tie up three of them. Dynasty Mahan kicked two of them over. Su Jin shouted: "Don't do anything, just let them tie them up."
Mahan of the Dynasty said anxiously: "Master... this..."
Qiu Dabao waved his hand and said: "Since Special Envoy Su understands the situation at hand, there is no need to be tied up. If the three of you are sensible, please don't resist and just follow me to the cell."
Su Jin said calmly: "Lead the way."
Qiu Dabao turned around and left. Su Jin and three other people followed him. A group of minions were waiting with swords and guns, and escorted the three people to a stone room in the south corner of Dazhai.
Su Jin's eyesight dimmed, and he felt his feet were empty. He hurriedly steadied his body, but saw a long staircase in the stone room leading underground, which turned out to be an underground prison cell.
After walking down about 30 steps, my eyes suddenly lit up. A huge cell appeared in front of me, with more than ten dim oil lamps lit inside. There were three or four cells separated by logs on one side.
There were several figures in the darkness, and they seemed to be prisoners held here.
The three bandits in custody were cooking a small hot pot and drinking wine around an earthen table. When they saw so many people pouring in, they immediately panicked and hurriedly grabbed their weapons and shouted: "Who are they?"
Qiu Dabao shouted in a deep voice: "You actually drank while on duty? Don't you want to lose your head?"
One of the bandits saw clearly that it was Qiu Dabao. He trembled with fright and said hurriedly: "Second Master, please don't tell anyone. It's very cold down there. Qi Lao Si, Ma Lao San and I want to drink some wine to keep out the cold."
"
Qiu Dabao glared and said, "Do you need to drink to keep out the cold? Wouldn't it be warmer to get some firewood and light a stove outside?"
The bandit said: "The second master doesn't know something. The space here is so small that there is no place to smoke the stove. Isn't this a smoker?"
Qiu Dabao walked in with his hands behind his back and nodded: "That makes sense. It's really cold here, but drinking on duty is against the rules of the mountain."
"Next time I won't dare to do it again. The second boss can just raise his hand and treat us like shit."
"You have a lot of wisecracks, so I'll let you go today but not next time."
The three bandits hurriedly thanked them. Qiu Dabao pointed to Su Jin and others behind him and said, "There are three new prisoners. You guys are taking good care of them."
A black and skinny bandit bared his yellow teeth and said, "I haven't mentioned it yet. Second Master, would you like to treat them to fried meat with bamboo shoots or roasted taro?"
Qiu Dabao glared at him and said: "Qi Laosi, can you please accumulate some moral virtue? When you see people, they are either frying meat with bamboo shoots or roasting taro. Stir-fried meat with bamboo shoots is fine. Dip a bamboo board in water and beat it. It doesn't matter."
How unethical is it to roast taro? Burning someone else’s eggs over charcoal fire, is this done by humans?”
Qi Laosi hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, the second master is a bit wicked."
Qiu Dabao said: "What? You said I am wicked?"
Qi Laosi hurriedly gave himself a slap in the face and said: "If I hit you for such a stinky mouth, I mean, the second boss, I am a bit wicked."
Qiu Dabao ignored him and pointed to an empty cell and said: "The three of you will be locked up there. Let me tell you, these are three court officials and important figures. You should serve them carefully. If you are missing a hair, you three
They have to walk around because they can't eat; in this case, go get some more hay to spread on, and give them two mattresses, so they don't get frozen, or the big boss will skin you."
The three bandits nodded hurriedly, opened the cell door, brought a few bales of hay to the corner of the room and laid them on the floor, then said: "Second in charge, okay?"
Qiu Dabao turned around and glanced at Su Jin. Su Jin handed over his hand and stepped into the cell. Wang Chao Ma Han hesitated for a moment and then followed suit.
Qi Laosi used a thick chain to wrap the door back and forth several times, and feared his hand: "Okay."
The bandit who had spoken to him earlier smiled and said, "Second Master, would you like to sit down and have a drink?"
Qiu Dabao waved his hand and said: "No, it's too late. I have to go back and cover myself with bed."
The three people hurriedly said: "Second Master, walk slowly."
Qiu Dabao scolded: "I wish I could leave right away so that I don't bother you guys drinking, right?"
The three people hurriedly said: "How can it be possible?"
Qiu Dabao walked to the cell and looked at Su Jin and the other three people through the fence, thoughtfully, as if he wanted to say something, but finally bit his lip, turned around and left with the others.
The old monk Su Jin was sitting still as if in trance. Mahan Chao Dynasty scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, and whispered in Su Jin's ear: "Young master, why don't you let us do it? The three of us grabbed a few knives and chopped them all the way."
Kill, maybe there is a chance to get out of trouble and go down the mountain."
Su Jin opened his eyes and glanced at the two of them, and sighed: "You two just don't use your brains. There are many bandits in this village. Where should we go when the gate of the village is closed?"
Ma Han said: "At the worst, we can kill a dozen bandits, or there is a chance to capture the bandit leader as a hostage. Wouldn't this make it possible to get down the mountain safely?"
Chao Chao also said: "Yes, the second master was in front of me just now. I really wanted to grab him as a hostage, but the young master didn't say anything, so I couldn't do it."
Su Jindao: "What's the use of killing a few bandits but losing their lives? Taking the second master as a hostage? Can't you see that the second master is just a decoration? There is another way to capture Shen Yaozu; but
Will it be easy for you to hold it? Besides, what if we go down the mountain? If we don’t get the job done and we can’t get the food back, is that still a death?”
Ma Han blinked his big eyes and said: "Then we are just going to be slaughtered by others? Master, you can't give up on yourself, the whole family is still counting on you."
Su Jin couldn't help but laugh. What was this all about? He couldn't explain it to these two people at all, so he just closed his eyes and paid attention to them.
Dynasty Mahan was at his wits end. He smelled the three bandits in the middle of the hall, eating meat pots and drinking hot wine. His heart felt like a cat scratching his head. He had just eaten a few mouthfuls of meat in the hall and was killed by the bandit leader that day.
The table was lifted, and when I smelled the smell of wine and meat, I felt like I had a little rabbit in my stomach, beating a drum.
"Hey, brother, how about some wine and meat?" Mahan finally couldn't help shouting.
The three gangsters turned around in astonishment and saw Ma Han looking at them eagerly in the crack of the wooden fence. They laughed unconsciously and said: "You want to drink wine and eat meat?"
Ma Han said: "Yeah."
Qi Laosi picked up a glass of wine and carried a piece of hot meat in his hand. He came to the fence with a smile, squatted down and said, "Want to eat meat? Do you want to drink wine?"
Ma Han said: "Just give me something to eat. Why don't you talk too much?"
Qi Laosi was stunned for a moment, then he opened his yellow teeth and laughed loudly: "Emotions are a mess."
The two bandits said, "What are you doing with him? Come and sift the wine, it's your turn."
Qi Laosi chuckled, reached out and waved the piece of meat in front of Ma Han's eyes a few times, then threw it on the ground of the cell through the wooden railing with a clack and said: "Eat, it's still warm."
Mahan was so angry that Qi Laosi, unaware of it, threw a small glass of wine at Mahan's face and said with a smile: "How does it taste?"
Ma Han was so angry that he suddenly stretched out his hand from the fence, grabbed Qi Laosi's hair, and pulled it hard. Qi Laosi immediately screamed like a killing pig, and Ma Han slapped him with his hand.
His head was crackling and whipped, making Qi Laosi cry for his father and mother.
The other two gangsters heard the sound and came over quickly. They shouted loudly and beat Ma Han hard on his hands and head with bamboo boards. Only then did Ma Han feel the pain and let go. Qi Lao Si rolled and crawled away.
Then he collapsed on the ground, his cheeks on both sides were swollen, and there were several big bumps on his head.
Qi Laosi cursed vaguely and turned around 360 degrees. When he saw the copper basin on the wall, he picked it up and ran to the cell, cursing: "I told you to act arrogant tonight?
I'll freeze you into ice pimples."
With a whoosh, a basin of cold water was poured in through the fence. Su Jin and the others could not avoid it. They were immediately soaked, and even the hay on the ground was soaked.
Qi Laosi opened his mouth and laughed loudly and said: "You will suffer tonight, mother, if it weren't for the second boss's instructions, I wouldn't believe you if I didn't let you try the skill of roasting taro."
Su Jin and the other three were covered in cold water and stood there like a drowned rat, their eyes wide open.
Ma Han was also busy wiping Su Jin up and down. Originally, he just lost his coat, but when he rubbed it with his big hands, the cold air suddenly penetrated inside, making Su Jin shiver from the cold.
Wang Chao slapped Ma Han twice on the head and scolded him: "You are a foodie, look at the good things you have done. If we can hold on, how will you survive tonight?"
Ma Han was dejected and glanced at Su Jin with lowered eyebrows, completely withered.dd
