Chapter 218 The Lamplighter

Chapter 218 Lamplighter

The county soldiers in front of the hut waved their spears at the high and low country soldiers, instructing them to bring the criminals into the house for questioning.

The dwarf soldier said to the gaoxiang soldier, "It's okay. I'll take him in alone."

"Okay." Gao Xiangbing was as honest as ever, taking whatever others said as his own.

The width of the fence gate of the hut is just enough to accommodate the width of the shackles.

There were no windows in the house, so light came in and the door was closed again.

Darkness suddenly!

The attack is sudden!

First there was the sound of people struggling violently, and then there was the sound of spears falling and the shackles being knocked to the ground.

Soon, these sounds disappeared.

"Huh." Someone blew.

A wisp of flame appeared out of thin air, lighting up the candle lamp on the desk.

Both Aixiang Bing and Su Jun were stepped on the ground by the county soldiers, and their foreheads were pressed with daggers. No wonder they didn't dare to struggle.

Su Jun tilted his head slightly, and the dagger pierced his forehead. Fortunately, he had already seen the lamplighter. The other person looked old and powerful, with short gray stubble on half of his face. At this time, only the other person was sitting upright, with five county soldiers

They were all standing, which showed that the identity of the other party was indeed unusual. But on the way to the valley, and in the past few days since arriving in the valley, he had observed carefully and was sure that he had never seen this lamplighter.

Poor Su Jun, he has been a criminal for so many years and has never been photographed in the water, so he has no idea what he looks like.

But the dwarf soldier knew it! So when he saw that the lamplighter looked the same as Su Jun, he immediately made many associations, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.

The two county soldiers continued to use daggers against the dwarf soldier and Su Jun, and two more came forward, tied their hands behind their backs, tied their legs tightly, and tied cloth strips outside their mouths. The cloth strips were tied with large knots, which were just right for them to rest on.

The mouths of Su Jun and the two of them were soaked in unknown drugs, and Su Jun and Aixiang Bing soon felt their mouths numb.

Is that okay?

No way! The dwarf soldier screamed in pain, and his right arm was twisted and dislocated by the county soldier.

The same happened to Su Jun's left wrist joint. He was not afraid of this kind of pain and only frowned.

Immediately afterwards, the iron knife hidden in the sleeve of the dwarf soldier was taken away.

The lamplighter then spoke: "Zhang San, from Fangting, Shanyin County, from the people of Tingting."

"Zhang San" is exactly the name of Aixiang Bing.

"A year ago, you and your family of seven were on their way to the Nuwa Temple. It rained heavily on the way, and the ox cart rolled down the mountain. You were the only one who survived. The others all fell into the rapids at the bottom of the mountain, and no bones were left."

Zhang San endured the pain in his arm and did not dare to say a word.

Su Jun lowered his eyelids and finally knew something was wrong. The lamplighter's voice sounded so much like him. At this moment, when he looked at the white beard that took up half of his face, Su Jun burst into laughter. Before coming to the valley,

The local soldiers cut his beard short for no reason, so that's it.

Lamplighter, impersonate him!

The lamplighter ignored Su Jun at all and still only looked at Zhang San and asked: "Jing County is quite far away. You and your family have not communicated since you were separated. How can you be sure that they are still alive?"

Zhang San was so frightened that he felt countless cold winds pouring into his scalp. His family was picked up by people sent by his employer, and only the bullock cart fell to the bottom of the mountain. How did the other party know about such a secret thing?

"On the 20th of last month, the criminals in Jing County, under the order of the county magistrate Jiang Yang, massacred all the common people in the city, old and weak. Your parents, young son, were all killed that night."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!" Impossible! Zhang's eyes were split open, and he tried desperately to break free from the control of the county soldiers, but he couldn't break free. Impossible, impossible! He did such a dangerous thing for his employer and risked the lives of his whole family.

Come and surrender, who is that beast Jiang Yang, how dare you kill his family?

Lamplighter: "Don't worry, I know what you want to say. What do you want to say...you are working for the ancestral governor, so who does Jiang Yang mean? How could he have the courage to kill your family?"

Admit it, the most secretive things have been revealed. Su Jun on the side closed his eyes.

Zhang San was trembling and staring at the ground with a guilty conscience. No wonder he sealed their mouths with cloth strips. It turned out that he didn't need to answer anything at all. The other party had found out everything.

"Jiang Yang thinks the same as you... The governor wants Su Jun. Who does Zhang San? Who does the Zhang family count?" After the lamplighter finished speaking, he picked up the folded cloth on the case, stood up, came over, and squatted next to Su Jun.

In front of the face, there is a long needle pinned to the cloth towel with twine on it.

Su Jun couldn't calm down anymore. What did the other party want to do?

"Woo! Woo, woo, woo!"

Amid the terrifying screams, Su Jun's eyes were pinched tightly by the lamplighter and his eyelids were sewn shut.

During this process, the county soldiers dragged Zhang San down and brought his face close to Su Jun's.

Black threads, red blood, and the sound of threads piercing flesh are terrifying.

After the lamplighter sewed one eye, he sewed the other one and said, "He doesn't even recognize his own appearance. Having eyes is worse than having no eyes. Don't worry, after sewing him, I will sew you."

Zhang San gasped and stared at the boss. What do you mean? You have been interrogating him alone since you entered the hut. Isn't it possible to keep his life and use him to connect with the rebels?

"Woo..." Su Jun's beating suddenly intensified, and blood mixed with other colors flowed out from the slits of his eyes. His eyeballs were punctured by a needle.

Zhang San was frightened and drowned.

After the lamplighter finished sewing, he wiped the blood on the cloth and sharpened the needle. With half of the thread left, he gestured in front of Zhang San's mouth: "I know everything about you. What's the use of keeping you?"

Who wants to die if he can live? Or be tortured to death! Zhang San is eager to express that he is useful. He knows that there is an insider among the criminals. He can help the lamplighter impersonate Su Jun more smoothly! He no longer works for the ancestral governor, he

The lamplighter works hard!

Outside the craftsman examination room.

There were more salesmen than yesterday. The sun was setting, and nearby farmers closed their food stalls and prepared to go home. Jiang Youxiu, who pretended to be Feng Salesman, bought a wheat cake and sat on the ground, facing the examination room.

"Hey!" Jiang Youjiang called to a salesman who was leaning against a tree and looking into the examination room.

The salesman, wearing a bright flower on his head, came over with a load and said with a gruff voice, "What do you call me for?"

Jiang Youxi tore half of the cake and handed it to the other party: "Take it, it's not easy to go out. This cake is hard to chew and swallow, so I can eat half of it."

After the vendor took the cake, Jiang Youxiu stopped looking at him and continued to look at the examination room and sighed.

The salesman sat down and asked, "Are you worried?"

"Haha, nothing. I just choked."

"What do you think this is?" The salesman took out a cloth bag from the basket and opened it.

Jiang Youjiu's eyes widened: "Meat pie?"

"Yes. Don't think I am stingy. If you are not willing to give me half of the wheat cake, I will not be willing to share your meat cake. Take it, and we will get half of it. Oh, take it!"

Jiang Youjiu's eyes were red, and he said with a grateful look: "Well, then I can eat it." He chewed heavily, "Hey, the meatloaf doesn't choke."

The salesman also ate happily. The meatloaf was left for too long and it also hurt his throat. He coughed several times. The coughing sound was strange. It was not as loud as his voice. If you closed your eyes and listened, you would definitely be mistaken for a girl.

cough.

Jiang Youjiu handed over the bamboo pot, looked at the examination room and said sadly: "I regret coming to Kuaiji Mountain. If I had known that the craftsmen had been taking exams inside, it would be better to collect some utensils in the county town. I am from Chuyi County, and you are

Who?"

The salesman's suspicion was dispelled by the other party's constant nagging. He took the bamboo pot and sniffed it cautiously before putting it in his mouth. The water was fine, but he didn't drink it anymore. "I'm a local."

"The locals are nice. I heard that the 'Muzhuli' in the city is full of carpenters' shops. Every night just picking up scraps can sell them for a lot of money. Is this really such a good thing?"

"Ah. That's right."

"Yeah!" Jiang Youxiao covered his stomach, "I have to relieve myself, can we come together?"

The salesman looked very unhappy.

Jiang Youjiu scratched his head in confusion, picked up the burden and ran away.
