Chapter 942 Chapter 942: Encounter on a narrow road (Part 1) [Please vote]
Ministry of Punishment, temporary prison.
It is said to be a prison, but it is actually a small, dark room.
There are no windows on all sides of the small house, only a skylight is opened above the beam, allowing a ray of sunlight to pour in. This ray of sunlight is also the only light source in the house. Through the light source, the indoor furnishings can be vaguely seen. The surroundings were empty, and the wavy-shaped style left uneven traces along the wall. There were no horrific and inhumane instruments of torture as imagined. Liu Changshi was imprisoned on the wooden frame, her **** head hanging down. If her chest hadn't risen slightly, at first glance, she would have been thought to have turned into a corpse.
"Well-"
Liu Changshi frowned in discomfort.
Opening her eyes slightly, she was alone in the small room.
She didn't know what was weird about this room, but she felt uncomfortable when she was in it. Her breathing quickened uncontrollably, and she seemed to be able to hear the sound of blood rushing in her body. When you gather your energy to listen, the sound disappears without a trace, as if it is an illusion.
She grinned, trying to sense the literary energy in Dan Mansion.
Although Shen Tang's palm wind did not use her full strength, she was not as strong as a brave warrior and could not withstand such strength. Just one face-to-face encounter caused all the meridians and cultural energy to go into chaos, with the literary energy flowing out of control, and some of them accidentally flowing backwards.
Coupled with internal organ damage, injuries add to injuries.
It's just that the methods of the Kangguo Criminal Department were well-deserved, and the banning methods were also special. She couldn't feel the existence of Wenqi and Danfu, so she gave up after trying a few times. She raised her head and observed the room. When she saw the wave-like literary style on the wall, her heart beat inexplicably, and an unspeakable manic emotion crept into her mind. She simply closed her eyes and tried to calm her out-of-control emotions by adjusting her breathing. It had some effect at first, but after just a few breaths, the emotion came back with a vengeance.
No, there is something wrong with this room!
This place is so quiet!
You should know that even though she was sealed in the Dan Mansion, her ears are still there. The sounds of wind, falling leaves, chirping of birds, beasts and insects, and even the breathing of people nearby, which I usually didn't pay attention to, all disappeared at this moment. At this moment, are the eyes seeing reality or an illusion?
Liu Changshi shook his head hard, trying to maintain his rationality.
Obviously, this behavior is futile. She bit the tip of her tongue again, using the pain of her nails digging into her palms to relieve the discomfort.
Blood dripped down the corners of his lips and palms.
Finally, an unknown amount of time passed, and just when she thought her heart was about to burst, her throat spasmed and twitched, and she vomited a mouthful of steaming, undigested filth with pale lips. At this moment, even the veins on his forehead were throbbing and twitching.
The objects seen by both eyes overlap.
She moved her lips and vomited in pain.
Just when she was about to lean back hard enough to knock herself out or even kill herself, the door of the small room quietly opened and a woman in a purple dress walked in. The woman's appearance is very outstanding, but the corners of her lips are curved downward, her eyes are sinister and cold, and she exudes the aura of keeping strangers away from her. The woman raised her hand and held the sword on her waist, and walked into the small room with another man.
The woman in purple was half a step behind the man. The young man glanced at Liu Changshi's embarrassed appearance, raised his hand to cover his nose with his fingers, and curled up the corners of his lips: "How does it feel to be tortured with silence?"
Physical torture can only torture the prisoner's body. The Ministry of Punishment is more interested in torturing the prisoner's spirit and breaking his will without harming the prisoner. As long as the opponent's mental defense is relaxed, the Torture Word Spirit can exert its greatest effect.
Liu Changshi sneered: "That's it?"
At some point, her voice became rough and hoarse. What she thought was an aggressive provocation was just a weak whisper.
“The main dish hasn’t been served yet, why are you in a hurry?”
With that said, the two men brought up a shelf.
The shelves were hung with all kinds of kits, all of which contained the horrifying torture methods of the Ministry of Punishment. Gu Chi clicked his tongue and said, "Kang Jishou is really getting more and more fancy at his tricks."
You say that the Ministry of Punishment is not for human beings, but in action you adapt very well. Gu Chi has a special way of being a scholar, and he often goes to the punishment department from time to time. Compared with Yushitai, an offending institution, Gu Chi preferred the Ministry of Punishment. Unfortunately, her master refused.
“Which tip do you like?”
As the shelf fell to the ground, the door of the small dark room was closed again.
Liu Changshi had no energy to respond to him.
Seeing that she had given up on helping herself, Gu Chi had no choice but to help her choose. While choosing, he chatted: "Money is something that cannot be taken with you in life or death. It is not worth the woman's life for it. Gu knows that you are The master of the spy sent from the Northern Desert is Brother Tude. It seems to be fate, Brother Tude is still Gu's previous master. From this relationship, we are still colleagues. Do you want to listen to the words of the predecessors? Brother Tude doesn't have the spirit of an emperor, and you will definitely achieve nothing with him, and the female queen secretly casts her."
Gu Chi opened a blind box.
He took out a piece of paper and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Why is the queen so afraid of Gu? Gu is only good at reading minds and is not a monster that can get into people's brains..." Gu Chi listened to a series of unpleasant curses in Liu Changshi's heart and spread out the paper. , came closer to her eyes so that she could take a closer look, Liu Changshi rolled his tongue, brewing a mouthful of spittle. But she didn't have any strength, and **** saliva flowed from the corner of her mouth to her chin. Gu Chi said, "Do you feel that your head hurts, your ears can't hear, and your eyes are in a trance?"
“Don’t worry, that’s what silencer punishment is.”
“No one has survived two hours so far.”
“The female monarch is tenacious and may be able to break the record of the Ministry of Punishment.”
Liu Changshi's face was twitching and contorting. In order to endure the discomfort, his eyes were covered with scarlet bloodshot eyes, and a small, winding red snake emerged from his eyes, ears, mouth and nose. She closed her eyes and gritted her teeth, as if her teeth were about to be broken by her own teeth.
At this moment, a cold finger touched her eyebrows.
Her attention was focused there uncontrollably.
Wherever the coldness passes, the pain recedes like the tide.
She opened her eyelids that were covered with sticky blood, and the sounds in her ears were sometimes close and sometimes far away, sometimes as small as a gnat, sometimes as noisy as a bell, and accompanied by a strong chaotic echo. Liu Changshi tried to see clearly what Gu Chi was going to do, but his eyes only saw the other person's lips opening and closing: "...But, if necessary, Gu doesn't mind transforming into such a terrifying monster."
It took Liu Changshi a while to digest these contents.
Following this, his head seemed to explode from the inside out.
Countless memories flashed back uncontrollably.
Including things she tried hard to forget, things she thought she had forgotten, and even things that had been completely forgotten...
“Stop, stop—”
Liu Changshi’s eyes are about to burst!
Only then did she understand why insiders had been missing over the years. No matter how deep they were hidden, they would be dug out. Someone really could forcibly read another person's memory! What the **** is this? Liu Changshi bit the tip of his tongue, preparing to kill himself with force.
Yu Zi’s quick eyes and hands quickly removed her lower jaw.
“When you enter the Ministry of Punishment, you have no final say in life or death!”
Liu Changshi cursed vaguely: "Bitch—"
Yu Zi didn’t take her words to heart.
Prisoners who entered the Penal Department were scolded much more harshly than this. It was the most basic thing to greet their ancestors for eighteen generations. Occasionally, when she heard someone scold her father's family for their clever scolding, Yu Zi would be in a good mood and ask people to feed the prisoners, and if she knew how to scold, she would scold them more often.
Just when Yu Zi was about to persuade her not to do anything in vain, a strong sense of crisis rushed towards Tianling Gai. Without thinking, she followed her body's instinct and unsheathed her sword, and several literary barriers rose up under her feet in a hurry. He grabbed Gu Chi's shoulder back with one hand, and stabbed Liu Changshi's neck with the sword edge with the other hand. In this case, I'm afraid someone might come to rob the prison! According to the rules of the Ministry of Punishment, I would rather have a prisoner's body than return to the mountain with endless troubles!
It's just that Yu Zi's actions were a step slower after all.
In other words, the visitor moved too quickly.
Several cultural barriers were like paper, failing to hinder the visitor for a moment. The sword's edge was still an arm's length away from Liu Changshi's vital point, and it was difficult for him to make any further progress! It was a hand, a man's right hand. This right hand is not even wearing protective gear!
In the lightning flash, Yu Zi could clearly see the appearance of the person coming.
The small house made of Yanling was exploded from the inside by the air wave.
Gu Chi, who was forcibly interrupted from his career as a scribe, did not bother to suppress the countercurrent meridians, and used a [shifting flowers and wood] to pull away, and his eyes passed through the air waves to see the man's face clearly: "Gong Yunchi!"
Gong Cheng had no intention of taking action or responding.
Carrying Liu Changshi with him, he prepared to evacuate.
This rashing has been risky. Shen Youli is not far away. The other party comes, and it is a bit troublesome to leave. He wanted to leave, but Shen Tang didn't allow it.
A bright sword light struck him on the way back.
The sword blade forced Gong Cheng back to where he was.
Shen Tang also recognized Gong Cheng when she arrived. She only met Gong Cheng a few times, and the last time she met was in the first year of Yuanhuang.
After so many years, I have long forgotten this person’s aura.
I didn’t even expect that the person coming would be him.
“Gong Cheng, are Beimo preparing for war?”
Gong Cheng smashed the prisoner who was imprisoning Liu Chang and Stan Mansion with one palm, and said quietly: "Gong cannot bear the responsibility of starting a war between the two places."
Shen Tang went to Gu Chi and Yu Zi first.
Seeing that nothing happened to the two of them, I felt relieved.
His sight again saw the subordinates of the Punishment Department lying on the ground, and murderous intent surged: "Can't you bear it? Can't you bear the commotion in the Punishment Department?"
Gong Cheng: "Gong is responsible for her duties. She cannot die yet. I hope Mr. Shen will not be embarrassed. You and I are going to war here. The final outcome is hard to predict, but the Jinli County administration will be in disaster."
He also noticed Shen Tang's gaze falling several times, and calmly explained: "They are just unconscious and their lives are not in danger. If it is not necessary, Gong's hands do not want to be stained with the blood of his own people."
Shen Tang is indeed taking advantage of the situation.
She sneered several times, and the fingers holding the hilt of the sword turned blue and white. She was obviously trying her best to restrain herself from taking action: "Indeed, but if you don't kill Boren, Boren will die because of you. If you help Beimo, whether it's to contain me , or to contain other generals, even if you don’t kill people, every one of the people killed by Bei Mo with the help of morale was your fault, Gong Yunchi, and you can’t clean them!”
Gong Cheng had no reaction to this.
He only said: "If Mr. Shen wants to start a war, Beimo will welcome you."
Shen Tang could not just watch Gong Cheng lead people away.
“Gong Yunchi, don’t even think about leaving!”
Gong Cheng was not a brave warrior who took the agile route. He was somewhat disadvantaged in terms of speed, and he ran into a sword blade that seemed to tear apart the space. He didn't even frown, and he instantly put on full armor, asking Liu Changshi to take care of himself first and attack head-on.
Gu Chi swallowed the blood in his throat and said, "Stop it, my lord!" People who heard the noise came one after another.
Although Qian Yong didn't know what was going on, he saw that Shen Tang took action in person and knew that there was a lot of movement. He immediately chose to use force to transform his soldiers into defensive formations, forming a thick barrier to protect the buildings and people below. Avoid disaster.
Gong Cheng didn’t dare to delay seeing this posture.
One pick, he is confident.
But this is Shen Tang’s base camp.
You will only suffer losses if you fight.
“Jun Shen, please forgive me.”
Gong Cheng grabbed Liu Changshi and made a hand seal with his other hand.
At the moment when Shen Tang's sword struck, the two people's bodies turned into starlight and dispersed, their aura disappeared on the spot, and they disappeared without a trace.
Shen Tang gritted his teeth: "Do you think you can run away?"
The next moment, a strange mark appeared on his forehead.
Even if it is a complex word spirit like [Shrink the Earth to an Inch], as long as it is a word spirit, it will leave traces, and it is not impossible to follow the traces to catch people. Gong Cheng should still be in Jinli County at this moment! Seeing that Shen Tang wanted to pursue him, Gu Chi vomited blood again in desperation.
“Can’t—Lord—”
A man was so impatient that he almost fell off the roof.
Shen Tang still had reason to think, so he jumped out of the way and grabbed Gu Chi's shoulders.
“Watch the tide!”
Sensing that the aura in his body was disordered, he took action to suppress it. With Shen Tang's help, Gu Chi's aura became smoother after a while: "That person's most important memory has been obtained, cough cough cough - it doesn't make much sense for the Lord to catch up with her. , and it’s easy to be ambushed.”
There is a small elite group from the Northern Desert in Jinli County.
These elites specialize in assassinations.
Help the lurking Northern Desert spies to eliminate dissidents.
If the protagonist catches up, he will easily fall into passivity with Gong Cheng in charge. Shen Tang reluctantly looked at the direction in which Gong Cheng disappeared, sighed helplessly, and the mark on his forehead gradually faded: "I won't chase him, you can adjust your luck first."
Gu Chi grabbed her arm tightly, fearing that she would run away in anger. Although his face was pale, his eyes were particularly bright: "The most important thing at the moment is to get ahead of these people and set up a hidden stake in Beimo in Kunzhou." Remove them all…must be quick!”
The rebels in Kunzhou are so arrogant. In addition to the rebels' tireless efforts to destroy Shen Tang's reputation and intimidate the local people, who were deceived into aiding the tyrants, another reason is that Beimo secretly funded him. The royal court had always been suspicious before, but could never find any evidence. This was also the reason for sending the supervisory censor to secretly investigate.
If there is a war with Bei Mo, Kunzhou must maintain stability.
Shen Tang nodded in agreement: "Yes."
Compared with what’s happening in front of me, Gong Cheng’s side is not that important.
at the same time-
Gong Cheng and Gong Cheng appeared in a strange open space.
The scenery nearby does not resemble the style of Jinli County.
Liu Changshi meditated and adjusted his breath, and after walking around with Wen Qi, the discomfort caused by the silenced torture receded a lot, but there was still a little fear left in her heart - Gu Chi felt like she was in a deserted place in her memory, that kind of The fear of having no secrets never goes away.
She stood up after recovering a little: "Go back quickly."
Gong Cheng was sitting not far away, closing his eyes and regulating his breath.
Liu Changshi asked him: "Why did you come so late?"
Gong Cheng said: "I met an acquaintance."
He rushed over as soon as he received the news.
Liu Changshi smiled angrily: "Meet an acquaintance?"
Gong Cheng avoided talking to the acquaintance and only warned: "If you hadn't insisted on rushing back and been caught, there wouldn't have been such troubles. It turns out that Shen Youli has no direct evidence to prove that Beimo interfered in Jinli County, so it would be better for you. , deliver the evidence to your doorstep.”
In war, it is also important to have a division that is famous.
Now, there is no need to make excuses for starting a war in the Northern Desert.
Liu Changshi's expression changed and he took a deep breath: "There was a traitor. I originally wanted to spare her life, but I didn't expect..."
She had investigated the female soldier early in the morning.
I never considered this person a threat from the beginning.
But she didn't want to, and stabbed her in the back at the critical moment.
Gong Cheng said lightly: "With Shen Youli's character, she can't do anything like whipping the corpse to vent her anger. Your sister doesn't want to go to a place like Bei Mo. What's wrong with letting her be buried here?"
Liu Changshi did not respond.
Gong Cheng is also used to it: "Let's go."
Even though he didn’t know the information about Gu Chi’s way of being a scribe, judging from the situation at the time, it was probably leaked. It’s hard to say how much was leaked. Now we can only do our best to make amends, no matter how much we can recover. Even Beimo didn't expect that after years of planning, it would be torn apart during the closing stage. With Shen Youli's thunderous skills, Kunzhou will never be in chaos as long as the internal troubles are eradicated.
Bei Mo’s plan is about to come to nothing.
Others, just let it happen.
Liu Changshi forced out a mouthful of blood and felt that his heart was a little clearer. His eyes were sinister and he said: "How can a lonely person like you understand how important my sister is to me?"
Gong Cheng gave a faint smile and mocked: "Of course I understand, but I also understand that she is important, but not as important as yourself."
Liu Changshi stood up staggeringly.
“What’s the difference between you and me?”
She disliked Gong Cheng.
It’s not that Gong Cheng is a bad person, on the contrary, he lives in seclusion in the Northern Desert and has no grievances with other people.
What she dislikes about Gong Cheng is that when we are all in the same quagmire, why is he pretending to be noble? Shen Youli's words are really heart-wrenching questions - if betrayal is not complete, loyalty is not complete, hypocrisy is not complete, and sincerity is not complete, why is he noble?
Gong Cheng said: "It's no different."
Liu Changshi choked.
The calm heart surged again.
Even though she was eager to return home and wanted to go back to Jinli County quickly to clean up the secret mess to avoid being hunted down by Shen Tang, she could only hold back at the moment. However, after two breaths, he didn't feel any change in the space, so he couldn't help but look up at Gong Cheng.
“Why are you delaying on purpose?”
Gong Cheng certainly didn’t delay on purpose.
His eyes fell on a tree, a tree with a giant reticulated python coiled around it. The snake was wrapped around one of the thick branches, and a pair of snake eyes were looking in their direction.
Liu Changshi said: "It's just a snake."
Gong Cheng said: "Snakes can't understand human words."
The snake in front of me can understand, and it is not a snake.
The other party is an individual.
Gong Cheng asked the python quietly: "How much did you hear?"
The boa constrictor raised its head, but the snake was hesitant and actually spoke human words.
“Do you know Mama?”
"Daddy Mama, please tell me the truth, or I will kill you for making snake stew!" Liu Changshi was not interested in watching the python that could speak human language. She also didn't know what kind of disease Gong Cheng had and was competing with the python. She lowered her voice and warned Gong Cheng. , "Don't lose big for small things!"
Time is precious now and cannot be delayed.
Gong Cheng’s eyes lit up: “Mama?”
This title is commonly used by the Gongxi people.
The crest of the Gongxi tribe is the snake.
“You have ill intentions towards me.”
The python swam down with agility that was inconsistent with its size.
This python is Gong Xiqiu in the form of a totem.
The brave warrior's strength has reached his level. Using the totem form can better sense the energy of heaven and earth, and practice with half the effort.
He was sleeping comfortably, but was awakened by the sudden breath, and then heard the conversation between the two people, as well as familiar names.
As soon as he moved, the man was aware of his presence.
