With things at this point, how could Zhao Cheng admit that he was responsible for the goods? Besides, he didn't believe that Qiu Ba would dare to kill him.
Although it was uncomfortable to be carried, Zhao Cheng still squeezed out a sneer and said:
“I… don’t… know… know!”
"have no idea?"
Cao Yi's eyes narrowed, he pulled out the sword from his waist with a clang, placed it directly on Zhao Cheng's neck, and shouted:
"Don't you know now!"
Feeling the sharp blade of the Zhanma Dao exuding waves of cold air on his neck, Zhao Cheng couldn't help but swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
But he thought that this was just a way for Cao Yi to scare him and force him to admit it, so even though he was extremely frightened in his heart, he still frowned and said stiffly: "I said I don't know, but I just don't know. !”
"very good……"
Cao Yi nodded, and Zhao Cheng raised a sarcastic smile. Just as he had guessed, the other party was indeed bluffing...
Click!
"ah!!!!"
The sword flashed before his eyes, and before Zhao Cheng had time to put a proud smile on his face, he only felt a pain in his fingers the next moment!
A piece of thumb flew out like this!
Cao Yi actually cut off the thumb of his right hand!
"Ahhhhhh!!!"
The shrill screams echoed in the audience, not caring that he was still in Cao Yi's hands. The county man was holding his right hand with his thumb cut off and wailing desperately.
He never expected that Qiu Ba, Cao Yi, would actually dare to do something to him!
When the people around who were watching the excitement saw this bloody scene, they all opened their eyes and exclaimed in shock!
That was the prefect, and his big finger was chopped off by a soldier like this!
Cao Yi looked coldly at Zhao Cheng who was sitting on the ground holding his hands and wailing. He took out a white handkerchief from his arms and gently wiped the blood off the sword, and then said coldly:
“Since you dare to reach out to something that doesn’t belong to you, then you must be prepared to be killed!
This finger is just the beginning. As long as you don't reveal the whereabouts of the goods, I will cut off one of your fingers every half a stick of incense. After cutting off the fingers, cut off the toes!
I just want to see whether it is you, the dog officer, who is tougher with his mouth, or my sword!
If you can, just hold on until I cut you into a pigeon. Maybe I will let you go then? hehe……"
This last laugh was filled with endless mockery.
In Zhao Cheng's horrified eyes, several soldiers of the Japanese army rushed straight into the Yamen and carried out a table and several stools.
Two soldiers of the Japanese army directly held Zhao Cheng on the left and right, and pressed his right hand, which had a broken thumb, on the table to expose it.
Then he got an incense burner out of nowhere, inserted a fine incense stick directly into the incense burner, and then lit it.
The curl of cigarette rose slowly, and the fine fragrance began to burn slowly and shorten!
And Zhao Cheng stared at the process of the fragrance gradually disappearing, and the fear in his heart continued to increase!
boom! Click!
"Ahhhhhh!!!"
Unknowingly, the effort of half a stick of incense passed in the blink of an eye. Cao Yi stabbed down again without mercy, and Zhao Cheng's index finger was cut off like this!
Cao Yi casually swept the severed fingers on the table to the ground with the sword in his hand. Cao Yi leaned down and looked at Zhao Cheng's fearful eyes and smiled: "Where is the goods?"
Strong pain kept coming from his hand, and Zhao Cheng was panting heavily in pain. Looking at Cao Yi who was so close, he gritted his teeth. The next moment!
Bah... bang! ! ! !
Just as he was about to spit it out, Cao Yi, who had quick eyes and quick hands, directly interrupted his spell casting. A big-eared melon seed came over and made him swallow the saliva that was about to come out.
Standing up straight, shaking his numb palms, Cao Yi sneered: "You still want to vomit me, it seems it's not painful enough."
After that, the next moment!
Click! Phew! Ahhhh! ! !
Another finger was chopped off!
This time it was the middle finger. Now Zhao Cheng only had two fingers left on his right hand.
And this seems to have reached Zhao Cheng's limit.
Wait until the rekindled incense is about to burn halfway through again.
Zhao Cheng, who was on the verge of mental collapse, finally couldn't bear it anymore and wailed: "I said! I said! I said!"
A smile appeared on Cao Yi's face.
Sure enough, how could the will of such people be stronger than his own sword?
I just chopped off three fingers, and I couldn't bear it anymore.
After waving their hands, the two Ping-Japanese soldiers controlling Zhao Cheng stepped aside and let go of Zhao Cheng.
Zhao Cheng collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud, his eyes dull.
Cao Yi snorted coldly and then asked: "Where is the goods?"
Zhao Cheng was still in a daze.
Cao Yi frowned: "It seems you still think you have too many fingers! Someone is here!"
At this time, Zhao Cheng finally reacted, showing a horrified look, and said quickly:
"No! No! I say! I say!
I asked Li Si, the yamen's chief catcher, to take all the goods and destroy them. Li Si told me that they had thrown them all under the cliff, and now I am afraid they have been eaten up by the wild wolves below! "
"What?! Thrown off the cliff!"
Cao Yi's face tightened, and the hand holding the sword in his hand creaked, and a burst of anger surged from his heart in an instant.
This damn dog official actually let people throw all the goods under the cliff!
Damn it! Damn it!
Zhao Cheng seemed to have noticed something was wrong. He turned around and immediately said to the government servant who had just followed him out and was now surrounded by a group of Japanese soldiers:
"It's none of my business, it's none of my business, it's all them! It's all them! They threw the goods under the cliff!"
As soon as he said these words, the expressions of the surrounded police officers immediately changed. The leader Liu Jian's face turned pale.
However, Zhao Cheng's move did successfully redirect Cao Yi's anger. Cao Yi walked slowly towards the direction of the government servants with the knife in his hand. The faces of the government officials tightened immediately. As Cao Yi got closer and closer, they almost collapsed on the ground as if their strength had been drained from their bodies.
Behind Cao Yi, Zhao Cheng suddenly showed an expression of relief when he saw Cao Yi turning his head and walking towards the government officials.
Dead Taoist friends are not dead poor Taoists, it is better for these government servants to die than to die themselves!
However, before he could be happy for long, Cao Yi, who was advancing at the next moment, suddenly turned around and raised his hand to wipe his neck.
The next moment, the knowing Ping Japanese soldiers came from behind Zhao Cheng, who was still immersed in the joy of escaping from death, and violently controlled his head. Then they flashed their swords and wiped his neck with a knife.
Poof!
Red blood spurted out, dyeing the ground under Zhao Cheng's body red in the blink of an eye.
Waiting for the joy in his eyes to subside, Zhao Cheng completely lost consciousness.
Seeing this scene, Cao Yi nodded with satisfaction, turned around and continued walking towards the government officials.
The already extremely nervous government officials saw this scene with their own eyes, and the pressure in their hearts became even greater. The head catcher Liu Jian was even more frightened to the extreme!
Suddenly he shouted like crazy: "It didn't fall! It didn't fall! We lied to him that those goods didn't fall over the cliff. Those goods are still in good condition. They are kept well in my old house in the village. Don't kill me!" Don’t kill me! I can take you to get it! Take you to get it!”
The goods were suddenly recovered, and Cao Yi finally had a smile on his face.
"lead the way!"
