In the cell, Yun Que saw two remnants of the Red Lotus Sect.
They were two men, one older and the other younger. Both had been tortured to the point of dying.
Yun Que asked, but the other party could only grunt twice.
I asked the jailer in charge of the punishment, but found nothing. The two men were very tough-talking and refused to say anything.
After leaving the cell, Yun Que ordered the jailer to suspend the torture, and called the doctor in the sky prison to treat the two men's injuries.
These two living beings are still useful and cannot be killed just like that.
It’s okay to be tough.
Yun Que had a way to get the two of them to talk.
However, a middleman is needed to play the role of a Red Lotus cultist and make the two believe that the other party is one of their own, and they will naturally find out the information.
Yun Que has already shown up and holds an official position, so he is not suitable to play the role of a Red Lotus sect member.
Yun Que felt that the most suitable candidate was the blind man from Heifeng Village.
The blind man is good at disguise, and he is even better at finding out information. He found out the identity of Beard from Bashan City in less than half a month, which shows how powerful he is. He is a natural scout.
The blind man was a talented man, but unfortunately he was killed in a battle with Hong He, the Fire Candle Messenger.
Yun Que didn't think that Blind Chang Wei and Lord Pingshan could still survive in the hands of a sixth-grade expert.
Walking in the dark passage of Tianlao, Yun Que thought about the candidate for the undercover agent.
When passing by Amei's cell, I stopped and took a look, and found that Amei was still curled up in the corner, seemingly motionless.
After hearing the footsteps, Amei raised her head and looked outside, her eyes a little brighter.
"What would you like to eat today?" Yun Que asked.
The other party didn't answer or said a word.
"Don't you have an appetite? Then you can eat whatever I want."
Yun Que said it confidently.
Anyway, he was eating at the Criminal Department, and after finishing his meal, he just happened to bring back a portion for Amei.
It’s not just that you eat what I eat.
Seeing that Amei's condition had improved a lot, Yun Que left.
Not far away, he stopped again.
Turning his head to look, Shi Shi in the cell next door was smiling sarcastically, nodding and bowing.
Yun Que's eyes lit up when he saw the stone.
We have a candidate!
Opening the cell door, Yun Que sat on the wooden bed opposite the stone and said with a smile:
"How is your stay? Is it comfortable in the prison?"
"Boss is joking, it's dark here, how can you feel comfortable." Shitou said with a smile on his face: "Congratulations, boss, on your promotion! From now on, boss will definitely be promoted steadily and prosper! When I go out, I will treat boss to a good meal!"
"Don't come here to get too close. I've seen your case. You hurt someone every three days. You come in and are locked up for a year and a half before being released. It's too lenient for a habitual criminal like you."
Yun Que said with a sullen face: "There is no need for severe punishment. The prisoner will not speak. No heavy punishment will be imposed. The gangster will not change despite repeated admonitions. I plan to imprison you for thirty years at a time. Only in this way can I deter young people like you. If you go out, you will not be able to change your mind." Don’t dare commit another crime.”
When Shitou heard that it was thirty years ago, his expression suddenly changed. He hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy, kowtowed repeatedly and said:
"Sir, please forgive me! I won't dare to do anything anymore. I will wash my hands in a golden basin when I get out, and I will never dare to do evil again! If I really have to be imprisoned for thirty years, I will die in jail!"
It’s okay to be locked up for a year and a half, just hang out and then go out.
But once he is imprisoned for thirty years, Shitou will be an old man when he is released. Let alone continue to be his accountant and collect accounts, I am afraid he will not have the energy to even beg.
Shitou was frightened, and he didn't understand why Yun Que wanted to operate on him.
He thought back quickly and felt that he had not offended this person.
"It's okay if you don't want to be imprisoned for so long. If you do something for me, if you do it well, not only will you not have to serve thirty years in prison, you will be able to get out in a few days."
Yun Que, the old god, is here.
This was Yun Que's first experience with official prestige, to put it simply.
So damn useful!
Shitou suddenly understood and swore quickly:
"Your Majesty, please give me your orders! I will never blink an eye at the sea of swords and fire! Take a step back, I am a son of a bitch!"
"This matter is not very dangerous. As long as you are smart, you will be safe."
Yun Duan nodded and said: "I am not only the executioner and in charge of the Tianlao, but also the prince accompanying the prince when he walks in the East Palace. I also have a lot of debts outside that I cannot collect, and I just need a bookkeeper to help me take care of the accounts."
Shitou understood as soon as he heard this that this person was trying to teach him. How could a gangster still not understand? He hurriedly knelt down and said:
"Sir, tell me what you want me to do. As long as it's not a crime of losing your head, I, Stone, will definitely help you do it!"
Seeing that it was almost done, Yun Que directly revealed the purpose of letting Shitou sneak into the Red Lotus Sect to spy on the news. He would start with the two Red Lotus Sect members in the prison.
"The Red Lotus Sect... I seem to have heard of it. It is a very low-key sect that mostly appears in remote towns. The specific situation is not clear. Don't worry, sir, this matter will be taken care of by me!" Shitou said confidently.
Yun Que told Shi Shi the slogan of the Red Lotus Sect, gave him a red candle and a fire seal, and finally ordered someone to find some blood and smear it on Shi Shi.
The most indispensable thing in the sky prison is blood. After the disguise, the stone became pitiful, as if it had been tortured.
"It's not that bad, close your eyes." Yun Que said.
Shitou closed his eyes subconsciously, and then was punched in the face by Yun Que, causing blood to flow from his nose and mouth.
The stone was beaten and spun around three times. It took him a while to regain his composure, and was then put into the cell of two Red Lotus cultists.
In the afternoon, Yun Que went to Shangguan Hongtu, the minister, and told him all about his plans.
In Yun Que's plan, if Shitou succeeds in gaining the trust of the two Red Lotus cultists, he may get some clues, but they will definitely not be too important. Then the next step is to continue to fish for the big fish and create an accident. He deliberately let go of the followers of the Red Lotus Sect and let Shitou escape with them.
In this way, Shitou will have a chance to truly penetrate the Red Lotus Sect and find important clues about the Red Lotus Sect.
After hearing Yun Que's plan, Shangguan Hongtu's eyes brightened slightly, he nodded and praised:
"Let the snake return to the mountain to look for traces of the dragon, and catch the golden turtle with a hook of fragrant bait. What a good strategy!"
Shangguan Hongtu looked at Yun Que again, his eyes a little more solemn.
Before, he only thought that Yun Que was able to reach the fifth rank official position in one fell swoop because of Princess Lingyun's favor. After all, just the merit of escorting Princess Lingyun was enough to be promoted to an official position.
Shangguan Hongtu always believed that Yun Que was a young boy, and it would take many years to gain a foothold in the Ministry of Justice.
But now, Shangguan Hongtu discovered that the young man in front of him was by no means an ordinary person. His intelligence was not inferior to that of the Gonggun princes in the court, and it was definitely a sign of a sleeping dragon and a phoenix.
Shangguan Hongtu has been an official for many years and has a sharp eye. He can see that the fifth-grade official position is definitely not the end of Yun Que. I'm afraid it won't be long before someone can climb over him.
"Your Majesty, that's ridiculous. I just learned more from your teachings."
After Yun Que said modestly, he said: "If the plan can succeed, it is necessary to let the prisoners of the Red Lotus Sect go. Sir, do you think it is feasible?"
With Yun Que's current official position, he has no right to release repeat offenders from the Tianjian Prison without permission. He needs to ask his superiors for instructions.
Shangguan Hongtu pondered for a moment and said:
"They are just two half-dead remnants of the Red Lotus. They can be put to good use. You have full control over this matter. If you really catch a big fish, I will personally ask your Majesty for the credit."
With the endorsement of the minister, Yun Que could finally put his punches to the test.
the other side.
After Shitou was imprisoned in the new cell, he saw two half-dead guys, their skin torn and bloody.
Fortunately, the wound medicine had just been applied and the bleeding had stopped. However, the two men were injured too seriously and could not get up for a while. They just opened their eyes and looked at the stone, but no one spoke.
Shitou knew that this was his surrender and he had to make good use of it, so he followed Yun Que's instructions and sat in the corner rubbing his face without talking to the other party.
Yun Que's punch was not light, and Shitou still feels like his head is buzzing.
It calmed down for a long time, and when night fell, Shi Shi hid in the corner sneakily, lit the red candle with a fire stick, muttered in his mouth, and said in a very small voice, "The red candle will never burn out, and the lotus platform will last forever." Character.
It was very quiet in the sky prison. The two Red Lotus cultists vaguely heard Shitou's slogans, so they looked at each other in surprise.
The young one spoke first, with a weak voice: "Hey, what are you doing?"
"Oh, it's nothing. I'm paying homage to my ancestors. I'll blow it out now so I won't disturb your rest." Shitou pretended to be panicked and extinguished the candle and put away half of the red candle again.
There was another moment of silence.
The older Red Lotus cultist suddenly said: "The red candle will never go out!"
"The lotus platform lasts forever!" Shitou followed up with the rest of the sentence, and then said in surprise: "You too..."
Just as the young believer was about to admit it, he was held down by the older believer. The man smiled weakly and said:
"We also sell candles. Your red candles are pretty good and should not be cheap."
After saying this, the two believers stopped saying anything and closed their eyes to rest. However, the young believer was obviously a little restless, turning around uneasily, as if he was holding something in his mind.
Shitou stopped talking and found a place to sleep.
Yun Que, who was hiding in the dark, saw this scene clearly.
Yun Que smiled coldly and ordered Li Shu who was following him:
"The old Red Lotus cultist can be dealt with. Come up with a good excuse and don't let the other one get suspicious."
Li Shu knew Yun Que's plan and immediately understood it, saying, "I understand, that old guy won't be able to see the sun tomorrow."
The remnants of the Red Lotus Sect are all guilty of death. Since they can't get a confession, the Ministry of Punishments has the final say on when to kill them, and no one will care.
After making arrangements, Yun Que returned to the academy.
Shitou's mission couldn't be completed in a day or two. Yun Que was not in a hurry anyway, and he didn't have much hope. It was just an attempt.
When I arrived at the west building, I saw a room on the third floor with lights on.
Since Mr. Mo was here, Yun Que happened to go ask for advice on how to practice corpse refining.
Mr. Mo was in a good mood today and patiently guided Yun Que for half the night.
Yun Que finally had some idea about the corpse refining technique.
Although I still can't fix it, I finally found a way.
Before leaving, Yun Que asked a question that he was more concerned about.
"If you master the corpse refining technique and refine a suitable corpse to be a clone, how can you transform the clone's appearance into the same as yours?"
When Mr. Mo heard this, he snorted disdainfully and said:
"Changing one's appearance is the simplest. You can do it with the disguise technique, or you can use the puppet method to transform it. The Puppet Hall specializes in teaching those kinds of tricks. You can learn the puppet technique at will."
Yun Que heard it funny.
Mr. Mo, a living ghost like Mr. who only refines corpses or plays with corpses, actually has the nerve to accuse others of being biased.
The next day, before Yun Que could go out, Fang Shi came over.
I have nothing else to do but sell Yun Que a nourishing elixir.
It is said to be a must-have item for masters, and it is of great help to monks of all sects. After being taken by warriors, it can cleanse the meridians of the whole body and nourish the soul. One pill costs three thousand taels of tattoo silver.
Yun Que had heard about it and knew that the Yangyuan Pill was very expensive, almost a must-have for seventh-level martial artists, and that it needed to be taken in large quantities to achieve the best effect.
Unfortunately, it is too expensive, and Yun Que is reluctant to buy it now.
Although he had the 10,000 taels rewarded by the emperor, after reaching the seventh rank, Yun Que had to spend money sparingly.
Returning to the Punishment Department, I learned that the older member of the Red Lotus Sect had died. The cause of death was that when the jailer was delivering dinner, he spilled the food and was beaten violently by the jailer before he died.
Yun Que knew the jailer's tricks very well.
He can be beaten to bruises all over his body but his muscles and bones are not damaged. On the surface, the injuries may appear to be severe, but in fact they are just skin injuries. He can also be hit with a few heavy blows and appear to be unscathed, but in fact he is either dead or maimed.
Stone didn't make much progress, and he could only speak a few words to the young Red Lotus cultist from time to time.
During the day, Yun Que practiced martial arts in the Punishment Department and continued to refine his body. At night, he returned to the Academy to seek advice from Mr. Mo on the corpse refining technique.
Two days passed like this.
Yun Que was unhappy.
Because Yin Tao hasn't come to redeem Mo Yu's finger ring yet!
After asking around, I found that the other party had not come to the academy at all in the past two days.
"What a prince, Prince Yu. If you want to default on your debt, you don't have the ability to do so in my family!"
Who is Yun Que?
He has been slaying monsters all year round for a living, and killing every day is his companion. How can he get used to others?
Since the other party won't pay back the money, then sell the ring.
First, he went to ask if the house stone should be collected. The other party shook his head like a rattle. He knew what happened and naturally refused to wade into the muddy water.
If the house stones are not collected, there are many pawnshops in Tianqi City.
Yun Que put the Moyu finger ring in his left hand and strode out of the academy. When he turned the corner, he saw a strange maid standing on the roadside. She looked at herself, especially her left hand.
Yun Que didn't recognize the other party and didn't care. Just as he was about to go find the pawn shop, the other party actually caught up with him.
"Young master, stay here, my lady is here to invite you!"
