Xi Shang looked pale: "Mr. Liu, you can't talk nonsense. How can this be a corpse?"
"Then open it and let me see."
Just as Liu Yijin walked forward, Xishang's expression suddenly changed and he took a step back: "Liu Yijin, this is our Yihongyuan's private matter, you'd better not interfere!"
Liu Yijin's eyes narrowed slightly: "But I want to see what's inside."
"Sir, the things inside here belong to our Yihongyuan, not the corpses you mentioned."
After speaking, Xishang turned around, struggled to lift the sack and threw it down the mountain.
Two figures stood directly in front of him. One of the wolf guards beat Xishang out with one palm, while the other Kankan blocked the sack.
Xishang roared and rushed forward, but was stopped by the wolf guard.
When Liu Yijin walked to the sack, a stench hit his face.
"Open!"
When a wolf guard cut the rope with a knife, he saw some rotting corpses inside and a child with empty eyes. Even the wolf guard couldn't help but be shocked when he saw that scene.
Liu Yijin just glanced at it and couldn't help but retched: "Xishang, you deserve to die!"
...
Torture instruments were used on Xi Shang one after another, and pitiful screams were heard immediately.
The big man took out the red-hot iron block from the charcoal fire and made several gestures in front of Xi Shang: "I advise you to tell everything, otherwise the red iron will fall on your face."
"Liu Yijin!" Xishang roared angrily: "My eldest brother is Xikun, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. You dare to lynch me. Aren't you afraid that my eldest brother will know?"
"I'm just waiting for Master Shangshu to greet me now. I'd like to hear if he would kill you himself if he knew you killed so many children."
"I don't!" Xishang's face turned pale: "I don't know, I have no idea what's in this bag."
Liu Yijin's expression was cold: "How many children are buried under Yihongyuan?"
"Who is your accomplice!"
"I don't know, I don't know anything." Xishang struggled wildly: "Liu Yijin, you'd better let me go, otherwise I, Xishang, will never be done with you!"
"You still speak harshly when you are about to die!" Liu Yijin waved his hand, and the big man next to him directly took the soldering iron and pressed it hard on Xishang's chest.
Amid the shrill screams, Liu Yijin said with cold eyes: "You'd better tell the truth honestly, otherwise, you will not only suffer physical pain."
Seeing Xi Shang's desperate state, Liu Yijin's heart did not waver at all. For such a person, even if he was killed, he would not be able to repay the lives of more than a hundred children.
As the soldering iron went down again and again, Xishang fainted from the pain.
After pouring a basin of ice water on him to wake him up, Liu Yijin said coldly: "Xishang, if you know what's going on, tell me."
"I, I don't know."
Liu Yijin didn't expect Xishang's mouth to be so strict. He sneered and said: "In this case, we can only seal up Yihongyuan. I will dig three feet into the ground and find the other corpses."
Liu Yijin stood up and walked out. Unexpectedly, Xi Shang suddenly started to tremble all over. His eyes turned scarlet and his face was covered with terrifying bloody lines.
"No, save him quickly!"
Several men hurriedly stepped forward and opened Xishang's mouth, only to find that the other man was already dead.
"My lord, he has taken poison."
This sudden change caught Liu Yijin off guard. He did not expect that Xishang would be so stubborn and would risk his life to protect the people behind him.
But if this matter has something to do with the guarding eunuch Liu Chang, can Liu Chang be so protected by Xi Shang? Or is there something that Xishang has in Liu Chang's hands? Even if he dies, he won't be able to tell Liu Chang.
This makes Liu Yijin a little incredible.
"Sir, what should we do now?"
Liu Yijin looked at Zhang Liang and Yu Jiang who were helpless and said, "What else can we do? The arrow is on the string and we have to shoot."
"The most important thing is that as long as we can dig up the body in Yihongyuan, Xishang's crime will be confirmed."
A group of wolf guards surrounded Yihongyuan in a mighty manner. This scene frightened passers-by.
Something happened in Yihongyuan some time ago, and a large number of people inside were arrested. Now there are new problems in Yihongyuan, which makes everyone even more nervous. Those patrons who often interact with Yihongyuan, Even more people are speculating on the true purpose of the Wolf Guard.
A group of wolf guards turned the entire Yihongyuan upside down, and finally dug up a body in a corner of the warehouse.
This scene made the entire county go crazy.
For a moment, there were different opinions.
This news reached Liu Chang's ears, and the latter's face was solemn: "How did Liu Yijin find out about this matter?"
Mengyao sat aside with twinkling eyes.
"Mengyao, go find Liu Yijin."
Mengyao was shocked, "What do you mean, sir?"
Liu Chang chuckled and said, "No one can refuse your charm. As long as you can make Liu Yijin your guest, all problems will be solved."
"This is our most important thing right now. For our sake, to keep us safe, I need you to do this."
Mengyao was shocked and looked at Liu Chang in disbelief: "Sir, I, I don't want to do such a thing again."
Liu Chang smiled and said: "My dear Mengyao, I promise this is the last time. As long as we get through this difficulty, we can sit back and relax in the future."
After saying that, Liu Chang just held Mengyao in his arms: "Mengyao, be obedient, okay?"
"No, sir, I really don't want to do this anymore. I don't like to serve different men. Can we get out of here?"
"Leave?" Liu Chang looked ferocious: "As long as we leave now, Liu Yijin will definitely doubt us. Do you want me to live a life of escape from now on?"
Mengyao shook her head and said: "No, I have a way to make all this disappear without a trace, and we have enough time to deal with the corpses under the Buddhist hall. As long as you listen to me, we can leave here without worries, and Make sure no one notices it."
Mengyao held Liu Chang's hand tightly and said, "Sir, the money we earn now is enough for our expenses, and we won't even have to worry about it for the rest of our lives. What are you still worried about?"
Looking at Mengyao's eager eyes, Liu Chang looked slightly dazed, then shook his head and said: "Mengyao, I have been sitting in this guarding position for three years. Next year, the prime minister will find a way to transfer me to the capital, and Don’t forget, I am also one of the four protectors of Maitreya Buddhism.”
"If I leave, everything we have run will be gone, and all the hard work we have done will be in vain."
"Besides, my condition has improved now, and Trouble will make you happy just like a man. Don't you like it?"
Looking at Liu Chang's expression, Mengyao smiled miserably for no reason: "I like it, of course I do."
"So, how about going again?"
Mengyao suppressed the nausea in her heart, but with a smile on her face, she said: "Sir, even if I go, can I still enter their house? You have to know that he has a third wife in his house. "
Liu Chang stared straight at Mengyao; "Then you trick Liu Yijin into coming here, and I will wait for you here."
Mengyao's expression changed: "Then how can I say it's appropriate?"
Liu Chang pondered for a moment and said with stern eyes: "Just tell the truth."
...
At the Sheriff's Mansion, Liu Yijin looked at Mengyao who walked in with a surprised look on his face: "Madam, what are you doing?"
Mengyao smiled faintly: "I know you should be surprised by my arrival."
"That's quite a bit."
Mengyao walked towards the inside without thinking: "This is my first time coming to the Sheriff's Mansion. Why don't you show me around?"
Liu Yijin followed behind in confusion: "What is the purpose of Madam coming here this time?"
"Of course I'm here for your safety."
Liu Yijin looked at Mengyao in confusion: "Where did Madam start talking about this?"
Mengyao smiled and said, "Aren't you solving the child theft case? I'm here to provide clues."
Liu Yijin looked directly at Mengyao: "What do you mean, madam?"
"I want to report Liu Chang, the eunuch of Qingfeng County, who together with Xi Shang killed children, and also cruelly ate certain parts in order to rejuvenate the body."
Mengyao's words made Liu Yijin's heart beat wildly: "Madam, do you know what your words mean?"
"Of course I know, and I can also tell where the bodies are hidden."
Mengyao's words immediately shocked Liu Yijin. He did not expect that Mengyao would suddenly tell him such a thing at this time.
Was there something wrong with Liu Chang, or was this woman Mengyao aware of something?
Regarding Mengyao, Liu Yijin was extremely worried. A girl was full of evil thoughts, and he should carefully screen every word she said.
But Mengyao didn't give him any chance to think, and said directly: "The children Liu Chang killed were all buried under the Buddhist hall."
Liu Yijin took a breath: "Is what Madam said true?"
"It's absolutely true." Mengyao said: "This matter was done by Liu Chang and Xi Shang. The first body was buried under Yihong Courtyard. Finally, Xi Shang was afraid and let Liu Chang bury him in the back garden. A Buddhist temple was built to suppress the corpses.”
Liu Yijin looked straight at Mengyao and said, "Is what Madam said true?"
Mengyao nodded: "It's absolutely true. Your Excellency, you can go over and seal the town's mansion now. If Liu Chang notices it later, he will be in trouble if he escapes."
Liu Yijin turned around and called Zhang Liang and Yu Jiang, saying: "Bring all the wolf guards and surround the town guard mansion."
Soldiers and horses surrounded the mansion.
Liu Yijin took advantage of his garrison status to bring over 10,000 soldiers from Qingfeng County.
These soldiers surrounded the entire garrison.
Liu Yijin rushed in with Zhang Liang, Yu Jiang and others, followed closely by Mengyao.
"Madam, just wait outside for now and leave it to me to deal with it."
Mengyao shook her head and said: "Things are not as simple as you think. There are mechanisms here. If you are not careful, you will be in danger."
Mengyao raised her feet and walked in: "Sir, the two of us will go in first."
Liu Yijin hesitated slightly, and just as he was about to walk in, Zhang Liang shouted from behind: "Sir, it's dangerous."
Liu Yijin waved his hand: "You guys wait here first, I'll go in first."
The two walked into the Buddhist hall. There was no one around, except for the faint flames of candles.
"Mengyao, you finally deceived Liu Yijin."
