Relying on the fact that he still had a few days left before he was afraid of poisons and insects, Gao pragmatically interrogated the old man alone.
Of course, for safety reasons, Cen Dalu's wolf soldiers first tied the old man tightly with a kind of grass and vine that Gao had never seen before. The grass and vines exuded a very pleasant medicinal fragrance, which made Gao Jingshi even want to ask how it was made. However, considering that this might be the secret technique passed down by Cen Dalu and his family, Gao Jingshi finally held back. .
There were only two people left in the empty cell, Gao Jingshi and the old man. Gao Jingshi sat down on the chair that the jailer brought specially for him, crossed his legs and said, "If you have anything to explain, just tell me."
Unexpectedly, the old man not only did not take the initiative to confess and seek leniency, but also asked questions. He asked very solemnly: "You... I mean, how come the patrol officer has phoenix eyes?"
Gao Pragmatic was stunned and said to himself: What are the phoenix eyes? My eyes are very normal, and they don’t look like red phoenix eyes. Could it be that he was talking about the red spots under the eyelids that Huang Zhiting mentioned before?
Although he couldn't figure out what the "Phoenix Eyes" the old man meant, he probably had something to do with Miss Ah Li, so he simply said directly: "Do you know Ah Li?"
The old man was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of his head: "Are you talking about... Ambassador Shen Li and Shen Feng?"
Why is it related to "Feng" again?
Gao pragmatic frowned and said, "Her name is indeed Shen Li, but I don't know who Shen Fengshi is. I call her Miss A Li."
The old man hurriedly asked: "That's right, she...she gave you the phoenix eyes?"
"You mean the red pill?" Gao Pingshi frowned and said, "She gave me a bowl of insect-avoiding soup and put a red pill in it. If that's the Phoenix Eye you're talking about, then Even if I eat it.”
After hearing this, the old man felt like a snake with its backbone removed, and suddenly fell softly against the wall, his face turned pale, and he murmured: "It's over, it's over..."
Gao pragmatically said: "What are you afraid of? Does she know that you have done something to me, so she insists on killing you? But you dare to bewitch me, the patrolman of Guangxi, on the spot, don't you have the consciousness to endure torture? ?”
"Torture?" The old man regained a little vitality and sneered: "You Han people dare to call it torture with the methods you Han people have?"
"Oh?" Gao Pingshi also laughed: "Don't sit back and watch the sky, let alone the methods of Beizhen Fusi and Dongchang. Even the jailer under the Guangxi Ancha Division knows many methods."
The old man was so disdainful that he didn't even bother to answer.
Gao pragmatic frowned and said: "Why did Miss Ah Li torture you?" He thought to himself: Although Miss Ah Li is very powerful in using poison, judging from her tone, she seems to prefer using poison as medicine rather than poison. , maybe she doesn’t know how to torture at all.
The old man was dismissive of Gao Pragmatic, but when he heard about Ah Li, he couldn't help but tremble a little. He swallowed a mouthful of spit and said in a solemn tone: "Shen Fengshi is the great grandmother, and Fengshi means she was transformed into a phoenix. Eye, the Supreme Grandmother means that she has been determined to be the next Grass Ghost Grandmother... The pill you took is originally called Phoenix Pill. It is said to be one of the medicines needed to practice Phoenix Eyes, so it is also used by the Yao people. Call it Phoenix Eyes.
Phoenix Eye is the foundation for the Grass Ghost Grandmother to control thousands of Gu. After it is mastered, all Gu will bow its head. Therefore, as the medicine for training the Phoenix Eye, the Phoenix Pill is also extremely precious. It is the Tianchang Gong and Tianlian Gongdu of each Yao village. It’s rare to see one, let alone eat one. Anyone who can be rewarded with taking the Phoenix Pill will be regarded as a noble person who has been blessed by the Grandmother or the Venerable. If anyone dares to use poison on such a noble person, he will be regarded as challenging the Grandmother or the Venerable. His dignity will definitely be held accountable by the grandmother and the venerable. "
Gao Pinggong said sincerely: It turns out that Miss Ali's cinnabar-like pupils are called phoenix eyes, and they are so powerful. But why does it have to be called Phoenix? Because the phoenix is red, or is the phoenix not afraid of poison? Hey, yes, the phoenix is the king of birds. Birds should not be afraid of insects. Is this the extended meaning?
However, Gao Pragmatic did not intend to research the folk culture of the Yao people. He was concerned about why the old man came to assassinate him.
After Gao pragmatically asked, the old man hesitated for a moment, maybe because Ah Li put too much pressure on him, and finally answered: "It was the subordinates of Duke Liang of the Anan Dynasty who asked me to assassinate Zhang Ren and you."
Gao Jingshi was stunned for a moment and asked: "Li Chao? Not Mo Chao? Also, was Zhang Futai also poisoned by you?"
The old man was only afraid of Ah Li, but not afraid of being pragmatic, and nodded coldly.
Gao Jingshi exhaled a breath and suddenly laughed again: "Then you will have great fun. I have asked someone to remove the poison on Zhang Futai, and the person who removed the poison is very coincidental - she is also Miss A Li. .”
The old man's face immediately turned pale, and big beads of sweat fell down his cheeks. Gao Pingshi couldn't help but be a little curious, secretly thinking: Could it be that Miss Ali really knows some particularly cruel torture, and she can kill this person just by virtue of her reputation? The old man who didn't even care was so scared that he looked like this?
He laughed again and said: "But don't worry too much. As long as I don't tell, Ah Li won't know. Besides, Ah Li has a very good relationship with me. Even if she knows, as long as I intercede for you, she won't know." I won’t give you face.”
Um? Gao Mou, can you be more shameless?
But the old man didn't know that Gao Jingshi's words were pure nonsense. He only knew that Gao Jingshi had eaten the Phoenix Pill and could ask Shen Feng to rescue Zhang Ren, who should have been dead long ago. Then he and Shen If the relationship between Feng and the envoys is good, why should there be any doubt? Isn’t this obvious?
"What do you want me to do?"
It seemed that no matter who he was, even those who were not afraid of death would still be afraid, and the old man's fear was obviously that girl A Li who looked a little cold but was actually not scary.
Gao pragmatically found the old man's sore leg and immediately became happy, but he still asked Gao Zhang about the poisonous injury first.
The old man said: "That is the scrub typhus I fed with the leftover ingredients when refining the Yin Snake Gu. It is not much more toxic than ordinary scrub typhus, but it attacks very quickly. It is my self-defense. But your servant is lucky. Okay, Cen Dalu’s fellow should have given him Tianzhou Cen’s antidote pill, if your servant takes it in time, nothing will happen to him.”
Gao Pangshi felt relieved and finally got down to business, saying seriously: "I want you to testify and confess that your purpose today is to kill all the big chieftains from the Benjian and Cenhuang families and poison them all."
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly cursed: "Are you crazy? You want to kill all the toasts in western and southern Guangxi? You dare to say that! Many of them have family traditions of preventing poisonous insects and even poisonous insects. Even if they can only I can't just kill some of them if I want to defend them!
And you think the poison is just licorice in the medicine shop, and you can just get a few bundles? I have been raising Gu for so many years, and it is very convenient to kill three or five people, but today there are at least dozens of toasts there. I am not Shen Fengshi, how can I kill them all in one fell swoop? "
Gao Pragmatic waved his hand and said: "You don't have to worry about whether you can + or not. You don't have to ask others whether they believe it or not. You just have to say so. In addition, you can't say that you were sent by the Li Dynasty yet. You have to say that you were sent by the Mo Dynasty." of."
The old man opened his mouth to curse at first, but suddenly he was stunned: "Why did you say 'now'?"
Gao pragmatic laughed: "You are quite meticulous, but it doesn't hurt to tell you, because I don't want to cause trouble for Li Chao yet, but I really want to cause trouble for Mo Chao, so I have to ask you for a favor. . As long as you confess and cooperate as I say, I promise not to hand you over to Ah Li, how about that?"
The old man rolled his eyes slyly, stared at Gao Pangshi and asked, "Do you promise?"
Gao pragmatically spread his hands: "Does it matter to me whether you die or how you die?"
"Okay, I'll do as you say!"
Gao Pingshi smiled slightly and said, "It's a deal."
