Cheng Yang stopped and turned around to ask her, "What's wrong?"
Qing Lingyi frowned, "Something's wrong. The smell of blood is too strong."
After her reminder, Cheng Yang also felt something strange.
He faced the entrance, held Qing Lingyi's forearm with his backhand, and protected her behind him, "Yeah, follow me closely."
The interior of the house has very ordinary furnishings. There are steps going down in the southeast corner, and there is a unique cave inside.
At this time, there was deathly silence underground.
Step by step, when I stepped off the last step, there was a sudden sound of breaking wind, and an arrow was shot!
Cheng Yang reacted quickly and dodged sideways with Qing Lingyi.
Before he could stand still, two men in black approached with knives, and there were also three men on the right with murderous intent.
"It'll be ready soon."
Cheng Yang said in a deep voice and let go of Qing Lingyi's hand.
His figure swept out.
Qing Lingyi saw with her own eyes that he easily avoided the tip of the knife and hit the face of the man in black with an uppercut, beating his entire face until it was deformed. He then knocked him several feet away with his remaining strength, leaving blood flowing across the face and making him unable to move.
True path.
But it’s also really reliable.
She breathed a sigh of relief and looked around Xizhou.
In the open area in the middle, there were obvious signs of fighting. There were corpses lying on the ground, some in black clothes and some guarded by the general's palace. The strong smell of blood emanated from them.
This should be a place used for interrogation, with various torture instruments lined up, stained with blood and hair.
There is also a huanghuali armchair and a matching huanghuali rectangular table. There is a bow on the case, which looks familiar.
"Boom!"
There was a thud.
There are separate cells on the east and west sides, some of which have open doors.
Along with the sound, a man in black fell out of one of the rooms.
Immediately afterwards, a dirty and scarred man stumbled out of the cell and shouted: "Cheng Yang!"
Cheng Yang dealt with another man in black, his expression a little impatient, "Jiang Meng, what are you doing again?"
Jiang Meng tried his best: "Save me!"
Cheng Yang looked sideways.
The man in black got up from the ground, muttered something, pushed Jiang Meng to the ground, and raised the knife.
In desperation, Jiang Meng issued a warning: "If I die, you will never know those secrets in this life! You..."
"call out!"
An arrow flew and hit the man in black right in the heart.
This was the one that attacked Cheng Yang just now. It had excellent accuracy and penetrated deeply. A small half of the arrowhead even came out from the back of the man in black.
Jiang Meng gasped, shocked.
Cheng Yang raised his eyebrows and said yes!
Qing Lingyi put down his bow and said: "Since I have saved you, remember to tell the secret."
The man in black fell to the ground suddenly, Jiang Meng got up and looked at her.
"This is my wife. If you dare to look around, I will gouge your eyes!"
Cheng Yang warned fiercely, and at the same time, he pinched the neck of the last man in black who fired the cold arrow and threw him to the ground.
His eyes were sinister as he asked, "Who is instructing you?"
The man in black did not struggle. He turned his head and glanced at Qing Lingyi. He made two grunts from the bottom of his throat, as if he said something.
His expression was solemn, as if he had been relieved.
"He wants to bite his tongue!" Qing Lingyi said.
Cheng Yang clamped his mouth.
But it was still half a step too late. The man in black had bitten off half of the root, blood continued to gush out, and his body collapsed weakly.
Cheng Yang frowned, let go and stood up.
"They are not from Jiang Zhao, nor are they from Uncle Hu Ping." Jiang Meng spoke slowly, his voice showing exhaustion and weakness.
"You know it again?" Cheng Yang sneered.
"But they want to kill me." Jiang Meng said again.
"So you are the bad guy," Cheng Yang sneered, "you killed several of my brothers."
Jiang Meng's lip lines were tight, showing a look of pain.
Qing Lingyi put the bow back on the case and said: "But no matter what, they are here for the secrets you know."
Jiang Meng looked over.
"You want to live, just because you don't want to go to the grave with secrets. In other words, deep down in your heart, you feel ashamed to have a family and to be a general. Maybe you can make up for your mistakes with the secrets you know. I'm right, right? ?" Qing Lingyi made a bold guess because of the scene just now.
Jiang Meng's eyes paused on her face for a moment, and he answered the question inappropriately, "You are General Qing's only daughter."
Cheng Yang didn't like hearing this and wanted to go up and kick him.
Qing Lingyi saw his intention, grabbed his sleeve and stopped him with her eyes.
She replied: "I am. My name is Qing Lingyi."
"Miss Qing——" Jiang Meng called out and stopped.
He couldn't stand any longer.
After being hungry for many days and enduring severe torture yesterday, Cheng Yang really hated him and showed no mercy at all.
Therefore, his body was in pieces and on the verge of collapse.
He held on to the wall and interjected: "If you don't mind, I'll sit down and speak slowly."
"I don't mind." Qing Lingyi said softly.
Jiang Meng slid to the ground.
He looked a little embarrassed, leaned against the wall, and said, "Actually, I have some doubts about whether these men in black are your arrangement."
"It's not me," Qing Lingyi said, "I won't kill anyone in the General's Mansion just to trick you."
She pointed to the corpses on the ground and said, "They all died innocently."
Jiang Meng's eyes moved over, "Yes. An innocent person died in vain."
a long time.
He was not in a hurry to say anything, and Qing Lingyi was not in a hurry to ask.
Cheng Yang was a little irritable waiting, and he was filled with boundless murderous aura.
But in his sleeves, Qing Lingyi's fingers came over and hooked him.
Cheng Yang suddenly fell silent and turned to look at her.
"Let's go there too." Qing Lingyi moved her lips and her voice was very soft.
"do you want?"
"Yeah." Qing Lingyi learned interrogation techniques from her mother's side. For example, closing the distance can lower the other party's defense.
"Then go." Cheng Yang relied on her.
Opposite Jiang Meng, Qing Lingyi sat on the ground without caring about the blood.
Cheng Yang also sat next to her obediently.
After staring at the two of them for a while, Jiang Meng twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled happily: "In the past, General Cheng often told me about General Qing's daughter."
Qing Lingyi was slightly surprised.
Cheng Yang felt guilty.
Because Qing Lingyi was still very young at the time, even though he only praised her for her beauty and called her a crybaby in private, she still felt that he was like a pervert.
So, he kicked Jiang Meng, "Who the hell asked you this?"
Jiang Meng coughed and said, "I thought your wife would want to know."
Cheng Yang has a fierce look, but Qing Lingyi is gentle and gentle, saying in a good voice: "Actually, I want to know the secret you hide."
"It's a secret."
Jiang Meng looked at her, "There are quite a few. Where to start?"
Qing Lingyi's thoughts turned around and suddenly asked: "You said just now that these men in black were not sent by Jiang Zhao or Hu Pingbo. Why, was Hu Pingbo also involved in the conspiracy to frame Cheng Jiajun? "
