man sanctified in death row vest

Chapter 23

Ba Lao Liu brought a pot of vegetables to Jiang Gao's justice prison.

This is special treatment.

"Here, eat! If you can go out in the future, don't say that I abused you!"

Scar Lao Liu tried his best to squeeze out a kind smile, and waved to Jiang Gaoyi.

Jiang Gaoyi curled up in a corner and quickly crawled towards the delicious food.

Master Jiang looked up, and saw Scar Six grinning ferociously, his heart trembled.Looking down again, the bowl of food contained fish and meat, soup and cakes. I am wronged! I am wronged! I want justice! I want justice!"

"Break it with a hammer!" Ba Lao Liu laughed and scolded: "Don't worry, Mr. Gao, the superiors have forgotten you here a long time ago, and your head is steady."

"Then...thank you, Master Liu." Jiang Gaoyi had a complicated look on his face and started to eat.

"You should thank Mr. Zheng."

Scar Six pointed to Mr. Zheng in the cell next door, approached him by the way, and asked Mr. Zheng if he needed room service.

Erniang just left not long ago.

Master Zheng is hanging up.

Hearing Scar Lao Liu put this meager credit on himself, Master Zheng just smiled and didn't take advantage of it.

Eating and eating, Jiang Gaoyi paused, staring blankly at the leftovers on the plate, thinking that he would not be able to leave this ghostly place until the year of the monkey.

Ba Lao Liu's voice "You should thank Mr. Zheng" lingered in his ears like a curse, buzzing and echoing.

"Master Hou, are you inquiring about 'White Carp Village'?"

Jiang Gaoyi suddenly raised his head, ignored the food, walked to the edge of the prison, and asked Mr. Zheng in a low voice across the corridor.

Zheng Xiu was slightly taken aback when he heard this.

A few seconds later, Zheng Xiu slapped his forehead, scolding himself for being dark under the lights, and immediately waved to Scar Six, who left depressedly, turned back after three steps, but did not go far: "Sixth brother, please, prepare wine!"

"Prepare wine?"

"Did you drink those two jugs last time?"

"Nope!"

"Can you bear it?"

"I can't help it! But I didn't dare to drink it!" Ba Lao Liu was confident.

"Coincidentally, serve wine! Mr. Zheng wants to have a drink with Mr. Jiang!"

Now the sixth scar is doing things quickly, and he doesn't ask too many questions.

After a while, the low table was on the table, complete with cushions.

Jiang Gaoyi watched helplessly as Scar Lao Liu opened the two prison doors respectively, respectfully begging Mr. Zheng to drop by and enter his prison, and said in a daze, "Why is the world like this?"

Two jugs of good wine and a table of side dishes.

After drinking for three rounds, Mr. Zheng raised his glass frequently to persuade him to drink, Jiang Gaoyi's face turned red, seeing Mr. Zheng as a profiteer, he was quite pleasing to the eye.

General Zheng died fighting for Dagan, and the baby he gave birth to will not be far behind.

"Master Jiang, the White Carp Village does not happen to happen to be on the border of your Yanzhou, does it?"

Mr. Zheng has a deep understanding of the wine table culture, so he took the opportunity to ask.

"Master Hou, why did you think of inquiring about that old murder case?"

Jiang Gaoyi didn't want to call Zheng Xiu "Master Zheng" like Lao Liu and others, and always felt that he was a philistine and out of style.However, it is different to call him "Marquis". Zheng Xiu has the title of "Marquis of Zhonglie" seriously, and he has a close friendship with Zheng Xiu, so he does not lose face.

"Chen Nian, a murder case?" Zheng Xiu was taken aback.

"This matter..." Jiang Gaoyi's expression flickered, hesitating a little, but he still gritted his teeth and asked Zheng Xiu to promise that he would never mention it to a third person, and then slowly told what he knew.

The "White Carp Village" he knew was on the border of Yanzhou and Jingzhou, but it was under the jurisdiction of Yanzhou.

Twenty years ago, at the junction of the two states, there was a small village named Baili Village.

There were a total of 26 families there. The Beiman Rebellion lasted for five full years. The country was depressed, the people's livelihood was bleak, bandits were everywhere, and gangs committed crimes.

And on a certain night, Baili Village was bloodbathed throughout the village. There were 26 households in Baili Village, a total of 49 villagers, and none of them survived.

Today, the ruins of Baili Village are only a lonely tomb in the wilderness, with ruins and walls, and no one cares about it.

If Jiang Gaoyi hadn't been an official in Yanzhou for decades and had taken over the tragedy of exterminating the village, he might not have remembered it.

"20 years ago? 20 years ago? 20 years ago?"

Zheng Xiu patted his thigh.

He was carefully confirming whether the Baili Village was located in a small forest, with steep mountains on one side and straight official roads.

Receiving Jiang Gaoyi's affirmative reply, Zheng Xiu kept his face on the surface and persuaded him to drink again.

"But why can't you mention this to a third party?"

Master Zheng asked again.

Once he said it, Jiang Gaoyi didn't hide it. He said that the tragedy of exterminating the village was not unusual in the world where bandits were at the time.The only strange thing is that this matter was supposed to be recorded by the local Yasi, but not long after, the Shangshu of the Imperial City Criminal Department rode a thousand-mile horse overnight, arrived in Yanzhou, took away the file, quickly closed the case, and even issued a silent order.

Mr. Zheng had a strange expression on his face: "Did it later say that he was the last Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment in the family who died of illness, and the song did not return to Master Qu?"

"It's Qu Bugui, Master Qu."

If the song does not return, it will never return.

Jiang Gaoyi was puzzled and asked why Zheng Xiu would ask about this old matter. Zheng Xiu made nonsense, saying that someone wanted to do business with him, and claimed to be from Baili Village. Zheng Xiu felt that the other party was not a good person, so he sent someone to investigate.Jiang Gaoyi suddenly realized that this reason was reasonable and that Baili Village no longer existed, it must be a misunderstanding.

After drinking for five rounds.

Since Jiang Gaoyi was imprisoned, today is the happiest day in the past three months. He was excited about it. He said that if General Zheng hadn't gone all the way to the northern border, penetrated into the enemy's country, and killed the enemy After all the guts have been broken, the Northern Man Rebellion, which has been stalemate for five years, may not be settled 20 years ago.After that, the external turmoil was pacified, and the world is peaceful today.

Jiang Gaoyi expressed his admiration for General Zheng in his words.

When Zheng Xiu was young, he heard countless people brag about his father's achievements.

But there is an exaggeration in it.

Because it is said that General Zheng led an army of [-] troops into the enemy's formation, all the way to the capital of the northern barbarians.In the end, [-] soldiers died in the battle with General Zheng, and only the military division who did not go to the battlefield survived.

Later, when the military adviser returned to the court, he said that General Zheng had a sudden supernatural power, and the flesh and bones of [-] soldiers were draped around his body like a piece of armor. The blood cloud billowed in the sky, and the blood filled the sky to form a river, pouring down from the sky, pressing down on the opponent's city... Do you listen? It's ridiculous?

Yes, ridiculous.

The whole world finds it ridiculous.

The military adviser who survived was probably stimulated, and after returning to the court, he went crazy, talked nonsense, depressed, and died of hunger strike not long after.

But after the death of General Zheng, the Northern Man surrendered, and everything came to an end. This is a real achievement.But what the military adviser said, most people think it is an exaggeration, or crazy nonsense.

After the death of Zheng's father, he was also posthumously granted the title of Marquis of Zhonglie, and the emperor gave him a plaque, which was hung in the hall of Zheng's family.

Little Zheng Xiu believed it at first.

After he awakened the memory of his previous life, he called out that time came and went, and it was connected to the account, so he dug Zheng's house three feet into the ground, trying to find some secrets of exercises.

In the end, of course, I couldn't find it.

Little Zheng Xiu just died of the idea of ​​cheating into the account.

……

Zheng's winery brews all real materials, double-steamed in the ancient method, high-purity without water.After drinking two pots, Jiang Gaoyi has rarely had a sweet dream since he was imprisoned, lying in the corner and muttering.

"Give him a clean warm quilt, and get the money tomorrow, 100 taels."

Zheng Xiu ordered the jailer, and the latter quickly finished it.The master returned to his cell, lay down on the master's chair, closed his eyes and meditated.

I don't know when it started, this simple prison can bring Zheng Shoufu a sense of peace of mind, and he doesn't want to leave.

The origin of Baili Village is basically the truth.

20 years ago, the Tucun massacre, Baili Village.

It was a small village at the junction of Yanzhou and Jingzhou that existed 20 years ago.

No wonder it couldn't be found.

Leaving aside the tragedy that seems tricky, what Zheng Xiu is thinking at the moment is why this [Prisoner] method allows him to travel back to the illusion of the past 20 years ago.

Just live until dawn?

Or let him use this method to go back to the "past" to review, find out the real culprit, return the truth to those 26 families, and return the world to a bright future?
"Wang Cangyun, the guard with a knife in front of the imperial court..."

"Hunted..."

"That boy..."

"and many more."

Suddenly, once Mr. Zheng substituted the "tragedy 20 years ago" into it, he gradually unraveled and smoothed everything out.A thought that terrified him came up out of thin air: "I have never even heard of the establishment of a 'guard with a knife in front of the emperor'. Is that a position before the year of the monkey?"

"If it's really the commander of the guards with swords in front of the imperial court, he must be the emperor's cronies."

"Twenty years ago, the time was vague, and it was not surprising that there was an error of three to five months."

"If it happened to be at that time, when the old Emperor Wei happened to be away from the imperial city..."

All kinds of clues are strung together inadvertently.

"Then the little kid he brought up, shouldn't it be an illegitimate child?"

When Zheng Xiu was thinking about the "illegitimate child" deduction, the more he thought about it, the more reliable he felt.

There was a dull feeling in the chest first, followed by swelling pain, and the heart was beating wildly, as if something alive was about to burst out of the chest.

Simultaneously.

There was a sharp pain in Zheng Xiu's neck, and two bruises appeared out of thin air, wrapping around his neck.

In the midst of ghosts, something happened!
After hanging up the phone all night, Zheng Xiu thought about the Baili Village tragedy and almost forgot about it.

His eyes closed and opened, his thoughts sank into ghosts, and his consciousness reconnected with the avatar.

Zheng Xiu opened his eyes.

A pungent smell of blood filled the air.

In the darkness, a figure taller than [Zheng Shan] broke into the house at some unknown time.

"call…"

The tall figure had a curved back and his head had reached the beam of the roof.

That figure is like a ferocious humanoid beast with a bent back that is hunting for prey!

"It" is pinching [Zheng Shan]'s neck with its huge palm and lifting it in the air.

in the dark,
In the pain of suffocation, Zheng Xiu could barely see "it" eyes.

Those were a pair of blood-red eyeballs, round and big, like two lanterns in the dark, and like two blood-red whirlpools, sucking Zheng Xiu's attention in.

Tyranny, brutality, killing intent, chaos, madness...

At that moment, Zheng Xiu flashed many adjectives in his mind, and finally settled on one word: indifference.

Inexplicably, he thought of Xiao Fengbei's eyes.

The look in the eyes of everyone in Baili Village seemed out of place.

[You are polluted by 'frenzy'. 】

[Passive determination is generated. 】

The dice float out by themselves, shaking out the points.

【Eight. 】

[If it is less than ten points, the resistance fails. 】

[Will minus one. 】

"Hohohoho..."

A strange laugh came from the mouth of the monster-like figure.

Click!

【You have your neck broken. 】

【die. 】
