King of Han Dynasty of Ming Dynasty

but.

Nakata took action.

But the two bandits who were with him fell into struggle and silence.

No one chose to take action.

Nakata, who had just rushed out two steps, instantly noticed the situation behind him.

Until neither of them responded to him.

This made him, who was originally ready to die, stunned on the spot.

After a brief silence, he stopped and looked around with knife in hand warily at the Jinyiwei who were looking at him as if they were fools, but saw that they did not make any move.

He turned around with an angry look on his face and shouted angrily at the two men behind him who hadn't made any moves:
"Bastard thing."

"You are all cowards and a disgrace to the Empire."

"Your actions today are bringing shame to the empire."

"Your family, friends, and children will never be able to raise their heads in the empire forever."

"The Empire will never let your family go."

"None of you can expect to have an easy life..."

At the same time he was talking trash and denouncing his men as cowards.

Although he seemed alert.

But it also exposed his backside to the Jinyiwei.

See this situation.

The Jinyiwei, who had been on high alert and looking for an opportunity to capture him alive, naturally would not let go of such a good opportunity.

Without the slightest hesitation.

In a flash, the Jinyiwei behind him jumped up like rabbits and came behind him in a few leaps.

The big knife in his hand was making blade flowers, and he pointed the extremely hard handle at the back of Nakata's neck and struck it hard, trying to knock him out and capture him.

Have to admit.

Nakata is also quite capable.

When he realized something was wrong, he reacted instantly.

He swung his knife viciously at the back, and at the same time bent his body slightly downward, trying to use the momentum to roll over in an attempt to avoid the Jinyiwei who were attacking him from behind.

But the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

One step at a time, one step at a time.

Especially when both sides are experienced masters fighting each other, revealing the slightest flaw is tantamount to pushing oneself into an endless abyss.

The several Jinyiwei who rushed over had already guessed some of the actions that Nakata might take when he reacted.

I've been on guard against him for a long time!

How can we give him a chance?

to this end.

Even though Nakata reacted quickly enough, the situation was already over.

While he was waving his sword to dodge, the Jinyiwei had already turned sideways and pounced on him like a hungry wolf.

He pinned Nakata directly under him, causing his attempt to roll and dodge to fail.

then.

Seeing that he was held down, the Jinyiwei who followed him pinched his chin hard to prevent him from closing his mouth, and knocked him out with a palm.

Afterwards, they pried open Nakata's mouth and checked his teeth to determine whether he had any poison in his mouth.

To avoid the leader who was finally captured dying in front of them.

Fortunately, after checking around, there was no foreign object hidden in Nakata's mouth.

everything is normal.

After dealing with Nakata, all the Jinyiwei stared at the two Japanese bandits who were still in a daze.

Feeling the eyes focused on them, the two Japanese bandits who were in a daze suddenly came back to their senses.

Without any hesitation, he threw the Japanese sword in his hand to the ground, and shouted loudly with a look of great fear and respect:
"We surrender!"

"We surrender..."

"Don't kill us, don't kill us!!"

While speaking, the two Japanese bandits knelt down and kowtowed to the Jinyiwei and begged them.

Seeing two people kneeling down and surrendering.

The captain of the Jinyiwei didn't say much. He glanced at him coldly, waved his hand at his men, and ordered:
"Take it!"

"Take everyone back to the prison."

"Let these bastards tell me everything they know."

"Especially him..."

As he spoke, he pointed at Nakata, who was knocked unconscious and had his hands tied behind his back, and continued:

"As expected, this person is the leader of this operation."

"Pry his mouth open."

"Except for the people being escorted, the rest of the people who should stay behind should guard this mansion."

"No one knows whether these Japanese bandits will come back to attack us."

After hearing this.

The Jinyiwei in the venue quickly divided the work and cooperated with each other. Half of them were responsible for escorting the people back to the Tianlao, and the rest stayed here to avoid any accidents.

……

Jinyiwei Tianlao.

As soon as they received the news that the Jinyiwei who were lying in ambush had brought back a live person, they had already set up camp here.

Not long after.

Then I saw a very ordinary and low-key carriage galloping on the street not far away and heading straight towards the Jinyiwei Prison.

In a moment, it came close.

Then the carriage stopped upright in front of the gate of the imperial prison.

The Jinyiwei, who had been waiting at the door, walked quickly towards the carriage under the leadership of Ji Gang.

After the carriage stopped, the people in the carriage moved very quickly, opened the tightly closed door curtain, and walked out, dragging three Japanese bandits in night clothes behind them.

As soon as they got off the car, the Jinyiwei saw Ji Gang coming to greet them. They did not dare to hesitate at all and saluted him respectfully with an extremely respectful look:
"Your subordinate greets His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief."

Ji Gang came closer and waved his hand calmly to the people who were saluting. Then he looked past them and looked at the three people who were tied up and gagged behind him. His eyes narrowed and he asked:

"Are these the people who were captured alive during the attack?"

Hearing the question, the captain of the Jinyiwei nodded and quickly responded:
"Return to my lord."

"We killed six bandits in total, three of whom were killed by us during the battle."

"These three were captured alive."

At this point, he seemed to have thought of something, pointed at Nakata who was tied up, and continued:

"grown ups."

"If nothing unexpected happens, this person is the leader of the weapons workshop Zhang Shangyun who is in charge of the Japanese bandit attack this time."

"I think this person should know a lot of things."

"But this person's resistance was particularly fierce and his words were particularly hard."

"When we surrounded them and tried to persuade them to surrender."

"This person would rather die than surrender, and still put up a fearless resistance, even attempting to kill himself with a knife."

"After we catch him."

"We were worried that he would bite his tongue and kill himself, thus cutting off the clues, so we have kept his mouth sealed until now."

After hearing this, Ji Gang looked with interest. Nakata, who was tied up, had a ferocious face and eyes as big as copper bells. His mouth was stuffed with unknown cloth strips, but one could still hear the "wuuuuu" sound coming from his mouth.

But judging from his ferocious expression, it was clear that Nakata wasn't saying anything nice.

In this regard.

Ji Gang nodded without comment, a suggestive and sinister smile flashing across his face, and he couldn't help grinning.

After a brief pause, Ji Gang suddenly opened his half-closed eyes, glanced at the escorted Nakata, and said with a smile:
"Very good, very good."

"I just like to be tough, I like to be tough and have tough bones."

"I also want to know, who is harder, his bones or the torture instrument in my hand."

"To be honest." "I don't know how long it has been since I last saw a tough person in all these years."

"I hope you won't disappoint me, otherwise it will be too boring."

As he spoke, he waved his hand at the Jinyiwei who were escorting the Japanese pirates and said:

"Come"

"Take this man to prison."

"This person will be interrogated by this officer personally."

Say it.

He didn't say another word, nor did he make any unnecessary movements. He turned around and strode into the imperial prison.

This statement came out.

The Jinyiwei who followed Ji Gang, regardless of their official positions, couldn't help but tremble involuntarily. Their faces became visibly frightened and terrified. They suddenly felt a terrifying chill going up from their coccyx to the top of their heads, and their bodies shivered involuntarily.

It's no wonder they made a fuss about it.

In fact, they are those people who have always followed Ji Gang, or any old members of the Jinyiwei.

Everyone knows the character of their boss.

As long as his boss shows such an expression, there is no doubt that someone is bound to be in trouble, and will be unable to live or die.

To know.

Over the years, no matter how tough a person is or how strong his character is, he will fall into Ji Gang's hands.

It seems that no one can survive more than half an hour.

He confessed all his crimes in detail.

And whoever was interrogated by Ji Gang,
Thinking of this, the Jinyiwei standing at the gate of the imperial prison couldn't help but cast a sympathetic look at Nakata, who was tied up and stuffed with cloth strips and making a "wuwuwu" sound not far away. They mourned for him in their hearts, shook their heads and sighed secretly:

“It’s a sin.”

"I don't know it yet. I really don't know whether it is a blessing or..."

Order received.

The Jinyiwei who were in charge of escorting the Japanese pirates did not hesitate at all, and followed Ji Gang's pace and walked inside at a quick pace, fearing that if they walked too slowly, they would be affected by the disaster.

Wait until he enters.

The Jinyiwei who were in a daze all came to their senses and subconsciously looked at each other.

after that.

They seemed to have thought of something, and their expressions became excited.

Then, they heard a familiar voice in their ears, hoarse and low:

"Come, come, come"

"Open. Open. Take a gamble. Take a gamble."

"Look at this time, the boss took action personally."

"How long can these Japanese bandits hold out in the boss's hands?"

"The odds this time, as in the past, remain unchanged."

"Buy it and leave it. Buy it and leave it."

"Hurry up, hurry up, time will pass."

Suddenly.

The atmosphere was originally quiet and depressing.

As this person opened his mouth, he disappeared in an instant. The Jinyiwei, who had been silent, became excited. They quickly moved towards the person who spoke, took out the silver they had brought from their pockets and handed it to that person.

"I'll buy half an hour."

“The most I buy is a cup of tea.”

For a moment, the entrance to the Jinyiwei prison seemed extremely lively.

at the same time.

In the dark and damp imperial prison, a faint smell of blood was floating in the air, accompanied by a slight damp and slightly moldy smell, which made even the Jinyiwei who were familiar with the environment here feel a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, on the long corridor that was only wide enough for three people to walk side by side, there was a dim oil lamp flickering every three or five steps. The halos of light it created dispelled the surrounding darkness and made the entire imperial prison seem less gloomy.

The three Japanese bandits who were escorted inside felt the oppressive atmosphere coming from the surroundings.

Everyone's face was visibly filled with fear and anxiety.

Even Nakata, who just now thought he was extremely tough and dared to face death and slash his own neck with a knife, couldn't help but feel a trace of fear and terror deep in his heart, which slowly began to spread.

Not long after.

Walking through the long, dim and dark corridor.

The group stopped at an open prison gate.

The entire cell was filled with dim oil lamps, illuminating the entire cell as if it were daytime.

As far as the eye can see.

There was not a single superfluous item in the entire cell. It was filled with all kinds of torture instruments, many of which had never been seen or heard of before. Under the dim oil lamplight, each instrument of torture shone with a chilling light that could make one's souls shudder. People couldn't help but feel afraid and unwilling to get close.

"Bastard thing."

"What are you doing standing still?"

"Everyone, go in quietly."

Seeing the Japanese pirates stopped at the door and unwilling to enter, the Jinyiwei in charge of escorting them did not give them a good look and kicked the three men's thighs viciously.

Lang Cang kicked the three people who were in a daze, and his body unconsciously rushed into the cell.

The sudden change caused the three people to cry out in pain.

However, the Jinyiwei had no sympathy for the three men. They ignored them and dragged them inside like dead dogs.

"grown ups."

"The bandits are here."

"Please have a look, sir."

After hearing this, Ji Gang, who was standing with his hands behind his back with interest and a look of reminiscence on his face, slowly turned around and looked at the three people who fell to the ground, staring at them for a long time.

after that.

He pondered for a moment, pointed at a Japanese bandit in front of Nakata, and said with a smile:

"Very good. Very good."

"I just like to see other people's fearful expressions."

"Of the three of you, you are the most fearful and terrified."

"Then let's start with you!"

"I hope you can keep this fear you have now, I like it very much"

The Japanese bandits who were named were stunned. Suddenly they came to their senses, looked terrified and pissed themselves off. They hurriedly explained frantically:
"No no no no no"

"I am just a soldier, just a subordinate."

"I don't know anything, I really don't know anything, let me go. Let me go. Please let me go, please."

"Let us go. Let us go because you promised me that you would give us a chance to live if we surrendered."

"You can't go back on your words."

As he spoke, he seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly turned his head to look at Nakata's position, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, and screamed loudly with a crazy look, saying:
"He he he"

"He is the person in charge of this operation, the leader of this operation."

“He’s the only one who knows everything.”

"My lord, please ask him. Please ask him."

"He must know everything, he must know everything"

Upon hearing this, Ji Gang showed an unfathomable smile on his face, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and said in a very calm tone:

"Oh?"

"What does it have to do with me?"

"He knows it's his business, but I just want to interrogate you first."

"Any questions?"

"Hahaha"

after that.

He ignored the man and waved his hand calmly at his men. (End of this chapter)
