Chapter 4 The Water Prison

Ling Hua did not sleep for two days and night, and had two more fights with Yan Qing. His mood fluctuations were very laborious and exhausted. So, after she lay back on the bed and decided not to think about anything, she fell asleep instantly.

She slept heavily, not knowing that Yan Qing was not in the room in the afternoon, so she ran out to drink in the rain.

So, an hour later, she was awakened by the sound of footsteps, turned over, and planned to continue to fall asleep, Wangshu pushed open the door of the outer painting hall, stood at the entrance of the West Warehouse, and said to her in the room, "Master, the little marquis was assassinated in Jinzunfang. The person who attacked was Mr. Zhang Er, who had been taken by Yunluo and sent back to the Governor's Mansion." When Ling Hua woke up suddenly and sat up.

She looked down and saw that her clothes were wearing pretty well, so she quickly got out of the bed, pulled her shoes, walked to the door, and opened the door, "What's going on? Are Yan Qing injured?"

Wangshu immediately said, "The little marquis was not injured. Fortunately, the little marquis was very good at martial arts and avoided the golden needle."

He added, "Not hurt."

Ling Hua was sure that Yan Qing was fine, so he breathed a sigh of relief and looked out the window. It was still raining heavily outside. She turned around and walked into the inner room, "Let's go in and say in detail, why did he run to Jinzunfang with such heavy rain? And Mr. Zhang Er was also the one Mr. Zhang Er who I know? Mr. Zhang Er who has always cooperated with Sihai Bookstore?"

"It's him." Wangshu was also surprised when he learned about it. When his master did not take over the old master's property, Mr. Zhang Er became very famous in Jiangnan. Sihai Bookstore has always cooperated with him. His paintings sold well and he taught very well. Every year, Sihai Bookstore also teaches him about stories and promotions. He has always been an old scholar. Who knows that he is actually a killer today?

After Wangshu rested Ling Hua, Yan Qing suddenly wanted to drink on a whim, so she left the Governor's Office in the rain. At Yunluo's suggestion, she went to Jinzunfang. Then, she happened to meet Mr. Zhang Er in Jinzunfang today. While Yan Qing was drinking, she listened to Mr. Zhang Er's storytelling. When Mr. Zhang Er was resting in the middle, he took advantage of the quarrels and bustling to greet him, and he threw out the poisoned golden needle from his sleeve, a total of thirteen shots, and shot at Yan Qing and so on. He said to Ling Hua confidently.

After listening to Ling Hua, his sleepiness disappeared without a trace, his eyes were cold and fierce, "What a Mr. Zhang Er. It turns out that he can do martial arts and hides it very deeply. Thirteen golden needles shot at a person at the same time in an instant. If he doesn't have the skills, he is just an ordinary person, he will definitely not be able to do it."

Wangshu nodded, "Yes, but we never knew he was good at martial arts. Fortunately, Yun Luo made a quick move, and the medicine bag he had in his mouth didn't have time to bite it."

Ling Hua turned around and took out a thick dress from the closet, put it on her body, then took a rain poncho and put it on her body, and then found a pair of rain boots to put it on. She couldn't forget the discomfort of the embroidered shoes being soaked by the rain. Since Yan Qing was not injured, the person who started the attack had already caught it, she naturally was not so anxious, so she would do whatever she felt comfortable.

After packing everything, she said to Wangshu, "Do you say Mr. Zhang Er has been sent back and imprisoned in the water prison?"

Nodded with the book.

Ling Hua walked out, "Go, go and meet him."

As he stepped out of the threshold, the rain falling from the eaves gathered into a river. If someone poured a basin down, Ling Hua took two steps quickly, avoided the eaves and walked into the rain.

When she walked to the door, she suddenly remembered Liuli and frowned, "Why haven't Liuli come back yet?"

Qingyin Temple is not far away. She only took the Ning family’s files last night for more than an hour. Now it’s been half a day and nowhere to be seen. Is something wrong? Or is it delayed because of the rain?

Wangshu shook his head, "I have someone go and ask for it."

Ling Hua nodded, "She went out to bring people with her?"

"Take it with me."

Ling Hua felt relieved.

The Governor's Office has a water prison, which was created by Ling Hua when he came here three years ago. In recent years, there have been few places to be used. Most of the times that people who can be locked up in the water prison can count with one hand are used by people in the East Palace. After using the torture of the eighteen kinds of interrogation, they naturally want to pry out useful things from the mouths of the people who come in so as to deal with the East Palace.

Of course, Mr. Zhang Er, who has entered the water prison, is an existence beyond her expectations.

When he arrived at the water prison, he opened the prison door, Ling Huayou Wangshu accompanied him and walked in one after another.

The water prison was dark. Looking at the book and holding the lamp, I saw Mr. Zhang Er, who was over 50, surrounded by iron locks, hanging on half of the wall, and the water was buried half of his body. The water was naturally not ordinary water. The water was mixed with anesthetics that could penetrate the skin, eroding people's strength bit by bit. Even if a person with a strong martial arts skill was locked up here, he would slowly lose all his strength to resist without breaking his hands and feet.

Mr. Zhang Er's chin was still removed, and the poison pack in his mouth had already been pulled out. He drooped his head and his face was shattered. Because he was well maintained, his face was pale and pale at this time. When he heard the movement, he looked up and looked extremely calm. He seemed to have expected this result, not horrified, and he was very willing to put life and death aside.

Ling Hua walked to Mr. Zhang Er, stared at him for a while, and met his eyes. Mr. Zhang Er had no other expression. Ling Hua smiled, "I have always liked Mr. Zhang's paintings and storytelling talent, but I didn't expect that Mr. hides so deeply. Did he actually become a killer and become a good person many years ago?"

There was no fluctuation in Mr. Zhang Er's eyes, as if Ling Hua was not talking about him.

"The reason why sir assassinated my husband was that someone threatened me and asked me to guess." Ling Hua slowly sat on the only chair on the interrogation table and threw a sentence that was a blow to Mr. Zhang Er. "Since the news that his husband and I left Beijing, someone should have found him. Mr.'s weakness should be your two sons."

There was finally a slight fluctuation in Mr. Zhang Er's eyes, but it was fleeting.

Ling Hua said, "People all think that they have lived a long life, never married, and have no children. Because they are good at writing and writing books and telling books, they have seen through the love and nothingness in this world, so they are alone, indulging in wine and enjoying life. But three years ago, I knew that the gentleman had two sons, and one of them was very famous, and he was a famous figure in the green forest. "

The fluctuations in Mr. Zhang Er's eyes surged again, and he finally showed a look of shock.

"Mr. I did hide it well, but there is no airtight wall in the world after all." Ling Hua met Mr. Zhang Er's shocked eyes, saying word by word, "I have observed for three years and found that Mr. Zhang is very happy about the days of writing and writing books and telling books, so he did not disturb Mr. Li. After all, you and I have no grudges in the past. Mr. Li is willing to be an ordinary citizen, and I am happy to fulfill it. Caojun is a place where fish and dragons are mixed, and there are no fewer lying on fire and hidden dragons. He does not ask where the heroes come from, and I do not plan to be the master of Qingtian. He will not make holes when he clears one acre of three parts of the land."

Ling Hua watched Mr. Zhang Er's eyes change, and his light words changed. His eyes suddenly became sharp and his tone was instantly sharp. "But I didn't expect that the gentleman is now attacking my husband. It's really a hidden weapon. If my husband doesn't have any skills, he will give you his life today."

Mr. Zhang Er naturally couldn't speak because his chin was removed, but his eyes fluctuated violently.

Ling Hua looked at him, "Let me guess again, is it someone who has controlled the Thirteenth Hei Su Zhao? Or is someone who has controlled the Thirteenth Hei Su Chu?"

Mr. Zhang Er suddenly lowered his head, as if he was afraid that Ling Hua would see it from his eyes.

Ling Hua had already seen it, "It seems that he has taken care of Su Zhao, is it the Eastern Palace? Or the Wen family? Or the Green Forest? Or is it the killer organization next to him?"

Ling Hua laughed, "Are you going to chop Hei Shisan's arms and legs? Or twist his head? He has long been thrown into the Green Forest and is licking blood from the blade. You, a father, cherish his life more than him."

Seeing that Mr. Zhang Er never raised his head, Ling Hua said slowly, "Sir, I seem to pay close attention to your two sons over the years. Do you know that Su Chu likes me? He once pestered me and was willing to be a cow and a horse. Since someone threatened you with Hei Shisan, if I gave Su Chu's life to you, would you cherish your youngest son's life? He is much more innocent than Hei Shisan. He has an innocent adoptive parent who can stand upright in the sun, especially this year, he has finished the imperial examination, right?"

Mr. Zhang Er suddenly raised his head again, trying to say something, but because he removed his chin, he could only hear a wow sound.

Seeing that the strategy of attacking one's heart had already taken effect, Ling Hua said to the book, "Close Mr. Zhang Er's chin, let's hear what Mr. Zhang Er said?"

Wangshu should have taken a few steps forward, pinched Mr. Zhang Er's chin, and his technique was neat, and he connected his chin in a blink of an eye.
