“Take this medicine.”
Su Qing handed a pill to the officer and asked him to feed it to the man. The officer admired and feared Su Qing at the same time. He carried out her orders unconditionally. This kind of obedience came from the bottom of his heart. It was all because Su Qing was too powerful. She was so powerful that no one dared to disobey her orders.
The man didn’t know what Su Qing was going to feed him. However, when he saw her cold eyes, he felt the drug was more terrifying than torture.
Was this woman a demon? How could she be so cruel?
The man wanted to dodge and escape, but Su Qing stepped on his injured shoulder again. He was in so much pain that he couldn’t resist at all. When he saw that the lieutenant was about to feed him a pill, the man wanted to shut his mouth and grit his teeth. Unfortunately, his chin was kicked by Su Qing. Even if he tried to shut his mouth, it was a luxury. He watched helplessly as the lieutenant put the pill into his mouth and removed the poison.
Despair spread in the man’s heart. He raised his head in fear to look at the terrifying woman. He saw her looking down at him from above. She was a beautiful face, but it made people fear her from the bottom of their hearts.
The pill slid down his throat and into his stomach. The man’s pupils suddenly shrank. He stretched his neck in pain, and the flesh on his face trembled violently. The pain was ten thousand times more painful than death by a thousand cuts. The man sweated like rain, and his entire body rolled and squirmed on the ground like a maggot. His face turned from white to red and then purple. Blood flowed out of the corners of his eyes. The intense pain was unbearable, and he wished he could die immediately.
The commoners and soldiers present looked at the man’s pained expression and were even more in awe of Su Qing. What kind of medicine was that? It was too terrifying.
Li Daniu squeezed out from behind the soldiers. He looked at the man on the ground and found him more and more familiar. The main reason was that the man’s facial features were distorted due to the pain. His chin had been kicked off, and he could not close his mouth. His appearance had changed significantly. He could not recognize him at first glance.
“Is he Yongkang’s cousin?”
Su Qing’s voice rang in his ears. Li Daniu shivered. Why was Su Qing’s voice colder than the ice and snow?
“I can’t recognize him.”
This was a serious matter. Even though Li Daniu was usually slightly stunned, he dared not answer with certainty.
It was mainly because it involved Yongkang. Li Daniu felt that Su Qing was looking for evidence against Yongkang.
Li Daniu still trusted Qiu Yongkang from the bottom of his heart. He would never betray Mo City, Peach Blossom Cove, or Shuisheng.
“Put his chin up.”
Su Qing ordered the lieutenant to hold the man’s chin and turned to look at Li Daniu.”
“Is it?”
Li Daniu squatted in front of the man and looked at him carefully. He had already recognized him. He was wondering if he should inform Shuisheng and Yongkang first.
” It seems like the...”
Su Qing understood Li Daniu’s personality and saw the hesitation and struggle in his eyes. He did not need to say anything else.
Li Daniu stood up awkwardly and wanted to speak up for Yong Kang.
“Yongkang doesn’t know about this.”
Su Qing looked at him with her dark and heavy eyes. Li Daniu was so scared that he dared not say anything more. He felt that Su Qing would break his neck if he said anything more.
Li Daniu did not doubt that Su Qing would kill him. She did not give a face to anyone. Killing someone was easier than killing a chicken. n(-OveLbIn
“Where are the remaining three bundles of weapons?”
Su Qing kicked the man who was still rolling on the ground and asked him coldly.
She had made a total of six bundles of detonators. Last night, he had blown up one in the restaurant. Just now, the man had blown up another bundle to lure her away from his house. There were three bundles of detonators, including the ones she had seized from him. In other words, there were still three bundles of detonators.
“Only...Two...Two.”
The man stretched out two trembling fingers. The intense pain made him not dare to have any hope of getting away with it. He answered honestly.
“That’s not right.”
Su Qing frowned. He still dared to lie?
Seeing that Su Qing did not believe him, the man would endlessly torture himself. He was so scared that he quickly said.
“Really... There are only two. I got four, and I’ve already used one.”
Su Qing looked into his eyes. The man’s eyes were filled with fear and despair, afraid that Su Qing wouldn’t believe him. If what he said was true, he wasn’t the one who threw the detonator at the restaurant last night?
Su Qing didn’t jump to conclusions. These spies had received special training and could resist torture. He had to find the detonators first, and then he would know how many bundles there were. She asked in a deep voice.
“Where is it?”
The man lay on the ground and gasped for air. His eyes were red. He said shakily,
“In the house, 1 live in...On the left side of the Kang hole.”
After explaining, he was like a deflated ball, waiting for death in despair. He only hoped that this hellish torture would end as soon as possible.
Su Qing ordered the lieutenant to keep an eye on him. She took her men to the house that they had just searched. Li Daniu looked at the man in a daze. He worried for Yongkang and felt he should not indulge his cousin.
“Miss Su, look.”
Just as Su Qing was about to bring people back to search, the captain who stayed at the house ran over with his men. He held two bundles of detonators in his hands and reported to her.
“I found it in the kang in that room.”
Su Qing took a look. There were only two bundles, meaning there was still one bundle missing.
This thing could blow up the government office with a bundle. It definitely couldn’t be left outside.
Su Qing kicked the man who was still suffering.
“Who took you to find the great killing weapon?”
” It’s Qiu Yongkang...”
The man’s voice was as weak as a mosquito. He looked at Su Qing pleadingly and said.
“I beg you; please grant me a quick death!”
Su Qing looked at him coldly. The man was in despair and shouted at her hysterically.
“You female devil, give me a quick death.”
He would only be tortured to death, but his life wouldn’t be in danger. Su Qing didn’t want his life yet, so she had a use for this person. She had to make him fear her to the bone so he wouldn’t dare to play any tricks.
“Lock him up and keep a close eye on him.”
Su Qing gave the order to the lieutenant and left with a group of soldiers. When she passed by the commoners who were looking at her in fear, she stopped. The commoners looked at her as if they had seen a plague. When the crying children saw Su Qing coming over, they were so scared that they did not dare to cry anymore.
“Which one of you is the spy? TH let bygones be bygones and let bygones be bygones. When 1 find out...That would be your end.”
Su Qing was punishing the man in front of the commoners to scare the spies hiding among them and make them surrender.
It had to be said that Su Qing’s move was brilliant. Two spies ran to the government office to surrender. Su Qing’s method of dealing with that man frightened them. They were all afraid of that black pill.
After Su Qing intimidated the spy, she brought her men to capture Qiu Yongkang. Now that the evidence was conclusive, Ji Shuisheng no longer had any illusions about Qiu Yongkang.
Li Daniu caught up with Su Qing and begged.
“Su Qing, can you spare Yongkang’s life?”
Su Qing stopped and looked at him coldly.
“Did you participate in this matter?”
