There is nothing to see at the robbery scene. After all, people have been caught, and they are not police agents or private detectives.
So they only went up for a turn. Liu junchong was rich in assets. Even the decoration of a branch was very elegant.
Because there was chaos in the previous gunfight, and many bullet holes were left in the walls of the corridor. Fortunately, it was night when it happened. There were almost no people in the whole building. Otherwise, I'm afraid there would be many casualties.
The walls in the corridor were splashed with blood, and the air was filled with a faint smell of blood, which made people who had just come out of the banquet frown.
"It seems that these people have arranged people around Liu junchong." the other party came here and went straight to the place where he collected gold and silver dollars without hesitation. In the whole room, there is no trace of random turning except the confusion left by the fight. It can be seen that the other party knows where to put things.
Fortunately, Fu Fengcheng directly came to the door and took the people away. If they delayed and hesitated or were found later, the Fu family was investigating Liu junchong, I'm afraid they would get a body that had been dead for a long time.
Fu Fengcheng nodded and said, "it should be so." but now that Liu junchong is in their hands, they naturally don't worry.
If those people really dared to assassinate Liu junchong, it would save them trouble.
"Bring people in." Fu Fengcheng said to Xu Shaoming who followed him. Xu Shaoming didn't speak. He just nodded and turned downstairs.
But for a moment, several people followed behind Xu Shaoming and came in with people.
"Big little."
Fu Fengcheng nodded and said, "put it down."
Several soldiers threw the man to the ground, saluted and turned out.
Fu Fengcheng looked at lengsa and said, "Madam doesn't like the taste here. Why don't you go down and look around?"
Lengsa blinked, quickly understood Fu Fengcheng's meaning, shook his head and said, "no, you ask."
He got up and went to the window where half the glass was broken by the bullet, and reached out to push the window open. The cool wind at night poured in from the outside. The faint blood gas in the room was blown away by the wind, which made people feel relaxed and happy immediately.
Lengsa stood at the window and looked out. Here he could just see the river not far away.
At this time, there was silence outside. There were ships floating slowly on the river under the night, and the whistle sounded occasionally.
In the room behind him, Fu Fengcheng sat in the chair behind the huge desk and looked at the people lying on the ground indifferently.
The manager's office of this branch office is very spacious, even if there are five or six people lying horizontally, it still looks very spacious.
Xu Shaoming glanced at Fu Fengcheng. When he saw Fu Fengcheng nodding, he leaned forward, grabbed one of them's hair, half picked them up, and said with a smile, "come on, who's your master?"
Although the man's limbs and joints were removed, he still refused to give in, stared at Xu Shaoming fiercely, and tried his best to spit at him.
Xu Shaoming's head tilted to avoid the sudden attack, and the smile on his face became deeper and deeper. Said with a smile, "we still want to play a righteous man who would rather die than surrender in our hands? Even people like Hong Tianci have been recruited. When do you think you can last?"
The man's face suddenly changed when he heard the speech. It was obvious that he had heard of Hong Tianci.
Since last year, they have suffered heavy losses in the six southern provinces. They were newly added at the end of the year. Although they are not on the same line with Hong Tianci, they still heard about what happened in Yongcheng and even the whole six southern provinces in the past years. How can they not feel nervous and worried?
But even so, the man still clenched his teeth and said nothing. It was obvious that he was going to die.
Xu Shaoming is not surprised. He has seen so many tough people these years. However, many people have a hard mouth, but not many people whose bones can really be hard to the end.
Xu Shaoming grabbed the man's hair and hit his head on the ground with a thud. The man only felt that his head was hit by a heavy hammer and was about to crack in pain.
Xu Shaoming pulled him up again, and a wisp of blood fell from his forehead, overflowing his eyes and flowing to his face.
Xu Shaoming looked down at him. "Now you know I'm not kidding? The dragon's gate master just unloaded your hand and foot joints. As long as you install the Yangyang, it can always be good. But if we do it, I'll break your limbs one by one. Do you want to try?"
The man was fascinated by the blood and barely opened his eyes. Through a layer of blood light, he saw Xu Shaoming's smiling face and couldn't help shaking.
Seeing this, Xu Shaoming laughed more happily. It was easy to do if he knew he was afraid.
Reaching out and patting the man on the cheek, Xu Shaoming said with a smile, "think clearly. You've screwed up. Even if we let you go back now, do you think you can live? Besides, death is not the most terrible thing in the world. The most terrible thing is... Life is not like death."
"I... I..." the man looked pale. "We just follow orders and don't know anything."
Xu Shaoming slightly raised his eyebrows. "I don't know anything. You commit suicide when you're caught? I don't know that the quality of local ruffians and people who collect money and work on the road is so high these days?"
Xu Shaoming stood up and said to the humanitarian guard outside the door, "pull out and break his arm and leg. Knock it slowly, small by small."
The two soldiers came in and didn't say much. They directly came forward, picked up the man on the ground and went outside.
They didn't go far. They were in the corridor a few steps away from the door. A moment later, they heard a terrible cry outside.
The rest of the people lying on the ground looked more and more ugly. Some even tried to bite their tongue and commit suicide. However, the Longmen people were ready when they caught people, and everyone had a towel in their mouth.
Lengsa leaned against the window and looked at it. She shook her head disapprovingly. Biting her tongue is one of the most painful ways of suicide in the world, and the success rate is very low.
Even if successful, most of them die of excessive blood loss, pain or choking. It's too much to think about the kind of quick death that can be easily and easily with a bite on TV.
Xu Shaoming looked at several people on the ground and said, "what's up? Do you want to say something?"
Although the people on the ground were scared to death, no one spoke.
Obviously, although they think Xu Shaoming's means are cruel and terrible, there is still something to support them to shut up.
Fu Fengcheng, sitting behind his desk, stared at the people on the ground, and a wisp of evil spirit was slowly spreading in his eyes.
But neither the standing Xu Shaoming nor the lying people found it. Lengsa noticed something wrong with Fu Fengcheng, but she just stood up straight. Before she could say anything, she saw Fu Fengcheng suddenly stand up from behind the desk.
Xu Shaoming thought Fu Fengcheng had something to say, so he stepped back and stood aside solemnly.
Fu Fengcheng came out from behind the desk, grabbed a man and looked at him, "who is your master? Who sent you?"
The man he held in his hand bit his teeth and said, "no... I don't know..." before he finished, Fu Dashao raised his legs and knees heavily against the man's abdomen, and then threw the man into the corner of the wall.
The man was so painful that he curled up like a shrimp and made a painful groan in his mouth.
There was no time for relaxation at all. Fu Fengcheng went over and grabbed his neck and looked down at each other, "said."
The man said with difficulty, "I don't know..."
The hand around his neck suddenly tightened, and the man couldn't help opening his eyes.
The hand on his neck was like a pair of pliers, tightly pinching his neck, and the air gradually became thin. The instinct of survival made him want to struggle, but the limbs with their joints removed made him unable to move. He could only try to open his mouth to breathe, but it was obviously useless.
His eyes opened wider and wider, and his face gradually became gray. The severe lack of oxygen made him feel that he was beginning to blacken before his eyes, and he was about to die
Suddenly, the hand holding his neck loosened, and a large amount of air poured in, which made him choke, but he still couldn't help but want to breathe hard, and he was in a state of tears for a time.
Fu Fengcheng still squatted next to him and asked calmly, "do you know now?"
The man trembled and said, "no..."
This was the last word he said in the world, because Fu Fengcheng's hand broke his neck the next moment.
With a slight click, the person who had just coughed awkwardly opened his eyes, there was no sound, and his neck fell to the ground at a strange angle.
Fu Fengcheng stood up, turned and walked towards the rest of the people on the ground. The remaining three people looked at the man coming towards them in horror.
Even if they couldn't move their limbs, they tried to rub their bodies against the floor and wanted to be farther away from Fu Fengcheng.
Fu Fengcheng took out a handkerchief and slowly wiped his fingers. It was a pair of very beautiful hands, but it had just broken a man's neck.
In the panic, someone finally spit out the towel stuffed in his mouth. He shouted in horror, "don't come here! Don't come here!"
Xu Shaoming touched his nose. Sure enough, he didn't start hard enough?
"I said! I said..." the man looked at Fu Fengcheng standing in front of him in horror and trembled.
Fu Fengcheng was not surprised and calmly ordered, "ask questions."
Xu Shaoming nodded hurriedly, "yes, Dashao."
Fu Fengcheng glanced down at the people on the ground, "if you are still dishonest, you don't have to work hard. Kill them all."
Xu Shaoming was a little surprised, "Dashao, this..." if you kill them, you have to find another clue.
Fu Fengcheng sneered, "no matter how strict their mouth is, I'll kill one when I see one. One day... I can kill all. What's the hurry?"
Adjutant Xu expressed his admiration that Da Shao thought so. "Yes, I see."
"Madam, let's go." Fu Fengcheng didn't hurry to know the result, but looked at lengsa and whispered.
Lengsa didn't say much, just nodded and walked over, holding Fu Fengcheng's hand and said, "let's go."
Xu Shaoming looked at the two people who were ready to leave hand in hand. "Young lady, young lady, go slowly."
The street downstairs has been blocked by the Fu family. Although many people stood, it is still quiet.
They went to the car parked on the side of the road. Lengsa said to the driver, "go down and I'll drive."
The driver hesitated. He didn't know whether Mrs. Fu Shao could drive or not. But he saw that Fu Dashao had pulled the door of the co driver's seat and sat in. He quickly opened the door and got out of the car, watching lengsa sit in.
The car was quickly started and lengsa drove out of the blocked street.
It's almost 11 p.m. at this time. Even if Jiangcheng is the most prosperous city in Anxia, most places have long been quiet.
In the daytime, the streets with people coming and going are quiet. There is hardly a person or a car in the whole street. Driving a car to and from such a city can easily make people feel an absurd sense of isolation from the whole world.
Lengsa looked at Fu Fengcheng sitting in the co pilot's seat and looking at him. "What's the matter? He's in a bad mood?" she found out just now that Fu Dashao is in a bad mood.
Fu Fengcheng looked at the road ahead. "It's not the way back to the hotel."
Leng SA nodded and said, "I can't catch up with the banquet now. I'm leaving tomorrow. It's better to take the opportunity to see Jiangcheng. I haven't visited Jiangcheng yet."
Fu Fengcheng said, "when you come back from the capital, if your wife likes, we can come to Jiangcheng to live for a period of time."
Leng SA smiled, "OK, but I'm afraid it's not easy to wait for Fu Shao to have time?"
Fu Fengcheng said, "if your wife likes it, she will have time."
Lengsa's driving speed is not slow. Even after a detour, he stopped by the river in a short time.
At this time, the river became more quiet, and even the passing cargo ships could hardly be seen. Only a few search boats were moored by the river. They all stopped quietly. I don't know if there is anyone.
After getting out of the car, lengsa took Fu Fengcheng forward for a while, found a flat grass and sat down.
Fu Fengcheng did not ask why, but let her pull herself to sit down.
Lengsa leaned on his shoulder, looked lazily at the sparkling river and said, "the weather is very good tonight."
Fu Fengcheng looked up at the sky. At the beginning of the month, he couldn't see any moonlight. Instead, the sky was full of stars. It looked very beautiful. So he nodded and said, "it's very good." he stretched out his hand and took her into his arms. There was a little more smile in his voice, "so, my wife invited me to see the stars?"
Lengsa looked up at him with a smile and said, "yes, so is Fu Shao in a better mood?"
Fu Fengcheng was stunned and said, "I..."
Lengsa held his hand and said, "nothing. Everyone is in a bad mood. But... Can I know why you are in a bad mood?"
Fu Fengcheng lowered his head and put his forehead against her forehead. His voice was a little low and hoarse. There was an inexplicable charm in the night.
"I don't know. I'm just a little upset." Fu Fengcheng said, "maybe... The people behind the scenes really make me a little impatient."
Leng SA said, "you are not impatient."
Fu Fengcheng thought for a moment and said with a smile, "madam is right, so I said... I don't know. It's just... After listening to the old man's things in his early years, I'm a little inexplicably upset. Like... I don't know whether something good or bad will happen."
Leng SA said, "since you don't know whether it's good or bad, why are you upset?"
Fu Fengcheng said, "probably because... I don't want to change."
Lengsa didn't understand very much. She is not a delicate and considerate person.
However, Fu Fengcheng said she didn't want to change this. She still understood it. She stretched out her hand to surround him and said, "no matter how to change, as long as you are still you, I will always be by your side."
Fu Fengcheng was slightly moved and hugged her more tightly, as if to be deeply embedded in his arms. "Of course, madam will always be by my side, because... I won't give you a chance to leave. Unless... I die."
"..." Leng SA raised his head angrily and stared at him, "what nonsense?"
After sitting by the river for a while, Fu Fengcheng was obviously in a better mood.
Lengsa put his head on his knee and asked, "what did Wei Changxiu tell you tonight?"
Fu Fengcheng had expected the Liu family to be robbed, or he deliberately set a trap, waiting for people to come from the pitching net. Naturally, he won't be unhappy about it.
Then we can only move forward. At the banquet in the evening, Fu Fengcheng has been talking to Wei Changxiu. Naturally, what Wei Changxiu said.
Fu Fengcheng was silent for a while before he slowly told lengsa what Wei Changxiu told him in the evening. In fact, being upset is only a matter of a moment. When you think about it carefully, it seems that there is nothing to say.
Although she had known the relationship between Ms. Zhuolin and Wei Changxiu earlier, lengsa couldn't help feeling when people talked about the details.
It can be seen that the boundary of Anxia is really not big. You can meet people with relatives back and forth.
"Twenty seven years ago... You were born, and what happened before and after the divorce of governor Fu Jun and Ms. Zhuo Lin? It seems that this matter is quite complicated, and many people were involved in it." lengsa raised her eyebrows.
The Sheng family must have participated, but lengsa doesn't think that just because what the Sheng family did led to Zhuo Lin's divorce from Fu dujun, it can make Ms. Zhuo hate so much.
After all, it seems that Ms. Zhuo can treat Fu dujun calmly. It's like "who didn't meet two scum men when he was young and has seen it open".
If it's just because of this, Zhuo Lin should be glad that the family has let herself see someone's true face, rather than hating her family more than hating slag man.
There must have been something... That everyone, including Fu dujun, didn't know happened.
Maybe... Governor long knows? But he won't say it.
Fu Fengcheng said, "the old man and Ms. Zhuo divorced twenty-eight years ago." although there were many things on this day, Fu Dashao went to see Fu dujun and asked a little about that year.
One month after Fu dujun divorced Zhuolin, Mrs. Fu found Fu dujun and said she was one month pregnant.
For some reason, the old man and the old lady of the Fu family asked Fu dujun to marry Mrs. Fu and enter the door.
Fu Fengcheng was born six months after Mrs. Fu entered the door, that is, when the child was only more than seven months old. Of course, now it seems that whether the child born by Fu Fu is Fu Fengcheng is still debatable.
Lengsa was curious, "so why did Fu dujun and MS. Zhuolin divorce?"
Fu Fengcheng frowned slightly, "At that time, Ms. Zhuo was studying in the Capital University. The old man often went back and forth between the capital and Yongcheng. He knew her when he went south to work. He didn't know her well at first. He just met a few times. Only once he was drunk and woke up in the same room with her. When the old man was young, he had a housemaid, who was originally the girl of the old lady, When he gave birth to his eldest sister, he had a miscarriage and died. This was before he met Ms. Zhuo. At that time, he was only 17 or 18 years old. When he married Ms. Zhuo, they agreed that there would be no other people in the future... So when that happened, he just wanted to clean up the matter and didn't see her again after giving the Feng family a sum of money. "
Speaking of this, Fu Fengcheng showed a smile on his lips. He didn't know if he was mocking the old man's innocence, "I just didn't expect that the photos were sent to Ms. Zhuo in less than half a year. Later, the Feng family also went to the capital. They said that the affair of losing their virginity before marriage was known by their fiance's family, and the Feng family was demobilized and couldn't stay there. At that time, the old man was not in the capital, and the Feng family's old lady went to school to block Ms. Zhuo, and knelt down in public and begged her to accept her daughter. Again Later... When the old man returned to the capital, he was hit in the face by a divorce certificate. "
"..." what a big play of dog blood family ethics, "I guess Fu dujun didn't tell you this." Fu dujun is still a very dignified person. How can he tell Fu Fengcheng this?
Fu Fengcheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Prince Mu told me."
Lengsa rubbed his eyebrows and said, "no, if Fu dujun really told Feng... Cough, it doesn't matter, where did the children in her stomach come from?"
Fu Fengcheng said expressionless, "he was forced to divorce by Ms. Zhuo. He was in a bad mood. He drank too much and slept again."
"..." I admire this extreme operation.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

So he nodded and said, "it's very good." he stretched out his hand and took her into his arms. There was a little more smile in his voice, "so, my wife invited me to see the stars?"
Lengsa looked up at him with a smile and said, "yes, so is Fu Shao in a better mood?"
Fu Fengcheng was stunned and said, "I..."
Lengsa held his hand and said, "nothing. Everyone is in a bad mood. But... Can I know why you are in a bad mood?"
Fu Fengcheng lowered his head and put his forehead against her forehead. His voice was a little low and hoarse. There was an inexplicable charm in the night.
"I don't know. I'm just a little upset." Fu Fengcheng said, "maybe... The people behind the scenes really make me a little impatient."
Leng SA said, "you are not impatient."
Fu Fengcheng thought for a moment and said with a smile, "madam is right, so I said... I don't know. It's just... After listening to the old man's things in his early years, I'm a little inexplicably upset. Like... I don't know whether something good or bad will happen."
Leng SA said, "since you don't know whether it's good or bad, why are you upset?"
Fu Fengcheng said, "probably because... I don't want to change."
Lengsa didn't understand very much. She is not a delicate and considerate person.
However, Fu Fengcheng said she didn't want to change this. She still understood it. She stretched out her hand to surround him and said, "no matter how to change, as long as you are still you, I will always be by your side."
Fu Fengcheng was slightly moved and hugged her more tightly, as if to be deeply embedded in his arms. "Of course, madam will always be by my side, because... I won't give you a chance to leave. Unless... I die."
"..." Leng SA raised his head angrily and stared at him, "what nonsense?"
After sitting by the river for a while, Fu Fengcheng was obviously in a better mood.
Lengsa put his head on his knee and asked, "what did Wei Changxiu tell you tonight?"
Fu Fengcheng had expected the Liu family to be robbed, or he deliberately set a trap, waiting for people to come from the pitching net. Naturally, he won't be unhappy about it.
Then we can only move forward. At the banquet in the evening, Fu Fengcheng has been talking to Wei Changxiu. Naturally, what Wei Changxiu said.
Fu Fengcheng was silent for a while before he slowly told lengsa what Wei Changxiu told him in the evening. In fact, being upset is only a matter of a moment. When you think about it carefully, it seems that there is nothing to say.
Although she had known the relationship between Ms. Zhuolin and Wei Changxiu earlier, lengsa couldn't help feeling when people talked about the details.
It can be seen that the boundary of Anxia is really not big. You can meet people with relatives back and forth.
"Twenty seven years ago... You were born, and what happened before and after the divorce of governor Fu Jun and Ms. Zhuo Lin? It seems that this matter is quite complicated, and many people were involved in it." lengsa raised her eyebrows.
The Sheng family must have participated, but lengsa doesn't think that just because what the Sheng family did led to Zhuo Lin's divorce from Fu dujun, it can make Ms. Zhuo hate so much.
After all, it seems that Ms. Zhuo can treat Fu dujun calmly. It's like "who didn't meet two scum men when he was young and has seen it open".
If it's just because of this, Zhuo Lin should be glad that the family has let herself see someone's true face, rather than hating her family more than hating slag man.
There must have been something... That everyone, including Fu dujun, didn't know happened.
Maybe... Governor long knows? But he won't say it.
Fu Fengcheng said, "the old man and Ms. Zhuo divorced twenty-eight years ago." although there were many things on this day, Fu Dashao went to see Fu dujun and asked a little about that year.
One month after Fu dujun divorced Zhuolin, Mrs. Fu found Fu dujun and said she was one month pregnant.
For some reason, the old man and the old lady of the Fu family asked Fu dujun to marry Mrs. Fu and enter the door.
Fu Fengcheng was born six months after Mrs. Fu entered the door, that is, when the child was only more than seven months old. Of course, now it seems that whether the child born by Fu Fu is Fu Fengcheng is still debatable.
Lengsa was curious, "so why did Fu dujun and MS. Zhuolin divorce?"
Fu Fengcheng frowned slightly, "At that time, Ms. Zhuo was studying in the Capital University. The old man often went back and forth between the capital and Yongcheng. He knew her when he went south to work. He didn't know her well at first. He just met a few times. Only once he was drunk and woke up in the same room with her. When the old man was young, he had a housemaid, who was originally the girl of the old lady, When he gave birth to his eldest sister, he had a miscarriage and died. This was before he met Ms. Zhuo. At that time, he was only 17 or 18 years old. When he married Ms. Zhuo, they agreed that there would be no other people in the future... So when that happened, he just wanted to clean up the matter and didn't see her again after giving the Feng family a sum of money. "
Speaking of this, Fu Fengcheng showed a smile on his lips. He didn't know if he was mocking the old man's innocence, "I just didn't expect that the photos were sent to Ms. Zhuo in less than half a year. Later, the Feng family also went to the capital. They said that the affair of losing their virginity before marriage was known by their fiance's family, and the Feng family was demobilized and couldn't stay there. At that time, the old man was not in the capital, and the Feng family's old lady went to school to block Ms. Zhuo, and knelt down in public and begged her to accept her daughter. Again Later... When the old man returned to the capital, he was hit in the face by a divorce certificate. "
"..." what a big play of dog blood family ethics, "I guess Fu dujun didn't tell you this." Fu dujun is still a very dignified person. How can he tell Fu Fengcheng this?
Fu Fengcheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Prince Mu told me."
Lengsa rubbed his eyebrows and said, "no, if Fu dujun really told Feng... Cough, it doesn't matter, where did the children in her stomach come from?"
Fu Fengcheng said expressionless, "he was forced to divorce by Ms. Zhuo. He was in a bad mood. He drank too much and slept again."
"..." I admire this extreme operation.
There is nothing to see at the robbery scene. After all, people have been caught, and they are not police agents or private detectives.So they only went up for a turn. Liu junchong was rich in assets. Even the decoration of a branch was very elegant.Because there was chaos in the previous gunfight, and many bullet holes were left in the walls of the corridor. Fortunately, it was night when it happened. There were almost no people in the whole building. Otherwise, I'm afraid there would be many casualties.The walls in the corridor were splashed with blood, and the air was filled with a faint smell of blood, which made people who had just come out of the banquet frown."It seems that these people have arranged people around Liu junchong." the other party came here and went straight to the place where he collected gold and silver dollars without hesitation. In the whole room, there is no trace of random turning except the confusion left by the fight. It can be seen that the other party knows where to put things.Fortunately, Fu Fengcheng directly came to the door and took the people away. If they delayed and hesitated or were found later, the Fu family was investigating Liu junchong, I'm afraid they would get a body that had been dead for a long time.Fu Fengcheng nodded and said, "it should be so." but now that Liu junchong is in their hands, they naturally don't worry.If those people really dared to assassinate Liu junchong, it would save them trouble."Bring people in." Fu Fengcheng said to Xu Shaoming who followed him. Xu Shaoming didn't speak. He just nodded and turned downstairs.But for a moment, several people followed behind Xu Shaoming and came in with people."Big little."Fu Fengcheng nodded and said, "put it down."Several soldiers threw the man to the ground, saluted and turned out.Fu Fengcheng looked at lengsa and said, "Madam doesn't like the taste here. Why don't you go down and look around?"Lengsa blinked, quickly understood Fu Fengcheng's meaning, shook his head and said, "no, you ask."He got up and went to the window where half the glass was broken by the bullet, and reached out to push the window open. The cool wind at night poured in from the outside. The faint blood gas in the room was blown away by the wind, which made people feel relaxed and happy immediately.Lengsa stood at the window and looked out. Here he could just see the river not far away.At this time, there was silence outside. There were ships floating slowly on the river under the night, and the whistle sounded occasionally.In the room behind him, Fu Fengcheng sat in the chair behind the huge desk and looked at the people lying on the ground indifferently.The manager's office of this branch office is very spacious, even if there are five or six people lying horizontally, it still looks very spacious.Xu Shaoming glanced at Fu Fengcheng. When he saw Fu Fengcheng nodding, he leaned forward, grabbed one of them's hair, half picked them up, and said with a smile, "come on, who's your master?"Although the man's limbs and joints were removed, he still refused to give in, stared at Xu Shaoming fiercely, and tried his best to spit at him.Xu Shaoming's head tilted to avoid the sudden attack, and the smile on his face became deeper and deeper. Said with a smile, "we still want to play a righteous man who would rather die than surrender in our hands? Even people like Hong Tianci have been recruited. When do you think you can last?"The man's face suddenly changed when he heard the speech. It was obvious that he had heard of Hong Tianci.Since last year, they have suffered heavy losses in the six southern provinces. They were newly added at the end of the year. Although they are not on the same line with Hong Tianci, they still heard about what happened in Yongcheng and even the whole six southern provinces in the past years. How can they not feel nervous and worried?But even so, the man still clenched his teeth and said nothing. It was obvious that he was going to die.Xu Shaoming is not surprised. He has seen so many tough people these years. However, many people have a hard mouth, but not many people whose bones can really be hard to the end.Xu Shaoming grabbed the man's hair and hit his head on the ground with a thud. The man only felt that his head was hit by a heavy hammer and was about to crack in pain.Xu Shaoming pulled him up again, and a wisp of blood fell from his forehead, overflowing his eyes and flowing to his face.Xu Shaoming looked down at him. "Now you know I'm not kidding? The dragon's gate master just unloaded your hand and foot joints. As long as you install the Yangyang, it can always be good. But if we do it, I'll break your limbs one by one. Do you want to try?"The man was fascinated by the blood and barely opened his eyes. Through a layer of blood light, he saw Xu Shaoming's smiling face and couldn't help shaking.Seeing this, Xu Shaoming laughed more happily. It was easy to do if he knew he was afraid.Reaching out and patting the man on the cheek, Xu Shaoming said with a smile, "think clearly. You've screwed up. Even if we let you go back now, do you think you can live? Besides, death is not the most terrible thing in the world. The most terrible thing is... Life is not like death.""I... I..." the man looked pale. "We just follow orders and don't know anything."Xu Shaoming slightly raised his eyebrows. "I don't know anything. You commit suicide when you're caught? I don't know that the quality of local ruffians and people who collect money and work on the road is so high these days?"Xu Shaoming stood up and said to the humanitarian guard outside the door, "pull out and break his arm and leg. Knock it slowly, small by small."The two soldiers came in and didn't say much. They directly came forward, picked up the man on the ground and went outside.They didn't go far. They were in the corridor a few steps away from the door. A moment later, they heard a terrible cry outside.The rest of the people lying on the ground looked more and more ugly. Some even tried to bite their tongue and commit suicide. However, the Longmen people were ready when they caught people, and everyone had a towel in their mouth.Lengsa leaned against the window and looked at it. She shook her head disapprovingly. Biting her tongue is one of the most painful ways of suicide in the world, and the success rate is very low.Even if successful, most of them die of excessive blood loss, pain or choking. It's too much to think about the kind of quick death that can be easily and easily with a bite on TV.Xu Shaoming looked at several people on the ground and said, "what's up? Do you want to say something?"Although the people on the ground were scared to death, no one spoke.Obviously, although they think Xu Shaoming's means are cruel and terrible, there is still something to support them to shut up.Fu Fengcheng, sitting behind his desk, stared at the people on the ground, and a wisp of evil spirit was slowly spreading in his eyes.But neither the standing Xu Shaoming nor the lying people found it. Lengsa noticed something wrong with Fu Fengcheng, but she just stood up straight. Before she could say anything, she saw Fu Fengcheng suddenly stand up from behind the desk.Xu Shaoming thought Fu Fengcheng had something to say, so he stepped back and stood aside solemnly.Fu Fengcheng came out from behind the desk, grabbed a man and looked at him, "who is your master? Who sent you?"The man he held in his hand bit his teeth and said, "no... I don't know..." before he finished, Fu Dashao raised his legs and knees heavily against the man's abdomen, and then threw the man into the corner of the wall.The man was so painful that he curled up like a shrimp and made a painful groan in his mouth.There was no time for relaxation at all. Fu Fengcheng went over and grabbed his neck and looked down at each other, "said."The man said with difficulty, "I don't know..."The hand around his neck suddenly tightened, and the man couldn't help opening his eyes.The hand on his neck was like a pair of pliers, tightly pinching his neck, and the air gradually became thin. The instinct of survival made him want to struggle, but the limbs with their joints removed made him unable to move. He could only try to open his mouth to breathe, but it was obviously useless.His eyes opened wider and wider, and his face gradually became gray. The severe lack of oxygen made him feel that he was beginning to blacken before his eyes, and he was about to dieSuddenly, the hand holding his neck loosened, and a large amount of air poured in, which made him choke, but he still couldn't help but want to breathe hard, and he was in a state of tears for a time.Fu Fengcheng still squatted next to him and asked calmly, "do you know now?"The man trembled and said, "no..."This was the last word he said in the world, because Fu Fengcheng's hand broke his neck the next moment.With a slight click, the person who had just coughed awkwardly opened his eyes, there was no sound, and his neck fell to the ground at a strange angle.Fu Fengcheng stood up, turned and walked towards the rest of the people on the ground. The remaining three people looked at the man coming towards them in horror.Even if they couldn't move their limbs, they tried to rub their bodies against the floor and wanted to be farther away from Fu Fengcheng.Fu Fengcheng took out a handkerchief and slowly wiped his fingers. It was a pair of very beautiful hands, but it had just broken a man's neck.In the panic, someone finally spit out the towel stuffed in his mouth. He shouted in horror, "don't come here! Don't come here!"Xu Shaoming touched his nose. Sure enough, he didn't start hard enough?"I said! I said..." the man looked at Fu Fengcheng standing in front of him in horror and trembled.Fu Fengcheng was not surprised and calmly ordered, "ask questions."Xu Shaoming nodded hurriedly, "yes, Dashao."Fu Fengcheng glanced down at the people on the ground, "if you are still dishonest, you don't have to work hard. Kill them all."Xu Shaoming was a little surprised, "Dashao, this..." if you kill them, you have to find another clue.Fu Fengcheng sneered, "no matter how strict their mouth is, I'll kill one when I see one. One day... I can kill all. What's the hurry?"Adjutant Xu expressed his admiration that Da Shao thought so. "Yes, I see.""Madam, let's go." Fu Fengcheng didn't hurry to know the result, but looked at lengsa and whispered.Lengsa didn't say much, just nodded and walked over, holding Fu Fengcheng's hand and said, "let's go."Xu Shaoming looked at the two people who were ready to leave hand in hand. "Young lady, young lady, go slowly."The street downstairs has been blocked by the Fu family. Although many people stood, it is still quiet.They went to the car parked on the side of the road. Lengsa said to the driver, "go down and I'll drive."The driver hesitated. He didn't know whether Mrs. Fu Shao could drive or not. But he saw that Fu Dashao had pulled the door of the co driver's seat and sat in. He quickly opened the door and got out of the car, watching lengsa sit in.The car was quickly started and lengsa drove out of the blocked street.It's almost 11 p.m. at this time. Even if Jiangcheng is the most prosperous city in Anxia, most places have long been quiet.In the daytime, the streets with people coming and going are quiet. There is hardly a person or a car in the whole street. Driving a car to and from such a city can easily make people feel an absurd sense of isolation from the whole world.Lengsa looked at Fu Fengcheng sitting in the co pilot's seat and looking at him. "What's the matter? He's in a bad mood?" she found out just now that Fu Dashao is in a bad mood.Fu Fengcheng looked at the road ahead. "It's not the way back to the hotel."Leng SA nodded and said, "I can't catch up with the banquet now. I'm leaving tomorrow. It's better to take the opportunity to see Jiangcheng. I haven't visited Jiangcheng yet."Fu Fengcheng said, "when you come back from the capital, if your wife likes, we can come to Jiangcheng to live for a period of time."Leng SA smiled, "OK, but I'm afraid it's not easy to wait for Fu Shao to have time?"Fu Fengcheng said, "if your wife likes it, she will have time."Lengsa's driving speed is not slow. Even after a detour, he stopped by the river in a short time.At this time, the river became more quiet, and even the passing cargo ships could hardly be seen. Only a few search boats were moored by the river. They all stopped quietly. I don't know if there is anyone.After getting out of the car, lengsa took Fu Fengcheng forward for a while, found a flat grass and sat down.Fu Fengcheng did not ask why, but let her pull herself to sit down.Lengsa leaned on his shoulder, looked lazily at the sparkling river and said, "the weather is very good tonight."Fu Fengcheng looked up at the sky. At the beginning of the month, he couldn't see any moonlight. Instead, the sky was full of stars. It looked very beautiful. So he nodded and said, "it's very good." he stretched out his hand and took her into his arms. There was a little more smile in his voice, "so, my wife invited me to see the stars?"Lengsa looked up at him with a smile and said, "yes, so is Fu Shao in a better mood?"Fu Fengcheng was stunned and said, "I..."Lengsa held his hand and said, "nothing. Everyone is in a bad mood. But... Can I know why you are in a bad mood?"Fu Fengcheng lowered his head and put his forehead against her forehead. His voice was a little low and hoarse. There was an inexplicable charm in the night."I don't know. I'm just a little upset." Fu Fengcheng said, "maybe...
