Mountain and sea lantern

Chapter 26 Release
Is it necessary to be so hasty? Du Huoguan had to remind him: "Prison Master, although the Qi family's own strength is limited, the backers behind them in the Heavenly Court cannot be underestimated. Killing their daughter without giving a reason is really unjustifiable, and the Heavenly Court cannot explain it either."

Nie turned around and sat on the brocade couch, and asked, "Why was Shi Chun arrested?"

Officer Du: “Theft.”

Nie: "Then steal."

"..." Du Huoguan was speechless. Qi Yueru came to visit the prison and stole something, and the city guards were all decorations. You had to kill him with your own hands. Is this a reasonable reason? If you tell it to others, someone has to believe it.

However, he soon understood the intention. It was right that the reason was unjustifiable, because it was the only way to save the person.

Anyway, he will have to take care of the fabrication of charges himself later.

After thinking it through, he reminded: "Qi Yueru should know who the traitor is."

"It's your job to investigate the traitor." Nie said this, obviously feeling that he had been nagging too much. He lifted his feet and lay down on the couch sideways, and added another explanation: "Shi Chun can be released, and the case of theft will not be closed. Tell them that if they find new clues, they will be brought in for trial at any time."

"Ah?" Even the imposing Du Huoguan was a little dumbfounded. He let people go free and let them leave the exile land, but he could still arrest them at any time. How could this be possible? There was no such precedent in the exile land. He was worried that he had misunderstood and couldn't help but confirm: "Are you releasing them out of the city or releasing them into prison?"

After asking this question, I immediately felt that my question was a bit redundant.

As expected, the prison warden looked too lazy to answer.

But he still asked the question in his heart, "Prison Master, why do you want to protect a small figure like Shichun?"

"Since you can ask the question, there's no need for explanation." Nie Danmo responded and slowly closed his eyes.

It was clear that he didn't want to pay any more attention to it, so Du Huoguan had no choice but to leave with doubts.

Shi Chun in the duel arena kept looking around, feeling bored and lonely. He didn't know what it meant now. It seemed as if no one paid attention to him. He looked at the city guard who was beating the drum. The latter stood beside the drum stand without moving, and would occasionally glance at him.

In fact, Shi Chun had already discovered that there were two people on the top of the pavilion. He saw it before the strange scene in his right eye disappeared, but he pretended that he saw nothing.

For him, the biggest discovery was not what the right eye saw, but how to stimulate the ability of the right eye.

Nervous! Yes, that is nervous. As long as one's emotions enter a nervous state, the strange ability of the right eye will be stimulated.

The problem that I had been thinking about before became vaguely realized when I was being tortured in prison.

When he first entered the Zhixu City Prison and faced interrogation, he really couldn't help being nervous. As a result, the ability of his right eye came out as soon as he was nervous. This allowed him to vaguely grasp the common points when his special abilities were activated several times, but he was not sure.

He didn't expect that the opportunity for him to get confirmation would come so soon. The sudden appearance of the Green Fox demon made him very nervous in an instant.

In the end, his guess was confirmed that tension could stimulate the special power of his right eye.

At the door downstairs, Du Huoguan came out. Shi Chun didn't know who he was, but he had met him in prison before.

Du Huoguan raised his hand and called over the city guard who was beating the drum, and told him to take Shi Chun away for record.

There is no way. The warden of the prison said that the case will not be closed. We have to leave some basis for bringing people back from the outside world at any time. Otherwise, how can we bring people back from the outside world in the future? The Sheng Prison has no jurisdiction over the outside world, and it is impossible for others to allow you, the Sheng Prison, to interfere at will within their power. On the other hand, will your Sheng Prison allow the outside world to interfere at will?
In the guest room, several city guards came and knocked on the door.

Qi Yueru opened the door anxiously, and seeing several people outside, she became a little alert and asked, "What's the matter?"

The leader said, "You have stayed here too long. The prison inspector has ordered you to be expelled. Take your things and leave."

Qi Yueru was eager to get out quickly, so she immediately obeyed the order, picked up her belongings and went out.

After being taken to the gate of Wengcheng, the last measure was to conduct a body search on her. Because she was a woman, the women in the city guards would do the search. Qi Yueru cooperated obediently, but as soon as she turned around, she was hit hard and blood spurted out. Before she could react, she was pushed to the ground.

Someone covered her mouth immediately, and someone grabbed her arms and legs and broke them one by one, making her scream in pain.

That was a truly ruthless move, and it was no joke at all. Especially the act of covering her mouth, which immediately made her realize that she was exposed and Ba Yingshan wanted to silence her!

She was unwilling to give in and immediately wanted to scream out to expose the truth, but she held back the words when they came to her lips.

If she exposes Ba Yingshan, she will not survive, and Ba Yingshan will also expose the Qi family, where her closest relatives are.

Before she came, her family secretly told her that if her trip was exposed, she would have to bear all the responsibility alone, as it would be her personal behavior.

If she hadn't kept this in mind, she might have actually called out Ba Yingshan's name just now.

"What are you going to do, what are you going to do..." Qi Yueru whimpered, screamed and struggled.

Seeing that she was about to be silenced and had not revealed the other party's information, the man who had indicated the action raised his head and looked towards the top of the city wall.

Du Huoguan showed his face behind the wall and looked at the person who was pinned down below. He felt a little sorry. He knew that the person would never speak again without saying anything.

The warden only makes decisions, and he also has to take care of other things. As the warden said, catching the traitor is your job.

Seeing that he failed, he tilted his head slightly to signal, and the man who looked up below understood, and immediately walked to the side of Qi Yueru who was pinned down, leaned over and punched Qi Yueru in the center of the back, directly making a dent in his back.

Fresh blood spurted out from between the five fingers that were covering Qi Yueru's mouth. Qi Yueru, with blood oozing from all his orifices, had a face full of pain and despair. He didn't even have time to feel annoyed or regretful. He twitched a few times and then became motionless.

Crack! Fearing that she would not die, someone twisted her neck again.

Then the body was dragged away unscrupulously all the way to the inner city gate and hung up with a rope.

The execution process from beginning to end was swift, decisive and merciless.

Soon a crowd of people gathered to watch, and the city guards deliberately spread the news that the prison warden had killed him for stealing.

What? The prison master took action personally? Like a stone that caused a thousand waves, everyone was buzzing and talking, and the news spread rapidly.

At Bowang Tower, Lan Qiaoyan, who heard the news, was in disbelief. She personally went to the gate of the inner city to confirm that the deceased was indeed Qi Yueru.

Not to mention outsiders, even the city guards were shocked after hearing the news, suspecting it was just a rumor. Would the prison master take action for such a small matter? However, after learning that it was said by his colleagues, he had to believe it because his colleagues did not dare to say anything about the prison master.

Naturally, the news also reached Ba Yingshan's ears, and he was so frightened that he lost his mind and continued to hide in the house to avoid suspicion.

He didn't believe that the prison warden would kill Qi Yueru for such a small matter. Why did he need to tell him why? He could only hope that Qi Yueru didn't betray him before she died...

Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang, who were ragged and covered with scars, also walked out of the inner city gate and were released. Their weapons and bags were returned to them.

Seeing the group of people blocking the door, Wu Jinliang said, "Are they here to welcome us, or are they waiting to see us?"

They soon realized that they were overthinking. They saw that the direction everyone was pointing was above the city gate. The two people who walked out of the gate looked up and saw the hanging female corpse, neither of them recognized it.

Wu Jinliang exclaimed again and asked the onlookers, "What's going on?"

There were so many things he didn't know, he didn't even know that Shi Chun next to him had already fought a duel with someone for their lives.
