Stage [Republic of China]

He took out a black box gun from his waist, and pointed the gun at Xu Jishan's forehead.

Xu Jishan raised her eyes, the gun...! The distance between the barrel and his forehead was only three or four centimeters.At such a close distance, it seems that the smell of gunpowder smoke can be smelled clearly.

Xu Jishan fell silent, her sharp lips pursed tightly.

Qin Er rarely saw that he stopped talking, snorted proudly, and reinserted the box gun.! Put the gun back into the holster. "Walk!"

With a wave of Qin Ershao's hand, the two Oriental gendarmes behind him looked left and right, and followed him in not far or near.

It's broken, and Shui Jiu is still locked inside.This beast rushed in angrily, maybe it was just to grind Shui Jiu.

Xu Jishan hurriedly paced back and forth, clapping her hands lightly, with beads of sweat the size of soybeans rolling down her forehead.

"My master, my master! Oh, I have caught up with you!"

Xu Jishan turned her head abruptly, it turned out that it was the shopkeeper of Longyu Mihang running after her with a robe in her hand.There was a small rattan box under the shopkeeper's armpit, and he was running out of breath.

"What are you doing here?" Xu Jishan was annoyed, her thick eyebrows frowned so much that they could tie knots.

"Boss, you forgot to bring the money!" The shopkeeper said these words in a moderate voice, as if he intended to let the two officials in the patrol room hear.

The eyes of the two officials really shined.

Xu Jishan's heart suddenly brightened, she reached out to take the rattan box, and whispered a word of comfort. "Thank you, Shopkeeper Lu."

"What's the matter, what's the matter! As long as we are doing things for the master, how dare we quit hard work!"

When Xu Jishan turned around holding the rattan box, the expressions of the two officials immediately changed.

Jingxi Mansion now uses cash, and prices have skyrocketed, and 30 cash can only be exchanged for one liter of rice.So Xu Jishan deliberately opened the rattan box under the sun, and deliberately muttered something in a low voice. "Shopkeeper Lu, how many bags of rice do you think we have left?"

Shopkeeper Lu immediately understood, and answered the words fluently: "The rice in our Longyu shop is in short supply every day, and it is not enough to sell. To tell the truth to my boss, I have hidden several bags of rice, just in case there is a famine caused by war. "

Xu Jishan turned her face again, looked at the two officials and said, "This rattan box, together with two bags of rice, will show respect to the two officials. I just want to follow behind and take a look at him quietly, is that possible?"

The two officials were both moved, but they were afraid that Er Shao Qin would cause trouble inside, so they hesitated and said, "But...Master Qin just went in."

Xu Jishan rattled her fists, waited, and then suppressed her anger and said in a low voice, "It's okay, I'll wait for Master Qin to finish his work."

This time, Xu Jishan waited for a full hour and a half under the sun.

With great difficulty, Qin Ershao swaggered out from inside.With just one glance, I saw Xu Jishan standing under the poisonous sun, limp, like a straw seedling that had just been whipped with a board.

Qin Ershao immediately raised his eyebrows, even if the bandages only exposed his nostrils, mouth and a pair of sneaky eyes, it didn't stop him from arrogance. "Hey, Big Merchant Xu is really an infatuated guy! What's the matter, you're here, are you still hoping to get in?"

As Qin Ershao spoke, he turned around and tapped the noses of the two officials. "Listen to me! No one is allowed to let him in today. If he slips in, I will break your legs if you turn around carefully."

"Yes!"

The two officials stood up straight and responded, but unfortunately, the servants in the Yamen Mansion have not trained all year round and smoked opium. Even the movements of standing upright and returning the salute seemed a bit more delayed than others.

Xu Jishan remained calm, and only turned his face away after Qin Ershao got into the car and sped away.The two officials pouted at him, and Xu Jishan lowered the brim of his hat, stepped away, and entered the cell.

The layout of the patrol room is completely different from that of the prison in the Yamen. You have to go through the stone gate first, and then there is a big iron gate.Beside the iron gate sat a jailer with a large bunch of keys clanging around his waist.

When the gatekeeper saw Xu Jishan coming in, he was startled.

Xu Jishan lowered the brim of her hat. "Come in and see someone, say a few words and leave."

As he spoke, he quietly pushed his hand forward on the table.He kept touching the back of the officer's hand, and then quietly retracted his hand.

Pushing past was a wad of million dollar bills.

The jailer wiped the cash under the table calmly, caught it with his legs, and without making a sound, just pushed his mouth into it again.

Xu Jishan went all the way in, searching one by one.In the innermost room, the light was dim, and Shui Jiu was lying on the ground with her arms and legs curled up.

Looking at the past, Xu Jishan's eyes were broken. "He lynched you?!"

Xu Jishan grabbed the iron fence with his big hands, wishing he could turn into a breeze and slip through the gap in the fence.

Shui Jiu reluctantly opened her eyes, and looked out from the cracks in her eyelids, only seeing a group of black Qiuqiu figures. "……who?"

Breathless.

Xu Jishan's heart ached more and more.Shui Jiu had obviously just been hung up and beaten, the silk mandarin jacket she wore when she went out in the morning had been stripped off a long time ago, the moon white gown was torn with several slender cuts, and her back was bloody and bloody.

It must be Qin Ershao!That beast likes whipping people the most.

Xu Jishan's eyes were burning with hatred, but in front of Shui Jiu, he had to suppress all his emotions, and comforted him with a gentle voice: "Don't worry, I'm already asking someone to find a way out. At most, today's In the evening, I will be able to take you home."

"……It's you?"

Shui Jiu tried her best to support the ground with her palms, and wanted to get up several times, but her breath was uneven.After a long while, he finally sat up slowly curled up, his right leg twitched unnaturally, and his eyes drooped. "Don't get involved in this muddy water, go home."

Xu Jishan clenched her fists, her teeth were clenched, and she popped out a sentence after a while. "It's already this hour, and you're still talking to me like this!"

This sentence was said with a blunt, inexplicable ruthlessness.

Shui Jiu raised her head unconsciously, Danfeng's eyes and tails were bruised, and blood was oozing from her nostrils one after another.The blood that had just dried up was washed away by fresh blood, making him even more embarrassed.

Shui Jiu also knew that she couldn't see her face right now.The bones of his body were also half-damaged by Qin Ershao's whipping, and even his right leg... cold white fingers gently supported his right leg with trembling fingers.Amidst the amplified sound of breathing, he sighed faintly. "...Why bother?"

I don't know whether to sigh why Xu Jishan is running around for him, or why I and Xu Jishan broke into the theater angrily this morning and caused such a catastrophe?

Xu Jishan didn't want to pursue the meaning of this man's words either.Now that the idea has been made and the gift has been sent out, man, he must take it home.

"Ah, ah—it's about time!"

Across layers of dark and damp stone cells, the jailer with a bunch of keys jingling around his waist raised his voice and began to urge.

Shui Jiu's eyelids twitched.Xu Jishan firmly grasped the fence with both hands, and said bitterly, "You wait for me here. I will definitely take you back tonight."

After Xu Jishan finished speaking, she turned her head and was about to leave, but Shui Jiu suddenly called him - "Jishan."

This is the first time Shui Jiu called him Ji Shan openly.Shui Jiu has a good voice, clear and lingering, with a trembling ending, and Shui Mo's tune has nine tunes and eighteen bends.

Xu Jishan's heart was beating like a drum on a battlefield.He breathed heavily for a moment, turned his head, and stared fiercely at Shui Jiu with eagle eyes.

Shui Jiu slowly raised her eyelids to meet his fierce eagle eyes, half-curled her lips, and smiled.

No matter how embarrassed a beauty is, she is still a beauty.Once Shui Jiu laughed, even the blood and bruises couldn't damage his beauty, on the contrary, it made him more miserable and moving.

"I don't want you to redeem me back." Shui Jiu shook her head lightly, meeting Xu Jishan's eyes that seemed to be eating people. "I used to be entangled with Qin Ershao. These days, from Jibei to Jingxi Mansion, I weighed it over and over again. About, I am a hard-working person. Last time I was in Hebei Paramount, I was lucky to have you Helping each other, I was able to live on until now. Now, probably the injustice has come to an end. I will go to settle my own grudges, and you will..."

Shui Jiu sighed, and said quietly: "Ji Shan, from now on, you can live your life well."

These words sounded like last words, inexplicably ominous.

Xu Jishan gritted her teeth angrily, and said to him word by word: "You are the bride that my Xu family is going to marry. You have been humiliated like this. How can you make me feel so bad?"

Shui Jiu's heart trembled, looking at Xu Jishan, her throat suddenly choked up.

"You are waiting for me!"

Clang clang clang, the jailer outside is urging again.The jailer deliberately slapped his palm on the table, jingling the bells, and the ears of those who made the noise were all messed up.

Xu Jishan seized the gap, and finally gave a quick reminder. "Don't worry. Here, no matter who asks you, you don't do it, and you must not admit it. At most four or five hours, I will take you back."

There was no rhetoric, nor heart-piercing, but Shui Jiu inexplicably understood that this was the deep friendship that the man in front of him could promise him for a lifetime.

Shui Jiu's lips trembled slightly, and her eyes were inexplicably wet.

"I'm in the car today, I said it too harshly, it's my fault." Xu Jishan was still apologizing to him earnestly. "When this catastrophe is over, let's go home together, and I'll take you to see Grandpa. Ajiu, I, Xu, treat you with sincerity."

"You...you don't want to say any more." Shui Jiu turned her head away, almost daring to look at him.

Xu Jishan laughed at herself in the endlessly gloomy stone cell.Shui Jiu avoided him, and would rather be whipped by Qin Ershao than protect that damned Ning Jimin.he can't
