Chapter 289
Chu Qing lowered her eyes, covering the deep meaning in her eyes, turned her head, followed Li Tianxiao and others, and carried the slave back to the cell.

When Li Tianxiao saw her turn around, he also wanted to turn around, but was called out by Chu Qing calmly: "Don't look back, none of the guards here is in a hurry, they are all scum, if you offend them, don't There will be good fruit to eat." It's just that the guard's eyes just now made her feel uncomfortable, maybe she was thinking too much.

She raised her hand and touched her face. She deliberately made her face allergic before she came, so she probably won't be interested in her anymore.

"What were you looking at just now?" Chu Qing's words made Li Tianxiao calm down.

Chu shook his head lightly, not wanting to worry Li Tianxiao: "It's nothing, it's just that the guard was staring at us just now, probably worried about us, I'll see if they mean to follow. Is there any news about Master Tian?"

Li Tianxiao shook his head, "No, before they plan to act, they will send out a signal flare, and they will know when the time comes." This was an agreement before they acted. Find a way to hide and avoid being accidentally injured.

However, being interrupted by Chu Qing, Li Tianxiao didn't care about the previous matter. They carried the slave who had almost died suddenly back to the cell. At this time, because it was time to go to work, there was no one in the cell, only a few The guards probably got the news a long time ago, and after letting them in, they ignored them.

The hidden guard carried the man to their cell, and Chu Qing took the opportunity to ask, how did Li Tianxiao spend these two days?

After learning that these guards were waiting for Chu Qing to be taken away, someone came and beat Li Tianxiao and the others.

The three of them first resisted in anger, then confessed, and when they became honest, they began to be led to work.

Li Tianxiao lowered his voice: "They are really building a mausoleum. It's very big inside. No wonder hundreds of people have been working on it for several months and haven't finished it. I'm afraid that all these people won't survive until the mausoleum is completed."

Chu Qing frowned: "Master, do you know whose tomb they built belongs to?"

Since it is a mausoleum, there must be someone lying in it in the future, right?

This Yufeng Town took such a big risk, hundreds of lives, I don't know which Shangfeng of this county magistrate is so courageous, does he not want to die?
The mausoleum occupies a vast area. Except for the royal family, few people would dare to do this, for fear of dissatisfying the superiors and causing the emperor to dislike it.

Li Tianxiao's face was not very good-looking, obviously he hated this matter deeply, and he absolutely must be severely punished, but the most important thing now is to rescue these innocent people.

If they hadn't found out by accident this time, I'm afraid that after the mausoleum was completed, it would be unknown how many people's lives would be buried here with this mausoleum.

Li Tianxiao shook his head, "Wait to rescue these people first, and then torture them to extract confessions. If you don't believe me, you won't be able to find out."

Chu Qing hummed, and now she can only do so.

When the slave was placed on the straw mat in the prison cell, the man's consciousness was still not very clear, probably because he was too tired before, and now he was panting, but his eyes had not been opened.

Chu Qing squatted down, checked his pulse, and found that the heartbeat of the other party was still a little slow, and his body was thin, probably due to the long-term labor in the past few months, his body was extremely unhealthy, his back was arched, his hands were covered with wounds, and his body was also bruised. Bruises, probably because there is no chance to shave here. There is a long beard on the chin, and the eye sockets are deep-set, but if you look carefully at the eyebrows and eyes, if you don't look tired, it would be pretty good.But if you think about it, those who can be favored by the head of the criminal government naturally have a good family background, well-maintained, and good looks.

"How is it?" Seeing Chu Qing frowning, Li Tianxiao asked.

"I'm fine now, but my heart is beating slowly. I'm afraid I need to recuperate for a few days, otherwise... I'm afraid that if I get tired again, it will cause sudden death. Isn't this the same as the person who died suddenly on the street before? I'm afraid it was the other party. It was almost unbearable before, but in the end...or..."

Chu Qing shook her head regretfully, the voices of the two were very low, but suddenly, the person who had her eyes closed tightly opened, and at that moment, the eyes were a bit sharp, Chu Qing inadvertently Looking over, he froze for a moment, "You?"

The man quickly closed his eyebrows, looked around blankly, his voice was a little hoarse: "I...why am I here? I don't remember that I am..." He touched his heart, probably remembering before he fell into a coma My heart is extremely uncomfortable.

The hidden guard said from the side: "My wife saved you, otherwise, you would be a corpse now."

The man glanced at the clothes Chu Qing and Li Tianxiao were wearing, and found that they were slaves like him. His body that was originally tense and vigilant slowly relaxed, lowered his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Thank you."

Chu Qing was stunned when he heard the other party's accent, and exchanged a glance with Li Tianxiao. The other party turned out to have a capital accent: "You are from the capital? I don't know how to call you?"

The corner of the man's mouth twitched mockingly, "Is there still a need for a name in this ghostly place now? Those things always feel like things from the last life."

The other party's negative eyebrows fell into the eyes of Chu Qing and the others. Li Tianxiao glanced at the hidden guard twice, and the dark guard responded calmly, and stood guard outside the cell, watching from all directions to prevent anyone from eavesdropping. guard.

Li Tianxiao squatted down, stared at the other party and said, "Can I ask you a few things?"

The man frowned, lying there weakly, "If you ask about your identity, you don't need to. I'm just a bone now, and I can live as long as I can..." After finishing speaking, he immediately closed his eyes .

Li Tianxiao pondered, looked at Chu Qing, Chu Qing nodded, this person was almost beaten to death by the guards, and it seemed that he had been suffering for several months, it couldn't be the guards, and the other party stayed for so long , I am afraid that he is the most familiar with this place, and it is the easiest to inquire about information from him.

Li Tianxiao said: "We don't ask this, how long have you been here?"

"How long?" The man sighed, "Four or five months."

"Then do you know for whom this tomb was built?" Li Tianxiao asked.

"Huh?" The man suddenly opened his eyes, "Why are you asking these questions?"

Li Tianxiao remained vigilant and did not intend to reveal his identity right now: "It's nothing, we came to Yufeng Town for a walk, but we didn't expect to be tricked into coming here, you have seen it, such high-intensity labor, I'm afraid that my body will collapse within a month, and I know a little bit. Once this mausoleum is completed, we are afraid that we will be buried alive in the ground of this mountain range, and it is impossible for us to go out, so... I think know how to get out."

The man stared at Li Tianxiao for a long time before he twitched the corner of his mouth mockingly: "Escape? Do you think it's so easy? This place looks simple, but in fact there are many levels. From here to outside, there are also several directions. , Do you think that people here have never escaped? You can’t escape... Even if you escaped... I’m afraid..." The man shook his head, probably because his vitality was really hurt, and he coughed desperately.

Chu Qing checked his pulse again, seeing that he was emotionally unstable, quickly searched for a few acupoints, started to pinch, and finally helped the other party stop coughing, the other party covered his mouth, looked up at Chu Qing, he was completely indifferent to Chu Qing There was no hostility, "Are you a doctor?"

Chu shook his head lightly: "No, I just understand a little bit, don't get angry, be careful of hurting your body, the loss outweighs the gain."

The man rubbed the center of his eyebrows, showing his slender fingers, but the large and small wounds on his hands ruined the beauty, he said: "It's too difficult to escape, what is the person you mentioned earlier who died suddenly like I did before?" What do you mean? You saw it in Yufeng Town?"

Chu Qing was surprised by the sharp reaction of the other party. For some reason, she always felt that the other party must know something: "Yes, we came to Yufeng Town for fun, and that person died outside the inn we were staying at that time. We took a look curiously, and I found The death of that person was very abnormal, but after we said a few words, the criminal yatou was very rude to us and almost locked us up. Just because of this, we offended the criminal yamen, and he actually found someone to lay us down Medicine, brought us here."

Chu Qing said half-truth and half-falsely.However, she took a closer look and found that this person's gaze was even more ugly, with some complicated emotions.

"What? You know the other party? Now that I think about it, the death of that person is very similar to yours. Later, I heard that the head of the criminal government took him to Yizhuang. We wanted to pay homage to him, but we didn't expect the body to disappear. , This is really strange." Chu Qing said so, while observing the expression of this person, she saw that the pupils of the other party shrank, and she was almost sure that the other party knew the person who died suddenly.

It's just that when Chu Qing and Li Tianxiao were looking at this person, this person was also looking at them. After thinking for a long time, his eyes glanced at Li Tianxiao's body, and his pupils shrank: "Who are you guys?"

Li Tianxiao shook the hand behind his back, "Why do you ask such a question?"

"You don't look like a simple rich businessman to me... There are two types of people that these people snatched, one is a rich businessman; the other is a beggar, the former was brought here by them. The latter was tricked by them. But no matter which of these two types of people, they are treated exactly the same now, life is worse than death, and they just live on. But it seems that the former is more miserable, with their families ruined..."

Li Tianxiao looked into each other's eyes, and the two stared at each other without giving in. Li Tianxiao pondered for a long time, and said directly: "We were sent by the government to rescue you from the sea of ​​suffering."

"Master!" The two hidden guards outside were stunned and let out a low voice.

Li Tianxiao waved his hand, his sharp gaze was still fixed on the other party: "So, can you tell us?"
