Concubine

Chapter 34
Hu San is a repeat offender, and he was locked in a separate room in the North Repeat Offender Cell.In front of the cell is a fence lined with a row of large logs as thick as an arm.There was a toilet in the back corner, the lid was thrown aside, and there was a stench coming out of the toilet. There was a pile of straw on the ground, damp and moldy, and a horizontal cage was placed in the middle, like a big box, divided into upper and lower The two parts were sandwiched in the middle with Hu San facing up, and the head, hands and feet protruded from the holes in the wooden box. They were locked and bolted together with iron chains, and then connected to the wall.

Yang Qiuchi asked Da Banya: "Why is he locked like this? Then how can he defecate?"

Da Banya smiled apologetically and said, "Master, according to the regulations, the murderer is only in the cage at night. After the brothers put him in the cage last night, they didn't bother to untie him during the day."

"Oh? Why is that?"

Da Banya leaned into Yang Qiuchi's ear: "Young Master Yin gave us 30 taels of silver, and asked us to take good care of this guy. So, hehehei...he had to pull it in his crotch if he wanted to relieve himself." Paused After a pause, he said again, "Master Yang, we didn't dare to touch the 30 taels of silver. After you come, you decide how to divide it.

When Yang Qiuchi heard this, he thought to himself, the money came really fast, so he asked, "How did you divide it before?"

"Half of the supervisor, and the other half is divided equally among the brothers of the prison guards."

"Half? So much?"

Dabanya quickly bowed his waist and said, "Master Yang, you take [-]%, and the rest will be divided among the brothers. What do you think?"

ah?Yang Qiuchi was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly: "You misunderstood, I mean my half is too much, and you have so many talents to divide half, isn't it too little?"

Dabanya breathed a sigh of relief: "My lord, you manage the entire prison, we brothers can all see the hard work, and the filial money sent outside is not all for your old face. You only take Half of it is completely taking care of the brothers, besides, these are all the rules left over from the past."

"Well, since that's the case, let's continue as usual."

"Okay, I'll go tell my brothers and bring you the silver." Da Banya hummed a little tune and left.

Yang Qiuchi leaned on the cell fence and looked inside.I saw that Hu San's eyes were closed tightly, and a low moan of pain came out of his mouth.The wounds left on my buttocks, thighs and two ankles when I hit the board with a stick yesterday have scabbed over.Many flies are crawling on it, flying up from time to time, making a buzzing sound.

Yang Qiuchi shouted: "Hu San!"

After calling several times in a row, Hu San still didn't move.

The little black dog that had been following Yang Qiuchi stuck its head into the fence and barked for a while. Hu Sancai tried to open his eyes and looked at Yang Qiuchi. His chapped lips moved, but he couldn't speak.

Yang Qiuchi said: "Did you kill the Bai sisters?"

Hu San shook his head, trying to nod, but the thick iron chain tightly tied around his neck hindered his movement.

The kid nodded and admitted, most likely because he was thinking that he had already confessed yesterday anyway, and if he retracted the confession, he would suffer again.It should not be what he had in mind.Yang Qiuchi slowed down his tone: "Don't worry, I won't torture you. Tell the truth, what's going on?"

Hu San tried his best to open his swollen eyes wide, and looked at Yang Qiuchi with difficulty, not knowing what his intention was.

At this time, Da Banya came back with a small bag in his hand, humming a little tune, and handed the small bag to Yang Qiuchi: "Master Yang, take it."

Yang Qiuchi took the small bag, squeezed it, and stuffed it into his arms.He ordered: "You go and get a chair, I want to ask this Hu San some things."

"Okay, I'll get it now, villain." Da Banya turned to leave, but was stopped by Yang Qiuchi again: "Wait, tell someone to take Hu San's cage first, so it's not easy to ask questions."

Big Ban Ya bowed his waist and agreed.After a while, together with several guards, they came back carrying a grand master's chair, and brought a small coffee table, and put tea, snacks, pens, ink, paper and inkstone.A jailer opened the cell door, went in and opened Hu San's cage, and shouted: "Hey! Get up and kneel down, our Lord Yang wants to ask you something!"

Hu San's hands and feet were pinched all night, and he was already stiff and unable to move. Hearing this, he bent his hands with difficulty, trying to turn over and get up, but there were dozens of iron chains locked on his body. The heavy weight, plus the torture last night and the night in the cage, has already been tortured beyond human shape, and it took a long time to turn over.

Da Banya pouted at the other guards. The two guards nodded and walked into the cage. The three of them helped Hu San up. The wounds on his thighs and buttocks had dried up, and blood scabs stuck to his pants. This movement caused pain in the wound, and Hu San lay on the haystack, half kneeling and half prone, moaning loudly.

The jailer kicked Hu San hard on the ass: "Cry your mother for mourning! Then tell me to make you look good."

This kick just hit the wound on Hu San's buttocks, causing him to scream in pain, and fell to the ground, trying to restrain himself from moaning.The jailers stepped forward and grabbed his hair and shoulders, dragged him up and knelt down.

Yang Qiuchi waved his hand: "Okay, you all go out, I want to ask him alone."

All the guards agreed in unison, and locked the cell door to prevent the criminal from rushing out and injuring Lord Yang, and then bowed and exited the cell.

Yang Qiuchi* lay on the head of the little black dog beside him, and asked Hu San: "I'll ask you again, did you kill the two sisters of the Bai family? You have to tell the truth, this is your last chance .”

When Hu San heard this, he burst into tears and kowtowed desperately: "My lord! My lord, I was wronged! I really didn't kill the two of them! I beg you, my lord, I was really wronged, old man Save the villain's life, and in the next life, we will form a grass ring to repay your great kindness!" The sound of kowtowing and the rattling of the iron chain around his neck rang together.

Yang Qiuchi waited for his crying to subside before asking, "Want to drink water?"

Hu San raised his head and stared at Yang Qiuchi in a daze. Hearing the word drink water, his chapped lips seemed to burst into flames.He didn't dare to nod, for fear that this was deliberately teasing himself.

Yang Qiuchi picked up the teapot and passed it in through the fence. Hu San hesitated for a moment, then took it carefully, looked at Yang Qiuchi again, raised his neck, and drank the big pot of tea in one gulp.He choked on drinking too much, put down the empty teapot and coughed violently.

After a long time, he calmed down slowly, kowtowed to Yang Qiuchi a few times to express his gratitude, and then handed the teapot back to Yang Qiuchi.

Yang Qiuchi took the teapot, put it on the table, and asked slowly: "Okay, please tell the truth in detail."

Hu San drank some water, regained his energy, and said slowly: "I went to the street at noon yesterday to do some errands, and I stopped by to find Mrs. Xie Gua, and wanted to have sex with her, but she happened to be out..."

"Who are you, Widow Xie?"

Hu San hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head and said, "She, she is my girlfriend, and she has been dating for almost a year."

"Well, you go on."
