Chapter 1161 A Little Skill Shown to Intimidate the Officials
Crown Prince Xiao Jingye embraced the frightened Fang Haoqing and gently patted her. Just as he was about to speak, he noticed that among the dozens of horses that suddenly appeared opposite them... there was another person!
Xiao Jingye looked closely and saw that the man was dressed in the uniform of an official, and like the dozens of horses around him, he was also motionless.
This person must be one of the pursuers who chased them out of the city.
Can……
Xiao Jingye was a little puzzled—there were as many as a hundred or so officials chasing after them, so why were there dozens of horses but only one person in the space?
Just as Xiao Jingye was about to take Fang Haoqing closer to take a look, two more people suddenly appeared not far away after they had just stepped across the stream.
This time, it was Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu who appeared.
"Ayu, Rongyue, you're back. Are you alright?"
Have you dealt with the pursuers outside?
Crown Prince Xiao Jingye eagerly stepped forward and asked.
Your Majesty, rest assured, we are fine. We have dealt with the pursuers outside without bloodshed!
Here they are! Except for a few horses that got scared and ran away, the rest of the horses they rode here are all here!
"Everyone's been brought in!"
Xiao Jingyu pointed to a large group of horses lying on the ground and a person who had also fallen to the ground, and said.
"Didn't they bring all the people in?"
Why is there only one?
Xiao Jingye then took a closer look at the official lying among the dozens of horses...
"This person... must be the leader of this group of pursuers. I saw him through the binoculars earlier. He was riding a horse and shouting as he rode at the very front!"
Xiao Jingyu nodded, "Your Majesty is right."
This person is the leader.
He and his men had all been drugged and stored in his spatial dimension, but those people had been thrown to another location;
And this leader... he should know a lot about Zhu Gefu's secrets and shady dealings.
The reason we're keeping him here is to interrogate him first, and then we'll go into Qilin Mountain!
"I see!"
Xiao Jingye understood.
"Without further ado, let's begin the interrogation!"
But...this person is still unconscious, who knows when they will wake up?
Xiao Jingye looked at Leng Rongyue and Xiao Jingyu and asked.
"I can wake him up whenever I want; all I need is a bowl of cold water!"
Leng Rongyue said with a smile.
As she spoke, a delicate porcelain bowl appeared in Leng Rongyue's hand.
A bowl of cool stream water was ready, and Leng Rongyue carried it over and splashed the entire bowl of cold water onto the face of the leading official.
The water was spilled, and the bowl in his hand disappeared instantly.
The unconscious head constable was splashed with a bowl of cold water, which jolted him awake!
Opening my sleepy eyes, the first thing I saw was a clear blue sky and white clouds...
As he struggled to sit up, the officer was terrified when he saw the dozens of horses lying dead around him...
Looking around again... something's not right!
It's already late autumn/early winter, and most trees, except for pines and cypresses, are withered and yellow, but here...
How come the flowers, plants and trees here are so lush, green and verdant?
No, no... Where am I?
At this moment, the only thing the head constable was certain of was that this was not the official road at the foot of Qilin Mountain!
He wondered...was he already...dead?
Have they already gone to hell?
But is hell... really this beautiful?
Is hell as beautiful as paradise?
When the head constable turned around sharply to look in the other direction, he was unsurprisingly startled again!
"what!"
The head constable cried out in surprise, his eyes widening suddenly!
He saw the handsome man and beautiful woman that his group had chased all the way to...
Well... or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that it was the handsome man and beautiful woman who intercepted their pursuers on the official road and toyed with them for half a day!
Looking further behind this handsome man and beautiful woman... there was another handsome man and beautiful woman behind them...
Where did this handsome man and beautiful woman take me?
Could it be... that this handsome man and beautiful woman are immortals?
Could it be... that instead of sending them to the deepest hell, they brought them to a celestial abode?
After only a brief moment of blank stare after opening his eyes, the head constable had already conjured up all sorts of wild ideas in his mind!
He not only thought of it, but also asked it subconsciously...
"You...you...where...where is this place?"
Could it be... could it be that this is a fairyland?
"You guessed right, this is paradise!"
People like you have done so many evil deeds and committed so many sins that you deserve to go to the eighteenth level of hell!
Being able to experience a paradise before going to hell is a blessing in disguise!
Listen carefully. From now on, whether you answer our questions honestly or not is entirely up to you.
If you tell the truth, you might still have a chance to be revived.
If you tell a lie, the consequences—climbing mountains of knives, plunging into boiling oil, or descending into the eighteen levels of hell—are all within your grasp!
After Leng Rongyue finished speaking, she casually waved her hand, and four chairs appeared out of thin air on the grass by the stream.
Leng Rongyue, Xiao Jingyu, Xiao Jingye, and Fang Haoqing all sat down in their chairs with composed expressions.
The head constable on the other side was once again taken aback!
He was startled by the four chairs that appeared out of nowhere!
