Chapter 174 forced confession
Private prisons are prevalent, and no matter the aristocratic families, there are often private prisons that specifically punish slaves or children in poor families. Most of these private prisons are built underground and many of them will be sealed, lacking oxygen, at least not breathing smoothly, and a lot of sewage and poor environments, which are not even as good as county prisons. They are completely tormenting places.
Many slaves who learn that they are going to be arrested and are either struggling to defect or commit suicide early... It is obvious that private prisons are not a place for people to stay.
This is an unknown private prison, dark and narrow, and there are rotten things that cannot be distinguished from the original appearance, emitting a wave of stench, and most of them are thick dust. It should have been a long time since Ding Lunian opened his eyes after fainting.
In front of me are a few tall slaves and the main master in the middle.
The biting cold and wetness on his body made him realize that he had been awakened by someone who had been poured with cold water. However, his body was sour and tied to a pillar and could not move at all.
"Ding... Lu Nian?" The master standing in front of him sneered, "I shouldn't be wrong, right?"
Ding Lunian raised his head slightly, his eyes were dull, and he quietly looked at the person in front of him, without saying anything or expressing any statement.
"It seems that I did not recognize the wrong person. So you are the so-called evolutionary Taoist... In this case, Wang Shuping, you should know him. He asked you to monitor me?"
Being tied up and being covered with so many gazes, Ding Lunian felt a palpitation. This was the first time since he practiced Taoism, and even more fearful than before when he had no money to eat for two days... He smelled the murderous aura.
Thinking of this, he shook his head slightly and opened his mouth: "No... I'm just a wandering cultivator."
"Disable cultivators? There is no problem with free cultivators. I just want to ask you who asked you to monitor here?"
"No one, I wander here, I practice here, and I have not monitored you." Ding Lunian said, "I have devoted myself to practicing Taoism and have to find a spiritual place. It is sparsely populated and the scenery is good, which is very suitable for me, so I chose to stay and practice Taoism every day... If you pay attention to me, you should be able to find out that I rarely go out."
"It doesn't mean I don't go out? Oh...or I've expressed the wrong meaning. The person who entrusts you should be monitored as long as my person is still here-Don't think I'm a fool." The man laughed while saying, suddenly, took a few steps back and said to the servant next to him, "I don't believe it. He can hold on without saying anything."
Ding Lunian immediately waited for his big eyes and looked at the big men in horror.
The big man sneered, holding a horse whip in his hand, and slowly approached.
"My million...you have to hold on!"
...
When he got home, it was getting late. Wang Ningzhi hurriedly got out of the car and said to Fengshou, who was driving: "Go to find Chen Quan and ask him to take some good men to check it out there just now, and see that the Taoist was tied up by Zhang Lu... I think it would not be dangerous to have a name too early, but he still needs to ensure his safety."
Fengshou left, and Wang Ningzhi then breathed a sigh of relief and frowned, because he heard that someone had contacted the Taoist named Ding Lunian yesterday, and that person was tied up today. It was really strange... The little girl was about to get married the day after tomorrow, so she couldn't make any mistakes at this time.
In front of the door, he saw some unusual people, a little strange, but he didn't care. Walking to his parents' yard alone has become a habit. After returning home, he went to his parents' place to meet him first. Of course, today is a bit special. My sister-in-law came home, and I think it was impossible to go back to the big room directly, it should be with her parents.
But the closer he got, the more strange he became. He even saw the maid and servant of his younger brothers and sisters, and stopped to ask, but he was surprised - Yuyao came over!
Although he invited Yuyao to come here, it was only the day of the wedding. He could take Yuyao with him. But now he came here suddenly and was not in his plan. He was inevitably embarrassed for people like him who like to control the plan. However, when people are here, they naturally have to bite the bullet and go in.
There were a lot of people in the courtyard. Originally, the pick-up room should be the living room, but Yuyao was a little special after all. I thought I went directly to Wang Mengjiang after coming. When Wang Mengjiang heard that his sister-in-law He had returned, he naturally took Yuyao with him. Of course, it was not just Yuyao, but even Xi Daomao, Xie Daoyun, Wang Huanzhi, Wang Suzhi, and others who were studying abroad were all here.
It is quite lively, more people than when I ate hot pot last time.
As soon as Wang Ningzhi pushed open the door and went in, Xi Xuan's happy cry came from inside: "Erlang, you are back."
A group of people turned their heads and looked at him.
Yuyao smiled sweetly and had a hint of attachment. After whispering to Wang Mengjiang next to him, he lowered his head shyly. He gently asked the maid to add a seat to Wang Ningzhi, next to him was Xi Daomao who was nestled against her. Wang Xizhi and the others were also very happy, and there was rarely time for the whole family to gather together. Whether it was the elderly Wang Xizhi or the younger brothers and sisters who were young, they all liked this lively atmosphere. On the contrary, after Xie Daoyuan looked at Wang Ningzhi, the faint smile on his face was hesitant, but he still smiled silently without saying anything.
Wang Ningyi responded, then sat next to Xie Daoyun, but did not participate much, exchanged some greetings, and listened to He and his parents like others.
"Do you have any worries about your husband?" Xie Daoyun whispered in his ear while tidying up Wang Ningzhi's clothes.
Wang Ningzhi narrowed his eyes, looked at his wife, pursed his lips and nodded, and whispered: "Please ask the Taoist who monitored the remaining Zhou family to suddenly disappear. It is very likely that he was kidnapped after being discovered."
"Kidnap?" Xie Daoyun was stunned, but she quickly realized that Wang Ningzhi had mentioned this kind of thing to her, so she replied tentatively, "Is it Zhang Lu? Or do you not know who it is?"
"It's probably Zhang Lu, but I turned over halfway and found out that in order to avoid being suspicious and surrounded, I hurried back." As I said, I was careful not to let people around me hear it, so as not to worry.
Xie Daoyun reached out and patted Wang Ningzhi's back of his hand, saying, "My husband should arrange it as soon as possible. My younger sister is about to get married, so don't have an accident at this time."
"Then I'll go there now?" Wang Ningzhi said.
Xie Daoyuan nodded: "I'm here, let alone it's time to eat. The husband can refuse to go to the kitchen to arrange hot pot. I think everyone is here. If you eat hot pot, your father and mother will not refuse."
