On a high platform at the side of the refugee camp, a few tents that clearly looked more gorgeous and spacious were especially eye-catching. Pei Qian was leaning against a large round chair and slowly fiddling with a bowl of clear chicken soup.
He didn’t look up. He pretended not to see the miserable state of the man tied to the pillar less than ten steps away from him.
This northern barbarian was the accomplice of the three people who were killed by Gu Erlang.
He had been brought back to be interrogated.
“I didn’t expect you to be so tight-lipped!” Pei Qian took two sips of chicken soup before looking up slightly in satisfaction. He looked at the man, who barely had any flesh left on his arm but still remained silent, and couldn’t help but smile.
“Qian He, your craftsmanship seems to have deteriorated! Look, the size of this piece is different!” Pei Qian put down the soup bowl. Then, he stood up and looked at the pile of flesh on the silver plate with a disdainful expression. He first expressed his disdain before turning his attention to the unconscious man tied to the rack.
“Wake him up!”
Qian He bowed and splashed a ladle of water mixed with ice on the man’s face. The man groaned and slowly opened his eyes.
“I know you understand what I’m saying. If you know what’s good for you, tell me everything you know! I can spare your life. At least you will still have a chance to survive and scram!
“But if you continue to be so stubborn, how long do you think you can remain stubborn in my hands?!”
Pei Qian took the thin dagger from Qian He and raised the man’s chin. “Do you know that I can slice you into bones, while you’re still alive?!
If you don’t believe me, we can try.”
“I-I’m just a merchant. I-I don’t know what you’re talking about!” The man took a deep breath and suppressed the fear in his heart. He knew that he definitely wouldn’t survive this!
However, he still had children at home. If he betrayed the tribe here, his wife and children…
“Then you’re quite a tough merchant!” Pei Qian smiled and raised his dagger to cut the man’s exposed wrist. The man endured the pain and trembled as he said, “It’s okay, let’s take it slow!
It’s getting late. I’m sure you’re hungry! There’s nothing to entertain you with on such a cold day. Why don’t I treat you to a pot?!” As Pei Qian called out, a follower behind Qian He quickly brought over a small soup pot made of red mud. The soup that looked like it had been seasoned already was boiling.
“No, no, you’re crazy! You’re a demon! Good lord, you… mmmm…” After realizing Pei Qian’s plan, the man was scared out of his wits. He struggled and cursed.
Pei Qian pinched his handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose with a look of disdain.
“Qian He, I’ll leave this to you! Ask him what we need to know and treat the wound on his arm.”
After saying this, Pei Qian turned around and returned to the tent without looking back.
In the end, the man couldn’t withstand such a terrifying treatment. After vomiting, he had a complete mental breakdown.
Qian He arranged for someone to untie him and send him safely to a small tent at the side.
Before nightfall, most of the people in the refugee camp knew what Pei Qian had done today. Everyone already treated Pei Qian like Hades. At this moment, they didn’t even dare to mention his name, afraid that they would die if they did.
“Pei Qian is too vicious!”
Du Yuanruo curled up on the bed and couldn’t help but tremble when he thought of what he had just seen from the crack in the tent. This was too scary. That guy wasn’t a human at all. He was a lunatic!
“Let’s go back! There’s no need to lose our lives just for this! Pei Qian is a lunatic. What’s there to talk about with that sort of person?!”
“What do you know?! If we return now, have you thought about what the Du family’s situation will be like?!
That’s right, Her Highness is our aunt, but the Du family is not the only one who has helped the Third Prince! There’s also the Empress Dowager. Ever since that woman from the Lu family married the Third Prince, the Du family no longer had a place in the Third Prince’s heart!
Besides, it’s not like you haven’t heard of the Lu family’s way of doing things!
Two tigers cannot share one mountain. I believe you can tell the Empress Dowager’s personality! In the harem, she will not allow anyone to compete with her!
In the previous dynasty, the Lu family was the same!
Our family has already been forced into a corner. If this mission fails, I’m afraid our family will really be abandoned by the Third Prince!”
Du Yuanyi raised his hand and pinched his glabella.
His stupid brother couldn’t tell, but he knew why Pei Qian was doing this today!
Interrogating him to extract information was one of the motives, but it was also to make an example of him! With such a bloody reality, it could be said that all his previous efforts had been wiped out by today’s gory torture!
After today, who would have the guts to go against Pei Qian?!
“But even so, we don’t have any other way to change this situation!” Du Yuanruo muttered. He was a good-for-nothing, but he wasn’t a complete idiot.
Although he didn’t understand all of the rumors in the capital, he could still tell the obvious.
However, a wise man adapted to circumstances. It was obvious that they couldn’t defeat Pei Qian now!
In that case, what was the point of them staying here?! Wouldn’t they be courting death?!
“Who said there isn’t?! Yuan Ruo, there’s no absolutes! Just watch. This game has just begun. We still don’t know who will be the final winner!” Du Yuanyi finished the tea in his cup and snorted.
