Chapter 385 I'm so perverted
At the same time, Xiao Jingfan discovered that the butterfly hairpin in Chu Liuzheng's hair was missing a piece of its wing.
He thought it was broken, but when he looked closely, he saw that it was not a missing piece, but a black beetle crawling on it.
"Don't move." He raised his hand to hold Chu Liuzheng's shoulder, and stretched his other hand towards her head, "The shadow-chasing bug is on your hairpin."
Chu Liuzheng:!!!
"Wait!" She raised her hand and grabbed Xiao Jingfan's wrist, "It's poisonous."
[Doctor Feng hasn't arrived yet. What if he gets poisoned and his hand is broken?]
It’s very tragic to think about it.
Xiao Jingfan: "..."
Is it that serious?
"Let me do it." Tongniang came over and easily took the shadow-chasing bug off the butterfly hairpin and put it into a small box the size of a palm.
Judging from the style, it looks a bit like a box for cosmetics.
Seeing Chu Liuzheng staring at it, she smiled and handed it to Chu Liuzheng: "Take it and play with it."
I don’t really want to play.
Although he thought so, Chu Liuzheng still reached out and took it.
She felt that Feng Jing must want it very much.
Feng Jing really wanted it, but unfortunately, he couldn't find it after searching for a long time. Si Yue couldn't delay, so he had to give up for the time being and trot off to catch up with the others.
"Shadow-chasing bug." Chu Liuzheng saw him catching up and handed him the box containing the shadow-chasing bug.
Feng Jing was delighted: "No wonder I couldn't find it. It turns out it's with you."
He opened the box and found the little shadow-chasing bug lying there motionless, not knowing whether it was scared silly or asleep.
Xiao Jingfan glanced sideways and asked, "How do shadow-chasing bugs find people?"
"Blood." After confirming that the Shadow Chaser was still alive, Feng Jing closed the box and put it into the cloth bag around his waist. "Anyone bitten by the Shadow Chaser will be remembered by it."
"Before releasing a shadow-chaser to search for someone, first feed it a full meal, then let it come into contact with the blood of the person it's looking for. This way, it will be able to find the person no matter how far away they are, whether they are dead or alive."
This is also the value of the shadow-chasing bug.
Hearing this, Xiao Jingfan glanced at the plaster on Chu Liuzheng's neck, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.
Chu Liuzheng asked curiously, "What do shadow-chasing bugs eat?"
"Insects naturally eat insects," Feng Jing said, "and they also eat venom and flower dew."
"If you want it to be more toxic and sting harder, feed it venom once a day. If not, replace it with flower dew collected at night, which will make its carapace beautiful."
Chu Liuzheng couldn't imagine how the black carapace could become beautiful and shiny.
"The carapace of a shadow-chaser isn't naturally black." Feng Jing pointed at Xiao Jingfan's outer robe, "but a royal blue like this."
Chu Liuzheng glanced at Xiao Jingfan's clothes and thought that this color would look pretty good.
Feng Jing said, "The stronger the toxicity of the shadow-chasing insect, the darker the carapace color, with black being the darkest. If you feed it floral dew for a month, the color will slowly fade until it returns to royal blue."
Chu Liuzheng thought about it for a moment, then decisively reached out to Feng Jing: "Give it back to me, I regret it."
Feng Jing: “…”
He held the cloth bag tightly.
Chu Liuzheng reached out his hand persistently.
The two were in a stalemate.
In the end, Doctor Feng saved the little shadow chaser by doing a favor.
Chu Liuzheng, who got a favor from the genius doctor for free, put his hands on his hips and said: I'm so happy!
Everyone returned to the military camp, and Feng Jing ran to check on Siyue's condition.
Chu Liuzheng was also worried about Siyue, but she was of little use except standing there, and she also took up space. It would be better for her to stay and do something useful, such as recommending herself to the emperor to interrogate Zheng Qianqian.
As long as you can find something useful, it can be considered a credit.
Generally speaking, Xiao Jingfan is quite happy to see Chu Liuzheng take the initiative to leak information.
So, the task of interrogating Zheng Qianqian fell on Chu Liuzheng.
Chu Liuzheng made a request: "Your Majesty, could the secret guard lend me a pair of silk gloves?"
If she wants to search Zheng Qianqian or something, it would be easier with the silk gloves.
Xiao Jingfan naturally agreed.
*
In the tent where many torture instruments were placed, Zheng Qianqian, whose face was not as green as before, slowly woke up.
"Wake up." Chu Liuzheng had his face covered, leaving only his eyes exposed, and waved at him friendly.
The silk gloves she borrowed temporarily were a little big for her. As her fingers bent, they moved up an inch, revealing a piece of snow-white skin.
Zheng Qianqian looked around: "Is this a military camp?"
"Yes." Chu Liuzheng picked up an iron whip covered with barbs from the long table. The barbs were stained with dried blood, and it looked very painful.
【Wow, it's quite heavy.】
Chu Liuzheng almost lost his grip, and tried to shake it with his back to Zheng Qianqian, but found that he couldn't shake it at all.
She stared at the iron whip. Who was it for when it was so heavy?
When she was testing the torture instruments, Zheng Qianqian tried to break the chains on his body, but found that his dantian seemed to be sealed and he could not use any internal energy.
Even the feeding insect that was connected to his life did not move at all, as if it was dormant.
"Don't waste your energy. You are just a piece of fish on the chopping board now." Chu Liuzheng heard the noise, put the iron whip back on the table, and turned to look at him.
Zheng Qianqian stared at her warily with a frown: "Who are you?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Chu Liuzheng raised his hand and ran it from his shoulder to his leg. "Of course it's the person who's interrogating you."
Zheng Qianqian: "..."
Zheng Qianqian: "..."
He frowned and looked at the strangely dressed woman in front of him. She looked calm and inquiring. She no longer had the arrogant look she had in the forest. She actually looked a bit smart.
[Tsk, it seems Yin Lanci's disciples are no pushovers.]
Chu Liuzheng felt that he still had to identify the pain points and start addressing them.
She picked and chose among a variety of torture instruments and finally chose a light and handy one - a branding iron.
The iron in the charcoal basin was burning red and looked very hot.
Chu Liuzheng took the soldering iron out of the charcoal basin and looked at it carefully with his eyes lowered.
[It's actually heart-shaped. Are they trying to give the prisoners a little heart? Ugh~ bad taste!]
She walked slowly towards Zheng Qianqian with the soldering iron, being careful not to burn herself the whole time.
[The fire was so red, if you got hit, your skin would melt. The person who invented this punishment is simply inhumane.]
"What do you want to do?" Zheng Qianqian stepped back calmly.
"What I want to do depends on whether you cooperate or not." Chu Liuzheng held the branding iron in front of him, as if wondering where to start.
Feeling the burning heat of the iron, Zheng Qianqian couldn't help but clench his teeth and his whole body tensed up at the thought that it would burn him.
"Don't be nervous." Chu Liuzheng smiled with his eyes curved. His originally harmless eyes, against the backdrop of the red iron, inexplicably became a bit sinister and strange.
"I just want to ask you a few questions. If you answer honestly, I won't poke you with this piece of iron."
Zheng Qianqian: "What's the problem?"
"You are Yin Lanci's apprentice, so you should know where Yin Lanci is now, right?"
Zheng Qianqian answered immediately: "In Longkou Town."
"You're lying." Chu Liuzheng raised the iron and gestured next to his face, laughing through his throat. "Haha, you have such a handsome face, it would be a shame not to make a heart on it."
【Hey~ I'm such a pervert! 】
