A tall and powerful government official with a fierce face walked up to the man, stared at him, and chanted in a loud voice the torture of pinching his fingers, nailing his fingers, cutting his flesh, roasting him, etc.

Although most of these torture methods have not been used since the last two county magistrates, and the torture instruments are all rusty, they are still very bluffing.

At least the man was frightened, and then he rolled his eyes and fainted.

Magistrate Yang:......

He looked at the yamen servant. The tall yamen servant touched his head and smiled naively, "Sir, I didn't expect him to be so unafraid. How about I shake him awake?"

Magistrate Yang looked at the man for a long time and waved his hand to him to shake him awake.

Who knew that the mangy man would faint again when he woke up and saw Magistrate Yang?

Magistrate Yang said: "If you dare to faint, this county will directly punish you."

The maniac was forced to wake up, but his shaky appearance was no different from fainting.

Magistrate Yang was particularly satisfied with being able to scare him like this. He nodded and asked: "Zhou Yin is Zhou Jin's younger brother. You don't even have a hundred households in Qili Village. You can see it when you stand on the slope at the end of the village."

The situation in the village head's courtyard, and your home is not far from Zhou Jin's house, whether or not he will come back, and when he will come back, I can't hide it from you, right?"

The mangy man burst into tears and said tremblingly: "Sir, I, I have never seen Zhou Yin. He, he has been gone for so many years. I have even forgotten what he looks like."

"Then how many years has it been since he left?"

"Ten, it's been more than ten years. I left when I was fourteen and never came back."

"How do you know you are fourteen?"

"Me, I'm only two years older than him. There was a severe drought in central Sichuan that year, and our village was also in drought. Many people starved to death, so I remember it."

"Why did he leave?"

"They are looking for a way to survive. They have a lot of family members. If they stay, someone will definitely die. If I leave, I might be able to survive, and my family will have another way to survive."

"So they have a good relationship as brothers?"

The maniac was not sure if this question was a trap, so he said with wandering eyes: "Okay, it's okay."

Magistrate Yang said expressionlessly: "But this county heard that Zhou Yin came back after leaving, and someone saw him."

The mangy man's face was pale, and he trembled his lips and said: "I, I don't know, I don't know anything..."

Magistrate Yang stared at him for a while, sighed, stood up, turned his back, waved his hand and said, "Let's torture him."

The officials dragged the man who was crying like a ghost and howling like a wolf out to beat him.

"Sir, how many strokes are there?"

Magistrate Yang: "Let's try Shibanzi first."

After ten strokes, the mangy man was dragged back again. He cried: "It's unfair, it's unfair, sir, I really don't know anything."

Magistrate Yang said: "Try pinching your fingers."

Looking at Magistrate Yang's face, the government officials did not dare to make a fatal move and tightened the splint.

The mangy man screamed, rolled his eyes, and fainted again.

Magistrate Yang frowned and looked at him. The yamen officer went to pat him and found no movement, so he looked at Magistrate Yang cautiously.

Magistrate Yang frowned slightly, "Are you trying your best?"

"No, it just hurts, but no bones are broken." Of course, injured tendons are inevitable.

However, they thought that Magistrate Yang rarely used torture and was a gentle man, so they used a clever method to hurt people but not break the bones.

When County Magistrate Yang saw that he couldn't wake the person up, he waved his hand and said: "Put the person in jail first, and we will ask questions tomorrow. By the way, let him have a look. Don't scare the person to death."

"yes."

As a co-worker in the county government, in order to save money, he occasionally worked part-time as a veterinarian, treating horses and prisoners in the government office.

Wu Zuo pricked his acupuncture point and woke him up. But he was lucky. Magistrate Yang was tired and didn't want to interrogate him for the time being.

But the maniac didn't feel good at all. He spent the night in jail frightened and shed tears for half the night. With his brain, he really couldn't think of anything to do with Zhou Yin's matter.

Even if Zhou Yin's incident happened, then people from the old Zhou family should be arrested and interrogated, right?

Why arrest him?

The next day, the man was dragged to the lobby with red and swollen eyes. He still gritted his teeth to show that he didn't know anything.

Magistrate Yang looked at him deeply for a while and did not torture him again. Instead, he waved his hand and said, "Let him go."

The man was stunned and looked up at Magistrate Yang suspiciously.

Magistrate Yang asked him, "Will you tell Zhou Jin's family about this when you go back?"

The mangy man shuddered and shook his head repeatedly.

Magistrate Yang smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "Then you can go back."

The man who was kneeling on the ground tentatively got up on his knees. When he saw Magistrate Yang looking at him intently, his knees softened and he knelt back.

Magistrate Yang smiled at him and said, "Let's go."

The man lay on the ground and took two steps back. Seeing that the government officials in the lobby didn't stop him, he stumbled up and ran out.

After running out of the county government office, he glanced back and saw that no one was coming to catch him, so he immediately ran away with the wind at his feet.

Magistrate Yang watched him run away, and the tall yamen officer was puzzled, "Sir, he is just a weakling. He will be jailed for another two days and given a few beatings. Why did you let him go?"

"You also said that he has soft bones, but after being frightened and frightened for a whole night, didn't he have no way to move?" Magistrate Yang said: "Human bones are very strange. If you knock him down, he can't move at all."

He did it, but if he didn't, the bones he was lying on became tougher. If he wanted to ask again, he would have to kick the bones with all his strength, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get anything even though he was not heavy or light."

And can he go to any lengths?

Of course that's not possible.

The maniac has done nothing wrong, he is just lazy and very mean to his family. He can beat the other person, but if he really breaks his arms, legs and waist...

Magistrate Yang is not a cool official, so where is his bottom line?

So he had no choice but to let the person go and think of other ways.

"Then if he tells Zhou Jin that you are investigating Zhou Yin..."

Magistrate Yang smiled slightly and said: "I hope he said it. This matter is just my guess after all. There is no evidence at all. If someone moved in their house, I might be able to find out."

However, County Magistrate Yang's hope was obviously in vain. The mangy man ran home and fell asleep with his head covered, not daring to say a word. When his father asked him where he was last night, he was so angry that he kicked over the table at home.

.

He didn't even dare to speak to his own parents, let alone people outside.

When he met someone from Lao Zhou's family when he went out, he hid from a distance.

This made Lao Zhoutou narrow his eyes, and he told Qian when he got home, guessing: "Do you think the man has stolen something from our house?"

Qian thought about it carefully and said, "Nothing was lost at home."

"Where's the field?" Lao Zhoutou thought of something, sat up from the bed and said, "That kid won't secretly harm the Ligustrum lucidum on our mountain, right? Otherwise, why would you hide from me whenever you see him?"
