Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 53 Windfall
Several hours later, Cao Ting finally sobered up with a slightly embarrassed look on his face.

Naturally, Wu Liang would not bring up this matter again, but changed the topic tacitly to other places, and said with a smile: "Brother An Min, I just heard you say that the envoy sent us a spy sent by Lu Bu to search for the tomb. It's getting late, let's hurry up and go to the trial?"

In fact, Wu Liang was already full of interest in this spy when he heard Cao Ti say the two key words "Lv Bu" and "tomb search".

Only in order to avoid the suspicion of overstepping, he refrained from going to the interrogation alone when Cao Jin was drunk.

After all, Lu Bu was also a very famous tomb robber in history.

When Dong Zhuo was forced to move his capital to Chang'an, before he left, he ordered Lu Bu to destroy the tombs of emperors, ministers and ministers in Luoyang (now Luoyang), and obtained a lot of gold treasures from them.

It is also for this reason that in a later novel, Lu Bu became a famous descendant of "one of the five great tomb robbers"-"Xieling Lishi".

It was just about the sect of "Xieling Lishi", Wu Liang deliberately searched many historical materials, but did not find any documents that could be verified.

In addition, "Mountain Taoist" and "Guanshan Taibao" also cannot be verified.

The only records are "General Faqiu Zhonglang" and "Lieutenant Mojin", but these two are just official positions set up by Boss Cao, and they belong to the same army's subordinate relationship. As for whether they parted ways later The formation of two different sects is unknown.

But Wu Liang didn't doubt Lu Bu's level of tomb robbery at all. He actually robbed a lot of big tombs, and this alone should not be underestimated.

Maybe through this spy, he can really ask some news that he doesn't know.

"Good to say."

Cao Ting nodded, but his eyes turned to the wine jar in the corner: "But how much of your fine wine...is there?"

"There's only one pot right now, how many pots should I pack for Brother An Min first?"

Wu Liang smiled.

It's really not that he is small, this wine is indeed not easy to come by, after distilling a jar of corn wine, only such a small jar can be produced, and he still wants to have some left over to subdue Dianwei.

The sooner this plan is implemented, the better, so as not to miss such a powerful bodyguard.

"Haha, then I won't be polite to my virtuous brother."

Only then did Cao Ting laugh, filled a few pots for the accompanying soldiers to carry, and contentedly pulled Wu Liang out of the house together, heading straight for the barracks.

……

Inside the barracks cell.

A lean, middle-aged man was tied to a torture rack, looking at Cao Ting and Wu Liang in horror.

At this moment, the linen clothes on his body had been torn several times, blood stains could be seen everywhere, and there were still many unhealed wounds on his body.

These injuries were not caused by Cao Tian and Wu Liang, the man already looked like this when they saw him.

"The villain's name is Yang Wanli, from Bingzhou Pinglu. He was originally a subordinate of Bingzhou Inspector Ding Yuan. Later, he followed Lv Bu to Dong Zhuo. After Dong Zhuo died, he followed Lv Bu to Yuan Shao. Recently, Lv Bu's troops are stationed in Wuyi, Jizhou. "

"Nowadays there is a shortage of food and wages. Lu Bu got the sweetness when he was in Luoyang, so he sent villains out to spy on the surrounding tombs, but he was arrested without finding anything."

"Two generals, what the villain said is true, please raise your hands high..."

After the spy was caught, he had obviously suffered more than a severe beating. Now that he saw Wu Liang and the two of them, he explained the situation very proactively without asking any questions.

"It's all explained, what else is there to ask?"

It should be the first time Cao Ting interrogated a prisoner, or the first time he met such a frank prisoner, he immediately shrugged at Wu Liang and said in a boring way.

"No, there are flaws!"

Wu Liang stared sharply, and said as if "there is only one truth".

"Where is there a flaw, why didn't I hear it?"

Cao Ting frowned slightly, with a puzzled look on his face.

"Um……"

In fact, Wu Liang didn't find any problems, but he always felt that he couldn't come here in vain, he had to cheat this spy again, maybe he could really cheat out some news that he was interested in?
Moreover, he had been paying attention to the spy's expression when he said "flawed" just now, and vaguely saw a trace of panic and anxiety across his face.

Of course, this "vagueness" may also be his psychological effect, and it cannot be used as evidence, not to mention that no matter who is cheated in this way, it is inevitable that there will be some anxiety.

Anyway, let's cheat first, if you really can't cheat, forget it.

Thinking of this, Wu Liang thought for a while, and then said pickily: "If a person wants to hide something, he usually emphasizes some details that are contrary to it in his words. If you haven’t found it, you don’t need to tell us about it, why you have to say it on purpose, this is the biggest flaw.”

"Hey, talented brother, what you said seems to make sense!"

Cao Ting suddenly realized, and said in surprise, "A few years ago, I eavesdropped on Cao Zixiu's (Cao Ang) sex. If he noticed by accident, he would specially emphasize the sound of crickets in the courtyard."

Whoops?

And a windfall?

Wu Liang cast a contemptuous glance at Cao Ti, then looked at the spy with a "fierce look" in his eyes, and scolded loudly, "Say! What exactly did you find?"

"Forgive me, General. The villain really didn't find anything. Even if he had a hundred guts, he wouldn't dare to hide it."

The spy quickly begged for mercy with a bitter face.

"It seems that you are not willing to recruit without resorting to some means. If so, don't blame me for being rude!"

Cao Ting didn't care about these things, after hearing Wu Liang's words, he already believed that this person was hiding something, and immediately picked up the whip next to him to extract a confession.

"Wait a minute!"

But Wu Liang held down his hand, sized up the spy with a "cruel" smile on his face, and even licked his lower lip. He saw that the spy's vest felt cold, so he said deliberately, "Brother An Min , I suddenly came up with a new method, since this person refuses to tell the truth, why not test it on him?"

"What new method?"

Cao Ting asked curiously.

"Isn't the camp plagued by rats recently? Let's catch a rat, put it in the man's stomach with a bucket, and then burn the barrel with fire. The rat can't stand the heat and will run away with its life. However, the barrel The walls are solid, and it has nowhere to go, so it can only make a hole in this person's abdomen, and forcefully drill into his stomach... tsk tsk tsk, how about it, isn't it very interesting?"

Wu Liang's tongue-in-cheek smile gradually changed, and it looked especially terrifying under the dim light of the cell.

"This?"

Cao Ting was stunned immediately, and looked at Wu Liang in astonishment, as if he had known him for the first time.

A drop of cold sweat fell quietly from the temples. This was the first time he had heard of such torture. Let alone trying it, just thinking about it would make the vest feel cold, and the hairs all over the body stand on end. It is simply inhumane...

at the same time.

The spy was already crying loudly: "I said! I said it's not enough? The villain has indeed found a large tomb, and the villain will explain it! I just ask the general to hold your hands high and give the villain a good time!"
