Chapter 1050: The Self-Torture Scheme

Soon, Zhou Daogong was escorted to the prison again.

Not only Zhou Daogong's personal soldiers were imprisoned here, but also Yun Ting's guards.

"Tie them up!"

At Shen Kuan's command, two guards immediately stepped forward and tied Zhou Daogong to a pillar in the camp.

Shen Kuan picked up the whip and soaked it in the salt water next to him.

"Mr. Zhou, if you don't tell the truth, I'm going to torture you!"

Shen Kuan shook the whip with a "snap" sound, and the salt water on the whip splashed everywhere.

Zhou Daogong shook his head helplessly, looking at the whip in Shen Kuan's hand with some fear, "It really wasn't me! Someone must be trying to sow discord between the prince and the court..."

"You still dare to be tough?"

Shen Kuan snorted coldly, "It seems that you won't cry until you see the coffin!"

As he spoke, Shen Kuan lashed Zhou Daogong fiercely with the whip in his hand.

Snapped!

After one whip, Zhou Daogong howled in pain.

"Your Majesty, I didn't do it. I really didn't do it..."

Zhou Daogong wailed loudly.

"I wonder how long you can keep your mouth shut!"

A cold light flashed in Shen Kuan's eyes, and he whipped him hard again.

Then, the second whip.

The third whip...

Shen Kuan whipped Zhou Daogong with the whip again and again, and soon, Zhou Daogong's body was covered with blood.

As Zhou Daogong was soaked in salt water, the pain in his body intensified and he kept emitting heart-wrenching screams.

However, no matter how Shen Kuan tortured him, Zhou Daogong insisted that the incident had nothing to do with him.

Shen Kuan whipped Zhou Daogong twenty or thirty times in a row. Unable to bear the pain, Zhou Daogong fainted.

But Shen Kuan seemed still unwilling to give in and continued to beat Zhou Daogong to vent his anger.

"Commander Shen, he fainted!"

A guard reminded Shen Kuan.

"Splash him awake!"

Shen Kuan ordered coldly.

"Yes!"

The guard took the order and immediately scooped up a bucket of cold water from the side and poured it on Zhou Daogong's face.

Wow…

After being poured with cold water, Zhou Daogong finally woke up.

"Zhou Daogong, are you still going to be stubborn?"

Shen Kuan's eyes flashed coldly, "Your Majesty is magnanimous. As long as you give out all the people involved in this matter, I will ensure your life is safe!"

Zhou Daogong shook his head feebly and said weakly: "I... don't know..."

"very good!"

Shen Kuan showed a devilish smile on his face, "I haven't met someone as stubborn as you in a long time! You should also know that I am the commander of the prince's personal guard. I have fought many battles with the prince and captured many prisoners from enemy countries. I like people who are stubborn the most..."

Zhou Daogong's face was pale, his mouth was slightly open, and he talked for a long time but no words came out.

"Take him down first!"

Shen Kuan waved at the guards beside him, and pointed at one of Yun Ting's guards, "Bring him here!"

"Yes!"

Soon, Zhou Daogong was untied from the pillar, and two guards dragged one of Yun Ting's guards to the pillar to be listed.

"I don't know anything. This matter has nothing to do with me..."

Seeing that Shen Kuan was about to torture him, Yun Ting's guards suddenly shouted.

He really doesn't know anything!

Until now, he still didn't know what Shen Kuan and the others were asking.

He doesn't even know how to edit it!

Shen Kuan snorted coldly, and then looked up at the others, "Don't be impatient, come one by one! I want to see who is harder, you or my whip!"

As he spoke, Shen Kuan dipped the blood-stained whip in his hand into salt water again.

After the guard was tied up, Shen Kuan didn't ask any questions and just whipped him a few times.

Compared to the beating he gave Zhou Daogong, Shen Kuan used much more force when he finished class.

After a few whips, the guards screamed and wailed.

……

An hour later, Shen Kuan had interrogated more than a dozen people.

However, nothing was revealed during the interrogation.

It was not until a royal guard came to tell Shen Kuan that Yun Zheng had something to discuss with him that Shen Kuan suspended the interrogation of these people and ordered them to be tied up and taken outside to feed the mosquitoes.

As night fell, the number of mosquitoes in the camp increased.

Everyone had their shirts stripped off and were left to be bitten by mosquitoes.

The horrific wounds on Zhou Daogong and others were also exposed.

The mosquito bites made these people scream, but their hands and feet were tied, so they couldn't scratch at all and could only wail continuously.

Not long after, Yun Ting, who was a little drunk, came to the scene with a pot of wine.

"Tell me the truth, who among you was sent by the Third Master to monitor me?"

As Yun Ting spoke, he took another sip of wine from the jug, his eyes filled with hostility.

He knew that among these guards there must be the third brother's men.

But he couldn't be sure who it was.

He just wanted to catch the third brother's men and have them send his head back!

He wants to let everyone see the consequences of working for the third brother!

Faced with Yun Ting's questioning, a group of guards denied it one after another.

"Do you think I am a fool?"

Yun Ting sneered, and glanced at the guards with resentment on his face, "Okay, you keep talking tough! I heard from my sixth brother that these mosquitoes can kill people! I have lived for so many years, and I have never seen anyone bitten to death by mosquitoes!"

After saying that, Yun Ting was too lazy to waste time talking to these people, and staggered back with the wine jug in his hand.

Although he succeeded in outwitting the third brother this time, it also meant that he had no chance of becoming emperor!

He had already made an agreement with the second and fifth brothers, but he didn't expect that he would be the first one to be eliminated.

All this is thanks to that bastard Old Third!

At this moment, Yun Ting's hatred for Yun Li reached its peak.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Before I knew it, it was already the second half of the night.

Yun Zheng entertained the surrendered generals in the camp today, and many of them were drunk.

Most of the soldiers in the camp were already asleep, with only a few patrollers still patrolling the camp with torches.

While no one was paying attention, Zhou Daogong kept grinding the rope that bound him, and whispered to the others: "Those who don't want to die, grind the rope quickly, and be careful, don't get discovered!"

After hearing Zhou Daogong's words, many people reacted and started to sharpen the ropes.

It took them more than half an hour to finish this.

Finally, someone was the first to break the rope, but when he was about to squat down to untie the rope on his feet, he saw the patrolling soldiers coming over, so he could only pretend to be in pain.

The patrolling soldiers just glanced at them from a distance and then went on to patrol elsewhere.

As the patrolling soldier walked away, the soldier immediately squatted down and untied the ropes on his feet. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he hurried to help others untie the ropes.

After Zhou Daogong was untied, he immediately whispered to everyone: "Everyone listen to my command, sneak into the stable, quickly grab the warhorse and escape..."

Hearing this, everyone nodded.

There are eight thousand cavalrymen in this camp!

If they didn't seize the war horses and escape, they would be caught up even if they escaped.

By then, they really won't have any chance to survive...
