The court lackeys of the eight-hour workday

Chapter 145 Ji Tianrui

Li Miao talked a lot, but the woman didn't respond at all.

After fighting with Li Miao for an incense stick of time, even if Li Miao had held back, she was now almost unrecognizable - her left eye was a black hole with blood flowing out of it. Her right arm was broken at the elbow, her left abdomen was a bloody mess, and her legs were covered in blood and scars. Her clothes were torn, revealing her hideous scars.

But she said nothing.

Ever since she revealed her true form, no matter how badly Li Miao injured her, even when her right arm was torn off, she did not make a sound.

This is not normal.

The martial arts fights in Dashuo are particularly brutal, so all the martial artists are used to fighting with injuries and have a stronger tolerance for pain, which is normal.

But, will is will, and instinct is instinct.

No matter how much you can endure, you can only continue to fight with injuries, which does not mean that you will not have any reaction. It is impossible for you to not even groan when your arm is torn off unexpectedly.

Li Miao looked her up and down and frowned.

He beat the woman severely before speaking, hoping that she would be so injured that she would lose control of her emotions, so that he could verify whether what he said was correct.

Now it seems that it is completely useless.

Just when Li Miao was thinking about whether to kill her directly, the woman suddenly spoke.

"Master Li, you don't have to think about getting anything out of me."

"I only have three words to tell you on behalf of the leader."

"After that, you can do whatever you want with my life. Slice me, cut me open, or chop off my head and hang it on the city gate. It's all up to you."

Li Miao raised his eyebrows and sneered.

"You don't have to say it if you don't want to?"

As long as she is not dumb, even if she is a piece of stone, he can force her to speak!
After saying that, he formed one hand into a claw and swung it towards the woman's head!

After the woman finished speaking, she did not dodge or evade, and even dispersed her posture. She stood there leisurely, watching Li Miao's claws on her forehead.

"Ok?"

Li Miao was surprised, but his hands did not stop at all. With a loud rustling sound, he tore off half of the scalp, and then pressed it back, using the miraculous skill of "biological welding" to put the flesh and blood back together.

This technique is good for healing and even better for torture. Even a veteran like Liu Baiyun can't handle it.

The woman was injured in the head, which is the area with the most nerves, and blood flowed from her forehead to her face.

But she really let Li Miao do whatever he wanted.

The woman stood there leisurely, her pupils did not shrink and her fingers did not tremble, as if Li Miao had just gently stroked her head.

She said calmly with a blank expression.

"Master Li, as long as you don't kill me before I tell the leader what he said, you can test me to see if I am bluffing."

"After the fight just now, I am sure that I will never be able to escape from your hands. So, my mission is only to finish those three sentences. After that, my life will be yours."

"I know that you are a veteran Jinyiwei, and you have combined the three paths into one. You are familiar with the meridians, tendons, bones, and true qi of the human body, and you have countless unique skills of your own. You have all the means to torture people. However, you can't torture me."

"No matter what you do to me, I feel nothing."

Li Miao frowned, twirled his fingers, and looked the woman up and down for a long time.

Then, he suddenly realized and let out a long sigh.

"I see. I was wondering why those scars on your body looked so familiar."

"You are a 'pupa girl' who was rescued."

During his visit to the Miao King's tomb, Li Miao had seen this kind of maid kneeling in front of the Miao King's coffin. After being tortured in every way, deprived of her five senses, feeling the poisonous insects in her body devouring her while desperately waiting for the Miao King's resurrection, she was a pathetic creation of ignorant beliefs. And the scars on this woman's clothes after the fight with Li Miao were similar to those of the "pupa girl".

The woman nodded.

"You should have seen something like me in the Miao King's Tomb."

"The poisonous insect crawled along my neck, into my head, and ate part of my brain. Since then, I have never felt any pain again. And because of this, I survived to the end."

"The so-called torture is nothing but the mind and body. I can no longer feel the pain of the body, and the pain of the mind... can it be more painful than the experience I had in the tomb, when I lost all my five senses and could only wait for death in agony? So, you don't have to bother with someone like me."

"Now, can you listen to the three sentences the Master wants to say to you?"

Li Miao also felt a little helpless. All torture methods are based on two premises: the ability to feel pain and the desire to live.

But this woman is clearly a pervert, both mentally and physically, she doesn't want to live, and she can't feel pain, and she doesn't care about her own body at all.

Of course, Li Miao could think of some extraordinary methods that might be useful.

However, those methods were not only time-consuming, but also too extreme. Even Li Miao himself felt disgusted and didn't want to use them at all.

So, he really couldn't do anything with this woman.

Seeing that Li Miao didn't say anything, the woman spoke slowly.

"In that case, I will tell Lord Li."

"First, Lord Li and I are both 'outsiders' and are not tolerated by the 'right way'. Why do we have to kill each other?"

Li Miao sneered.

"I am an outsider, who is the right one?"

"The court."

The woman said without hesitation.

"A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. The reason why the gods have not appeared in the world for a long time lies in Dashuo and the Zhu family. As your martial arts improve day by day, one day, you will stand in the position of Ji Tianrui, the Ming Cult, and the leader, and face the war of the imperial court."

Li Miao sneered again.

"Anything fresh?"

In Li Miao's opinion, these words are all outdated nonsense.

He kept a low profile for the past twenty years, and only started to show off his martial arts skills when he was able to protect himself. Was he just idle?

On Mount Tai, after knowing that the East Factory had already shown signs of emerging, what he said to the Five Mountains Sword Sects, "serve the Embroidered Uniform Guard" instead of "serve the court", was it aimless?
Outside the Shaolin Temple, Zhu Zai had already made it very clear, "Whether you are a traitor or not is not determined by whether you want to, but by whether you can." Whether it is Da Shuo or the previous life, as long as the main body of civilization is still human, the underlying logic of operation will always be "fist" and "butt", which Li Miao had already seen clearly.

At this time, when Ji Tianrui said this to Li Miao again, Li Miao just felt that he might think that he was a reckless person who only knew how to fight.

The woman didn't react at all and continued.

"The second sentence is that the four celestial beings who killed Ji Tianrui all suffered from the Five Degenerations within a year after Ji Tianrui's death, and died one after another. Zhu Zai was spared death because he was a member of the royal family, but he was also pressed to death in the position of the commander of the Jinyiwei, and he could not advance even a little for fifteen years."

"After Jia Jing dies, Zhu Zai will also die."

"Oh?" Li Miao raised his eyebrows and did not comment.

This sentence is indeed useful. If it is really as Ji Tianrui No. 2 said, and if the court knew that I killed him, I might get into trouble like those celestial beings in the past.

However, this matter will have to be verified in the future.

Seeing that Li Miao looked indifferent, the woman didn't care and spoke slowly.

"Third sentence, I am already disheartened and will leave Dashuo soon. If Lord Li is angry with the Ming Cult, you can kill them at will, and I will not have any complaints."

"But if Lord Li still wants to spar with me, I will be happy to wait for you. I just hope that Lord Li will come to the appointment as soon as possible and not delay my trip."

"Respectfully presented, Ji Tianrui."

After saying that, the woman raised her hand and suddenly hit herself on the forehead.

Bang!
There was a dull thud, red and white objects splashed everywhere, and the beautiful face of the woman was gone. A cavity shook a few times in place, and fell to the ground with a bang.

Li Miao had no intention of stopping her. He just stood there quietly, twirling his fingers.

"Interesting. Ji Tianrui should know exactly what I did at Mount Tai and Shaolin."

"Knowing that I have three paths combined into one and can complete two paths at the same time, how dare you let me go find her?"

"Alright, alright."

Li Miao smiled.

Different from the lazy smile of the past, this smile contained a hint of excitement.

"I'm a little tired of beating up kids."
