In this weird world, I use my body to control all things

"If you don't want to suffer, just tell me what you have done!"

Chen Mo looked at the torture instruments one after another in his hands. He had only seen others interrogate them before, but this was the first time he had used them himself.

Liu Mingqiao looked quite upright, and even looked somewhat decent. He was sitting leaning against the wall, not daring to move around.

Hearing Chen Mo's words, he kept thinking about what he had done in his mind. It seemed that he had never seen the person in front of him.

He is the head of the Salt Transportation Department. Logically speaking, Chen Mo should visit him once after taking office.

But he didn't even visit Chen Mo's adoptive father. Of course, Chen Mo wouldn't visit him warmly but coldly, so the two of them had never met before.

Before taking action yesterday, in order to prevent him from killing the wrong person, Chen Mo carefully observed for a long time and confirmed that he was Liu Mingqiao before taking action.

"This strong man, I don't know how I offended you. What do you want? As long as you let me go, I can give you money, money, good land and a house."

Liu Mingqiao endured the pain and negotiated with Chen Mo without changing his expression, hoping to trick the man into letting him go.

"If you don't tell me, it will be difficult!" Chen Mo smiled and picked out a torture instrument.

In fact, he didn't want to use torture casually, not because he couldn't do it, but mainly because the flesh and blood would make him a little off-putting.

"Sir, whatever you want to ask, just ask me and tell me!" Looking at the torture instrument in Chen Mo's hand, Liu Mingqiao broke through his defense instantly and spoke hurriedly.

He is an official not because of how good or capable he is, but mainly because of his good nature.

When Chen Mo didn't intend to take action, he could still pretend to be powerful. When he saw that Chen Mo was really going to use torture, he didn't even dare to think about how painful those torture instruments would be on his body.

First, peel off the nails bit by bit, and then use an iron plate to grind all the flesh and bones on the fingers bit by bit.

This level of pain was simply not something he could bear.

"Then tell me everything you did and shouldn't have done." Chen Mo put away the torture tools and raised his chin.

Liu Mingqiao gave a very thorough explanation. He was corrupt, perverted the law, and harmed people's lives. He did not dare to hide any evil deeds he did.

Of course, in his words, he tried his best to justify himself by confusing right and wrong, saying that it was not him who wanted to do it, but the unscrupulous people who forced him to do it.

The more he spoke, the more confused Chen Mo became.

The crime he committed was indeed enough to be beheaded several times, but it didn't really involve the point of why his adoptive father suddenly allowed him to control him.

Is it because he has other things he has not confessed, or is it because something happened not to him at all, but to Zhou Cheng, so he must be taken down.

"Zhou Cheng is your backer, so has he ever asked you to do anything?" Chen Mo smiled slightly and asked in a serious voice.

Liu Mingqiao looked hesitant, and then shook his head. He knew that Zhou Cheng was his biggest supporter, and if he fell, he would definitely not survive.

Although I don't know why Chen Mo suddenly asked about this, I can guess that he wanted to use himself to bring down Zhou Cheng.

Therefore, no matter how hard the other party pressed him, he would not be able to say anything.

Unfortunately, under severe torture, he failed to hold on and revealed everything.

In addition to the fact that part of the bribes he collected had to be given to Zhou Cheng, more importantly, Zhou Cheng asked him to smuggle goods between Anyang Prefecture and Xingyuan Prefecture in the name of transporting official salt.

But he had no idea what exactly was being smuggled and who it was for.

"Next, you have to starve for two days. You won't die of hunger anyway." Chen Mo picked up a towel and blocked Liu Mingqiao's mouth.

It seemed that his guess was correct. It was probably Zhou Cheng who had a problem.

As for the specific problem, he will know it when his adoptive father arrives.

Three days later, Sun Shouren rushed to the Zhuniuji military camp after a long journey.

…………

"Father!" Chen Moju bowed down and saluted.

Sun Shouren got off his horse, walked into the barracks that Chen Mo had packed up in advance, and took a seat at the main seat.

And the soldiers he brought temporarily took over the entire military camp.

"Is Liu Mingqiao dead? Have you controlled him?" Sun Shouren asked the question he was most concerned about at the moment.

"Back to my foster father, he is still alive and well, and I am imprisoning him in the barracks next door.

It's just that the kid really doesn't understand why he was suddenly arrested. Is there something wrong with Zhou Cheng? "Chen Mo's face was full of doubts, and now he was most curious about this question.

Sun Shouren smiled when he heard this, glanced at the door and window, and made sure that his own soldiers were guarding the place. He took a sip of tea in a leisurely manner, and then spoke.

"You're right, it's because something happened to Zhou Cheng.

According to the investigation by the imperial patrol, he had connections with Dutiandaomen. He once asked Liu Mingqiao to smuggle goods for Dutiandaomen between Xingyuan Prefecture and Anyang Prefecture in the name of transporting official salt. "

Sun Shouren spoke slowly. He had only learned the news not long ago, so he was anxious to let Chen Mo control Liu Mingqiao first.

Once this incident came out, other things were no longer important. Dutian Daomen was preparing to rebel but Zhou Cheng colluded with them.

The best outcome would be to kill the Nine Tribes, and Liu Mingqiao, who helped Zhou Cheng smuggle commercial goods, would certainly not be able to escape.

Chen Mo looked surprised. He didn't expect Zhou Cheng to be connected with Dutian Dao Sect.

If something happens to the Zhou Cheng, the magistrate of the state, and many bureaucrats in each government, I am afraid that if something happens to him, the entire Dingzhou officialdom will undergo a major blood change.

"Then the imperial court is going to officially take action against the Dutian Dao Sect?" Chen Mo asked in a low voice.

Now that the imperial court has started arresting people, there is no doubt that the encirclement and suppression of Dutian Dao Sect will officially begin, probably in the near future.

Sun Shouren nodded slightly, "According to my estimation, within the next three or two months, the imperial court will mobilize troops to encircle and suppress Du Tiandao Sect. Now, one is investigating and trying to uproot it, and the other is deploying troops."

It is not easy to mobilize a large army, not to mention the encirclement and suppression of the Tiandaomen, which must be strangled cleanly without leaving any harm.

It all takes time to prepare slowly. Now Dingzhou seems to be stable on the surface, but in fact there are turbulent undercurrents.

"You should be prepared when the time comes and try to make more contributions. If I help you with the operation, you can still move up." Sun Shouren said with a smile.

It is said that some people in the court are good at becoming officials, and others may not be promoted if they perform meritorious service. But as long as Chen Mo performs meritorious service, he will definitely be promoted as long as he is there.

"My child understands." Chen Mo said.

Sun Shouren came in a hurry and left in a hurry. He just had a light meal at Chen Mo's house and left in a hurry with Liu Mingqiao.

How to investigate next is not Chen Mo's concern.

While watching his adoptive father leave, Chen Mo saw that the Qi and blood of the Mortal Transformation Pearl in his dantian had accumulated nearly 70%. Now he only hoped that he could take action later.

Give yourself another two or three months to accumulate enough energy and blood for the next transformation.

The stronger he is, the more confident he will be when encircling Du Tiandao Sect.

After all, those practitioners from Dutian Dao Sect have really weird methods.

After sending his adoptive father away and returning home, Chen Mo heard many people discussing Liu Mingqiao's disappearance.

This matter has now fermented, spreading like a gust of wind hundreds of miles around, everyone is talking about it, and there are various opinions.

At least so far, most people thought that he had disappeared, or that he had offended some enemies and was killed in a vendetta.

Everyone applauded this and worried that he would not die.

He even secretly praised the righteous man who took action, thinking that he was a rare hero.

Some storytellers have even begun to boldly talk about this matter, compiling various stories about punishing rape and eliminating evil for the righteous knight.

After that, Chen Mo's life became stable again, and he continued to practice and train every day, until one month later, Mo Hu sent someone to send a letter.
