Chapter 623 Fang Canran's Hospitality

There is a toilet in there, so the guests won't get their feet numb from squatting.

There is always a strong incense burning in the secret room, and the bottom is covered with incense ash and bamboo charcoal to remove the odor.

He Lingchuan waved his hand: "No need, I'll go by myself." After saying that, he stood up swayingly.

He seemed to be stepping on cotton, one foot deep and one foot shallow, with an unstable center of gravity, but he finally walked over.

Fang Canran waited outside the secret room for a long time, and suddenly heard a plop, as if a heavy object fell to the ground from the heavy door inside.

He rushed over to see that He Lingchuan had fallen on the way out, prostrating himself.

He squatted down and shook He Lingchuan's shoulders: "Brother He?"

The boy didn't respond.

Fang Canran called twice more, but He Lingchuan still didn't move.

So Fang Canran stopped smiling, took out the rope, muttered a few tricks, and put it on He Lingchuan's hand. The rope automatically tightened and wrapped around twice.

Fang Canran also pulled twice to make sure it was tied tightly.

At this moment, the wooden window was blown open by the strong wind with a clang, and the wind immediately filled the room.

It had been raining outside since someone had known it, and the cold rain was carried in by the wind, hitting people's faces randomly.

Fang Canran was afraid that He Lingchuan would be woken up by the wind and rain, so he rushed in and closed the window.

At this moment, someone knocked on the courtyard door and called out, "General Manager Fang."

Fang Canran responded, "Speak!"

The wind was very strong, and the man had already walked out of the courtyard and leaned over the door and shouted, "General Yang is entertaining guests in Wanxiang Courtyard. Seven or eight people are drunk and are leaving now. But the one hundred taels of silver he took out to pay the bill is fake. When you cut it open, there is a piece of tin in the middle. Do you see?"

Fang Canran immediately said, "Take it and send the guests away as usual. Tomorrow evening, I will bring the fake silver to Yang's house."

"Yes!"

Fang Canran listened to the footsteps of the servant leaving, then walked to the captive, carried him back to the small hall and pressed him on the chair, and took out a half-palm-wide golden toad ornament facing the sky, and threw a little spark into the golden toad's big mouth.

Soon, the golden toad's mouth emitted a wisp of clear smoke, which was actually red, blue and black, and the three colors were steaming separately and not mixed.

Fang Canran held his breath and put the golden toad ornament under He Lingchuan's nose.

The three-color smoke seemed to be guided and went into the captive's nose.

He Lingchuan seemed to be a little uncomfortable and moved a little, and Fang Canran's expression tightened.

Fortunately, the captive soon stopped moving and his breathing became lighter.

If there were other people around, they would be shocked to see this scene. The most trusted general manager of the Golden Horn Family, Boss Fang, who has made his business bigger and stronger, actually took action to plot against someone!

Ordinary people can't think of the reason why he did this, and they will only think that this is the highest level of business war.

Fang Canran estimated the time, and after forty breaths, he moved the golden toad away, extinguished the three-color smoke, and pinched a wind summoning trick to summon a breeze to blow away the remaining smoke in the air to the back hall, so that he dared to breathe freely.

He approached He Lingchuan and whispered, "Mr. He?"

He Lingchuan didn't respond.

He asked again, and He Lingchuan said "hmm" in a daze.

Fang Canran's voice was extremely gentle: "Mr. He, where are you?"

He Lingchuan: "No, I don't know."

"Don't be afraid, you are very safe and comfortable, no one will do anything to you... Do you know who I am?"

"I don't know."

Fang Canran asked again: "What is your full name?"

"He Xiao."

"Where are you from?"

"Fuguo."

Fang Canran used a three-color calming smoke, which can make the user in a state of relaxation, as if they are neither asleep nor awake. As long as they are guided properly, or the questions are answered, the person still doesn't know what happened afterwards.

This kind of smoke is perfect for questioning the suspect, and it is unnoticed.

Even Fan Sheng was defeated by the person in front of him, Fang Canran didn't think he could get any advantage from the force; but most young people are not firm enough and are easily fascinated by sensual pleasures, so he can start from here.

Asking a few routine questions is to dispel the subconscious concerns of the captives. Fang Canran got to the point: "What are you doing in Lingxu City?"

"Bai Ziqi asked me to come, and I had to come."

His story is well known in Lingxu City, and Fang Canran certainly knows what this sentence means.

"What else do you want to do?"

He Lingchuan's tone was very confused: "What?"

"Do you have any other important things to do in Lingxu City?"

"I don't know." He Lingchuan was even more puzzled than him, "Do I have?"

How does Fang Canran know if he has, so he can only change the question: "What is your relationship with Li Qingge, the Lord of Songyang Mansion?"

"Friends."

"How did you know?"

"I met him when I asked Songyang Mansion to forge a sword for me."

Fang Canran frowned: "What did you meet a few days ago to discuss?"

He Lingchuan moved: "The Lord wants to recruit me as a guest elder."

"That's it?" No other plans?

He Lingchuan didn't respond.

Fang Canran asked again: "Do you recognize a seal ring with five spirals on it?"

"Yes."

The following is the key point: "How do you recognize it?"

"I've seen it before."

Fang Canran's heart tightened: "Where have I seen it before?"

"In the hands of Fang Canran, the chief steward of Dunyuan."

"..." Fang Canran was a little helpless, "Have you seen it before?"

"Yes. In the west."

This answer was far beyond Fang Canran's expectations.

There is this problem with using three-color smoke to torture the answer. The person being asked loses his logical ability and is like a puppet, and it is difficult to give a complete answer.

"Where is the west?"

"West of Bega, further west."

"Where's the place name?"

Fang Canran asked several more times before the other party said: "Linhe City."

Fang Canran's face turned dark as soon as these three words were spoken. His chest rose and fell, as if holding back his breath and said: "The current owner of this signet ring, what do you want to do to him?"

"Fang Canran?"

"right."

He Lingchuan tilted his head: "It's hard to say, it depends on what he wants to do to me."

"Last question." Fang Canran's expression was almost unbearable: "Are you talking nonsense?"

"yes."

Then, He Lingchuan opened his eyes.

His eyes were clear, how could he be a little confused?

Fang Canran's dagger was also placed on He Lingchuan's neck.

"Manager Fang, is this how you treat guests?" He Lingchuan shook his tied hands. Fang Canran took a look and found that the rope was still very tight, so he felt relieved.

He Lingchuan could pretend to be unconscious and answer questions, but he was unwilling to suffer the disadvantage of being mute.

Being at a disadvantage in the first encounter will only make Fang Canran look down on him and think he can play with him as he pleases.

It is said that although his story was widely circulated in Lingxu City, others only knew that Cen Boqing sent someone to assassinate him, but they did not know the specific method.

I guess Fang Canran didn't find out, otherwise he would have been more cautious about poisoning and lighting up three-color cigarettes after hearing that even the spell masters had failed to kill He Lingchuan.

Fang Canran let out a long, long sigh: "How great would it be if you were unconscious, confessed honestly, and then woke up without knowing anything?"

If the three-color calming smoke takes effect and He Lingchuan wakes up and doesn't remember what he said or what he experienced, and just thinks that he was in a trance after drinking, wouldn't everyone be happy?

This special envoy from Chiyan had made such a big name in Lingxu City that no one else could touch him, so Fang Canran wanted to use this method to spy quietly. After asking, he snapped his fingers and both parties could happily eat and drink together as if nothing had happened.

He Lingchuan shook his head: "The smell of your cigarette is so strong that I woke up as soon as I smelled it."

Fang Canran was a little depressed. He had not used three-color cigarettes a few times. This thing still varies from person to person, and the dosage is difficult to control.

Now that He Lingchuan has seen through it and the tacit understanding between the two parties has been broken, then——

"The scene is not good now."

"Why don't you untie it for me?" He Lingchuan looked at him and raised his chin, "So many people in Pianxiang Villa saw you and I leaving together, and they are all witnesses. If you untie the rope now, maybe I will forget the blame."

He looked confident, and Fang Canran sat up straight: "It's okay if you're awake, so we don't have to talk nonsense. Where did you know about this threaded ring?"

He Lingchuan couldn't laugh or cry: "You're going to tie someone up because of this trivial matter? Mr. Fang, you've gone too far!"

He struggled twice, but the rope contracted and tightened, causing him to hiss in pain and his face was a little distorted.

Seeing that he was unable to break free, Fang Canran took back the dagger: "This is the Earth Immortal Rope, which can bind the true power."

Otherwise, with He Lingchuan's strength, it wouldn't be a matter of minutes to break free from an ordinary rope? "I'm just looking at the ring. If you don't believe it, forget it."

Fang Canran looked at him as if he was arrogant: "You haven't said anything since I gave you opportunities several times, so don't blame me."

After several contacts, he was tired of testing and didn't want to leave such a hidden trap.

He Lingchuan was stunned: "What do you want to do? What do you dare to do?"

With so many witnesses, Fang Canran dared to kill him?

The chief steward of the Golden Horn family had always behaved gracefully before. Is this extreme appearance now his true face?

Fang Canran poured a glass of wine and pushed it in front of him: "Toast, tell the whole story clearly, I can spare your life."

He Lingchuan saw that he took out another soft leather bag and spread it out. Inside was a variety of metal tools, including scissors, knives, tweezers, clamps, hammers, and some strange shapes that had no idea what they were used for.

But everything was polished.

"As punishment for drinking wine, I have twelve types of punishment here and thirty-six types of punishment here. You have to taste each one before you die."

Is it appropriate for a big businessman to hide so many instruments of torture?

He Lingchuan sneered: "What so many of my opponents dare not do, General Manager Fang Da wants to do it for them?"

"Those opponents have scruples and are focused on their own wealth and future, so you have room to move around." Fang Canran raised the threaded signet ring and waved it in front of him, "You always stare at it, then you should know , the owner of this ring is never afraid of death!"

The last few words are striking.

Since he had offended He Lingchuan and exposed his own anxiety, he was not afraid of offending him again.

Things go wrong, but there is always something gained, right?

He Lingchuan also stopped struggling and looked at the ring seriously.
