C341 Xiao wens harassment interrogation (1/2)

However, hearing the worried and cowardly Bi Cheng who was standing at the side, Xiao Wen did not care about the upcoming war. He said to Bi Cheng with hatred for him being a disappointment to him, ”Brat, first listen to what these people have to say!” Then, he grabbed a ranger covered in blood, threw him to the corner of the wall, and carelessly stepped on his opponent's forehead.

Then he began to interrogate the fellow. At first, everyone thought that Xiao Wen would ask them who he was and who he was. However, Xiao Wen's method of interrogation had greatly surprised them — in 1268, the lens used for optical purposes was first recorded by Roger Bacon of England. However, at the same time, magnifying the lens in the frame for reading has appeared in Europe and China. There has always been a debate about whether the glasses were passed from Europe to China or from China to Europe.

In Europe, the earliest glasses appeared in Italy, introduced by Alessandrodi Spinaa of Florence. The earliest bespectacled portrait, ”Hughof Provenance”, was painted by Tommasoda Modena in 1352. As a result, in this world, even the people of Han and Qin Kingdom knew a lot about glasses.

Returning to the main topic, Xiao Wen who was standing on the ranger at the corner asked: ”Will the next line of the imperial court lead to death by night, or die late?”

Hearing Xiao Wen's question, the group looked at each other in dismay. Even if they were not Confucian Scholars who were familiar with the Confucian classics, they had heard that death was not a nightly death, nor was it a late death! He was clearly a scholar, but he actually made such a mistake. Everyone couldn't help but want to go up and correct Xiao Wen's mistake.

Just at this time, Sun Shangxiang's eyes turned as he thought of a possibility. She quickly stopped the others and let them wait and see. The fellow whose head was being stepped on was panicking and scared. When had he ever read before? He had never read a book, so how could he know?

Forget it! The ranger, whose head was being stepped on, did not know which to choose. Helpless, he could only say, ”Die at night, die at night!”

Hearing that, Xiao Wen revealed a smile as though he had succeeded in his conspiracy. He used his sign language to speak to Yang Xiu and Zhuge Liang: ”Prepare the brush and ink, record the interrogation record. This guy hasn't read a book. ”

Hearing this, Bi Cheng who had never learnt sign language and had no idea what was going on, felt better. Xiao Wen's students had all learned Sign Language, so they all knew what that meant. At this moment, Zhuge Liang was the first to react. He took out two brushes and a piece of ink from his sleeve. Yang Xiu also took out a few pieces of paper.

These things were all things that Xiao Wen had asked them to prepare regularly. Thus, after they asked Bi Cheng for some water, they quickly made preparations to record the information.

They kneeled on the ground, placed the brush and ink paper on the table, and quickly recorded the results of the interrogation that Xiao Wen had given out using his sign language. At this time, Bi Cheng walked over. He saw the beautiful words that Yang Xiu had practiced from a young age. He did not know that Yang Xiu was the eldest son of the aristocratic family and was trained by others at home, so he thought that Yang Xiu had done this because of him. Hence, he had great respect for Xiao Wen.

Following that, he saw the result of Xiao Wen's recording just now — the target of the interrogation had not been read!

The moment he saw this shoe, he was enlightened. He instantly understood everything.

It seemed that these people had never read a book, so they were not Confucian Scholars. And the way they were dressed as Confucian Scholars, it was clear that they were here to cause trouble.

Then, he heard Xiao Wen continue to ask: ”Are you a travelling adventurer who lives in the East City or the Western City?”

Hearing that, the travelling adventurer coughed twice and said, ”Sir, please don't joke around. How can there be anyone living in this Luoyang West Market? If the soldiers in the city find out that we live here, they'll beat us to a pulp. ”

Hearing that, Xiao Wen nodded. He continued to wave his hands towards Zhuge Liang and Yang Xiu, saying, ”They are rangers, rangers from the Luoyang, and they aren't from outside this region.”

Hearing Xiao Wen's words, Zhuge Liang and Yang Xiu could not help but sigh at Xiao Wen's actions. However, they quickly recorded this information down.
