The bonfire was re-lit, and as the morning stars on the horizon grew brighter, the appearance of the forest was gradually revealed.

The ground was covered with stumps, severed arms, and dried blood, and the traces of the battle remained on the broken branches of the grass and trees.

Standing in a clean place, watching everyone tidy up the mess in an orderly manner, and the injured guards were also being bandaged, Shu Yang slowly paced to the side.

"Sir. ”

Wiping the sweat from his face, Yang Cheng walked towards Shu Yang from the crowd.

"How's it going? What about the casualties?"

Shu Yang pressed his hand, signaling that he didn't have to be polite, and asked directly.

The group of people who came last night were far more cruel than imagined, and the swords were bloody and not to mention, it was a common thing to stab, but all the swords were quenched with poison, but all the injured people were already weak and powerless at this moment, if it wasn't for Shu Yang's timely action last night, I am afraid that today's forest is already a purgatory on earth.

In fact, even at this time, it may not be much better.

"Two people died, because the sharp blade stabbed directly into the heart, and there were nineteen wounded, and they had been cleaned up according to the medicine given by the husband, and the blood had stopped in time, and they would be ready to go at any time when they were cleaned up later. ”

Looking at the crowd sitting around him, a trace of unbearability flashed on Yang Cheng's face.

These people are all good brothers who follow him to do things for the third son, they drink wine and eat meat together on weekdays, they are born and die, they thought they could live well all the time, but who knew that when they went out this time, they had already come true.

Soon, however, this sadness was replaced by a look of perseverance.

Scholars can't be without Hongyi. There is a long way to go, and benevolence is its own responsibility, and it is not too heavy to die. Isn't it far away?

Whether it is him or others, these sons and daughters are working hard for their own ambitions, and they have been prepared for life and death as early as when they decided to do things for their sons and embark on this road, and if it really comes to such a point, where will they be afraid to retreat because of this?

"Don't rush to the road, everyone was tired last night. Rest for a while, wait until the hour is over, and then set off again. They won't come again. There is no time to come again. ”

Hearing Yang Cheng's words, Shu Yang understood what he meant, he was afraid that now their whereabouts had been exposed, if those people made a comeback. I'm afraid that I can't stand such wear and tear anymore. Therefore, for the sake of Shuyang's safety, no matter how hard and tired they are, they must first escort Shuyang to Anyang safely.

"Sir, do you know who they are?" Yang Cheng was stunned.

"Don't you know?"

Shu Yang smiled and looked at him lightly.

"I ......"

Yang Cheng's voice gradually stopped, but the hands in his sleeves were clenched tightly: "The second prince is really ruthless this time. ”

"Haha, you'd be wrong to say that. Shu Yang looked up to the sky and laughed, looking at the puzzlement on Yang Cheng's face. Suddenly asked him, "You are at home, how does Mrs. Ru treat you?"

Yang Cheng didn't expect Shu Yang to suddenly mention himself. Thinking that when he explained his relationship with Yunqing in Pingzhou Courtyard that day, he talked about it, and this is also a fact that the whole Anyang understands, so he didn't hide it, but said:

"One set before the person, one set after the other. Her father doted on her and loved her, so he believed in her unconditionally, and she played the role of a loving mother in front of him, but behind his back, he arranged for someone to drug my food, and even framed me for destroying the innocence of someone else's girl, who was a distant cousin of her mother's family, and because of her misconduct, she could not marry in the family for a long time......"

"If you are like this, what about your mother and everyone else?"

"Mother......" Yang Cheng's eyes narrowed, "My mother, I'm afraid that she will be victimized...... The others, those who have a little thought about their father, were either married to Xiao Si, who likes to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, or they were sent out and sold to the tooth shop......"

"So you see, if you say ruthless, it's for the sentient person, and for the ruthless person, it's just a means of suppression, especially for the enemy, and sometimes, it's the opposite of whether you die or I die. ”

"Sir is trying to exonerate them?"

Yang Cheng was puzzled, but because of the ruthlessness of the Zhao family, Shu Yang seemed to explain her involuntarily, which made Yang Cheng a little dissatisfied.

"Yes, to excuse them – because it's also to excuse ourselves. ”

Shu Yang looked at him, his expression became calmer, and he pointed to the dozens of corpses accumulated on the side: "Since the end of last night, you haven't looked there again, can you sue me, what is the reason?"

Yang Cheng's complexion changed slightly, and he stiffened his neck, but he really didn't look at that place.

"This is the first time that Yang Xiaojiang has killed so many people, right?"

Shu Yang walked a few steps there, looking at the piles of corpses in front of him, but no longer looked at Yang Cheng behind him.

"Sir has too much to do. ”

Holding his mind hard and stabilizing his breath, Yang Cheng said coldly.

"Brothers fight, cannibalism, this is such cruelty and truth, if even Yang Xiaojiang can't face such a reality, then what's the point of the third prince inviting me to Anyang?

"I thought that no matter what the master was, at least the people around the third prince were people who were prepared, had a clear position, and already knew what they were going to face.

"But the young general is like this, it really makes Shu feel cold.

"The woman still knows that when the glory is at stake, in order to protect her own wealth, she needs to be evil and ruthless, but the son of a great thing, when faced with the choice of life and death, he actually has unbearable and cowering, but I don't know, if the third prince is besieged in the future, will you also have such ignorant mercy for the enemy?"

On the corpse in front of him, all the sword wounds avoided the key points of life and death, at most it could only make it difficult for people to walk, but they could never be killed, which is why last night, obviously he had made arrangements, but those men in black always seemed to be incomplete.

If it weren't for the fact that he burned medicine in the fire and urged him with the wind, I am afraid that more people would die among the people on this trip.

"Sir...... It's Yang Chengzhi's fault. But this matter has nothing to do with the third prince! The prince knows what he has to do, otherwise he would not have gone up the mountain many times to ask Mr. Wang, let alone get involved in such a battle lightly. I implore Mr. not to be angry, Yang Cheng will definitely learn a lesson, and he will never be a woman again. Last night almost ruined Mr.'s plan. The injured brothers were injured, and Yang Cheng took all the responsibilities, and asked Mr. to punish him, and when he returned to Anyang in the future, Yang Cheng would also ask his son for his guilt!"

Hearing Shu Yang's words, Yang Cheng knelt down suddenly. Almost with a bit of compulsion and reluctance, he stared at the pile of corpses, thinking about the two men whose faces were dark. The brother who can no longer drink with him.

Shu Yang was right, even last night, he was still unwilling to kill the group of people in black, because his mother believed in Buddhism before her death. The most feared thing is to kill and create evil.

When my mother was alive. Even an ant is reluctant to step on it, and what he is taught is to be kind to others and be a good person worthy of his conscience.

So even after following Gongzi, he tried his best not to kill the enemy, and Su Yi also said him a few times because of this, but he never passed the hurdle in his heart, and he never sat down like Wu Liang. It's a life.

Last night...... It was the first time he had killed someone.

"Punishment and plea for guilt are useless things. I just want you to understand. Kindness is not a mistake, but when it comes to the choice of life and death, when others want your life, all your counterattacks are excusable. Otherwise, acting like yesterday is not benevolence or kindness, but stupidity, giving the enemy more opportunities and obstacles.

"Think about your two dead people, think about why they died, and then, I want to see a military general who really takes on great responsibilities and has enough courage and courage, not a Confucian who only has the benevolence of a woman and does not distinguish between right and wrong.

"You are kneeling now, it is not me, you are begging, it is not me, you are asking for yourself, kneeling because of your dead brother. ”

Shu Yang didn't dodge, but glanced at him, said coldly, and then walked over his place and walked to the side.

If you figure it out, you will take someone to prepare to set off, if you don't understand, then when you arrive in Anyang, Yang Xiaojiang is only afraid that you will have to change places. ”

Listening to Shu Yang's words, Yang Cheng's face gradually turned pale, and sweat droplets the size of beans gradually oozed from his forehead.

After a long time, he raised his head again, stared straight at the pile of corpses in front of him, and slowly stood up.

Mother, perhaps, we are all wrong......

It is foolish not to have the kindness of discerning between right and wrong......

Looking at Shu Yang coming, all the guards were a little silent, just looking at him, but they didn't know how to speak.

They didn't hear what Shu Yang and Yang Xiaojiang said clearly, but from the moment they saw Yang Cheng kneeling, the scene that was still a little noisy suddenly quieted down, so Shu Yang's words in the back also drifted into their ears piecemeal.

thought that Shu Yang was deliberately making things difficult for Yang Cheng, or deliberately throwing off the eccentric nature of those so-called literati, but they didn't expect that this was the reason.

Benevolence, right and wrong.

It's a question they've never thought about.

I thought that all life and death were just fate, but now, not only my own life, but also the life of the association, and the lives of everyone present are all connected......

Shu Yang didn't care about these things, he had been following his unstoppable gaze since he moved, and he didn't care how they would think of him, so he walked to the side of the carriage on the side.

Luan Ge was clever and heard the sound as early as he stepped in, so he lifted the curtain and nodded with him.

"Are you alright?" Shu Yang asked her.

"It's okay, it's just that I can't stand the smell of blood like this. Covering his nose, Luan Ge's face was a little pale.

She had been holding back when she had been whipping up the battle last night, but when the men retreated, she finally couldn't help but vomit when she looked at the tragic scene in front of her.

There was water by the river to draw water for cooking, and after she had eased a little, she went back to the car, although the carriage and horses were as far away from the scene as possible, but the breath, when the curtain was lifted, would still blow with the early morning wind.

"I'm sorry, I should have told you in advance last night, so that you can be prepared. Originally, they were all on guard, but later, they ...... Expecting something went wrong, you were frightened by not being able to solve those people in time. ”

Looking at Shu Yang's somewhat guilty look, Luan Ge glared at him: "Am I so delicate and such an unreasonable person?" Now that I think about it, I am indeed very angry, but it is not because you are angry except for the problem, but because you were angry that you did not tell me about this in the first place. I am not a weak woman who needs to be protected like Yun Wan and Yun Qing, and I hope that I am also obliged to take on such a responsibility. ”

"If such a thing happens in the future, I will take me into account as long as you do with them, and let me share a part of it. Looking at Shu Yang, Luan Ge breathed a sigh of relief and said seriously.

Looking at Luan Ge's serious expression, Shu Yang's heart suddenly felt a little warm, and his face showed the first real smile of the day.

"Good. ”

Taking advantage of the moment when Luan Ge lowered his head, he reached out and rubbed her hair, pampering and promised.

"Ahh

Slapping Shu Yang's arm away, Luan Ge glared at him again.

Shu Yang smiled and withdrew his hand, but heard Luan Ge's voice rise again: "Go and see Yun Wan and Yun Qing, I'm afraid that I was scared a lot last night." ”

Thinking of the scene where the two were brought back from behind the tree, Luan Ge pressed his eyebrows.

Last night, she took advantage of the chaos to take Yun Wan and Yun Qing to hide behind a tree, and for the sake of safety, she added a barrier around the two, if it wasn't for the person who performed the spell or the person inside took the initiative to step out, the outside would definitely not hurt the inside.

Because Shu Yang had already told her that it was best not to use magic unless necessary, so she just opened such a small enchantment.

I thought I didn't have to worry anymore, but who knew that Yun Wan didn't stop Yun Qing in the end, let her run out from behind the tree, and happened to encounter a long arrow shooting, and she was about to stab Yun Qing when she saw it, but Yun Wan quickly pushed her away, and blocked an arrow for her.

Fortunately, it was just a broken skin, but Yunqing kept blaming herself and crying because of this, and because she saw such a scene at dawn, she was even more frightened and cried, Yang Cheng was the first to come to see it, and she was beaten and scolded by her, until now, Luan Ge can still hear the sobbing sound not far away.

"I see. ”

Shu Yang nodded, looked at her with a tired face, and comforted: "Don't worry, Yun Wan will be fine, Yun Qing is there, I'll talk about it again, you have a good rest." ”

"Hmm. ”

Luan Ge responded, then lowered the curtain, moved Liuliang, who was sleeping on the side, and Ah Lan, who came in at some point, and leaned against the wall of the car.

In the situation like last night, with Shu Yang's ability, he could obviously move his fingers to form a barrier to counterattack and solve all the assassins lightly, but not only did he not, but even the wind later was only controlled by the power of nature and internal force.

Did he really want to do that as he had said earlier, just an ordinary person, as a staff member, to accomplish that thing?

Luan Ge couldn't figure it out, and he didn't bother to think about it anymore, so he changed the cushion behind him again, found a comfortable position, closed his eyes and rested. (To be continued.) )
