Chapter 622: The Deceased

"Who are the people of a simple wooden fence city like Lintun?"

Standing at the back of the middle of the line, centurion Liu Ji gave a thumbs up to the humble town in front of him and smiled contemptuously:

"Samhan, who uses wood and stone as weapons, Donghao, who is helpless in the face of walls higher than them, and wild boars and jackals."

This made everyone laugh, but the military judge did not laugh, but just stared at him with his spare eyes.

Right now, what Lintun has to face is the 3,000 Qin army that has been recuperating in Hancheng for half a year! The four ships have blocked the sea, eliminating all possible escape, relying on the dense woods outside the city, the craftsmen quickly build a ladder, as for the siege engine? There was no need at all, even if the city gate was not split by the giant axe, it would be opened from the inside by the Qin soldiers who crossed the wall.

Twelve years ago, he was a guest under Waihuang Zhang'er, coinciding with the Qin army's siege, Liu Ji was still a light man who was the enemy of Qin at that time, he killed a Qin pawn, and he was still on the city wall, and his nemesis was face-to-face......

Liu Ji has always felt that the second half of his life was ruined by that meeting, and in the past three years, his fate has been shrouded in a thick night, and there is no light.

Now that he is on the battlefield again, his identity has been reversed, and he has become a Qin official who chased and suppressed traitors from a light man who fled in a hurry......

Although Heifu was the supervisor of the army and pointed fingers at this war, the pre-battle commander of this battle was still Fusu.

Childe Fusu is not very good at fighting, but he has an advantage, that is, he is good at listening to other people's opinions. At the suggestion of several commanders, the Qin army surrounded the three and missing one, like a raging sea tide rushing towards Xiaoyi, soon shattering the outer wall, and countless black seawater poured into it......

And Liu Ji and their group of Jiaodong soldiers who were arranged by Heifu to help them were responsible for blocking the periphery, and the rest of Canghaijun's troops numbered two thousand, and they were rushed by the Qin army, and there must have been many panicked people who fled from the vacant east gate, and they could just be caught by the Jiaodong soldiers.

But they still underestimate the survival of people in a desperate situation**, Lintun is like an exploding cauldron, and there are still Canghai Jun's sworn friends in the city who resist stubbornly, and there are thousands of people who don't want to die with him, and run out of it crazily. Liu Ji, the five hundred people, was a little scrambling for a while, caught most of them, but also let more than 100 of them run out of the gap.

Liu Ji and the others had no choice but to follow the orders of the five hundred lords to go to recover this group of people, those people were familiar with the terrain and knew that the only possibility of survival was to go to the mountains and forests, and the Jiaodong soldiers followed closely behind, and the formation began to disperse.

Liu Ji saw the right time, snatched the scout's horse, and chased a figure who fled in a hurry into the woods alone, at this moment, he only felt that the eyes that had been staring at his back had finally disappeared......

He knew that this time Jiaodong reinforced Haidong, among the 1,000 people dispatched, five hundred masters, military judges and several centurions were all Heifu's doormen, and the military judge's eyes were always staring at him, as if he was looking forward to Liu Ji's escape before the battle!

Before leaving, Heifu must have said something to them, Liu Ji guessed.

Although, Liu Ji still doesn't know, what is the purpose of that big man playing with him in the palm of his hand like this?

Sometimes, when Liu Ji was aggrieved, he would think in his heart: "If that black guy is a good Longyang, he likes a man with a thick beard, and it is a big deal for the prince to sell his ass a few times!" ”

But Hefu's purpose is like a fog, which makes people incomprehensible, which is uncomfortable.

But Liu Ji has an intuition that for himself, Heifu has always hesitated between killing or not killing......

Liu Ji spared his life and didn't want to give Heifu an excuse, but it was just a moment out of surveillance and control, which made him want to shout loudly.

He knew that he couldn't run far, and it was even better to fall alone in the grass and exotic mountains and forests, not to mention, after Liu Ji was scared by Heifu a few times, he always felt that Heifu could read minds, no matter where he fled to or what he wanted, it seemed that he couldn't escape his eyes.

So this time in the forest, Liu Ji didn't want to escape, he really wanted to catch the thief who escaped, maybe relying on this human head, with the posture of being a dog for the Qin people, could make Heifu relax his vigilance a little?

But when Liu Ji caught up with the thief, flew down and put him down here, and was about to raise his sword to kill this person, the man stared at Liu Ji's face with wide eyes, and shouted tentatively:

"You're Liu ...... Liu Ji? ”

……

"I never thought that I would see Brother Ji here."

The thief was very excited, and Liu Ji's sword was slowly lowered, with a complicated expression.

"Tian Meng, it's actually you!"

It's really a coincidence that the book is not written, and the henchmen of Canghai Jun in front of him are actually rangers who have been eating and living with him for several months in Waihuang!

Liu Ji was not famous back then, and he was not a distinguished guest, so he naturally had to live with others. And the person with a scar on his face in front of him is a Qidi light man, named Tian Meng, who often boasts that he is the prince of Tian Qi, and his ancestors are also generous. Although Tian Meng was poor and only had a broken sword, he was very generous, even if he only had a penny left, he had to break it in half and give it to Liu Ji to spend together, which was very appetizing to him.

After Wai Huang fell, Liu Ji ran away with Zhang Er, and the others, like today's Canghai Jun's henchmen, fled in all directions, Liu Ji hadn't seen Tian Meng for twelve years, who expected, he actually bumped into him here! When the old people meet again, it is this life-and-death situation.

Liu Ji's beard that he had shaved off had grown into his former appearance, so that Tian Ji could recognize him, after all, he was a roommate who had slept on the bunk, and he was very familiar, and Tian Meng had suffered a lot and described it as withered, but his voice, Liu Ji was too familiar.

"Why are you in this Haidong, under the command of Canghai Jun?"

Even if Tian Meng doesn't say it, Liu Ji can probably guess the reason, this Tian Meng is a native of Qi, after the death of Wei, he must have returned to Qi, but within a few years, Qi also died, Tian Meng has a strong personality, probably because he does not want to be a slave to the country, so he began to go overseas, perhaps following Yongmen Sima and Tian Heng, and finally came to Canghai......

Canghai Jun's subordinates not only sheltered a large number of remnants of the Six Kingdoms, but even escaped from the Qin Palace.

But I didn't expect that after running for more than ten years, I returned to the beginning again and again.

Tian Meng briefly said his own business, and looked at Liu Ji's eyes full of doubts: "Look at your dress, could it be that you are a Qin pawn?" Or ......"

He caught a glimpse of the crooked bun on Liu Ji's head: "Qin officials? ”

Liu Ji immediately smiled bitterly and said, "I can't help myself, I'm ...... now He is a small captain in the Qin army. My brother, Lao Liu, I am getting more and more mixed up, I still wanted to be Ren Xia back then, but now I have lost my strength by this hard life, I am in my forties, my beard is almost gray, and I still have to serve, driven by others, and this life is like this. ”

This brother called him kindly, as if he had returned to the time when Ren Xia was angry, Tian Meng was a little moved, but he didn't notice that Liu Ji sighed there, but the sword in his hand never left Tian Meng!

Shouts sounded in the distance, the greetings ended here, the chasing soldiers would arrive at any time, and the desire to survive made Tian Meng raise his head sharply and said: "Brother Ji, I know that you are the most righteous, let me go!" ”

Liu Ji stresses righteousness, this is Tian Meng's impression all along, like him, Liu Ji is also a person who is drunk today, Ren Xia is angry, especially before Waihuang was besieged, what he said in front of Zhang Er and a group of light heroes, that generous statement, Tian Meng still remembers!

"I have always respected the name of Xinling Jun, and I heard that Zhang Jun is an old guest of Xinling, and the ambition of the step-son, so I came from Peishang to eat under Zhang Jun's door. Although he has only been a guest for a few months, the husband should keep his promise and keep his promises, and now the owner of the door is in trouble, as a guest, how can he abandon him? ”

"If Zhang Jun wants to lead the people to Qin Kou, Liu Ji of Pei County, he is willing to follow! I don't regret dying! ”

It was this remark that made all the light heroes under Zhang Ermen respond in a group and fight a battle in Waihuang, although they lost very badly, just like today.

Tian Meng didn't know that Lao Liu said it nicely, but in his inner monologue, he killed a Qin pawn and repaid Zhang Er for a few months of wine and meat, and he was about to run away. "Liu Ji is good and righteous" has become the last memory of this exiled light man's life in Wai Huang, Tian Meng believes that Xinlingjun can save the needy, and now, Liu Ji can also let him go!

"It's nature."

Liu Ji was suddenly relieved, he ignored the shouts that were getting closer and closer behind him, smiled, and said hurriedly: "You run faster, I pretended to fight with you, and I was kicked down by you and flashed my waist, and I can't catch up with you!" ”

As he spoke, Liu Ji groaned, sat down on the ground, his face was painful, if he didn't know, he really thought he was injured.

"Thank you, Brother Ji, the great favor is beyond repayment!"

Tian Mengru was amnesty, and he couldn't care about thanking him, so he quickly got up and ran towards the mountains and forests, but he was knocked down by Liu Ji when he hit his foot, so he limped.

But he had only taken a few steps when he heard the faint sound of the crossbow machine winding, and before he could react, a sharp sword that came from the string shot through his back and straight through his chest!

The violent impact made the running Tian Meng rise into the air and fall to the ground with a bang, and when he turned his head with difficulty, he saw Liu Ji holding a crossbow machine, standing up, and looking at him coldly.

The beard is still a beard, but the look is wrong, it is no longer the boldness and courage of the light man, but it is infected with ruthlessness and sophistication.

Tian Meng couldn't believe it, but Liu Ji calmly wound the crossbow again, and this time, he aimed it at Tian Meng's head.

"You, for...... Why ......"

Before Tian Meng could finish asking, Liu Ji pulled the bracket again, and a crossbow shot through Tian Meng's eye socket!

"Liu Ji, come back quickly, who let you run!"

Behind them was the shouts of the five hundred lords and military judges, and they really got the order of Heifu to look at Liu Ji and pay attention to his every move.

Liu Ji only leisurely cut off Tian Meng's head, turned around, raised the head of the deceased who was blind to death, and said with a smile:

"Five hundred lords, didn't I see the thief fleeing, and I was in a hurry, he could really run, and I almost made him slip away! You have to write down this head! ”

The five hundred lords and the military judge scolded and scolded, but they didn't say anything to Liu Ji, and when he stepped on the horse again, Liu Ji looked down at Tian Meng's head and sighed.

Tian Meng has already been injured and can't run far, if Liu Ji really lets him go, when Tian Meng is caught, he will probably betray Liu Ji.

Even if he was captured on the spot, Tian Mengruo told Liu Ji's past afterwards, even though Heifu already knew about it, it would not be good for Liu Ji.

After thinking about it, there are risks in letting it go and keeping it, so it's better to kill it with your own hands.

Dead people don't chew their tongues.

Gently patting the head hanging on his waist, Liu Ji secretly said in his heart:

"Brother, don't blame me, blame yourself, if I were you, I should take advantage of the hesitation to grab the sword and kill me!"

Loyalty? Can it help Liu Ji change his situation? They have long been put in the back of their minds, and what Liu Ji is concerned about now is how to survive.

Tian Meng's face was already cold, and the blood was dripping, falling on Liu Ji's legs, and the eyes that had been shot through looked at Liu Ji vacantly, as if condemning him.

But Liu Ji turned a blind eye, and there was a hint of cruelty in his eyes:

"People who don't have the ability don't deserve to live in this world."

"The same goes for the soft-hearted!"
