Chapter 208: Crowd Display?
After the soldiers went out, Ling Xiao shouted towards the door: "Hang the body of that captain in the barracks for all the soldiers to see!"
"Yes, General!"
The figures of the two black-armored soldiers outside the door flashed, and they stood at the door and bowed their hands, and then turned around and did things according to Ling Xiao's instructions.
A moment later.
Hukou Guanxi Gate, not far from a military camp.
In the middle of the barracks, a corpse was tied to a pole with a pestle, and the death was extremely tragic.
There were countless soldiers around, their faces full of horror and suspicion, staring at the corpse of the commander.
"What the hell is going on with this captain?"
"How do I know!"
"It can't be some kind of military law, right?"
"How can there be such a death appearance if you have violated military law, can't you just cut off your head?"
"Yes, then how did this captain die, and why did he still tie him up and show it to the public?"
"Now, those two soldiers are from the temporary command post, if you have the guts, you can ask?"
"I... I don't dare, if I offend the soldiers of the temporary command post, I'm afraid my life will be like a corpse on a pestle. ”
The onlookers whispered, and naturally felt a burst of fear in their hearts.
Needless to say, the corpse tied to this pestle rod shows that it is to kill chickens and monkeys, and show them it.
That's when --
A black-armored soldier next to the pestle stepped out, glanced at the onlookers, and said sharply: "Everyone, I am ordered by General Ling to display this corpse to the public, presumably everyone is very puzzled, this deceased is a military commander, why is it better to be tied here when he is dead?"
As he spoke, he glanced at the corpse on the pestle with disdain, and said angrily: "Captain Wu... actually flouted military law, did evil on his own, and molested a woman from a good family, and happened to be seen by General Ling, and slandered General Ling, this is the end he deserves!"
Just as the words fell, it caused an uproar among the onlookers.
"I see!"
"It's really damn it, I actually molested a woman from a good family, if you want to relax, just find a kiln sister. ”
"You can't live if you do your own evil, and you actually ran into General Ling, isn't this looking for death?"
Some soldiers have some bad intentions hidden and quickly put them behind at this time.
At the same time, I also felt a little lucky, fortunately I didn't do anything to flirt with a woman from a good family.
If you do, it will be like a corpse on a pestle?
However, the onlookers were shuddering in their hearts.
The black-armored soldier standing by the pestle made it clear, and this was also revealing an important piece of news to them.
That is, the new commander will take to the streets every now and then.
"Well, you'll have to pay to buy things on the street in the future!"
"I'll hurry up and settle the money for the last meal later!"
"I... I'll hurry up and return the little peach's red belly pocket!"
All of a sudden, the faces of the onlookers changed drastically, and their hearts were uneasy, so they turned around and fled in all directions.
The black-armored soldier standing by the pestle looked confused when he saw the soldier running away.
"Why is it like a mouse seeing a cat, and I don't eat you?"
He muttered.
...
In the evening.
Ling Xiao took difficult steps and kept wandering at the gate of the courtyard.
He was very entangled in his heart, whether to go in or not.
If you go in, what's going to happen tonight?
Did you really let Wanyan Asuqing sleep with him?
If this were to be known to Zilan, Ouyang Ning'er, and the disciples of the Sword Sect, what kind of eyes would they look at him?
"Hey!"
He let out a long sigh and lifted the step he was about to step onto the threshold, but retracted again.
"Wan'er, tell me what I'm going to do?"
His head was about to blow up, and he slowly raised his head and sighed bitterly when he looked up to the sky.
But Heaven did not answer him.
returned this tangled question to him as it was.
"Forget it, just sleep, what man doesn't have three wives and four concubines, not to mention that he is still a second-class general?"
Ling Xiao couldn't think of how to solve this problem, but he felt that he could do whatever he wanted!
At this time, he raised his foot again, stepped directly over the threshold, and slowly walked to the door of the room.
"Whoosh!"
He was standing in the doorway, and suddenly he smelled the smell of food.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw three dishes and one soup on the table, which were full of color, flavor and flavor.
Just looking at it made him greedy, and saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth.
"General, please take a seat!"
Seeing that Ling Xiao was back, Wanyan Asuqing smiled and stretched out her hand to pull out a stool.
Seeing Wanyan Asuqing blooming with a happy smile, Ling Xiao's eyes instantly moistened, and the pupils of his eyes were blurred.
Since coming out of the small mountain village, the food is not good and the taste is not good.
No woman cared about him like that.
I never thought that a concubine who came out of nowhere, would run the house and cook for him.
He won't be fed for a full meal, and the meals are all hot.
He felt very warm.
This kind of environment is a bit like the taste of home.
Suddenly, he slowly opened his mouth and thanked him sincerely: "Qing'er, thank you!"
Wanyan Asuqing blinked her cute eyes, looked at Ling Xiao's melancholy face, and couldn't help frowning.
She opened her mouth and asked softly, "General, what's wrong with you?"
"Hehe... Nothing?"
Ling Xiao felt a tear slip down his face, smiled suddenly, and immediately raised his hand to wipe the tears off his face, and sat down on the stool pulled out by Wanyan Asuqing.
"Huh?"
Wanyan Asuqing saw Ling Xiao's words, but she felt that Ling Xiao must have something in her heart, but she didn't want to say it.
She wanted to know and solve problems for Ling Xiao.
But she was too embarrassed to ask.
And she is very self-aware, because she can feel that Ling Xiao has not regarded her as a concubine yet.
After a pause, she slowly moved her steps, and her graceful posture also moved.
She walked to the opposite side of Ling Xiao and sat down gracefully.
"General, try it, isn't the food delicious?"
Wanyan Asuqing smiled slightly, raised her little hand as white as snow, and said.
"Hmm!"
Ling Xiao smiled and nodded, picked up the chopsticks, took a bite of the dish and ate it.
As soon as you eat it, the aroma is overwhelming.
He raised his hand, gave a thumbs up to Wanyan Asuqing, and said praisefully: "Qing'er, the taste is very good, it's good!"
Wanyan Asuqing couldn't help but be overjoyed when she heard the praise, and picked up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables for Ling Xiao.
She said with a smile while picking up vegetables: "General, eat more if it's delicious, I know you didn't eat it at noon!"
Ling Xiao peeked at Wanyan Asuqing, and saw Wanyan Asuqing's charming big eyes, which seemed to be surrounded by mist, rippling with charm, the corners of his small mouth were slightly upturned, and his thin lips were slightly open, wanting to lure him to kiss Fangze.
This is a woman who exudes charm from her bones, and her every move seems to seduce him all the time and tug at his nerves.
Suddenly, he was short of breath and felt his heart and blood rage, like the mud flow of an erupting volcano, and his whole body was on fire, and his face turned red from the burning.
Suddenly, he lowered his right hand and pinched his leg hard, the pain making him sober up a bit.
"I... What the hell is wrong with me?"
He was stunned.
"Are you fascinated by Qing'er?"
He blinked his eyes a few times, and looked at Wanyan Asuqing with suspicious eyes.
"Impossible? Although Qing'er is very beautiful, I haven't seen a more beautiful woman?"
He frowned, completely denying the thought.
