Volume 1 The First Encounter Chapter 65 Entrusted to Someone to Do Things
In the dim room, the man in the night suit was tied to the chair with a lot of flowers, he had not taken a bath for more than ten days, his whole body was stinky, he was tied here to live a day without distinguishing between morning and dusk, three meals a day were sent over, and only when he was eating, he could move his wrist. It's not that he didn't want to run, but there are guards inside and outside the room, and he can't run away at all.
The brother who followed him had already been killed, and he was the only one left alive, and he also wanted to bite off the poison hidden in his mouth, and would rather be broken than broken, but the person who captured him seemed to have expected it in advance, and pinched his chin with a smile to find the pill, and crushed it with one kick. But the man didn't abuse him, let alone try to get words out of his mouth, and he didn't know what this man was trying to do.
The wooden door squeaked when it was pushed, and the light leaked in made the man have to squint at the comer.
The person who came was carrying a food box and a folding fan, and the expression of kindness and friendliness when he looked at him made people's scalps tingle.
Xu Lang saw the man staring at him, so he unfolded his folding fan and fanned it twice: "Little brother, it's dinner time again, are you looking forward to it." ”
The man didn't reply.
Xu Lang didn't mind, and ordered the two strong men who were guarding the side to step forward to untie the man, while he paced to the low table and took the dishes in the food box out the same, including meat, vegetarian and staple food, and the fragrance of rice overflowed the whole room in an instant.
The liberated man moved his wrist, looking at the dishes in front of him with some suspicion, this is a little wrong, although he will not be abused on weekdays, but the food he eats can barely fill his stomach, and it is no different from prison food, but at this table today, he just hasn't been caught, and he hasn't eaten such a sumptuous meal.
"What? Decapitated rice? ”
Xu Lang smiled: "How come, little brother, this is a misunderstanding of Xu, drinking?" ”
The man still didn't speak, and he didn't dare to step forward, Xu Lang took care of himself and asked someone to bring a jar of wine, and very generously poured a full bowl for the man, and poured a bowl for himself, took the lead in drinking it quickly, smacking his lips to indicate that it was not poisonous.
The man's stomach rumbled at the right time, and the man's face was a little embarrassed, but he still refused to touch the food.
Xu Lang said: "Little brother, why bother, aren't you hungry?" Xu assures you that even if Xu poisons the dish, it will be a safe poison that makes people go, which is definitely better than the feeling of starvation to death, little brother. ”
The man felt that what Xu Lang said made sense, to be a ghost is to be a full ghost, and a hungry ghost is too ugly.
So, pretending to confront Xu Lang for a while, he couldn't help but sit down at the dinner table and began to gobble it up.
Xu Lang didn't laugh at the man's unreservedness, he just poured himself a bowl of wine, sat on the side and shook a fan to watch the man eat, and occasionally took a sip of wine by himself.
After the man was half-full, he gradually slowed down and looked at Xu Lang: "Who are you?" ”
It's embarrassing to say that he doesn't even know who his captors are.
Xu Lang deprecated himself: "It doesn't matter who I am, nobody, you won't hear of it if you say it, but Xu wants to know who you are." ”
The man sneered: "It's the same nameless person, we are each other, this time it falls into your hands, count me unlucky!" If you want to kill or chop, listen to it! Want to know the news from my mouth, impossible! ”
"It seems that if I want to ask who your master is, there will be no answer."
"Humph!"
"Then I'll have to guess for myself." Xu Lang suddenly reached out and pulled off the man's already messy hair, and stroked his hair, revealing his original color, "You are from Xiliang Kingdom." ”
Xiliang, located in the Western Regions, is close to southern Xinjiang, and most of the people have brown hair and different eyes, so such a sign is easy to recognize anywhere.
Xu Lang continued: "You also came to Gale because you heard about the old case fifteen years ago, and there is still news that the old people are still alive. ”
When Xu Lang received the news, he guessed that when the news was released, there would definitely be action on Xiliang's side, so he made arrangements in advance, and as for Bai Zhi, he was also calculated in the morning, but it was better not to tell her.
"Yes and what, and what is not?"
Xu Lang ignored his words, and continued: "The old case fifteen years ago had nothing to do with the Xiliang royal family, when I arrested you, there was another living mouth, but he committed suicide by taking poison, so you are dead soldiers, as far as I know, the Xiliang royal family has dead soldiers, your king is one, his brother King Liang is also one, and only one of the children under the knees of the Xiliang Emperor is a little promising, but the age is not right, so, the master behind you is the king of Xiliang!" I don't know if Xu guessed right. ”
When the man heard this, a trace of happiness seemed to flash in his eyes, but he still pretended to say: "Even if it is, do you still want to provoke a war between countries?" If your Gale Emperor is really brainless to come here, it is really a blessing for me. ”
"Xiliang just fought a war with a small border country in the Western Regions a year ago, and it is no longer suitable to fight at this time."
"You may not be able to have a strong wind!"
Xu Lang was noncommittal, the gale is also very chaotic now, except for Gu Yanhuo and a few veterans who can only talk on paper and can no longer practice themselves, there is indeed no one who can lead the troops to fight, but today, what he wants to do is not to provoke a war.
"Little brother, don't be so tense." Xu Lang changed his aggressive attitude when he guessed before, and said very gently, "Xu came this time to hope that you can do something for me." ”
"Heh, are you in a bad head? Let the enemy do things for you? ”
"You have done this, Xu will let you go, and will send someone to escort you all the way back to Xiliang, how about it."
"What's the matter?"
Xu Lang put away the fan with satisfaction, took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, handed it to the man, and said, "You pour this bottle into the moat." ”
The man took a look at the cork, and immediately stuffed it back, and said in disbelief: "This is Gu?" You threw Gu into the moat? Aren't you a Gale Man? ”
"No one stipulates that people with strong winds can't throw Gu into the river, I have no grudge against the wind, and I can't see him better."
The resentment that flashed in Xu Lang's eyes didn't look like a fake, the man thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
"As long as I pour this into the river, you're going to let me go?"
"Of course, a gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase."
However, it's a pity that he Xu Lang is a villain, not a gentleman.
After the man had eaten his fill, he was taken down to take a shower, and by the way, he also changed his clothes, and he looked like a human dog. The people who were staring at him hadn't withdrawn yet, and the man didn't have the heart to play tricks, he was bent on moving his limbs and preparing to act tonight.
The people who followed Xu Lang were a little puzzled: "Sir, I have a question. ”
Xu Lang patted the curious baby Liao Qing beside him and said, "Every time you have a lot of questions, just ask." ”
"We obviously know that the person behind the scenes is not King Yu, but King Liang, why did Mr. just say that King Yu did it when he questioned him just now?"
Xu Lang's face was very serious, and he said: "Liao Qing, he is a dead soldier, and a dead soldier puts the task first, and if he does not complete the task, he will only die." But he heard life in my words. ”
"Why didn't I understand?"
"The dead man was killed, King Liang must have noticed something, if I just confirmed their perception and determined that the person behind it was King Liang, then that dead man would feel that his mission had failed, even if he went back, it would be a dead end, and it would be the same in anyone's hands." Xu Lang squinted his eyes and said, "But I deliberately said that it was King Yu, and he felt that there was still a glimmer of life in this matter, if he went back and told his master that we suspected King Yu, then King Liang would be able to lead the matter to King Yu." Coupled with what I want him to do, he will also feel that maybe we can cooperate to win the gale, and will naturally be willing to help us do things. ”
"Sir, awesome! It's not like I'm a big guy. ”
"That dead man should secretly send a message to King Liang, you don't have to stop him, after all, he will not die soon, let him send a letter, and be loyal."
"Yes."
"Speaking of which, how is your bet with Shangguan?"
Liao Qing came and said with interest: "That kid gambled on the latter, one hundred taels of silver, it must be mine!" What are you laughing at, sir? ”
Xu Lang smiled: "Shangguan is still smart, silly Liao Qing, you should save more money recently, the province's family has lost." ”
"Huh? Sir, why don't I understand again, shouldn't I lose in Shangguan? That Fifth Girl Gu is not as good-looking as Miss Qin, little boy he..."
Xu Lang shook his head with a smile, didn't speak, and walked to see.
