Chapter 076: All Beings Are Equal

When the snow stopped, a stream of blood gushed out, dyeing the pure white snow mottled red. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Li Mi's head flew up slightly, and his eyes were full of disbelief, maybe Li Qifu's knife was too fast, and he didn't even have time to express his unwillingness. Then his head fell into the snow without making the slightest sound.

The knife was already clamped around his neck, and no one could stop Li Mi's death, Wang Bodang lost his mind for a moment, exclaimed, didn't care about aiming at his crossbow, and staggered towards Li Mi.

The other two were stunned, and reached out to grab the bows and crossbows of the people around them, but those young men were strong, how could they be close to them? As a few crossbow arrows were fired, the two strong men fell, and with the last of their strength, they tilted their heads towards Li Mi's corpse, and then swallowed their breath full of guilt, which moved the teenagers slightly.

The crossbow arrow on Wang Bodang's shoulder had not yet been pulled out, but he didn't realize it, holding Li Mi's head and crying bitterly, like a mourner.

This place is far away from Xiong'er Mountain, Li Gou is not worried that Wang Bodang's cry will attract the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, but he can't let Wang Bodang cry all the time, right?

"Mr. Bodang, have you ever mourned when so many innocent people died because of Li Mi?" Killing Li Mi, Li Gou looked calm, and he couldn't see the slightest smugness: "Gongzi said that as long as he lives, countless people will die because of him, and now his death is exchanged for the lives of 2,000 people on Bears Ears Mountain, what is there to be sad about?" ā€

"Sir's ambition, how can you understand it?" Wang Bodang glared at Li Gou angrily and reprimanded: "Emperor Yang has no virtue, and the rebels are everywhere, but how many people dare to fight against the imperial court?" Everyone only cared about Mingzhe's self-preservation, and only Mr. repeatedly defeated the army of the imperial court and almost captured Luoyang. If it weren't for Mr., how could Li Yuan dare to send troops from Taiyuan? How could Yu Wenhua kill Emperor Yang? How could the Great Sui perish? ā€

"Your husband is so powerful, why did he end up today?" Li Gou replied lightly: "Also, Mr. is wrong, the Great Sui did not perish. ā€

"But the current Southern Sui is no longer the former Great Sui court." Wang Bodang's face gradually turned pale, and Li Qijian was about to step forward to stop the bleeding and heal his wounds, but Wang Bodang waved his hand and refused: "Kill Mr., but it's the edict of Lord Zhou Guogong?" ā€

Li Gou was silent for a moment, nodded, he glanced at Li Mi's corpse, and said seriously: "Maybe sir, you think that he died too casually, but if a person dies, he is dead, so what's the difference between letting him die in Chang'an, Jiangdu or this snowy land?" Gongzi said that all living beings are equal, even if Li Mi once called for wind and rain, after death, it is just a piece of loess. ā€

It was cold, Li Mi's corpse quickly lost its temperature, and it was cold thoroughly, Wang Bodang took Li Mi's head back to his body with difficulty, knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully three times.

"When I left Chang'an, Bodang guessed that there would be today." Wang Bodang muttered to himself, "Sir, why don't you want to listen to the advice of your students? After saying that, he began to weep bitterly.

"People can't be resurrected after death, sir, please mourn." Li Gou comforted softly. Li Gou originally had good intentions, but when it fell into Wang Bodang's ears, it changed its taste, after all, Li Mi died in Li Gou's hands.

"Why don't you do it yet?" Wang Bodang endured his grief, stood up, and said without sorrow or joy: "Since you even dare to kill Mr., Bodang's life must not be in your eyes." ā€

"The gentleman is serious, and he is killing him because he deserves to die." Li Gou bowed and bowed, and arched his hand: "Mr. is a talented and loyal man, and the prince intends to invite Mr. to go south to Jiangdu to assist His Majesty Emperor Jing to calm down the turmoil." ā€

Li Mi lost power, Pei Renji and his son, Cheng Yanjin, Shan Xiongxin and others all returned to the Northern Sui, among the generals of Wagang, only Wang Bodang still followed Li Mi, even if he guessed that Li Mi's rebellion against Tang would eventually be killed, he still chose to accompany Li Mi.

It can be said that Wang Bodang and Zhang Xutuo are the same kind of people, and Li Xuanba hopes that Li Gou can convince Wang Bodang about this matter, but it is actually too difficult for Li Gou.

Sure enough, Wang Bodang smiled desolately, returned a salute, and said: "Mr. is dead, Bodang will naturally not live alone, in Bodang's heart, Mr. is the best scheming person in the world, but he still can't escape the calculation of Lord Zhou Guogong, with his ability, what does it matter if Bodang goes to Jiangdu or not?" ā€

"In the letter sent by Xia, General Xu has returned to the Southern Sui court." Li Gou shook his head and replied sincerely: "Don't hide it from Mr. Xu, in addition to General Xu, Dou Guogong, General Du, Liang Guogong and others have all surrendered, Shen Faxing will not be able to eat the ancients, and the imperial court will soon wave its army to the south, and the Southern Sui country is becoming more and more prosperous, and it is the time when a character like Mr. is needed." ā€

"These words, Zhou Guogong also asked you to say them?" Wang Bodang was slightly shocked when he heard this, and said with emotion: "It turns out that you didn't shoot Bodang before, but to persuade Bodang to surrender. After a pause, he sneered and continued: "But since he calls Bodang a loyal man, he should be able to think that Bodang will not defect to his teacher's enemy. ā€

"Could it be that Mr. wants to give up thousands of people in the world for Li Mi alone?" Li Gou sighed: "Gongzi expected that Mr. would definitely not want to defect to Nansui, this is the last question he asked Zaixia. ā€

"The people of the world have their own people to save them, but Mr. is only on the road, and he is too lonely, so Bodang can only refuse the kindness of Lord Zhou Guogong and follow Mr. Wang Bodang said frankly: "The gentleman is dead, and I hope that this general can allow Bodang to bury him." ā€

"Sir's request, I can't agree to it." Li Gou shook his head and said apologetically: "Li Mi's head, Gongzi has already promised to give it to a person, so it is impossible for him to be buried here." ā€

"When a person dies, shouldn't he be buried in the ground?" Wang Bodang was like meat on the anvil at this time, how dare he speak in a tough tone, he said softly: "Since Lord Zhou Guogong said that all living beings are equal, why do you look at my husband differently? ā€

Wang Bodang's question, Li Xuanba did not teach Li Gou, so Li Gou didn't know how to answer, so he could only choose to be silent.

"You didn't kill Mr. before, and you talked with him for a long time, since it was not to persuade Mr. to surrender, it was naturally to humiliate him." Seeing that Li Gou was silent, Wang Bodang continued: "Mr. is arrogant, and if he dies in the hands of you, he will inevitably be humiliated in his heart, and now that he is dead, why do you still refuse to let him go?" ā€

"Gongzi once said in private that one day, Li Mi will die without a place to be buried." Liang Xiao ran out of nowhere, he dusted off the snowflakes on his body, and said calmly: "Because of Li Mi's order back then, many people on both sides of the Yellow River starved to death in the wilderness, and they also had no one to bury. ā€

"Bodang understood." Wang Bodang's body was getting weaker and weaker, and he knew that his life was not long in coming, so he no longer tried to persuade Li Gou, but begged: "Bodang can't do what happened after Mr. is dead, I am really ashamed of Mr., and I also ask you to cut off Bodang's head, and wait for Mr.'s head to turn into white bones one day, and then bury Bodang's head and Mr. together."
