Chapter 48: Buried Pits

Before coming to Wancheng, except for Chen Wu and Liu Shuang, the dead soldiers were not very convinced by Cao Shuo in their hearts.

Everyone was wondering if this sick man, who had never made any achievements, could really take them to steal the corpse.

The fact is that Cao Shuo not only took them to steal out the corpses, but also took them away from Wancheng one by one, and everyone was completely convinced of him.

Without the tools to dig the pit, several dead soldiers had to choose to use weapons to dig the earth.

Cao Shuo was half-lying on the throne of the carriage, with a straw in his mouth, staring at the night sky.

The night sky is full of stars, and the stars bring life to the winter nights.

"Childe, do you think the pit is dug?" Chen Wu ran to his side, wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and said breathlessly.

"Digging a pit can be tired like this?" Cao Shuo asked.

"No shovels." Chen Wu said: "The brothers dug it out with daggers! ”

"It's really hard for you." Cao Shuo jumped out of the carriage and walked towards the dirt pit.

Glancing into the pit, Cao Shuo said, "Let you throw the body in, and it's not buried, why are you digging so deep?" ”

"Childe ordered to dig a pit, so we dug a little deeper." Chen Wu said.

"Don't get so deep next time, no wonder you're tired and sweating profusely." Cao Shuo said: "Put the corpse in, cover it with a thin layer of soil, and take it out early tomorrow morning." ”

"Do you want to cover the soil?" Liu Shuang said: "Throw it in, you won't have it." ”

"The smell is going up." Cao Shuo said: "You don't need to cover it with soil, just dig a pit for fart?" ”

Liu Shuang said to a few dead soldiers: "Brothers, take a hand and invite the eldest son and the Diansu guard to enter the pit." ”

Everyone lifted the corpse, one by one cautiously, for fear of falling in front of Cao Shuo.

The body was put into the pit, and they pushed some floating dirt into it.

The floating soil covered the corpse, and the stench was indeed much less.

"I can finally catch my breath." Cao Shuo said: "A few of you too, the corpse was placed next to it just now, it stinks, and you can eat it!" ”

Liu Shuang and the others didn't dare to pick up the stubble, but they muttered in their hearts, you are the old man who leads the team, if you don't speak, who dares to bury the corpse?

"It's getting late, it's time for Childe to rest." Liu Shuang reminded.

"It's time to rest." Cao Shuo said: "Liu Shuang, Chen Wu, you two come with me, and I have something to arrange for you two to do." ”

Liu Shuang and Chen Wu followed Cao Shuo to the carriage.

"When we came to Wancheng, we passed through several villages and small towns." Cao Shuo said: "Tomorrow we will go to the nearest town here, and you two will do something." ”

"Childe, please." Liu Shuang and Chen Wu clasped their fists and said.

"I want you two to go to the tavern in town for a drink." Cao Shuo said: "The best drink is red-faced and red-eared, as if you are drunk." ”

The two of them were stunned for a moment, and Liu Shuang said: "Son's hard work, but I'm afraid it's not appropriate for the two of us to go to drink." ”

"It's certainly not appropriate to drink for no reason." Cao Shuo said: "If you can get things done by drinking, then it's appropriate!" ”

"Can you get things done by drinking?" Chen Wu asked.

"Absolutely." Cao Shuo said: "I will take Miss Qinnu from the town tomorrow, and I will choose a tavern to eat." You two pretend to be drinkers, and when we leave, we will say that Miss Qin Nu is the assassin who assassinated General Hu, and there will be a heavy reward for sending a message to General Hu. ”

"What is Childe going to do?" Liu Shuang asked, "Isn't this leading Hu Che'er to chase us?" ”

"What I want is for someone to report and ask him to chase him." Cao Shuo said: "This time I came to Wancheng and stole the bodies of the eldest brother and the Diansu guard, although I have already made meritorious contributions, but the credit is not great. If Hu Che'er can be killed, wouldn't it be a greater credit? ”

"I heard that the Diansu guard was killed by Hu Che'er stealing his double halberd." Liu Shuang said: "The trouble is that he will definitely bring a lot of people with him when he comes to catch up, and we will ...... these few people."

"There are not many soldiers." Cao Shuo said: "It is impossible for him to take a few thousand people out of the city to capture the assassins, at most he will bring dozens of fast horses. On the way to Wancheng, I observed that there was a forest on the way to Wancheng. We lay in ambush in the woods, and he came and went! ”

Although Cao Shuo was cynical and even took them to a tavern in Wancheng to find beautiful women, he did not miss a single decision.

Liu Shuang and Chen Wu had already trusted him thoroughly.

The two didn't ask any more questions, and hugged their fists in agreement.

"It's getting late, Childe rest early." Liu Shuang reminded again.

"Why do you keep urging me to sleep?" Cao Shuo asked.

"It's a long way back to Xudu, and I have to ambush Hu Che'er halfway through." Liu Shuang said: "Son, rest early, so you can take us on the road." ”

"Do you just want me to sleep in a tent with Miss Qinnu?" Cao Shuo said: "I wondered, how could a serious person like me take such a lewd soldier as you?" ”

Liu Shuang's head is full of black lines.

In other words, if he was serious, he might have believed it.

The words came out of the mouth of the second son, and he felt weird as if something was wrong.

"Go to sleep!" Cao Shuo waved his hand: "You two still have important things to do tomorrow!" ”

"Childe doesn't go back to the tent, what should I do at night?" Chen Wu said: "Or I will let the brothers give up the tent to Gongzi." ”

"I sleep in a tent, and you sleep in the wild?" Cao Shuo said: "If it's in the summer, forget it, on a cold day, sleep outside, and you will freeze to death tomorrow morning." ”

"When we first arrived in Wancheng, we slept in the open." Chen Wu said: "The brothers have rough skin and thick meat, and they are also used to suffering. It's still Childe sleeping in a tent, and we are more at ease. ”

"I'll sleep in a carriage." Cao Shuo said: "Sleeping in the carriage, sheltering from the wind and rain, I can't hear your snoring." ”

"Childe ......" Liu Shuang and Chen Wu still want to persuade again.

Cao Shuo interrupted them: "Go to sleep, leave a personal guard." Although we are far away from Wancheng, we can't sleep with our legs stretched out before we return to Xudu. ”

The two knew that they couldn't persuade him, so they had to agree.

They returned to the tent, and one of the dead men asked, "Childe hasn't slept yet?" ”

"Childe's tent is occupied by Miss Qinnu, and he has to sleep in a carriage at night." Liu Shuang said.

"Let Childe sleep in a carriage?" Several dead soldiers who had already fallen asleep also sat up, and one of them said, "Miss Qinnu is too much......

"Be quiet, don't let Childe hear." Chen Wu said: "Who dares to say more about what he decides? ”

"Childe slept in the carriage, but we slept in the tent." Another dead man said, "It is better to give up the tent to the son, and the brothers will sleep in the field." ”

"We just mentioned giving up the tent to Childe." Chen Wu said: "But he doesn't want to, what can we do?" ”

"Childe is sympathetic to his subordinates, if only he could follow him for the rest of his life!" A dead man said.

"Sleep!" Liu Shuang said: "Don't forget to take turns to be on guard at night!" ”
