The water in the ding has been boiling, Li An wiped his neck, and fell into the ding, and there was no possibility of survival.

Li Jiuzhi and Li Qijian climbed the ladder as fast as they could, Li Song was a little slower, and picked up the firewood under the ding to a distance, everyone knew that it was futile to do anything at this time, but they still couldn't help but do it.

A fire burned the Zhengde Palace, Li Jiuzhi and Li Qijian carried the body wrapped in a quilt, Li Song carried Zhu Cang's head, followed closely behind Li Xuanba, and walked towards the outside of the Jialou Palace.

When cooking Zhu Cang, Li An almost went crazy, but he did not forget to keep Zhu Cang's head. Previously, Li Xuanba asked the soldiers to each slash Zhu Cang, and they also let go of Zhu Cang's not handsome face.

There are nearly 20,000 thieves in Dongcheng, and in addition to Guanxian County, there are also more than 100,000 troops who obey Zhu Cang's orders, keeping Zhu Cang's head and hanging it above the city gate, which will play a great role.

Hundreds of horsemen waited outside the Jialou Palace, and when Li Xuanba and a few people went out of the palace gate, someone led the horse over.

Li Xuanba turned over his horse and ordered someone to send Zhu Cang's head to Dongcheng, and sent another general to the city gate to pick up someone who was familiar with Li An, and then he didn't say a word, looking at the raging flames in the Jialou Palace in a daze.

Li Jiuzhi and the others were also unusually silent, and the tragic death of the three companions who had been together day and night was difficult for them to accept. When they are young, they have experienced too little life and death.

The general rode back with a young man, and under the young man's leadership, the group arrived at Ang Lee's house. There is a tree planted in the small courtyard, and there are two graves under the tree, and there are no tombstones.

Li Xuanba personally dug a pit and buried Li An, no one cut him in half according to Li An's will, and no one crumbled and cried.

Three tombstones made of wood. Deeply inserted in front of the grave, after doing all this, everyone was silent for a moment, bowed down, and left Ang Lee's house.

Of the three tombs, two were empty.

Li Xuanba did not think about transporting Li An's body back to Jiangdu. Because he knew that Ang Lee would definitely choose to stay and stay with the two brothers who died in front of him forever.

A few words that Li An said before he died made Li Xuanba and the others understand the ins and outs of the matter, they didn't want to know the details of the matter, so they didn't ask anything, and after leaving Li An's house, they never even mentioned the name Li An again.

"Nine Fingers, go and ask the soldiers who are fighting for the city gate with him. If they are willing to defect to the court, whatever their health, they will be recruited under your command. On the way to Dongcheng, Li Xuanba said: "There are also those two soldiers who have been delivering news to us, and you will also settle them down." ”

"The villain and those brothers don't bother Lord Zhou Guogong." The young man who led the way for Li Xuanba bowed down and bowed: "Zhu Cang is dead, our mission to live has been completed, it's time to do what we have to do." ”

"Zhu Cang is dead, you should live better!" Li Xuanba heard the intention of death from the young man's words. frowned: "In this world, there is nothing more important than being alive." ”

"Lord Zhou Guogong. You are wrong. The young man shook his head, and without explanation, bowed again, and turned away.

Li Xuanba wanted to persuade him more, but a general rode up to Li Xuanba's side and arched his hand: "The last general begs your lord to fulfill him." ”

Li Xuanba looked at him suspiciously. Remembering that he was the one who had been sent to the city gate earlier, he pondered for a moment and said, "Why? ”

The general hesitated for a moment, took a long breath, and replied respectfully, "Because everyone else has already committed suicide." There was a pause. The general continued: "The last general went to the city gate according to your orders, and they all waited in the same place, and when the last general had finished delivering your orders, he was pushed out by the people. At first, the last general didn't think much about it, and when the last general rushed back, he suddenly heard an exclamation from behind, and the last general looked back and saw that those people had all fallen to the ground. ”

"What!?" Li Xuanba's face turned pale, his heart seemed to have been pricked by a needle, and his voice was cold: "Why didn't you say it earlier!" ”

"He told the general not to talk too much, or he would kill himself immediately." The general's expression was slightly grim, and he said movingly: "On the way, he told the last general that they are all damned people, and the reason why they have lived until now is to witness Zhu Cang's death." ”

Looking at the young man's distant back, Li Xuanba arched his hand, and Li Jiuzhi and the others also arched their hands solemnly, both respecting and saying goodbye.

In front of them, a picture appeared in a trance.

Someone couldn't bear Zhu Cang's torture and was about to choose death, when suddenly a young man appeared in front of him and persuaded him to endure the humiliation and wait for the day when Zhu Cang died.

Soon, many people gathered around the young man, and there was never a smile on their faces, and when they ate people, they didn't even frown anymore, they only remembered one thing: Zhu Cang must die!

Li Xuanba remembered what Li An said at the gate of the city, he asked those people not to go to Jialou Palace, presumably hoping that they could live well after knowing that Zhu Cang was dead, right? It's a pity

"Are the two people who delivered the message still alive?" The night wind stopped in place for a long time, Li Xuanba had been thinking about some messy things, and when he came back to his senses, the figure of the young man had disappeared.

Li Song shook his head and replied, "After entering the city, the villain never saw them again. ”

"Well, since they have chosen this path, let them go on." Li Xuanba sighed and said to the generals in front of him: "In their own opinion, they are all damned people, but for Bengong, without them, Bengong would not have been able to enter the city at all, so they are all meritorious people." You take some soldiers, take their bodies to his house, dig a deep pit, and bury them all in that yard. ”

Li Xuanba's words were a little tongue-twisting, but the general heard it very clearly, he arched his hand towards Li Xuanba, and rode away.

When the soldiers in Dongcheng saw Zhu Cang's head, none of them showed a look of grief and indignation, but they all had a relieved expression.

Li Xuanba rode the night breeze, and under the guard of Li Jiuzhi and others, he walked into Dongcheng expressionlessly.

"Whatever you've done before, I'm not going to care." Li Xuanba dismounted and walked to the point of the general's platform, looked at the black crowd under the stage, and shouted loudly: "From today on, there is no more Han thief in the world, you are all free, my father hopes that you can retain your humanity in the future, even if you starve to death, don't think about eating other people's meat!" After saying that, he ordered them to take off their armor and let them go back to reunite with their relatives.

Li Xuanba did not have many soldiers and horses in his hands, and the nearly 20,000 troops in front of him were not a small number for him, but when he thought of their appearance when they ate people, Li Xuanba felt cold, and he didn't have the slightest idea of recruiting them into his command.
