Chapter 106 [The End of the Road] (Medium)
Shi Qi used the bronze sword to silently dig a soil pit in the same place, and he cried while digging, it seems that his friendship with Gongzi Sheng is indeed deep. Because www.biquge.info was too emotional, he spurted out several mouthfuls of blood, his body shook, and if it wasn't for the support of the bronze sword, he would have fallen to the ground.
Ji Youyue sighed softly and said, "Let's help him." ”
I nodded, stepped forward, and silently helped Shi Qi dig a grave, and helped him put Gongzi Sheng's body into the earth pit and bury it with dirt and rubble.
Shi Qi knelt in front of Gongzi Sheng's grave and knocked his head three times with tears in his eyes: "Lord...... I can't keep a watch for you......" He staggered to his feet and said to me gratefully, "Thank you for your help, and I hope that the princess will not reveal it to others." ”
"Don't worry, I won't say it."
Shi Qi pursed his lips and said: "Great kindness is not thanks, the son's kindness today Shi Qi can only be repaid in the next life." ”
After we parted ways with Shi Qi, we found out that the ox cart had also been taken by the rebels. We could only march to the border of Chu on foot, but we didn't go too far but encountered an army, and before we could dodge, we were stopped by them, and the first black-armored general shouted: "Who are you? ”
I calmly responded: "We are merchants of the Cai State, and we encountered a rebellion through the Chu State, and now the things have also been robbed by the rebel army. ”
The general looked me up and down and whispered, "Rebels? He pointed to Ji Youyue and Qi Yan again, "Who are they?" ”
"It's the grass people's wife!"
The general turned his horse and walked towards the middle of the group, and I thought I would be able to get past it, but I heard him say coldly: "Bring them here!" ”
Several soldiers escorted us to the ranks, and to my surprise, Shi Qi was also caught by them, and the whole person was tied up there.
The general said loudly: "You can see clearly, is he among the rebels you just met?" ”
I shook my head and said flatly, "I've never seen this person before!" ”
The general nodded slowly and said, "I really haven't seen it?" ”
I smiled indifferently and said, "Does the general still think that I will deceive you?" ”
At this time, the dust was flying in the distance, and the flag was waving, but it was another large group of people and horses who arrived, and there was a big leaf word fluttering on the flag, and I secretly wondered in my heart: "Could it be that Ye Gong has arrived?" ”
The general pressed the bronze sword against Shi Qi's throat and said, "Hurry up and explain!" Where the hell is Childe Katsu? ”
Shi Qi's face did not show any panic, and he said indifferently: "The lord has committed suicide!" ”
"Where is the body?"
"It's already buried!"
"Where are you buried?"
Shi Qi laughed and said, "People are dead, and you still ask him what he did?" ”
The general said angrily: "The corpse of the rebellious minister has to be beheaded for public display, how can you bury him casually? Say it! ”
Shi Qi said calmly: "I won't say! ”
No matter what the general asked, Shi Qi always closed his eyes, pretended to be deaf and dumb and ignored him.
After a while, someone reported: "General, Ye Gong is here!" ”
I was also shocked in my heart, I didn't expect Ye Gong to chase after me in person.
The three of us are now besieged by Ye Gong's soldiers, and we can only act at the opportunity, and we will not be able to get out smoothly in a short time.
The three military vehicles slowly stopped in front of us under the escort of more than 20 horsemen, and a young general in bronze armor jumped off his mount, and it was Zi Ning, the son of Yin Zixi, the commander of the Chu State, Zi Ning's eyes were red, and his beard under his chin had not been trimmed for many days.
He stared at Shi Qi with murderous eyes, rushed up suddenly, raised his foot and kicked Shi Qi's lower abdomen, kicked Shi Qi to the ground, Shi Qi opened his eyes, his mouth was full of blood, but his face still did not show half of fear, and he smiled: "It turns out that you are still alive......"
Zi Ning kicked him in the lower abdomen again, Shi Qi bent his whole body in pain, he coughed twice, spit out a mouthful of blood, and his chest rose and fell violently: "Shi can be killed but not humiliated, I will be defeated with the lord's army, and I will never complain, if you want to kill, you can kill, you don't have to humiliate me like this......"
I also feel that Zining's behavior is a bit excessive, but because of the delicate situation, I naturally dare not come forward to help.
Zi Ning gritted his teeth and said, "You beast, you are so cruel to my father!" ”
Shi Qi smiled and said, "How I treat him, you can use ten times more cruel means against me!" ”
"You don't deserve it! Tell me the whereabouts of Childe Sheng, and I can leave you a whole corpse! ”
"I told you, the lord is dead!"
Zi Ning nodded hatefully, and he said loudly: "Hold up the cauldron for me!" ”
Several soldiers set up a huge iron pot in the open space in the middle, lit wood underneath, filled the pot with cold water, and soon the water in the cauldron began to boil.
Zi Ning sneered: "Shi Qi, if you don't talk about Gongzi Sheng's whereabouts, I will put you into this cauldron and cook it!" ”
Shi Qi staggered to his feet, smiled, glanced at me meaningfully, and then slowly walked towards the cauldron: "I don't know how my Shi Qi's meat tastes?" He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and jumped into the iron pot without hesitation.
Ji Youyue and Qi Yan exclaimed at the same time, and even I couldn't help but close my eyes, I couldn't bear to see the miserable scene in front of me.
Zi Ning didn't expect Shi Qi to be so bold, and when everyone fished Shi Qi out of the cauldron, Shi Qi was already breathing.
Zi Ning roared angrily: "Chop him up for me and feed it to the dog!" ”
A deep voice in the chariot sighed: "Forget it, although Shi Qi is a traitor, he can be regarded as a loyal martyr to Gongzi, everyone else is dead, we can't continue to insult him!" ”
The car door slowly opened, and a tall middle-aged man walked out of the car, his thick eyebrows and big eyes, his ears and shoulders drooped, and he raised his hand to reveal a domineering spirit.
Although Zi Ning hated Shi Qi, he didn't dare to go against Ye Gong's will, Ye Gong waved his hand and asked the soldiers to bury Shi Qi's body on the spot, and looked at me.
Zi Ning's eyes fell on Ji and Yue, just now Ji and Yue and Qi Yan saw the scene of Shi Qi's tragic death, and exclaimed, which had already made Zi Ning notice the two of them, and the two girls were afraid of being recognized by Zi Ning, so they all lowered their heads.
Zi Ning said in a low voice: "You are not ......" He strode to Ji Youyue's side, stretched out his hand to grab her hair bun, I grabbed his wrist, and looked at Zi Ning coldly: "General, we are just passers-by fleeing for our lives, why are you aggressive?" ”
Zining's pupils contracted suddenly, he obviously recognized Ji and Yue, looked at Ji and Yue, looked at me again, and said in a low voice: "You are so bold!" ”
I said calmly: "The grass people ask themselves if they are not the general's opponents, but in order to protect their families, they will fight to the death!" ”
A mysterious smile appeared at the corner of Zining's lips: "Okay...... Good ......"
I let go of his wrist, and Zi Ning flipped over and got on the horse.
I thought that things could be confused, but I saw Ye Gong in the car lift the curtain up: "Give them a car and let them go with us!" ”
Ji and Yue whispered in my ear, "He seems to recognize me." ”
I secretly complained, this time it was very troublesome, and I wanted to escape from Ye Gong's side, but I was afraid that it would be difficult to reach the sky.
This Ye Gong did not make it difficult for us, and the soldiers who accompanied us in the carriage were also very polite to us, followed them back and marched eastward, and when we camped that night, they also arranged a camp tent for us.
When Ji and Yue and I were discussing how to escape, a soldier came over and asked us to go to Ye Gong's.
When I entered Ye Gong's tent, I saw that Ye Gong was the only one in the tent, and my nervous mood with Ji and Yue relaxed a little, and I even had the idea of kidnapping Ye Gong and escaping.
Ye Gong said with a kind expression: "Sit!" ”
Ji and Yue and I knelt opposite Ye Gong, and Ji and Yue's eyes were always lowered, and they didn't dare to look at Ye Gong.
Ye Gong looked at me with a smile and said, "Do you want to kidnap me and escape from this military camp with me as a hostage?" ”
I was said to be thoughtful, my face was hot, but fortunately, I couldn't see any change in my expression with a human skin mask: "Ye Gong is too worried!" ”
Ye Gongdao: "I once promised my ancestor that unless the state of Chu is in trouble, I will not enter the city of Yingdu. ”
I whispered, "Ye Gong is worried that others will have other ideas?" ”
Ye Gong smiled and said, "Your brain is really bright!" ”
From his words, I could hear that he seemed to know my identity, and I was curious: "Ye Gong recognizes me?" ”
Ye Gong said in a low voice: "Gongzi Sheng is dead, the king has reascended the throne, and my mission in Yingdu has ended." He paused and said, "Win mercy is my righteous daughter!" ”
Only then did I understand why Ye Gong had left us in the barracks.
Ye Gongdao: "Ying Lian specially sent someone to deliver the letter a few days ago, so that I could pay attention to her whereabouts, and by the way, help her protect her husband, who is merciful everywhere......"
I coughed embarrassedly, Ying Lian really knew me very well, and knew that when I heard the news of the civil unrest in Chu, I would definitely go to the palace to save Ji and Yue at all costs, so I greeted Ye Gong in advance.
