(a)

You endure the pain of two wounds, breathe well, and try to sit up straight.

You say, "Bring them in." ”

You look at two soaking wet enemy captives. Say, "Take the strip of cloth off their eyes." ”

You look at the two captives and say to Wu Shun, "Tell them what I said in the words of the Begi people." ”

You say, "Introduce yourself." I'm the commander of the Han army here. You chased after it for a long time the night before yesterday, but you couldn't catch it. Now, you are my captives. Be ye aware of your situation. ”

You say, "Look at something." Do you see this iron rod burning on fire? This is a torture instrument of the Han people in ancient times. When it was red, it was inserted from the victim's mouth, and the whole root was submerged into the body, piercing all the internal organs one by one, and sticking out of the anus. This punishment was very popular when the most tyrannical monarchs of antiquity ruled the world. It is specially used to deal with enemies who have a grudge against the clan. In general, no one can survive until this iron rod is stretched out. ”

You say, "You have killed so many people in our town, and you are already very entitled to this punishment." ”

You say, "If you don't want to accept this punishment, it's easy." Just answer a few of my questions truthfully. However, the two of you will be separated and answer separately in two separate places. If neither of you answers, both of you will be put to death in this way to pay for the blood you owe the night before, and then we will go and take another captive. If one of them answers and the other does not, the one who does not answer will be put to death in this way, and the person who answers will not be mistreated. If both of you are willing to answer, but the answer is different, I will put one of you to death like this. If the answer is the same, I'm going to lock you all up and not abuse you. When the battle is over, I'll let you go. I do what I say. ”

You say, "You can choose to believe me or not." ”

You say, "This rod has been burning for a while, and it will be red in about a quarter of an hour." Before that, think for yourselves. I'll take your pick. ”

You say, "Do you understand?" ”

You say to the left and right, "Now, take this one away and leave the other one behind." ”

There is only one captive left in front of you.

You say, "Okay, would you like to answer the question?" ”

"Tell me, behind you, are there any Begi troops marching south?"

(b)

After a quarter of an hour, you know everything you want to know.

"If they wouldn't say it, would you really do that to them?" I asked with trepidation.

You say, "I will." ”

I was taken aback and said, "I thought you were just scaring them." ”

Say, "Sometimes, a woman's kindness kills more people." ”

(c)

"Qin'er, there's something I want to tell you first. From now on, we are already at war. You'll see me kill people in a row, you'll see me kill a lot of people. I'm going to turn into someone you never thought of, say, a demon. You have to be mentally prepared. Don't be bitter about it. "You say.

I looked at you, and I said, "If that's the case, the most painful person will be you." ”
