Chapter 66: Cross-examination

Smelling the faint smell of herbs, Lu Chengkong suddenly opened his eyes and sat up suddenly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Where am I?" He didn't react for a while, thinking that he was still in a cold, foul-smelling prison camp. Lu Chengkong looked around, the room was neat and bright, he was lying on the wooden bed, covered with a soft linen robe, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "This is the military tent of the Tang Dynasty...... I was saved. ”

Looking at everything he was familiar with, Lu Chengkong still couldn't believe it, shook his head vigorously, and thought to himself: "Is this a dream?" The ground in front of him was covered with withered grass, and he couldn't help but think of Liu Shi and Xu Li wiping Tang knives in the barracks, as if they were right in front of him...... And also...... And Pang An!

Lu Chengkong seemed to recall everything, hurriedly lifted the quilt, and just jumped out of bed, how did he know that when he touched the ground, his left leg couldn't be strengthened, "Ah......" He fell to the ground. Looking down, I saw that my left foot was tied with herbs, and the tearing pain went straight to my chest, and I couldn't help but scream.

"Wake up...... Wake up! Lu Liang rushed in from outside the tent, quickly helped Lu Chengkong to sit on the bed, and said, "Your left foot is broken, don't move!" ”

Lu Chengkong saw Lu Liang's haggard face, and said secretly: "It turns out ...... It turns out that this is not a dream! He just bowed his head silently and didn't speak.

"Xu Li told us all last night." Lu Liang said with a frown.

After Pang Zhengkuan heard the news of Pang An's death, he suddenly aged ten years old overnight, and today he followed Xu Li to find the cave where Pang An's body was placed, but the cave was damp, and the bodies of several people had already decomposed, and he couldn't tell which one was Pang An. Pang Zhengkuan didn't say a word until now, only sighed constantly.

"How is Brother Xu?" Lu Chengkong asked.

"I can't keep my left hand."

After a while, Lu Chengkong asked with a dull look in his eyes, "Let's ...... Did we win? ”

Lu Liang nodded, "General Dai captured Cui Xiliang alive yesterday. ”

"Oh." Lu Chengkong listened to the victory at this time, and he was also rescued, but he couldn't be happy, so he lowered his head again and was silent.

Where did Lu Liang think that Lu Chengkong would sneak into the battlefield? At this time, he should study the sages in the four schools and prepare to enter Beijing to take next year's imperial examination. After listening to Xu Li's statement yesterday, he was immediately angry, but seeing that his son only had half a life left, he couldn't bear to reprimand him again.

"Rest well, and we'll be home in a few days." Lu Liang patted Lu Chengkong's shoulder, and pretended to be relaxed.

"Back to ...... Go home? Lu Chengkong thought of the warm bed at home, he didn't worry about eating or drinking all day long, and he could go to the teahouse to listen to the stories when he had nothing to do, and he was touched for a while.

After such a big disaster, Lu Chengkong originally thought that Lu Liang would punish him, but he didn't expect Lu Liang to just touch his head and say, "Silly boy, it's okay...... Everything is fine. As long as you can come back, everything is fine. Sleep, don't think about it anymore. ”

It was the first time that Lu Chengkong was touched by a strange man's head, and at this moment, listening to Lu Liang's thick voice, he didn't even have a trace of resistance.

As soon as Lu Liang's words fell, Lu Chengkong closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

When he woke up, it was the evening of the second day, and Lu Chengkong's stomach was grumbling with hunger. Lu Liang brought a large bowl of white rice, with only a few slices of dried meat and vegetables on top of the rice. But Lu Chengkong tasted extremely delicious, and ate the whole bowl of rice in a few big bites, and Lu Liang smiled with relief on the side.

"Uncle Pang, what's wrong with him?" Lu Chengkong always thought that he had killed Pang An, and after holding it for two days, he finally asked.

"Hey......" Lu Liang sighed and said, "He is still looking for Pang An's body in that cave. Although it was winter, the cave was damp and full of miasma, and the corpses were decomposed beyond recognition...... I can't tell which one is Pang An. Even so, your Uncle Pang insisted on taking all the corpses to the county for burial. ”

"I put Pang An on the left......" Lu Chengkong clenched his fists and said anxiously: "No, no, it's leaning against the entrance of the cave......" said, closed his eyes and tried to recall, and after a while, he was full of self-blame: "That **** only cares about revenge, and he doesn't remember where he put Pang An in the cave...... Pang An ......, "Lu Chengkong's self-blame in his heart is a little more.

Suddenly, the group walked into the camp, and the leader was Zhuang Mu, the captain of the Yingxian Military Government, only to see him look at Lu Chengkong, and asked with a serious expression: "Lu Liang, this person is your son?" ”

Lu Liang stood up, bowed and said, "Captain Huizhuang is a dog." ”

"Okay, you can follow me to see General Dai." Zhuang Mu stared at the two thoughtfully.

"This?" Lu Liang saw that Zhuang Mu wanted to speak and stopped, full of doubts, and asked, "What does Captain Zhuang know?" ”

Zhuang Mu sighed and said helplessly: "Let's go, you'll know when you go." ”

Lu Liang has been under Zhuang Mu's subordinates since he entered the military palace, and the two have been friends for more than ten years, and the relationship is extremely harmonious on weekdays. Seeing Zhuang Mu's unsmiling appearance today, he thought: "I don't know General Dai either, why do you want to see yourself by name, is it because of Chengkong?" Maybe it's to investigate Chengkong going to the battlefield without permission, if so, it shouldn't be a big deal, there are not a few people in the military camp who know their father and son, just explain. ”

Lu Chengkong was also confused, he was inconvenient to walk, so he had to be carried by Lu Liang. As soon as the two walked out of the tent, the people behind Zhuang Mu surrounded them and watched the two of them closely.

Lu Liang felt that these people were not from the military government, and the murderous aura exuded from their bodies should be Sergeant Yulin, so he immediately stopped and asked puzzledly: "Captain Zhuang, what does this mean?" ”

Zhuang Mu waved his hand and asked these people to retreat behind him, but he didn't answer Lu Liang, and said to these people: "With me here, they can't escape, if something happens, bear it in the next force!" Turning his head, he said to Lu Liang as usual: "Come on, follow me." ”

Seeing that the people behind him were staring at him, Lu Liang's father and son had no choice but to follow Zhuang Mu closely, and walked towards the Chinese army camp, and suddenly felt ominous in their hearts.

After a while, the group came to the tent of the Chinese army. After Zhuang Mu said a few words to the guards in front of the camp, he turned around and asked Lu Liang and Lu Chengkong to follow him into the camp tent, while the rest of the people waited outside the door.

The realm of Lingzhou has been overcast and drizzled since last night, which makes people feel cold. As soon as Zhuang Mu and the three of them stepped into the camp of the Chinese army, they saw a big furnace fire in the tent, and the charcoal in the furnace was burning red, Lu Chengkong was only wearing Lu Liang's coat, and he was so cold that he shrank his hands and feet when he walked on the road, and when he stood in the tent, his ears were immediately hot and red.

"General Dai, someone brought it." Zhuang Mu said respectfully to the head of the tent.

Lu Chengkong followed the prestige, only to see this person in civilian clothes, looking at himself thoughtfully. Although he sat lazily in his chair, he looked majestic.

Lu Liang whispered to Lu Chengkong: "I've seen General Dai soon!" He hurriedly pulled him forward two steps, clasped his hands and saluted, and said, "The villain Lu Liang has seen General Dai. ”

Lu Chengkong also bowed according to Lu Liang's appearance, and said, "The villain Lu Chengkong has seen General Dai. But in his heart, he was secretly thinking, "I see...... It turns out that the real general is such a majestic style. ”

There were still more than a dozen generals standing in the camp, and Lu Chengkong also knew Ao Hong and Luo Tian, but when he saw the person behind Luo Tian clearly, his expression became cold, and he had already clenched his fists.

That person was Luo Xiuyuan, he was wearing a military uniform, holding his head high, looking at the down-and-out Lu Chengkong with a gloating smile on his face.

"Lu Liang, this person is your son?" Ao Hong asked stiffly.

"Captain Hui Aodu, it's the dog." Lu Liang turned to Ao Hong and replied.

Ao Hong nodded and asked Lu Chengkong, "What's your name?" ”

"Lord Hui Ao, the villain's name is Lu Chengkong." Lu Chengkong no longer looked at Luo Xiuyuan, and was respectful to Dai Quan.

"Good!" Ao Hong turned to the person behind him and bowed his head and said a few words, and the person immediately flipped through the paperwork in his hand.

No one in the tent spoke, only listening to the sound of the man constantly flipping through the book.
