General Qiu's eyes were like knives, and he said coldly: "You are a spy!" ”

"Spies?" Mr. Hei was still calm and composed, and said with a smile: "General, some jokes can't be made, when did I become a spy again?" ”

"Of course, you won't forget that you were the first to discover the loophole in Fu Gang's words, and it was also your suggestion that Ben would be calculated." General Qiu sneered: "Your arrangement, it is best to follow Chu Huan's thoughts. ”

Mr. Hei put down the porcelain bowl and sighed: "Why does the general say this, even if I don't say it, won't the general notice the flaw in Fu Gang's words?" Even if there is no me, the general will know Chu Huansheng's plan to attack the east and west from Fu Gang's mouth, and he will also ambush the sunset village with heavy troops...... The general does not have to deny this. ”

General Qiu sneered: "So, you are not responsible? ”

"Of course there is responsibility." Mr. Hei smiled bitterly: "My mistake is to think too much about the general, who knew that Chu Huan was even more treacherous than we imagined, we were ready to plan everything, but who knew that he had already laid everything out...... My mistake was that I failed to discover Chu Huan's true thoughts. ”

General Qiu said lightly: "At the beginning, you went up the mountain and brought rich gifts, claiming to help the general achieve great things, but to this day, you have never explained your origin. ”

"General, think about it yourself, is there any disadvantage to you if you go up the mountain from me?" Mr. Hei said calmly: "Although I have not done great things, I have never harmed the general, and the general really does not need to doubt me." ”

"But Ben today wants to know where you really came from." General Qiu's hand holding the knife was steady and powerful, "Chu Huan came from the capital to take up his post, it was you who claimed that after assassinating him, Xiguan would be more chaotic, and our chances would be greater, do you have any personal enmity with Chu Huan?" ”

Mr. Hei smiled: "Doesn't the general think that I have already anticipated the situation? If the assassination was successful, how could Huluzhai have today's results? If it weren't for Chu Huan, today's Xiguan would still be a mess of scattered sand, Dongfang Xin's group of people were short-sighted, selfish, and couldn't make a big deal, compared to Chu Huan, wouldn't it be much more beneficial for us to control Xiguan? He sighed lightly: "Not killing Chu Huan is my biggest failure, otherwise the current situation in Xiguan will definitely be a different scene." ”

General Qiu said mockingly: "In this way, you still think you are very capable? ”

Mr. Hei said, "The general made fun of it. The general should be thinking about what to do next, not interrogating me here. ”

"Where do we go from here?" General Qiu still didn't put away his sword, "Since you have a clever plan, then in your opinion, what should you do next?" ”

"According to common sense, of course the general can go to Tianshan Dao." Mr. Hei smiled faintly: "Zhu Lingyue has always shown favor to the general, and provided the general with a lot of weapons and baggage, his purpose is, of course, to wait until the day of the incident, so that more forces will obey his dispatch." ”

"So you know all of this."

Mr. Hei said: "I don't know much. ”

"This matter has always been carried out in secret, and even Dongfang Xin's group of people don't know that Ben will have a connection with Zhu Lingyue." General Qiu said slowly.

Mr. Hei said with a smile: "Zhu Lingyue is really careful in his work, the weapons and baggage he provided to the general were not directly handed over to the general, but those materials were deliberately transferred...... All this, of course, is a great gift that Zhu Lingyue agreed with the general in advance and gave to the general. ”

"Mr. Black, you're smarter than Ben thought." General Qiu smiled: "It turns out that you have already seen this. ”

"Actually, I didn't see it at first." Mr. Hei shook his head and said, "But Zhu Lingyue's handling of this matter afterwards surprised me. That batch of materials, not a few, Hulu Mountain is located at the junction of Shazhou and Yuezhou, although in Xiguan, there is a threat to Xiguan, but there is also a threat to Shazhou, these materials are obtained by Huluzhai, it is bound to be a greater threat to Shazhou, this, Zhu Lingyue can not understand. ”

"You're right, Zhu Lingyue is a smart person, of course he knows this."

Mr. Hei sighed: "It stands to reason that the equipment and materials that can equip thousands of soldiers and horses were snatched up by Huluzhai, Zhu Lingyue can't turn a blind eye, this batch of materials, even in his hands, is a very heavy weight." ”

"In fact, Zhu Lingyue is not generous, and his money, food and equipment are only dominant in the northwest." General Qiu smiled faintly and said: "There are many heroes and strongmen in the pass. ”

"But after the incident, Zhu Lingyue's side was only thundering and raining, and posted a bounty list to recover the materials, but he didn't take any substantive action." Mr. Hei said: "Of course, this is not Zhu Lingyue's character, so from that time, I felt that something was wrong. ”

General Qiu stared at Mr. Hei condescendingly, "He wants me to use it for him, of course I have to pay a certain price, and if the price paid is enough, I can't cooperate with him." ”

Mr. Hei nodded and said, "That's what the general said. In fact, although the general is brave, but he is not a reckless person, at that time Zhu Lingyue's forces were all over the northwest, if it was not for the fact that the general and Zhu Lingyue had a secret agreement, with the general's reason, it would be impossible to rob Zhu Lingyue's materials, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. ”

General Qiu sighed: "What you said is right, if it weren't for Zhu Lingyue's big gift, the general would not dare to do it to him easily, if there are still people in the northwest who the general is afraid of, there is only Zhu Lingyue." ”

Mr. Hei said with a smile: "So the general's current plan must be to hide for the time being, wait until the officers and soldiers calm down, and then go to Shazhou and defect to Zhu Lingyue." ”

"Ben doesn't seem to have any other path to follow."

Mr. Hei raised his head slightly, didn't care about the cold knife in his throat, stared into General Qiu's eyes, and asked, "Has the general ever thought that going to Tianshan is a blessing or a curse?" ”

"Didn't Mr. Hei have a clever plan in advance?" General Qiu joked: "You can calculate for the general now, is it a blessing or a curse to go to Tianshan?" ”

"Actually, on the way, I have already calculated for the general." Mr. Hei sighed: "The general is willing to listen to the truth? ”

"I don't need you to talk nonsense."

"If my calculation is correct, the general will go to the Tianshan Mountains, and there will be a disaster of blood and light." Mr. Hei said solemnly.

General Qiu smiled: "Mr. Hei, did you really do a fortune teller in the past?" ”

"Although I haven't been a fortune teller, Zhu Lingyue's mind can guess one or two." Mr. Hei said: "Zhu Lingyue won over the general, the reason is very simple, just because the general has thousands of outlaws, they follow the general's orders, although they seem to be a rabble, but with weapons and equipment, and then trained by the general, over time, it is also a force to be reckoned with." ”

At this time, some subordinates arrived at the door, wanting to tell General Qiu that the meal was ready, and when he saw General Qiu's cold knife on Mr. Hei's neck, he was taken aback, and immediately drew his knife and was about to come forward to help, but General Qiu didn't look at it, just raised his hand and said: "Go down, no one should come in without the general's orders." ”

The man hurriedly retreated, looking dazed, not knowing what had happened.

"But now, the general has only more than ten horsemen, and the great gift that Zhu Lingyue gave to the general is now all taken by Chu Huan, and the general should know that Chu Huan is a thorn in Zhu Lingyue's eye, do you think Zhu Lingyue will give up?" Seeing the bandits leaving, Mr. Hei said slowly: "Zhu Lingyue's character, the general must also know it, he is dignified, ruthless, and kind, everyone thinks that he regards himself as a friend, but he is ruthless, and there is no one he dare not kill." ”

General Qiu finally slowly withdrew his sword, "Do you think that Ben will defect to him, and he will kill me?" ”

"He takes a fancy to the general, just because there are people under the general's command, and now that the general is defeated, does the general think he will still take a fancy to you?" Mr. Hei shook his head and said, "There is not much that the general can use for him now. ”

General Qiu sneered: "Could it be that the general can't be used by him?" He has ambitions to dominate the northwest, Chu Huan in the north, and Xiao Huanzhang in the south, he would have charged into battle for him, so couldn't he have a place? ”

"That's what the general said." Mr. Hei immediately said: "With the general's bravery and ability, the world can go to it, and if you are willing to serve your life, everyone wants it." ”

"That being the case, why did Zhu Lingyue kill me?"

Mr. Hei sighed: "It's just because the general is too big for the public, and the general is from Hulu Village." ”

General Qiu sat down next to Mr. Hei and stared into Mr. Hei's eyes, "What do you mean by that?" ”

"The generals around Zhu Lingyue have followed him for many years, this person is suspicious, and almost all of the people he uses are his cronies, even so, he is also careful of the people around him." Mr. Hei said slowly: "The general feels that he will not even trust his cronies who have followed him for many years, how can he trust the general, and how can he entrust the general with important tasks?" Moreover, Zhu Lingyue's side has become a family of its own, if the general wants to make a difference under Zhu Lingyue, he must integrate into it, but if he wants to integrate into the system around him, does the general think it is possible? ”

General Qiu let out an "oh" and asked rhetorically, "Why is it impossible?" ”

"The reason is very simple, the generals around Zhu Lingyue, their backgrounds are either from the Tianshan clan, or they have accumulated military exploits under Zhu Lingyue, and they have climbed up step by step." Mr. Hei said: "That's the case, the generals under Zhu Lingyue are also divided into two factions, one is those generals from families, and the other is like Dongfang Xin, who was born poor, but he rose up by military merits...... These two factions are incompatible, intrigued, and do not blend with each other, how can the general fit in? Although the general is brave, in their eyes, he is just an outsider, even if Zhu Lingyue wants to use the general, there are those people who resist, Zhu Lingyue has to think about it. ”

General Qiu sneered: "Even so, there is no need for Zhu Lingyue to kill the general, right?" ”

"With all due respect, in Zhu Lingyue's eyes, the general is a sinner, and he can neither reward nor use it...... But if a talent like a general is not used by him, does the general think that he will keep it and be used by others? Mr. Hei was calm: "If you use people for yourself, you will not let them be used by others, and you will not let them be used by others, and ...... Zhu Lingyue has always been sanctimonious, buying people's hearts, the general is from Hulu Village, if the general defects to him, this identity is difficult to hide after all, and it will be known by others......! ”

General Qiu's eyes were like blades, and he said coldly: "You mean, Zhu Lingyue will dislike the general's bad background, and he is afraid that the general's identity will be known to others, and he will ruin his reputation if he uses a mountain bandit as a general?" ”

"General, the words are not rough, forgive me for taking the liberty, in his opinion, this is the truth." Mr. Hei said bluntly: "If the general is in his hands, he may not use the general to buy the hearts of the people...... Killing General Qiu in Hulu Village must be able to boost his prestige! ”

"Mr. Hei, you are so bold." General Qiu said sharply: "Do you want to die? The blade flickered, and the blade was pointed at Mr. Black's throat once more.

Mr. Hei was not afraid, he actually raised his hand, gently brushed the blade away, and said with a smile: "The general has to admit that what I said is not unreasonable, if I don't treat the general sincerely, why should I tell the general bluntly and make the general angry?" ”

General Qiu suddenly laughed and said, "Mr. Hei, what you said is right, Ben will defect to Zhu Lingyue, and there will be no good end......!" His eyes sharpened, "It's just that Ben will be very strange, why do you know so much about Zhu Lingyue's situation?" Who the hell are you? ”

Mr. Hei stared at General Qiu, and after a moment, he said slowly: "The sun is empty, the moon is invisible, and the five elements are ...... the world!" ”
