Chapter 79: The Eve of the Execution
When I received Tian Ji's letter, it was already the middle of the night.
When Xiao Fang handed me the dirty, tattered, and miserable envelope, I was going crazy.
"You, what the hell are you doing?"
Xiao Fang tilted his head and thought for a while: "I played with a few kittens, and then ate something......"
I said with a look of disbelief, "Do you still want the magic core?" ”
Xiao Fang pouted: "Now you seem to lack trust in me......"
"I'm going to be beheaded tomorrow, can I be in a good mood?"
"Okay." Xiao Fang finally honestly explained what he had done in the morning.
I was dumbfounded: "You mean, in the afternoon, you brought a bunch of cats around to fight?" In the end, you went to someone's kitchen to steal food? Oh my God, where is your dignity as a former great demon? ”
Xiao Fang also felt a little embarrassed: "Isn't it boring, just have fun." Aren't you in a hurry to read the letter, though? Why are you bothering about my business? ”
"That's right." With a look of disgust, I quickly threw away the miserable envelope and took out the letter.
There are not many words on it, only the words: "I will live up to the trust of my son." ”
I breathed a sigh of relief.
Everything that needs to be done has been done, and tomorrow, it will be up to God.
Later, when everyone else was resting, I asked Xiao Fang to help and secretly came to the cell where Ke and Miyamoto were.
None of them rested, but Ah Ke and Miyamoto sat in two corners separately, not only did they not rest, but they were a little angry.
"What's wrong with you? I'm going to be beheaded tomorrow! ”
Pan Shun, another person in the room, didn't sleep either, and he said helplessly: "They were just discussing who would die first." ”
I ...... "How did they discuss it?" ”
As a result, Pan Shun began to restore his mind vividly.
Let's turn the clock back to an hour ago.
Ah Ke looked at the leisurely Miyamoto, and came out angrily: "I said Miyamoto, you will be killed tomorrow, why are you not afraid at all?" ”
Miyamoto touched his stubble: "Why are you afraid?" I've hacked so many people to death, and I haven't tasted it like to be hacked. ”
Ah Ke thought for a while: "It seems that I haven't been cut either." You say, which of us will be cut down first tomorrow? ”
"Definitely four me. I'm a foreigner. ”
"No, it's me! Because ladies come first! ”
"No, I'll beg for a drink, and then let them cut me down quickly."
"Then I'll threaten them and cut me first."
Miyamoto thought for a moment: "Then I'll scatter a few people first, and then they will all come and cut me." ”
"Humph! If I kill the Lord, they will surely cut me first. ”
"It's a pity that you're not as fast as me!"
"You...... Hum! Then Ke sulked on the side.
After listening to this, I was even more speechless: "Ah Ke, isn't your goal to assassinate King Qin?" How can you die here? ”
Then I turned to Miyamoto and said, "Miyamoto Musashi, aren't you looking for Li Bai from Chang'an to fight alone?" And is there a commission to do? How can it fall here? ”
Ah Ke turned his head and looked at me, as if he was even more angry: "Originally, I should have gone to assassinate King Qin smoothly." Maybe now you're already traveling all over the world. But I was blinded by lard, believed you, and became a cashier! I really regret that the last master of my dignified Jing clan has been reduced to giving you money! ”
I immediately said with disdain: "Who secretly took several gold coins every day?" ”
"That's the salary you paid me! I deserve it! Ah Ke's face was not red, his heart was not beating, and he gave full play to the shamelessness of an assassin.
Miyamoto also said: "Fourth, I have inquired clearly, here are the four Qin countries, not Chang'an." I have also been blinded by four lards, and I have been beaten into mustard by your two bottles of wine. ”
"Heh, then why don't you leave?"
Miyamoto scratched his head and smiled: "The four good wines are a little unpleasant." ”
"Alright, no kidding you guys. Come here, listen, that's it, that's it. Well, here's my plan for tomorrow's execution. Whether we can succeed or not, whether we can keep our Da Pan Ji people, it depends on the two of us. ”
Ah Ke nodded and looked at Miyamoto's wound: "Of course it's good to be alive." But it's a bit more difficult to plan. Of course, I don't think there's a problem. I just don't know if the person with a strange accent on the other side can't do it. ”
Miyamoto moved his hand, tore off the gauze, and moved his hands and feet: "No problem." It's been a long time since I've moved my muscles. ”
Ah Ke said unhappily again: "Heh, I'm afraid that when the time comes, someone will not be able to do it, and we will be beheaded." ”
Miyamoto touched his stubble: "Impossible." ”
"Why? Where do you get your confidence? Ah Ke provoked again.
Then I saw Miyamoto looking up at the sky at forty-five degrees, and said slowly: "Too invincible to find an opponent is also a kind of invincible sorrow." ”
Ke immediately rolled his eyes, yawned, and prepared to rest.
Seeing how motivated they are, I was relieved.
With Xiao Fang's help, I returned to my cell again.
When he was about to lie down to sleep, Gou Jian said quietly: "Boss, I know that you are not an ordinary person. I wonder, tomorrow, will we die? ”
In the darkness, I felt countless pairs of eyes looking at me.
I said in a deep voice, "Since you have chosen to follow me, and because of me, I have this prison, and I will ensure everyone's safety even if I die!" So, rest assured, everyone will be fine! ”
In the dark, I sensed a lot of people breathing a sigh of relief.
When I was sleeping, Xiao Fang nestled beside me and meowed, "Are you really sure?" ”
I closed my eyes and said, "It is up to man to plan and heaven to do things." I've done everything I need to do, and I can only see tomorrow's luck. By the way, if we all die, you'll have to run far. ”
"Why?"
"What if they abuse the cat and cut you down?"
Xiao Fang paused for a moment before saying, "Cut, I think I could escape in that situation back then." What else in the world can trap me? I don't have to worry about it, I'd better worry about yourself. ”
"Alas, I don't know how far Tian Ji has come."
Rewind the time back to when Xiao Fang left Tian Ji.
After Tian Ji sent Xiao Fang away, he immediately sent someone to buy a gold-inlaid envelope that was very valuable at first glance. Then he very cherished the autographed letter written by Zhuang Gong to the King of Qin and put it in an envelope. Then, he immediately went out, rode the fast meteor horse dedicated to the interior, and went straight to the palace of King Qin.
When he came to the gate of the palace, he was naturally stopped.
"Who's coming?" The guard asked.
Tian Ji hurriedly said: "I am Tian Ji, vice president of the Xianyang Branch of the Kamikaze Leasing Company, and here is a letter from the monarch of the Lu State, which I specially sent to invite the King of Qin to take a look." ”
The guard looked at Tian Ji, then at the valuable envelope, and was already half convinced in his heart: "Okay!" I can send someone to report it. ”
Soon, another guard ran into the palace.
After more than ten minutes, when Tian Ji was restless, the guard finally came out and shouted: "King Qin is invited, Xuantian Ji is here." ”
Then he whispered, "Please dismount President Tian." Riding is forbidden in the palace. ”
Tian Ji hurriedly dismounted and followed another guard into the palace.
At this moment, it was getting late, and Tian Ji didn't see the buildings here. However, the guard was extremely familiar with the terrain here, and took Tian Ji around and around before finally arriving at a huge palace with bright lights.
After arriving here, the guards retreated. He trotted back to his original post.
An inner eunuch was already waiting aside, and when he saw Tian Ji coming, he immediately stretched out his hands respectfully: "Please President Tian hand over the letter of Lu Guoguo to me." ”
Although Tian Ji also wanted to see the honor of King Qin, he had no choice but to hand over the national credentials and began a long wait.
The eunuch turned and trotted into the palace.
Tian Ji thought it would be soon, but he waited for half an hour before he saw the eunuch again.
Tian Ji hurriedly greeted him: "What did the king say?" ”
"The king said," he paused, "and go back." ”
"Huh?" Tian Ji said that he was a little inexplicable.
