Chapter 148: Monsters

Xu Anmo, the governor of the Qingli Army, was hunted down on the third day. When the news came, Mei Changsu was sitting face-to-face with King Jing to discuss the follow-up matters after returning to Beijing, and the two of them were very happy after hearing the news.

"Xu Anmo should be detained in solitary confinement, don't beat and scold, let him return to the capital alive." King Jing then commanded.

"Yes!" Lie Zhanying couldn't hold his fist with one arm hanging, bowed and said, "The people who guard him in shifts are all from our Jingwang Mansion, rest assured." ”

"Did he say anything?" Mei Changsu asked.

"He was shouting all the way and saying that he had been deceived by the Honor King."

"It seems that he doesn't plan to sacrifice himself to save King Yu," Mei Changsu couldn't help but smile, "King Yu and Xia Jiang have gone to a dead end on their own, it's really no wonder that others." However, the queen still has to bother the concubine to intercede for her. It's not appropriate for the mother of the country to be executed, and she is Yanhou's sister. ”

"The mother has already said this, I think she will do her best." King Jing seemed to be aroused by him, and his eyes flashed with some deep meaning: "When I went in to ask for peace today, my father scolded Xia Jiang again for a while, and showed me Xia Jiang's confession." ”

"This is very good, showing it to His Highness means that His Majesty does not believe it."

"That's right. Xia Jiang's confession, my father didn't believe a word, but you and I knew in our hearts that most of what he said should still be the truth, not a random bite. King Jing stared deeply into the eyes of the strategist, "But what I can't figure out is that since he is desperately telling the truth, why do you have to say that you are the old man of King Qi?" Unsubstantiated statement will make people think that he is jumping off the wall in a hurry, Xia Jiang should not be such a stupid person, right? ”

"He's not stupid." Mei Changsu smiled, "I told him." ”

"Oh?"

"King Qi is a thorn in Xia Jiang's heart, and his jealousy of Your Highness, all of them are caused by King Qi. I call myself King Qi, and the old man is more likely to make his emotions unstable, which will help propel my plans for the future. ”

"So that's ......," Jing Wangdi leaned back. With a pale face, I don't know whether I believe it or not, but I didn't continue to ask.

Mei Changsu sorted out the books on the table with his hand, and was about to find another topic to talk about, when suddenly there was a commotion outside the house.

"Let's see what's going on." King Jing frowned. Xiang Zhan Ying raised his chin, and the latter immediately ran out, and soon came in with Qi Meng.

"Your Highness! We've got it! Qi Meng's face was full of excitement, and he knelt down in the center and said loudly.

"I know you caught Zhan Ying, and you've already gone back and forth just now."

Lie Zhanying hurriedly said: "No, it's not Qi Meng who said it's not Xu Anmo." ”

"Isn't it Xu Anmo? It's worth your excitement......"

"Monster, Your Highness, what a coincidence, it actually ran to the vicinity of Jiu'an Mountain. We went to search for the rebels, and they surrounded it. Hehehehehe. Qi Meng said with a burst of silly music.

King Jing didn't have the same obsession with what monsters he had. I thought about it for a while before I reacted: "Oh. It's the Jingzhao Yamen who came to ask for help, and you haven't caught the monster for more than a year. ”

"Caught His Highness. We caught it, and it's locked up in an iron cage outside, Your Highness, do you want to take a look? ”

King Jing waved his hand uninterestedly, Mei Changsu took the opportunity to stand up and said, "I want to see if His Highness can allow me to retire?" ”

"Sir, please. Mei Changsu bowed slightly, bowed, and retreated with Qi Meng. King Jing picked up a document placed on the top of the table, opened it, and before he could see half a page, a scream suddenly sounded outside.

"Mr. Sue!"

"It's dangerous...... Fast, fast, ......"

"Mr. Su can't do it......"

Xiao Jingyan rolled over and got up, rushed out with Lie Zhanying's front and back feet, and when he glanced at it for the first time, his heart almost skipped a beat, and in the corner of the spacious courtyard, there was a half-human-high iron cage, and in the cage sat a fluffy dark brown thing that was violently struggling. Mei Changsu's body was blocked by a few frightened soldiers of the Jingwang Mansion who were surrounded by panic, and he couldn't see it, but the pale arms had obviously been pulled into the cage, and both palms were trapped in the brown fur of the monster.

"How?" King Jing's face turned blue in an instant, and he shouted as he rushed forward: "Don't be stunned, save people quickly!" ”

But when he rushed closer and saw more clearly, he was as stunned as his subordinates. It turned out that it wasn't the monster forcibly pulling Mei Changsu's arm, on the contrary, it was hiding, but the cage was too small, no matter how it hid, Mei Changsu grabbed its wrist and didn't let go.

"Don't be afraid...... Don't be afraid...... It's okay, it's okay......" completely ignoring the chaos around him, Mei Changsu concentrated on comforting the monster in the cage, "I won't hurt you, I'll help you, don't move, let me touch ......"

The monster was silent for a moment, and let Mei Changsu fumble his left wrist, but it didn't take long for it to start agitating again, and it kept spewing hot air.

"It's red, it's red, your eyes are red," Qi Meng shouted, "Mr. Su, dodge it, it's about to suck blood as soon as its eyes are red, and I almost sucked someone's blood on the way!" King Jing was shocked, grabbed Mei Changsu's arm and pulled it out.

"You let go!" As soon as Mei Changsu was torn apart, he pounced again: "Didn't you all see him endure it?" He wants to suck blood, yes, especially human blood, sucking blood will alleviate his pain, but he has been putting up with him, trying to control himself, not to hurt people, don't you see? ”

As if to match his words, the monster suddenly roared and struggled in the cage in pain. Mei Changsu held on to the railing of the iron cage and stared at it deeply, and suddenly shouted: "Qi Meng!" ”

"Huh? In the ......"

"Give me your knife."

"What?"

"Bring the knife!" Mei Changsu shouted loudly, Qi Meng jumped as if reflexively, and pulled out his waist knife in a daze, and handed it over. However, Mei Changsu did not reach out to catch the handle of the knife, but pulled his wrist on the blade and pulled out a two-minute long opening. Blood beads suddenly surged up, and the frightened Qi Meng lost his hand and fell to the ground.

"It's okay to come. Take two puffs first. Mei Changsu put his bloody wrist between the iron bars and handed it to the monster's mouth. He said softly: "I have medicine in my blood, you will be better, don't be afraid." If you don't suck me, I'll be fine...... You'll bleed in vain if you don't suck blood......"

The monster gasped and resisted, but in the end, it couldn't resist the red blood beads, grabbed Mei Changsudi's wrist in one bite, and suddenly exclaimed in surprise around him, and King Jing couldn't help but rush forward two steps.

However, everything is as Mei Changsu said, this monster is unwilling to hurt people, it only sucked less than ten mouthfuls. relieved his pain a little, and took the initiative to let go of the wrist in his mouth, and refused to suck it no matter how much he persuaded him.

"Bring the key." Mei Changsu simply tied the wound on his wrist with a hand towel. Got up and stretched out his hand towards Qi Meng, "The key to the iron cage." ”

Qi Meng, who had already been stunned by the scene just now, handed over the key like a puppet. Mei Changsu quickly opened the iron cage. Helped the monster out inside.

"Your Highness, I'll take care of this person. Can he share a room with me? ”

"This ...... Person? ”

"Yes, maybe not really, but it's a person." Mei Changsu's eyes, which have always been plain and cold, are very hot at this time: "If it is inconvenient here, I will take him to set up camp outside, but I just want to ask His Highness to send someone to help me." ”

Xiao Jingyan looked at him in a daze, a little dazed, as if he had not recovered from the shock just now. Mei Changsu didn't urge him to help the "person" next to him and wait quietly.

After a long time, King Jing finally came back to his senses, looked at the door of the West House, looked at Mei Changsu's firm expression, coughed, and said, "Sir, since you are so sure, it's okay to hold here, just please be careful." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness." Mei Changsu showed a gloomy smile on his face, bowed and dragged the "person" in his hand into his West House. King Jing frowned and motioned for Lie Zhanying to follow in.

After a while, Lie Zhanying came out and ordered hot water and a bath bucket to be prepared, and then went into the main house and said to King Jing, "Mr. Su didn't follow that...... The man just kept comforting him and found some medicine for him. Now the man was quiet, and Mr. Su was going to bathe him again. ”

King Jing wrinkled his brows, gently rubbed the wrist of his right hand with his left hand, and said to himself: "But just because it is a person, he will not be able to suck his own blood, right?" ”

Lie Zhanying blinked, and he didn't know what to say, so he could only stand speechlessly. After a while, Qi Meng also came in, hugged his fists, and said thoughtlessly: "His Royal Highness Qiqi turned out to be white. ”

"What white ground?"

"The monster...... Well, when the man washed it out, he realized that the hair on his body was white, but it was too dirty, so he always thought it was brown hair. ”

"Qi Meng!" Lie Zhanying reprimanded: "What are you talking about these inconsequential things to your Highness?" ”

"Your Highness doesn't want to know ......" "Your Highness doesn't want to know this, go down." Seeing that King Jing was dull and silent, Lie Zhanying hurriedly drove Qi Meng out.

Outside the courtyard, two soldiers carried out the dirty water, and someone brought clean towels. Qi Meng, the monster that he had worked so hard to catch for a year, suddenly rose to the specification of "human", which made him very unaccustomed to it, so he stood outside the West House Gate for a while, and then rubbed it in, wanting to take a look again.

The white-haired man was already lying on Mei Changsu's bed at this moment, curled up in a ball, and the long hair on his face covered his facial features. Mei Changsu checked anywhere on his body, he didn't resist, but as soon as he touched his left wrist, he would instinctively throb and hide his wrist in his arms.

Qi Meng stood behind in a daze, and watched for a long time, Mei Changsu didn't pay attention to him, which made him feel very bored, and he went out in a daze. But as soon as he left, Mei Changsu immediately closed the door and window, returned to the bed, and tried to pull the white-haired man's wrist out, but this time he was still refused.

"You don't need to hide it, I know what it is," Mei Changsu said quietly, "That's the bracelet of the Red Flame Army, engraved with everyone's own name, once you die in battle, even if your body is damaged, you can identify the bones through the bracelet, right?" ”

The white-haired man's whole body trembled violently, and his throat was excited to make a "whirring" sound, and his teeth were rattling. "I just want to look at your name and see if there's anything else I can do to help you," Mei Changsu gently patted his back and whispered in his ear, "Come and let me take a look, what if you can do it?" Could it be worse? ”

The white-haired man seemed to be moved by him, and his stiff body slowly softened. Mei Changsu gently and carefully pulled his wrist and slowly brushed away the long hair. Due to the swollen and thickened arm, the finger-wide silver ring has been deeply embedded in the flesh, and the ring is also a little black and blurry, but the unique double cloud flame pattern of the Red Flame Army and the name surrounded by the flame pattern can still be recognized.

Mei Changsu's face was like snow, looking at the name, his vision gradually blurred, and tears rolled down in the blink of an eye, but his eyes were only clear for a moment, and then blurred again.

The white-haired man gasped and sat up, his eyes peeking at the man who was crying in front of him without any scruples, and opened his mouth, but there was only a piercing "ho-ho" sound.

I don't know how long it took, Mei Changsu finally raised his hand, wiped away the tears on his face with his sleeve print, took a deep breath, and smiled.

"Brother Nie Feng, you are still alive...... This is really wonderful......" After saying this, Lin Shu finally couldn't help the excitement in his heart, opened his arms and hugged his former comrades-in-arms tightly.
