In the prison of Deyang County, Huo Yan sat on the damp ground with shackles and shackles. The cell smelled of feces and urine mixed with mold and decay, which made people feel sick.

After the defeat and capture that day, these captives were handed over to some of Xin Ran at the request of Xin Ran, while the other part was taken to Wuyang County, and then escorted by Wang Zhan to CD. The food in the cell is naturally very poor, there is only one meal a day, and you can starve to death. Huo Yan was originally a strong man of almost two hundred pounds, and after only a month in the cell, he was already hungry and skinny, and he looked weak every day.

But three days ago, he was surprised to find that his meals had been much richer since early in the morning. The large white rice is filling, and the dish is also served with three servings.

"Is it time to be beheaded for public display?" Huo Yan thought in his heart, but after being hungry for so many days, where can he take care of this, eat enough first, and then talk about it, he can't go over there to be a starving ghost.

After eating like this for three days in a row, Huo Yan finally felt that he had regained his previous strength by five or six points, and his face became ruddy, no longer as yellow as a few days ago. In that state a few days ago, he couldn't beat an ordinary jailer. And then there are monks, whoever has been hungry for so many days and has no strength in his body, and he is almost the same as ordinary people who have been hungry for so many days.

He had just finished eating today and was about to curl up in the corner to sleep as he had done before, when he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps coming from outside. He opened his eyes and looked, first he saw the light of a fire coming from there, and then several figures appeared, walking straight towards him.

After spending a long time in the dark, he suddenly couldn't stand the light of such a bright torch, and couldn't help but squint his eyes. Although he didn't know the person who was the leader, judging from the other party's clothes, he also knew that this person was the Taishou Xinran of Guanghan County.

"Xin Fujun actually came to see Huo on the road in person?" Huo Yan looked at Xin Ran, who walked into his cell, and said, "Should Huo feel flattered, or should he feel honored?"

Xin Ran smiled slightly, waved his hand and let the people who followed him leave far away, and then spoke: "Huo Yan, you were originally a sergeant of the imperial court, but you had to follow Jian Shuo to take refuge in the exiles after Zhao Min's rebellion, and this mansion feels sorry for you deep down." ”

"It turns out that Xin Fujun wants to recruit me?" Huo Yan heard this, his heart moved slightly, but his face did not change, and he said coldly.

"It's not a surrender. Xin Ran shook her finger at Huo Yan and said, "I want to give Deyang to you." ”

"What?" Rao is Huo Yan was used to seeing all kinds of bizarre things in the world, and his face was shocked when he heard this.

"To tell you the truth, the Yandao People's Volunteers in Deyang City caused me a big disaster and killed Xi Wei, the military commander of Liang Yi Erzhou, who came to inspect. The old man can't bear this responsibility, just like you did at that time, do you still have to wait for death?" Xin Ran's face had already changed to a heavy look at this time, "Then I had to run away overnight." ”

"What about the Yandao People's Volunteers?" Huo Yan couldn't help but ask.

"They're still in the city. Xin Ran said: "The old man is forced by their strength, and he has pacified them for the time being. ”

"What does this have to do with me?" Huo Yan's mind spun rapidly. He knew in his heart that pies would not suddenly fall from the sky, and Xin Ran came to him, naturally wanting to take advantage of him.

Xin Ran saw that the other party put on a look of disinterest, and sneered: "To tell you the truth, this mansion will leave Deyang immediately after leaving this cell." Before leaving, I felt that you and I were in a similar situation, so I had a kind heart to release you. Truth be told, today is your only chance for the captives. More than 100 members of the Yandao People's Volunteers were sleeping soundly at the moment, and the walls of their courtyard were already full of flammable materials. But if you don't burn them, the government won't do anything. If you, Huo Yan, are willing, then take your people out to burn them and occupy Deyang City. If you don't want to, hehe. ”

Hearing this, Huo Yan's face finally changed, and he said, "Do you have any weapons, bows and arrows?"

"It's ready for you. ”

"Good. Huo Yan said loudly and simply: "Although I, Huo, don't know what your dignified Xin Fujun has in mind, but the left and right are dead, and I did it." ”

Speaking of this, Huo Yan stared at Xin Ran for a moment, and then spoke: "Today I only know why I can't be an official, you officials are really dead and don't pay for your life." The Yandao People's Volunteers came to help you defend Deyang City, but they ended up like this. I can't figure it out. ”

"Hahahaha," Xin Ran laughed a few times, "you just need to understand that I gave you a Deyang City for nothing." After speaking, in Huo Yan's complicated eyes, Xin Ran strode out.

Two hours later, outside the city of Deyang. The sky was already a little bright at this time, and Xin Ran, who was riding on a black horse, stopped to look at the tall and majestic Deyang City, revealing an indescribable look in her eyes.

There was a sound of horses' hooves, and a group of people came to Xin Ran from the city, led by Xin Hui.

"Everything is done?" Xin Ran asked lightly.

"Everything was done, Qiao Feng and none of them escaped from the fire. Xin Hui replied, but there was an unbearable look on his face, "Father, I don't understand, why do you want to kill them all like this?"

"As long as they live, there will always be leaks. Only the dead keep secrets. Xin Ran's face did not change, and he said to Xin Hui, "Send someone to tell Xu Yuanjun that the Yandao People's Volunteers are fighting with Xi Wei for your sister Xin Wan." Qiao Feng led the people into the city without authorization and killed Xi Wei and his party, and we were defeated in the battle, so we could only escape from Deyang. This pot, after all, let the big hero who killed the national thief Shen Xiu carry it. Bring my letter of resignation to that Xu envoy along with the Taishou Great Seal, and we will leave Shu and leave this chaotic land. ”
