Volume 3 The Valley of Wu Wei Chapter 89 The human heart is insufficient

Hou Huaigu also ordered a gray-clothed man beside him to call the group of people brought by Mr. Su over, and then let the remaining poisonous warriors clean up the battlefield. Some of them tied up the wounded and stuffed cloth in their mouths, and gathered them and the dead to the edge of the valley. The rest began to collect their horses, weapons, belongings, and money.

Hou Huaigu came to Liu Jizu's side first, and arched his hand, "Childe, I'm going to start training these people, there are a few things I want to discuss with you first, I want to ...... first"

Liu Jizu raised his hand to interrupt him, "Senior Hou, you don't have to discuss with me, you can do whatever you want, I agree!"

Hou Huaigu didn't say anything when he heard this, just glanced at Liu Jizu, arched his hand at Liu Jizu, and stood back next to those prisoners.

When everyone had arrived, he raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and said loudly to the people: "Everyone, this is only the first battle, there will be more to come, and the people who will come will become more and more powerful, you must listen to my words clearly, and then think carefully before making a decision." Later, if you choose to follow Li Gongzi, you will have to work hard together. Those who choose to stay will become warriors, and you will no longer be civilians, whether old or young, women or children. If you are a soldier, you must obey the order, and those who violate the order will be beheaded, and the military law is ruthless, so don't joke with your own life. It's not that I'm scaring you, there is still a large army of the King of Chu behind us who will intercept us, if we don't organize like this, we won't be able to escape at all, and you won't be able to live. ”

A few of those people were frightened when they heard that there was an interception by the army of the king of Chu, Hou Huaigu saw it in his eyes, remained silent, and continued: "So if you want to stay, you must be ruthless, it's not that I'm cruel, it's really that if you don't kill people, people will kill you." My first order is to take out your weapons and stab each of the captives behind you, whether dead or alive, with force and blood.

If you can't stand it, please put down the weapons in your hands, go to Mr. Su and Mr. Fan to receive ten taels of silver, pack up your things and leave as soon as possible. We don't have much time to waste here, so we can only give you a stick of incense time to discuss, and make a decision quickly!"

After speaking, he stood next to Liu Jizu, and the people began to discuss it in a chaotic manner.

After a while, a man in gray came over to report to Hou Huaigu on the situation of cleaning the battlefield.

Hou Huaigu said: "In the future, the prince will be my lord, when we are together, you must ask him for instructions first!"

The man was stunned when he heard this, as if he understood something, and then arched his hand towards Liu Jizu, "Son Qiyu, the battlefield has been cleaned, and a total of eighteen people have been killed and injured on the other side, ten of which are still alive, eight are dead, and eighteen horses, of which five have been injured in the legs, and the remaining thirteen are available." The gold and silver found on the bodies of the eighteen men were three thousand eight hundred and fifty taels of silver, and the weapons were twelve swords and six swords. In addition, eleven bottles of Hundred Poison Cure were found, five bottles passed away with the wind, five bottles were drunk for thousands of years, and there were eighteen complete sets of treasure bags in Wuwei Valley, and the contents were all complete. Childe, please. ”

Liu Jizu said: "Transfer it all over to Mr. Fan." ”

Hou Huaigu said at this time: "Unload the saddle equipment of the five horses and hand them to Mr. Fan together." Childe, those five horses might as well be killed for everyone to eat, otherwise these horses will end up dying in pain if they break their legs. ”

Liu Jizu frowned, and finally nodded.

Hou Huaigu instructed his subordinates again: "You take a few people to kill those batches of wounded horses, try to let them die without pain, and then peel off the skin, build a lot of fire to smoke and roast the meat, so that we can save it until we finish eating." ”

And his men did as he commanded.

Hou Huaigu said to Liu Jizu at this time: "Son, I made my own decision just now, according to my opinion, many people will leave in this way, I don't know if it is appropriate?"

Liu Jizu nodded, "Senior Hou is thoughtful, and he is not making his own decisions, these are all agreed by me." ”

Hou Huaigu listened, hesitated for a moment, wanted to say something but stopped, bowed and said, "Then I will continue to train them." ”

After saying that, he came to everyone and said, "Okay, I can only give you these time, please stand on my left hand side if you are willing to stay and follow Childe, and stand on my right hand side if you are unwilling!"

The people were stunned for a few seconds, and then began to choose sides. In the end, there were only a hundred people standing on his left, and more than two hundred standing on his right. The more than 100 people on the left side also include 47 girls who have no family and the 30 boys, and the rest is that Mr. Su left 10 families on his side, including 10 girls and their 10 fathers and brothers, and Mr. Fan only left 8 men on the side, fortunately, the 18 adults are all young adults under the age of 40, and the nine people who followed Liu Jizu to save people have stayed.

Hou Huaigu's eyelids jumped, and he turned his head to look at Liu Jizu, who was also a little embarrassed in his heart, but his expression did not change, he just nodded.

Hou Huaigu understood and said to those who were leaving: "Take all your own things with you, leave the weapons we issued, and then go to Mr. Fan to get the silver." ”

Those people were a little embarrassed at first, after all, Liu Jizu and the others saved them, and Doctor Feng took care of them on the way. But as soon as they were out of sight, the men sped up and quickly packed up their belongings. Mr. Fan pulled the carriage containing the silver directly to Liu Jizu and waited.

Those people packed up their things and crowded next to Mr. Fan's car and asked him to hurry up and send the money.

Mr. Fan blushed and scolded them for being ungrateful.

When Liu Jizu saw it, he smiled and said: "Everyone has their own ambitions, don't force them, give them money!"

At this time, a few people in the back saw that Liu Jizu was young and easy-going, thinking that he was a bully, and exchanged glances with each other. One of them said, "I heard my daughters say that they can carry a lot of silver from the Valley of Wuwei! Why only give us ten taels, is this fair?

Liu Jizu frowned when he heard this, and he turned his head to look at the people who were coaxing. Then he walked slowly up to them and asked, "Did they carry something out of there, and give you ten taels of silver for their labor?"

The person who took the lead rolled his eyes, "Of course it's less, you have to divide it equally, my daughter has also done her best, if you don't have them on your back, how much money can you take out alone, everyone says right!" At this time, the surrounding people took advantage of the situation to surround Liu Jizu.

When Liu Jizu saw it, his face sank. He didn't expect that these people who had received his favor would take revenge like this. Hou Huaigu looked good, but he was still too tender. People say, 'There is something hateful about the wretched,' and there seems to be some truth to that. But at this time, Liu Jizu has experienced many life and death tests, and he is no longer the kind of person who has no heart and is bullied.

When he saw people coming around, he did not hesitate, nor did he call the others, but quickly acted himself. One person only used one move, and he was more skilled than Wu Lun had taught the gang of thieves at that time, and the people who surrounded him all lay on the ground and moaned.

Finally, he grabbed the neck of the man who was leading the way. He gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "Give you face, you don't have a face, you think Lao Tzu is muddy." If I hadn't led someone to rescue your daughters, they would still be locked up in their cells in Wuwei Valley waiting to be tested. If we hadn't killed those guards and Jiang Yao and the others, the money from you. If we hadn't rescued Doctor Feng and the others, who treated you for free, I'm afraid many of you wouldn't have survived for long. If we hadn't fled with you, would you have escaped here? If we hadn't repelled the pursuers of Wuwei Valley today, your daughters would have been captured a long time ago, would you still be alive?

The money is indeed everyone's, and it should be used by everyone together, and if you stay, you can also use it together, but leaving is another matter, and giving each of you ten taels of silver to make a coil is already considered to be benevolent and righteous! To be a man, you must be a man, and dogs know how to repay kindness, are you not even as good as dogs?"

At this time, a girl next to her cried and knelt down for Liu Jizu and begged: "Please let me go, Daddy, you will strangle him to death." ”

Liu Jizu glanced at the girl, calmed down a little, and threw the person he was pinching to the ground, the person's face was already purple, and he was lying on the ground panting.

Liu Jizu sighed, "Don't think that I'm good at talking, I have to inch in." After you leave, you are not allowed to reveal anything about us to the outside world. Otherwise, if I know, we will be enemies. Is there anything you want to say now?"

Those people around them shook their heads wherever they dared to say anything.

"If you don't have anything to say, just take the money and leave. I'll leave it to Mr. Fan here, please ask Senior Hou to arrange a few people to keep an eye on it, and if someone makes trouble, kill it directly. Let's go over and train our recruits!"

Hou Huaigu listened and hurriedly went to arrange, and then they came to the valley mouth together.

At this time, the one hundred and four people who chose to stay were already waiting there, and Liu Jizu looked at it, there were eighty-seven children and seventeen adults.

Mr. Su greeted him first, rubbed his hands and said embarrassedly: "Childe, it seems that I am too optimistic! I thought that these people could no longer stand the oppression of the King of Chu, and they would definitely follow you with all their hearts, it seems that I am thinking too much." I guess those people may not have reached the point where they are exhausted, and they can't afford to give up the few acres of land at home. Mr. Fan is mostly looking for a miracle doctor to see a doctor, and during this time, they have begged the miracle doctor to be optimistic, so there is no need to stay any longer.

As for those black sheep, don't take it to heart, they are not good people in the township. This time, they came along, not because they were reluctant to give up their children, but because they wanted to take this opportunity to blackmail some money. It's just that I pity their children, and maybe they will be sold! I'll make amends for you on their behalf!"

After speaking, he was about to kneel down and kowtow, Liu Jizu hurriedly supported him, "What is Mr. Su talking about, what does their business have to do with you? Besides, it is not necessarily a bad thing for them to leave, otherwise it is easier to do bad things if people are not in harmony and have ghosts in their hearts." ”

Mr. Su was very grateful, and bowed to Liu Jizu before standing back in the team. Liu Jizu motioned to Hou Huaigu to start immediately, Hou Huaigu hesitated, but still asked, "Childe, what about these children?"

Doctor Feng immediately said, "This doesn't need to be asked, they are still young, how can they be allowed to kill!"
