Thirty-eight

"He, he, he's awake!"

Liang Duo stood up and pointed to the one on the ground, and said so! Xiao Yi and Lord Ning naturally found out a long time ago, but the one who was even more scared was naturally that person, in such a situation, in the face of such three strangers, how could they not be afraid?!

The man saw the three of them at a glance, and immediately opened the other eye, and he tried hard to get up, but he found that he couldn't move at all, his neck was red, and the wound on his head was a little darker!

Xiao Yi said softly,

"You're not lightly hurt, but don't move!"

The man opened his mouth to say something, but something seemed to be stuck in his throat, and all he could hear was "Ahhh

Xiao Yi said again,

"Since you can't say it, then don't say it!"

Lord Ning came to the man, examined him, and preached to him,

"Open your mouth as hard as you can to show me!"

The man's eyes wandered on the three of them, and finally stopped at Lord Ning, he should have felt it, the three of them had no ill will towards him, and even more, he suddenly found that the quilt covering his body was very familiar! He suddenly became excited, and tears flowed from his eyes!

Lord Ning said again,

"Hurry up, open your mouth for me to see!"

The man couldn't stop crying, but at this time he was obedient, and opened his mouth hard! Master Ning put the candle flame to his mouth, and took a serious look, this throat was seriously congested, and there was a blood clot blocking it, no wonder he couldn't speak! Fortunately, this blood clot did not completely block the airway, so it would not kill him because of this!

Ningda humane,

"This, I don't know how to treat it, you, sleep on your side, so that the pus and blood can flow out, maybe it will be better!"

The man seemed to understand, but he stayed for a while before he blinked! Lord Ning turned him on his side, leaned against the wall, and put something on his head, so that if there was pus and blood, it could be discharged smoothly! Sure enough, it was effective, and a lot of blood and phlegm that had accumulated before really slowly flowed out of his mouth! Lord Ning was not afraid of getting dirty, so he took a cloth towel to wipe it for him! Suddenly, the man coughed for a while, and because of this cough, he also brought out a lot of blood clots! After the blood clot came out in this way, it would naturally be much more comfortable, and he gasped for breath in his mouth, and he couldn't calm down for a long time! After a long time, he eased up, and he was a little sad, just because the blood spit out from his mouth was still more or less stained on the quilt!

Lord Ning cleaned up the dirty things, and then asked him softly,

"Can you tell us what happened today?!"

The man looked at the room, reconfirmed the identities of the three men, and finally shook his head. Xiao Yi knew that he still had some problems with the three of them, after all, he had never seen the three of them!

Master Ning stepped back a little, and then said with a smile,

"You are so blessed to have such a lovely and sensible pair of children!"

The man's eyes lit up, and he looked at the three of them suspiciously, and only after a long time did he reply,

"You, how, how do you know, you know?"

He was able to speak, not very clearly, but he could understand it completely! He coughed up the pus and blood, and after a while, he was able to speak!

Lord Ning smiled,

"It seems that we guessed correctly, you are really the father of that pair of siblings!"

The man struggled, a little flustered, and said hurriedly,

"Who the hell are you guys and what do you want to do?!"

Lord Ning replied,

"Naturally, we are not bad people, and of course it is impossible to deal with your wife and children, and we are only interested in you!"

And he said,

"I—I don't have anything to say!"

Lord Ning smiled,

"I almost died here, there's nothing to say?!"

The man gritted his teeth and replied,

"yes, there's nothing to say!"

Lord Ning smiled,

"If your children were to ask, would you say the same thing?"

The man was silent and replied,

"When I left home, I didn't think I'd go back alive!"

Lord Ning smiled, nodded again, and replied,

"Oh, who did he sneak home to see for a long time before this big war!"

The man was astonished and asked,

"You guys, how do you know!"

Lord Ning replied to him,

"I'll tell you the truth! This quilt was also given to us by your two children, and we wanted to send it back at night, but we saw a man sneaking behind the room! That man was strange, he was only outside, and he didn't look like a thief! So, we waited there! Later, we followed the man away, and we arrived at this place! The next thing, maybe we know better than the man! Well, that person is you, do you have anything else to ask?!"

This person was too surprised, Xiao Yi and the three of them actually followed him, this, isn't it that he has exposed his target! He took a few breaths, and he couldn't stop coughing, and he stopped for a long time! Finally, after coughing and wiping the blood away, he opened his mouth again, and said,

"This, all of you, all of you?"

He tried to look out the door, and the doubts were completely written on his face!

Lord Ning understood what he meant, and preached to him,

"It's a pity that all the people who came, except for you, died!"

His eyes widened, and his eyeballs were about to be glared out by him! How could he dare to believe that he was the only one who survived when so many people came together! And if he was able to survive, he would have taken good fortune, if he hadn't been knocked unconscious, most of them would have been unable to escape death! Moreover, after fainting, Xiao Yi and three people rescued him, and he finally saved his life!

Tears flowed down his eyes, and when he spoke, he cried very loudly,

"How could they be, how could they all be dead?!"

Lord Ning also felt sorry for him, and said,

"You should know better than us how powerful the other party is! Your people, although they have tall horses, but in this street battle, they can't take any advantage! Although they have few people, they are all powerful, so although the difference in numbers between the two sides is huge, it is normal to have a tie! However, you are still alive, and in the end, you still win!"

The man burst into tears, his tears quickly became wet, he struggled hard, and got out of the quilt, Lord Ning stepped forward to help, helped him sit up, and leaned against the wall!

After a long time, I listened to him again,

"What's the point of being the only one left?!"

Lord Ning replied to him,

"Everyone has the meaning of his existence, your comrades-in-arms are dead, you are sad, but you still have your own wife and children, they are also looking forward to your return every moment, for them, you are their heaven, if you die, what should they do? Life at every moment, will give people a different mission, your first half of life, has long become a cloud of the past, embracing the future, is what you need to do most now!"

The man half-closed his bloodshot eyes and asked,

"You, how do you know that we were comrades?!"

Lord Ning replied to him,

"We have also seen the two of you make a move, and your skills are also good, and besides, the one who came first with you has already broken an arm! And you, your legs and feet are not very good, at a glance, you can see that you have been injured before, as for the man who kicked your leg off today, it should have happened to hit the old wound! And the hundreds you brought, I can see at a glance that they are all serious cavalry, and they are all fully armed, not an ordinary team! Since you two can be with them, I don't think you will just be ordinary villagers! ā€

When the man heard this, he was silent for a while, and then he said,

"Even if you're right, we, we were indeed soldiers! Later, we became crippled and sent back! Since then, a kind person arranged a marriage for us, and then gave birth to those two lovely children! I thought that this life would go on like this, who would have thought, who would have thought!"

Lord Ning asked,

"What happened after that?"

The man raised his eyes to look at Master Ning, and shook his head again, but he still didn't want to explain! He tried to raise his head, and asked again,

"And where are they, where are they now?!"

Lord Ning replied to him,

"We've put the people together and we're lying in the middle of the field. It's cold outside, it's all frozen to ice!"

Lord Ning let out a sigh of relief, and continued,

"Why didn't we help, because we don't know which of you is the good guy! Maybe you're both good guys, or maybe you're both wicked!"

The man was sad alone for a long time, and it took a long time before he came to his senses, and then he raised his eyes and asked in confusion,

"Good guys, wicked guys?

Ningda humane,

"I can also hear clearly, this group of cavalry, it's not good, but it's all rebels!"

The man gritted his teeth, his face turned purple again, and replied,

"No, it's not a rebel, it's a rebel!"

Lord Ning continued,

"It's not a rebel, then why are they here to commit murder in this imperial city that has been invaded by foreigners?!"

The man's eyes widened, and he blinked, and then he said,

"Imperial City, impossible, with so many people protecting you, how can there be anything! Heh, don't joke with me anymore!"

Lord Ning smiled back at him,

"Whether you believe it or not, I only have one sentence, if it is not handled properly, maybe after dawn, the emperor will have to change his surname!"

The man still couldn't believe it, but laughed out loud and replied,

"Hehe, who is the emperor, for me, what difference does it make for a common man? Whether his surname is Zhao or Wang, he has nothing to do with me!"

Lord Ning also half-narrowed his eyes and said,

"Oh, it seems that you don't have a good impression of the emperor!Well, it's strange, haven't you been a soldier, is it possible, after being injured, the emperor's officials have no good life to settle you?!"

Now the man was in great spirits, and he spoke with strength, and heard him,

"You don't have to guess anymore, in short, I can't control the emperor's affairs, and I don't have the ability to take care of it!"

Lord Ning smiled and replied to him,

"Okay, okay, if that's the case, then let's not talk about it again!"

When the man heard this, he bowed his head with great emphasis, and said,

"Well, don't talk about that anymore!"

Lord Ning's expression suddenly became serious, and he said word by word,

"Who, then, is this one you are looking for?"

The man's heart was beating more than stopping, and his breathing began to rapid, and it was only a moment before he replied,

"No, nobody, nobody!"

Lord Ning smiled coldly and replied to him,

"Don't dodge anymore, we've already seen him, and we'll know who he is sooner or later!"

The man threw himself forward, touched the broken leg, trembled in pain, gritted his teeth and asked,

"What? You've seen him, he, where is he now, where is he?"

Lord Ning didn't reply to him, but still followed his own train of thought,

"Who is he, and why is he so important to you?"

The man shook his head and said,

"No, no, I don't know, I don't know!"

The man was a little flustered, Lord Ning talked about his pain points, heh, what is he hiding, is that person really so important to him?!

Lord Ning stood up, flicked his sleeves, whirred, and said sharply,

"Don't hide it anymore, do you really want to say it yourself!"

Xiao Yi said in his heart, looking at his appearance, Lord Ning may have guessed who the other party is! Why didn't he say it directly, what was the point of forcing this person to answer?!

The man still didn't answer, but Lord Ning let out a sigh of relief, and then he said,

"Okay, okay, then let me analyze it and listen to you!"

The man raised his eyes, his face was dazed, and Lord Ning asked again,

"You disappeared more than half a year ago, right?!"

The man didn't reply, but nodded slowly! Xiao Yi naturally knew that the little girl would never tell a lie! At this point, the other party seemed to have nothing to hide, after all, there was no possibility of negligence!

Lord Ning said again,

"More than half a year ago, I went around to track down the whereabouts of the poison god, and passed through Xiangyang many times, Xiangyang is an important place for transportation, and intelligence from all over the world can also be gathered here! And it was there that I heard a news that shocked the government and the opposition!"

The man's chest rose and fell slightly, and it seemed that he was also a little weak-hearted, but he still asked again,

"You, what did you hear?!"

Lord Ning glanced back at Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi's heart was also sudden, more than half a year ago, people were in Yangzhou, and they heard a lot of news, but this shocked the government and the opposition, but there were few things!

Lord Ning nodded at Xiao Yi, looked back at the man, and said,

"That's right, that's exactly what happened! The general colluded with internal reactionary forces and united with foreign clans, wanting to seize the world and become the emperor himself!"

Xiao Yi had heard the news a long time ago, but at this time, listening to Lord Ning, it was still difficult to calm down! Yes, this great general, Xiao Yi is more concerned than others, because he is Yao'er's father and his father-in-law!

Master Ning paused slightly, and then continued,

"Half a year ago, this news spread all over the city, and sometimes it was said too much, and it was not a fact, but it also became a fact! I used to be an official, and naturally I also knew the general's character, how could he do such a big rebellious thing! But no one could stop this leisurely mouth, and after a few months, when this matter was mentioned again, how many people would cry out for him!"

The man's face was solemn, he lowered his head, and he didn't say a word! And Xiao Yi's chest rose and fell, no matter how calm it was! Liang Duo didn't quite understand the deep meaning, so it seemed the most natural!

Lord Ning said again,

"When you left home, it happened to be at that time, so I have a bold idea, you, and your brother, you two want to go to the general, you don't believe that he will rebel, he is the god of your heart, and it is absolutely impossible to do such a thing!

The man's eyes widened, and the tears of the bean were falling one by one, but Lord Ning still did not stop, and continued,

"The general has been fighting for many years, and naturally there will not be a few people who worship him! And you may have fought mercilessly under his command and on the battlefield! These cavalrymen outside must be the same as you! They don't believe the emperor, that's why they say such rebellious things! And the most important point is that they have discovered a major secret after many investigations!

The man spoke a few words slowly,

"Secret, secret?"

Lord Ning cut the railway,

"That's right, this secret is naturally a big secret that can shake the earth!"

The man finally raised his head again, his eyes were bloodshot, Lord Ning looked straight into his eyes, as if he could see all the answers from them, and listened to him continue,

"That's right, this secret is that the general is not dead, he was imprisoned by the emperor, and all this you have done today is to save him! In your opinion, even if all of your own people are dead, if you can rescue him, it will be worth it!"

That person was not uncomfortable because of Lord Ning, and tilted his head to the side, but he didn't dare to answer! Xiao Yi had always thought that it would be his master Ye Feng who would be imprisoned, but listening to Lord Ning's analysis, it really seemed like that!

Lord Ning did not hesitate, and continued,

"We have also discussed before, what kind of person is it, who has enough energy to affect the overall situation! After thinking about it, I thought it would be that Ye Feng! It was not until I saw all this today and heard that person speak with my own ears that I dared to think about it in this way! Sure enough, judging from your performance, there is no doubt that what is locked up here is really the Great General!"

The man didn't dare to reply, but looking at his appearance, he should have acquiesced! Liang Duo didn't speak, and it wasn't until this time that he said excitedly,

"Oh, it turns out that the person my uncle said is a general! Yes, yes, my uncle and the general are old friends, and they have drunk and talked many times, and they have slept in the same bed, and the friendship between them is deep! One of them guards the southeast and the other guards the northwest, and they are all first-class heroes! Uncle Ke, more than once mentioned the general in front of me, he admires the general very much, and every time he talks about it, his eyebrows will fly, as if he has eaten the fruit of the gods! I mean, my uncle has been so strange these days, maybe he heard the news, so he went everywhere to look for it! Who would have thought that the emperor would hide the general here, and people pass by every day, but no one can find out!"

Xiao Yi still can't calm down in his heart, so naturally he can't open his mouth! However, Lord Ning hasn't finished speaking, so let's listen to him continue,

"That's right, just as Liang Duo said, Lord Huang should also be involved in the rescue! It's just that his identity is special, and his actions should not be too ostentatious! But he firmly believes that as long as the general is really not dead, it will definitely be at the foot of this imperial city! His judgment is right, but he was still deceived by the emperor, and it was not until today that you came over to solve this puzzle!"

Liang Duo gritted his teeth and asked again,

"Brother Ning, you said that if your uncle was transferred to the capital to be an official, could it be because the emperor can't trust the general? As long as it is an official who is a good friend of the general, most of them will be stripped of their real power!"

Lord Ning couldn't help but nod and replied,

"In my opinion, maybe the emperor started planning a few years ago, after all, the great general's prestige has been extremely strong over the years, and it has already threatened his position! And he doesn't dare to cut it off with one sword, if the other party takes the opportunity to rebel, it will not be easy to clean up! Therefore, he wants to take it step by step, pull out all these positions that are good with the general, and when the time is ripe, he will take the general again!"

Liang Duo hated and said,

"The emperor is really stingy, I have also heard that there is no suspicion in employing people, no suspicion in doubt, since you don't believe in the general, then recall him, just like an uncle, just arrange an idle position, why do you want to say that he rebelled, put him, and lock him up in this place!"

Lord Ning let out a sigh of relief and said,

"The king's heart is unguessable!"

The man slowly raised his head and whispered,

"You, how do you know so much, who are you?!"

Lord Ning looked at him directly, and there was sincerity in his eyes, and he replied,

"We are all just people in the rivers and lakes now, but we know that there may be great changes in this world, or it will cause thousands of people to suffer, so although we are weak, we also want to do our part!

The man tried to speak, but he swallowed back, and he still couldn't speak!

Lord Ning said again,

"Think about it, if the general knows that someone will assassinate the emperor, the world may change masters at any time, how will he react? ! Moreover, after the general leaves, the forces of all parties are ready to move, if something happens to the emperor again, the world will be ruined again!"

In his opinion, he had only one hope, that is, he could save the general, and as for the rest, he didn't care at all! However, what Lord Ning said just now was indeed deeply rooted in the hearts of the people! Yes, didn't the general fight and kill the battlefield just exchange his life for the peace of the world? If he really knew all this, how would he choose, like them, it has nothing to do with himself, and he hung it high? Or would he put his gun on his horse again and fight for the emperor's life?! He hugged his head and cried!

Lord Ning let out a sigh of relief and said,

"Time is running out, you must say it sooner!"

Although he had already guessed everything, Lord Ning still had to give him some more time, he was the only survivor of this, and he knew the secret, perhaps much more than a few people imagined!

The man hugged his head and cried for a while, wiped away his tears with his hands, clenched his teeth tightly, and said,

"That's right, we are just going to take advantage of the chaos to save the general, as for what happened in the palace, it has nothing to do with us!"
