When Zhang Tianci climbed the tower again, it was almost noon, and the sun was hanging high in the sky, illuminating the earth hot.

After Zhang Tianci went upstairs, he shouted to General Dongzanlang under the city: "General Dongzanlang has been waiting for a long time, and we can promise to send you out of the city if you want someone." It's just that Yuwen Haotian was assassinated by someone and poisoned too deeply, and he has died, what do you think?"

"To live to see a man, to die to see a corpse. Even if it's a dead man, you will hand it over to us. Dong Zanlang said without question.

"Okay. Zhang Tianci turned to his subordinates and ordered, "Open the city gate and hand over Yuwen Haotian's body to them." ”

After the city gate was opened, a carriage covered with black cloth drove out of the city gate, and the carriage slowly came to the front of the Tufan camp, and a group of Tufan soldiers stepped forward to surround the carriage.

After the coachman got off the carriage, he walked to the back of the carriage, lifted the black cloth, and opened the back door of the carriage, only to see a pine coffin parked in the carriage, the coffin was open, and the coffin lid leaned diagonally to the side.

Dong Zanlang rode over, looked down at the coffin on the carriage, and saw Yuwen Haotian wearing a general's armor, lying in it with his eyes closed, seeing that his face was indeed poisoned and died.

Tufan and King Yuwen have been dealing in the Northern Regions for more than ten years, General Dongzanlang is quite familiar with Yuwen Haotian, and he is also very respectful, seeing that Yuwen Haotian has indeed returned to the West Heaven, he silently bowed his head and saluted, expressing his sorrow.

At this time, the coachman said: "Ladies and gentlemen, see clearly, if there is no problem, I will cover the coffin." According to the customs of our Central Plains people, after a person dies, after the coffin is covered, it can no longer be opened, which is very disrespectful to the deceased. ”

After Dong Zanlang nodded in agreement, the coachman got into the car and closed the lid of the coffin, and then four Tufan soldiers got on the car to carry the coffin down and place it in front of the Tufan camp. Then the coachman drove the empty carriage back to Quyang County.

Before Dong Zanlang rode his horse back to the city, he asked the heavenly gift in the city: "There is also Wu Zheng, please hand over General Zhang as well." ”

Zhang Tianci waved his hand behind him, and a team of soldiers pushed Wu Zheng, who was tied up with five flowers, to the city tower. Zhang Tianci pointed to Wu Zheng and said to Dong Zanlang under the city: "After our investigation, the criminal minister Wu Zheng did interfere in the war in the Western Regions in the name of the imperial court as the general said, and broke the armistice agreement between the two countries in a fraudulent way. The charges are found to be correct, and the guilt should be beheaded. In view of the fact that Wu Zheng is a criminal of his own country, he should be brought to justice by his own country, and then handed him over to your country, what does the general think?"

Tan Yunyue and Liu County Yin, who were on the side, were shocked when they heard Tianci say this, and Deputy General Tan hurriedly came to Tianci's side and whispered: "Wu Zheng is an official of the imperial court, and the official rank is above you, you can't behead him without authorization, and no one can afford to pursue it in the future, please think twice." ”

"He is bigger than me, but he is not as big as the national law, the current predicament is because of him, it is difficult to persuade Tufan to withdraw the army without killing him, I enforce the law for the country, but also for the tens of thousands of people in Quyang County to avoid the misery of life. Tianci said firmly.

Dong Zanlang under the city replied: "In this case, we have no intention of interfering with your country's punishment of criminals according to law, but it is still the same sentence, you must see people in life, and you must see corpses in death." ”

"Okay! The general is really refreshing! I will also give the general a good explanation. After that, Tianci took out the sword at his waist, and the knife fell in his hand, so Wu Zheng didn't even have time to call out "ah", and a human head rolled down the city.

General Dong Zanlang ordered someone to come forward to pick up Wu Zheng's head, and after gathering it, he was about to order the withdrawal of the army, when he suddenly heard a "boom", but saw that the pine coffin that had been placed in front of the battle just now suddenly burst into flames, and the fire was very fast, burning under the scorching sun at noon, and in a moment there was only a pile of ashes.

The Tufan people have always worshiped fire as a god, as a symbol of auspicious light, seeing this phenomenon, they all believe that it was the god of fire from heaven who took away the body of King Yuwen, and the officers and soldiers of Tufan were in a sound of surprise, and their hearts also increased their admiration for King Yuwen.

Seeing this sudden fire, General Dong Zanlang shook his head helplessly, and after the fire was extinguished, he asked the soldiers to collect and pack a few pieces of bone remains in the ashes, and then led the army to withdraw from outside Quyang County.

Looking at the withdrawn Tufan army, the officers and soldiers in the city breathed a long sigh of relief and relieved, everyone appreciated Zhang Zongbing's handling and response to this matter, otherwise, the officers and soldiers of Quyang and the people would inevitably be a disaster of war, but there were also many people who sweated for Zhang Zongbing, and worried about his career and even his life.

After returning to the General Soldier's Mansion, Tianci came to the backyard alone, where the carriage that had just transported Yuwen Haotian's coffin was parked. Chen Gengsheng was standing on the side of the carriage, and when he saw that Tianci was coming, his face was overjoyed, and he stepped forward to report: "Lord General Soldier, according to your arrangement, King Yuwen has been settled." With that, he led Tianci into a side room in the backyard.

It turned out that after sending Langzhong away that day, after returning to Fuzhong, Tianci suddenly remembered the Dingkun Divine Pill given to him by the Taoist priest Buji, and he remembered that Buji had told him that this pill could treat the dying and sick whose lives were hanging by a thread, and had the effect of reviving the dead. Thinking of this, he was overjoyed in his heart, and he must save Yuwen Haotian, because this person has some mysterious connection with his life experience, and he must not be allowed to die like this.

Who knew that the next day, the Tufan army besieged the city and asked him to hand over Yuwen Haotian by name. He thought that it was useless to save Yuwen Haotian at this time, and he had to hand him over to Tufan for treatment, so it was better to have a plan and let Yuwen Haotian "die". So he used the Taoist acupoint technique to temporarily close Yuwen Haotian's acupoint, making him look like he was really dead.

He also privately confessed to Chen Gengsheng, and asked him to secretly find the carriage that had carried King Yuwen, secretly modified the carriage, and installed a secret compartment under the chassis, just enough to accommodate two people. In addition, a coffin was specially restructured, and a mechanism was installed on the bottom plate of the coffin, which could open and close the bottom of the coffin at any time from below. Finally, phosphorus powder was mixed into the paint and the coffin was repainted.

When the carriage pulled the coffin containing Yuwen Haotian's "remains" and came to the Tufan camp, when the enemy had examined the corpse and covered the coffin, Chen Gengsheng, who was hiding in the hidden compartment under the car, activated the mechanism and put the "remains" of Yuwen Haotian in the coffin into the hidden compartment, and at the same time, he put the corpse of a dead sheep he brought with him into the coffin.

When the Tufan soldiers carried down the coffin, the carriage pulled Chen Gengsheng and Yuwen Haotian who were hidden in the secret compartment under the car and returned to Quyang County.

The Tufan soldiers carried the coffin down from the black-clothed carriage and placed it in the open space in front of the Tufan Formation, where it was noon, the scorching sun was in the sky, and the direct sunlight was shining brightly, and soon the coffin coated with phosphorus powder spontaneously combusted. And because the wood and interior of the coffin were soaked in oil beforehand, the fire quickly burned the coffin to the ground.

At this time, Tianci looked at Yuwen Haotian who was lying on the bed, stretched out his hand to untie the closed valve point on his body, and then he took out a small bag from his arms, opened it, and picked out two jet-black pills from it and held them in his hand, and after thinking about it, he took out another pill from the bag.

In the end, he handed over the three pills to Chen Gengsheng and asked him to immediately crush the three pills with water and give them to Yuwen Haotian to take.
