"You say I'm drunk?hehe, I'm really drunk......" He Yi sighed, then shook his head, and wanted to drink again, but the wine jug was already empty.

He raised his head and shook the wine jug lightly a few times, but when he didn't see any wine flowing out, he threw it aside, ignoring Pei Dong, and walked towards the city slowly.

"Everyone is drunk when they wake up, hahaha!! it's my sin!!" He Yi walked on the street, shouting loudly through the wine, as if laughing at himself.

"This drunkard, come on, take Vice General He back to rest first. Pei Dong was secretly anxious, He Yi was brought up by him, so he naturally had to care about He Yi's safety.

Moreover, since the last city defense battle, Pei Dong felt that He Yi was talented and could take on a heavy responsibility.

If he was arrested and executed by the county because of this, it would be a loss for the entire plain, just like Gongliangju who was expelled half a year ago.

He hurriedly ordered the left and right to take He Yi back first, but He Yi pushed him away, and shouted: "Get out of the way! I don't need to rest! Then General Zhao used his power for personal gain, and on the grounds of suppressing bandits, he brutalized my soldiers, if he didn't hang his head, how could he relieve the hatred in my heart!"

He Yi said, grabbed a soldier beside him, and shouted like a madman: "Come! Tell me, are you angry that your comrades died tragically?"

The soldier was taken aback by He Yi's actions, and hurriedly turned his head aside, just obediently closed his mouth and threw a look of help at Pei Dong.

"He Yi! You are drunk! Don't talk nonsense here!" Pei Dong's face was so ugly and ugly, he hurriedly dismissed the surrounding soldiers, pulled He Yi aside, and said in a deep voice: "Don't mention this matter again! If you don't say it, General Zhao's death can still be pushed to Li Rongzhai, otherwise the matter will reach the ears of the county Cheng, and you will have to be caught and beheaded!"

"Push it to the head of Lirong Village?" hehe......" He Yi glanced at him obliquely, his eyes seemed to be looking at a fool, and said: "Is this matter pushed off? Do you really think that General Zhao is taking us to attack Lirong Village? Do you really think that the county will not know about this?"

“......”

When Pei Dong heard this, he was silent for a while.

Obviously, he also thought of this.

The recruitment order was issued by the county Cheng, and General Zhao was also found by the county Cheng, whether he was going to attack Lirong Village, would the county Cheng himself not know?

He Yi opened Pei Dong's hand holding his shoulder, stared at him like this for a while, knowing in his heart that Pei Dong was thinking about himself, so he didn't say anything more.

But today, he was already determined to pierce this layer of window paper, so he could only sigh helplessly, and said: "General Pei, you don't care about this matter, I am easy to do things alone, if the county wants to arrest me to vent his anger, come and arrest me as soon as possible!"

"How can I not care?" Pei Dong was anxious and roared in a low voice: "No matter what, you shouldn't spread this matter! Do you know how much impact this matter will have on the army!"

He could guess the chain reaction that would follow.

No matter what the process is, it will eventually lead to the same result, and that is ————

From now on, there will be no new recruits in the plains!

"Are you blaming me?" He Yi glanced up at Pei Dong, and suddenly smiled, smiling sadly.

He pointed to General Zhao's corpse and said miserably: "He is the one who harmed the people's army, and he is also the one who cut off the trust between the army and the people." What does this have to do with me? I'm just telling the truth...... Or do you think that ordinary people don't have the right to know the truth? And then continue to be sent to die in the dry snow? But have you ever wondered what you would do if one day, it was you or your soldiers who were sent to die?"

He pointed at Pei Dong's nose and shouted hysterically: "You say, if this is on you, what will you do!"

He Yi experienced the same thing twice in a row.

The lesson of blood is not unprofound.

“......”

Pei Dong was speechless for a moment, sighed helplessly, and in the face of He Yi's questioning, he could only swallow a sigh of anger into his stomach.

He Yi's last sentence was right, no one wanted to be kept in the dark, and then lost his life in a daze.

The people, in particular, should not be fooled at will.

This matter, if it were him, I am afraid that it would be the same, or even more intense.

"The stakes are high, and in any case, it would be inappropriate for you to do so. Maybe you don't know yet, this General Zhao is not only the general of Huyang City, but also a disciple of the Qi Cultivation Sect, if this matter reaches the ears of the Qi Cultivation Sect, our entire Pingyuan County will suffer! Do you understand?" Pei Dong said.

"How stupid are you going to be, then General Zhao can't be a person who practices Qi Sect at all!" He Yi glanced at Pei Dong lightly.

The search target of the Qi Cultivation Sect has always been the Northern Wilderness Snow Plain, and a place like the Dry Snow Forest cannot enter the magic eye of the Qi Cultivation Sect.

As for General Zhao, he is obviously a "eater" or something like that recruited by the county, and the name of the general is just a pretense to deceive everyone.

He Yi's gaze swept over the faces of the soldiers around him one by one, and he suddenly felt a little disheartened.

He was not afraid that the soldiers would be afraid of the strength of the cultivators, because he himself was also afraid.

What he feared was that the soldiers were afraid of power and connived at evil deeds.

Because, they are soldiers.

Once this is done, the word of the army will become an ornament, and the last bit of trust between the army and the people will disappear and can no longer be repaired.

"That's it, I've already said it, if that Qi Cultivation Sect is really as you said, it will anger the people of the entire Plains County because of this matter, then tie me up and hand it over!" He Yiyi waved his hand happily, didn't bother to explain any more, and ignored him.

“......”

After entering the city, He Yi strode into an inn next to the city gate.

"Little Er, serve the wine!"

He kept banging on the table, and when the wine was fetched, he gulped it into his mouth.

There is nothing more disheartened than this.

He began to reminisce about what had happened.

From the moment he met the women in the border villages, the evil side of the cultivator had already begun to unfold and spread in his heart like a drop of ink falling into the water.

From the Northern Wilderness Snow Plains to torture and kill prisoners, to the dry snow forests as bait.

Two identical encounters, twice teased and deceived by cultivators, and twice almost took his life.

This trip to suppress bandits, from the beginning to the present, is full of suspicions, He Yi has always boasted of being wise, but he still did not see through the conspiracy of General Zhao, so that his soldiers died tragically in the wilderness.

This hit He Yi hard.

Originally, he wanted to reintegrate into the world through some non-extreme methods.

That's why he chose to join the army, chose to believe, and chose to obey General Zhao.

But I'm still too naïve......

On this day, from early morning to afternoon, He Yi couldn't remember how much wine he had drunk, he was groggy and lay on the desk, his body was anesthetized by alcohol, but his mind still retained some sanity.

Wake up and don't wake up, get drunk and don't get drunk.

Drink to eliminate sorrow, but sorrow is even more sorrowful.

He Yi took out the Demon Slaying Sword and put it in front of the table, gently stroked the deep runes on the sword's body, and sighed: "Demon Slayer, Demon Slayer, you may cut off my heart demon?"

A strange drunken man sleeps in a restaurant, and the people around him point fingers at him, but no one dares to ask why.

...... ......

Soon after, snowflakes gradually fell from the sky, and soon the entire plain county was rendered white.

Pei Dong went and returned, standing in front of the inn and watching, when he saw He Yi's wanton drunken appearance, his heart was also mixed.

He didn't know how to persuade He Yi, he just sighed in a low voice, silently paid for He Yi's wine, and left silently, telling the people around him not to disturb He Yi when he left.

Not long after, Gong Liangju entered the city with several people who had been dressed in disguise.

Beside him, Jia Shao followed closely, and the two of them looked hurried, as if they had extremely important things to do.

When passing by the inn, Jia Shao saw He Yi lying on the wine table, and he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable in his heart, and wanted to go in, but was stopped by Gongliangju with his hand.

"Don't bother him yet, he has to understand this matter himself. If you realize it, you will realize it, and if you can't realize it, the time has not come, and if it is imposed on him, it will only become his inner demon...... I, why wasn't I so confused before?cough, cough, cough......" Gongliangju said, and suddenly there was a violent cough.

"Mr. Gongliang, what's wrong with you?" Jia Shao asked with concern.

"It's okay, it's already an old problem...... Let's go, this matter must not be delayed. ”

After Gongliangju finished speaking, he pulled Jia Shao into an alley, found a vermilion courtyard door, and knocked lightly a few times.

After a while, the courtyard gate was opened from the inside, and the people inside seemed to be very cautious, and only after seeing the appearance of Gongliangju and Jia Shao did they open the door.

"Mr. Gongliang, Xiao Shao, come in. The man looked grim and made a gesture of please.

When the two entered the hospital, the man closed the door of the hospital again, and asked anxiously: "Dare to ask sir, has my Wu'er's condition improved?"

This is the famous "Fan Butcher" in Pingyuan County, and the Wu'er in his mouth is Fan Wu who is parasitized by the seven-colored flower species.

Gongliangju sighed softly and said, "Fan Wu's life can be regarded as being saved for the time being, but I am afraid that that arm will not be protected, I have done our best, and I ask Fan Yishi not to blame." ”

The rhizome in the seven-colored flower had already spread to Fan Wu's entire arm, and it was impossible to heal at all, so the entire arm could only be cut off to prevent the flower roots from continuing to extend.

"Good, good, it's good to be able to save a life, as long as you live. Hearing that his son would lose an arm and be disabled for life, Fan Tuhu's voice was choked, his fists were clenched tightly, a touch of hatred flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "I let Wu'er join the army, my original intention is to sacrifice my life for the people, if it is really a battle to die on the battlefield, it would be fine, but that county Cheng privately colluded with the cultivators to come here to harm the army and the people, he is not benevolent, but Hugh blames us for being unjust!"

Gongliangju shook his head and said, "You can't say that. Killing evil officials and restoring stability to one side is a righteous act, how can it be said to be unjust?"

"What Mr. Gongliang said is right! Early this morning, I have already spread the news about this matter, and in this five-mile county, everyone will be in danger in less than a day's work, and the morale of the army and the people will be weakened, and they will only wait for the action of Li Rongzhai. Fan Butcher said very approvingly.

"Li Rongzhai doesn't listen to me, I'm afraid this matter will depend on us. Gongliang Ju sighed silently, and secretly scolded the owner of the village of Lirong in his heart for being short-sighted and really a mediocre master.

He had persuaded several owners of Lirong Village before, saying that attacking the city at this time was the best and last chance.

But the other party just blamed Gongliangju for the burning of the grain, grass and ordnance in the village.

At the beginning, Gongliang Ju was driven out of Pingyuan County by the county because he refused to do things for the Qi Sect, and he had nowhere to stay, if it wasn't for his friend Su Qian's strong invitation, how could he succumb to the Li Rong Village?

Serving such a mediocre lord really wronged himself.

Recalling his friend Su Qian, Gongliangju felt worthless for his death in the bottom of his heart.

However, Na Pingyuan County dared to collude with the cultivators and brutalize the soldiers and civilians, which was tantamount to digging his own grave, and in the early morning, He Yi hung General Zhao's body outside the city and told what he had experienced, which was equivalent to sitting on the matter.

The people's hearts are in turmoil, taking the current situation as an example, even if Li Rongzhai does not make a move, they may not have the slightest chance.

"Let's split up, so and so......" Gongliang Ju called Fan Butcher and Jia Shao together, whispered in his ear, and arranged the action.

While discussing countermeasures, there was a sudden knock at the gate of the courtyard.

Fan Butcher walked to open the door, and saw a young man dressed as a servant of the county government running in, and said urgently: "Oh no, no, no, the recruitment order has been posted outside, no, it is not a recruitment, but a forced conscription order! This time it is even more Bengali, and it is enough to forcibly recruit 500 people! Also, General He of the recruitment camp was arrested by the county and put in prison!"

"What?!"

When Gongliangju and Jia Shao heard this, they were shocked.
