Chapter 184: Rational Choice

Wang Dasheng's "Evil Soul Palm" blocked Huang Ji's "Eighteen Palms of Dragon Descent", and Huang Ji slowly walked out of the wall, but Wang Dasheng's next behavior made Huang Ji stunned.

I saw a row of guards with knives standing behind Wang Dasheng, and in front of each guard stood a common man - they were the people who wanted to fight for Huang Ji just now, and at this time they were all stabbed by guards with knives around their necks.

Before Huang Ji could react, Wang Dasheng sneered and said: "Huang Ji, just arrest him, if you continue to resist arrest and don't return, I only need to give an order, and the blood will be sprinkled in Dongcheng here immediately!"

Looking at the sudden scene in front of him, Huang Ji's heart trembled, and the scene of killing Nangong Yong in the departure area on the day suddenly flashed in his mind, when Nangong Yong was also holding the people hostage, and Zuihou also killed the unarmed civilians in a frenzy...... Huang Ji knew that Wang Dasheng was ruthless, although he was the general of Bianliang, he said that whatever he wanted to do, no matter how big or small the consequences were, he would carry it out, sometimes even unscrupulous, never principled. Huang Ji didn't want to see the same bloody scene as when he left the area, so he didn't be tough this time, and asked Wang Dasheng calmly: "General Wang, the person you are looking for is me Huang Ji, what do you have to do with these unarmed ordinary people?"

Wang Dasheng smiled gloomily, and then said: "Hmph, the dignified 'Bianliang Doctor' is really what the people want...... Of course you don't know that just now when you resisted arrest and fought fiercely with the other two generals Wang in the courtyard, these Diao people actually rushed up to complain for you regardless of life or death...... Don't you know, if these people die under the knife today. The responsibility is all on you, Huang Ji—"

Wang Dasheng's words are not alarmist, if he wants to kill these ordinary people, he will not show mercy to anyone at all. And Huang Ji thought about it calmly. I feel that what Wang Dasheng said is not unreasonable, these people have always wanted to repay themselves, and when they were killed just now, they rushed in desperately. If they die because of this today, then all the responsibility lies on Huang Ji himself.

Thinking of this, Huang Ji's heart also calmed down a lot. But seeing that the people still had Miao knives around their necks, Huang Ji still didn't dare to take it lightly. So he first asked, "I don't know what General Wang wants to do?"

"It seems that you have calmed down this time...... Wang Dasheng sneered, "as long as you are ordered by the commander of the capital, you will obediently accompany us back to the county office." Admit your crime of killing Nangong, then I will let these civilians ......"

"No, Huang Gongzi!" Before Wang Dasheng could finish speaking, a man kneeling on the ground and being held by a knife shouted. "Nangong deserves to use him. You must not invite this unknown situation-"

However, before he could finish speaking, the soldier with the knife yelled at the people under the knife, and then kicked him hard in the back, knocking the man to the ground.

Huang Ji was afraid that the soldiers around who were holding hostages around would do anything excessive, so he immediately stopped him: "Okay, General Wang, this is what you said haode, as long as I accompany you back to the county office." You will let these people go. ”

"That's right, and you're going to admit guilt—" Wang Dasheng continued to say coldly.

Huang Ji closed his eyes and thought for a long time. Then he seemed to have figured it out, opened his eyes and said slowly: "Okay, I'll go back with you......" After speaking, Huang Ji's hands that had been tight finally relaxed, and the state of the whole person was already at his disposal.

"No, Huang Gongzi ......" "No, ......" "Huang Gongzi, you didn't do anything wrong, weishenme wants to be guilty......" The voices of ordinary people came from time to time behind him.

However, on Wang Dasheng's side, seeing that Huang Ji was no longer on guard, and the task arranged by the commander was completed, a hideous smile immediately appeared on his face. Wang Dasheng looked sideways, and then said to Huang Ji: "Since Huang Gongzi has been recruited, then without further ado, we will immediately escort Huang Ji back to the county office, but ...... Before I do that, I'm going to give you a little gift......"

As he spoke, Wang Dasheng turned his head and said to Yuan Chong, who was hidden in the group of soldiers behind him: "Lord Yuan, the prisoner Huang Ji has been brought, and now it's your turn to perform your duties-"

Yuan Chong had been standing faintly behind, and from the moment Wang Sansheng rushed into the Huang Clan's Pharmacy, Yuan Chong's heart had been entangled. Now that Huang Ji has stood in front of Wang Dasheng, and he has also "confessed" because of the things in front of him, now that Wang Dasheng has given an order to let him personally detain his former brother Huang Ji, he can't help but feel a pain in his heart.

Huang Ji looked sideways at Yuan Chong, and only smiled slightly. Maybe he had expected today's ending, but seeing that the person who escorted him personally was his former brother, Huang Ji's heart was also slightly more comforted. Although the current scene and the relationship between the two are the government and the "suspect", Huang Ji at this time can still look at his former friend and show an optimistic smile.

Yuan Chong carried the handcuffs used to take prisoners in his hands, followed by several personal guards. However, today's scene is the last thing Yuan Chong wants to see, his steps are very heavy, and there is infinite sadness in his heart, although the distance between himself and Huang Ji is only a short bluestone road, but Yuan Chong walked for a long time in a daze. He didn't dare to take a closer look at Huang Ji's face, after all, he was his former brother's best friend, and now he wanted to arrest his brother with his own hands, and there was a false accusation, Yuan Chong's heart was even more uncomfortable.

Wang Dasheng was naturally very aware of the relationship between Huang Ji and Yuan Chong, and seeing that Yuan Chong was walking so slowly, he naturally knew what Yuan Chong was thinking in his heart. However, seeing that the days of these two brothers together will not be too long, Wang Dasheng didn't care too much, after all, Yuan Chong's personal arrest of Huang Ji was also arranged by Wang Dasheng himself, and what he wanted to see most today was also as brothers with different identities - one is the county government of the government, and the other is a "prisoner" waiting to be detained, what kind of scene will happen.

Yuan Chong's speed has always been very slow, until now he has not come to Huang Ji Huang Ji, and Huang Ji's side, seeing Yuan Chong's hesitation in his heart, Huang Ji also knows very well in his heart that he is a brother. Yuan Chong sighed in his heart. So, Huang Ji was still very optimistic looking at Yuan Chong and smiled slightly, as if he silently accepted the reality of the next series of fates.

Finally. Yuan Chong walked in front of Huang Ji, the guards followed behind, and the hands holding the handcuffs were also trembling unnaturally.

"Don't hesitate, according to what General Wang said, escort me back......" Huang Ji looked at Yuan Chong's hesitant appearance and said with a smile.

"I don't know......" Yuan Chong lowered his face and shook his head slightly. Then he said, "I don't know, and I can't believe it." That's what you and I will do today...... weishenme, weishenme, will it be Brother Huang Ji who is on the stall of this matter?" It can be heard from Yuan Chong's tone that Yuan Chong does not want to accept such a reality.

"But that's still the case, isn't it?" Huang Ji said with still optimism, "I want to follow my father's teachings." Speak for the people. But after all, the power of one person was not able to defeat the Shili of the Nangong family and the Prime Minister's house...... However, a gentleman does not seek success or failure for things, but only seeks to be open in his heart, no matter whether he lives or dies, he knows reason and righteousness, so that he has a clear conscience. ”

"But isn't that too unfair to you?" Yuan Chong continued to bow his head and said, "You are solving problems for the people, but Zuihou has been attacked by the powerful Shili, and everyone's goal is on you alone. You have taken on such a big burden alone, but zuihou has ended up like this. It's so unfair to you......"

"I also said just now, the righteous thing will be accomplished, and I have a clear conscience......" Huang Ji added, then raised his hands, and lifted him in front of Yuan Chong in a handcuffed posture, and continued, "Although it has become a righteous thing, it is an undeniable fact that I have no right to kill Nangong without a position, and this is also the responsibility I should bear, and you, as the prefect of the county government, should also escort me back......"

Seeing Huang Ji raise his hand on his chest, Yuan Chong's handcuffed hands trembled even more. He wanted to handcuff Huang Ji up as Huang Ji said, but his shaking hands couldn't stop. Yuan Chong's brows were furrowed, and his teeth were clenched—he was still hesitating to take the framed brother back to the county government with his own hands, and he couldn't agree in his heart.

Huang Ji saw that he and Yuan Chong had been hesitant, and continued to say word by word: "You are my brother, I respect you very much, because you have always been an objective and selfless person. Now I have committed a crime as General Wang said, and I deserve to be escorted back to the county government by you. In front of the people, you can't bend the law for personal gain, can you? Hurry up and handcuff me and take me back to the county office, don't let me look down on you......" Huang Ji's tone was very serious, but his expression was smiling.

Yuan Chong's brows were so furrowed that he almost closed his eyes, and his eyes never raised to look at Huang Ji's side. Yuan Chong tried his best to stiffen his arm to prevent it from trembling, his eyes kept staring at Huang Ji's hands stretched out to him, and his hands were slowly raised...... Finally, Yuan Chong slowly raised his hand and Huang Ji's hand at the same height, and then after a long process, he finally handcuffed Huang Ji's hands.

Yuan Chong didn't say anything more, at this time, his heart was already mixed, and he still didn't look at Huang Ji. After handcuffing Huang Ji's hands, Yuan Chong turned around silently and quickly returned to his original position, waiting for Wang Dasheng's fate.

"Xiexie, you, Brother Yuan Chong......" Huang Ji looked at the back of Yuan Chong leaving, and muttered softly.

Wang Dasheng saw the scene he had always wanted to see, and a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

After Huang Ji was handcuffed, he turned to Wang Dasheng again, then straightened up and said, "Okay, General Wang, now that I have confessed to the crime of killing Nangong, and I am willing to go back to the county government with you, let it fall, you should be able to release the people here, right?"

Wang Dasheng saw that Huang Ji still had backbone, so he sneered and said: "Hmph, it seems that the dignified 'Bianliang Doctor' does have some backbone, and General Ben also appreciates it, although you may not live long...... Okay, as you wish, General Ben will let them go......"

So, Wang Dasheng made a gesture to the guards with knives behind him, and the guards with knives immediately withdrew the knives on the necks of the people.

Those civilians were saved, but seeing that Huang Ji sacrificed himself in exchange, he couldn't bear it, so he hurriedly said to Huang Ji: "Huang Gongzi, you can't ...... it"

"That's it, it's us who have tired you Huang Gongzi......" The people's cries slowly rose up in the crowd again.

"Folks—" Huang Ji was afraid that the people would be impulsive for a while, and they would do irrational things like just now, so he immediately shouted loudly. "I know that the villagers want to repay me. But it is a fact that I killed Nangong, and I, Huang Ji, do things alone. I don't want to implicate the villagers anymore. If the government of Bianliang really wants to do something to me, I don't care, but please don't try in vain anymore and go back quickly...... Today's grace is that I, Huang Ji, am ashamed of the villagers and involve the villagers. Whether I am alive or dead, the grace of this life. The next life will definitely be reciprocated!" Huang Ji finished speaking, and bowed deeply to the people in front of him.

When the surrounding people saw this, some of them wept one after another. Huang Ji is a "Bianliang doctor". Naturally, he is a household name and a person who has dealt with a lot of people, and he also knows Huang Ji's character. In addition, the people in the departure area knelt down at the door of Huang Ji's house that day, and Huang Ji refused the kindness of the people. This time the people didn't say anything more. Just quietly watched Huang Ji's figure before parting......

Wang Dasheng looked around and saw that the task had been completed, and Huang Ji had also caught it, so he ordered: "Summons, prepare to escort the prisoner Huang Ji back to the county office-"

However, at this time, Wang Ersheng and Wang Sansheng, who were injured by Huang Ji, suddenly walked over, walked in front of Huang Ji, and glared at Huang Ji angrily.

Huang Ji knows. The two generals were angry about being injured by themselves just now. Now his hands are handcuffed, and there is no way to fight back. It can only be "left to the slaughter". However, Huang Ji did not have any fearful expression, on the contrary, Huang Ji's expression was very calm, and his eyes looked at the fierce Wang Ersheng and Wang Sansheng in front of him very calmly, and seemed to accept this fateful arrangement very calmly.

Wang Sansheng was beaten by Huang Ji's "Eighteen Palms of the Dragon", and he was angry in his heart. He looked directly at the "helpless" Huang Ji with eyes like a leopard, and said viciously: "Okay, you, disciple of the beggar gang, you are very capable of fighting, right? I must let you repay it double!" After speaking, Wang Sansheng hit Huang Ji in the abdomen with a heavy fist.

Since Huang Ji had no power to fight back, in the face of this, Huang Ji just held his breath and concentrated, using his qi to resist Wang Sansheng's attack. However, Wang Sansheng's internal strength is deep, how can Huang Ji's qi block such a close boxing, only to see this time, Huang Ji suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood.

However, it didn't end, Wang Sansheng didn't seem to be angry, and hit Huang Ji in the abdomen with two consecutive punches, and scolded in his mouth: "Aren't you very good at fighting......?"

Every time Wang Sansheng hit, Huang Ji spat out a mouthful of blood, and gradually, the blood once again stained Huang Ji's white robe.

Seeing the defenseless Huang Ji being punched by Wang Sansheng, the people around him couldn't stand it anymore again, and they became a little agitated. However, this time Wang Dasheng was ready, and immediately ordered his guards to gather in a circle, holding long weapons to drive away the people who wanted to rush up.

The people were also helpless, they could only watch Huang Ji being punched by Wang Sansheng incessantly, and they were also so anxious in their hearts, not knowing what to do.

And Yuan Chong, who is Huang Ji's brother, looked at it on the side, and his heart was even more like a knife. He looked at Huang Ji who was beaten with bloodshot eyes, his two fists were clenched, and his green tendons burst out......

Wang Sansheng has been beating Huang Ji, and Huang Ji is constantly vomiting blood. Wang Sansheng didn't seem to be angry, and Wang Ersheng, who happened to be on the side, also wanted to avenge the injury he had just been injured by the "Eighteen Palms of the Descending Dragon", so he immediately punched and kicked Huang Ji, who had no power to fight back, with his third brother one after another.

The agitation of the surrounding people became louder and louder, but there was no real way to do it. Huang Ji decided that he would not let innocent people be involved again. Wang Ersheng and Wang Sansheng kept beating themselves, and Huang Ji kept vomiting blood. But Huang Ji still endured the pain all over his body, did not let out a single shout, and did not make any counterattack......

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, walking very slowly, and Huang Ji also felt the pain in his body continuously, and his consciousness gradually blurred, and the whole person was almost unstable.

Wang Dasheng saw Huang Ji being beaten, and just said coldly: "Hmph, if you want to fight against the people of the government in Bianliang City, no matter how high your martial arts are, this is the end ......."

Wang Ersheng and Wang Sansheng still did not stop beating, while Huang Ji gradually felt the weakness of his body, the pain was layer after layer, and Zuihou was so painful that he could no longer feel that someone around him was beating him - Huang Ji's body was completely numb, and soon, the noise of the surrounding people became more and more blurred, and Huang Ji's vision gradually disappeared......

Suddenly, the bent part of the knee was kicked heavily by Wang Ersheng, Huang Ji no longer had the consciousness to stand firmly, and knelt on one foot, Zuihou's whole person slowly fell to the ground and passed out...... (To be continued......)
