Chapter 376: Until Destruction
Twilight is blank.
The remnant sun is like blood, and the heaven and earth are the same color.
Before sunset, a line of lone geese flapped their wings, and the long shadow showed a bit of loneliness.
In the pickaxe capital, a group of cavalry under the banner of "Yang" escorted Zhaohu and others to the execution ground from outside the pickaxe capital.
"Get out of here!"
"When you see the flag of the Yang family, don't give way!"
"Are you impatient?"
Someone in the line shouted loudly all the way. The one who shouted the most fiercely was none other than Yang Yi's lieutenant, today's supervisor and beheader.
The procession of prisoners passed through the streets, and the onlookers along the way gave way to the team under the banner of Yang Zi, but none of them turned their noses up at the "anti-thief" call. On the contrary, the people cast sympathetic glances at Zhaohu, and even wanted to rush over to help Zhaohu break the shackles and rebel with him.
As the long procession of prisoners rushed to the execution ground, a sense of panic enveloped the city of Pickaxe.
The lieutenants around Zhaohu hung their heads one by one, and sighed lamentingly:
"Alas, what's going on in this world......"
"Since the abolition of Shen, the abolition of teaching, and the establishment of praise, the Son of Heaven seems to have lost his mind and gone crazy, and he is idle all day long, not knowing what he is busy with. ”
"The front hall was abolished in the early dynasty, and most of the time, Ji Gongyan only summoned Yu Shifu, Yang Shun and others, and ignored Li Hongxi and others. ”
"Alas, now that the veteran general Zhaohu and the old minister Xi Bojifu have all been eradicated by Father Yushi, presumably the next one to encounter is General Li. ”
The prison officer was annoyed when he heard this, and put the tip of his gun against Zhaohu's back: "You traitor who colluded with the thief! If you dare to talk nonsense, Lao Tzu will stab you now!"
When the generals saw his fierce face, they stopped saying a word one by one.
At this time, Yu Han was sitting in a restaurant on the side of the street, drinking with six dusty women, and saw a few prisoners passing by from a distance, and soon found Zhaohu!
Yu Han was stunned suddenly, immediately put down the wine glass, jumped down directly from the restaurant, landed in front of the adjutant general, and asked, "What did General Zhao commit?"
"Lord Huiyu, summon the tiger to flee from the battle, collaborate with the enemy and treason, and his crime should be punished! For the sake of the law and discipline, the Son of Heaven will play the role of the Emperor, Ling Chi will summon the tiger, exterminate his entire family, confiscate all the family property, hand it over to the treasury, and the mansion will reward the Yu family!" The deputy general smiled flatteringly at Yu Han, and arched his hand and said: "Lord Yu, congratulations to the last general!"
Receiving the reward of the Son of Heaven should have been a great joy, but Yu Han couldn't laugh at all, after all, Zhaohu has always treated Yu Han well, and when he was in Kunlun Mountain, although he saw that Yu Han and Su Ji were conspiring, he did not expose it on the spot.
Yu Han followed the prisoners all the way and shouted at Zhaohu's back: "Tell me, what the hell is going on?"
Zhaohu has always said nothing, and he is proud of his achievements on weekdays, although he is not showing off his might, but he has never taken anyone seriously. At this time, he was reduced to a prisoner, knowing that his life was cut off, and he was already as dead as ashes, but he could not remember when he gave the order to withdraw his troops.
At this time, on the eaves near the execution ground, a golden fox was lying on its stomach.
Next to him, a strange man with a blue face and fangs stood behind, it was Gao Xiu, the national teacher of Baoguo.
The golden fox was silent for a long time, letting the wind blow her golden fur.
Gao Xiu saw that she was in a very bad mood and asked, "Since Yunmengshan came back, you seem to have been on your mind. ”
The golden fox said: "Hmph, I really shouldn't help him out of the siege at the Star Picking Platform." He forgot about me, ignored me, ignored me!"
Gao Xiu's eyes flowed, and he noticed the "he" and "she" that Bao Xi said, and after thinking about it, "he" must be most likely Su Ji, so who is she? .
The golden fox replied angrily: "He only cares about taking care of the woman surnamed Mu." I really don't understand, how is she better than me?"
Gao Xiu said: "Since the Flower Tasting Conference, he entrusted you to Yu Han, and he told him to be sure to protect you. It can be seen that he cares about your safety very much. ”
"I know he cares about me, but I also know that he's blaming me. He must have thought that his father's death had something to do with me. ”
Gao Xiu said: "Xi Bo Jifu was eliminated by the people invited by Yang Wei, which has nothing to do with Niangniang. ”
Bao Xi said: "Don't think I don't know, if you hadn't spread the rumors, Xi Bojifu wouldn't have died!"
At this time, Yu Han watched Zhaohu being sent to the execution table. However, he still didn't know that his father, Yu Shi's father, rushed to Zhaohu to return to the city, and before Zhaohu returned to the city, he played the Son of Heaven overnight, and took the opportunity to add a charge to Zhaohu for betraying the fox master.
"The hour has come, execution!"
As the leader of the guards shouted, several executioner-looking people suddenly walked up to the stage, carrying palm-wide machetes in their hands.
The adjutant shouted an order, and the executioners raised their machetes one by one.
The dignified veteran summoned the tiger, but now he is being tied up and slaughtered like a pig!
Yu Han's eyes widened, and he wanted to save it, but he knew that if he did this, the next time he was beheaded there would be his father and himself.
The people couldn't bear to look at it directly, so they lowered their heads one after another, quietly waiting for the knife to fall.
However, at the moment when the big knife slashed at Zhaohu's neck, he heard a roar,
A sword more than a foot long slashed through the air and slashed at the stone platform. Before the executioners had time to react, they were cut in half by the earth-shattering sword.
Strangely, there was not a single blood spilled.
Suddenly, two strange people dressed in red fell from the sky.
Yu Han looked intently and saw two strange people, one with two heads and the other with four arms, who were the two-headed god general and the four-armed gambler.
The people shouted "monsters" and dispersed.
The lieutenant smiled slightly. He raised his hand and motioned for everyone not to hinder him.
With a wave of his hand, twenty guards jumped onto the platform, each holding a weapon in his hand, and waited for him.
Two monsters rushed to the high platform of execution with knives and came to Zhaohu's left and right.
The two-headed god will cut the shackles of Zhaohu with a knife, and said anxiously: "General Zhaohu, Shen Hou sent us to save you!"
The four-armed gambler tore off the chains of the tiger's ankles and shouted: "The Son of Heaven is mediocre, it is better to follow me to intercept the brothers, do the right thing for heaven, and overthrow the tyranny!"
Zhaohu was silent and slowly stretched out a hand.
The two-headed god general and the four-armed gambler glanced at each other, presumably Zhaohu had agreed to cooperate, and happily put a knife in his hand.
"Thank you. ”
Zhaohu gripped the hilt of the knife tightly and slowly moved it to his neck.
Summoning the tiger resolutely said: "Summoning the tiger would rather die than commit treason!"
After that, Zhaohu wiped his neck with a knife.
The adjutant general smiled slightly, glanced to the side, and a herald hurried straight to the palace of the king of Hojing.
"What a silly ......"
Looking at the summoned tiger who fell in a pool of blood, the golden fox said coldly.
Gao Xiu said: "If Zhaohu wanted to escape, he would have run away a long time ago." The Son of Heaven is like the sun, no matter how hot it is, there will always be people who are willing to follow him until destruction. ”
The herald went straight to the Son of Heaven's dormitory, only to see a chessboard on the table inside.
Ji Gongyan and Yang sat on the ground and played chess. Ji Gong Yan holds the white son, while Yang Cheng holds the black child.
The herald played: "Your Excellency, summoning the tiger to commit suicide in fear of sin." ”
Ji Gongyu held a chess piece in his hand and was undecided.
Yang Wei said: "Your Excellency knows. You step back first."
The adjutant general still refused to leave, and continued: "The last general still has something to do!"
Ji Gongyan still didn't say a word.
Yang reversed: "Say it." ”
The deputy general said: "At the foot of Yunmeng Mountain outside the Song City, there are a large number of anti-thieves gathering, and they are bound to plot against each other. ”
Ji Gongyan dropped a son and ordered: "General Yang, it seems that I am going to bother you again." ”
Yang Shunxin comprehended: "The last general will invite the Peacock King on the same day to send a song to the army." ”
