"Confessed?"

Jiang Baijian said in a deep voice: "Admit it!"

"General......" Xie San hurriedly said: "He has taken over important matters in the army, and after killing him, he will appoint another person to take the post, and it is inevitable that there will be omissions." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info If there is really an omission, what happened over there is not dozens of lives to talk about, and now the anger of the general alone is not the life of Zhao Xu. ”

When Jiang Baijian heard this, his face became more and more cold.

He thought quietly for a moment before looking at Zhao Xu with a cold gaze.

"You killed thirty-two people this time. ”

"On the battlefield, I want you to kill 320 enemies with your own hands and make atonement for your crimes. ”

"But now, the death penalty is forgiven, and the living sin is unforgivable. ”

Jiang Baijian stretched out his hand and said, "Beat him with thirty-two rods." ”

Xie San breathed a sigh of relief and shouted, "You haven't thanked the general yet?"

Zhao Xu knew that his life could be saved this time, but he was in a rather low mood, just bowed his head slightly, and arched his hand: "Thank you, General." ”

......

Thirty-two rods!

In the Jiang family's house, the army still uses the torture rod.

For ordinary people, playing 32 canes is already able to endanger their lives, some people may be killed, some people may be half-paralyzed, even if some people are slightly better, but they will inevitably lie on their stomachs for a long time, meditate and recuperate, but most of them will leave some disease roots afterwards.

But for Zhao Xu, who has great internal strength, it is only a punishment that is slightly easier to remember.

It's just that these more than 30 sticks, through Xie San, who also has internal strength, are heavier.

After the cane, for Zhao Xu, the injury is not light, at least ten days and a half months recently, and he must recuperate carefully.

"Don't blame the general. ”

Xie San supported Zhao Xu and said lightly: "Thirty-two lives, in exchange for thirty-two rods, you will naturally earn it...... Of course, your guilt has not passed, but only for you to be atoneted in the future. ”

Zhao Xu nodded slightly, and then said in a deep voice: "You beat me with thirty-five rods." ”

Xie San's expression was still the same, and he said, "Well, I made my own decision and beat a few more sticks." ”

Zhao Xu was silent for a moment and asked, "It's impossible for you to hit three more canes for no reason." ”

Xie San said: "Because I think you should fight." ”

Zhao Xu fell silent.

Xie San suddenly asked, "What do you think is wrong?"

Zhao Xu pondered for a moment and said: "It's enough to kill the first evil, you shouldn't kill and hurt the innocent." In addition, for the sake of a moment of enthusiasm, without investigation, he took matters into his own hands, resulting in the wrongful killing of others. ”

Xie San said calmly: "Just two points?"

Zhao Xu asked rhetorically, "What else?"

"You have trampled on the laws of Shu. ”

Xie San said in a deep voice: "As a member of the army, you could have used your identity to report this matter, but in the past ten years, you have not been able to change your habits and act recklessly. In the laws of Shu, there is a saying that chivalry is forbidden to violate martial arts, and this punishment is extremely heavy, even if you don't hurt the innocent this time, and you don't kill others by mistake, you have also violated the law. ”

When Zhao Xu heard this, he didn't reply.

Xie San continued: "There are no rules, you are still a person from Shu Kingdom, you can't violate this precept, otherwise, do you think you are an immortal who is beyond the world?"

Zhao Xu showed a deep groan, and said, "There are no rules, there is no circle...... I'll think about that. ”

Xie San nodded slightly and said: "In addition, you are a person under the general, and now the general's situation, you also know that he is struggling, and I am afraid that if you are not careful, you will fall into the hands of others." ”

"You have committed a great crime by acting this time, and if it is known, the general will inevitably have a crime of lax governance. ”

"And this sin, can be big or small, to say small, just be a little reprimanded by the emperor, if it is big, it is okay to demote the general to another level, and now the emperor is very displeased with the general, maybe it is really a big punishment, and the current post-general position will be demoted again. ”

"What's more, I didn't kill you now, once it is reported, there will inevitably be a crime of cover-up, and the punishment will definitely be heavier. ”

"In addition...... If this matter is spread to the people, your subordinates act recklessly, and the general shields sinners, and falls into the ears of those people who are already complaining about the defeat, it will inevitably be even more detrimental to the general's reputation. ”

"Since Ge Xiang, Shu has acted very heavily on the people, and the people's will is very easy to affect the affairs of the court, if the general really ends up with this reputation, it will be even more unfavorable in the future. ”

After a pause, Xie Sancai said: "So, in fact, after knowing about this, I advocated killing you." ”

Zhao Xu was stunned for a moment and looked towards Xie San.

I saw that Xie San's expression was still the same, unchanged, and said lightly: "But I pleaded for you, but I just saw what the general meant." Over the years, he has taken you very seriously, but in fact, he can't bear to kill you...... If I don't open my mouth, maybe he really wants to kill you, but in his heart, the general still wants me to open this mouth. ”

Zhao Xu paused for a moment and said in a low voice: "Thank you." ”

Xie San said: "Don't thank me, this is also the meaning of the general." In addition, what happened to you this time not only violated the precepts, but also hurt the innocent, and reminded the general of the incident back then, so I don't blame him for being so angry. ”

Zhao Xu muttered: "What happened back then?

Xie San said lightly: "During the arrest of this person, a figure named Tian Miao appeared, whose skills were unfathomable, and he taught us to lose a lot of manpower. ”

Zhao Xu said: "Tian Miao, I have vaguely heard of this person's reputation. ”

Xie San nodded and said: "He does have a chivalrous reputation in the martial arts, but now it seems that he should be a cultivator, not a martial artist." This person calls himself chivalrous, and also values those so-called sincere people, for that incident, he felt that the hero was a man who came out for people, and killed evil, although it affected the innocent, but he was also a chivalrous person, so he intervened to stop it...... Thinking about it, it was the second time in the general's life that he suffered a big loss. ”

Zhao Xu was silent for a moment.

Jiang Baijian was a general of the Liang State, but was later defeated by Ge Xiang, and was abandoned by the Liang State due to Ge Xiang's discord, and finally had no choice but to return to the Shu State.

It is rumored that this is the first time Jiang Baijian has suffered a big loss.

And before that, Ge Xiang encountered him for the first time, and was even calculated by him once, and it was precisely because Ge Xiang suffered a small loss that he had a heart of love for talent, and used a discord to draw Jiang Baijian from Liang State.

"Don't mention the past. ”

Xie San paused, took out an object, and said, "I will deal with the family you killed by mistake." And the other one who survived by luck has already ordered someone to arrest and bring him to justice, and as for the local magistrate, he has also been dismissed from his official position and put in prison, so the matter is over...... As for this thing, it is the jade bi that was forcibly seized by the outsider, and it is also the real reason why you committed this thing, but this thing has to be handed over to the national treasury, and now you have also taken a look, don't suffer dozens of rods in vain, kill dozens of people, and I don't know what this culprit looks like. ”

Between the words, Xie San had already helped Zhao Xu back to his residence, busy him for a while, and then gave a few more words of advice before leaving in a hurry.

There was silence in the room.

Zhao Xu lay on the bed, holding the wound medicine in his hand, his eyebrows lowered.

Suddenly, he glanced out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly saw that where Xie San had placed the jade bi before, there was suddenly a black talisman.

"Didn't Yubi let the third master take it away?"

Zhao Xu was stunned and said, "Why do you still have Zhang Fu?"

He frowned slightly, looked around, then took the quilt from the bed, shook it, and headed towards the table cover.

Internal strength works.

Put it away and put it away.

The quilt was thrown back.

And the black rune paper was no longer on the table.

The rune paper is wrapped in a quilt.

He reached for it.

The background color of the rune paper is pitch black, and the runes are pale white, which is quite different.

Zhao Xu looked at the black rune paper and was stunned.

"Isn't the rune paper all yellow paper as the base?"

Zhao Xu frowned slightly, and said to himself, "What is it?"

He shook his head slightly, unable to see the clue, so he threw it under the head of the bed and ignored it.

It's getting late outside.

The room grew dark.

"I should be able to barely get up and walk tomorrow. ”

Thinking like this, countless images flashed through his mind, and then he became a little tired and closed his eyes.

Zhao Xu, who was in pain and ashamed in his heart, gradually fell asleep.

Maybe this night, he'll have a nightmare.
