A Piece of Li Song Changting Twilight

Zong Zan ordered someone to beat Qin Xiaolou again, Qin Xiaolou fainted again within two lashes, Jin Bing poured cold water on his face, but he couldn't wake up.

In fact, Qin Xiaolou didn't completely lose consciousness, he seemed to be out of his body, feeling light and light, he couldn't feel any physical pain, but his thoughts were as clear as ever.He really couldn't keep his eyes open, and moving his fingers could consume all his energy.He felt that this time probably he was really going to die.

He suddenly felt a little regretful. He knew that he would be captured by Jin Bing and would be of no use to Mu Jun. He might as well have had the cheek to ask Zhao Pingzhen to return to Lin'an to visit Qin Chengxue.I don't know how Qin Chengxue is doing, has he recovered from his illness?If he died this time, the money left behind would still be enough for Cheng Xuehua's life.However, Cheng Xue is so innocent, what should she do if she is deceived?If he meets a gentle and good girl, it will be his luck; if he meets someone as frivolous as Han Xuzhi, it will be his calamity.

Seeing that he was still awake, Zong Zan ordered someone to bring a basin of salt water and poured it on the wound on his body.Qin Xiaolou knew that his body was twitching, but it seemed that it was just the reaction of the body itself, but it had nothing to do with him, because he didn't feel any pain at all.

Zong Zan made a difficult mistake this time.

He never intended to kill Qin Xiaolou from the very beginning, because if Qin Xiaolou was willing to surrender, he would be better off alive; if Qin Xiaolou would rather die than surrender, and died at his hands, he didn't know how to explain to the other generals What's more, he didn't ask what he said, but others may not believe him; as long as Qin Xiaolou is alive, even if he can't ask anything, he said the righteousness of what he said, saying that he cut it first and played it later. Yan Zhao can't make things difficult for him.

But looking at Qin Xiaolou like this, it seemed that he would die here if he didn't treat his injuries quickly.After letting him go, Zongzan was not reconciled, he didn't ask anything and didn't say anything, even the iron, bamboo sticks, hooks and other insidious instruments of torture have yet to be used!

While Zongzan was hesitating, he suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps outside the tent.He was taken aback, he didn't even have time to think, a group of people broke in so viciously.

"Zongzan! What are you doing!"

Qin Xiaolou suddenly heard the angry roar of a man speaking Jurchen language.The voice was vaguely familiar, it should be a certain general of the Jinren, but it was not Wan Yanzhao.Later, he didn't quite understand the dispute between the two, he only knew that someone had untied the restraints on his body and carefully hugged him.

He knew he was saved.

When Qin Xiaolou woke up again, the first thing he saw was Wan Yanzhao's face.

The anger on Wan Yanzhao's face did not fade away, seeing him open his eyes, there was a look of surprise for a moment, but it was immediately replaced by hidden worry: "You finally woke up!"

Qin Xiaolou tried to move his body, but new injuries piled up with old ones, and even a slight movement of his fingers would involve severe pain all over his body.

Seeing his frown, Wan Yanzhao hastily stretched out his hand to him, as if to comfort him.However, he didn't know where to put his hand, he hesitated for a moment, and then put it down.

Wan Yanzhao called for a military doctor to diagnose and treat Qin Xiaolou, and he was sure that Qin Xiaolou was out of danger, and he was very upset that he was about to let go of his breath.He sent away all the other pawns in the tent, leaving only himself and Qin Xiaolou.He sat down beside Qin Xiaolou's couch, assuming a long talk.

To Qin Xiaolou's surprise, his first question was: "Who is Han Xuzhi?"

Qin Xiaolou froze for a moment, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated—could it be Han Xuzhi who came to save him?With Han Xuzhi's kung fu, it might not be impossible to break into the Jinren's camp alone.

But the next moment Wanyan Zhao poured cold water on him: "You called his name in your dream."

Qin Xiaolou's expression froze for a moment, and then changed into a self-deprecating expression - how unpromising is he, and after so many years, he still remembers that frivolous prodigal son?

Wan Yanzhao continued: "Cheng Xue is your younger brother, right? You also called him several times. Zhenqing is your King Rui's name? You call this name the most, I'm getting tired of hearing it."

Qin Xiaolou's heart changed rapidly, and he didn't hold back a word for a long time.

Wan Yanzhao smiled, and quickly changed the subject: "Your bones are hard, and after being beaten like this, you kept saying that the nation is righteous. It's a pity that you really didn't get beaten, and you fainted for four days after eating a whip."

Qin Xiaolou was startled, and immediately understood that Zong Zan had distorted the facts to Wan Yanzhao.Wan Yanzhao's polite words, "the righteousness of the nation", I'm afraid Zong Zan said something even worse in front of him, it must be how he insulted Da Jin and praised Da Mu.

Seeing that he didn't refute, Wan Yanzhao sighed with a wry smile, "Surrender—you've already betrayed everyone, and your Zhao Zhenqing has long since abandoned you."

Qin Xiaolou still didn't answer.

Wan Yanzhao stood up, turned his back to him and put his hands behind his back. His tone became cold: "Qin Xiaolou, you have no choice. I cherish your talent. If you surrender to me, I will protect your life. If you It is a rotten wood that cannot be carved - after ten days, I will use your head to sacrifice the flag."

Qin Xiaolou knew that Wan Yanzhao's attitude would change so quickly, it must be because other generals of Jin Kingdom put pressure on the prince while he was in a coma.

drop?In order to survive, it's not that this idea has never appeared in Qin Xiaolou's mind.But what about after the drop?Qin Chengxue who stayed in Lin'an will definitely be executed by Zhao Shi, and this is something he would rather die than see.What's more, after being demoted, is he really allowed to work for the Jinren for the rest of his life?This was too much against his will, and it was something he would rather die than do.

Expedient measure, false surrender?Not to mention whether he has the ability to fight wits and bravery with the golden man and finally get back to his homeland safely. If he surrenders falsely, Qin Chengxue will also be in danger.

Only if he would rather die than surrender, maybe he will be executed by the golden man, at least he can leave a good name behind him, and Qin Chengxue will definitely be treated kindly by the Zhao family; if he is lucky enough to survive, he will be greatly praised when he returns to his homeland , career will be smoother.

From the perspective of long-term interests, this deal cannot be lowered no matter what!

Qin Xiaolou smiled slightly, and said weakly: "I have something to ask."

Wan Yanzhao raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Say it."

Qin Xiaolou said: "After I die, can you return my body to Damu? Just give it to His Royal Highness King Rui, and ask him not to give it to my younger brother." If Qin Chengxue sees her body, she will probably be shocked. Suicide.If he can die without seeing his body, give him hope, maybe he will survive.

He is also the prince of Feng Wang, he talks about His Excellency to Wan Yanzhao, but he will always be His Highness when he talks about Zhao Pingzhen.

Wan Yanzhao frowned fiercely, turned around and walked towards the exit of the tent. After walking two steps, he turned back and said, "I respect you as a sage, don't worry, I will respect you Willing -- but, there are still ten days, I hope you can think about it again." Xuanyin Qin Xiaolou simply closed his eyes and stopped talking to him.

In the following days, Wan Yanzhao would come to him to play chess every day.Qin Xiaolou thought that his life was not long, and he would make money by playing more games of chess, so he accepted all the orders, and then mercilessly killed Wanyan Zhao.However, what makes Qin Xiaolou wish to kick Wan Yanzhao's mouth crookedly is that the prince will tirelessly ask him if he is willing to change his original intention after playing chess every day.

On the eighth day, at this hour, Qin Xiaolou, who was lying on the bed, heard footsteps behind him, suddenly got up from the bed, and grinned at the man because of the torn wound: "If you dare to ask again... "

Before the words fell, Qin Xiaolou, who saw the person coming, was stunned.

The person who came was Zong Gan, the general of the Kingdom of Jin. He had led troops to fight against the Mu army several times. Qin Xiaolou's impression of him was that he was a man of great success.

Seeing Zonggan, Qin Xiaolou's first reaction was that his flesh and blood would suffer again.However, Zong Gan stood three or five steps away from him and did not approach him. He only brought a soldier with a figure similar to Qin Xiaolou by his side, and he didn't seem to intend to hurt anyone.

"Qin Xiaolou." He called out Qin Xiaolou's name in Chinese with no expression on his face.

Qin Xiaolou couldn't help being surprised when he heard his voice, because he was lynched and tortured by Zong Zan a few days ago, and it was the owner of this voice who rescued him.However, thinking that Zong Gan is Wan Yanzhao's person, he doesn't think there is anything worth thinking about.

Qin Xiaolou said: "Are you here to persuade Wanyan Zhao to surrender, or to play chess for him?"

Zong Qian shook his head slowly.His eyes were full of doubts, and his Chinese was even more fluent than Wan Yanzhao: "You really didn't surrender?"

Qin Xiaolou felt puzzled: "What?"

Zong Gan looked at Qin Xiaolou with sharp eyes, but he didn't see any clues from Qin Xiaolou's expression.He sighed for no reason, and said in a low voice, "I'm here to save you."

Qin Xiaolou was completely confused by him.

Zong Gan handed him a set of gold soldiers' uniforms and said, "Don't ask why, just put on immediately."

To Qin Xiaolou, this news was undoubtedly like a gold ingot falling from the sky, and he was stunned for a moment.

He changed into the clothes of the Jinbing soldier, and the soldier brought by Zong Qian changed into the prison uniform of Qin Xiaolou, and lay back on the bed instead of him.After a while, there were regular aggressive beating sounds outside the tent.Zong Gan stood up suddenly, took Qin Xiaolou's hand and walked out: "Go!"

Qin Xiaolou's body was shattered. Being dragged by him, coupled with the large-scale movement, he immediately fell to the ground in pain, and almost fainted from the pain again.

Zong Gan was taken aback, and quickly helped him up: "Are you okay?"

Qin Xiaolou's face was as pale as paper, he gritted his teeth and nodded.

Zong Gan said: "I can't carry you on my back, you have to go by yourself, don't be too noticeable. Move quickly."

Qin Xiaolou gritted his teeth and stood up, followed Zonggan out of the tent.The guards outside the tent were sent some distance away, and in addition to the lack of light at night, no one could see the clue.

Zong Gan said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Follow me closely, we only have a stick of incense time."

Qin Xiaolou felt that many of the wounds on his body must have been cracked, and he could even feel that his clothes were soaked in blood and stuck to his body.However, his footsteps were firm, without a single flaw.

Zong Gan led him out of the camp on a road that was not patrolled by soldiers. There were two horses parked outside the camp, and there were several golden guards around the horses.Zong Gan winked, and Qin Xiaolou immediately got on his horse knowingly.Zong Gan exchanged a few words with several guards in Jurchen language, then got on another horse, and the two of them galloped to the southwest without haste.

However, the two of them didn't ride very far, and they heard some commotion in Jin Jun's tent from a distance.The two felt guilty, and immediately slapped the horse's butt, and fled to the southwest like a madman.

Qin Xiaolou's injuries all over his body made his life feel worse than death. He could even feel the blood splattering behind him like pearls with broken strings.However, he just gritted his teeth and didn't even utter a cry of pain - he finally saw the hope of life, so why can't he bear this pain?

After riding for a while, the two came out of Jinren's sight.Zong Gan suddenly heard a loud noise behind him, turned his head and saw that it was Qin Xiaolou rolling off his horse!He was taken aback, and quickly jumped off the horse to help Qin Xiaolou up, but he saw that Qin Xiaolou's face was like gold paper, and he couldn't help shaking.When he touched Qin Xiaolou's back with his hand, he realized that Qin Xiaolou's back was already drenched in blood.

This fell Qin Xiaolou hard enough that it took him a long time to catch his breath.Fortunately, he had slowed down the horse's speed to a very low level before he realized that he couldn't do it, otherwise he would have suffered a bloody head if he fell down.

Seeing that the pursuers behind him were not in a hurry, Zong Gan picked him up on his horse and led him to continue running southward.

It was only at this time that Qin Xiaolou realized that the whip that Zong praised him was really nothing, because at that time there was still a period of time to relax after being beaten, and if he pretended to be dizzy, he could relax a little longer.But right now the wounds all over his body were hurting, and the horse was shaking his whole body like it was falling apart. The pain was unbearable every moment, but he had to bear it, because he couldn't stop.

Wan Yanzhao's base camp is more than ten miles away from the river bank, and Zong Gan has to avoid other camps of the Jin army along the way, so he must take a detour, and he will not be able to reach the river bank in half an hour.Qin Xiaolou in his arms looked like he was about to lose consciousness at any time, but he couldn't stop to heal his injuries, so he could only provide some encouragement for him verbally.

Qin Xiaolou's body became colder and colder.I don't know if it's because of too much blood flow, but he feels his body is getting lighter, and there seems to be something in his body that wants to rush out of this body and float to the sky, and his will is gradually pulled away.

Zong Gan's voice lingered in his ears: "I was sent to the Kingdom of Jin when I was 15 years old. I started a family in the Kingdom of Jin. My wife, two sons, and one daughter were all in the Kingdom of Jin, under the hands of Wan Yanzhao. I It's 30 years old this year."

Qin Xiaolou tried his best to cheer up and listen to him.At this moment, his mind was a little dull, so he asked, "Why did you come to save me yourself?"

Zong Qian said coldly: "Who do you think you are? If it was so easy to get in touch with you, I would have put you back as early as the first day. Originally, I had already deployed almost everything. You can escape again, but who knew that idiot Zong Zan would take you away privately, which made Wan Yanzhao's guard on you even tighter. Without sacrificing 'Zong Gan', you can't be rescued at all."

Qin Xiaolou nodded dully.

Zong Gan said again: "My name is Tang Jing."

Qin Xiaolou nodded again: "Tang Jing." Only then did he understand why the battle went so smoothly this time.Zhao Pingzhen would often provide him with some secrets about the Jin Army. Qin Xiaolou knew that there must be a secret work of Da Mu in the Jin Army, but he really didn't guess who the secret work was without this encounter.

After a while, Qin Xiaolou staggered in Tang Jing's arms, apparently fainted.

Tang actually shouted nervously in his ear: "Qin Xiaolou! Qin Xiaolou!"

Qin Xiaolou responded inaudibly.

Tang Jingdao: "King Rui gave me an order that I must save you, I disobeyed twice, but he gave me three death orders within three days, saying that even if I sacrificed 'Zonggan', I must rescue you back. Do you know how many lives 'Zong Gan' took?"

Qin Xiaolou tried his best to lift his eyelids, glanced at him blankly, and couldn't hold back and closed them again.

Tang Jing pursed his lips and said, "Thousands. Not thousands of Jin people, but tens of thousands of Damu people! You know how many lives were used to make the achievements of 'Zonggan' Do you know how I climbed to Wan Yanzhao’s side in the past 15 years? I sacrificed the lives of tens of thousands of Mu people in order to save a hundred times and a thousand times more Mu people! But now I have only saved one you!” He spoke so hard that he felt like he was gnashing his teeth: "Qin Xiaolou, do you think your life is worth thousands of lives?"

Qin Xiaolou still closed his eyes and didn't respond for a while.Tang Jing already felt a little hopeless in his heart, but Qin Xiaolou suddenly uttered two words very slowly but firmly——

"worth."
