Daily note

Kong Zhigao had been paying attention to that exile named Fang Jibei for a long time.

In fact, it won't be particularly long.He seems to be a newcomer, usually in different prisoner camps, but this time he went to southern Xinjiang and assigned him to Kong Zhigao's team, and the two of them were considered to have contacted each other.

In fact, exiles like them should not have left Dawei.But Yingzhou City Guard needs it, and places like Southern Xinjiang will never allow Dawei's people to mix in, so the Fan City Guard is relieved.

Counting this time, Kong Zhigao has been in and out of southern Xinjiang for the fourth time.It was the first time for Fang Jibei.

but……

"Xiaojie, don't go here."

Fang Jibei held back the only 20-year-old boy among the 15 people.

In fact, Fang Jibei is only three or four years older than him, and he is the second youngest in the team.But he is physically strong and he is said to be good at martial arts. Along the way, he is taking care of others.

Kong Zhigao didn't need him to take care of him, so he just observed him silently and raised his eyebrows.

——It stands to reason that this is his first time here, so he shouldn't know the terrain in this area, why has he always avoided dangerous places?Had someone told him, or was there some other reason?

Seeing that he entered the forest, Kong Zhigao knew it would be an extremely hard journey, and he began to calculate how many of these people would die, and how many of them would finally get out of the forest to the southern border and return safely.

In his eyes, half of these people are already dead.

There is a large mountain forest between Nanjiang and Dawei, and the forest is full of poisonous miasma all the year round, making it extremely difficult to cross.

And usually no one would want to go through the woods.People in southern Xinjiang are hostile to Dawei, and Dawei people will not want to go to southern Xinjiang.Although Dawei's tea porcelain can be sold at a good price in southern Xinjiang, the jade and medicinal herbs in southern Xinjiang are also needed by Dawei.

So there is a kind of behavior called smuggling.There are many exiled prisoners in Yingzhou, so it doesn't matter if a few die.

Miasma, poisonous insects, beasts.These are actually just minor problems, and the real danger is when you go to a place where there are no wild beasts.

The group of people brought the herbal medicine to avoid poison, and they can still resist miasma poison.However, animals living in the jungle have limited abilities. When you go to the deep forest area, you can't see animals at all. Even the grass and trees are dead branches with no leaves.

Because they brought too many smuggled items, they couldn't bring much dry food, they could only bring barely enough to eat-barely enough to eat, if they could get out of the forest smoothly.

This is of course impossible.

Fang Jibei looked at Xiaojie who had no strength to walk, and stretched out his hand to help him: "Persevere, I will find some food at night, and I will definitely find some."

Here, only creatures with super vitality can survive, such as mice and cockroaches.Although I feel nauseous after eating, people can bear anything in order to survive.

Even so, those with poor physique have already begun to fail.Several people began to fall behind, and even fell into a coma.

Kong Zhigao looked at him coldly.

I have already reminded them to bring more food and eat sparingly, but they did not listen.At this point, who else can you count on?Although he has surplus food, he will not give it to them.

Of course your own life is the most important.

Going on like this, after a few days, even those who are a little stronger will be dead.

It will take at least three days for them to get out of the woods, but how to survive these three days is a great problem when their physical strength is already at the peak and food is almost gone.

Fang Jibei felt that the eyes of these people were getting weirder and weirder.He walked with Xiaojie and tried to help him.But other people have already started to look at Xiaojie with strange eyes.That gaze is desire.

appetite.

After dark, Fang Jibei placed Xiaojie under a tree, told him not to move around, and left to find food.

As soon as possible, try to find a portion that can be eaten by these people.Xiaojie was dying. How could he watch such a small and fragile child die?

Kong Zhigao looked at his back and frowned slightly.

Even if they know martial arts, so what, mother-in-law and mother-in-law are really not the ones who can do things.

While he was thinking, several of his companions had already stood up and walked to Xiaojie's side.

Kong Zhigao glanced at them and sneered.

Take advantage of Fang Jibei's absence and hurry up, right?With a beginning, the rest is much easier, isn't it?

What a bunch of worthless people.

The hand rises and the knife falls, the blood shines, and the fragrance.

When Fang Jibei came back, he saw such a scene.Everyone sat in a circle, and before the meat was cooked, they couldn't wait to stuff it into their mouths, and even fought over a piece of meat.

Only Kong Zhigao sat aside, watching all this coldly, while observing Fang Jibei carefully.

Fang Jibei was stunned, with a very strange expression on his face, so strange that Kong Zhigao couldn't understand it.

He thought that a reckless man like Fang Jibei would get angry, rush up and chop a few people, and...

But he did nothing.

He even smiled, threw the corpse of an unknown animal in his hand on the ground, and then walked aside.He lowered his body, but was vomiting.

But he couldn't spit out anything, and he distributed almost all the food he found in the past few days to others.

The only thing left was acid water. After vomiting for a long time, Fang Jibei stood up and wiped his face.Then strode back to the original position, picked up the prey on the ground, and walked towards the crowd.

Everyone panicked when they saw him coming, and some even took up weapons.Fang Jibei didn't look at them, he just threw the prey on the ground and said, "If you are all full, give me a break, I'm hungry."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Kong Zhigao looked at Fang Jibei with a smile slowly appearing in his eyes.

He stepped forward and sat next to Fang Jibei: "I haven't eaten yet, and I'm hungry, can I share some of your prey?"

In the next few days, Fang Jibei got some food, and the others also found some.Then two more people died, and the bodies were naturally divided.

Fang Jibei didn't take a bite, but he didn't stop him either.

When he finally walked out of the dense forest, only Kong Zhigao saw Fang Jibei, and Fang Jibei looked back with a trace of exhaustion on his face.

After completing the smuggling task and exchanging the money they got for special products in southern Xinjiang, the group went back to walk through the forest.

It's not that no one wants to sneak away, but after seeing the attitude of the people of Southern Xinjiang towards them, the "Central Plains people", this idea was naturally dispelled - if it weren't for the help of the businessmen in Southern Xinjiang, they wouldn't be able to stay for a few days .

When I went back, I was relatively well prepared. Even so, another person died on the way.When they returned to Yingzhou, there were only 16 people left in the group.

Fan Chengshou saw them, collected the items, and happily calculated the benefits of this trip.

"Chengshou, four of us died this time. Xiaojie was assigned with his mother. I hope Chengshou can give his mother some compensation..." Fang Jibei suddenly said.

Fan Chengshou didn't expect that this exile would dare to speak, he was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and said to the master next to him, "Did you hear that, this kid actually asked me to compensate the exile..."

The master smirked: "City guard, have you forgotten, the child's mother looks good, she was sent to your room when she first arrived, and she played for several days, this is also compensation!"

Fan Chengshou thought for a while: "Is it that girl with long legs? It tastes good. Is it compensation? I rewarded her to the gang in the barracks to make her happy, so it must be compensation!"

He picked up the Southern Border Jade and laughed loudly: "Master, look, these are top grade. I will send some to Zhizhou, and I will definitely have my share in the next promotion..." He turned his head and said to the few people standing below. , "You have done a good job, you can rest for two months, and then go to southern Xinjiang—"

His mouth was still open, but his head had fallen off.

Fang Jibei held a knife in his hand, and the knife was full of blood.

Kong Zhigao looked up at him with a smile on his lips.Suddenly he lifted his robe and knelt down.

"Kong Zhigao is willing to do the work of a dog and a horse for the king."

Fang Jibei could still understand this sentence.He was stunned for a moment, then cut off the master's head with another knife, and said to Kong Zhigao in the light of blood: "I am not a king, just call me a general."

In the tenth year of Qingli, a rebellion broke out in Yingzhou.The leader is a first-class criminal named Fang Jibei.

Kong Zhigao stood three meters away from him, knowing vaguely in his heart that this would be the distance between him and this person from now on.

He may never see that mother-in-law teenager again.Accordingly, he has a general.

Since then, the guide has fought north and gradually expanded its power in the war.Dawei was already outraged, and the rebel army didn't take much trouble, and they took down the country in just four or five years.

The general became a marshal. This man is a natural genius, although he is illiterate and does not understand the art of war.But his feeling is very accurate, as long as he thinks the strategy is OK, there will be nothing wrong.As long as he thinks something is wrong, something will happen.

God bless the people.

Finally reached the capital and captured the palace.When Kong Zhigao arrived at the palace, the overall situation was settled.

It is said that the first emperor committed suicide, which is good, to save trouble.But beside Fang Jibei, he saw a young man, the young man was extremely beautiful, his eyes were so deep that even he couldn't see the expression inside.

Feeling faintly uneasy, I really want to get rid of this boy immediately.When the two looked at each other, the young man probably saw the murderous look in his eyes, his eyes changed slightly, and something flashed by.

Kong Zhigao was terrified.Even if it was only for a moment, he could see it.

This look is like him before meeting Fang Jibei.There is nothing in it, only the desire to survive.

...do whatever it takes to survive.

Kong Zhigao suddenly laughed in his heart.

This young man is not himself, his nature is to be inferior to others and cannot be arbitrary, but this young man is different, he has an aura that is not inferior to Fang Jibei's.Even if he stood beside Fang Jibei, he would not take away his glory.

He had a feeling that this young man would be another self, gradually influenced by Fang Jibei.But he is not another self, he will be much stronger than himself, and closer to his own emperor.

Kong Zhigao didn't have beast-like intuition like Fang Jibei did.But this time he felt very strongly that he could not be wrong.

"What's your name? What official?" He asked.

"My name is Bi Zihao, and I'm a housekeeper." The young man replied.

In the seventh month of Dingyou in the third year of Chengzhao, the rebel army entered the palace, and the emperor killed himself in front of the thieves.

Fang Jibei and Bi Zihao met for the first time.
