I write a eulogy every day for the person beside my pillow

The soldiers were solemnly dressed, facing the high platform ahead, standing like tombstones.

Standing on the high platform, Xu Tu looked at his heroic general with satisfaction, turned his head, and flaunted a glance at Xiao Lun who was standing beside him.

Xu Tu's eyes were slightly provocative, as if he was saying to Xiao Luan, can your soldiers compare to this king's?

Xiao Luan nodded and smiled, politely making a "please" gesture.

Satisfied, Xu Tu gave his speech with great enthusiasm.

"Warriors, think about how many of our compatriots were killed by the dog emperor of the Lan Dynasty. His son—that little boy named Li Li secretly plotted to assassinate this king. This bloody vengeance, like yours, will never be forgotten by this king. "

"Now, the opportunity for revenge has come. King Ning is willing to send troops to help us, and together we will take down the Lan Dynasty and kill all the people of the Lan Dynasty!"

After Xutu's words fell, the audience immediately boiled up, and the soldiers were enthusiastic, holding up their machetes, and shouting loudly——

"Kill all the Lanchao people!"

"Kill all the Lanchao people!"

"Kill all the Lanchao people!"

They were so excited that Xiao Luan, who was supposed to be another protagonist, looked like an outsider.

Xiao Luan turned his eyes away, and put away a pitiful smile on the corner of his mouth.

When the excitement paused for a short while, Xutu raised his right hand high.

He was signaling to his subordinates that the ceremony had reached the next stage.

A soldier presented two bowls of wine, and there was a small sharp dagger on the tray.

The little soldier stopped between Xutu and Xiao Luan, knelt down on one knee, and raised the tray in his hand above his head.

Xu Tu picked up the dagger and handed it to Xiao Luan, "Your Majesty King Ning please first!"

Xiao Luan didn't make any extra moves, took the dagger, and cut a knife in the palm of his left hand without hesitation, blood gushed out from the wound, Xiao Luan's left hand clenched into a fist, and stopped on the top of the wine bowl, letting the blood flow to the in the bowl.

"readily!"

Xutu laughed loudly, and also cut his palm with the dagger, and performed the same ceremony as Xiao Luan.

"Today I Xutu and King Ning drank this bowl of wine, and formed a covenant. From now on, we will be the closest allies!"

"Your Majesty is also Xiao's closest ally."

They each raised their wine bowls, each concealing their true ambitions.

The so-called allies are nothing but a short-term consensus driven by interests. After the fall of the Lan Dynasty, the struggle between them has just begun.

But now, they need to drink this bowl of blood wine together and tell each other, don't worry, it's not time to tear your face apart.

When drinking, Xu Tu appeared to be more urgent than Xiao Lue, he raised his neck first, and drank the wine in one gulp.

At this moment, accidents happen!

The little soldier who knelt in front of Xutu and Xiao Lue and held up the tray, his face hidden under the helmet, who looked innocent at all, suddenly threw the tray away, pulled out the machete from his waist, and leaped like a cat, He rushed obliquely towards Xutu who was drinking with his head up.

Xiaobing slammed Xutu's lower body with his elbow quickly and mercilessly. Xutu was caught off guard and lost his balance. Kai's left hand pressed Xutu's shoulder like a pincer, and his right arm poured all his strength, the light of the knife flashed, and the tip of the knife immediately passed through Xutu's left chest!

The little soldier's assassination of Xu Tu was smooth and smooth, without any hesitation.Xutu opened his mouth halfway, with a shocked expression on his face, and fell on his back to the ground, his hands were still holding the blade that stabbed him.

The little soldier stepped on Xutu's body, and pulled out the blade with both hands. The blood suddenly flowed like a jet of spring water, across the cold moon in the night sky, adding a red light to the moon.

The change came so fast that no one could react in time. Li immediately threw down the helmet on his head that was used to cover up the appearance of the Han people and was too large to block his sight. He turned over and jumped deftly to the back of the high platform, submerged in the darkness.

Like a calm lake bursting suddenly, Li Li heard a huge commotion on the high platform where he assassinated Xu Tu.

Team after team of soldiers was rushing outside the camp, chasing the assassin who killed the king.

Those soldiers thought that the assassin must have fled outside, but in fact Li Li had been hiding quietly in the camp.

He cleverly changed his hiding position to avoid being encountered by others, and at the same time he was always looking for opportunities to escape.

However, there were many more soldiers guarding the camp than Li Li expected. Until dawn, Li Li still hadn't found a suitable breakthrough, and those soldiers who went out to track down the assassins had no gains and were gradually returning.

The soldiers began to search every corner of the camp. Three soldiers were already very close to Li Li's hiding place. As long as they walked a few steps forward and crossed the blind spot, they could see Li Li.

Li Li felt that his breathing was stagnant, and the knife was an inch out of its sheath, ready to fight at any time.

Suddenly, he heard the muffled sound of a sharp weapon piercing through flesh, and then the corpses of three soldiers fell sideways at his feet like heavy sacks.

Li Li raised his head and saw Xiao Huan standing in front of him, the knife in his hand was still dripping blood on the ground.

"Follow me, hurry up!" Xiao Lue pulled Li Li, "They will chase after half an hour at most."

He didn't care about what to say, and spent all his strength in avoiding the pursuit along the way.

Li Li couldn't remember how many days they escaped, probably two days, maybe three days. In short, when they finally stopped, they had already stepped on the land of Lan Chao.

The small town they lived in called Laina was located on the outskirts, and Han people mixed with people of all races from the Western Regions. The number of Han people may not be more than other people, but it is indeed on the territory of the Lan Dynasty.

After Li Li confirmed that there would be no more pursuers, he took Xiao Luan to find a post in the town to stay.

Xiao Lian was injured on the way to escape, his arm and calf were cut open by the pursuers, and his movement was hindered.

Although Li Li was not injured, he was disheveled and embarrassed after running around for days.

"Excuse me, I need two rooms." Li Li said to the proprietress in the post house.

The proprietress was a Han, looked Li Li and Xiao Lue up and down, obviously didn't believe that the two deserters in front of her had money, she moved her lips hesitantly, "One penny and one silver."

Li Li looked at Xiao Phan.

Xiao Luan flicked his sleeve, only found a piece of broken silver.

The proprietress put the piece of broken silver on a small scale and measured it. There was more than one penny, but there was no way to open another room.

"Sorry, I was in a hurry to go out, and I didn't bring enough money." Xiao Luan spread his hands, expressing that he really had nothing to worry about.

"I don't have any money with me." Li Li turned his head angrily, and said to the landlady, "Then I only need one room."

The lady proprietress handed over the wooden card corresponding to the room and the change to Li Li. Li Li only took the wooden card, and he casually pushed the extra copper plates to Xiao Lue.

After calling the waiter to bring hot water to the room, Li Li went upstairs directly.

Xiao Luan looked at his injured arm, then at his injured leg, looked up at Li Li's back resentfully, stood there, put the copper plate into the palm of his hand calmly, and counted how many coins were left. pieces.

After Li Li delivered hot water from the waiter in the shop, he closed the door tightly, took off his clothes, stepped into the bathtub, and washed himself well.

Still changing into the original clothes, Li Li called Xiao Er to pour out the sewage.

At this time, Xiao Lian limped and looked very pitiful into the room.

Li Li looked at it indifferently. He squeezed the water from the tail of his hair, gathered up the loose wet long black hair, and tied it casually with a piece of cloth in the middle and lower part of the hair.

"The shop clerk will bring hot water later, you give me the rest of the money, and I'll go to the shop to buy wound medicine." Li Li stretched out his hand and asked Xiao Luan for the change just now.

"It's all used up." Xiao Luan smiled, facing Li Li's suspicious eyes, he said, "I ordered a few dishes from the proprietress, you can go downstairs to fill your stomach first."

This post house also provides meals, but they have to pay extra.

What about your injury?Li Li almost blurted out, but immediately realized that he had no reason to ask such a question.

"It's okay."

Xiao Lue seemed to have guessed what Li Li was thinking, and responded with a smile.

"It's up to you." Li Li slammed the door, but when he left, he seemed to be running away.

Downstairs there is a bowl of rice and two stir-fried vegetables. The fried vegetables are green and yellow, but the asking price is not cheap. It is almost the amount corresponding to the change. In the bowl on one side is a naan bread that has been torn in half. Some people think that the naan bread is dry and hard, and throw it away after a few bites.

Li Li found himself laughing, and he immediately stopped this behavior.

Hungry, Li Li unceremoniously swept away the food.

He picked up the broken piece of naan, intending to take it upstairs.When a person is very hungry, he has to eat even the most difficult food, but he doesn't mind seeing Xiao Lue make a fool of himself.

It's just that what Li Li finally brought upstairs was not just the half piece of naan bread.

He also carried a sewing basket for mending clothes.

He had borrowed the sewing basket from the proprietress of the inn. Li Li noticed that Xiao Lun's cuff had been torn open during the struggle, and the wound that was simply wrapped with cloth strips was exposed to the air. Too much attention.

Li Li threw the hard naan bread into Xiao Lun's arms, put the sewing basket on the table with a calm expression, and sat down opposite to Xiao Lun.

Xiao Luan had just scrubbed himself with hot water with difficulty, and he had already torn off the material on the arm of the inner coat and used it as a bandage for the wound. If he didn't put on the tattered coat, he might as well run naked.

Li Li threaded the needle on his own, ignoring the strange gaze from Xiao Lian.

"Put out the wounded hand."

Xiao Luan hesitantly raised his right hand and put it on the table.

Li Li wanted to pull out the torn cloth, but he tried but failed. Most of the cloth was held down by Xiao Lian's wrist. It was really difficult for him to move due to his injury. Li Li had to lean forward with his upper body and lowered his He turned his head, put his fingers together at the tear in the fabric, and mended Xiao Luan's clothes.

The two of them were so close, but Li Li could only hear his own breathing, and it seemed that Xiao Luan didn't even dare to breathe.

So two stitches were made, Li Li stopped, without raising his head, and said speechlessly, "Afraid I'll stab you to death with an embroidery needle?"
