Bamboo horse, bamboo horse, cheating and fraud

Chapter 72 Defection

I looked around and didn't see half of the figure, so I felt a little lost.

The bustling crowd rushed past like a torrent. In front of the humble stall, a dying old man lay on the ground and twisted his body exaggeratedly. His ragged clothes were blown up and down by the rustling autumn wind.

The old man was already emaciated, his whole body showing a sick twist.He was roaring right now, and it took me a long time to see that he was performing a scene of "Wu Song Fighting the Tiger".A tiger skin with almost all its hair worn off was hanging crookedly on the bamboo pole, and he, the old "Wu Song", was jumping around the tiger skin with difficulty.

People were in a hurry and didn't pay much attention to this old man who was acting and enjoying himself.The empty bowl in front of him was kicked into the middle of the road by a passer-by, so he tremblingly walked over to straighten the porcelain bowl, and replayed that neither embarrassing nor embarrassing scene.

Suddenly his feet trembled, and he staggered and fell to the ground. The pedestrians around caught a glimpse of this scene and stopped to watch with interest.Some people witnessed him struggling to get up and laughed happily.

There was a daze in the old man's eyes, but then he seemed to understand something, adjusted his posture again, and threw himself heavily on the ground again.

That pounce was really extraordinary, and the onlookers burst into laughter when they saw his funny appearance.

Seeing that his performance really attracted everyone's attention, the old man twisted his mouth and tried to pull out a smile, but then he realized a more serious problem - his old body seemed to be unable to withstand all the troubles. That fall had broken his leg.

He began to lie on the ground and howl at the top of his lungs, but the passers-by were all dumbfounded, and they all moved away when they saw that the show they wanted to watch was over, only a few good-for-nothings stood aside and pointed with interest.

My heart felt as if I had been stabbed thousands of times by a blunt knife, so I could only walk towards the old man in a daze.

However, as soon as I took out my purse, a group of ten-year-old children flocked to surround me and shouted:

"Come on, give me something to eat!"

"Brother, I've been hungry for a few days, please!"

……

Reluctantly, I untied the purse and stuffed a few grains of silver into their hands, but they didn't appreciate it: "Living Bodhisattva, you should just give us something to eat. Now that the war is raging, the silver is useless!"

I was caught between them, and my young body squeezed me in different directions with all my strength. It was difficult for me to stand still, and I felt dizzy inside my head.

The voice of a woman reprimanding a child in the distance seemed very distant, but it came to my ears very clearly: "The rebels have already attacked the city, and you promised to leave the city today, but you are still running around! You son of a bitch, you think you are alive!" It’s too long, don’t you see those corpses piled up at the gate of the city!”

The child's eyes became watery, and he said aggrievedly: "Mom, I'm hungry, my stomach hurts so much!"

"It's better to starve to death than to be hacked to death..."

My vision went dark and I lost consciousness.

For a toddler, if there is something to lean on, it is difficult to truly learn to walk independently. Just like before, I always thought that with Yunxuan and Xiaoshun, things would not be too bad.But people have to grow up, and one day I will lose the protection of others and become the canopy of others. At that time, can I hold up a piece of sky alone?

Three days later, we attacked the imperial city.

Now I am so weak that I rely on my skeleton to support my sick body, and I have to take a long breath even if I take two extra steps.

Above the court hall, there was a dead silence.

Xiao Luoye, with gloomy eyes and glaring eyes, with an iron sword on his shoulder.

Ji Tan also has a dull complexion and mournful eyes.

Standing with hands behind his back, smiling and sighing silently, thinking that it is wonderful, Yan Yinye is the one who has the spirit of "with the precious sword in hand, I have the world".

He stared round his eyes and shouted: "Brother, you you you you you...you got the wrong partner!" The person, You Maobing also.

His eyes were full of ridicule and he said: "You Maobing, you are deceived by lard, and you can't see it?" Lin Banban is the one.

And I stuck the iron sword in my hand to Xiao Luo's neck, leaned towards Yan Yin and said: "My minister Xu Zifang, it's too late to save you!"

The subordinates who were ambushing outside the hall were all dumbfounded. They looked at each other and confirmed each other: "Are we the rebel army or the imperial guards, am I still awake?"

I know that I cheated those brothers, but at least at the last moment, I saved their heads and gave them a chance to get promoted and make a fortune, so I don't owe them any.

I sighed and looked at Yan Yin: "Everything has been as you wished, and I hope that what you promised me will be as good as it is!"

He laughed loudly: "Don't worry, a gentleman said that a four-horse horse is hard to chase me. Not only will I not hurt a single hair of the brothers you brought, but I will also give them a promotion and a reward of one hundred taels of silver!"

I finally breathed a sigh of relief when I heard the words, you are not joking, and I have no worries at all with the eyes of everyone in the court.

I looked at Banban: "I set up a tomb for Yunxuan on the hill near the capital, I can't describe the exact place, I'll trouble you and I'll look for it later... Banban, I almost found a good man to marry Bar!"

You Maobing's face was full of suspicion, but half of his face suddenly changed, and he screamed out.

However, it was too late. With a shake of my hand, the dagger hidden in my sleeve slipped quickly into my hand.I raised the dagger with lightning speed and stabbed it in the chest.

This matter is over.

Over the past four or five years, tens of thousands of fresh lives headed by Lao Shi have all disappeared in an instant.But no one should be responsible for my childishness and incompetence.

I once thought that one day when I meet again under the Nine Springs, I am afraid that he will look at me with a smile and say: "Xu Zifang, you are so confused!"

Fortunately, God gave me a chance to redeem my sins.

It took me a long time and a half to find me after I passed out of a coma that day, but the first time I woke up, I asked Ban Ban to remove the eyeliner that Xiao Luo had placed beside me, and went to a small restaurant by myself.

I know the person I'm waiting for will come.

Seeing that thin body again, it really feels like a lifetime away.

The whole negotiation between me and him was carried out with pen and ink. He and Yan Yin had already made up all the plans, and I just owed me a nod.

And the conditions I set out are very simple: I must bring not one less brother!

When Ji Tan saw the words, he let out a long sigh of relief, and those few sheets of paper that were densely covered with handwriting turned into ashes, put them into a cup, made a paste, and spread them on the corner of the wall, then walked out cautiously, and hid in the thick night...

I closed my eyes, although I felt a little desperate, but more of a relief.

Everyone entrusted their lives to me, and I finally survived.

Yun Sui, are you all right?
