Chapter 180 True Content (1)
After walking for several hours, I realized that there were no more pursuers in the rear, the remaining troops coming from Huiyang finally settled here to rest.
After Xu Guang's order, the entire army was silent again, and three thousand soldiers fell to the ground, their eyes were confused, and they all chose to remain silent.
After glanced around, Xu Guang's eyes fell to his side. Ling Duanshang's face was covered with blood and a pungent fishy smell on his body. Almost no one dared to approach him. Xu Guang sighed gently, took a water bag full of clear water and handed it to Ling Duanshang, and said lightly: "Brother, clean it."
Ling Duanshang looked at him, and the red light in his eyes had already disappeared. He silently took the water bag, twisted the lid, and dripped it backwards, allowing the slightly cold water to drip himself from head to toe.
Ma Lian was sitting on the ground at this time, his eyes were still wandering around, worried that the Qing army would come again. At this moment, his eyes somehow fixed on Ling Duanshang's fair cheeks that were gradually disappearing from the blood.
Ma Lian's eyes gradually magnified, and he felt a "kick!" sound in his heart, "This face, this very familiar face, is actually the only grandson of the Duke of Zhongguo who is wanted nationwide - Ling Duanshang!"
Ma Lian's face, which was originally in shock, turned a little white again. Finally, the "Ling Duanshang" almost roared, with a bit of harsh and sharpness. Fortunately, strong wind suddenly came from the plain to imprison Ma Lian's voice in a narrow range. Only Ling Duanshang, Xu Guang, Ren Wufei, and the guards sitting next to Ma Lian heard about it.
Everyone was stunned, and their eyes widened and looked at Ling Duanshang.
But I saw this man's skin as white as ivory, his eyes as bright as stars, his nose as stern as a gallbladder, and the rebellious ray of face appeared on his face. Such a handsome and demonic face was not Ling Duanshang, the son of Mu Yunshu, who was so beautiful and charming?
At this moment, Xu Guang was stunned, with a dull expression, but the light flashed in the tiger's eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
But behind him, a flush gradually rose on Ma Lian's pale and fat face, and his fat body trembled, and his small eyes gradually shone with a bright light of excitement.
"The court has an order to capture Ling Tiancheng's grandson alive - Chengping Boling Duanshang, who was granted the title of loyal lord and marquis, three generations of hereditary, rewarded 100,000 taels, and rewarded 10,000 mu of fertile land in the southern part of the Wei Kingdom!" Ma Lian muttered in a hurry. This reward was clearly the second imperial edict issued by the imperial court a month ago!
At this point, Ma Lian stared at the turret and pointed to Ling Duanshang in front of him and shouted: "All the generals obey the order! Those who capture this person alive will be rewarded with a hundred taels!"
He, Ma Lian, suffered such pain and was so frightened, was it because of the reward of the Marquis's Jue? This time, he just needed to catch Ling Duanshang, and the bright future would be in front of him!
"The bounty is 100 taels!" This is not silver, not copper coins, but real gold! The guards beside Ma Lian's side had their eyes red, and they lifted their swords and surrounded Ling Duanshang, who was no longer physical but pure gold in their eyes.
They had forgotten that the person in front of them was regarded as the god of killing in Qingbing's eyes. The long sword in his hand had already drunk countless blood. With their strength, they just added a few strands of unjust souls under the sword!
A pair of cold eyes as cold as a sword swept away faintly. The invisible murderous intent forced the people to fear, as if a bucket of ice water poured the guards into a heart-warming heart.
With a sudden excitement, everyone stopped, and their hot heads finally calmed down. After looking at each other for a while, they didn't dare to move forward. They just stayed in place with a long sword in their hand, and they didn't even dare to look at those eyes.
"A bunch of wine bags! Why are you still standing there? Don't want a hundred taels of bounty?" Ma Lian's fat body jumped behind him, and his saliva spit out from his mouth.
But no one in front of them dared to take a step forward!
Xu Guang's figure fell into Ma Lian's eyes, and his eyes lit up and shouted: "Person Xu, I will order you to capture Ling Duanshang!"
However, what responded to him was nothing more than a whistling of silence and a strong wind.
"Breaking against you! Xu Guang! Do you want to disobey the military order?" Ma Lian's originally not small face was even more bloated with anger. At this time, he saw that he was like a red-burned pig's head.
"And that Ren Wufei! You are the tenth commander of my Huiyang Army. I will let you take Ling Duanshang down! There must be a heavy reward! Isn't Ren Tianxiang asking you to join the army just to make military achievements? This is military achievements! I will reward you as a captain..."
"What a stupid fool!" Ren Wufei's eyes were full of mockery, and he looked at Ma Lian as if he was in the water. After a fool, he stopped talking, but just looked at Ling Duanshang, and his heart was no longer as calm as his face: "I didn't expect this person to be Ling Duanshang! Didn't that Chengping Bo was a famous playboy in Zhaojing? He was ignorant since he was a child and was one of the best playboys in the Wei Kingdom. Why did he see such martial arts and knowledge? Could it be that he was a playboy who was a playboy since he was a child, and now he was suffering from such a disaster... He is worthy of being a descendant of the Ling family. Who can match such a low-key cunning man?"
Seeing that no one responded, Ma Lian finally became anxious. He pointed at Xu Guang, and his eyes as big as a mung bean emitted a fierce light: "Good you Xu Guang! You were going to settle in Huiyang, if I hadn't begged my father to give me a letter to the imperial court, how could you live in this prosperous south with a comfortable place? Now you dare to disobey me! You ungrateful person! I had misread you at the beginning!"
Xu Guang still didn't argue anything. Although he knew that Ma Lian was just a one-sided statement. He did mean to settle in Huiyang at the beginning, Ma Lian valued him more because of his reputation and martial arts in the Zhaojing Imperial Guard. If it weren't for this, how could he, a small official in Huiyang, try his best to keep him here? And he gave up everything he had worked hard in Zhaojing and was willing to demote to the south to be under the second generation ancestor who was in this wine bag. Everything he did was to repay the favor of Ling Zhonggong for his support back then! I thought that Xu Guang was just a small horse in front of him. If it weren't for Ling Zhonggong's appreciation, how could he have had this art and official position in the capital? Maybe he would have become a piece of loess in some war!
However, when the imperial city expanded that year, he continued to serve as a general of the Zhongguo Army and entered the Zhaojing Imperial Guard. From then on, he chose the latter. His greed for life and fear of death made him leave the Zhongguo Army. Although he could see Ling Zhonggong's eyes, he still heard a saying that everyone had their own ambitions and never blamed him at all. From then on, Xu Guang realized that the step he took had made life meaningless and made him named a coward. In the years and months, he wanted to return to the Zhongguo Army many times to join Ling Zhonggong to fight to kill the enemy, but he always couldn't retreat to that step of the imperial guard system and his guilt.
At the 18th year, that night he heard that Ling Zhonggong was taken to the Heavenly Prison for his crime of treason and rebellion. How could he suppress himself? He almost killed the Heavenly Prison with a single sword. But under the torture of reason, he finally realized that showing off his courage would only become an unjust dead man who was labeled as a remnant of the rebels. He chose to leave this useful body and then go to the south alone to save Ling Zhonggong Duan Shang. Even though this person was a second-generation ancestor who was the first to Zhaojing as a playboy, as long as he had the mark of Ling Zhonggong in his body, Xu Guang would save him even if he died!
