However, the moment the scissors really touched the flesh, his movements paused again, his hands trembled, and he couldn't move his hands no matter what.
He has never even killed a chicken with his own hands, let alone killed himself!
He was not afraid of death, otherwise he would not have escaped or escaped... Only at this moment did he realize that it was not an easy task to kill himself.
Luo Guanlin threw away the scissors with a bit of self-hatred and self-mockery. Then, without hesitation, he stepped on the literary chair beside him and reached out to grab the white silk that had been hanging on the beam.
He put Bai Ling around his neck, and the moment he closed his eyes tremblingly, the chair he was standing on was kicked to the ground.
His body suddenly hung in the air, and the pain of being robbed of his breath was instantly shrouded in pain. Many scenes appeared in his mind, from being demoted from Beijing to meeting Xu Zhengye...
All of this is like a dream. The dream begins with the joyful drinking under the moonlight. It is the ambition to create a new world in this chaotic world. It is the endless hope to save the building from collapse and re-support the orthodoxy of the Li family.
But I don’t know when the color of this dream changed. From the colorful scene in his imagination at the beginning, only red and black were left. The former was a bloody sky, and the latter was an endless night.
The long night is coming, and no one can stop it.
His body began to struggle instinctively, and his eyes widened, as if he was still unwilling to find a glimmer of light called an exit from the boundless darkness.
Suddenly, there seemed to be a sound of wind, and a dazzling bright color flashed through his almost split pupils with the wind——
Luo Guanlin thought that this was a vision he had before his death.
The next moment, he suddenly felt his body lighten, and the severed Bai Ling lost the ability to control his life.
With a "plop" sound, Luo Guanlin fell to the ground.
There was still a buzzing in his ears, and he subconsciously raised his eyes and saw a bright long sword hanging on the picture of the snow and moon hanging in front of him.
There are several copper plates neatly braided with red rope hanging on the top, and the peace knot hanging below the copper plates is still trembling slightly.
Was it this sword that cut off his white silk?
Luo Guanlin was breathing heavily and coughing. There was a loud buzzing in his head. He could hardly hear other sounds, and his thoughts had not yet completely returned to his senses.
He saw a figure running over, pulled out the sword, and held it up with both hands.
Luo Guanlin raised his upper body with difficulty and turned his head to look.
A young man wearing armor walked in, took the sword, and turned the sword in the young man's hand. He didn't even need to look at it. He only heard a "crack" sound, and the sharp blade became precise.
It slipped smoothly into the scabbard held by his other hand.
The young man looked at him and spoke with a thankful tone——
"Fortunately, I arrived in time, otherwise I would have had to collect the body and mourn for my husband."
Hearing this clear and sweet voice, which was clearly not like a man's, Luo Guanlin was surprised and looked at the man intently: "...Are you that Chang Sui Ning?"
"Exactly." The girl raised her hand holding the sword, saluted him, and said politely: "Sui Ning has long admired Mr. Sui Ning's name. It's a pleasure to meet you."
As she said this, she motioned for Ah Che to step forward and help him up.
Soon, shepherd's purse arrived with a group of more than 20 armored women's soldiers and surrounded the place.
Luo Guanlin brushed Ah Che away, forced himself to sit up, and said in a hoarse voice: "...If you want to kill me, kill me!"
He said with great sarcasm: "Just trade my head for a fifth-grade official!"
When his memorial was published, the empress had already announced that those who presented Xu Zhengye's head would be awarded a third-rank official, and those who presented the heads of other culprits would also be awarded a fifth-rank official.
Speaking of which, wasn't General Ningyuan's fifth-grade official position obtained by killing Ge Zong in the first place?
"Now that I have abundant military exploits, I don't lack the head of Sir." Chang Sui Ning sat down casually in a chair beside him: "Otherwise, why would I have bothered to save Sir just now?"
Luo Guanlin looked at the girl who was showing no restraint in her movements, and asked one word at a time: "...So, what is your intention?"
Standing next to Chang Sui Ning, shepherd's purse raised her eyebrows and said: "My general saved you despite his busy schedule. Isn't it obvious? - Either surrender or die!"
Luo Guanlin suddenly frowned, looked at Chang Sui Ning, and then suddenly sneered.
The reincarnation of the general known to the world... turns out to be another person who wants to bring chaos to the world!
Sure enough, this world is indeed hopeless!
But what qualifications does he have to blame others?
He is nothing more than a damn rebel!
He mocked: "Why do you think that I would be willing to surrender to someone who killed my old master?"
"Sir, he said it's the old master. As the saying goes, if the old doesn't go, the new won't come." Chang Suining said in a kind tone: "Besides, haven't you already been separated from each other? He went to Luoyang on this trip, but you didn't follow him.
, it can be seen that differences have arisen, so it doesn’t matter whether he dies or not, after all, the fate between you two is over."
"And I happened to be in Yangzhou today. My husband was about to hang himself. I showed up just in time to save him." She showed a sincere smile: "It can be seen that the relationship between me and my husband is after Qianfan's death.
Destined fate.”
The corner of Luo Guanlin's mouth twitched. She said such ridiculous words without any burden, which really opened his eyes: "...Now Luo finally believes that the original article about killing the Xu thief on the 73rd was indeed not true.
Someone else ghostwrote it!”
She is talking nonsense right now, and she is not shy about putting gold on her face. It is exactly the same as that article!
Chang Sui Ning nodded lightly: "Speaking of that memorandum, it was really inspired by my husband. I'm just a master of the art, not as good as my husband."
At that time, after reading the admonishment, she was amazed and thought that if there was a chance in the future, she would definitely get this person.
Therefore, Chang Suining's attitude is particularly good and he doesn't care about his face: "In the future, I will have to rely on my teacher for more guidance——"
Why is there talk of giving a lesson?!
Luo Guanlin looked solemn and said decisively: "Luo has no intention of joining others, but now he just wants to die!"
Chang Sui Ning disapproved and said: "Actually, today is my birthday. Sir, please don't say such unlucky words again."
Luo Guanlin's expression condensed: "...?"
Who cares if today is her birthday!
Besides, she has killed very few people along the way. Is it good or bad to talk to him now?
He didn't want to talk to this girl whose words and deeds were different from ordinary people, so he started to look to the left and right, and when he was about to seek death again, he heard the voice ask: "If you really want to talk about death, sir, he has already died once."
, I would like to ask, sir, when he was about to die, did he really feel no regrets in his heart?"
Luo Guanlin's eyes froze.
Hearing the voice again, he continued: "I know that today is just the first time that you, sir, have met me. You and I have been on opposite sides before, so my husband naturally doesn't have a good impression of me. However, we see each other right at the first sight in this world.
There are very few fates that seem to match each other. Even if there are, most of them are traps created by one of the parties deliberately catering to them——"
"..." Luo Guanlin suddenly felt a dull pain in his heart, and the memories of his death were like knives, starting to stab him again.
"In contrast, I believe that the like-minded people who really get along with each other and understand each other will be more reliable and long-term, and more worthy of mutual trust." Chang Suining said sincerely: "So, if you don't give it a try, how do you know that it will definitely not work?
"
Luo Guanlin lowered his head, clenched his hands tightly on the ground, and said with a sneer: "Your Excellency's words sound quite sincere at first glance... But what Luo needs is not sincerity. Luo has no intention of living alone. The general said more
It’s also useless.”
Chang Suining looked at him: "So, sir, don't you dare?"
Luo Guanlin was unmoved: "The method of stimulating generals is of no use to a dying person."
Chang Suining shook his head: "When I say 'dare not', I don't mean that Mr. dare not agree to me, but that... Mr. dare not live."
Luo Guanlin slowly raised his head that was hanging weakly and looked at her.
"Sir, you have chosen the wrong person, and you feel guilty, so you dare not live to see the world continue to collapse." Chang Suining put away his casual expression: "Sir, you only want to die, not to die for your old master, let alone
To die for this city, sir, is to die for the way that is already dead in your heart."
As they looked at each other, Luo Guanlin's red eyes trembled slightly.
"Speaking of this, sir, aren't you curious as to why I am so obsessed with you?" Chang Sui Ning Zhengse said: "Because I know that Xu Zhengye's way is 'struggle' and 'destruction', and your way is
'Keep' and 'save'."
"Sir, you don't want to submit to me because in your eyes, I am just the second Xu Zhengye at most." Chang Suining looked at Luo Guanlin, whose expression was changing little by little, and said, "But you, sir, are wrong. Xu Zhengye and I are
Different. Just because he is different, I kill him."
Luo Guanlin looked at the girl whose voice was not strong, but her words were firmly in his heart. He only heard her last words——
"What Xu Zhengye doesn't want to do and what he can't do, I can do it."
Luo Guanlin asked almost subconsciously: "Is it just you?"
"Yes." Chang Suining nodded lightly as usual, and he was so serious that he didn't seem to be boasting: "Sir, I have many advantages. I am not only good at killing, but I am also gifted in other aspects."
Luo Guanlin squeezed out a strange laugh from deep in his throat. He had never heard such straightforward self-praise from a person. She didn't even bother to modify her words or use examples to illustrate her words, and only used the most straightforward words to praise herself.
At this moment, he was laughing at the other party's naivety and arrogance, and even more so at himself for actually listening carefully to the other party's floating words - if the other party was not deliberately pretending to be naive.
Seeing his disdainful expression, Chang Suining suggested: "Sir, if you think that I alone can't accomplish anything, why not join us? If I can have you with me, I will have a better chance of winning this trip."
"..." Luo Guanlin felt that he had never met such a person in his life. No matter what your attitude was, she could always bring the topic back to her purpose.
She is said to be cunning and changeable, but she is also said to be sincere and polite.
But for a person with such a sharp mind, how could he believe that what she said was the truth?
It should be noted that he was deceived by Xu Zhengye’s sweet words in the first place!
If he dives in again because of these beautiful words this time, then he may not be easy to deceive... I am afraid that there will be no other person as innocent, stupid and pure as him in the whole Da Sheng.
!
He would never fall for the same trick again...at least not for the second time easily.
Luo Guanlin's heart was uncontrollably shaken, and he still said: "There is no need to waste any more words, I have made up my mind..."
He finished speaking, and when he was expecting the other party to say something else, he suddenly saw Chang Sui Ning getting up from his chair and sighed: "Well, it seems that I can't stand it today."
Luo Guanlin was stunned.
What's the meaning?
Just...give up?
After he was stunned, he then had a chilling feeling that "it's true" - oh, it turns out that there is not much sincerity and sincerity at all!
For such a person, it is expected that the words she says are not very credible at all!
"We are in a hurry today, so let's leave it at that for now." Chang Suining said, "Ache, Mr. Luo is a scholar and needs to be treated with more courtesy."
Ache agreed.
Seeing that figure leaving the study, Luo Guanlin closed his eyes in despair, waiting for a happy ending.
But I heard the young man in my ear ask: "Mr. Luo, are you struggling on weekdays?"
This was a strange statement, and Luo Guanlin was puzzled and speechless - why should he ask whether he was struggling in daily life? Is this some kind of hospice care?
Ah Che then explained: "What I mean is, can you withstand the strong force? I will knock you out later. Do you have any requirements in terms of severity?"
Luo Guanlin: "...?!"
Knock him out?
Not kill him?
The next moment, the overly "courteous" young man took out two sacks from behind, holding one in each hand, and asked him seriously: "Then which style of sack do you like?"
Luo Guanlin, who had never had such a ridiculous and bizarre experience, his expression was almost distorted at this moment, but he looked over subconsciously... Is there any difference?
Ah Che explained seriously: "This is the way to weave auspicious cross buttons, this is..."
Shepherd's Purse interrupted him: "Just use the auspicious button. It's a girl's birthday, shouldn't it be auspicious?"
Luo Guanlin no longer knew what he could say.
Soon, he was knocked unconscious and put into a sack.
Ah Che specially chose red rope to tie the mouth of the sack, and embellished it in subtle ways, which can often just show the sense of ceremony and make the other party look more like a qualified birthday gift.
Seeing shepherd's purse carrying the sack out, Chang Suining said, "Take the person out of the house through the back door."
If the melon cannot be twisted for a while, just take the melon and seedling away together and continue twisting it when you have free time.
"Find a corpse with a similar body shape and drag it here." Chang Suining lifted his feet and left the place, saying, "Then let's burn this study."
"Yes, General!"
…
For the next ten days or so, Chang Sui Ning stayed in Yangzhou City to take care of the follow-up affairs. It was not until she heard that Chang Kuo and Xiao Min had taken back Jiangning City that she immediately led her army to Runzhou.
The two armies successfully met in Runzhou, and with support from the left and right, they recaptured Runzhou in just two days, and then came the finishing touches.
At this point, Li Changsui Ning and Xiao Min led their troops back from Bianzhou. In just one month, all three continents were about to be recovered.
The news of Dading in Jiangnan quickly spread back to the capital, and Xu Zhengye's rebellion was completely put down.
Next, it was time for the army to return to Beijing to discuss their merits and receive their rewards.
But Chang Suining, who is in Runzhou at the moment, has no intention of going back.
