How long does it take for the body to go from soft to stiff?
answer:
One to three hours…
After death...
How long does it take for the body to start cooling down...
Answer: Yes...one to three hours...
After understanding the above two points, we can more or less understand the young man's feelings at this moment...
Because the girl in his arms was getting colder bit by bit in the cold wind...
Getting stiffer bit by bit...
It wasn't until the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone on her pale face... that the young man completely gave up all his fantasies and put down the cold body in his arms... pulled out the ribs from his waist, faced the sun, and held the knife
The tip touched his lower abdomen...
With the slight exertion of the palm... the tip of the knife slowly cut his skin, and a wisp of dark red blood flowed down the handle of the knife into his palm, bringing with it a touch of warmth... and a hint of silk.
Silky and sticky...
At this moment...the young man was scared...
His whole body was shaking uncontrollably! Even though he screamed desperately and kept putting pressure on the handle of the knife, there was always an invisible and intangible force that was competing against it, preventing the tip of the knife from moving any further...
And this mysterious power... is human survival instinct...
Wanting to die...is not that easy...
Facing death, people are born with a kind of fear and a sense of awe.
And this kind of fear and awe will become more and more deeply rooted in the bone marrow and immersed in the soul as we grow older...
"Whoa!"
"Pap..."
The young man finally gave up his struggle, threw Richa into the grass, and lay on the ground crying and shouting. He thought that by being promoted from a pariah to a warrior, he would have extremely noble "loyalty", but in the end he was still with a peasant.
, an Orion, there is no difference...
he……
Still afraid of death...
After crying...he smiled again...
But he didn’t know what he was laughing at!
Are you laughing at your own cowardice! Or are you laughing at your ability to survive a catastrophe?
Maybe... both...
In this way, he was alone by the river bank for a long time, and he was crazy for a long time. Until he was tired and bored, he slowly stood up, patted the loose soil on his clothes... and picked up the ribs.
, digging holes on the ground desperately...
At this time, his face was expressionless
At this time, he no longer felt ashamed in his heart
Because he has compromised with himself...surrendered...
It was also from this moment on that his eyes began to transform... He no longer had the greenness of yesterday, as if he had matured overnight... and had an epiphany...
No matter how noble you were in life, you will be just a carrion after death. All loyalty and obsessions are just shackles that living people impose on themselves. Living, and only living, is the pursuit closest to the self!
a tomb
a pebble
Not only did he bury his family master, but he also buried his childishness.
When he stood up again, the young man looked around and then at the river embankment. He smiled miserably and walked towards the Tokugawa Army's camp...
And this young man named Yamamoto Keinosuke knelt down for two hours after his name was passed around before he saw Ii Naomasa again.
After Ii Naomasa re-examined the boy's eyes, he asked a question calmly...
"Where is your...loyalty..."
The young man bowed to the ground and replied:
"All...dedicated to Your Excellency Jingyi..."

The seventeenth day of the twelfth lunar month
Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was having a feast in Kyoto and treating his retainers, suddenly received a secret letter...
But after reading this secret letter, Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was originally high-spirited and chatting and laughing, suddenly changed his face and became suddenly angry!
Not only did they overturn the low table in front of them and break the wine glass, but they also vented their anger on the dancing girls. If they hadn't run so fast, they would have become the dead souls of Tokugawa Ieyasu...
The letter... has two pages...
first page,
From Kiyomasa Kato
The letter described how he was embarrassed as an old father. He never expected that his daughter would have an affair with someone. He really had no shame in marrying his eldest daughter to the tenth son of Lord Tokugawa Ieyasu. Therefore,
He expressed that he was deeply saddened and ashamed, but in the end, there was nothing more than two words...
break off an engagement……
"If you break off the engagement, break off the engagement! Why are you insulting my family!!!"
Tokugawa Ieyasu was angry, and he had his reasons for being angry...
After all, it is humiliating to regret a marriage, but before you left, you gave a big cuckold to put on my son’s head!! What is the meaning of this!!
But just this is not enough to make people like him in the city furious in public...
The secrets are mainly on the second piece of letter paper...
Because the second page of the letter was written by Yan Bing...
More than half of the letter was devoted to praising Tokugawa Ieyasu for keeping his word and "knowing the current affairs." However, in the other half, Yan Bing suddenly became compassionate. The letter said that she could not bear to see the Yamato people killing each other and the blood of the people.
Liu Chenghe wants to come forward to negotiate peace and mediation with both parties, so that he and Toyotomi Hideyoshi will not fight each other for five years! They will establish a mutual covenant!
And in the covenant... there is one more country... that is Kato Kiyomasa's Kyushu Island...
cheat
humiliation
torture
Do whatever it takes!!
Once this treaty was signed, Tokugawa Ieyasu's dream of unifying the country disappeared in an instant!
And the war that has lasted for nearly a hundred years may continue for another hundred years!
How vicious are the intentions!!
What a cruel intention!!
On the surface, it is said that it is asking for orders for the people and cultivating harmony! In fact, it is to use these wars and wars to consume the last drop of blood of the country!! Eat the last trace of minced meat!! Eight-one Chinese website
But he had no other choice but to accept...
If he dares to stand up and oppose him at this time, it will not only be Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Kato Kiyomasa who will fight against him! It will also be the entire Daliang!!
"We were fooled!! We all were fooled by that Liang Guo witch!!"
At this moment, Tokugawa Ieyasu was furious, but there was nothing he could do!!
Because he knows that all anger and unwillingness are just illusions. Only his own weakness will allow the other party to take advantage of him!!
Smash!
hack!
Roar!
Rage!
Knowing that he was powerless, Tokugawa Ieyasu could only vent his anger in his own hall, and then waited for the other party's arrangements before signing the covenant that symbolized humiliation...

The twenty-first day of the twelfth lunar month
Yan Bing wore a colorful dress that had just been retrieved from the Central Plains by the Second Fleet and went to the peace talks venue...
There were only ten personal guards accompanying her, plus a stooped old man, but Yan Bing knew that this was enough to shock the entire audience...
Because behind her, there are not only several grandmasters, but also an extremely powerful Central Plains dynasty supporting her. Who... dares to provoke her...
