Chapter 686 The Temptation of Power

Su Ren didn't like to walk in the rain, let alone without a raincoat. The white horse kept shaking its head, shaking off the rainwater from its mane to prevent it from flowing into its eyes. Looking around, there were cavalry in black around him. Su Ren was

It's so tightly wrapped inside that it's difficult to even move, let alone run.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it hurt a little when it hit me. When I looked up, everything in front of me was gray. I don’t know how the Huns could identify the direction in such an environment. Su Ren felt as if he was walking in the clouds and mist. No matter how fast he ran, he was always caught.

The fog is shrouded.

There is a secret camp at Lengshan Pass, which is actually built underground. The entire ground is supported by thick logs, with only a small opening hidden in a hidden place. Zhang Junyue was wrong. The Hachi tribe did not betray Yu Shan. Because they

Basically, they were Yin Zhi's eyes and ears that stayed with Yu Dan. You can tell by looking at this hidden cave.

The cave is very big, with stables, kitchens, and even toilets and other facilities well prepared. Seeing Su Ren's expression of disbelief, Liu Hong chuckled: "Don't be surprised, this was originally a mine, but it was later abandoned.

It was just a year ago that we discovered it and reused it.”

"Mine? What to dig for? Coal or gold?"

"What is coal?"

"It's a stone that can burn."

"Oh! You call that coal! We call it flint, which is the thing you mentioned. Not to mention it is much easier to use than firewood and cow dung, but it smells bigger and produces black smoke when burned, and it is easier to burn.

, Yu Shanzheng placed his royal court in Yuci because he took a fancy to these flints. I heard that another one was found there. Didn't you do business with him? He didn't tell you? "

Su Ren shook his head. Liu Hong smiled and said: "It seems that you two are not really friends."

Su Ren was placed in a small room with cold stones on three sides. Only a wooden door was built where they came in. This place was originally supposed to be the corner of the mine. Later people made full use of the environment here and transformed it into a small room.

As a prison cell, unless you break out of the door, if you want to escape elsewhere, you have to turn into a gopher and crawl out of the ground.

Not long ago, Huang Shisan and Man Niu were also thrown in. They were beaten, and there was blood on the corners of their mouths. Huang Shisan's mouth was not secure, so he was beaten the most severely, and one eye was already swollen.

Out of sight. Su Ren quickly untied the ropes for the two of them, and Huang Shisan immediately rushed to the door and cursed outside. There was a long echo from the cave, and the voice became much louder.

Su Ren sat down on the wall at the back and took the water from Barbarian Niu: "Okay, scolding others will only get you beaten, why bother? You two were thrown in the car and didn't get wet, look at me

All wet."

There were no outsiders here, and the three people were busy helping Su Ren take off all the soaked clothes. It was very cold in the cave, and Su Ren was shivering after being stripped naked. Manniu quickly took off his outer robe and gave it to him.

Su Ren put it on and asked the guard outside for a bowl of hot water.

After struggling for a long time, Su Ren finally came to his senses: "From now on, neither of you can provoke them without my instructions. They won't kill me, but they don't guarantee that they won't kill you. If you want to go back alive,

Just be honest and don't get yourself into trouble."

Man Niu nodded in agreement, but Huang Shisan said: "Kill him, kill him! It's enough for me, Huang Shisan, to die for you!"

"Fart! You're damn dead, what should I do? Give back my personal guards? You don't even understand this? Without you, even if I have a chance to escape, I won't be able to come back alive. You all listen to me.

, whoever dares to make a mistake will be careful to come back and deal with you."

Huang Shisan was silent. Manniu quickly asked: "Sir, Liu Hong is not taking us to see King Zuo Guli, why are we stopping here? Isn't he afraid that our people will catch up?"

Su Rendao: "This is underground. These people are walking very fast along the way. Our people may not be able to keep up. Even if they can keep up, they may leave when the reinforcements arrive! This is a place to hide from the rain. The weather is fine.

will set off again.”

"Where will it take us?"

"The Royal Court! I just don't know if it's the Royal Court at the foot of Langjuxu Mountain or that Royal Court?"

Liu Hong came in personally to deliver the meal. There were no vegetables or porridge. Three legs of lamb were Su Ren's dinner. Of course, there was wine as well as meat. Liu Hong took out a small wine flask from his arms, raised his head and took a sip.

He had no intention of passing the jug to Su and Ren.

Su Ren didn't ask for it. He smiled and started to eat the leg of lamb given to him. The meat was already cold and had a sour taste. There was no salt or seasoning, and it had a fishy smell and a sour taste. He wouldn't even eat it when feeding dogs.

. But today, Su Ren endured the nausea and ate a whole half of it. In the end, he couldn't swallow it anymore and gave up. After eating the mutton, he rinsed his mouth and drank water. Liu Hong looked at it with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Su, just make do with it! This is the only food here, otherwise you will starve. It's not close to the royal court from here, and there are still these things along the way."

Su Ren nodded: "The herdsmen on the grassland live a difficult life. I know this, as long as they have something to eat."

Liu Hong sat down opposite Su Ren and watched the remaining leg of lamb being divided between Huang Shisan and Man Niu. The two of them ate happily, regardless of whether it was smelly or had gone bad. Liu Hong took another sip.

Seeing that Su Ren kept staring at the jug in his hand, he handed the jug to Su Ren with a smile: "Oh, hehehe, this is not as good as Mr. Su's Erguotou. Let's just drink a little to keep it warm."

warm."

Su Ren quickly took it and took a big sip to his mouth. The jug was not big, so there was only a big sip left in it. If he wanted to drink any more, there was nothing left. Seeing Huang Shisan and Man Niu looking at him eagerly, Su Ren felt a little agitated.

Sorry, I flushed the wine bottle down: "It's gone!"

What else could Huang Shisan and Manniu say? They curled their lips and continued to eat the remaining leg of lamb.

Su Ren returned the jug to Liu Hong: "When should we set off? This is still Yu Dan's chassis. He will know that I have been robbed by you by tomorrow morning at the latest. I'm afraid it will be very troublesome to leave then."

Liu Hong nodded: "It seems that Mr. Su is a little impatient?"

Su Rendao: "Yes, I can't trust my life in your hands. I have too much hatred for you, but I have no hatred against the Huns. The sooner I see the Huns, the sooner I can feel at ease."

"So that's what you think, aren't you afraid that the Huns will kill you?"

"Afraid! I'm afraid of anyone who kills me, but I can bring benefits to them, why should they kill me? Maybe when the time comes, I let the Huns kill you, and they will be willing."

Liu Hong hiccuped, apparently speechless by what Su Ren said. What kind of virtues are the Huns, no! It should be said what kind of virtues are the superiors, Liu Hong saw clearly. His father, Liu An, sacrificed his whole family for his dream of being emperor.

As a means of blocking, this kind of thing doesn't only happen in the Han Dynasty. In fact, Liu Hong's current master, Zuo Guli Wang Yin Zhixie, is very similar to his father. The difference is that his father overestimated his own strength.

"Can you tell me why you surrendered to Yin Zhixie instead of the military minister Shanyu?"

Liu Hong took a deep breath and calmed down: "Weren't you optimistic about Emperor Liu Che at the beginning? It was just about choosing the right team. I couldn't choose between Liu Che and my father. Why not choose the right one this time?

"

"It seems you are very confident!"

"What do you think?" Liu Hong smiled slightly: "Oh, I forgot, you have been in the frontier for a short time, and you don't know the situation of the Xiongnu yet, but I can tell you that Yu Dan is definitely not a good choice."

"Why? Isn't he King Youguli of the Xiongnu, or the prince?"

"Why does this sound so awkward when it comes from Mr. Su's mouth?" Liu Hong looked at Su Ren in disbelief: "Even if the emperor has rebels, let alone a prince who has not yet waited for the position of Shanyu! Yu Shanyu

If he is too weak and the Chanyu doesn't like him, even if he can be a Chanyu, he will eventually be pushed down."

"Who? Yin Zhixie?"

Liu Hong didn't say any more, stood up slowly, patted his butt, turned and walked out the door. When he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and stared at Su Ren closely for a long time.

Su Ren had a harmless expression on his face: "Thank you Mr. Liu for the fine wine. I'll treat you to Erguotou when you have the chance!"

After Yu Shan learned that Su Ren had been kidnapped, he was immediately furious. If Zhang Junyue hadn't stopped him, he would have sent the entire tribe out to find someone. This was his territory, and his friends or partners were being kidnapped.

, where does this put his face? Especially after he heard that that person also knew Su Ren and said that their king wanted to see Su Ren, the first person Yu Shan thought of was his uncle Yin Zhixie

.

On the grassland, the one who is most knowledgeable about any information is Yin Zhixie. Yin Zhixie knows some things earlier than Shanyu. This is why he can respond and take measures in advance when Shanyu asks. This is also true.

Because of this, Shan Yu had great trust in his younger brother and gave the best pasture to Yin Zhixie, but he did not like his son Yu Shan very much.

Su Ren was building a large-scale construction site in Mayi outside Yanmen Pass. It was impossible for Yin Zhixie not to know about such a big thing. Yu Shan also thought about what kind of methods Yin Zhixie would use to deal with him, but he never expected that Yin Zhixie would use it to deal with him.

Zhi Xie actually dared to send people to his territory to kidnap him, which was beyond Yu Shan's expectation.

"Attila, what can you do? If anything goes wrong with Su Ren, we will really be dead!"

Attila is Zhang Junyue's Hun name. He crooked one arm and approached Yu Shan: "Your Majesty, in the vast grassland, even if you scatter all your troops, you may not be able to find them. Even if you find them, if those

The person who kidnapped Mr. Su threatened you with Mr. Su, so what can you do? Since we already know who is behind it, why not tell Shan Yu about this?"

Yu Shan wondered: "Tell Father Khan? Why?"

Attila smiled mysteriously: "We can't do anything to King Zuogu Li, but the Chanyu can. As long as the Chanyu asks King Zuoguli to hand over Su Ren, how can King Zuoguli not do it?"

"In that case, wouldn't Su Ren be taken under the command of Father Khan? What good would it do to us?"

Attila said: "It is of no benefit to us, but it is also of no benefit to King Zuogu Li!" (To be continued)
