Snake Tale

The red sun fell into the mountains, and the dim sky was gradually filled by the gray wings of bats.On the post road filled with yellow sand, a procession is moving slowly.After the team led by Zui Yu left Zheng State at high speed, they quickly changed their clothes and headed towards Linzi, the capital of Qi State.Qin Wei at the front of the team raised his water bag and drank it all in one gulp. Looking at the boundless road ahead, he felt bored again.

He spurred the docile gelding under his crotch to gallop backwards.At the end of the queue, a prisoner in shackles was staggering forward, which was the reason for the slow progress of this sturdy journey.In order to avenge the trauma and humiliation suffered by Luo Yi that day, Zui Yu deliberately prolongs the trip back to Linzi, and tortures him with all means.She ordered someone to run through Luo Yi's pipa bone with an iron chain, and if he sluggishly walked for a moment, the iron chain would be pulled hard, tearing his muscles and bones and causing a piercing pain.In order to frustrate his arrogance, he refused to give him water or rice for several days, and then teased him with delicious food, hoping that the starving prisoner would beg for a bite of food, but in exchange for the other party's indifference. Then there was another flogging and beating in anger.The sky was getting warmer, and the long journey was exposed to the scorching sun, and the dust was chasing each other. The blood and sweat stains on Luo Yi's body were mixed together.There is no need to disguise himself, and now he can no longer see the traces of the high-ranking nobleman he used to be. Instead, he is a ragged, unkempt prisoner-no one will expect him to walk faster if he glances at it .

Qin Wei rode his horse and patrolled at the tail of the team, thinking about how to end this long and boring journey.He suddenly smiled slyly, pulled out the piccolo in his sleeve, and pressed his lips together to blow out a series of rapid and ups and downs, which instantly resounded through the sky.In order to convey military information quickly, different beeps are often used in the military to express specific signals.The soldiers beside Qin Wei looked at him in bewilderment, not understanding why he played the sound of "extreme emergency" for no reason?

But when the front team heard the sound, they became restless, and amidst a burst of dust, Zui Yu hurried over on horseback.After seeing that there was nothing unusual in front of her eyes, she couldn't help but have a look of suspicion on her face, and said, "Qin Wei, what are you doing?"

Qin Wei had a good time and said solemnly: "Report to the commander, just now the prisoner broke free from the shackles and tried to escape. Fortunately, I rushed up and fought bravely with him, so I tied him back to his place, safe and sound."

Drunk Fish let out a "puchi" laugh, glanced at Luo Yi, whose disheveled hair covered his face, and was on the verge of falling, and said with a lazy smile, "Isn't your way of asking for rewards too lame?"

Qin Wei smiled brightly, and said: "This is not necessarily a joke. If you follow your non-painful methods, people will escape in a few days."

Zui Yu squinted her eyes and said, "'Non-painful method'?" She swung the horsewhip quickly and tied the iron chain, dragging Luo Yiheng under the horse.The wound on his shoulder was pulled, Luo Yi suddenly let out a muffled groan of severe pain, fell to the ground, curled up in a ball and shivered.Zui Yu smiled and said: "Look at this embarrassment! Hmph, I just punished him lightly and made him look useless. If it wasn't against Madam's will, why would he take his life?" Stay until today?"

Qin Wei said: "Does Madam have an order to save Luo Yi's life before arriving in Linzi?"

Drunken Fish resentfully said: "Not bad!"

Qin Wei said: "Does that mean that as long as his life is spared, you can do anything to him?"

Zui Yu's eyes flickered, and he said, "Do you have any new tricks?"

Qin Wei laughed and said, "Luo Yi has practiced martial arts for many years, so this kind of physical punishment is nothing but commonplace to him, so what's the fun in it? If I were you, I would treat him well with delicious food and wine, so that he would be refreshed and turn all sentient beings upside down in the past." Show off your skills—"

Zui Yu was overjoyed: "Wait, wait, what did you just say?"

Qin Wei pretended to be surprised and said: "Haven't you heard of it? Our brave Lord Luo was also a 'cunning boy' who favored the palace when he was young!"

Zui Yu stared blankly for a moment, with both shock and disgust on his face, he asked anxiously, "What did you say?"

Qin Wei smiled and said: "This is a long story. You must have heard that in order to avoid the pursuit of the princes of Qi, the wife and the young son once lived in the country of Xia; but you may not know that after the madam After borrowing Xia Guo's troops to go north, the young master who stayed behind in Xia Guo became Xiahou's guest..." He said, looking down at Luo Yi, but he saw him lying in the dust, as indifferent as a rock , He seemed to turn a deaf ear to it, and couldn't help being narrow-minded, thinking: "I'd like to see how far he can endure it?" Then he joked with Zui Yu vividly: "There are rumors that Xiahou built a large palace for him. In Yaotai, people competed with each other in color and appearance, favored day and night, so that the country and the country were abandoned, and the ancestral temple was eventually destroyed by the barbarians. I heard that the people of the Wei Snake tribe are very talented, and some young men are also proficient in the way of "replenishment". There are miraculous skills in it, no wonder it makes people eat their marrow and taste, and they can't stop! Drunk fish must also be willing to open their eyes?"

Blush flushed on the cheeks like suet of a drunken fish, and he said angrily, "You're talking nonsense again!"

Qin Wei smiled and said: "If it's true or not, you'll know if you try it. It just so happens that I have an interesting prescription in my hand. There is no lack of vigorous and strong men here, why don't you ask Lord Luo to help us revive the old summer palace?" What about his demeanor? It would be an honor for him if he could give Qing a smile."

Although Luo Yi is now in the prison, extremely weak and embarrassed, Zui Yu can always feel the arrogance he treats her like nothing, which makes her brood on her for many days.If according to Qin Wei's strategy, Luo Yi can be forced to make all kinds of ugly behaviors of flattery and pity, wouldn't it be better to humiliate him and vent his own anger?Zui Yu laughed so hard that his flowers trembled, and said: "If it's really what you said, what's the harm in seeing it? Someone! Let him—"

Before he could finish speaking, he heard the steed under his crotch neighing mournfully, and the world spun in an instant, and even the horse and man were overturned to the ground.Before she could react, the wind howled in her ears, and several loops of iron chains were tightly wrapped around her neck!Zui Yu only felt a sharp pain in his throat, and was strangled until he almost passed out.

In the blink of an eye, the soldiers were in an uproar and horrified. They raised their troops in formation one after another, but they dared not move rashly.Qin Wei stared at Luo Yi who was behind Zuiyu, but when he saw those deep blue eyes, did he ever look depressed?He couldn't help smiling and said: "In the past few days, you really are deliberately showing weakness."

Zui Yu struggled bitterly: "Let go of me! Otherwise, I will report to Madam and teach you that your dog's life will not be guaranteed!"

Luo Yi gave a soft "tsk" and said, "You're such an idiot—if I didn't want to, you really think you can catch me?"

Zui Yu was stunned, but Luo Yi sneered coldly, "You are the only one who can't see that presenting the stone letter and entering Linzi today is a tacit agreement reached between my wife and I. But you think it's the Your feats, showing off like a clown along the way, haha, it really makes people laugh!"

Zui Yu's face was livid, and he screamed: "You nonsense! Madam is perceptive and rewards you for your merits, and she will definitely, definitely treat me—" She turned to Qin Wei, but saw a half-smile on his lips, looking at her eyes. Like mockery, but also like pity, it seems to acquiesce that what Luo Yi said is not bad.

Luo Yi said: "With your aptitude, it's no wonder that you have served Mrs. Zishuo loyally for nearly ten years, but you have never been reused, and you are still not worth a penny. Instead, you have been caught up by foreigners like Qin Wei, and you have been oppressed everywhere. ..."

Seeing that Zui Yu recalled all kinds of disappointments, Qin Wei really cast a jealous look at him, and couldn't help but secretly sighed in his heart that Luo Yi had so much provocation skills.How could he not know that on the surface, Luo Yi was trying to drive a wedge between the two of them, but in fact he was encouraging him to acquiesce in killing Zui Yu immediately in order to avoid future troubles.Although Qin Wei has no affection for Zuiyu, this is not the best time to kill her.Once Zui Yu died, he had to replace him as the commander of the team. Wouldn't it be a lot less fun to be carefree and blame others?

However, although he intends to protect Zuiyu, he has no confidence in making Luo Yi obediently obey his orders.Zui Yu has been repeatedly humiliated in Luo Yi's hands. If Luo Yi lets go, no one can guarantee that Zui Yu will not retaliate with the most vicious and cruel means in anger. Luo Yi may be in danger of his life at that time—fortunately, Qin Wei knew someone who was capable of persuading Luo Yi.

He calmly stepped out from behind the protection of the soldiers, walked up to Luo Yi, stretched out his palm and smiled at him, "What do you think this is?"

Zui Yu looked intently, but saw a strangely shaped copper coin lying in Qin Wei's palm.

Qin Wei smiled and said: "As long as you let the drunk fish go - when the deal proposed by the boss, I will respond to everything."

Zui Yu only felt the breathing of the person behind him tightened, and after a long time, he let out a low growl of resentment and annoyance—the iron chain around his neck was suddenly tightened, and Zui Yu's throat was rattled, but he felt The pain in her temples was excruciating, her eyes were gradually bloody red, and her neck bones were about to be broken——suddenly, a strong force from behind pinned her to the ground, her cheeks were cut by gravel, but the restraint of her throat disappeared .She was reborn after the catastrophe, gasping for breath, struggling to turn her head around, but saw Luo Yi grabbing him without saying a word, letting the soldiers swarming up to crush her heavily in the dust.

Zuiyu's resentment could not be dispelled, and the great humiliation and helplessness drove her into a frenzy, screaming that Luo Yi would be hacked into pieces.Qin Wei walked over gently, stroked her shoulder and comforted her softly, and said in a soft voice: "Why do you have to be angry about this kind of ants and insects...Naturally, naturally, I have to teach this bastard... Mo, 劓, patella, Gong , Dabi, you can do whatever you want, but if it’s too light, you won’t understand your hatred, if it’s too heavy, you’re afraid of disobeying your wife, for the current plan, I’m afraid there is only..."

She heard a broken and sharp scream from her throat: "Come here! Smash his patella for me!" She clutched her bruised neck tightly, and stared bitterly at the man who was being escorted by all the soldiers. Luo Yi from the ground said grimly, "I want him to crawl through the mud like a dog for the rest of his life..."
