It took a long time for the moon to set before the cold stars in the sky lit up, or in other words, human eyes were able to get used to the darker environment.Guo Jia could see a large number of leaves blown down by the night wind, and he could also clearly see the blood that was gradually congealing on the ground.

A thin figure in strange armor stood in the middle of the reflective pool of blood, pointing an equally strange round tube at him.

Although he didn't know what kind of weapon it was, the blood in Guo Jia's whole body froze in an instant, his hair stood on end, and there was a sharp whistling sound in his brain.

Of course he recognized this face. He had seen this face countless times on the sacred high platform of the Academy, and had also seen this face countless times in the fields and in the medicine shop and medical hall.This face is always compassionate, equal and tolerant, honest and kind, and it is simply the projection of the most glorious and flawless god in this world.

But now it's completely different!

The once-perfect god stood in the barren forest, with blood on his feet, expressionless face, and dark eyes, as if everything she was watching was a dead thing that was doomed long ago.

I saw the demon behind the god.Under the sparse and cold starlight, Guo Jia couldn't restrain his chattering teeth.The sense of crisis of death was so clear that he couldn't even think of running away.

Then the woman's expression softened.

"Ah...it's Fengxiao..."

The killing intent subsided, Guo Jia didn't bother to touch the cold sweat on his forehead, and saluted first: "Jia, see you Jia——"

"Could you please help me move the body?"

what?

"quick."

what?

Two quarters of an hour later, Guo Jia dragged the foot of a dead body to the open space in front of the rock. "Huh, huh—" he was panting with exhaustion, "Fifteen, this is the last one. Huh—"

Finally arrived at the destination, Guo Jia let go, let the corpse's feet hit the fallen leaves directly, and then supported his waist with one hand and yelled "Aiyo aiyo" twice.He raised his eyes to look at A Sheng who was leaning against a dead tree unmoved, and cautiously tried: "You don't want me to dig a hole to bury them, do you? Please do me a favor, can we make it through with fire?"

At this time, the hostility on Ah Sheng's body has receded a lot. She held the sniper rifle, and her voice had the usual peaceful feeling: "I remember that when I was in Xu County a long time ago, you asked me, what is the truth in the world?" Are there any living saints?"

"Jia—"

"You are right. The person who is worshiped on the high platform is not a saint, but a fearful guide." Ah Sheng took two steps forward and walked to the center of all the corpses.She seemed to be walking very hard, and there was a slight mechanical friction sound along with her steps.Then she held out her hand.

Guo Jia watched fifteen corpses slowly disappear under the starry sky. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief. When he looked up again, there were no corpses on the ground. He almost suspected that the Shura field he saw just now was a dream of his own.

Guo Jia is a person who doesn't believe in strange powers, so he was quite frightened. He pointed at A Sheng as if he had seen a ghost: "You, you, you, you..." But then he discovered that A Sheng's weapon and his strange body The armor is gone.

Mr. Zhonghua was wearing a set of white singlet and trousers. The wind blew away her scattered black hair, revealing a huge wound on her left shoulder, which went all the way down to her chest.Blood spread on the white cloth at an extremely frightening speed.

"You are seriously injured!" Guo Jia subconsciously stepped up and supported the woman's precarious body.Only now did he realize that until just now, it was that strange armor that supported her.

"Is this the wound left by Zhang Fei's axe?" Guo Jia's voice changed due to nervousness. To be honest, even if he was facing the ever-changing fighting skills in front of the battle, it was not as weird and difficult to control as what happened this night.

Ah Sheng half-closed his eyes and smiled, and a small voice rang in Guo Jia's ear: "You are right, I am not a saint. So..."

Guo Jia couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.The premonition of being cheated is very clear, but it is more of a sense of security, the sense of security after knowing the truth that is difficult for ordinary people to touch.

"...I'll trouble you for the aftermath." She closed her eyes completely, and her exhausted body slid down, as if sinking into a swamp.

When Ah Sheng woke up again, he was on the bumpy carriage.The morning light penetrated through the gaps in the fabric, showing a transitional color between cyan and light gold.The wound has been bandaged briefly, but with the bumps of the car, there is still a steady stream of blood oozing out.

His mind was in a daze, and the space jade pendant hanging on his chest was so hot that it would scald someone.Even if he didn't go in, Ah Sheng could still imagine the scene in the space: the water surface was stained red by corpses, and the pink color spread all the way to the sky.There may also be a frantic mechanical voice screaming in the air, "Warning! Warning! The vital signs have reached a critical point! The mission is about to fail! The mission is about to fail!"

This kind of nonsensical imagining of secondary school made a smile on the corner of her mouth, and then affected her wound, causing a burst of pain that made people feel numb.

Really realistic.

"Water..." she said, her voice was much softer than she imagined.

But with her voice, the carriage stopped abruptly.Then there was a "dong" sound of feet landing on the ground, and then, the curtain was lifted, revealing Guo Jia's face with dark circles.

"Zhong... Duke Zhonghua, hold on." Guo Jia handed a pottery bowl filled with water to Ah Sheng's mouth, but the sad expression on his face made Ah Sheng feel that he was about to die.

Her mouth was really dry, she might have been in a coma for a long time, but the wound on her chest could not allow her to drink water.So the simplest "drinking" action is not much worse than cross-country with loads.

In two lifetimes, she had never suffered such a severe physical injury.

"Where are you going?" After drinking the water, Ah Sheng's voice finally became clearer.Although his body is still fluttering, he can communicate with a calm mind.

Guo Jia helped her tuck in the blanket, lowered her head halfway: "Mr. Zhonghua was seriously injured, and the medical officers in Cheng County and Rencheng only stopped the bleeding temporarily. They asked me to send you back to Xu County as soon as possible. Once you come to Xu County The medicinal materials are the most complete and the medical skills are the best, and secondly, if something unexpected happens, you can see the lord for the last time."

This kid can be so straightforward sometimes.

Ah Sheng coughed, his wound was torn open, and the smell of blood in the car instantly intensified by two points.

A trace of panic flashed across Guo Jia's face, but he immediately realized that he had no medical skills, so he could only stand and pretend that everything was under control.

"Just you, no guards?"

"No one else is as fast as my horse. Thanks to Zhonghua Gong's construction, the people on both sides of the new road protect each other, and it is very peaceful."

Ah Sheng leaned his head against the wall of the carriage and closed his eyes: "Thank you for your hard work."

You really don't worry about me.Guo Jia's breath stuck in his throat and he couldn't get it up.After being stunned for a moment, he returned to the driving seat and sat down. "Mr. Zhonghua, if you persevere, you will be able to arrive in Changyi at noon, and you will be able to change your medicine and eat."

If it is not for the physical condition, this will be a refreshing journey.Five years of painstaking efforts paid her great reward at this time.From Dacheng to Dacheng, every station along the way, every medical hall, even every elementary school, and every village extended a warm helping hand to her.

The people whose families have become a little more prosperous are not stingy when facing the "Cao" flag.Wherever they stopped for a while, people who heard the news would bring ginger soup, eggs, tofu, noodles, and even local wine and spicy oil, which Ah Sheng couldn't bear at all.

In the end, Guo Jia's polite words of rejecting the gift were as skillful as turning the wheels of a cart.

Ah Sheng was asleep most of the time, and the rumor of "Mr. Zhonghua was injured" had spread along both sides of Xindao at an alarming speed.On the night they entered Changyi, they met the spy personnel who came to meet them.They not only mobilized antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs, but also replaced Guo Jia's horses.

The more you enter the affluent area, the better the medical and road conditions will be.After passing Dingtao, Ah Sheng was able to pull himself together and speak two long sentences.

On both sides are wilderness.Only Guo Jia, with two thousand-mile horse-drawn carts, galloped quickly on the new road alone.

With a thousand-mile horse-drawn cart, anyone who loves horses will have to say something crazy.But Guo Jia is not a horse lover, he is Guo Jia.He cared more about the disappearing corpses than the horses.He was afraid that something miraculous would happen again when Ah Sheng was in a coma, so he insisted on rejecting the kindness of the troops along the way, and went on the road alone at the expense of horsepower.

Besides, what they are talking about now is really inconvenient for a third party to hear.

"The spies in your hands are all over the world. Where do you need to do it yourself?" Guo Jia asked while waving his horsewhip.

"You asked in the wrong order." Ah Sheng was wearing a blue-gray robe, half lying down and half sitting in the carriage. In order to reduce the weight, the size of the carriage was a bit cramped, and it was impossible for her to lie down. "You should first ask me why I killed Liu Bei."

Guo Jia followed the good example: "Why did you kill Liu Bei? I thought you were the type of person who would rather die than fight. You said that you are seeking the way and the country. As for the war and the people, It's about us juniors."

"The intention to kill Liu Bei was when he was the county magistrate in Yu County. Liu Bei caressed Nongsang, avenged grievances and solved problems, and he was very popular in Yu County." A Changsheng let out a sigh of relief, "But when he left, Yu The people in the county only know that there is Liu Bei, but they don’t know that there is a law. Because they are afraid of being exploited by his successor, there are hundreds of families crying and wanting to leave with him.”

Only then did Guo Jia vaguely understand what was going on: "So you transferred him to Xu County as the prefect of Yingchuan. On the surface it was Gao Sheng, but in fact it was to isolate him from the people."

The sound of breathing was heard regularly in the carriage, and it took a long time before the voice continued to come out: "To me, being ambitious is nothing; being talented is nothing. But Liu Bang, Liu Xiu, and even Liu Bei , Their scary thing is that they can rekindle the confidence of the leader of Guizhou in the rule of man."

The people in the carriage let out a mocking laugh, followed by a muffled groan involving the wound. "Of course I can let him go, and then face the battle openly. Under the blows of me and my brother, he will be like a lost dog, unable to gain a foothold on the same land for more than ten years. But, Feng Xiao, as long as he stays Where it passes, humans will become lazy.

"How hard it is to popularize knowledge and learn the law; how hard it is to see hatred dialectically and rationally; how hard it is to fight for your own destiny. The foundation of my rule is infinitely weaker, because there is nothing more difficult than belief in a hero, a merciful savior, and It will be easier for descendants with the same surname as him. This kind of influence will be passed down from generation to generation along with Liu Bei's story, and even 100 or 1000 years cannot be eliminated.

"He's destroying my Word."

Guo Jia couldn't say a word for a long time.He had read all of Cao Xue's works, but this was the first time he was clearly moved by this idea.

And the voice in the carriage continued, because the content of the speech this time was really long, and it had already faintly trembled: "I use political assassination, of course it is infringing on my bottom line. This kind of thing can be done once or twice. , but for Liu Bei, I can only leave him the only chance."

"One or two?" Guo Jia keenly grasped the point.The carriage continued to run forward, and the autumn sun hung high, which seemed extremely precious in this increasingly cold season. "The offspring who believe in the same surname..." Guo Jia suddenly came to his senses, and a creepy feeling enveloped his whole body, "Could it be that Emperor Han..."

"I don't know whether it's right or wrong to do so. But standing at the bifurcation point of history, only I can make the choice. Feng Xiao, you are at the right time, and it is your unshirkable responsibility to record my true face in the annals of history."

Guo Jia was speechless.All the shock turned into powerlessness.You fucking really believe me.

The last sigh came from the carriage, almost inaudible, but Guo Jia did hear it clearly.

"It is so important to bear the fate of the people and bear the fate of a thousand years."

I can't see it, but that person is probably in tears.

So Guo Jia also sighed, and drove the carriage all the way west.Not yet 25, but Guo Jia feels that he is already old, as old as 1000 years.

As for the question of "why come here in person", it is already too superficial.Maybe it's because she wants to remind herself with the blood on her hands, maybe it's because she wants to protect those spy personnel who in her opinion are too easy to be tempted by evil, maybe it's because she wants to bear the burden of choice alone...

But in short, this time and space has passed through another critical fork in fate without the awareness of most people.

The author has something to say: This article will come to an end after beating Yuan Shao.

I know that many people have high expectations for Liu Bei, but unfortunately, I only write the story according to my outline.

There was a discussion in the group about Ah Sheng's assassination of Liu Bei before.I am very glad that some readers who hold opposing opinions actively express their views. Your ability to think independently is one of the most valuable qualities in this information-heavy era.In contrast, whether my personal opinions can be widely accepted is a secondary matter.
