Chapter 165 Midnight Invitation
"Don't say you fell in love with me at first sight." Su Yiqing glanced at Zhang Qifeng, "General Zhang is not like a passionate seed."
"Of course, of course, I'm not overestimating my abilities." Zhang Qifeng smiled awkwardly, "I just want to tell the girl that the girl is a very excellent girl and doesn't have to suffer for a past that I can't help myself."
Su Yiqing looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and inexplicably remembered that the moon tonight was so similar to the moon that was held hostage. They were both so bright and so cold that they made people feel desperate.
"Thank you for your advice, it's time for me to leave." Su Yiqing suddenly lost the mood to talk, nodded and left.
At midnight, at the mass grave outside the city gate, a black shadow quietly crawled out from the ground, movting his limbs stiffly, and then walked out forward as if nothing had happened.
"Wow!" The black shadow suddenly screamed, instantly hid behind a tombstone, and poked his head out for a while.
"Hei Tan, I remember correctly. Are you calling this name?" asked the woman with black hair and black eyes and black clothes calmly.
"You, you recognize the wrong person, Miss Su, I know I'm wrong and shouldn't disturb you to rest. Please forgive me, I'll leave now, and leave now." Hei Tan was so scared that his whole body was trembling, but his feet seemed to be out of control and could not take any steps. Seeing the woman getting closer and closer, he couldn't help but kneel down and said, "Miss, I will burn more paper money for you so that you can reincarnate earlier. Please let me go."
Su Yiqing burst out and laughed, "You said I recognized the wrong person, but you know that my surname is Su? Well, Hei Tan. I am a human and not a ghost. Look at your courage, you dare to come to this mass grave."
"Are you really not a ghost?" Hei Tan was still a little confused. It was not until he saw Su Yiqing's shadow under the moonlight that he believed it. He stroked his chest and said, "People are scary, Miss Su, it's midnight. Why are you here?"
"Waiting for you." Su Yiqing said lightly.
"Wait for me?" Although the girl in front of me was very beautiful, Hei Tan didn't dare to think about anything. After turning her eyes, she said, "Miss and our second leader have a connection. Is there any place where I can serve?"
Su Yiqing said: "Yes, I want to see Jing Gang, but it is not convenient to walk too far. So I want to ask you to help bring a message. I will wait for him here at this time in two days."
"Okay, Miss Su, the youngest must bring the message." Hei Tan responded quickly, and he had no reason to refuse this.
"There can't be a fourth person to know about this." Su Yiqing reminded Hei Tan again.
"Yes. Yes, the little one will never talk too much." Hei Tan's mouth has always been strict. Otherwise, it would not be his turn to do this trip. Even if Su Yiqing didn't say it, he wouldn't dare to tell people everywhere. He then tentatively said, "Will the little one go?"
Su Yiqing nodded.
Hei Tan took two steps and couldn't help but look back again. This glance made him creepy. After turning around, there was no figure behind him. A gust of wind blew, and the shadows of trees around him swayed. Hei Tan ran away from this place at an unprecedented speed.
It's really terrible. Is this Miss Su a human or a ghost?
At dawn, Hei Tan returned to the village and relayed what he heard in Yunzhou City to Jing Gang.
Jing Gang nodded while listening. At the end, Hei Tan said again: "Brother Jing, there is one more thing... I don't know what to say."
"What does it mean to not know how to say it? Whether you hear or see it, tell the truth, don't add your own judgment." Jing Gang said lightly.
"The problem is that I don't know if I really saw or heard it, maybe it was my hallucination." Hei Tan hesitated a little. He always felt that the scene in the middle of the night was a bit unreal. If someone was a little familiar, he would definitely think that he was thinking about it every day and dreaming about it at night, or maybe it was too tired. He took a nap in the mass grave.
Jing Gang frowned: "What the hell is it? Tell me, just say it wrong as your hallucination, and I just pretend that I didn't hear it."
"Did I see Miss Su?" Hei Tan whispered, "It's that Miss Su."
"I know." Jing Gang's mood suddenly became worse. He knew a girl named Su, let alone a girl with Hei Tan. There was no one else. Now, as long as someone else mentioned the word "Su" and he could have unpleasant memories.
Hei Tan saw Jing Gang's face sinking, and he didn't know whether he should continue to say it, but then he thought that if it was really that kind of thing, if it wasn't said, maybe he would have to look for him again tonight, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I came out of the secret passage of the mass grave in the north of the city and saw her, like a ghost, with a white face and black eyes..."
"Okay, I don't care what she looks like, what are you talking about?" Jing Gang was a little impatient.
"Miss Su asked you to meet you tomorrow. It will be the same time. I will see her at the mass grave, probably midnight." Hei Tan added after saying that, "I don't know if it's my hallucination, or if I'm damn, she doesn't look like a human."
"I really hope she is a ghost." Jing Gang murmured.
He said that, the next day, Jing Gang still appeared in the mass grave as promised.
Su Yiqing appeared immediately.
"Miss Su, what's the point?" Jing Gang didn't want to talk nonsense, so he asked directly the first sentence.
Su Yiqing felt a little embarrassed. When they met last time, they had already made everything they should say. It was reasonable and she shouldn't have come to trouble others again. She evoked unpleasant memories of each other, but it was important, so she still asked with a grudge: "During the siege, did you secretly bring your brothers to help Zhang Qifeng resist?"
"So what?" Jing Gang stared in Su Yiqing's eyes.
Su Yiqing said: "How did you convince you to be the boss?"
"Is this related to the girl?" Jing Gang became impatient, "Miss Su, if you have something to do, please tell me."
Su Yiqing was in a daze, as if she had been treating others with such an attitude before. Now that she has changed roles, she actually feels something. She couldn't continue to say what she wanted to say, and lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't disturb you, I'm like I didn't say anything today."
"What are you kidding? The three of you asked me to come to this ghost place in the middle of the night. You didn't say anything, and you weren't teasing people, right?" Jing Gang's face appeared angry and kept reminding himself that there was an unarmed weak woman on the other side, otherwise he would be afraid that he would not be able to bear it, so he punched him.
Su Yiqing also realized that something was wrong and quickly said, "I want to ask you if you want to continue to cooperate with Zhang Qifeng and the others. I mean in other aspects."
Jing Gang's eyebrows tightened and said sternly: "How do you know? I mean, do you know their purpose?"
Su Yiqing nodded: "Yes, I know, but I think King Ping is not a good king. Now he is suffering from internal and external troubles. The Great Zhou is only temporarily repelled. They will make a comeback at any time. If we fight internally, it may give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it."
"You are not short of your time outside. You should know how the people live in trouble. If you don't think of a way, there will only be more and more people who become bandits." Jing Gang said lightly, "If you change to an emperor, no matter how bad it is, it will not be worse than now."
"But it does not mean that you can rob the court's rewards to the soldiers, change them to a package and pretend that they were sent by King Ping." Su Yiqing said, "You are so unkind that you even robbed the food and grass sent by the court before by you?"
Jing Gang completely lowered his face: "Miss Su, I, Jing Gang, have not done such a despicable thing. I admit that we are robbers and robbed past merchants. Not all of them have investigated before the robbers. There are really one or two unlucky ones, but those who are unknown, we only rob things and do not hurt people. When the war comes, we stop. They are all people who are fleeing with their families. How can we bear to rob? We who escaped cannot rob, and those military rations will not rob them. Please don't guess randomly."
"Jing Gang, are you really sure?" Su Yiqing said, "or it's not just you who are the heroes of the Green Forest nearby, but maybe they are someone else's doing it."
"Impossible." Jing Gang waved his hand, "I said, there are also rules on the Tao. Many things cannot be robbed. If they are robbed, they will be despised by the entire green forest and everyone will be punished. The most serious thing in the period is war grain and relief grain. Relief grain is related to the lives of millions of people affected by disasters. A bag of rice is likely to be equal to more than a dozen lives. Robbing war grain is equivalent to helping the enemy, which is equivalent to colluding with the enemy and traiting the country. I will never do these two types."
Su Yiqing didn't argue, looked at Jing Gang quietly, and suddenly asked another off-topic, "How is Su Yixiang?"
Jing Gang was stunned for a moment and said, "Diet, our boss can't tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes. Hei Tan went back to talk to the boss. The boss locked up the woman and did not allow her to argue at all. In a few days, the woman hanged her. So I said, you women or women like you who think you are noble are judged by the heart of a villain. Our brothers on the way are all licked blood from the knife. They trust each other, so that they will not allow that person to provoke brotherhood with their nonsense."
Su Yiqing was silent for a moment and said, "You said you are forty and have no son yet. I hope Su Yixiang will be a man in this baby?"
"Yes, the boss just can't rub the sand in his eyes. According to me, it's not too late to deal with the woman when the child is born." Jing Gang felt deeply guilty on his face. He was impulsive. If he hadn't believed that the boss would handle it impartially and would have made a fuss in front of all the brothers, it wouldn't have been like this.
Su Yiqing said: "I don't want to offend your boss, but as far as I know, Su Yixiang is definitely not a person who can make mistakes, especially with a child in her belly. Although you locked her up, you would not abuse her. It is unreasonable for her to hang herself at this time."
"What do you mean?" Jing Gang glared at his eyes and started to curse again. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support are my greatest motivation.)
