Chapter 188 The dawn of hope to the abyss of despair
Looking at the personal soldiers who fell heavily to the ground like a soft-skinned snake, everyone's eyes were filled with horror and confusion.
I was shocked because everyone realized this time that this was definitely not a fool. Yan Fei was holding a real guy!
The reason is that they don’t understand why Yan Fei was just a person, but he was able to pick up the cannon that could only be dragged by a cow? Is the legendary power of the nine ox and two tigers real?
Yan Fei didn't care what they were thinking, and he had no sympathy or sympathy for these guards who only served their masters but did not care about the country and nation. In history, these people surrendered to the alien army with their masters, and then turned their butcher knives and slaughtered their compatriots, and were definitely traitors.
Yan Fei quickly stepped forward, grabbed the cannon barrel with both hands and rushed directly into the crowd that had escaped the disaster under Gatlin's strafing.
Without gorgeous moves and fancy moves, you just simply throw the cannon barrel and smash it everywhere. You will smash it when you see someone. No matter what kind of armor you wear, what kind of shield you hold, or various weapons you hold to resist, you will directly smash it, smash it and smash it and smash it and fly.
Yan Fei swung his cannon barrel and kept moving forward on the street like a windmill. All the humanoid creatures around him were destroyed like an egg shell hitting a hammer under the heavy cannon barrel.
Gatlin killed about half of his personal soldiers and servants before. When Yan Fei was bleeding all over his body, he dragged two of them soaked in blood and turned into a bright red color, and at the same time, there was no sign of standing on the street with various cannon tubes stained with them.
In addition to being killed by Gatlin and Yan Fei with a cannon barrel, hundreds of guards from various meritorious residences were completely scared and they never thought about the matter of the beautiful concubines in the Chinese houses and the Qinhuai River. They all threw away the things in their hands and turned around and ran away.
"Ph!" Yan Fei casually put the cannon barrel on the ground, watching the crowd screaming and fleeing, spitting heavily, "A bunch of waste!"
Yan Fei waved to the musketeers not far away, then pointed to the fleeing guards. A large number of musketeers immediately rushed out and chased the crowd who violated the agreement like a tide.
"Are you satisfied now?" Yan Fei stepped in front of the nobles who looked dull and looked like a ghost. "According to our previous agreement, I won. So, you can die now."
"I don't want to die!!!"
"Governor-General, please spare me!"
"The young man is willing to serve the great governor!"
"My mother~~~"
The nobles who were frightened by Yan Fei's words started to scream like the sky collapsed and the earth broke, crying and shouting. When death was about to come, these nobles who were born rich finally felt a feeling called fear. This feeling was really never felt for them.
Seeing that several guys were starting to wet their pants, Yan Fei waved his hand in disgust. He pulled off his clothes that were already soaked in blood and threw them on the ground. "Look, we made an agreement before, but now that the agreement is reached, we must abide by it. Otherwise, what's the point of making an agreement? Are you right?"
"Grandmaster!" Xu Wenjue, who was trembling like a sieve, knelt in front of Yan Fei with a thud. "Please give me a way to live, gold, silver, silk, rare treasures, fertile fields and houses, beautiful and handsome men. As long as we are willing to give it to the Governor, I hope the Governor will give me a high hand and let me go for a way to live!!!"
"Please spare my life to the Grand Governor!" All of these nobles fell to the ground and kowtowed to Yan Fei repeatedly, and many people kowtowed and their foreheads were bleeding. I guess they had never been so serious when worshiping their ancestors in the past. If Yan Fei really didn't give up, they would be really dead!
Everything you have, the mighty power and endless luxury life, the gorgeous courtyard and garden, and the beautiful women are all gone. An atmosphere called despair completely enveloped the place. Therefore, these nobles cry out when begging, and the weakness and pitifulness are enough to make any kind-hearted person look at it.
As for the bad impact of violating the previous agreement, it’s a big deal in the face of life and death!
"No." Yan Fei, who took the towel handed over by the guard, wiped his body with blood stains, used only two words to completely shatter all the hopes of the nobles!
Seeing the musketeers leaning over to catch people, Xu Wenjue, who was in despair, touched something in his arms while sitting on the ground. Then he grabbed a life-saving straw while drowning and shouted loudly, "I have the iron coupon of the alchemy book sent by Emperor Taizu! I have the iron coupon of the alchemy book!!"
When Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, he was awarded great honors to the heroes, six dukes and twenty-eight marquises. These people were given alchemy iron vouchers by Zhu Yuanzhang, saying that they could be spared from death when they committed a death sentence. At this time, the nobles here were all descendants of those marquises back then, so naturally everyone had this thing.
Before coming here this time, these nobles were worried that there would be an accident, so they brought the iron vouchers of the alchemy books that had been worshipped by the ancestors of the family temple for many years. At this time, facing a critical moment of life and death, these people even took out such things in order to save their lives.
"Huh?" Yan Fei knew that the so-called gold medal for death did not exist, but the iron coupon of the alchemy book was indeed there. He had never seen it before. "Take it over and let me see."
Xu Wenjue handed the iron voucher of his family's alchemy book to a musketeer with trembling hands, looking at the metal document with hope. Thinking that his ancestors had spirits in heaven could bless him to pass this level, he would definitely sincerely worship his ancestors in the future and invite monks to increase incense for their ancestors.
Seeing this, other nobles also handed over their own elixir vouchers, hoping that their ancestors could save themselves.
The iron coupon of the alchemy book is made of iron, which is probably wider than an A4 paper. The front is engraved with time and the emperor's system, and then praises the recipient's official position, title and title, and how important it is to praise the recipient's merits. There is no way to reward the rewards on merits. Therefore, the grant of the iron coupon of the alchemy book means that in addition to the crime of rebellion, the descendants can avoid death three times or several times, and the descendants can avoid death once or twice. As well as the words of encouragement to the recipient.
Yan Fei looked over the iron coupon and saw that there was a word engraved on the back, saying, "If you commit a death sentence, you will not pay any money." It seems that avoiding death is not for nothing, but the price is that you will lose all your salary. However, in this era, the nobles have long since relied on their salary to make a living.
Yan Fei put the iron vouchers in his hand on the chair beside him, looking at the nobles with hopeful faces, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "It's true, it also says that descendants can avoid death."
Hearing Yan Fei's words, the nobles all breathed a sigh of relief. Many people even started crying because they survived death. For example, Xu Wenjue and several others immediately kowtowed hard to the night sky, shouting with tears in their eyes for their protection.
The scene was really lively. I thought I would die without a doubt, but I didn’t expect that the ancestors would work at critical moments. This is what it means to be born well. Having a good ancestor is really more important than anything else.
"Have you read the words on the iron voucher of the alchemy book?" Just as the nobles cried with joy, and some even shouted that they would treat them to the Qinhuai River without getting drunk, Yan Fei, who had changed into a clean dress, suddenly said this, which instantly calmed the scene.
"What does the Grand Governor mean?" Xu Wenjue's heart broke out and he hurriedly asked in a low voice.
"I said, have you ever read what is written on this iron voucher in the alchemy book?" Yan Fei picked up his thermos and drank a sip of water, looking at them with a funny look. "These things have been kept in your house for more than 200 years, right? Don't tell me that you have never read what is written on it."
"This..." The nobles looked at each other. The iron vouchers of the alchemy books were indeed kept in their own homes for many years. But this thing is usually enshrined in the ancestral temple. Who would take it out when you have nothing to do? Moreover, this is a gift from the imperial court, and it is not allowed to move around in the air except for worshipping it.
Moreover, this thing is not available on weekdays. In fact, it is the first time I have used it today for more than 200 years. What is written on it is a general understanding of it after hearing others say, but no one has read it in detail as to carefully study it.
"I'll read a passage for you." Yan Fei picked up a pill book and glanced at it, and said with a smile, "I'm here: All deaths can be avoided except for rebellion."
Yan Fei swayed the iron coupon of the alchemy book in his hand, and the smile in his eyes became even more intense. "Do you understand?"
The iron coupon of the alchemy book can indeed be avoided from death, but Zhu Yuanzhang made a foreshadowing here. That is, if the rebellion is involved, it will be invalid. If you commit a death penalty if you kill someone on weekdays, you can use the iron coupon of the alchemy book to avoid death. But the rebellion cannot be done.
In fact, with the status and power of these nobles, killing an ordinary person is as simple as killing a chick, so how can you use this kind of thing?
After hearing Yan Fei's words, the dull-headed people were still inexplicably, and they couldn't understand what Yan Fei meant. The flexible-headed people had already reacted. These nobles supported King Fu to rebel against the court in the name of clearing the king's side. This was a complete rebellion that there was no negotiation. In other words, even if they took out the iron coupon of the alchemy book, it was useless. Because this thing could not compensate for the death penalty of treason.
"I don't believe it!!!" Xu Wenjue, who looked as pale as snow, roared angrily, saying that he could not believe anything that he had just seen the hope of life and was kicked out of the abyss of death again.
Yan Fei shrugged his shoulders and threw the iron voucher of Duke Wei's alchemy book over and said, "You can read it yourself."
He signaled the guards to return all the iron vouchers to the nobles, so that they could fall from hope to complete despair.
The nobles checked each word by word, and it turned out to be the same as Yan Fei said that it was impossible to rebel!
Looking at the nobles who were lying on the ground one after another, Yan Fei turned his eyes to Ni Yuanlu on the side, "Sincere assistant, is what these people do a serious crime of treason?"
"The evidence is conclusive!" Ni Yuanlu shouted loudly, "All of them are rebels!"
"Caiser Governor." Yan Fei's eyes turned to Wang Dehua, "How to punish such crime of treason?"
"Lingchi, kill the clan!"
