"Get, get the wine —"
Yuan Xin squinted his eyes drunkenly. The skin above his neck was flushed due to the smell of alcohol, and he did not forget to mutter.
"Where is he? Where is he? Hurry up and get the wine — "
He thought he was shouting loudly, but in fact, his voice was as soft as a mosquito, almost coming out from his mouth.
Yuan Xin lay sprawled on the bed of the commander, half of his body in the bed, and the other half outside.
Although the alcohol content of the current wine was not high, and women who did not know how to drink could drink half a bottle, Yuan Xin drank in "jars". No matter how good his capacity was, he could not resist drinking like a whale or a dragon. It was common for him to get drunk. At this moment, he was very drunk, and his body was sweating. He tore off his armor to cool down. It was still hot, so he pulled open his clothes —
The alcohol took over his mind, and he fell into a deep sleep. In a blur of consciousness, he heard a few words coming from outside.
"… I … have an urgent matter … Yes, an urgent matter, I must discuss it with the general face to face …"
The person who spoke was Deputy General B. Behind him was a soldier with his shoulders shrunk and head bowed. The soldier seemed to be very afraid of strangers, and kept looking at the ground without raising his head. It was late, and the soldiers guarding the main tent were also sleepy. They asked a few questions and let them in.
Before entering, Deputy General B. did not forget to remind them.
"The general has been in a bad mood these days. Keep your spirits up, don't be distracted."
The guard smiled flatteringly, "I know, I won't be distracted."
Although he said so, when Deputy General B. brought people in, the soldiers guarding on both sides yawned lazily, and became even more sleepy.
Deputy General B. was in the main tent, and it was safe enough. The brothers could also take the opportunity to slack off.
Deputy General B. entered the tent with the soldier. The "soldier" raised his head and puffed out his chest. It was the detained Deputy General A!
A thunderous snoring came into the ears of the two. They looked at each other, walked around the screen from both sides, and entered the sleeping quarters inside the tent.
Yuan Xin was sleeping soundly, his chest rising and falling, and his snoring rhythmically.
Deputy General A's eyes were fierce, and he murmured, "God is helping me, he actually took off his armor —"
Soon after, he grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.
If Yuan Xin had been wearing armor that protected all the vital parts of his body, they wouldn't have been able to land a hit on him. Yuan Xin's struggle might have alerted the guards outside. Who would have thought that Yuan Xin would be so cooperative? He was completely defenseless. Wasn't he a lamb waiting to be slaughtered?
He winked at Deputy General B. The two of them exchanged glances and understood each other's intentions.
The two of them were good brothers who had supported each other until now. They could understand each other with just a look.
Due to Yuan Xin's usual intimidation, they didn't dare to openly kill him. Not only did they lighten their steps, they even held their breaths.
Deputy General B was only three steps away from Yuan Xin. He seized the opportunity and rushed forward.
She used her hands to cover Yuan Xin's mouth and nose, then flipped over and pressed down on Yuan Xin's body, using the strength of her legs to press down on his shoulders.
Assistant General A also moved. He pulled out the dagger hidden in his bosom. A cold white light flashed in the air, the blade about to kiss Yuan Xin's neck.
Yuan Xin felt difficult to breathe in his sleep, and there was a heavy weight on his body. He subconsciously struggled to open his eyes and saw two ferocious faces. Yuan Xin was shocked and a sense of danger surged in his heart. Before he could overturn Deputy Commander B who was suppressing him, Deputy Commander A had already raised his sword and cut his throat. Blood spurted out with a "puff" sound.
The two of them were sprayed by Yuan Xin's blood, but they didn't care. Deputy General A increased his strength until the blade was stuck in Yuan Xin's neck bone. Deputy General B turned over, and Deputy General A pulled out the knife and stabbed Yuan Xin's chest a few more times.
"Enough, quickly pack up and leave!"
Deputy General B couldn't stand it and quickly stopped his companion from abusing the corpse.
Yuan Xin was already dead. Even if Almighty Immortal came, he wouldn't be able to save him. Why waste time on this kind of thing?
Deputy General A retracted his hand and peeled off his bloody outer clothes. Before leaving, he turned his head and spat on Yuan Xin's body.
Deputy General B adjusted his expression. His heart was beating like a drum, but he looked as if nothing had happened.
The soldier on guard smelled the blood on the two. He raised his eyebrows and was about to ask.
Deputy General B smiled bitterly, "The general is not in a good mood. I'll go back and apply some hemostatic medicine …"
The soldier on guard suddenly understood. Yuan Xin was too violent these days. He often beat, scolded, and whipped people. Many people who went in were injured.
He looked sympathetically at Deputy General B and let him go without further questioning.
The two had just walked a few steps when a soldier on guard opened his mouth in surprise.
"Just now … I didn't seem to hear any movement in the tent?"
Deputy General B's heart trembled. He still pretended to be calm and moved forward, but his steps were slightly messy.
At this time, someone shouted.
"Quickly take them down, it's a trap!"
When Deputy General B and Deputy General A heard the words behind them, they immediately lost their sense of propriety and ran forward rudely, bumping into a group of patrolling soldiers.
Their abnormal behavior was seen by the soldiers. Whether it was a trap or not, they had to capture them first.
Although the two were strong, two fists couldn't fight against four hands. They were quickly captured.
At this time, someone felt something was wrong. There was such a big commotion outside. Why didn't General Yuan Xin show any signs of anger?
He gathered his courage and opened the tent. The thick smell of blood in the air caused his expression to change. He took three steps forward to take a look.
"Ah — —"
A sharp and short scream attracted everyone's attention.
Nie Xun had just fallen asleep when he received the news. When he heard that the two deputy generals had murdered General Yuan Xin, he was shocked. Disregarding his injuries, he stubbornly went over to take a look. The military doctor could only compromise and let the two soldiers support him to prevent his wounds from reopening.
Except for certain circumstances, Nie Xun was a very obedient and cooperative patient.
His wounds were very deep, but these days he had been obediently recuperating and drinking medicine. Coupled with his young body, the wounds healed quickly.
At this time, the wounds had begun to scab and he could occasionally walk a few steps.
As long as there were no big movements or violent emotional changes, he should be fine.
"Why did you murder the General?"
Nie Xun looked at Yuan Xin's corpse, his eyes filled with shock and fear.
Deputy General A had used a lot of force. Yuan Xin's neck had been cut open. The lower half of his body lay on the bed and the upper half outside. Because his head was hanging in the air, it revealed half a bloody cross-section. Blood flowed all over the ground. Yuan Xin was dead. Even as he died, his eyes were wide open, staring unwillingly at the top of the tent.
The two deputy generals were tied up. Their faces were ashen and their wretched appearance made it impossible to tell that they had once been valiant.
