He lowered his head and looked at the wound on his shoulder,
He was suddenly stunned. He remembered that the scab had fallen off on this place yesterday, leaving behind a dark red circular mark,
But at this moment, only his jade-white skin was left, and there were no traces of it.
He raised his wrist in shock,
He looked at his hands.
These days, he had been wearing iron shackles, so his other injuries were improving,
Only the skin on his wrist was constantly worn out. However, at this moment,
There were only faint red marks left on the wound on his wrist,
The calluses and slight deformations on his fingers from years of writing had also disappeared without a trace,
His pair of hands were as beautiful as a piece of exquisite jade,
There were no more flaws to be found.
This body..,
Was different.
Qin Song found that he didn't feel the slightest bit surprised or shocked by this change … He really was.
Had he forgotten something?
He thought of the barrier in the dark. Obviously..,
It was not something that he could break through with his current strength..
Qin Song soaked until his skin was a little wrinkled before he came out of the bathtub,
Yu Sheng had also freshened up and was guarding outside,
Seeing him open the door,
He consciously went in to help pour the water.
Qin Song dried his hair until it was half-dry,
He combed it,
He put a thin blanket on his shoulders to block the water. He looked at Yu Sheng, who was busy beside the small stove. After a moment of silence, he said, "I don't like to live a muddle-headed life, so there are some things that I want to make clear to you first."
Yu Sheng was putting the tea set into the boiling water one by one. When he heard this, his hands paused and he said, "Go ahead."
Qin Song said, "A person who is locked up in prison will never be grateful to the prison guard who brings him food every day. Therefore, no matter how much you do for me, I will not be grateful to you. Of course, I will not be grateful to the person behind you."
No matter how attentive and considerate Yu Sheng was to him, he would not like someone sent by Qin Yue by his side. However, Qin Song also knew that no matter how much he did not like it, it would not change anything. Even if he refused to let Yu Sheng stay by his side, what was the use? There were only three possible outcomes. First, Yu Sheng would shamelessly follow him, since he couldn't defeat him. Second, Yu Sheng would go into hiding, since he was originally a secret guard. Third, Yu Sheng would go back and be punished, and Qin Yue would send a new one. No matter what the outcome was, it wouldn't be better than the current situation.
"So, first, since you're doing the work of a follower, I'll treat you as a follower. I'll pay you as much as you deserve, but that's all."
Yu Sheng grunted and didn't say anything.
Qin Song continued, "Secondly, it's not that I don't want to expel you. If one day, I have the ability to expel you, you can either leave or die."
This time, Yu Sheng was silent for a moment before he grunted again. He still didn't say anything.
"Thirdly, I don't know what you're thinking, but in my opinion, everyone, especially adults with normal judgment, is an independent individual. No one is dependent on anyone. Therefore, you can only be responsible for your own choices." Qin Song said, "I won't treat you harshly just because you're someone sent by Qin Yue. But similarly, if you do or prepare to do something to harm me, I don't care if you're following orders or if you have many difficulties … I won't forgive or sympathize with you. I will only use any means … to kill you."
Yu Sheng responded very quickly this time. For him, this point was a bit redundant — if the operation was exposed or failed, of course he should die.
He nodded and said, "I understand."
Qin Song was a bit surprised that Yu Sheng agreed so readily. He paused and said, "If you have any requests, you can tell me."
Yu Sheng hesitated for a moment. Suddenly, his face turned a bit red, "Can I … get a bit of my salary in advance?"
Qin Song was stunned.
Yu Sheng said, "I … don't have a change of clothes."
Qin Song was stunned. Didn't they say that the emperor didn't lack hungry soldiers? Why was this shadow guard, who was once ranked Black No.1, driven out to work empty-handed? Was there some secret that he didn't know?
He silently took out some money and gave it to him, saying, "This twenty taels is your salary for this month. In addition, find a reliable slave trader and ask him to bring more people for selection tomorrow. The remaining ten taels is the deposit for him."
Yu Sheng nodded. Qin Song got up and walked towards the inner room, "I'm very tired. I'm going to sleep first. Don't disturb me if there's nothing important."
Qin Song was indeed very tired. He lay on the bed and hugged the quilt until it was dark. He hadn't had such a good sleep in nearly two months.
When Qin Song was awakened by a tempting fragrance, he found that it was already dusk. He got up and went to the outer room. He saw that Yu Sheng was setting the table. The dishes were very rich. He asked in surprise, "You went to buy them?"
"No," Yu Sheng said in a muffled voice, "They were made by the residence's cook."
He then explained, "When you were asleep, the government sent people over … they said that they were prepared for the people who were sent back to the residence as hostages."
Qin Song wasn't surprised. After all, Qin Yue still had to act out the scene where he lost his mind with lust. Since they had already practiced for a while, it was time for them to "bury the hatchet and reconcile as before".
He simply washed up and rinsed his mouth. He sat at the table and said, "Sit down and eat together."
In Yu Sheng's training, there was obviously no such thing as a master and servant. Although he was a follower, he still referred to each other as "you and I". At this moment, Qin Song asked him to sit down and eat together. He didn't stand on ceremony and sat down. Before he started eating, he stopped and said hesitantly, "I just went out and bought … um, a person."
Qin Song gave an indifferent hum. So be it if you want to buy a person. It's just a small thing.
Yu Sheng was a bit annoyed, "On the way, I was bumped into by him for no reason. He insisted that I took his grass label and wanted me to pay for him … he has some martial arts and is very fast. I couldn't shake him off. In the end, I had no choice but to give him the money. He followed me again."
Why did this scene sound so familiar?
Qin Song asked, "Where is he?"
Yu Sheng said, "He's outside. Should I call him in? "
Qin Song nodded. After a while, a familiar voice was heard. It was still so proud, "This lowly one, Han Pu, greets gongzi!"
Qin Song looked at the dirty cloth hanging on Han Pu's body with a wooden face. He turned his head and asked Yu Sheng, "Why don't you let him change his clothes first?"
Yu Sheng said, "I don't have any clothes for him to change into … he took all the money."
So even if you don't have money to buy clothes, he has money!
Qin Song was speechless. After a while, he said, "… Let's eat."
He knew why the Shadow Guard profession was a lifelong job. It was because if they retired, they couldn't live at all.
After the meal, Yu Sheng got up and cleaned the table. Qin Song said, "Didn't you say that you've got all the servants?"
He had brought four servants with him from Southern Chu. According to Yu Sheng, he should have already replenished the four servants. Why did Yu Sheng have to do these things himself?
Yu Sheng's expression froze. Han Pu had eaten his fill. He hung lazily on the chair like a boss. He said with a smile, "He didn't dare to let them in. He was afraid that you would be angry."
Qin Song didn't think that he would be angry because of a few servants. But when he saw the real person, his expression changed. He suppressed his anger and asked, "Is it the same for the second prince and Qiu Yun?"
"Yes." Yu Sheng lowered his head and said, "These people were all selected from the Qin Palace."
"His Highness didn't say anything?"
The entire hostage residence was served by the eunuchs and palace maids sent by the Qin Palace. Did they really think that the hostage residence was Qin Yue's mistress?
"The Second Prince resigned, but the officials who came said that they didn't dare to neglect the Second Prince's status as a prince, so they sent these people to make the Second Prince feel at home. So, the Second Prince didn't say anything."
"Send these four people back to the Qin Palace. Tell them that Qin Song isn't a prince. They don't dare to overstep their boundaries. Tell them to take these people back. " Qin Song smiled bitterly. The hostage residence belonged to Yi An. Since he accepted it, what else could he do? He said, "Also, ask Qiu Yun if she wants to send the people around her back."
Yu Sheng agreed and hurriedly left with his men.
Qin Song turned to Han Pu and said with a frown, "What are you playing at?" He said he would look for him later, and he really did come looking for him.
"I'm not playing!" Han Pu looked like he had suffered a blow and said, "I'm serious!"
Qin Song said coldly, "I already swore that I won't assassinate Qin Yue again. So if you want to use my identity to assassinate him, I won't agree."
Han Pu waved his hand indifferently and said, "Don't worry, I won't kill him!"
"Hmm?"
If Han Pu was the person he knew, then he remembered that this number one assassin of Korea had already tried to assassinate Qin Yue more than ten times. He had been seriously injured several times and narrowly escaped death. But he still didn't change his mind. How could he stop so easily?
"You might not believe me, but actually, I'm not interested in killing Qin Yue!" Han Pu sighed and said, "It's all because of my master. He can't forget about the destruction of our country. Before he died, he forced me to swear that I would stain Qing Feng with the King Of Qin's blood. Otherwise, he wouldn't be willing to close his eyes in the underworld. Now, Qing Feng has already been stabbed into Qin Yue's chest. Although I didn't do it with my own hands, it can be considered an oath. Why would I still want to kill the King Of Qin? "
"The destruction of our country … Don't you hate it?"
"What do I hate?" Han Pu poured himself a cup of tea and drank a big mouthful. He spread out on the chair in satisfaction and said, "The destruction of our country should be hated by those high-ranking officials and nobles. Why should I hate it? I was born as a tenant farmer. My family rented dozens of acres of land. My parents and a few brothers were as tired as dogs every day, but they couldn't even fill their stomachs. I was sold to my master. Rather than saying that he wanted to sell me for some money, it's better to say that he was afraid that I would starve to death because of my young age, so he found a way to make a living for me. "
He sighed and continued, "Even so, it's good to be able to live a peaceful life like this! But there were constant wars! Wars! Wars! If we weren't attacked by others, we were going to attack others! My brothers were dragged into the army one after another. One less today, one less tomorrow … Just like this, Daehan was still destroyed. "
"Daehan was destroyed. The king lost his throne, and the officials lost their positions … But what does it have to do with us ordinary people? Even the people who come to collect rent every year are still the same people! On the contrary, because there haven't been any battles in the past few years, my youngest brother survived. Now, his child is already three years old … "Han Pu asked," Tell me, what do you think I killed Qin Yue for? "
Qin Song laughed bitterly. He raised the teacup in his hand and made a toast to him. He said, "That makes sense."
He drank it in one gulp.
Han Pu immediately beamed with joy and said, "You are indeed different from others. In this world, you are probably the only one who doesn't think that I'm crazy. Back then, I said the same thing to my master. In the end, I was chased by him for three days and three nights, and was almost killed by him … That was still considered good. In the following months, he constantly nagged me about loyalty and patriotism. He nagged me when I was practicing martial arts, when I was eating, and even when I was outside the toilet … I almost went crazy from his nagging. Even in my dreams, he talked about killing Qin Yue before he let me go. Now that I think about it, it was really like a nightmare. It was really too scary. "
He shuddered with lingering fear and sighed again. "But now, even if I want someone to nag in my ear, I can't."
Qin Song was silent.
However, Han Pu was depressed for a moment and became spirited again. He said with a smile, "Now that I don't have to kill Qin Yue, it's quite boring. Previously, I was thinking about rescuing you, but now that you are out on your own, I have nothing to do. After thinking about it, I think I might as well follow you. You see, first of all, I have to repay you for saving my life, right? Secondly, Qin Yue's defenses are getting tighter and tighter. If it weren't for you, I might never have been able to make him bleed. Then I'll keep on assassinating, assassinating, assassinating for the rest of my life. If I fail once, I'll be dead! Don't you think this life is so boring? So I, Han Pu, am living for Qin Yue! So to me, this is much more important than saving my life. Moreover, you have a good temper with me, so I might as well sell it to you! "
Qin Song said indifferently, "But you don't want to kill the King Of Qin, but I still want to kill him!"
Han Pu said in surprise, "Why do you still want to kill him? He didn't treat you well before, but didn't he let you go now? Even if there is a huge grudge between you and him, you stabbed him in the chest like that, and he survived because he was lucky. Besides, he actually treated you well, and he couldn't bear to kill you … Listen to my advice, don't waste your good life on killing Qin Yue, it's not worth it. "
"I'm from Chu." Qin Song looked at Han Pu and said indifferently, "I'm from a landowning household."
He leaned lazily against the back of the chair, his expression cold. "Anyone with some knowledge in this world knows that if the world is united, the common people will be spared from the suffering of war. But since ancient times, only people used this as a pretext to start wars and fight for the world. No one gave up everything for this reason … I, Qin Song, am naturally no exception. "
"Alright, alright!" Han Pu waved his hand and said, "You don't have to make yourself out to be so bad. When the Kingdom of Han was destroyed, I saw it with my own eyes. Not to mention someone like you, even someone who is slightly fairer and prettier can die quickly. Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I won't let anyone bully you! "
Qin Song was speechless, and finally said helplessly, "If you want to follow me, then follow me! When you're tired of playing and unhappy, just leave. "
Han Pu didn't show any loyalty, and said with a smile, "That's good!"
He stretched and said, "I'm going to take a shower and change my clothes, and also get some clothes for that silly boy — when I fought with him before, I felt that he was sinister and ruthless, and thought that he was a ruthless character, but I didn't expect him to be so stupid! He doesn't know anything except fighting, and he's so honest that I don't want to bully him. "
Qin Song couldn't help but roll his eyes at him: You're still too embarrassed to bully him, if you were, how arrogant would you be?
"You fought with Yu Sheng before, aren't you afraid that he'll recognize you?"
Han Pu had already walked to the door, and with his back facing Qin Song, he waved his hand and said, "If I don't even have the ability to conceal myself, why would I be an assassin?"
A moment later, Linno stood up with the help of the mountain rock. His movement just now was a bit too loud, and maybe someone would come to check. To avoid trouble, it was better for him to leave early — he lived quite comfortably in the nearby village, and didn't want to move for the time being.
"Huoer."
Following his low cry, the pitch-black lake water rippled gently, as if something had broken free. Then, the lake water instantly regained its green color, but in the next moment, it began to freeze at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, it had turned into a huge piece of solid white ice, and from time to time, there would be sounds of crushing and breaking.
As the lake water froze, the surrounding air also became somewhat distorted, and white fog came out of nowhere, getting thicker and thicker.
Linno stretched out his right hand, and a flickering flame-shaped hole appeared in the thick fog, happily jumping into his palm.
With a flick of Lin Nuo's left hand's finger, a light blue flame about a foot long appeared at the tip of his finger. The ice on his body instantly disappeared, and the thick fog also retreated to a distance of ten meters away.
After the thick fog retreated, the invisible flame in his palm completely disappeared, and only the blue flame in his left hand could be seen, as if it was being sucked in by something, slowly disappearing.
Linno flicked Huoer's "head", and said, "This time it's all thanks to you. When I recover, I'll treat you to a full meal."
If Huoer hadn't gone into the lake and created a lake of "water" that was several times colder than ice, he might not have been able to survive this time — nowadays, the methods of the System were becoming more and more despicable.
Huoer jumped twice in his palm, vaguely expressing its joy, and jumped into the space between his eyebrows. Linno turned around and left.
Ever since he was seriously injured last time, Linno's body had become like a sieve, and it wasn't easy to accumulate spiritual energy. In addition, he didn't have anything to do, so after crossing two mountains, Linno landed and walked on two legs.
After walking for a short while, a "white cloud" descended and stopped three feet in front of him. Seven or eight people stood on it, looking down at him. Among them, a thirteen or fourteen year old boy coldly asked, "When you were here, did you see anything strange around you?"
Linno asked back, "What strange things?"
The boy's expression turned cold, and he was about to get angry, but someone beside him said, "He's just a mortal, what can he know? Let's hurry up and check it out, don't let others beat us to it. "
The boy coldly snorted, and rode the "white cloud" away. Linno heard a cold voice, "How dare you not worship us immortals when you see us. Because of your ignorance, we'll only punish you lightly today, but if there's a next time, you'll be killed without mercy."
