"Since you came to the capital, why didn't you come directly to Xie's Mansion to find me?" Li Rufeng asked again.
"I went to look for him, but I was expelled!" Big Bear looked aggrieved. "The soldiers guarding the gate shot me away with their bows and arrows before I could speak. How dare I come any closer?"
After a pause, he shook his head again, "However, I can't blame them! I begged all the way to Beijing and slept in the open for more than a month. I was like a beggar. I have long since lost my humanity!"
"Then how did you go to Juxian Tower?" Xiao Lin asked.
"It's to fill my stomach!" Da Xiong replied, "I knew I couldn't enter Xie's Mansion in the same state I looked like before, so I went to Juxian Tower and chopped firewood for them. I didn't want a penny. I just wanted a full meal and a set of clean clothes. ! It only took me two hours to chop all the firewood in their backyard woodshed. The shopkeeper was very happy and rewarded me with clothes and a good meal! But before I had a few bites, I heard that bastard was there. How could I bear to slander our Changlin Army? I immediately started fighting with them! Those bastards..." Z.br>
Halfway through his words, his eyes suddenly stuck on Xiao Lin's face, he tilted his head and looked left and right, muttering: "Why do you look so familiar?"
"This is His Highness the Crown Prince!" Li Rufeng introduced.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Daxiong was stunned, "But they all said that His Highness the Crown Prince was very handsome. I also took a look at him from a distance. He was a man with a beautiful face! But his face was as black as coal..."
"Mother Xiong!" Li Rufeng scolded: "Don't talk nonsense in front of His Highness!"
Big Bear hurriedly stopped talking, but his bull's eyes were still staring at Xiao Lin blankly.
"You came to Beijing from the north, and your face changed so much that even Li Rufeng didn't recognize you. You went to the north to collect corpses. How could you still look the same after this trip?" Xiao Lin said lightly, "I went to the north to collect corpses." Not only is the face ruined, but the legs are also damaged!"
"Huh?" Big Bear's eyes fell on his legs, and then he realized that his knees were covered with thick blankets, and he immediately began to cry again.
"My Highness! What should I do! General Xie and the others died so miserably, and you are disabled? Oh my god, why don't you open your eyes! I'll fuck you to death, you thief!"
He cried heartbrokenly, obviously very distressed, but a tall man, beating his chest and wailing like this, coupled with the swollen face that was beaten into a pig's head, gave him an inexplicable sense of joy.
Xiao Lin raised her head and said, "It turns out that your nickname of Mrs. Xiong is not in vain!"
"That's it!" Li Rufeng spread his hands, "Among the northern hunters, he cries the most! These tears are like free money! Okay, stop crying! Lao Pi took more than a dozen of you to Beijing thousands of miles away. In the end, you were the only one left, so you weren’t asked to come to Xie’s Mansion to mourn, right?”
"Of course not!" Daxiong waved his hands desperately and sobbed: "We came to Beijing because we have a very important matter to discuss with His Highness the Crown Prince..."
"What's the matter?" Xiao Lin asked hurriedly.
"Your Highness, wait a minute..." He cried and pulled open his clothes, and a hideous scar on his chest came into view.
He stretched out his hand and fumbled around the scar twice, and when his fingertips stopped somewhere, he suddenly grinned and said, "I knew it would be the safest place to put it here! General Li, come on! Cut open this scar!"
Li Rufeng was confused: "What are you doing to cut this scar?"
"Get the secret message!" Big Bear replied, "I was afraid of losing it, so I sewed it into my body!"
"Sewing..." Su Li's eyes fell on the crookedly stitched wound. He thought this man was funny just now, but now he was in awe.
Xiao Lin was also greatly shocked and said hoarsely: "I'm sorry for you!"
"It's not painful!" Big Bear waved his hand cheerfully, "Just cut a hole and stuff it in, it won't hurt much! It's better than losing the letter! I said that whether Chang Lin Jun can redress his grievances or rectify his name depends on this letter. I believe it! Even if I risk my life for this belief, it’s nothing!”
Li Rufeng sighed and took out the knife to look for the secret message. The tip of the knife scratched his chest, and blood rushed out. He wiped away the blood and saw a black oil paper bag stuck in the flesh and blood.
He stretched out his hand and pulled it, but it didn't move.
After more than a month, the oil paper bag has grown into the flesh.
Li Rufeng couldn't bear it for a moment, and was thinking of finding a less painful way to take out the secret letter. Da Xiong was more agile. He gritted his teeth and used force to pull out the oil paper bag and handed it to Xiao Lin.
Xiao Lin glanced at him and looked at Su Li.
Su Li understood: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I promise to heal him well!"
Xiao Lin nodded, wiped off the blood on the oiled paper bag with a handkerchief, and opened the paper bag.
The oil-paper bag was wrapped very carefully, with four or five layers. The last layer was a thin page of a map. There was something wrapped in the map, which shone warmly in the sun.
After seeing the appearance of the thing clearly, Xiao Lin trembled all over and stood up!
"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Su Li asked nervously.
"This is the fourth uncle's jade pendant!" Xiao Lin trembled with lips. "This jade pendant once blocked a sword for him, but it was intact. He jokingly called it the life-saving jade and never left it! Before collecting corpses on the battlefield, I I’ve been looking for this jade pendant, but I haven’t found it yet!”
"Then what does it mean to be here now?" Su Li asked.
"What does this mean..." Xiao Lin murmured and repeated her words, looking up at Big Bear, "What does this mean?"
"Your Highness, are you asking me?" Daxiong pointed at himself, "I don't know! I just followed Lao Pi's instructions and brought this oil paper bag over! He didn't explain anything else!"
"Lao Pi didn't say anything special before he died?" Li Rufeng asked.
"No!" Big Bear shook his head, "He can't say it! We didn't go together!"
"Not together?" Xiao Lin was stunned, "You didn't say there were more than ten people in the group?"
"When we set off, more than ten people set off at the same time!" Da Xiong explained, "But after leaving the northern border, we all went our separate ways! Old Pi told me to go to the Flower House to have some fun before setting off. I I didn’t want to go because I was afraid my mother-in-law would beat me up if she found out, but I insisted on going, so I had no choice but to stay there for three nights before setting off!”
"Then how do you know they are all dead?" Li Rufeng was confused.
"Lao Pi said that every time he passed through a city, he would leave a message for me in the flower tower, asking me to enter the flower tower every time. When I passed through Lanzhou City and Cangzhou City, I saw the smiling faces he drew in the flower tower, but When he arrived in Liangzhou City, his smiling face disappeared, and after that, I never saw his smiling face again..." Da Xiong said with tears falling down again, "Lao Pi told me before setting off that this trip is extremely dangerous and could happen at any time. They were dead. He said that if he couldn’t see smiling faces, it meant they were all dead. He told me not to worry about it, but he still entered the flower house every time and kept walking like this! I later met a robber and had no money left. I was begging for food. They all went to Hualou to ask for it!"
