"Ding Anguo, we have known each other for so many years, do you really think you can hide it from me?"
"My lord...when did you know about this?"
"When the country was founded, you were betrayed. But considering that you are also one of the founding heroes, I killed the person who betrayed you, and then let this secret disappear."
"This...why is this?" Ding Anguo said moved.
"Because you have never done anything to hurt me, but have always helped me. Moreover, I have always believed that as long as I treat you sincerely, you will never forget my kindness to you. I remember when you came to Tianzhu, The Lie Kingdom has not yet been established. Ao Lie's focus is not on Tianzhu at all. His thoughts are all on the Land of Yanhuang and the European Continent. To put it bluntly, at that time, Ao Lie still looked down upon Tianzhu, so he only invested a small number of special agents in Tianzhu. , and later there was a lack of communication and contact for many years. I think people's hearts are all flesh-grown. As long as you feel that you can get what you want here, your relationship with the Aolie forces will become lower and lower. You tell me what I said. right?"
"What...the king said is exactly what my subordinates are thinking. Over the years, my subordinates have been grateful to the king and have been doing their best for the Chu State. I wandered between the Lie Kingdom and the Chu Kingdom, always looking for Looking for the balance point, seeking that delicate relationship, as a spy, doing counter-espionage work, just for the long-term prosperity of Chu State."
"I know, I know, I understand you, I understand you especially. Even though many people say that you are a mercenary villain, I know that you sincerely consider the country of Chu and me."
"Thank you, thank you for your trust in your subordinates." Ding Anguo was now in tears.
"So, I also hope that you will consider me for the last time. Only you can do this."
"What is your order, Your Majesty?"
"Assassinate me and keep me alive in people's hearts."
"No, Your Majesty, keep the green hills..."
"Do you think I am Qingshan? You have known from before that all I want is glory and wealth. We are the same kind of people. However, I became the King of Chu and became a hero in people's hearts. Everyone thinks I am Qingshan, but I am just an ordinary stone on Qingshan. You know this better than anyone else."
"Your Majesty..." Ding Anguo kept sobbing, but could no longer refute.
"But, maybe I can live as a green mountain in people's hearts. I hope the world knows that King Chu did not give up until the end, he was just assassinated."
"But my lord, if you are really not afraid of death. Why don't you lead everyone to the last fight?"
"Because they still have their families up there. We shouldn't sacrifice everyone for an unwinnable battle. They shouldn't have such an ending."
"Your Majesty, you are so kind." Ding Anguo said with tears of gratitude.
"I have one more thing to ask you."
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"When the Flying Tigers approached Yecheng, I sent people to smuggle dozens of my wives and children to Bell City in the north. Although I left a lot of gold and silver jewelry there, after the Liejun took power, I I don’t know what they will do. I hope that you will take my head to see Luo Erhu and ask him to treat my wife and children well. If you don’t ask for them to have good food and clothing, at least let them have good food and clothing. I believe , my head should be worthy of him agreeing to this condition."
"It's inevitable that Luo Erhu didn't even take any of my property, just to get me to agree to assassinate you."
"Thank you for being honest with me."
"No, I am the one who should thank you. I am grateful to the king for your help. I swear to God here that I will definitely let your wife and children live a life of fine clothing and food. I will definitely."
"You don't have to swear, I believe you.
Although none of us are great people, I know that you can definitely do this kind of thing. "
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, we are all the same kind of people, I understand you."
"Then hurry up. While Chu Ba is asleep now, you can take the head and escape quickly. You built this underground villa, so I don't need to teach you how to escape."
"I know, I know." Ding Anguo was already crying.
"The speed must be fast, but don't let me hurt for too long." King Chu closed his eyes, and two lines of tears fell down his face.
"No, actually I know a little bit of illusion. Please open your eyes first, King Chu, and I will let you enter a beautiful illusion. You will lose consciousness in the illusion, and you will not feel any pain after that."
"As expected of you, you have never let me down."
King Chu opened his eyes, and his pupils instantly glowed with a white halo, and then his consciousness entered the illusion...
This illusion is the scene when King Chu just founded his country.
In the white palace and the high cloud platform, the King of Chu is enthroned as the king. Below are countless subjects, shouting that the king will live forever and the Kingdom of Chu will live forever...
That moment was the proudest moment for King Chu.
King Chu spread his hands, and two huge eagles flew over and landed next to King Chu.
slowly……
King Chu closed his eyes and smiled...
"Uh-huh!"
In reality, Ding Anguo tearfully took off King Chu's head, wrapped the head in quilt, and quickly left the room.
On the way, Ding Anguo met two soldiers by chance. They felt very strange when they saw Ding Anguo walking in a hurry and with blood stains on his body.
"General Ding, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, I'm okay." Ding Anguo didn't stop and quickly passed between the two of them.
"General Ding, where are you going at night?"
"Not going anywhere, not going anywhere."
Ding Anguo continued to quicken his pace, turned a corner, and disappeared into the corridor.
The two soldiers felt more and more strange that Ding Anguo had blood stains on his body, and he was holding a sphere wrapped in a quilt in his hand. The key was that the quilt also had blood stains.
"It's so weird. The more I think about it, the more weird it becomes."
"I also find it strange that Ding Anguo looks panicked, which is so abnormal."
"Report the matter to the commander immediately."
"Well, let's go."
The two soldiers immediately rushed to report the matter to the superior. Upon hearing this, the superior felt that something was wrong and immediately rushed to King Chu's room.
This officer is also a senior general and participated in the founding of Chu State, so he knows something about Ding Anguo. He had repeatedly persuaded the King of Chu to be on guard against Ding Anguo, but the King of Chu refused to listen at all and asked him not to slander Ding Anguo.
Now that Ding Anguo is acting so unusually, something big may have happened.
When the general rushed to King Chu's room, his whole body was chilled and his heart was beating fast. He usually wouldn't be out of breath when sprinting, but now he was constantly gasping for air, so to speak. The general is extremely nervous now. He hopes that everything is just his guess, he hopes that everything is just his overthinking, he hopes...
However, when he opened the door of King Chu's room, he collapsed.
King Chu lay quietly on the bed. Someone covered him with a quilt, but there was no head on the pillow.
"Wow ah ah ah..." The general finally collapsed. What he feared most happened.
King Chu was eventually assassinated, and he died at the hands of Ding Anguo, a person whom he had long suspected might be problematic.
The general's roars and shouts attracted more and more
There were so many people that Chu Ba, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly woke up. He swished out and quickly came to King Chu's room.
However, what caught the eye was that several generals were breaking down and crying, while the King of Chu was lying quietly on the bed without his head.
Chu Ba's eyes suddenly widened and he knelt on the bed, stunned.
After staying for a few seconds, he suddenly laughed stupidly: "This must be a dream, this must be a dream, this must be a dream."
Chu Ba began to slap himself wildly, with such force that the surrounding furniture was shaken away.
When the soldiers saw that Chu Ba's mouth was bleeding from being slapped, they quickly stepped forward and hugged Chu Ba. Several generals worked together to control Chu Ba.
Chu Ba was still shouting heartbreakingly: "Why don't you wake up? Why don't you wake up? Why? Why?"
The whole room was filled with collapse and despair.
At this time, several other more rational generals wanted to make a last-ditch effort. He asked his men to search the entire underground base separately and kill Ding Anguo whenever they saw him.
After several hours of searching, the men lowered their heads and reported in despair: "Not found."
The officers sat on their chairs, held their heads with their hands, collapsed and sobbed.
In fact, they also knew that Ding Anguo must have run away long ago. Ding Anguo was the person in charge when this underground villa was built. He knew the structure of the building very well. This last search is nothing more than self-comfort.
Hundreds of people abandoned their wives and children to find the King of Chu, just to achieve their great cause. But now, King Chu is dead, and all faith collapsed in an instant.
That night, countless cries resounded in the underground base, and they were all cries of adult men.
On the other side, Ding Anguo returned to Luo Erhu with the loot.
Luo Erhu was shocked when he saw Ding Anguo: "You're back? Have you completed your mission?"
"Look." Ding Anguo handed the head to Luo Erhu.
Luo Erhu opened the quilt and saw King Chu's head.
"Ding Anguo, you actually did it. I didn't expect you to really do it. You are simply a great hero." Luo Erhu hugged Ding Anguo excitedly.
"Captain, will you honor what you said before?"
"Of course, we will not touch the wealth you accumulated in Yecheng. In addition, we will also reward you based on your merits."
"Then can I add another condition?"
"Say, but there's no harm in saying it."
"The King of Chu has more than 20 wives and more than 30 children. Can you treat them well?"
"What conditions did I expect? It turns out to be this. No problem. Of course we will treat King Chu's family well."
"That's okay." Ding Anguo smiled slightly, the tears in the corners of his eyes dazzling under the light.
"Ding Anguo, are you crying?" Luo Erhu asked curiously.
"No, it's okay, I'm just happy." Ding Anguo wiped his eyes.
"Yes, you should be happy, haha."
"Captain, can you keep King Chu's head in good condition?"
"You don't need to worry about this. We can keep this head for great use."
"Is it to lure Chu Ba and the others? Then you can catch them all in one go?"
"You're pretty good at guessing." Luo Erhu didn't expect that Ding Anguo guessed them all correctly.
"I mean, when everything is over, can we sew King Chu's body and head together? I want to bury him properly."
"Okay, no problem, I can't tell. I didn't expect you to miss old friendship so much." Luo Erhu patted Ding Anguo on the shoulder and readily agreed to his request.
