A month later, there was an abandoned courtyard in the south of Yongjia City.
Lu Xun and Xu Daofu, dressed like farmers, stood in the courtyard, silently looking at the corpses in the yard. The whole family, starting from two old people in their sixties, to three in their forties and fives. His little grandson, a total of nine people, all sat in the main room, hugging each other and died. It seemed that they had been dead for more than ten days. They were all skin and bones. A few wild dogs were wandering back and forth outside the courtyard. If If there wasn't someone in this courtyard, I'm afraid they might have come in a long time ago and enjoyed a feast of human flesh. The stench permeated the courtyard in mid-March. Even though both of them were wearing thick cloths covering their mouths and noses, they could not help but frown.
Liu Yu's voice sounded coldly from outside the hospital: "This is all your fault. Will your conscience not hurt when you see such a scene?"
The two of them turned their heads and looked at Liu Yu, who was wearing a farmer's short coat, a bamboo hat, and his mouth and nose covered, standing alone at the entrance of the courtyard. Xu Daofu's lips curled up and said: "You have a share, too, Liu Yu. Don’t think of yourself as a saint. Our divine sect’s uprisings were also forced by dog officials!”
Liu Yu walked into the courtyard, took off his bamboo hat, and looked at Lu Xun calmly: "You have become the leader of the cult. I have to congratulate you. After so many years, you finally got what you wanted and controlled the Tao of the Heavenly Master."
Lu Xun shook his head: "I also have to congratulate you. After so many years, you finally got what you wanted and became a general. This time I took advantage of the two-day truce to die for the people of Yongjia and our two armies. The soldiers collected their corpses. I also asked you to come to negotiate. I didn’t expect that if you really dare to come, aren’t you afraid that we will set up an ambush to kill you here?”
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Aren't you afraid that I will come to kill you? Well, since it is a negotiation, be sincere. I will not come to kill you today. There is no need for you ambush troops to stay."
Lu Xun nodded and waved his hand, and there was a gentle sound of clothes rustling inside and outside the hospital. Soon, everything returned to calm.
Xu Daofu looked at Liu Yu and said coldly: "If you dare to come to see us directly, aren't you afraid that Huan Xuan will kill you if he finds out?"
Liu Yu said calmly: "This is not a problem for you to consider. We don't have much time. Let's get straight to the point. This time Huan Xuan sent me to eliminate you, but I am merciful. You should It is clear that it is not because of the epidemic everywhere that I have to bury the bodies, but to keep you here, which is useful to me now."
Xu Daofu sneered and said: "I didn't expect that Liu Jinu, who is dedicated to serving the country, actually had his own evil thoughts this time. Did seeing Sun Wuzhong's fate scare you? You want to play the trick of raising the bandits' self-respect. In the long run, Are you stationed in Wudi and running your own power?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "Do you think I will let you stay in Wudi after I see you have done so many evils? Will I let you continue to harm the people here? I haven't hit you with all my strength this month, I just follow you In the small-scale battle, so far, I have only killed one pioneer, Zhang Shigui, just to give you a warning, as long as I, Liu Yu, are here for a day, the land of Sanwu will not cause you any more harm!"
Lu Xun gritted his teeth: "The one who messed up Sanwu was not our divine sect, but those aristocratic families, Sima Yuanxian. It was they who wanted to recruit villagers as soldiers here, breaking the balance that had existed for hundreds of years, and then there was a god. Teach us to rise up! Liu Yu, look at the world. There are tigers and wolves in the court. They call us thieves, but they are more cannibals than us. They join forces with us to create a peaceful world. Only then It’s what you should do!”
Liu Yu said sternly: "They are thieves, aren't you? What is Taiping Tianxia? Is it the massacre of prisoners? Is it the rape of women? Is it the atrocities of massacres in places like Hudu and Shangyu? Or are you the masters of heaven? Everyone has been killed and dead, and no one can resist you. Is this a peaceful world with only dead people?!"
When Liu Yu said this, he pointed to the corpse on the hall: "Just like this family, there are seniors and juniors. They are all local people. They have not offended you or bullied your subordinates, but they are like this. We starved to death in the war you provoked! You obviously had military rations, but you only used them to recruit young men with fighting capabilities. As for these women, children and the elderly, you just watched them starve to death, like you tigers and wolves, even if If you win the world, it will not be any better than those noble families and high sects you resisted!"
Lu Xun burst out laughing: "Liu Yu, Liu Yu, who do you think you are? A savior saint sent by God to come down to earth to save this world? Do you think you can bring peace to the world by yourself? Really? Let me tell you, you are dreaming. In troubled times, you have to be as stone-hearted and cold-blooded as you climb up on a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. These sacrifices today are for the sake of peace in the future. It’s worth it, your ancestor Liu Bang was like this back then, otherwise where would you come from?!”
Liu Yu said coldly: "In troubled times, if you want to conquer the world, soldiers, horses, and tactics are indeed indispensable, but there is a bottom line, that is, as a person's conscience, you can be cruel and ruthless to the enemy, but to those who are unable to resist, Liu Yu said coldly. Your people, if you are still so cruel, you will be punished by God sooner or later. What happened to Sun En and Sima Yuanxian yesterday will be your tomorrow. I hope you can understand this truth sooner or later."
Xu Daofu gritted his teeth: "If we had a way to survive, we wouldn't be like this. Now we don't have enough troops and food to feed tens of thousands of subordinates. How can we take care of these old and weak women and children? Liu Yu, please stop standing. It doesn’t hurt to talk. If you are so kind-hearted, then you can support them.”
Liu Yu said calmly: "This is why I came to you. If you continue to fight, I can eliminate you, but the people of Sanwu will continue to fight against each other. I don't want to support the bandits and respect themselves. Now I will show you a way out. You have ships, experienced sailors, and tens of thousands of believers who are willing to follow you to the ends of the earth. I have given you enough time so that those from Sanwu Land who are still willing to follow you can now board your ship. Now, give I will go far away. Whether I am going to Liaodong, going to Yingzhou to find the gods, or going to Linyi or Yizhou in the south, I will not stop me. However, the land of Sanwu, in this life, will not stop me. You are not allowed to take another step, because I only give you this chance. Next time I see you causing trouble to the world, no matter where you are, I will crush you to ashes!"
At this point, Liu Yu's beard and hair grew thick, with an awe-inspiring aura that frightened both Lu Xun and Xu Daofu's expressions. Lu Xun rolled his eyes and finally stamped his foot: "Okay, give us five days." , let’s evacuate, if you break your promise and pursue us, then both humans and gods will be abandoned!” As he spoke, he stretched out his hand.
Without saying a word, Liu Yu struck out with his palm: "Deal!"
