In the blink of an eye, a good situation turned into a critical situation. Half a month ago, Qi Zhen would never have imagined that the result would turn out like this.
Huang Yueying is unreliable, so of course Zhuge Liang is not trustworthy either.
Then the so-called cooperation before was nothing more than mutual use in the eyes of the other party.
Since Yuan Shao has such an unclear relationship with Gongsun Zan, I am afraid that there will be some problems with the attitudes of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun.
That's the way it is with people. Once doubt begins to take root in your heart, all your previously unshakable beliefs will collapse.
Looking around, there is no one in the world who can be trusted.
No, there is actually one.
"Do you know what I admire most about Lin Biao?" Liang Sicheng asked.
Qi Zhen knew what Liang Sicheng meant by asking this question, and remained silent for a while.
Liang Sicheng did not wait for Qi Zhen's answer, but spoke to himself: "When we first came to this world, our initial thoughts were how to unite and connect among these princes. This is the so-called taking advantage of the situation, and Lin He is different, or he was just like us at the beginning, but when his own wings became a little fuller, he began to cultivate his own power instead of choosing to trust others."
Liang Sicheng had already heard about what happened outside Luoyang City. Like Qi Zhen, he also believed that the gun-wielding sergeants who appeared outside Luoyang City should be Lin Biao's subordinates.
"Declaring one's control over certain forces and territories can actually avoid a lot of troubles to the greatest extent. Compared to hiding behind the scenes with conspiracy, it is obvious that Lin Bian's method can achieve better results." Liang Sicheng continued. , "I'm more curious now about how he got to his current position step by step when he was in Yizhou."
Qi Zhen shook his head. It was hard for him to imagine how Lin Biao did it.
"But after going round and round, now we at least understand how to take the next step." Liang Sicheng said.
Smart people save time and effort by chatting. Qi Zhen instantly understood what Liang Sicheng meant.
Since no one can be trusted, returning to the origin is the only way.
In other words, only the teammates in the team are the only ones Qi Zhen can trust.
So after leaving Jingzhou, the only choice for the two of them was to rush to Luoyang. It sounded a bit miserable, but realistically, they wanted to defect to Lin Biao. Even if it didn't sound good, it would still be the same.
"I used to think that playing games is like playing cards. You play one card and I play another. It always depends on whose trump card is stronger in the end. Now it seems that we think that the cards in our hands are all dead, but who can When you think about those cards, you actually have your own thoughts." Qi Zhen said suddenly.
"If we really think about it according to what you said, there are actually problems, such as who is qualified to be on the card table, and who is the card in other people's hands." Liang Sicheng pondered for a moment and replied.
"You're right, I'm still young." Qi Zhen sighed, deeply shocked.
"It doesn't matter, we are still young and there are still plenty of opportunities." Liang Sicheng comforted.
"Do you still feel pain?" Qi Zhen asked.
"What do you think?" Liang Sicheng said angrily.
"I'm sorry." Qi Zhen apologized sincerely.
"Pay attention in the future." Liang Sicheng closed his eyes.
He was ready to sleep a little longer.
Sleeping is the best way to recover from injuries. Liang Sicheng has always believed this.
"I'll go out and discuss the details of leaving here with Xiong Wu tomorrow. After all, no one in the world can be trusted now. We can't capsize in the gutter again."
Qi Zhen endured the soreness in her muscles and stood up. When Liang Sicheng didn't answer, she walked out the door.
"Oh, that's right." Qi Zhen suddenly turned her head when she walked to the door.
"You have been tortured for such a long time. Have you been cured of your bleeding problem?"
"Get lost." Liang Sicheng closed his eyes and cursed.
Qi Zhen smiled and walked out of the house.
Liang Sicheng, who was lying on the bed, also raised the corners of his mouth, and then turned over, grinning in pain.
At dawn the next day, a carriage was driving on the road to the South City Gate, which looked particularly eye-catching.
This area in the south of the city is much better than other places in the city.
Human instinct determines to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and it also determines that things like eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling will always take priority over other needs to wake up.
Regardless of whether anyone died in this city, gambling houses, brothels and wine shops should still be opened.
This also determines that it is generally quiet here during the day, especially at ten o'clock in the morning, when there are few cars and horses on the road, the movement of this carriage becomes particularly harsh.
The clatter of horse hooves combined with the grunt of carriage shafts made the whole street seem even quieter.
The driver was Xiong Wu. He looked calm and unhurried, and even had a relaxed smile on his face.
The carriage quickly arrived at the South City Gate, where someone was already waiting.
A bearded general saw Xiong Wu sitting in the carriage and came up to him with a smile.
"Brother Huzi, I've caused you trouble." Xiong Wu thanked him sincerely.
"If you said these things to me, wouldn't you be a stranger? If it hadn't been for you, no one would have known about my mother's death at home." The deputy general, known as Brother Hu Zi, smiled and waved his hand.
"We'll talk about it some other time when we have the opportunity," Xiong Wu said, cupping his fists.
"Have a good trip." The deputy general nodded and waved to the soldiers behind him: "There is no need to check this car, it will be released directly."
"Here!"
As expected, the soldiers at the city gate did not check, and just watched the carriage leave.
"Sir," a soldier suddenly said, "Didn't the governor's office give an order..."
"I want you to teach me?" the deputy general glared.
"I don't dare to be humble!"
"Okay, just do your thing."
The deputy general named Huzi looked at the carriage going away, hoping that the family would never come back.
On the carriage, Qi Zhen put away her long sword. It was still hard to believe that everyone left Jingzhou so easily.
"You, don't always think about the dangers of the world. Wouldn't it be better to think more about positive and sunny things?" Liang Sicheng scolded Qi Zhen as he looked at Qi Zhen who was facing a formidable enemy.
"It seems that the system has no intention of making things difficult for us here." Qi Zhen looked more relaxed.
"I'm not telling you that you can't go for the good. You have to know that there is always a lack of intrigue in this world, especially in troubled times. But I have always believed that there is a kind part in people's hearts. Treating others sincerely may not necessarily lead to change. There will be good results, but I have always believed that good people are rewarded. There is a dark part in people's hearts, but kindness is always the last glimmer of light that remains in the heart."
Liang Sicheng
Lying in the car, still tied up like a rice dumpling, saying this in such a state is really a bit cute.
"Children with big farts know a lot," Qi Zhen said with a smile.
"It's not that I know much, it's that thinking about problems more simply can make me live more comfortably." Liang Sicheng replied.
Sanlipo is a place name, no more than three miles away from the south gate of Jingzhou City. It is also the first official post to the south out of Jingzhou, and everyone has to part ways here.
The Xiong family went south, while Qi Zhen and Liang Sicheng were about to turn north.
At the time of separation, everyone was still a little reluctant to leave. After all, this time of separation, we didn’t know when we would see each other again.
The Xiong family members themselves felt nothing, but Qi Zhen felt sincerely sorry for the family.
Xiong Wen, the three of them and the old lady were fine. They had been telling them to take care of themselves along the way, but Xiong Wu felt quite complicated in his heart.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Qi Zhen and the others changed the fate of the family, but under the guidance of the old woman, they really accepted this status quo willingly, which made Xiong Wu feel quite resentful.
The old woman was worried about Liang Sicheng's health, so she wanted to leave the carriage for them.
Originally, Qi Zhen thought that she could carry Liang Sicheng on her back and wait until she got to the next place to think of a solution. This journey was nothing more than working harder on her own, which was all about exercising her physical and mental strength.
The old woman's words received strong support from Xiong Wen's family of three, but Xiong Wu was holding it back. Mainly because he didn't care, he was just afraid that his wife and nephew wouldn't be able to bear the fatigue of walking.
Qi Zhen naturally understood what her family would face if the carriage was given to her, so she resisted again and again.
In the end, she couldn't resist this kind family, so Qi Zhen suggested buying the carriage by herself.
Xiong Wu looked Qi Zhen up and down, who didn't even have a baggage, and thought to himself, just brag.
The result was shocking. Qi Zhen started to take out the gold from her arms, and even took out a stick of incense without stopping.
Seeing the table full of gold ingots that could almost blind one's eyes, the whole family's eyes widened, not believing that what they saw was real.
The porcelain rooster and the iron fairy, the glass mouse and the glazed cat, this is Qi Zhen.
The family didn't ask Qi Zhen where he got so much gold. They were just in trouble because they couldn't take it with them.
Qi Zhen said you can take as much as you can. I took it all out to tell you that this little money is nothing to me, so you don’t have to feel embarrassed.
Xiong Wu thinks Qi Zhen and Qi Zhen are actually quite cute.
Liang Sicheng had never seen some of Qi Zhen's characteristics in previous games, so he naturally didn't understand what Qi Zhen's behavior meant.
The family took away a lot according to their ability, but Qi Zhen didn't have any distressed expression on her face.
This family taught Qi Zhen very important things, which cannot be compared with this little gold.
Qi Zhen took the other gold back into her human bag and said goodbye to them.
That money is enough for them to live a carefree life in this world for a lifetime. This should be regarded as Qi Zhen's reward for this kindness.
Riding this "bought" carriage at a huge price, Qi Zhen felt at peace in her heart.
"I can't tell, but you are quite cute sometimes." Liang Sicheng said with a smile.
"There are many things you can't see." Qi Zhen replied with a smile.
