Chapter 44: Sacrifice Flag
No one in Southern Wu Prefecture could write the message to criticize Xian Yuxiang, so it was written by Yang Jian himself. The general idea is: "Today's treacherous ministers are using things to do things, jumping around, trying to maintain the power of control, and have hidden ambitions to waver and harbor evil intentions. Their motives are real." "deep", and also said that Xianyu Xiang "framed the Zhao Kingdom, plundered without restraint, and killed innocent people indiscriminately", predicting that the next step "will be unscrupulous, taking lives and killings, all falling into his hands, and swallowing them in the future, like turning the palm of the hand."
He also expressed the difficulties of the Qing emperor, "An old saying goes: A trapped beast wants to fight, and if you are caught to death, you have no choice but to do something. Jiedu Xianyu gathered troops in Yizhou, and when the day came, he saw an attack. Gu Zuo, the long history officer, led the sharp troops "Three thousand warriors, top and bottom, are of the same mind, willing to die in service" and so on.
An article with four parallel and six parallels, read out like this, at least half of the people could only understand it roughly. Gu Zuo waited for him to finish reading and said to everyone in the martial arts arena:
"After all, it actually means the same thing. A common man wants to take money out of our pockets and live out his big dream! If he dares to kill our close Taoist friends and beloved friends, we will keep him at bay and beat him. Yizhou, punish Xianyu!"
Thousands of people on the field suddenly shouted: "Qingjun side - punish Xianyu! Qingjun side - punish Xianyu..."
The cry shook like thunder.
There were monks from the court who carried someone up from the stage and brought him directly to the commander's head on the high platform, where a guillotine had already been arranged.
The person who was escorted up was Gu You, who joined the army in Zizhou. Gu You was already frightened at this moment. Even last night, he was still lucky enough to express his intention to surrender. Would he be able to avoid death? Until now, he was escorted up. , he was finally sure that death was imminent, and his legs and feet were so weak in panic.
This was the sacrificial flag before the expedition. Half of the reasons why everyone bought tickets to attend the expedition meeting were for this reason. Seeing Gu You being escorted up, there was another burst of excited screams.
Gu You was forced to the guillotine by two French monks, and his neck was twisted so that it was facing Shuai Huang, so that the blood could splash on the flag when beheading.
Gu You's whole body was so sore that he was numb. He didn't even have the strength to speak. He just looked at the fluttering flag in horror and thought to himself, will his blood be stained by this flag today?
Liu Xuanji came forward and announced loudly: "Xianyu killed innocent people in vain and murdered Zhongliang. Today, let Jiedu Mansion pay the blood debt with blood, and use the blood of this traitor to strengthen the soldiers on the expedition!"
An open space appeared in front of the flag. The executioner who was enforcing the law came to the guillotine and showed a flying knife with a ghost head. The flying knife circled twice in the air and flew to the executioner. The executioner shot out a water arrow. The spray sprayed on the ghost-headed flying knife, and it made several screams like howling wolves. The wind was so miserable that the necks of the spectators felt a faint chill.
This executioner was introduced by Yang Jian and specially "invited" from Jiannan Road. He belongs to a certain family of executioners. Although his cultivation is just Qi refining, he is very professional when executing executions, which immediately makes the flag-sacrifice ceremony a little more special. Solemn and solemn.
The so-called expert can tell if there is anything when he reaches out his hand. The executioner showed extremely high professionalism. Gu Zuo was very satisfied and nodded to Yang Jian to express his approval. Yang Jian stroked his beard and smiled.
Liu Xuanji bowed to Gu Zuo: "Please give the order, Chief Shi!"
Gu Zuo said loudly: "Nan Wuzhou is not my own. It is the home of tens of thousands of Nanwu monks. The Huaixian Pavilion is not my only one. It is a Taoist temple where thousands of fellow disciples practice. Today, we should not be left alone." I, Gu Zuo, give the order, and the thousands of comrades present should give the order."
This method of inviting people's hearts was designed before. Gu Zuohuan looked around the field and shouted loudly: "This person - should I kill him or not?"
Immediately someone raised their arms and shouted: "Kill——"
With the leader taking the lead, the others naturally responded: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Gu Zuo smiled with satisfaction and signaled to Liu Xuanji: "Kill!"
Amidst the shouts of killing all over the place, a sharp and harsh objection suddenly sounded: "Can't kill! Can't kill -"
But it was Gu You who held his neck and tried to get a chance for himself: "You can't kill me - Gu Changshi and I are from the same clan, and both come from the Gu family in Kuaiji. How can we have the same clan to kill each other?"
Gu Zuo solemnly said: "Although we are from the same clan, righteousness lies on the left. If you don't go to the right, you will kill your relatives today because of righteousness!"
Gu Youfu came to his heart and pointed with his chin at the handsome banner embroidered on his head: "Is there any justice in the world to kill people with the surname Gu under the handsome banner with the word Gu? It is very unlucky to die before fighting!"
As soon as these words came out, the passionate shouts in the audience suddenly weakened, and only whispers remained in the martial arts arena.
This sentence makes a lot of sense! On the day of the expedition, using the blood of the Gu family to sacrifice Gu Zishuai's banner did have an ominous connotation. The ominous meaning in it was even greater than that of the banner being broken by the wind during the expedition!
Suddenly, someone couldn't help laughing, and then the person next to them pulled their sleeves hard to hold back their laughter.
Gu Zuo also felt that it was indeed very unlucky. He didn't feel it when no one mentioned it before. Now that it was exposed, he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart!
Just listen to Gu You continue to shout: "Gu Changshi, I surrender, I am willing to work hard for Nanwu Prefecture, I know Jiedu Mansion well, I am still useful! From now on, if you say go to the left, I will never go to the right.
I changed my name! We, the Gu family in Kuaiji, all follow Chang Shi..."
Gu Zuo's face was gloomy and uncertain. Kill him to sacrifice the flag. It's really unlucky. This is a world of spiritual practice. If you don't believe this, it's really not possible. But don't kill him. Everyone has come to the stage. It just stopped so abruptly and gave up halfway. It deserves everyone's help.
Is the ticket price for Baiwen?
When he was in a dilemma, Liu Xuanji quickly came to the rescue and whispered: "How about we let everyone decide?"
To put it bluntly, the ultimate goal of killing people and sacrificing flags is to boost morale. If everyone in the stadium says to kill, the purpose of boosting morale and rallying people's hearts will be achieved, then this bad luck is nothing. If everyone in the stadium says not to kill, then
Following good deeds avoids bad luck and shows Gu Zuo's magnanimity.
In addition, Liu Xuanji whispered: "There is also a marching Sima Luliang from the Jiedu Prefecture who can cut down Luliang's flag for sacrifice. Didn't you say that he is more reactionary than Gu You?"
After hearing this, Yang Jian immediately praised: "This is a wonderful plan!"
The butcher also nodded in agreement.
So Liu Xuanji hurriedly went to Jia Gui in the queue behind him and told him the whole story: "Let your people take the lead in shouting no kill."
Jia Guidao: "I just listened to a few words, and it seems that there is no suggestion not to kill. It is up to people to decide whether to kill or not, right?"
Liu Xuanji said: "Chang Shi has decided not to kill, so just do as I say, quickly!"
After a moment of delay, Gu Zuo asked the audience loudly again: "To kill, or not to kill?"
The answers in the field gradually changed from chaotic and noisy to uniform: "No killing! No killing! No killing..."
Gu You narrowly escaped death. When he was pulled off the guillotine, Marching Sima Luliang was lifted up and pinned to the position where he was pinned down just now.
Lu Liang showed no fear and kept turning his head and yelling at Gu You: "Rat! Coward! It's just a matter of death..."
Gu You didn't hear it at all. At this moment, he felt his whole body relax, and a warm feeling gushed out from his bladder. He couldn't help but pee on the spot.
