36. With ulterior motives (8)
Although the guard closed the door, the people still stood close to the door, as if they were guarding against someone outside and as if they were guarding against someone inside to escape.
He Rongjin turned a blind eye and pulled a chair to sit down, "How did you and Wang get separated?"
Ta preached: "The situation was chaotic at that time, I delayed the pursuit. Wang left first. After I got rid of the pursuit, the king was gone. How could the general... be in this outfit?" Although the Knicksli's dress was even more exaggerated, the person in front of him was not Knicksli, but General He Gu, who has always been famous for his iron fist. Could it be that this is actually the tradition of Jueying Peak?
"Extraordinary times are just a cover-up." He Rongjin could guess his image at this moment without looking in the mirror. He just took it over and stopped mentioning it, and asked, "Where is Qi Zhai?"
Ta preached: "Mr. Qi Zhai is gone."
He Rongjin said: "The camp is built in the mountains, and there are only two roads that can be left. Which one are you walking?"
Tabu lowered his head and hesitated and said, "It's the one on the right."
He Rongjin said: "Is this one coming to the town or the one in the opposite direction?"
Tabu knew that there must be some reason for his question so carefully, but he couldn't find a way to deal with it, so he had to say, "The opposite one."
"Is that true?" He Rongjin smiled coldly, and suddenly picked up the tea bowl on the table and threw it at Tabu.
Tabu was shocked and unprepared. His acupoint was tamped directly, and his body suddenly froze and he stared at him blankly.
"Ah!" The guard picked up the knife placed by the door and slashed at He Rongjin.
He Rongjin nodded easily and avoided it, raised his hand and pointed his acupoint.
Two of the three people in the house were immediately unable to move.
"What are you doing?" Tabu asked in shock.
He Rongjin said: "This is exactly what I want to ask you. What do you want to do, what are you doing, and what have you done?"
Tabu was confused when asked, "What is what?"
He Rongjin stared at him with a cold look, "I'll ask again, where is Que Shu?"
Tabu looked at his eyes gradually from surprise to disbelief, and finally turned into mockery and anger, and said with hatred: "You will definitely not find him!"
He Rongjin's figure flashed and suddenly appeared beside the bed, pinching his neck tightly with one hand, and sternly said: "Traitor!"
Tabu was stunned again.
He Rongjin said: "No wonder Quezhu knows everything about the Western Qiang mission."
Tabu said anxiously: "Who is the traitor! You are the traitor!"
He Rongjin was stunned.
Ta preached: "It was obvious that he defected to Quezhu and betrayed my king."
He Rongjin frowned and said, "I don't."
Tabu shouted, "I don't have it!"
Seeing that he was indignant and his expression was not as fake, He slowly let go of his hand, "It's not you?"
Ta preached: "Of course it's not me. My father is the same clan as the princess. I have swear to be loyal to my king since I was five years old. How could I betray him?!" As a warrior of the Western Qiang, such accusation is undoubtedly more sad than killing him.
He Rongjin said: "Then why are you hiding and hilarious?"
"I..." Tabu said an impulsively and his eyes moved away again.
He Rongjin looked at him, then looked at the guard, and suddenly said, "You are doubting me."
Tabu saw his lonely expression, his lips moved, and after a while, he said, "No."
He Rongjin subconsciously wanted to touch the wine on his waist, but when his finger touched the belt, he remembered that in order not to attract attention, the gourd had been discarded by him.
"Actually it's the king..." Tabu couldn't help it after a long time, "It's the king who doesn't want the general to know."
He Rongjin's heart moved, and the hand he placed on his waist trembled without even notice, "Do you know where Que Shu?"
Ta preached: "Yes, but Wang He..."
He Rong Jinxin suddenly became cold and said to herself, "I understand, he is doubting me." However, according to the scene at that time, even he could not convince himself that he really did not collude with Quezhu. Buku helped him leave, and he fled out wholeheartedly, Quezhu led his army to arrive... Everything happened so coincidental. If he were Que Shu, he would have thought so.
"How can the general be so speculated?" Tabu was excited again, "The king never doubted the general."
He Rongjin looked up at him, and his eyes could not hide their light.
Ta preached: "The king said that if he wanted to say that the general was assassinated, he believed it, but if he said that the general betrayed the Western Qiang, he would never believe it."
My heart, which was frozen just now, was suddenly shining by the scorching sun, and a warm current hit my heart. He Rongjin said: "He really said that?"
Tabu said firmly: "Yes."
He Rongjin said: "Then why didn't he see me?" It's not an exaggeration to describe Que Shu's current situation as a gangster. It's time to use people, why would he still push him out?
Tabu glanced at him and shook his head slowly.
He Rongjin said: "I want to see him."
Tabu said: "I can't decide this."
"Then I will decide." He said a tough tone.
Tabu's eyes began to wander around again.
He Rongjin said: "The most urgent task is not to escort him back to the Western Qiang safely?"
Tabu's complexion was loose.
He Rongjin said: "If you are afraid that he will blame him, let me secretly follow you."
Tabu hesitated for a while and finally agreed.
He Rongjin breathed a sigh of relief. This was the first time he felt at ease since Que Shu disappeared. "Where is he living, not far from here, why are you separated?"
"Actually, we came to the town to find out the news and buy things." Tabu said distressedly, "but the pharmacy in the town has strictly controlled the injured medicine. I plan to go to the pharmacy to borrow some when it gets dark."
Saying that it is borrowing is actually stealing.
He Rongjin's face changed and said, "Who was injured?"
"King." Tabu saw He Rongjin's disgrace and hurriedly said, "You have no worries about your life."
He Rongjin thought for a while and said, "There are Turkic soldiers everywhere outside. The pharmacy must set up heavy troops to wait. If you break in rashly, you will definitely die for a lifetime."
Ta preached: "That's not to worry about it."
He Rongjin thought for a while and said, "This matter makes me think of a solution."
Ta preached: "But..."
"By the way, what's the injury?"
"trauma."
"good."
"etc."
"Don't worry, I'm responsible. I will come back here to meet you." He Rongjin said as he stood up and walked out.
Tabu called out: "General!"
He Rongjin waved his hand without looking back and opened and closed the door neatly, leaving Tabu's all his words stuck in his throat and unable to say it.
The room suddenly became quiet.
The guard said with a bitter face: "Do you think the general will remember that our acupoints have not been untied yet?"
Ta Preached: "I can try to watch it." He concentrated his mind and began to use his true qi to rush into the acupoints.
Unexpectedly, not long after rushing, the door was pushed open from the outside and inside.
He was shocked, and his true energy immediately went wrong and almost got into a devil.
He Rongjin came in. He looked awkwardly at the two people who were still in their position when they left, and popped up the stone he had just picked up, untied their acupoints, and then closed the door without waiting for them to come back to their senses.
The guard moved his numb arms and said, "It seems that the general still cares about us."
"Puff!" Tabu spit out a mouthful of blood, lay on the bed and gasped, "I hope he will remember later." After all, he would wait until he broke the acupoint before coming back.
The guard said in shock: "When did sir be injured? Why not say it?"
Tabu said nothing. Being obsessed with evil is not a glorious thing, especially in front of the zodiac. It is better not to say anything without saying anything.
The guard said: "Why didn't you let the general come back with some medicine to treat internal injuries just now?"
Tabu: "..." He can't predict it before he knows it!
He Rongjin went for nearly two hours before he came back.
When Tabu saw him carrying a small bag, he was surprised and said, "Have you obtained it?"
He Rongjin said: "I found a few hunters and asked them for the small amount, so I went to a few more."
Tabu suddenly said, "Yes, Hunter's house will definitely have medicine for injury."
He Rongjin heard that he was not as angry as when he spoke in the evening, and said in surprise: "Are you injured?"
Just as Tabu was about to answer, he heard the guard say, "Yes. The lord still hides it. It would be better if there is medicine to treat internal injuries."
He Rongjin smiled when he heard this and took out a few herbs from the package, "What a coincidence. It is said that this herb in the mountains can cure internal injuries. Let's go to see Que Shu first, and I'll go to the mountains to find you."
