Chapter 47: Losing all conscience

"Are you sure that before you arrive in the fishing village, you don't know that the goods you want to escort were those innocent women?" Xu You said calmly: "It's not that I don't believe you, but that you violated your oath first, which makes me have to be more suspicious!"

Shan Zong was silent for a moment, sat upright, knelt on one knee, and a short dagger of five inches long from between his right finger. He stretched out his index finger with his left hand and suddenly cut a deep blood mark.

Seven drops of blood fell, and it was painted into a strange irregular pattern. The Shanzong looked so naive, and he changed his previous carelessness and said, "Although I am an unworthy descendant of the Shan clan, I also know that some things can be done and some things cannot be done! It is better to kill them with one knife than to rob a good man and abduct as a slave. Even if I die, I would not bother to do such beastly behavior."

Xu You glanced at He Ru, and he nodded in a difficult situation, indicating that Shan Zong did not lie about this. The four Yin Fu Ge are the best at identifying people's hearts. As long as they are not too cunning and strict, it is generally difficult to hide He Ru from observing people's secret techniques.

"Okay, I feel that I have a relationship with you, so I believe in you again. But remember, this is the last time!"

The people at that time valued the oath. Shanzong promised Xu You that he would not step into Wu County within three years. After leaving Minghai, he settled in Kuaiji County first, not as breaking his oath. Later, he went to the fishing village and thought that it would be a stop to escort goods northward. Although it was contrary to the oath, it was not impossible to defend. Unexpectedly, the situation turned sharply. Shanzong, who was desperate, had to take Zhu Lingbo hostage and headed straight to Qiantang, unable to stay, and destroyed the oath.

Faced with Xu You's generosity, Shanzong was both ashamed and grateful. The pirates gathered all kinds of evil people in the world, including the land, both the south and the south, there were Wei and Chu, both men and women, both female and male. These thieves burned, killed, plundered, and committed all kinds of evil. Some were obsessed with eating people's hearts, some preferred to lustful women, and even more enjoyed torture prisoners. After staying in this environment for a long time, even the best people would gradually develop evil thoughts and make some bloody behaviors that surprised him. But the point that made him feel that he had not completely fallen into depravity was to keep his promises and never break his trust because of his own interests. Therefore, Xu You's understanding allowed him to retain his last, poor self-esteem as a person.

"Brother Shan, this man who you don't want to reveal your name seems to value your talent very much. Even if you deceive me, you will have to bother to pull you into the group..."

The man did not clearly state that the so-called goods were the people sold, and the purpose would naturally not be too simple. To put it simply, it was to ask Shanzong to submit a letter of submission. As for whether this letter of submission occurred when he knew or not, it was no longer important! As long as the group of women were transported to the Qingzhou border, the stain on their bodies would never be washed away. At that time, the handle was in hand and they were kneaded or pinched. Isn’t it a piece of cake?

Shanzong smiled bitterly. He took Zhu Lingbo out of the fishing village and did not go back to Kuaiji County to find the man to solve the trouble at hand. Instead, he headed north and plunged into the dead end of Qiantang like a headless fly. He saw through this point and was speechless for a moment.

He Ru frowned and said, "When Shanzong arrived at the fishing village, Zhu had already begun to secretly search for Zhu Lingbo's whereabouts. The surrounding area of ​​Puyangjin was blocked for more than ten miles. Since this person dared to do such a business, the news must be enlightened. Zhu's movements must not be hidden from him. But why did you still ask you to take a big risk to transport those women even though you knew that the fishing village had become a Jedi?"

Shanzong fled for a while, physically and mentally exhausted. In fact, he had not thought about the hidden truth carefully. He Ruyi's analysis immediately realized the problem and said, "Mr. said very much. It seems that he is not trying to pull me into the gang, but he wants to kill me!" Then he looked angry in his eyes and said, "At first I respected him as an amazing hero, but I didn't expect that he was a beast with human face and beast hearts. If you have the chance in the future, you can kill this guy to calm his aura!"

"You met him for the first time, and there was no grudge or grudge before. If you were to kill you, you would have lost a life in vain. What's the benefit to him? He Ru shook his head and said, "What's more, you are the first person recommended by the pirates in Minghai. Isn't he afraid of offending the pirates in Minghai?"

Shanzong was stunned and said, "That's right! I have no grudges and no grudges, why bother to cause trouble for the thief?"

Xu You said with some advice, "Everyone knows that pirates in the sea are not easy to offend, especially without much benefit... This person is either crazy or moody. He treats you like a distinguished guest at the last moment, and wants to sleep and eat with you. The next moment, he treats you like a hatred, and wants to crush your bones and ashes... Brother Shan, in your opinion, what kind of person is he?"

Shanzong carefully recalled his experience of dating with that man and said, "He is not like a madman or a moody person. Instead, he is gentle and elegant, and he is elegant and elegant in his actions. He never looks down on others in his words, so he is easy to get close to him."

"The villain is just hateful, but the hypocrite is terrible!"

Xu You sighed and said, "If what I expected is not bad, he asked you to go to the fishing village to die, which has two meanings. One is to see your abilities. After all, the pirates in Ming Hai are famous. If they can take the woman out of the siege of Zhu, it means that they have outstanding talents and can win you over with money and beauty. It is not impossible to be loyal to you in the future."

"Rong Di's mixed dog talent," Shan Zong spat and cursed: "Go to be his grandma's big dream of spring and autumn!"

Xu You smiled. In the hearts of people without bottom lines, the bottom line of everyone in the world can be measured by value. Money, beauty, family, brothers and friends always have things you care about, so there are chips to break through your bottom line.

But they don’t know that sometimes, what is carefully guarding the bottom line is an illusory thing that cannot be touched or touched, and there is no way to measure it with value. Only when you hit it hard can you understand how hard its bones are, how straight its back is, what is hard and unshakable, and what is straight and unbendable.

It is called conscience!

Whether human nature is good or evil, the distinction between good and evil is within the scope of human nature. What makes human nature different from animal nature lies in the conscience that has never been destroyed, so that he knows what can be done and what cannot be done!

"Second, I think he is planning to blame the plunder of the good man when things are irreversible!"

Shanzong shook his body, his eyes glared like copper bells, and after a long time of sound, he came to his senses and said, "You...you mean..."

He Ru obviously thought of this level and said, "Qilang is right. This man is deeply thoughtful and decisive in dealing with things. Faced with the desperate situation of being surrounded by fishing villages, he immediately chose to give up the rescue and arrange a plan to escape after the disaster. The reason why Shanzong went there was to frame the pirates in the Minghai. This also explains why none of the twenty-seven people in the fishing village were alive, either died in battle or committed suicide. If Shanzong did not escape early, he would definitely die there - either being killed by Zhu's troops or being plotted against by these thieves from behind."

Xu You continued: "Brother Shan looks very handsome and is extraordinary. As long as Zhu carefully investigates it, you will definitely find out your identity. At that time, the pirates of Ming Hai made enemies with Zhu, which was equivalent to completely offending the entire Wu County and even Yangzhou clans. They also took the blame for plundering good people for nothing, which was just enough to give the navy the excuse to send troops to encircle and suppress the enemy."

Shanzong was in a state of turmoil and said, "No wonder, he gave me a token, and he designated me as the most respectful one. When he arrived in the village, he could order everyone to obey orders. It turned out that all this was a vicious plan to confirm my mastermind!"

...

After Shanzong arrived at the fishing village, he showed the token. Everyone in the village immediately bowed down and obeyed the order. No one questioned or resisted. The whole process did not cause any disturbance. Even if Shanzong was someone they had never seen before, as long as the token was in hand, everything could be decided in one sentence, including their lives.

He had just arrived without any suspicion, and checked the goods. They were good brocades on a boat, hidden in the mezzanine of the cabin, with dozens of baskets of fish and shrimps on it. The villagers did not hide it from him, saying that this was a private transaction. They hid the brocades under the fish and shrimps, secretly transported them to the Qingzhou border, and then opened the joints and sold them to the wealthy merchants of the Wei Kingdom.

The two countries of Chu and Wei did not have open markets, and the north-south difference between brocade can make huge profits, so the private transactions are very prosperous. Shanzong also heard that he was not a good person when he was in Minghai. He would not care whether doing so violated the laws of Chu, nor whether tax evasion caused the reduction of lijin in the court. He only had the intention of repaying kindness and began to actively participate in the preparation of the northbound route and the formulation of various emergency plans.

The small fishing village seemed to be isolated from the world. He had no idea that there was already a panic outside. Zhuge Zhuge Zhuzhi of Jiangzuo took over the command and began to look at the small fishing village.

The storm is about to come and the wind fills the building!

That night, the leader of the villagers took him to an underground secret room, where he met Zhu Lingbo for the first time. The little girl's hair was scattered and tied to a pillar. She stuffed her mouth with a cloth, and she couldn't speak at all, but her eyes were still full of anger and aloofness, and she did not lose her fear and pain because she became a prisoner.

The leader explained in a low voice that Zhu Lingbo suddenly broke into the fishing village more than ten days ago and wanted to take a boat north to Qiantang. After being rejected, he ran to the boat privately, but happened to find brocade in the mezzanine and threatened to go to the government to report it. In desperation, he had to arrest him and lock him in a secret room.

Who would have thought that this woman was actually the girl of Zhu's family. Now she has caused Zhu's troops to search outside. He didn't know what to do. He could not let go or kill him, so he asked Shanzong to decide.

Shanzong was shocked and felt it was quite difficult, but after meeting Zhu Lingbo, he couldn't escape, so he wanted to lead the leader to go outside and discuss. The leader was very respectful and even called Shanzong's master many times, which made Zhu Lingbo misunderstand that he was the mastermind, and later he couldn't defend himself.

When he got outside, Shanzong asked, "You dare to arrest Zhu's girl?"

"She was wearing ragged clothes for some reason. We didn't take it seriously. No matter how hard she looked, she didn't look like a girl from Zhu. She just wanted to wait for the owner to come and set off to head north before letting her go, but who knew that she had reached this point of trouble!"

In order to avoid the pursuit of his family, Zhu Lingbo changed his clothes and dressed up like a little beggar. The little red horse was also dirty and skinny, and lost his usual Shenjun. He lied that it was a lost horse picked up in the valley. The thieves in the fishing village were already doing the plundering women, so how could they not be given to the door? With Zhu Lingbo's appearance, he could definitely sell it at a good price and give it an additional horse, which was enough to match two young girls. He was so obsessed with greed and bold, so how could he not resist the action?

It was so difficult to blame them. Shanzong thought about it and it would be useless to send them back. It was hard to explain this kind of thing. Zhu was not a reasonable person, but he couldn't kill him. When he was in a dilemma, he couldn't sleep at night and quietly left the room. While wandering around, he heard the conversation between two villagers and learned that fresh horse meat was hidden in a secluded house.

Horses are rare things, and they are rare to see at a loss, let alone eating horse meat. Shanzong is not a fool. He immediately understood that this was Zhu Lingbo's horse, and was killed by the villagers and collected the meat and stored it.

It’s not surprising that Zhu Lingbo has a horse, but why didn’t the leader mention this matter to him before?

The more Shan Zong thought about it, the more confused he became. He avoided the villagers who were patrolling the night, searched the dark room underground, and found three imprisoned women. He flashed in and knocked two out of them, and interrogated one of them. Only then did he know that they were good people who were looting from Linhai County. Before them, more than a dozen people had been transported away on the boat. Shan Zong finally understood what kind of place he was in and what kind of people he was carrying to do things!
