Biyue indefinitely willow under the crow

Early the next morning, Jiang Lie stepped into the secret cell, and found several guards surrounding Ling Ge at a loss.

"What happened?"

"Reporting to my lord, he... seems to have committed suicide."

Jiang Lie's eyes widened suddenly, and he leaned over to check Ling Ge's breath, only to feel that Ling Ge's breath was extremely weak, like a dead body, Jiang Lie angrily shouted, "What's going on!"

"My lord... Last night, we were ordered by President Huo to clean up his lower body."

"What!" Jiang Lie lifted Ling Ge's robe, and found that Ling Ge's legs had exposed bones.The so-called grooming punishment is to pour boiling water on the prisoner several times, and then use an iron brush to scrub off the flesh of his body until the bones are exposed.

Jiang Lie felt a sharp pain in his heart, he immediately picked up Ling Ge, and kept shouting while running to the hospital room, "Ling Ge, Ling Ge!" Forget it, he just wanted Ling Ge to open his eyes, even if they were full of hatred and evil.

Ling Ge barely opened his eyes amid the violent shaking and calling, and seeing the face that was about to be hunted so close, Ling Ge suddenly showed a childlike smile, "It turns out that you can really see the person you want to see the most before you die." Ling Ge Ge thought it was an illusion, so he tried his best to stare, fearing that if he blinked, the general would disappear.

Jiang Lie put Ling Ge on the bed in the hospital room, and hurriedly wanted someone to heal him, but Ling Ge grabbed his robe.

"Don't go," Ling Ge's watery eyes sparkled with longing, "I love you so much."

Jiang Lie's heart was shocked, he couldn't understand why Ling Ge was so obsessed with him.Just like he likes Ye Qianliang, because Ye Qianliang is daring, pure and kind, and just.He has deeply experienced obsession, but he doesn't know that some obsessions cannot be explained.

"Okay." Jiang Lie held Ling Ge in his arms, "I won't leave."

Ling Ge closed his eyes contentedly, and fell into the darkness.

After several treatments, Ling Ge finally stopped the bleeding and his condition stabilized.Will lie by the bed, as if suffering from amnesia, his head is empty, thinking about nothing.I am afraid that if I think about it, it will change, it will hurt, I will lose it, and I will never come back.

The night climbed onto people's shoulders, and after the hustle and bustle of the world stopped, all that remained was the fate of endless sighs.

"elder brother."

Hearing this familiar call, Jiang Lie hurriedly turned around, and saw Yinglou, who was dressed in a silver robe elegantly under the quiet moonlight.

I was originally in a happy and excited mood, but the taste changed when I said it, "Do you still recognize me as a brother?"

Yinglou approached slowly, and said with a calm smile, "You will always be my brother."

"Then you still want to be a villain?"

"What is evil?" Yinglou raised his eyebrows, "Maybe I'm an evil person in your eyes, it doesn't matter, I know what to do and what not to do, and it's enough to be worthy of the world and my own conscience."

It was the first time for Jiang Lie to see such Yinglou, free and easy, fearless, extraordinary wisdom, as if he had seen through the cause and effect of the world.Jiang Lie was stunned for a moment, and asked in puzzlement, "Then you join the Devil's Cult..."

"Why is it called the Devil's Cult?"

"Because you slaughter famous and decent people, it is a disaster for martial arts."

"Why do you decide that you are the right way and I am the devil? If you throw away the name of righteousness and evil, who is kinder and who is nobler than the other? You say we are evil, okay, then I will ask you today. Ten thousand precepts, Abstinence from greed, prostitution, theft, absurdity and extravagance, the leader Ling Ge has compassion for all sentient beings and has the world in mind, and vows to kill all the villains and traitors in the world, do you think this is evil?"

Jiang Lie couldn't believe it, "That's not the case at all, you killed all good people!"

Yinglou sneered, "Good man? Are you talking about the second son of Cangjian Villa, or Huo Qing? Or those officials who are full of benevolence and love for the people? There are too many things that my brother doesn't know. The second son's killer organization is disguised as Wanjie Do you know how many chivalrous men who opposed him were assassinated? Do you know how many rich people Huo Qing colluded with corrupt officials and hid? Do you know how many innocent people were killed by those so-called good officials colluding with bullies and corrupt officials? These people who claim to be righteous but do evil behind their backs should have been killed a long time ago. The leader is kind and willing to give them a chance. It is a pity that none of the people who received the warning letter will repent, so they got the Blood Spider execution."

"You are like this...", Jiang Lie wanted to say that you are breaking the law, but suddenly he couldn't say it, he remembered last night, Ling Ge sneered and said that there is no kingly law in this world. "I will kill those who cannot be killed by the king's law, eliminate the evil that cannot be eradicated by the king's law, and save the world that cannot be saved by the king's law!" Now Jiang Lie can finally understand Ling Ge's words.He is not crazy, but he is deeply enlightened after deliberation and groping, he is wise and brave with careful planning and step-by-step, and he is kind and righteous with a clear distinction between love and hatred.

"Brother, both you and the leader are saving people, but you choose to protect them, and he chooses to destroy them. Protecting a few people can't solve the problem. Only by destroying the evil in this world can we truly usher in a new life."

"Are these... all true?"

"Now that the dominance is about to be achieved, I don't need to lie to you again."

"What hegemony? What are you going to do?"

Yinglou looked up at the bright moon with deep eyes, "If I were Qing Emperor in other years, I will repay the peach blossoms together."

"Ling Ge wants to usurp the throne?!"

"The leader only wants to take down that mediocre monarch. As for the throne, if you want it, the leader will definitely give it to you."

"Is this really the only way..." Jiang Lie seemed to be asking rhetorically, but in fact he knew better than anyone in his heart that nowadays, from the emperor down to the ninth rank, corruption and indifference to political affairs, the country has long been troubled by external and internal troubles, and the people are in dire straits .It is a matter of time before the country changes hands.Part of the huge amount of money Ling Ge took from Huo Qing and others was used to benefit the common people, and part was used to recruit soldiers and horses. Many generals and officials in the court were Ling Ge's people.Compared with Ling Ge's military power and sufficient food and grass, the deficient treasury and lazy remnants are vulnerable.Wanjie Sect has planned this battle for a long time.

"Punishing the evil, promoting the good, and saving the common people are what the leader wants to do. And I, from the beginning to the end, are only for him. He wants the position of the leader, and I will help him take it. He wants the world, and I will do it for him." Go fight. No matter what he does, I, Yinglou, will accompany him to the end in this life. I think my brother can understand how I feel, right." Yinglou said, opening his arms to hug Jiang Lie.Jiang Lie was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his arms and hugged the younger brother whom he had loved since childhood.

"Jingzhulin tomorrow morning, bring the leader to exchange Ye Qianliang, don't let other people know."

After finishing speaking, Yinglou turned and left, disappearing into the palace.

The Yinglou forest in the early morning was a little damp and cold, and the two sat quietly together without speaking.Jiang Lie didn't even dare to look at him, the feelings in his heart were indescribable, apology, self-blame, shame, respect, pity, powerlessness, each one was heavier than the other, and it was unbearable.Feeling out of breath, Jiang Lie buried his face in his arms and said in a barely audible voice, "I'm sorry." Even though he knew better than anyone that an apology was useless, he still wanted to say it.

Ling Ge turned his head and looked at General Lie in surprise, seeing his extremely guilty look, so he smiled and said, "Then...you just do something pleasing to please me, if I am satisfied, then forgive you".

What is it? Jiang Lie thought about it, turned his face away, and reached out to pat his head.

Ling Ge froze for a moment, and smiled as if he wanted to melt everything, "Okay, I forgive you."

Jiang Lie heard the forgiveness, and looked at Ling Ge in disbelief. He wanted to ask a lot, but he hesitated to speak, and finally said nothing.Jiang Lie suddenly felt that Ling Ge's smile was too dazzling, so he quickly moved his eyes elsewhere.

Ling Ge leaned against the bamboo and raised his head weakly. The sun shone on his face, making him look extraordinarily holy.The ulceration and infection of the wound, the massive blood loss, and the loss of internal energy, he knew that his time was short and he would soon leave this world.

At this moment, Yinglou appeared with Ye Qianliang.Ye Qianliang also seemed to have suffered a lot, with many wounds on his body.When Jiang Lie saw Ye Qianliang, he was both happy and distressed, he hurriedly got up and ran towards Ye Qianliang, but was stopped by Yinglou.

With serious eyes, Yinglou asked word by word, "I'll give you one last chance, do you choose Ye Qianliang or the leader?"

"Yinglou, shut up!" Ling Ge was startled and shouted loudly.

Yinglou disobeyed Ling Ge's order for the first time, and continued to press, "Would you choose Ye Qianliang or the leader?"

Jiang Lie was taken aback by the rare serious expression on his face. In Jiang Lie's eyes, this younger brother has always been unruly and unruly. Can also be nostalgic.

Why do I ask this question, who would I choose? I don't even need to ask, Jiang Lie walked towards the tearful Ye Qianliang without hesitation.

Ye Qianliang cried until pear blossoms rained, "Lie, I can't live without you."

"Me too", Jiang Lie hugged Ye Qianliang in his arms, with infinite affection, "We will never be separated from now on."

Ye Qianliang's wound was still bleeding, ignoring Yinglou's resentful gaze, he picked up Ye Qianliang and left in a hurry without even looking at Ling Ge.

Ling Ge looked at the back that didn't look back, as if he had suddenly turned into a stone statue, motionless, his eyes were ashen, as if he had stopped breathing.This is his way of persuasion, he will not cry, he will not shout, only silence.

Why should I live? I have asked myself more than once since I was a child.I thought it was for my family, for revenge, and to change this bad world, but now I find that none of these are true. I insist on living to meet you.I don't care whether it's a grand plan or a hegemony, or the right way in the world, what's lost and what's gained.From the moment I fell in love with you, I fought endlessly and wandered through the underworld, just to be your hero alone.Fortunately, I have spent my blood and tried my best to protect you after many twists and turns.This road, I will stop, you walk well, stride forward, I believe that there will be beautiful scenery in front of you, which is a beautiful scenery that I can't appreciate.

This is the last look, I wish I could do something more for you.

Until the figure completely disappeared, Ling Ge slowly turned his head and complained to Yinglou with a smile, "Your brother didn't even say goodbye."

Yinglou sat in front of Ling Ge, took off his robe and put it on Ling Ge, "If you cry and say 'I can't live without you', maybe my brother won't leave."

Ling Ge rolled his eyes at him, "Don't you have the right to love if you don't know how to talk about love? Don't strong people deserve to be loved?"

"Who said, I love you, I love you whatever you are."

Yinglou was full of smiles, seeming to say something casually.Ling Ge suddenly felt very sad. "Yinglou, thank you for these years. If you hadn't helped me share the burden, help me plan, give me support, and give me warmth, I would not have lived until now, and my wish has come true. You are such a person who does not want to be restrained , but because of me, I was willing to be involved in this right and wrong, giving up the idle clouds and wild cranes, and losing my freedom..."

"No, that kind of life is not freedom, it's aimless, it's wandering. After I met you, I realized that there are people who can care for you, someone who can protect you, someone who can cling to you after swords, lights, swords and shadows, and someone who can cuddle after you have traveled around and read countless people. To find it is to be free."

Ling Ge was terribly moved, but he turned his face sideways and tried his best not to let the tears fall, pretending to be angry and said, "I can't say no to you, stretch out your hand and let me hit you."
