General's Good Friday

, must be very happy! "

"Accept your good words," Xu Xiuping smiled at him, and said again, "By the way, are you free later?"

Xiaobai nodded: "Yes, what's the matter?"

Xu Xiuping smiled and said: "That's right. The day before yesterday I heard you say that the sesame candy you bought at a store was delicious. It just so happens that my children also like it very much. So, I wonder if you can show me the way. Buy some for him to eat."

"Okay," Xiao Bai was naturally very happy, "I just happened to stop by to visit your wife and children."

So in the afternoon, Xiaobai sent someone back to the inner courtyard to talk to the general, then he and Xu Xiuping left the general's mansion and went to the shop where Xiaobai bought sugar last time.

General Xiang here knew that Xiaobai was going out again, and he was going out with that obtrusive Xu Xiuping, so he was sulking again, so he didn't mention it for the time being.

But Xiaobai and Xu Xiuping bought candy at the shop, and heard the guy talking to the old shopkeeper, and learned that the old shopkeeper's daughter-in-law finally couldn't bear his useless son, went back to her mother's house with a big belly, and insisted on divorce.

Xiaobai secretly admired the little daughter-in-law whom he had never met before, and walked out of the shop with Xu Xiuping, still thinking about this matter secretly in his heart.

Xu Xiuping took him all the way to the west of the city, and Xiaobai chatted with him about his wife and children.

Seeing him mentioning his wife and children, Xiaobai comforted him with an expression of relief and guilt on his face: "You don't have to feel guilty, now your family will be reunited, and you will cherish them well in the future, and don't let them They suffer, and the family is happy, and they won't blame you in their hearts."

Xu Xiuping's eyes were reddish, he looked at him, and forced a smile: "I hope so..."

Xiaobai smiled and said: "Now is the time to be happy, so stop thinking about it, your son will see it later, and think you are not happy to see him!"

Xu Xiuping tightly held the paper bag in his hand, lowered his head, "You...don't make fun of me..."

"How could it be?" Xiaobai smiled.

The two walked into an alley and stopped at the gate of a small courtyard. Xu Xiuping stood in front of the gate, looking up at the gate carefully.

"Is it here?" Xiaobai asked standing behind him.

"Hmm..." Xu Xiuping nodded hesitantly, "It should... yes."

Xiao Bai happily said: "Then you knock on the door quickly!"

Xu Xiuping lowered his head, as if he was a little timid, raised his right hand slightly, moved it, then put it back hesitantly: "I..."

"Oh, don't be embarrassed, behind this door is your wife and child!" Xiaobai couldn't see it, so he took a step forward and said with a grin, "Since you're shy, I'll knock for you—"

"and many more!"

As soon as Xu Xiuping finished speaking, Xiaobai had already knocked on the courtyard door. He looked at him in astonishment. Before he could speak, he heard the courtyard door creak, and a fat black man came poke your head out.

"Huh?" Xiao Bai was a little surprised, "Xiu Ping..."

The man looked at Xiaobai, then at Xu Xiuping: "You're here."

"Mmmmmm." Xu Xiuping nodded.

Seeing that the two of them knew each other, Xiaobai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "So I didn't find the wrong place..."

"Since you're here, come in."

The man pushed the door open and let them in sideways, Xiaobai pleaded guilty and went in, turned around and saw Xu Xiuping was still standing outside the door, looking at him with a pale face, just as he was about to call him in doubt, he just Seeing his face suddenly change.

Then, Xiaobai only felt something hit the back of his neck violently, his eyes went dark, and he lost consciousness.

120 five

Accompanied by the severe pain in the back of his neck, Xiaobai slowly woke up from the coma. He opened his eyes but saw only darkness in front of him. was also covered.

What's going on here... He was at a loss in his heart, the last look that Xiuping looked at him appeared in his mind, and he vaguely figured out what happened today - he was tricked and kidnapped by Xu Xiuping? !

Just as he was thinking like this, Xiaobai heard a faint conversation not far away.

"...Didn't you promise that I would let them go! Where are they?"

It's Shuhei... Xiaobai didn't know what was going on outside, he just maintained his comatose posture, and kept his ears up to listen to the commotion over there.

"Hehe, why are you in a hurry? Although you people from the Central Plains are naturally cunning and treacherous, I keep my word... At the beginning, we agreed that when I kill that Meng, your family will naturally be reunited."

The one named Meng...is a general!

Xiaobai's heart trembled, this person's accent sounded very strange, he was not from the Central Plains, and he threatened to kill the general, could it be that he was from the Huns?

As soon as Xiaobai felt the danger, Xiaobai's mind turned quickly. Xu Xiuping used to be from Shuofang. If most of what he said earlier is true, then his wife and children are all in the hands of this Hun. He... he entered The general's mansion, coming and going with him, and finally tricking himself here and tying him up, all to help the Huns murder the general? !

The general he...

"...I know that General Meng values ​​him very much. With him here, General Meng will definitely come. You...you let me meet my wife and children first!"

"Oh! I'm not stupid, why would I bring them into the city? If you want to see them, just wait until the matter is over, and come out of the city with us to see you again—as for the man surnamed Meng, does he really value this as much as you said? Boy, just wait until he comes... If he doesn't come, don't blame me for killing this kid first, and then settle accounts with you slowly!"

"He will come! He..."

"Don't believe what he said!" Xiaobai struggled and shouted, "The general will definitely not come! As soon as he receives your news, he will immediately mobilize a large team to arrest you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the black cloth tied to his eyes was roughly removed. He squinted his eyes to adapt to the light outside, raised his head, and saw a tall man with stubble on his face, about three years old. The ten-year-old man was looking down at himself.

"What did you say?"

Xiaobai also widened his eyes, looked down, and saw that the man's left sleeve was empty, but his right hand was holding a gleaming broadsword, the tip of the knife was less than a foot away from him, and the cold seemed to seep into his face The general, could not help shrinking timidly, raised his head again, mustered up his courage, and said loudly: "I said the general will not come!"

"Oh?" The big man sneered, then turned to look at the pale Xu Xiuping, "Why do you say he won't come? This official Xu said swearingly that the man surnamed Meng treats you like a treasure, and he will definitely come." Obediently come to rescue you alone."

"He...he won't!" Xiaobai felt his legs trembling unceasingly, and said with a stiff neck, "Go out and ask, everyone in Jianyang City knows that I'm just a tael of silver for him, whatever you want I bought it back, he... he is at home on weekdays, beating and scolding me, insulting me in every way..."

As he was talking, because he was afraid in his heart, his eyes were red, and there were some tears. He looked like a miserable person who had been tortured.

He looked at Xu Xiuping again, and continued with a choked voice: "There are outsiders around, and his nice words are all pretended! I think you seem to have a grudge against him, so naturally you should know. People are the most brutal, cruel, treacherous and cunning, how...how could it be possible to take the risk to save me?"

Xu Xiuping probably felt guilty in his heart, and when Xiaobai looked straight at him, he lowered his head in shame and did not refute what he said.

"Oh? Is that so?" The big man sneered, "In other words, the man surnamed Meng won't come. If that's the case, I might as well kill you first, and then worry about the rest!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised the big knife in his hand, making a gesture to chop it down towards Xiaobai.

"Ah!" Seeing this, Xu Xiuping's legs went limp, and he couldn't help taking a step back, both startled and frightened.

Xiaobai was listening to him in fear at first, but at this moment, his mind became hot, and he only thought in his heart, "If I die like this, then they can no longer threaten the general", so he unexpectedly developed infinite courage and closed his eyes. He straightened his chest.

"Ah……"

The scene where he was expected to be disemboweled did not appear, Xiaobai waited for a while in fear, only waiting for the big man to sneer.

He put down the knife and raised his eyebrows: "You're not afraid of death? Hehe, it's interesting—you can see that what I said just now was all lies!"

Xiaobai raised his head and stared at him.

The big man snorted coldly and said: "It seems that you really have a stronger love for that thief than gold, but I don't know, do you feel the same in his eyes?"

Seeing that Xiaobai pursed his lips tightly and remained silent, he said again: "Look at you, you are so thin and tender, it's strange that you are such a precious surname Meng... Huh, a woman is no different from a woman, no wonder He can also speak..."

Xiaobai stared angrily.

He turned around disdainfully, and seeing Xu Xiuping leaning against the wall trembling, he waved impatiently: "Take him out!"

It was only then that Xiaobai discovered that apart from the three of them, there were four other people in the room, all of whom seemed to be subordinates of this big man, and respected him quite a bit. As soon as he spoke, two of them immediately stepped forward and dragged Xu Xiuping out .

Xiaobai suddenly seemed to remember something, and stared at him with wide eyes: "I know! You...you are the Zuoxian King of the Huns? You really are not dead!"

"Dead?" The big man sneered, "Don't worry, I won't die until I kill that Meng!"

"You...you are really the Zuoxian king!" Xiaobai thought for a moment, "The Xiongnu and Daqing have already negotiated peace, and the border market has opened long ago, why do you still come here?
