Chapter 15, Sirius Meat Ticket
"Master Xiao, Wanyan Liang set up a trap for us and killed countless brothers of the Sirius Club. Let's just kill his son and let him taste the pain of losing his son." Yelu is full of vigor.
"Do you all think so?" Xiao Shi slowly glanced at the three Yelu brothers and saw that Yelu and Yelu Shun shook, so he turned to them and asked, "What do you think?"
Yelüzhao hurriedly said, "The ninth prince is now the only trump card in our hands. If it is destroyed, Wanyan Liang must be more unscrupulous. He will definitely use his country's strength to chase and kill Sirius crazily. It's hard to say whether we can escape from China at that time."
"What's more, Prince Xiaoyun is still in Wanyan Liang's hands," Ye Lushun also said, "If it is difficult for us to protect ourselves, what ability can we save Prince Xiaoyun?"
Other Khitan people also nodded one after another. Only Ye Lugang was unwilling to ask, "Can we take care of Wanyan Liang's despicable behavior?"
"Of course not!" Xiao Shi smiled coldly, "If we don't say anything about Wanyan Liang's behavior, he will be more unscrupulous. Since this ninth prince is his sweetheart, let's cut a knife on his sweetheart to see if he will hurt and let us cut it with a knife. Speaking of this, he patted Ye Lugang on the shoulder, "You must be willing to cut this knife yourself. Go ahead, just don't hurt the child's life.
Yerlu suddenly realized and smiled, "I see. When I cut off one arm of the boy and send it to Wanyan Liang first, let's see how he will react." Opening the door, the ninth prince in the room had already understood the conversation of the crowd. As soon as the door opened, he flew out of the door and knelt down in front of Xiao Shiyu and cried, "Don't, don't hurt me. I'll let my father release Prince Xiaoyun."
"If you have no basis, will your father listen to it?" Xiao Shi smiled faintly, "Unless you have an arm as a token, your father may believe that our Sirius will not be vegetarian."
"Don't blame us for being cruel. Blame your father. He doesn't care about your life or death at all." As soon as Yelu said, he went to drag the ninth prince, but he broke away. Then he rushed to Yelu Zhao and continued to beg. Unexpectedly, the Khitan people turned a deaf ear to his pleas, and some laughed and said, "At least you are also a prince of the Jurchin who worship the wolf god. Isn't it just an arm? As soon as you close your eyes, you pass. I went."
The ninth prince looked around the crowd with tears in his eyes, and his eyes were full of helplessness and panic. Suddenly seeing me in the crowd, I couldn't help jumping at my feet, like grabbing a life-saving straw, holding my calf tightly and crying, "Sir, help me! I know my husband is a kind person. Help me!"
I was awkwardly frozen on the spot, knowing that the child's life and death involved the lives of countless people in the Sirius Club, and even the hope of the restoration of Prince Xiaoyun of Liao and the Khitan people. It was by no means something that could be changed in one or two words as an outsider. Therefore, even if I couldn't bear it, I still clenched my lips and didn't say a word.
"I'm sorry to disturb the distinguished guests and make the White brothers laugh." Yelu just smiled apologetically at me, and then went to drag the ninth prince under my feet. The child hugged my legs desperately and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Help, sir, help me!"
I didn't want to see his fingers grasping my calf little by little by Yelu, and his pitiful eyes made me feel guilty. Although he is Wanyan Liang's son, he is no different from any child in trouble. Although his father is a damn tyrant and he may also be a tyrant, at this moment, he is still an ordinary child in my eyes.
Looking at him being dragged away from my feet, the sad cry kept hitting my nerves. Although I knew that I should not interfere in the feud between Khitan and the Jurchin, and should not sympathize with Wanyan Liang's son, I still couldn't bear to see a twelve or three-year-old child cut off an arm in front of me and be indifferent.
"Cough!" I cleared my throat and hesitated to step forward and said, "Can you see if you don't hurt the child in my face for the time being? After all, he is just a child."
Yelwang's face suddenly looked a little ugly and whispered, "Brother Bai, if you can't bear it, you can leave first. This is the feud between my Sirius Club and Wanyan Liang. Even if our brother gives you this face, the other brothers of Sirius Club will not agree.
I knew that he couldn't make the decision, so I turned to Xiao Shiyu: "Master Xiao, I know that 'Sianwolf' will save my life. I shouldn't have spoken for Wanyan Liang's son, but after all, he is just a child. Thinking that the real warrior disdains to slaughter women and children, and even if he cuts off one arm, Wanyan Liang may not release Prince Xiaoyun back. Why should he ruin the reputation of the 'Sianwolf Club'?
Before Xiao Shiyu answered, the heroes of Khitan have questioned one after another, "Wan Liang killed my Khitan people, but no matter what kind of woman or child they are, it's not too much for us to kill his son. What's the matter of cutting his arm?"
Xiao Shi smiled and said, "You are the distinguished guest of my 'Wolf Club' and the lifesaver of the Yelu brothers. Since you have opened your mouth, I can't help but give you face. Well, I'll keep his arm for the time being.
I was about to thank him, but I saw him wink at an attendants beside me. I knew it was not good and was on guard. Suddenly, the sound of the sharp blade coming out of the sheath suddenly rose, and the entourage cut the nine prince to the side with a knife. Suddenly, I didn't have time to think about it, so I had to reach out to grab the sharp blade that cut off the ninth prince's arm.
I snorted and grabbed the blade that fell like lightning for a moment before the sharp blade cut the ninth prince's arm. The palm was painful, and the blood immediately dripped down the blade. While I blocked the knife with my palm, it also cut my palm. Fortunately, the other party did not do his best at the last moment, otherwise my palm would definitely be completely scrapped.
Everyone was stunned on the spot. The first person to react was actually the ninth prince. He realized that I blocked the knife for him, hurriedly rolled and crawled behind me and cried, "Sir, save me, sir!"
I grabbed the cold blade and turned to Xiao Shi and asked coldly, "Master Xiao, what do you mean?"
Xiao Shi sighed as usual, "Mr. Bai, you just need to pretend that you haven't seen anything, or if you react a little slower, we will finish everything we have to do, and everyone's face. Why do you need to be so serious?"
I laughed and said, "Yes, I just need to slow down. Even if I have an explanation to others and this child, I have done my own efforts, but I can't offend the Sirius Club. It's really the best of both world. Unfortunately, I can deceive others, but I can't deceive myself.
Xiao Shiqi stared at me deeply and sighed, "Since you blocked a knife for this child, we won't hurt him for the time being." After saying that, he turned to the entourage beside him and ordered, "Help Mr. Bai down and bandage the wound."
"No need!" I let go of the blade, ignored the injury on my hand, and stood in front of the ninth prince and said to Xiao Shiyu, "I dare not believe your words now. Since I have encountered this, I can no longer pretend to turn a blind eye. Since I blocked a knife for him, I will block the second knife and the third knife for him. I want to save this child, whether he is the golden king or not, whether he is Wanyan Liang's son or not.
Xiao Shiyu's face darkened, "Are you going to be the enemy of the 'Sianwolf Club'?"
Looking around these hostile Khitan warriors, I suddenly realized that I was very unwise. Sirius Club is not only because of my life-saving grace, but also the only force I can rely on, but I turn against an unknown child, which can undoubtedly only be described as "idiot". I weighed in my heart, knowing that as long as I follow his entourage to bandage the wound, everyone will treat it as nothing and still be good friends. As for how they will deal with the child, I can pretend that I don't know, and I won't even see him again. But in this way, I will feel guilty all my life and look down on myself all my life. I wanted to take a deep breath and said lightly to Xiao Shi, "I don't want to be the enemy of the Sirius Club. I just beg Xiao Huizhu to raise his hand and let this child go."
"What if I say no?" Xiao Shi said coldly.
I slowly pulled out the knife from my waist and said lightly, "Then I have to do my best to let Xiao Huizhu change his mind."
Xiao Shiyi smiled and turned to the Yelu brothers and said, "He is your lifesaver, so I have given him enough face. Now he has threatened the great cause of the restoration of my Sirius Club. What do you think we should do?"
The Yelu brothers were very embarrassed. Yelugang took the lead and said, "Brother Bai, although you have the grace to save my brother, the restoration of Khitan is my 'Wolf Club' brother's belief beyond life and death, so I will not give up this goal because you saved my brother's life. I hope you understand what I mean."
"I understand, I completely understand!" I smiled bitterly and knew that he was not hesitate to stand on the side of the Sirius Club, so I sighed to him, "Although I have saved your brothers, you have saved my life more than once, and all your kindness has been paid off. Now we can fight for life and death for our own beliefs."
"Dear Lord!" The eldest Ye Luzhao suddenly fell to his knees and worshipped me, "Our Khitan has a motto called 'A life-saving, a lifelong benefactor'!" So I won't fight with you, but as a Khitan, I naturally won't be an enemy of Sirius, except that they won't help each other. If you die in a battle, I, Ye Lvzhao, will return this life to you to redeem my death!"
Yelushun also knelt down and said angrily to me, "Big brother's words are also my words!"
My heart is hot. I didn't expect that there are such pedantic and loyal people in the world. The pedantic is so touching and sad. I couldn't help but reach out to help them up and sigh to them, "Whoever of you wants to say the word 'gratitude' in the future is no longer my brother of life and death!"
The two looked at me with a complicated expression, and Ye Lushun said first, "Okay! Brother Bai, although you saved the son of my Khitan enemy, you are still our good brother!"
Yelüzhao didn't say anything, just shook my hand hard, and then retreated silently, looking like he was out of the matter. There is a faint glimmer of hope in my heart. After all, there is no hatred with the Khitan people. With their two brothers accompanying each other with their lives, I don't know if it will make Xiao Shiyu change his mind?
"Who took this guy with me?" Xiao Shi's shouting shattered my fantasy, and I saw a tall man come out more and more. It's him! There was a bitterness in my heart. I didn't expect that the first person to do it would be the life-and-death brother who had been born and died with me.
"We are no longer friends," Tony stared at me coldly. "But I admire your behavior." After saying that, he turned to Xiao Shiqi, slowly pulled out his waist knife, and said lightly, "Let's count me in. I'll guarantee this child!"
Looking at Tony standing side by side with me, I was inexplicably moved. Whether he wanted to save me or the child, he was worthy of being my good brother. Yes, once, I thought bitterly.
"Good! Since you are all ungrateful and want to be the enemy of the Sirius Club, won't I fail you? Xiao Shiyu waved his hand to the Khitan warriors around him, "Take it with me. If you can't capture it alive, you can kill him!"
"Lord!" Yelugang was very anxious and knew that his two brothers might die for their lives after the death of Tony and me. He wanted to dissuade him, but he didn't know how to speak to Xiao Shiyu eagerly. Xiao Shiyu seemed to see through Ye Lugang's mind and couldn't help saying coldly, "If your two brothers don't focus on the great cause of the restoration of the country, but they will die for two unrelevant outsiders. It's not a pity to die! How can Marshal Yelu have a son like you? With that, he waved his hand to everyone, "Do it!"
The Khitan warriors immediately swarmed up and forced me and Tony to the corner. Because there was no hatred with the Khitan warriors, and many people had just saved their lives, so Tony and I couldn't bear to fight with their lives. The knife was even more driven by them to be in a hurry. They only protected the trembling ninth prince behind them and fought against the tide-like attack of the Khitan people. Unfortunately, this mansion is very large and remote. Xiao Shi is not afraid that our fighting will be heard by people outside.
"Archers are ready!" Xiao Shi saw that the warriors could not do anything about us for a moment, so he gave a loud order to the crowd. The warriors retreated one after another, and many people raised their crossbows at their waists and aimed at me and Tony. Looking at the dark arrowheads, I remembered the accuracy when they shot the guards and the secret guards of the camp last night. Knowing that I had no resistance in front of them, I couldn't help turning to Tony and joked, "I didn't expect that I was an idiot. You are also a fool. Do you regret dying with me?"
"I died to save this child. Don't be sentimental!" When he died, Tony still didn't look good to me, but I didn't want to die here with him, so I said loudly to Xiao Shi, who was three feet away, "Slow the arrow. You are just going to force Wanyan Liang to let go. If I have a way to make Wanyan Liang let your Prince Xiaoyun go, can you let go of this child?"
Yelügang, who was worried about the lives of his two brothers, couldn't help asking urgently, "What can you do? If Wanyan Liang can let Prince Xiaoyun go, we will naturally let his son go. At the beginning, the kidnapping of the ninth prince was also a must-win. Such actions that threatened the lives of women and children were not the acts of our Khitan warriors.
The Khitan warriors around them lowered their crossbows. They have no hatred with Tony and me, and many people even have some friendship with us. What's more, our life and death also involve the lives of Yelü and Yelüshun, so they don't really want Tony and me to die. They just hesitate between the great cause of rehabilitation and personal feelings. When they heard that I had a way to save their Prince Xiaoyun, they naturally didn't want to fight any more. Only Xiao Shiying's face was ugly. Obviously, he was angry that Yelu just agreed to my request in front of him, completely ignoring the authority of his master.
I knew that Xiao Shi was the owner of the "Wolf Club", so I hugged him and said, "Master Xiao, what do you say?"
Yelü just saw that I turned a blind eye to him and suddenly realized his recklessness. He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed and hurried back behind Xiao Shiwei to show respect. Xiao Shiqi cleared his throat and said, "How can you save Prince Xiaoyun?"
"I can't say this clearly for the time being," I laughed. "In a word, I promise you can exchange the Nine Prince for Prince Xiaoyun."
"Why do I believe you?" Xiao Shiqi asked coldly, "Who knows if this is your delaying plan?" Will you tell the investigation camp and let Wanyan Liang catch us all?
"I believe in him!" Before I speak, Ye Luzhao in the distance has been the first to answer Xiao Shiyu, "The White brothers are open and have nothing to do with the Jin people. If he can risk his death to save an unknown child, he will never betray us. I, Ye Luzhao, am willing to guarantee it with the head."
Yelushun also said, "If the White brothers attract the investigation of the secret guard, I, Yelushun, am willing to cut my head to the Lord."
I looked at the two of them gratefully. With their promise, I didn't need to say anything more. Xiao Shiyu's face was a little unhappy, and for a moment, he brushed his jaw and muttered without saying a word. Ye Lugang also whispered, "Lord, Bai Zhuang is a believer, and we can trust him. If you are worried, we can also move the nine prince to a new place, so as to ensure that it is safe.
Xiao Shiyu did not agree immediately, but asked, "We can't save Prince Xiaoyun in every way. With just one sentence from an outsider, you believe that he can do what hundreds of warriors of our 'Wolf Club' can't do alone?"
"We believe!" The three Yelü brothers answered almost with one voice. The warriors all turned their eyes to Xiao Shihui. Obviously, the Yelu brothers were quite expected in the Sirius Club, and their words had a great impact on everyone. Under the eager gaze of everyone, Xiao Shiqi could not disobey everyone's wishes, so he had to nod to me and say, "Okay! Just trust you once. I will give you three days. If there is no news from Prince Xiaoyun in three days, I will do it my own way. In addition, don't forget that two people are using their heads to guarantee you.
I secretly complained in my heart. In fact, I just intended to have a try. I'm not sure if I can succeed. I didn't expect that everyone would be wrong, thinking that I could guarantee that I could save their prince. Yelu Showa Yelushun still used his life to guarantee me, which didn't embarrass me. ? But when it came to the end, I couldn't retreat, so I had to bravely agree: "I will definitely bring a reply to the Lord within three days."
"Good! I'm here waiting for your reply! You can go now." Xiao Shi said and waved his hand to the warriors, and everyone immediately made way. I turned around and looked at the ninth prince behind me, and then whispered to Tony, "I entrusted you with the safety of this child. I don't trust that master."
Tony stared at me with suspicion, "Why are you sure that you can do something that so many warriors can't do? Why do you want to pull the Yalu brothers and me on the back? If you don't come back in three days, I have to die with the Yelu brothers.
"Don't worry, you won't die!" I smiled confidently at Tony and waved goodbye to the Yelu brothers. After leaving this extremely large mansion, I secretly cried in my heart. Looking at the strange long streets and alleys outside the gate, I suddenly felt that I was like a trapped beast forced into a dead end. Except for a road to go to the dark, I had no way back.
More unfortunately, this road determines the lives of so many people, me, the Yelu brothers, Tony, and the unlucky Prince of the Nine Kingdom of Jin. I didn't even know his name and tied my life to him. I didn't dare to think whether it was worth it or not?
