Song Xiao

Chapter 18 Thrilling

After leaving the Xingfu Inn, Chu Tianya was ready to go back to the military barracks to rest.

He was thinking all the way. Now it is the end of autumn and the beginning of winter. When the wind is in the middle of winter, the river will freeze in the cold, and the cavalry of the golden soldiers will go south.

Calculated, there is still a month at most.

"What can I do for more than a month..." Chu Tianya sighed secretly.

For the first time in his life, he felt very confused and helpless. In his previous life, no matter how far and strange a strange place he went to handle cases, even if he was alone in danger, he never felt this way. Because behind him, there are family, friends and teammates of the police force.

Now, he is completely alone "fighting alone", surrounded by people who don't trust him, even despise and spit on him. Even so, you have to change your life against the sky and fight against the "invincible" tough female real person...

Walking alone in the quiet alley to the back door of the prince's mansion, the moonlight pulled his figure very long. Chu Tianya feels that he is really a veritable "image hanging" now. The boundless sense of loneliness came again like waves.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a chill in his spine. With the vigilance of a criminal investigator's profession, he detected a trace of danger.

So he stopped and looked around. There are courtyard walls on both sides, and an alley less than ten steps wide in the middle. Except for a long and narrow hazy area illuminated by the moonlight, other places are dark and can't see.

The surroundings are terribly silent.

"Friends from Who, come out!" Chu Tianya knew that there were people hidden in the dark corner in front of him, so he knocked on the mountain and shook the tiger loudly.

The front and back really came out and listened to the footsteps, and there were no more than ten people. They gathered around and blocked all the way out of Chu Tianya.

Through the moonlight Chu Tianya, I saw that these people were all dressed as sergeants and should be the people who won the victory army.

"It turned out to be my brother. What did you do to stop me?" Chu Tianya said calmly, but he was calculating quickly in his heart: Did Ma Yan accidentally reveal the truth? Now he is here to catch me?

"Take it down!" In the dark, a man shouted loudly, and more than a dozen sergeants brushed their knives and pointed to Chu Tianya - "Don't move, just capture it!"

Chu Tianya looked around and wanted to fight against this group of sergeants or escape, unless he could take out his gun now. The man didn't suffer the loss in front of him, so he stood and spread his hands flat and said, "Everyone, why is this?"

"Stop talking nonsense - take down this spy!" Hearing the sound, it seemed a little old, but it was full of momentum.

"A spy?" Chu Tianya was stunned.

The sergeants rushed to capture Chu Tianya. He held his neck with a cold hand knife, twisted his arm with his backhand, and tied it with a hemp rope.

"You have the wrong person!" Chu Tianya defended loudly.

"It can't be wrong." The man who gave the order in the dark stepped forward and stood in front of Chu Tianya and said coldly, "Chu Tianya, a spy of Jin Kingdom!"

"What?" Chu Tianya has been bent over and looked up at the man in front of him. He is a tall and burly old man in a robe. His cheeks and beard are almost gray, and the lion's nose and tiger's mouth are big. Seeing that he was nearly sixty years old, he was still rough and wild, and he looked like a tiger.

"Old General, you must have made a mistake!" Chu Tianya's arm was twisted and sweated coldly. He was about to argue again. The old man waved his hand, and the two pawns next to him blocked Chu Tianya's mouth and put him with a black hood.

"Less nonsense - take it away!"

Chu Tianya was really angry and aggrieved in his heart. Now he is struggling and can't explain it. I guess it's going to be bad luck! - It's not Ma Yan. He really betrayed me, right?

A group of people pushed Chu Tianya for a while, as if they had entered a room and heard the door fall. Then someone pressed Chu Tianya to sit on a chair, and then tied his body, legs and feet to the chair with a rope.

"It's really bad luck!" Chu Tianya complained in his heart, "I used to bring the prisoner to justice, but I didn't expect that I, Chu, have today!"

"Do not shout, or you will end up with a knife!" Someone reached out and pulled off Chu Tianya's mouth cover, and then suddenly fell into tranquility around, without any sound.

Chu Tianya gradually calmed down and listened. There seemed to be people in the room, but there must be not many people, about one or two.

"Why on earth did you arrest me?" Chu Tianya asked tentatively.

"You spy, how dare you ask?" It was the voice of the old general. He scolded him like thunder, "As a Song native, you are willing to be the lackey of the State of Jin. It's okay to come and steal the military plane, and also instigated to rebel against our military colonel. If you don't hang the corpse gate, how can you be an example?

"A school of nonsense!" Chu Tianya scolded harshly, "When did I steal the military plane, and which general did I rebel against?"

"It's still hard-mouthed!" The old general shouted angrily, "Do you think your little trick can be hidden from the master? Everything you have done in recent days is under the control of the master! - Ma's little thief has already confessed it. How dare you not admit it?"

Hearing this, Chu Tianya was really shocked, but he immediately calmed down and quickly thought: No, if the matter is really like what the old general said, Ma Yu has already confessed. Does it still need to be so troublesome to deal with me, an unknown person? - Isn't it straightforward to cut it directly? Why not necessary? Release my seal and talk nonsense?

"Why do I feel a little familiar in the scene in front of me? ...At the beginning, didn't I often interrogate prisoners like this? He lied that his accomplice had confessed, which made him feel guilty and dared not lie. In fact, if there is really someone else's confession, he will not tell the prisoner on trial!" Chu Tianya said: With such an analysis, the old general in front of me seems to be cheating me?!

- I can only bet!

"You are bleeding!" Chu Tianya said harshly, "I'm a native of Taiyuan. Don't say it's an effect. I've never seen a golden man!" You said I was a spy, but do you have any evidence? I don't have a deep relationship with Ma Dujian, and I don't have a deep relationship with him, so how can I collude with him? - You generals, if you make a mistake, you like to catch the people under your subordinates to take the black pot; if you do it up, at least let Chu die!"

"You are stubborn." The old general approached a little and said to Chu Tianya, "In the past few days, you have frequent secret talks with Ma Yan in and out of the Star Picking Building. It has been several hours. What did you talk about?"

"Ma Dujian is grateful to me. I just invited him to have two drinks out of gratitude, and then casually talked about the military wind and moon. Is this also illegal?" Chu Tianya argued.

"Oh, I still don't admit it!" The old general actually laughed, "Then the old man reminds you - against Xishan, is there such a thing?"

Chu Tianya was suddenly shocked: It's bad! Did Ma Yan really get caught and have already recruited me?

"I can't understand what's wrong, what's wrong, what's wrong with Shanxi Mountain!" Chu Tianya still said, "If you want to add a crime, there is no excuse. If you want to kill it, kill it. Don't add the crime here in vain!"

"You're really tired of living." The old general said, as if he had pulled out a knife.

Chu Tianya heard a long "buzz..." in his ear, and then the cold blade was put on his neck.

At this time, Chu Tianya's heart tightened a little. If you are not afraid, it's really a lie. But now, the only way is to harden it to the end. As long as the mouth is loose and admits this crime, it will be a dead end!

"As long as you admit that you and Ma Yan conspired against Xishan, I can protect you in front of Master Tong and spare you not to die." The old general tightened the knife in his hand and pressed Chu Tianya's neck almost bleeding. He said, "Of course, you must come forward to identify Ma Yan's crime!"

"There is absolutely no such thing. How to identify it?" Chu Tianya gritted his teeth and argued, "You and Ma Yu have a personal grudge to murder him. You can't force me to frame you!" Such tricks are really despicable!"

"Since you don't, I'm sorry - you have to die!" These words seemed to burst out from the teeth of the old general, murderous!

Chu Tianya gritted his teeth: It's over, this old man really killed me!

Just then, the old general suddenly tore off the black hood on Chu Tianya's head. Chu Tianya opened his eyes and looked around. It turned out that it was in an ordinary private house, and there was only the old general in the room.

"I want you to be a clear ghost and open your eyes to death!" The old general raised his knife with a solemn face and said, "Look clearly, if I cut off this knife, your head will roll around on the ground like Cuju!"

The cold sweat on Chu Tianya's forehead rolled down. He gritted his teeth and stared at the old general, and struggled in his heart: to die or to live? - Do I have to betray the horse to get my life back?

"Have you figured it out? Do you want to die or live? The old general was like a hungry tiger that caught its prey, with a cold and murderous face.

Chu Tianya's crazy struggle in his heart - no, he can't fall into his plan! After all, even if he is not cheating me, I admit that Ma Yan is still a dead end, and he can't be a scumbag on the verge of death!

"Do it!" Chu Tianya gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and stiffened his neck.

"Call you to be hard-mouthed-ah!!" The old general shouted angrily and suddenly cut it off with a knife!

"Hung--" The sound of the knife was like a dragon, and it came down after wiping Chu Tianya's ear. It fell directly on the neck and close to the skin, but it did not cut down an inch and stopped.

Chu Tianya gritted his teeth with his eyes closed, his chest fluctuated violently, and gasped with one mouth.

"Good boy, have guts!" The old general suddenly laughed, shook his wrist and quickly withdrew the knife into the sheath, and then said, "Ma Yan, come out!"

Chu Tianya opened his eyes in surprise and saw the horse push the door and enter.

"I'm sorry, Brother Chu." Ma Qian hurried forward with a ashamed face, untied Chu Tianya in person, and kept making amends.

The old general stood aside with a long smile and said, "Chu Tianya, don't blame Ma Yan. It must be that he can't trust you. It's because I'm afraid that he will mishear the demon's words and follow other people's words, so I insist on testing you!"

"Try?" Chu Tianya, who survived the disaster, didn't know whether to cry or laugh. He rubbed his sore wrist and said, "If I promised you to prove Ma, has my head fallen to the ground?"

"That's right." The old general said bluntly, "If you are really such a villain, I will definitely kill you!"
