Chapter 389 Kusi Lao's Performance (1)
"Safe, what's wrong with you?" Zafir was smearing wound medicine on his arm while chatting with others when he suddenly heard the sound of the door curtain. When he turned his head, he saw a man being carried in by two Tang soldiers and threw him to the ground.
The man was beaten to the point of blood and there was almost no good piece of meat on his back. Out of the affection of his companion, Zafir went over to help him to the couch, looked at his face and found that it was Safe, so he couldn't help but ask loudly. Others also looked over.
"What else can I do? I'll be beaten by that man Qin." Old Kusi forced out a smile and smiled at Zafir.
"How could you be beaten like this?" Zafir was very puzzled. What did Safe do to get the general who interrogated him to order him to hit him like this.
"I didn't do anything, just scolded and asked General Qin as you said, and then I was whipped. I didn't remember how many whips I had hit. I just remember that after I hit it, my back almost lost consciousness." Old Kusi said again, looking weak and weak.
"No, they shouldn't be so angry. Could it be that they're a replacement?" Zafir was confused, but seeing that Safe was so miserable, he said to him: "I'll give you medicine. Fortunately, that man Qin gave us a few doses of injury medicine."
"Thank you very much." Mr. Kus continued to say weakly.
"We have all been captured by the Qin man, and we are unwilling to serve them, so we should naturally help each other." Zafir said and began to apply wound medicine to him.
There were wounds everywhere behind Mr. Kuss. It took Zafir a long time to clean the wound. It was almost dark.
During this process, several more people were thrown into the tent, and they all had signs of being whipped. Zafir asked, and learned that he had indeed changed his interrogative general, and his suspicion of Safe being beaten so badly was completely eliminated.
"Okay, it's finished applying, you can get up." He said to Old Kuss.
"I'd better thank you again." Old Kuss said with a smile.
"I don't have to thank you for saying it." Zafir emphasized again and said, "It's time for dinner, and everyone went out to line up to get the meal. Do you go out to get the meal by yourself, or will I help you get it back? The man Qin, who manages us, also saw that you were beaten so hard that you were beaten, and would agree to me to make a serving for you."
"No need." Old Kuss said: "I have a back injury, not a leg or foot injury. I can go out to get food by myself." As he said, he stood up from the short couch. But perhaps because of the injury that affected his back, he staggered and almost fell to the ground after standing up.
"I'd better go and get food for you." Zafir advised again.
"No, I can go and get my own meal." Mr. Kuss gave the same answer, and walked out of the tent.
"I'll support you." Zafir said hurriedly again, and was about to walk over. But after he took a step, he suddenly felt something was stepping on his feet. He looked down and looked down. It was a rectangular thing. He quickly picked it up? Rubbed it a few times and saw that it was made of a kind of hard rock? The five sides were very smooth? Only the last side was carved with patterns, which seemed to be written by Tang Kingdom.
"This fell from Safe's body. Why did he carry such things on his body?" Zafir couldn't help but think.
"It's time to eat!" He was thinking? This shout came from outside the tent. Zafir immediately stopped thinking about the things he picked up and tucked them into his waist. He hurried out to get food. He hadn't eaten anything yesterday morning until now? He hadn't eaten anything for more than thirty hours, and he was almost hungry. At this time, nothing mattered.
"Leave some for me! Leave some for me!" He ran out of the tent and lined up at the end, and found that there was not much food? He shouted immediately.
"Save more food in front? Don't eat it all!" someone else said.
"Don't scream!" The Huotou Army, who was making food, shouted loudly: "I don't care what you are saying. If anyone dares to scream, I won't give him food!" After that, he murmured in a low voice: "The prisoners are still so rampant! They should be hungry for three days, and be honest in the future."
Everyone immediately fell silent. Because they were beaten and punished to starve because they were unwilling to serve Tang Jun, it was too embarrassing to be banned from eating because they shouted loudly to each other, and they would still be hungry? Very unworthy.
Zafir, the people who were in the last line, dared not shout anymore, but were still a little anxious. Don’t eat much? Once the people in front beat more, the people in the back will definitely beat less? Not to mention filling your stomach, even stuffing your teeth may not be enough.
Fortunately, the Hokkaido Army was fair when it was serving everyone? Everyone got the same meal? Zafir was relieved.
After the meal, Huo Tou Jun left with his stuff. Everyone squatted in the yard in groups of three or three, holding thick cakes in their hands. Of course, this thing was not delicious, but they had eaten something more unpalatable than this, so they didn't care.
"Why did you come out of the tent after so long?" Kuss finished half of the cake, drank cold water and tried to squeeze his throat, and asked Zafir again.
"Should you wait." Zafir did not answer his question immediately, but ate the cake in his hand as quickly as possible. He also drank a large sip of water and swallowed the rice. Then he took out the rectangular thing from his waist and said to Mr. Kus: "This is what you lost."
"It's mine." Old Kuss was shocked, but he said calmly on the surface.
"This is something from Qin'a country. If I remember correctly, this should be something that represents the identity of Qina country's general. How could you have it?" Zafir asked curiously.
"This was found from him after I was fighting with Qin Na's army yesterday." Kusi's face remained unchanged. "There are people in my family doing business and have been to the land controlled by Qin Na's country. They knew that this kind of thing is very valuable in Qin Na's country, so they searched it and put it on them, preparing to sell it to their merchants after the truce with Qin Na's country."
"Can this thing be sold for money?" Zafir looked at the thing in his hand even more curiously.
"Of course, ordinary people cannot sell it. Just like the identity certificates of our generals of the Great Food Kingdom are not allowed to be copied, and they are not allowed to be resold privately, Qin's country will imitate it at will, and the identity certificates of officials will be sentenced to death. Ordinary merchants dare not buy and sell it.
But some very wealthy businessmen would want to hide such things privately and ask for purchases from the outside world, and they could sell them to such merchants. My family happened to know such a Qin businessman, so they could sell them for money.
Moreover, even if it cannot be sold, it can be kept for collection. When I get old and return to my hometown and someone comes to visit me, I can point to this thing and say to the visitor: 'This is the identity of the thousand-man commander of Qin. When I was fighting with Qin, I led troops to severely damage a thousand-man team of Qin and killed the thousand-man commander'." Mr. Kusi said with a smile at the end.
"Haha, you obviously belong to a lieutenant, but you say you are a lieutenant. Our 1,000 team is equal to the four or five regiments of Qin'a Kingdom." Zafir went all out of suspicion and laughed.
"The vast majority of people in the Great Food Kingdom do not know the military organization of Qin's country, so of course I can only exaggerate it." Old Kusi said again.
"Haha!" Zafir continued to laugh.
He smiled for a while and said to Mr. Kusi: "Why didn't you say you could sell it earlier? If you had known that you had a channel to sell it, I would definitely keep this thing when I killed the general Qin and sold it to you at a cheap price, and then sell it to the merchant Qin."
"It's not too late to know now." Kusi said: "At the time of the time, the governor will win and regain half of the lost camp. We are in this half camp. When the Qin army retreats, we can take advantage of the chaos to kill a few Qin generals. We can not only make contributions, but also obtain spoils."
"You're right." Zafir immediately agreed: "At the time of day, the Governor will regain this camp. We will have a chance to make another contribution." He snorted coldly and said: "Those who surrender to the Qin army will definitely be liquidated."
"Yes, they will all be liquidated." Old Kusi said quickly.
The two chatted for a while, and a small wind blew in the air. They looked around again and found that most of them had already returned to the tent to rest. They quickly washed their hands with cold water and walked into the tent.
After returning to the tent, they saw that everyone had already lying on the couch. Not only did they not eat for more than 30 hours, they had not slept for more than 30 hours. Now that they were hungry, they were basically resolved, and their sleepiness surged up and occupied their brains completely. They fell asleep on the bed. Seeing this, Zafir stopped talking and lay down on the free couch and fell asleep quickly.
I don’t know how long I slept, but Old Kuss suddenly opened his eyes, opened it for a while and then closed it again.
"You can't sleep?" Suddenly, this sound rang from beside him.
"Zafir, you can't sleep either?" Old Kuss was shocked and said softly.
"Yeah." Zafir nodded and said, "I have a problem. If I rest in the wild, I can fall asleep even if the environment is bad. But if I sleep in the house and lie on the bed, I can't sleep at all if the conditions are too poor. Because I didn't sleep last night and I slept for a while today, I still woke up."
"I don't have this problem. I'm just worried about the rated workload that will be arranged tomorrow. We are all people who are unwilling to serve Qin's country and have no use value for them. I think Qin's person most of them want to exhaust us to death, and the rated workload will not be low." Kusi said.
"You can quickly drive this out of your mind." Zafir said: "No matter how you think about it, the rated workload will not change. Thinking too much will make you unable to sleep. Evicting it quickly and then going to bed."
"I'll try." Old Kuss agreed, closed his eyes and tried to drive it away; Zafir would continue to squint on the couch.
But at this moment, a shout of Chinese language suddenly came from outside the tent, and a light flashed on the tent.
