Xunzi didn't know how long he had been sitting here.
One day? Two days? One month? Two months?
Xunzi didn't know, and now he no longer had the energy to count the days.
"Sir, the King of Chu has sent someone to look for you again."
The disciple stood aside with a sad face, looking at the already old Xunzi, his heart filled with sadness.
"not see."
Xunzi opened his eyes and struggled to get up.
"The King of Chu has sent soldiers here this time. Sir, you should meet them."
The disciple had a sad face and was worried these days, fearing that he would be killed by people sent by the King of Chu.
After all, he didn't have much awareness, and in Xunzi's eyes, this was just a title.
"I said I wouldn't see you, so I won't see you." Xunzi glanced at his disciple. "Soldiers? How many soldiers does the King of Chu have? I'm afraid they will all be killed in Qin."
The disciple immediately became anxious and said quickly, "Master, the soldiers really have arrived, and there are quite a few of them. They have surrounded the mountain. They said that if you don't come down, they will burn it down tomorrow!"
"Then burn it. You deserved to die anyway, so it doesn't matter how you die." Xunzi closed his eyes. "Go down on your own, take the classics that I gave you, and go down."
The disciple hesitated for a moment, then hardened his heart and decided not to ask any more questions. He knelt on the ground, kowtowed twice, and turned to leave.
Xunzi could not leave the mountain, but the bamboo slips representing his life's classics were enough to calm the King of Chu's anger a little, and might even save the disciple's life.
"The Chu State is finished."
Xunzi looked towards the west, his deep eyes seemed to cut through time and space.
There seemed to be a cry of a unicorn, and a black unicorn rose into the sky and stood in the air. It looked into the distance, in the direction of the Qin State, and sighed deeply.
…
Chunshen Jun looked at everything in front of him with trembling eyes, watching hundreds of thousands of soldiers being slaughtered one-sidedly.
There were no people, no large numbers of soldiers, only wild beasts in the mountains and the mountains themselves.
They had already reached the territory of Qin, but the hundreds of thousands of soldiers under Chunshen Jun's command were trapped here without causing even the slightest ripple.
"How is this possible! How is this possible!"
Chunshen Jun gritted his teeth and was filled with anger.
"Use fire! Burn me with fire, don't hold back!"
At this point, Chunshen Jun seemed unable to ask so many questions. He shouted and gave orders to the group of people being slaughtered.
How is it possible? How is it possible to lose so quickly?
Chunshen Jun suppressed the anger and fear in his heart. He didn't know when it started, but he actually had the urge to run away.
In other words, ever since Li Mu retreated, the thought of escape has been lingering in Chunshen Jun's mind.
Run, run, run!
Chunshen Jun watched as the group of soldiers staggered to light a fire, but before the fire could be lit, it was shattered by a pile of trees.
He no longer had the last bit of resistance left. It seemed that the only option left for Chunshen Jun was to escape.
…
"We lost, we lost."
Xunzi suddenly laughed, and the black Qilin standing on the mountain also started to cry out.
This laughter is filled with sadness, and this chirping is filled with self-mockery.
"How can Qin win when destiny is with him?"
Xunzi looked at the sky, as if he had truly seen the destiny.
"I, Xun Kuang, am about to face the destruction of my country and the ruin of my family. How can I still have the dignity to live in this world?"
A mournful sigh spread throughout the forest.
"Lanling is a good place. Dying here is a good place to go!"
Xunzi laughed loudly, and the black unicorn on his forehead raised its hooves and neighed loudly.
"Xun Kuang will die for his country today!"
At this time, blood rain fell from the sky and the earth to show their shared grief.
