Li Cheng's lips were blue and purple, he was trembling, and he seemed to want to say something but stopped.
The big ladle seemed to understand something, and just shook his head when he saw this: "I knew that Li Cheng ran faster than a rabbit, how could we find him? Last time in Dongping Prefecture, he threw tens of thousands of friendly troops to block his way, and this time he threw Xu Dadao and tens of thousands of troops to block his way... This kind of person runs like he can fly, he should have crossed the river long ago."
Li Cheng still stood in the water without saying a word.
"Let's go!" The big ladle muttered a few words and waved his hand on the horse. "It's because I'm the kindest person who can't bear to see the poor suffer. If Yang Zaixing was here, he would have killed them all with one arrow... No matter where you are from, stay in Jingdong, take good care of your health, and don't join the army. Jingdong is about to be stable. Finding a few acres of land or working in the city is better than this... Now that I've found the river, I won't get lost if I follow the river, so I'll go back directly."
While he was talking nonsense, it turned out that Da Mashao was the lost one and was about to rein in his horse, preparing to go upstream along the river.
Li Cheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this, and then quickly tried to cross the river again.
However, as Li Cheng took a step out of the water, he felt his hands and feet were freezing cold. He finally couldn't stand it anymore and simply turned around and shouted to the big ladle:
"I am Li Cheng."
The big ladle, that is, the lost Guo Jin, looked back blankly: "What did you say?"
"I am Li Cheng from Xiongzhou." Standing in the water, Li Cheng's lips were blue and purple, and he mustered up the last bit of courage to confront her. "I am a defeated general, unable to advance or retreat, and unwilling to be a prisoner. Since you are here, it is fate. I beg you to grant me death!"
Guo Jin understood what he said this time, and immediately took out his bow and arrow from behind him. However, he could not help but ask curiously while drawing the bow: "Since you are the famous Li Cheng, if you want to die, why can't you kill yourself? Even if you don't have a weapon, what's wrong with drowning in the river?"
Li Cheng smiled bitterly: "The water is too cold..."
As soon as he finished saying these three words, an arrow flew out and hit the man right in the throat. General Li, who was recognized as the number one rebel since the Jingkang Rebellion, fell into the river.
Guo Jin dismounted, untied the ladle and put it on the table, then walked into the river and cut off the head directly in the river.
After walking out of the bloody river, the man hesitated for a moment. In the end, he was reluctant to tie the head to the side of his ladle. Instead, he untied the wet hair on the head, tied it under his horse's head, and then, taking advantage of the last ray of sunlight, hung the ladle and went upstream.
