Three days later, at noon.
Not only Ye Hongxue and other soldiers knew that Baili Tang was going to sing tomorrow, but also the people in Wuya Peak knew it. Many people on the banks of the Daqin River seven or eight hundred miles away also knew it!
Only a very small number of people, such as Liang Qiuyu, Zhang Dongzheng, Meng Fang, etc., believed that Baili Tang could sing.
Ninety-nine percent of people don’t believe that Baili Tang can sing.
Even Baili Tang's younger brother, the handsome Prince An, was filled with confusion: "My royal brother can sing? Why don't I know about this yet?"
"General, will you go to listen to His Majesty sing tomorrow?"
Ye Hongxue said with disdain, "Are you going to listen to him slaughter a pig?"
Everyone in the world is speechless to the extreme!
You tyrant, you tyrant, do you want to make the bandits mend their ways and give up resistance through your "graceful" singing voice?
Even Meng Fang was almost unable to withstand the pressure from his subordinates. He believed that His Majesty was useless, but no one else believed him! This group of people all felt that they would be humiliated when the time came.
Why not just let Lord Zhang sing?
On the Wuya Peak, a dense crowd of people gathered together with full concentration. What were they doing?
It turned out that they were listening to a young boy telling a story!
They almost all knew that down the mountain, Baili Tang was going to sing for the soldiers...
"Let's say Lin Chong and his two companions arrived at the wild boar forest...
Dong Chao and Xue Badao said: "We were just about to take a nap, and there's no lock in this place. We're just worried that if you leave, we'll be worried and won't be able to sleep well."
Lin Chong replied, "I am a good man. Now that I have won the lawsuit, I will never leave."
Xue Badao said: "How can I believe what you say? If we want to calm our hearts, we must tie them up."
Lin Chong said, "If you want to tie me up, then tie me up. How dare I say anything?"
Xue Ba untied the rope from his waist and tied Lin Chong's hands and feet, shackled, to the tree. He and Dong Chao jumped up, turned around, picked up the water and fire sticks, looked at Lin Chong and said, "It's not that I want to kill you. It was when we came the other day that Lu Yuhou conveyed the order from General Gao, ordering us to kill you here. We are waiting for the golden seal to return with the reply."
Even if we had walked for a few more days, it would have been a death sentence. Just staying here today would have made it easier for us to return. Don't blame us brothers; we were simply sent by our superiors, not by ourselves.
You must remember: this day next year will be your anniversary. We have set a date, so please reply as soon as possible.
When Lin Chong heard this, tears fell like rain, and he was overwhelmed with grief. He said: "My lord and my lord, I have no hatred against you two in the past or in the present. How could you two save me and never forget me, whether you live or die?"
Dong Chao said: "What nonsense are you talking about? I can't save you."
Xue Ba then picked up the water and fire stick and aimed it at Lin Chong's head, but the poor hero surrendered and died.
It is true: There is no inn in the Yellow Springs, where will the three souls end up tonight?
The young man was none other than Song An. Not only did he have an amazing memory, but the stories he told were also very moving, fascinating, and gripping!
He was talking about the eighth chapter of "Water Margin", where the submissive Lin Chong almost died in the wild boar forest!
What story is Song An telling? It is about the government's corruption, which forced all kinds of heroes into desperation. Eventually, they gathered together at Liangshan Lake to rob states and governments, help the poor, and rebel against the court.
If the imperial court knew that Song An told such a story, I would ask you, boy, how many heads are enough to chop off?
I'm afraid that my entire clan will be implicated?
Fortunately, this kid no longer has any relatives. His parents are already dead. Hundreds of acres of fertile land have long been seized by his eldest daughter's father, who colluded with corrupt officials.
No wonder this kid is so bold!
Xiang Tiange and the others probably would never have imagined in their dreams that "Water Margin" was copied by a tyrant emperor?
Otherwise, wouldn't you, Baili Tang, be digging your own grave?
No matter what, the stories Song An told were really to the tastes of these bandits - the sense of immersion was amazing!
It seems like this is their story! They just like to engage in robbery and looting, and often go against the government... no, the emperor of Jing Kingdom!
Zhang Qianqian couldn't help but think of what the tyrant said a few days ago: The more stories you remember, the longer you will live.
She couldn't remember much, but she didn't expect Song An's memory to be better than she had imagined.
"What about the next one?"
"How is Master Lin?"
"Why keep a court like this? It's time to rebel!"
Even the masked man believed the identities of Zhang Qianqian and the other two, and liked Song An's story! If he were Lin Chong, it would be unfair not to rebel!
Song An didn't say anything, but looked at Yunniang next to Xiang Tiange.
Three days ago, it was Yunniang who gave them a small red pill. Afterwards, the three of them went to find the same two leaves, and then Song An began to tell them a story.
At first, Song An also thought that Yunniang wanted to harm the three of them. Fortunately, during this period, he studied medical theory with Lu Yuyi and learned a lot.
Imperial Physician Lu once told him that all medicines are poisonous. Medicine can be poison, but poison can also be medicine.
What Yunniang gave the three of them looked like poison, but it wasn't!
There's something wrong with this Yunniang! She seems to be trying to harm them, but in fact, she's protecting them.
Xiang Tiange was very smart: "Yunniang, please give the three of them the antidote. Otherwise, this kid won't continue talking today."
Yunniang smiled and said, "Boss, it's better to be safe than sorry. I always feel that there's something wrong with these three people. Look at this Song An, he's only seventeen or eighteen years old, how can he know so much?"
Xiang Tiange sighed, "If you were eight years old, you would have experienced the warmth and coldness of human nature in this world, and you would understand. Give the antidote to the three of them."
"Since the boss has spoken, how can I not give them the antidote?" Yunniang said strangely, "Unfortunately, I only have one dose of antidote left. What should I do? Who of you will take it?"
