Chapter 822 People’s hearts are fickle

Chapter 822 People’s hearts are fickle
"We brothers grew up in troubled times. At that time, small families of our size would either become vassals or be crushed to pieces by the surrounding tigers, leopards and wolves. At the beginning, everyone was just trying to protect themselves, so we were walking on thin ice. I don’t know when it started, but the brothers’ hearts grew bigger and bigger.”

Tian Heng knelt down, looked at one of the lieutenants with extremely resentful eyes and said, "Old Wu, do you still remember? When you were twenty-nine, you were only one year away from your thirtieth year. At that time, we had just joined him. The status of a warlord is even lower than that of some vassal families. As surrendered generals, we are often used as death squads. Your biggest wish at that time is to survive, earn the status of a vassal family, and let your son , If my grandson can have some status, even if he has been a slave for generations, he will not be like what he did at that time, obviously going to die."

These words made the few people who were originally extremely resentful were stunned, and the hard times in the past were recalled in their minds.

At that time, the warlords were fighting in a melee, and many big families fell at the request of the warlords. Tian Heng led them to join the warlords and was used as a bait to lure the enemy. At that time, as the leader of a group of people, he only had to sell them secretly. Originally, It can also be used in a dogleg position.

But he didn't. Instead, he was the first to rush to the front, leading everyone to complete the mission of a narrow escape, and was finally appreciated by the warlord, thus allowing this group of old brothers to take the first step on the right path in life. .

I remember that I asked the other party curiously at that time.

At that time, I remember how the boss responded to him.

Because of you, the other party promised me a dog-leg position and asked me to betray you. But if you were gone, I wouldn't even have the chance to be promised a dog-leg position, so why would I do such a thing? You are my capital.
During the ten years of war, everyone trusted each other and could protect those around them at any time, because everyone knew that if they were weak, they would not even have a chance to struggle if they did not stick together.

Since when did they actually get to this point?

"You have changed." Tian Heng stood up, his eyes changed from complicated to cold: "I don't recognize you at all anymore, Old Wu. I remember when I first established the dynasty, I was so happy. Your biggest wish is If you have a title that can be passed down from you to your son, you can then stand tall and tell your son that labor and management have not treated you badly and should give you what you deserve!"

Yes, the boss at that time was so loyal. For them, he even gave up becoming one of the eight great princes in the capital. The bosses of other families sold their brothers on the day of success, but only his own boss did not forget his original intention.
"But look at what you are like now?" Tian Heng walked up to Old Wu, stared at him and said, "Did you know that your son is in Liuzhou? Your once so precious son, every day They all praise you as a father in front of the neighbors, but what are you doing? Have you ever thought about what will happen to him if you do this? Even if you win."

Lao Wu: "."

"At that time, I felt that if I had such a father, even if he offended others later and the whole family was slaughtered, I would not regret it. So I gave up my old face and the opportunity to go to the capital and asked for one of you. A title!”

At this moment, all the warriors were silent, including Xu Hu. He didn't like Tian Heng very much because of Tian Heng's record of betraying his master several times. Now after hearing this true expression, But I had a different idea.

"Yes. You are extraordinary now. Each of you has stepped into the extraordinary. Your lifespan is measured in ten thousand years. How many sons can you give birth to? How can you be like back then, when you could die miserably on the battlefield at any time and treat your only son as a baby?"

The three of them were stunned and opened their mouths, but couldn't say anything.

"But back then, you lived like dogs, but you were still human at heart. Now, how do you still look like a human being??"

At the end of the sentence, Tian Heng almost roared!

Yes, who joined the army not to make a living?
What's there to look down upon?

The "boss" who was called Lao Wu raised his head with difficulty, the scarlet color in his eyes slowly faded, and said with great effort: "I'm sorry, Lao Wu, I've been blinded for the past two years."

Tian Heng didn't say anything, his life was gone, and this was the fate of his eyes. As for his death, he didn't even know whether such a person who betrayed Chen Qing was qualified to go to the underworld. Even if he was, he wouldn't be afraid of what would happen. Great. It was impossible for him to plead for them, after all, they really almost caused the fall of Jiangnan.

Even if he had meritorious deeds, he would at least be guilty of a crime that was unfavorable to his subordinates. It would be good if he was not punished. I am afraid that he would not be able to plead for them. He also has a family in Liuzhou.

"Boss, I can ask you something more."

"I will take good care of your family, but I may not be able to stay in Liuzhou." Tian Heng took a breath: "You can't hide this, and you don't want your children to be reviled by the people around you, right? It's best to stay away from overseas. Method."

"The boss is still thoughtful." Old Wu suddenly smiled, and even choked up when he smiled: "Help me tell my son that dad is sorry for him. What he originally earned for him has been lost by his obsession. From now on, he can only rely on himself. Okay, why is Labazi saying these bastard words exactly the same as what my dad said to me before?"

Tian Heng: "."

The other two people raised their heads slightly, but didn't say much. They were from the Tian family. There was a high probability that their children would be saved, but they might also lose their promising future because of their own sins.

People can't be too greedy sometimes.

"Please, boss." Old Wu smiled, then closed his eyes and held his breath, which shattered his heart. Then a sharp roar came out of his body, and a red light flew out from the exploding blood mist, obviously trying to slip away among it. But how could Tian Heng and Xu Hu let each other succeed? They caught the three red bugs faster.

"Is this the thing that planned this incident?" Xu Hu frowned. This thing seems to be very similar to ancient insects, and even the way to control people is very similar. I remember that there were such insects in the living corpses that he and others killed. Why do you seem to be competing with bugs now?
"Well, be careful, General Xu." Tian Heng said solemnly: "The origin of this thing is not simple. After being possessed by them, these useless men of mine have achieved their current skills in less than half a year. These This thing is not on the same level as the ancient insects back then."

Xu Hu nodded. This thing almost made Jiangnan overturn. Of course it was not simple.

"Thanks to you this time, otherwise something big might have happened."

"Ashamed." Tian Heng smiled bitterly: "If I hadn't noticed the thoughts of my subordinates, I wouldn't have suffered this disaster. It seems that Lu Ming was right when he said that I was not suitable to be a general. After the master came back, I will resign immediately, Murong Yunji is more suitable for this position than me."

"If you can do this today, you have the qualifications." Xu Hu looked at the other party and said seriously: "Now is not the time to talk about this. Is there anyone like this in the Western Navy outside?" Xu Hu said with a smile. Bloodworms in hand.

Tian Heng shook his head: "As far as I know, there are no more. High-level ancient demons are limited. If they can parasitize in large numbers, there will be no need for such conspiracies."

"That's true." Xu Hu nodded: "The Lord's trip to Yundu is probably a conspiracy. What should we do now?"

"Yundu will definitely rush to help, but..." Tian Heng looked outside the city: "According to their plan, the Northland side is afraid."

"Northland?" Xu Hu was stunned and was about to ask again when suddenly the horn sounded above Tongguan. Xu Hu frowned and Hetian Heng glanced at them. The two of them jumped up to the top of the city and looked towards the north.

I saw smoke and dust billowing in the distance, and in the sandstorm-like smoke and dust, there were countless pairs of giant pythons' eyes!
