Using his bronze sword, he silently dug a pit on the spot.
He cried while digging.
It seemed that his friendship with Gongzi Sheng was indeed deep.
Because he was so excited, he spat out several mouthfuls of blood, and his body shook.
If it weren't for the support of the bronze sword, he would have fallen to the ground.
Si and Yue sighed softly and said, "Let's help him."
I nodded, walked forward, and silently helped Shi Qi dig a grave.
I also helped him put Gongzi Sheng's body into the pit and bury it with gravel.
Shi Qi knelt in front of Master Sheng's grave, kowtowed three times and said with tears in his eyes: "Master, I can no longer keep vigil for you."
He stood up unsteadily and said gratefully to me: "Thank you for your help, Master.
The Bone Land hopes that the young master will not reveal it to others."
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
Shi Qi pursed his lips and said, "I will never thank you for your kindness.
Shi Qi will only be able to repay your kindness today in the next life."
After we separated from Shi Qi, we discovered that the ox cart had also been taken away by the rebels, and we could only march towards the Chu border on foot.
Before we had gone too far, we encountered another army.
Before we could escape, we were stopped by them.
The leader, a general in black armor, shouted loudly: "Who are you?"
I responded calmly: "We are merchants from Cai State.
We encountered a rebellion when passing through Chu State, and now our things have been taken away by the enemy."
The general looked me up and down and whispered: "Rebels".
Then he pointed at Si, Yue and Qi Yan and said: "Who are they?"
"She is the wife of the grassroots" The general turned his horse and headed towards the team.
I thought I could just get away with it, but I heard him say coldly: "Bring them here."
Several soldiers escorted us to the team.
To my surprise, Shi Qi was also captured by them, and his whole body was tied up with five-flowered flowers.
The general said loudly: "Look carefully, are there any of the rebels we just met?"
I shook my head and said flatly: "I have never seen this person before."
The general nodded slowly and said, "I really haven't seen this before."
I smiled calmly and said, "General, do you still think I will deceive you?"
At this time, dust was flying in the distance and flags were fluttering, but another team of people arrived.
There was a big leaf character flying on the flags.
I secretly wondered: "Could it be Mr.
Ye who has arrived?"
The general put his bronze sword against Shi Qi's throat and said, "Hurry up and tell me where Master Sheng is."
There was no trace of fear on Shi Qi's face, and he said indifferently: "My lord has committed suicide."
"Where is the body?"
"already buried" "Where to be buried" Shi Qi laughed loudly and said: "People are dead, why do you ask him?"
The general said angrily: "The body of the rebellious minister must be beheaded and displayed to the public.
How can you bury him casually?
Come on!"
Shi Qi said calmly: "I won't tell."
No matter how the general asked, Shi Qi always closed his eyes and pretended to be deaf and dumb and ignored him.
After a while, someone reported: "General, Mr.
Ye is here."

I was also shocked in my heart.
I didn’t expect that Mr.
Ye would catch up to me in person.
The three of us are now heavily surrounded by Ye Gong's soldiers.
We can only act according to the situation.
We will not be able to escape smoothly in a short time.
Three military chariots, escorted by more than 20 horsemen, slowly stopped in front of us.
A young general wearing bronze armor jumped from his mount.
It was Zining, the son of the Chu Kingdom's Commander Yin Zixi.
Zi Ning's eyes were red, and the beard under his chin had not been trimmed for many days.
He stared at Shi Qi with murderous eyes, rushed forward suddenly, raised his foot and kicked Shi Qi's lower abdomen, knocking Shi Qi to the ground.
Shi Qi opened his eyes, his mouth full of blood, but his face still showed no trace of fear, he laughed and said: "So, you are still alive."
Zi Ning kicked him hard in the abdomen again.
Shi Qi bent his whole body in pain and walked over.
He coughed twice and spit out a mouthful of blood.
His chest heaved violently: "A scholar can be killed but cannot be humiliated.
I will be defeated with my lord.
No complaints at all.
If you want to kill me, you don’t have to humiliate me like this.”
I also felt that Zi Ning's behavior was a bit excessive, but due to the delicate situation, I naturally did not dare to step forward to help.
Zi Ning gritted his teeth and said, "You beast, how could you treat my father so cruelly?"
Shi Qi smiled and said: "How I treat him, you can treat me ten times cruelly."
"You are not worthy of telling me the whereabouts of Young Master Sheng.
I can leave your body intact."
"I told you, the lord is dead."
Zi Ning nodded bitterly and said loudly: "Bring me the big pot."
Several soldiers set up a huge iron pot in the open space, lit the wood underneath, and filled the pot with cold water.
Soon the water in the big pot began to boil.
Zi Ning sneered and said, "Shi Qi, if you don't reveal the whereabouts of Master Sheng, I will throw you into this cauldron and cook you."
Shi Qi stood up unsteadily, chuckled, and glanced at me meaningfully.
Then he slowly walked towards the cauldron: "I don't know how my Shiqi's meat tastes."
He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and jumped into the iron cauldron without hesitation.
Si, Yue and Qi Yan exclaimed at the same time, and even I couldn't help but close my eyes, unable to bear to see the miserable scene in front of me.
Zi Ning did not expect Shi Qi to be so brave.
When everyone took Shi Qi out of the pot, Shi Qi had already died.
Zi Ning roared angrily: "Chop him into pieces and feed him to the dogs."
A deep voice in the chariot sighed: "Forget it, although Shi Qi is a traitor, he can be considered loyal to Master Sheng.
The others are already dead, we can't continue to insult him."
The car door slowly opened, and a tall young man stepped out of the car.
He had thick eyebrows, big eyes, ears hanging down from his shoulders, and his gestures exuded a sense of domineering.
I secretly guessed that this extraordinary man must be Ye Gong.
Although Zi Ning hated Shi Qi, he did not dare to go against Ye Gong's wishes.
Ye Gong waved his hand and asked the soldiers to bury Shi Qi's body on the spot and looked at me.
Zi Ning's eyes fell on Si and Yue.
Just now, Si, Yue and Qi Yan saw the scene of Shi Qi's tragic death and exclaimed, which had already attracted Zi Ning's attention to the two of them.

The two girls were afraid that Zi Ning would recognize them.
All bowed their heads.
Zi Ning whispered: "You are not."
He strode up to Si Yuyue and reached out to grab her bun.
I grabbed his wrist and looked at Zi Ning coldly: "General , we are just passers-by fleeing for our lives, why do you have to be so aggressive?"
Zining's pupils suddenly shrank.
He had obviously recognized Si and Yue.
He looked at Si and Yue, then at me, and whispered: "You are so brave."
I said calmly: "The common people ask themselves that they are no match for the general, but they will fight to the death to protect their families."
A mysterious smile appeared on Zi Ning's lips: "Okay."
I let go of his wrist and Zining got on the horse.
I thought the matter could just go away, but I saw Ye Gong in the car lifting the curtain: "Give them a car and let them follow us."
Si Yuyue whispered in my ear: "He seems to recognize me."
I secretly complained that I was in so much trouble now.
If I wanted to escape from Ye Gong, I was afraid that it would be difficult to reach the sky.
Mr.
Ye did not make things difficult for us, and the soldiers who accompanied our carriage were also very polite to us.
We followed them back and headed east.
When we camped that night, our tents were arranged for us.
Si and Yuezheng and I discussed how to escape.
Soldiers came over and asked us to go to Ye Gong.
After entering Ye Gong's tent, we saw that Ye Gong was the only one in the tent.
Only then did Si and Yue and I feel a little relieved.
I even had the idea of kidnapping Ye Gong and escaping.
Mr.
Ye said with a kind expression: "Sit down" Si and Yue and I knelt down opposite Ye Gong.
Si and Yue kept their eyes lowered, not daring to look at Ye Gong.
Mr.
Ye looked at me with a smile and said, "Do you want to kidnap me, thinking that I am a hostage and have escaped from this military camp?"
When he told me what he was thinking about, my face became hot.
Fortunately, I couldn’t see any change in my expression even though I was wearing a human skin mask: “Ye Gong is worrying too much.”
Ye Gong said: "I once promised my late father that unless the Chu country is in trouble, I will not enter the capital of Ying."
I whispered: "Mr.
Ye is worried that others will have other ideas."
Ye Gong smiled and said: "Your mind is really bright."
It could be heard from his words that he seemed to know my identity.
I asked curiously: "Ye Gong recognizes me."
Ye Gong whispered: "Young Master Sheng is dead, the king has returned to the throne, and my mission in Yingdu has been completed."
He paused and then said: "Ying Lian is my adopted daughter."
Only then did I understand why Mr.
Ye wanted to leave us in the military camp.
Ye Gongdao: "Ying Lian specially sent someone to deliver a letter a few days ago, asking me to pay attention to her whereabouts and help her protect her merciless husband."
I coughed in embarrassment.
Ying Lian really knew me well and knew that I would go to the palace to save Si and Yue at all costs after hearing the news about the civil strife in Chu, so I greeted Mr.
Ye in advance
