Chapter 164: The Road to Revenge Six

Corpses littered the streets of Jiading.

The river wind in the late winter stirred the burning buildings, the wind assisted the fire, and the fire assisted the wind. The sounds of explosions and collapses were extremely shocking, and a city that was once known as an oasis in troubled times was turned into a ash.

Liu Jiankuan's soldiers and horses were already red-blooded. As long as they were not one of their own, no matter whether they were soldiers or civilians, they would kill anyone on sight. The burning streets and alleys were filled with the sound of firecrackers, swords, shouts, and the sound of horse hooves.

Liu Jiankuan rushed into the government office immediately. Li Qiande, Wu Dading, and Yuan Tao had long since disappeared. They dressed up like ordinary soldiers, mixed in with their own troops, and fled in all directions.

Liu Jiankuan's sword chased them and flew in the air, so they tried their best to push the soldiers out to resist.

The three of them initially wanted to go to the north gate, but Liu Jiankuan chased them to the north gate. They turned to the west gate, and Liu Jiankuan chased them to the west gate.

Li Qiande was very cunning. He quietly slipped out of Wu Dading and Yuan Tao's fleeing ranks and asked them to attract Liu Jiankuan while he stepped aside.

When they were far away, he fled towards the south gate. There was the water gate, and out there was the surging Dadu River. He had already arranged a boat to wait there.

Waiting on the boat was his brother.

Wu Gande ran to the boat desperately and got on the boat. He was secretly happy and ordered: "Set the boat quickly!"

But the boat didn't move. When he looked at it carefully, he was devastated.

Liu Jiankuan stood there in a golden helmet, majestic, holding a sword in one hand and a human head in the other. He was his brother.

"Li Qiande, you thief, do you still want to escape?" After saying that, Liu Jiankuan threw his brother's head at him.

Li Qiande jumped into the river. The moment he fell into the water, Liu Jiankuan raised his sword in contempt and cut off his dog's head.

Go back and find Wu Dading and Yuan Tao.

The two of them were in a hurry like mice crossing the street. They had just gotten away from Liu Jiankuan and bumped into Yang Jingxin.

Jing Xin shouted: "The sky has eyes, let me kill the enemy with my own hands!"

He waved his spear and jumped up.

Li Zhanchun and Cao Xun were also nearby to help, and the sound of killing was loud.

Liu Jiankuan came over after hearing the sound and ran straight towards the two thieves.

Wu Dading saw that there was no way to retreat and no way to escape, so he had no choice but to fight with all his strength.

Yuan Tao was different. When he saw Liu Jiankuan coming to kill him, he shouted, "Jing Xin, help me!"

Then he ran to Jing Xin and knelt on the ground.

Jing Xin stabbed him with a spear. In desperation, he grabbed the barb on the head of the gun and begged: "I am willing to sacrifice my brother alive!"

Seeing him stunned, Yuan Tao then begged, "I am willing to go to my eldest brother's grave and confess my crime. It will not be too late if you cut me open again!"

Cao Xun admonished in Jing Xin's ear: "If we kill the dog thief now, we won't be able to know the truth."

Jing Xin kicked Yuan Tao over and handed him over to the soldiers to tie him up.

Wu Dading knew that he could not escape, so he fought silently, just to retain a little dignity at the last moment.

When Liu Jiankuan flew his sword towards him and was about to take his head, his sword was deflected halfway.

A white-haired woman and a young woman jumped into the arena.

Jian Kuan withdrew his sword and was about to use it again when the white-haired woman called out softly: "Jian Kuan, let him live for now and listen to his sophistry."

"Senior sister..." Liu Jiankuan's sword fell to the ground with a clang. He never expected that this white-haired woman was actually the senior sister he missed day and night.

Seeing Malanlan and Suzhi, Wu Dading also surrendered and captured them. He and Yuan Tao were tied into rice dumplings and handed over to the soldiers for guarding.

"Uncle, junior brother, ah, junior wife..." Liu Wenxiu also arrived.

Jing Xin immediately shouted: "Hurry up and arrange all the troops to put out the fire! Uncle Li, please go and bring the Fuhu Army into the city to put out the fire. Senior Brother, please restrain your troops, they can only put out the fire, no more fighting."

Liu Jiankuan took off a human head hanging from his waist and bowed to present it to Lan Lan.

Lan Lan laughed wildly: "Yang Zhan, Yang Zhan, don't you think you are invincible? A treacherous villain can kill you with a glass of wine! Hahaha..."

Liu Jiankuan looked at the crazy Lanlan and burst into tears.

Looking at the dim sky, Jing Xin said: "I met Uncle Kuan and heard that my father's grave appeared on Lingyun Mountain. Is it true?"

Liu was so heartbroken that he had to tell the truth, "Monk Miaofeng said that he and Monk Dichen buried it with their own hands, and there were big teeth inside..."

Jing Xin still shook his head, "I don't believe it! Let's go there and see what happens."

When the group arrived at Lingyun Mountain, it was already bright and they saw a huge new tomb standing in the Yang family cemetery from a distance.

In the past few days, I don’t know how many people have paid homage to their general, and the surrounding vegetation has been trampled flat.

Monk Dichen of Lingyun Temple had prepared the incense wax paper money. Jing Xin placed Li Qiande's head on the altar and stood there, staring blankly at his father's grave.

Even so, he still didn't believe that it was the omnipotent father buried inside.

Liu Wenxiu knelt down and cried sadly: "Master, Wenxiu is late..."

Generals like Cao Xun, Li Zhanchun, and Li Zhiyong have already cried in front of their graves.

On the contrary, the white-haired Malanlan and the gold-plated Liu Jiankuan were watching from a distance, as if the tomb had nothing to do with them.

Cao Xun and Li Zhanchun each picked up one and threw Wu Dading and Yuan Tao, who had their hands behind their backs, to the grave.

The two of them knelt down, Wu Dading remained silent and just shed tears. Yuan Tao cried hoarsely: "Brother, brother, I didn't kill him, please help!"

Suzhi walked over and led Ma Lanlan to the grave, followed by Liu Jiankuan.

Jing Xin shouted: "Two ungrateful thieves! How long will it be until you fully explain the crimes that led to and from the murder of my father?"

Wu Dading murmured: "The big mistake has been made. My eldest brother is dead. It was me who killed my brother and captured the city. I am not a human being. Cut me into pieces, or crush my bones into ashes!"

Yuan Tao shouted with tears streaming down his face: "Second brother, you can't talk nonsense. It was Li Qiande who killed my eldest brother. When you came to Qianwei, my eldest brother was already dead!"

Li Zhanchun shouted: "Yuan Tao, do you want to blame everything on the dead man?"

Lan Lan waved her hand, "When he says it, I'd like to hear how they explain themselves."

Yuan Tao told him everything that Li Qiande had told him one by one, and everyone's hair stood on end.

Jing Xin shouted: "According to you, since you two thieves were not involved in killing my father, why did you rebel? Why did you come to seize Jiading? Why did you put me to death?"

Yuan Tao said: "We are afraid. The eldest brother died on my territory, and the second brother also came to Qianwei. Can we explain clearly? Li Qiande pushed us up the cliff step by step."

Wu Dading said to him sadly: "Third brother, since I told them what happened, whether you believe it or not is their own business, why bother to defend yourself? I admit that I was greedy to capture the city. My eldest brother is dead , I want to replace it!”

Liu Jiankuan spat in his face: "You deserve it?"

Wu Dading cried: "Of course I know that I am not worthy, but I have no way out. If a man fights to the death, he may be famous forever, or he may be infamy for thousands of years..."
