There was an extremely weak sound in Liu Tao's ears, and then he felt a pain in his chest, and his body gradually lost strength.
"Well..."
Liu Tao wanted to scream for help, but unfortunately his mouth was tightly covered.
"Uh...uh..."
After exhausting all his strength, Liu Tao still failed to give Zhang Lu any warning, and he finally gave up.
As his power continued to disappear, his consciousness became increasingly blurred, and Liu Tao completely merged into the darkness.
Zhang Lu, who was not far away, had no idea what was going on in the city gate. He was still waiting anxiously.
"Liu Tao, what are you doing? Move quickly!"
...
There was no response, not even a sound.
"Liu Tao!"
Zhang Lu received no response and shouted again.
...
The sound this time was very loud, and it was absolutely impossible for Liu Tao not to hear it, but Zhang Lu still didn't get any response.
"You guys, go and see what's going on at the city gate!"
Zhang Lu still refused to give up and ordered the last few guards around him to step forward.
"Lord..."
The five personal guards placed Zhang Wei on the ground. They all looked at Zhang Lu with fear in their eyes and looked at Zhang Lu in embarrassment.
"Look what I'm doing, why don't you go quickly!"
Even though Zhang Lu was roaring angrily, the five guards remained indifferent, and they all froze in place.
Zhang Lu's expression changed, anger was written on his face, and his hands trembling while pointing at the five personal guards.
"Okay, you all have rebelled, right? I'll go on my own!"
Pulling the reins gently, Zhang Lu prepared to step forward in person.
But at this moment, a voice came from not far away.
"Prefect Zhang, where are you going?"
This voice made Zhang Lu tremble all over, and his whole body froze in place.
Zhang Lu was heartbroken!
Why?
Why do things always happen like this?
All the good things you imagine will not happen as expected, but all the misfortunes will come one after another!
This voice is so familiar to him!
Even if he turns into gray, Zhang Lu will never forget the owner of this voice!
"You...why are you here?"
Now that things have happened, Zhang Lu has calmed down, and he no longer wants anything extravagantly.
He knew deeply that everything... ended here!
"According to the order of the military advisor, I came here to take charge of Luocheng and wait for Governor Zhang here!"
A figure gradually emerged in the dark streets of Luocheng, and then countless soldiers poured out, instantly surrounding Zhang Lu.
Once upon a time, Zhang Lu remembered someone telling him that Liu Zhang could not escape even if he had wings!
But at this moment, the words "It's hard to escape even if you have wings" are obviously the most appropriate words to use to return it to him!
"Wu Yi... I didn't expect that the one who would take my life in the end would be you..."
The general who appeared in Zhang Lu's eyes was none other than Wu Yi, the Jianwu Colonel who Liu Zhang personally conferred!
"Haha, Prefect Zhang has been praised too much. I dare not ask for this credit! As for Prefect Zhang's life, I still have to leave it to Master Zhou Mu!"
"So you are deliberately hiding in secret just to capture me alive?"
Zhang Lu showed a smile and looked at Wu Yi with great disdain, with great provocation in his eyes.
When Zhang Lu knew there was a problem in Luocheng, he thought of this result.
The seemingly peaceful Luocheng was just trying to lure Zhang Lu in order to achieve the goal of capturing him alive.
"Not bad! It's a pity that Prefect Zhang doesn't seem to want to cooperate..."
Wu Yi looked ahead indifferently. He knew why Zhang Lu looked at him like this.
Zhang Lu simply wanted to threaten Wu Yi with suicide, and his goal of capturing him alive was in vain!
But can Wu Yi be threatened by him?
of course not!
Jia Xu has made it very clear to Wu Yi that Zhang Lun can be captured alive as much as possible, but if something cannot be done, just take the head back!
"When Liu Mao was supported in the first place, it was you who tried his best to obstruct him. I never thought that after the defeat, it would still be you at the end of the road!"
"Hey! It's time and destiny!"
Zhang Lu let out a very helpless sigh, and he could only say that he was very impressed by this ending!
After the murder of Liu Yan, it was Wu Yi who obstructed him in every possible way, which made Zhang Lu trapped in Mianzhu and unable to escape.
Now it's Wu Yi again, coming to end everything for him!
"Zhang Lu, Mr. Zhou Mu once said that if you do evil by Heaven, you can still violate it, but if you do evil by yourself, you will not be able to survive! You claim to be a Celestial Master of the Celestial Master's Way, don't you understand this truth?"
After hearing these words, Zhang Lu was stunned for a moment, and his eyes became confused.
"Is this what Liu Zhang said about me?"
Liu Zhang's words were like a bolt from the blue, making Zhang Luru suddenly realize what he said!
Zhang Lu couldn't help but recall everything he had done in the past few years.
He sacrificed his widowed mother to Liu Yan, sought power, colluded with Liu Hao, fought against the imperial court, assassinated Liu Yan, and controlled the state pastoral office...
Everything can be said to be self-inflicted!
Only today did Zhang Lu realize that he was becoming more and more greedy and his desires were getting bigger and bigger, and he had already strayed far away from the original intention of Tianshi Dao.
"I thought Zhang Lu had practiced Taoism since he was a child, but I didn't expect that I couldn't see it as clearly as Liu Zhang's child. It's really sad, pitiful, and ridiculous!"
"I, Zhang Lu, am ashamed of my ancestors, ashamed of the Heavenly Master, and ashamed of the people of Yizhou!"
Whoosh!
After Zhang Lu looked up to the sky and repented, he directly took out the sword from his waist and placed it across his neck.
"Wu Yi, tell Liu Zhang that I, Zhang Lu, lost, and I am convinced that I lost!"
If it were just a defeat on the battlefield, Zhang Lu would only be able to succumb to force and would never be convinced.
It was precisely this sentence, "You will not survive if you do it yourself" that made Zhang Lu completely sober.
Zhang Lu did not lose to Liu Zhang's cunning tactics, but to the greed deep in his heart!
If he could discover it early and regain the original intention of Tianshi Dao, maybe there would be another ending...
It's a pity that everything is no if, the ending is that Zhang Lu will be completely destroyed!
"Zhang Lu, I didn't expect you to be a coward! It's easy to seek death, just wave your sword lightly! But have you ever thought about what will happen to the hundreds of Zhang family members if you die? The lineage of Zhang Liang, the remaining marquis, will be cut off.
!”
Wu Yi did not panic because Zhang Lu wanted to wipe his neck. Instead, he explained to him the consequences of Zhang Lu's suicide.
Liu Zhang hated Zhang Lu so much that if he could be captured alive, Wu Yi would definitely try his best to capture him alive.
"Yes, I, Zhang Lu, am a descendant of Liu Hou Zhang Zifang. I never expected that I would end up in this situation!"
Zhang Lu didn't just want to die, he was desperate.
Can being captured avoid death penalty? Absolutely not.
Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu had a vengeance for killing their father and mother, so they were absolutely incompatible with each other!
What would happen to Zhang Lu if he fell into Liu Zhang's hands? He could imagine it with his toes!
Rather than being tortured and humiliated by Liu Zhang, Zhang Lu might as well wipe his neck directly. This would be the end of the world. It was pleasant and simple!
"Zhang Lu, your ancestor Zhang Liang, the marquis, assisted the great ancestor to create the Han Dynasty for four hundred years, and your grandfather Zhang Daoling founded the Tao of Heavenly Masters. Which one of them is not a famous figure? Did they ever imagine that their descendant Zhang Lu would not dare to face it?
My enemies chose to commit suicide, and they will also implicate more than a hundred people in the Zhang family! Do you think they know what they are doing, will they be pissed off by you?"
