Chapter 405 Those who don't believe my letter will suffer bad luck
I don’t know Zhang Jing, and he naturally doesn’t know me either, but he looks so righteous and he doesn’t seem like a bad guy.
I flattered him: "If you help me retrieve the axe, I will tell you a shocking secret and let you perform a great deed!"
Zhang Jing sneered and said, "If I listen to you, a spy, and try to gain merit, I will probably be the one thrown into jail. Come, arrest him and tie him up for the general to decide."
Immediately, two officers came over, grabbed me, and took me away.
I was so angry that I shouted, "I haven't picked up my axe yet. I'm going to go get it."
Zhang Jing said, "Shut up. If you keep yelling, I'll stuff a stinky sock into your mouth."
Zhang Jing's words successfully scared me. When I thought about stuffing my mouth with smelly socks with athlete's foot, my stomach couldn't help but twitch, so I had to shut my mouth obediently.
I was light and the two people carrying me walked very fast. My feet could not touch the ground and it was useless to push hard. The two people ignored my resistance.
In fact, I could have broken free from these two men if I tried my best, but these officers were either from the Imperial Guards or the Zhao Family Army. They were all family members. We shouldn't fight against each other. This is my principle in life.
I was getting farther and farther away from the artificial lake. If I couldn't get my axe back, and someone really attacked me, I wouldn't even have a weapon to defend myself. It would be too dangerous for me.
I had no choice but to say to Zhang Jing who had been following me: "Brother, who is your boss? Tell me if I know him."
Zhang Jing glared at me and said, "Don't even think about me leaking military secrets."
I flattered him and said, "You are such a brave man! But I tell you the truth, I am not a spy. Even if you send me to His Majesty, he won't do anything to me. You'd better put me down quickly and let me find the axe. Then I will help you to do great deeds."
Zhang Jing sneered and said, "It's no use for you to say these things in front of me. I'll leave everything to the general to decide."
I rolled my eyes and said, "How about this, you send someone to help me pick up the axe, and I'll take you to catch the spy!"
Zhang Jing couldn't help but pause when he heard this. The general said that according to the roster handed over by the rebel leader, there should be 4,658 rebels, but when they counted all the people, there were only more than 4,300, and more than 300 were missing. They have searched every inch of the martial arts academy in the past few days, but there is still no trace of them.
This little thief kept saying that he was taking me to catch a spy and earn merit. Could it be that he really knew where the thief was?
Thinking of this, Zhang Jing waved his hand, and immediately an officer came up to him. He gave a few instructions, and the officer immediately took the order and left.
Judging from Zhang Jing's expression, he should send someone to help me find an axe.
I said happily, "What's the name of this brother? You are so smart and clever. If I have a chance to meet His Majesty in the future, I will definitely speak well of you in front of His Majesty."
Zhang Jing thought I was crazy, rolled his eyes at me and said, "You are about to die, and you still want to see His Majesty. Be a good person in your next life, and maybe you can see His Majesty."
I smiled and said, "Brother, you are wrong. As the saying goes, 'You can't judge a man by his appearance, and you can't measure the depth of the sea.' How do you know that I will never see Your Majesty in this lifetime? How about a bet? Not only can I see Your Majesty at any time, but even your generals have to be respectful to me when they see me."
Zhang Jing sneered and said, "You haven't even fallen asleep yet, and you're already dreaming."
I snorted deliberately and said, "You are too cowardly to bet with me."
Zhang Jing said, "I have been on the march and fighting for more than ten years. I have seen all kinds of people. A kid like you thinks you are smart, but in fact you are ridiculously stupid."
I asked unconvincedly, "What do you mean by ridiculously stupid?"
Zhang Jing said, "You have fallen into my hands. It is useless to talk fast. The Zhao family army has strict military discipline and will not be deceived or instigated by others. So no matter how much you talk, you can't shake me. What do you think you are if not stupid?"
I was carried by someone and felt uncomfortable all over. My armpits were sore and painful. I said aggrievedly, "Can you put me down? It's really uncomfortable to talk to you like this."
Zhang Jing didn't want to let me go at first, but then he thought that I might be a psychopath. What was there to be afraid of a madman?
So I waved my hand and the two men immediately let me down.
I shook my arms and said, "Since we get along well, I wanted to give you this opportunity to make a great contribution, but you didn't believe me. Everyone who knows me knows that those who don't believe me will suffer a great loss. Don't regret it when the time comes."
Seeing that I was always talking nonsense, Zhang Jing said unhappily, "If you have anything to say, save it for the general. I don't want to hear any nonsense. Let's go now."
It seems that he really thinks I am crazy.
After Zhang Jing finished speaking, he pushed me. The snow on the ground was very thick and I almost couldn't stand still. I was about to fall down again. Fortunately, the officer in front of me blocked me and I didn't fall to the ground.
I touched my red nose and said, "If you don't believe it, forget it. Who asked you to believe it?"
As I was speaking, the officer that Zhang Jing had sent out to help me find an axe came running over quickly with my axe in his hand.
The officer handed the axe to Zhang Jing. Zhang Jing took it and looked at it. It was just an ordinary axe, nothing special. I don’t know why I had to get it back.
Since I was a prisoner, Zhang Jing naturally could not give me the weapon, so he returned the axe to the officer and said, "Take it and hand it over to the general later."
"Yes, Lieutenant General Zhang." The officer took the axe and carried it on his shoulder.
I saw that my axe was taken back, and I said happily, "Give me back my axe."
Zhang Jing snorted and said, "Forget about this axe. The general will take care of it. As for you, whether you live or die depends on whether you are willing to confess."
I said angrily, "I've already told you I'm not a spy, why don't you believe me?"
Zhang Jing said slowly, "All bad guys will not admit that they are bad guys at the beginning. They will only confess everything under torture."
I couldn't stand it any longer and said, "You fool, big fool, why don't you believe anything I say?"
This really irritated Zhang Jing, and he yelled angrily, "Who are you calling a fool?"
I shouted, "I'm talking about you, you fool!"
Zhang Jing was almost mad at me, and he stretched out his hand to slap me. His slap was so powerful that if I was hit by him, I would be crippled if not killed!
I quickly squatted down to avoid the slap.
Zhang Jing didn't expect that I could avoid the slap. He got so angry that he swung the gun at me.
I quickly rolled on the ground and actually avoided Zhang Jing's shot.
The tip of Zhang Jing's gun hit the ground with a "bang" and a string of sparks flashed. It was obvious that he was trying his best.
