Chapter 26: I’d Rather Die Standing Than Be Humiliated

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Extorting a confession through violence was very useful in many cases.

In this world, not everyone was a hero who would rather die than submit. After all, there were only a few people like that.

Cheng Ling’s killing of two people had indeed caused Brother Guan to answer all his questions. Even though he was in great pain, he didn’t dare to be slow.

“Who is your master?”

“Our… our wangye is King Linhai!”

Brother Guan answered while gasping for breath. He forced himself to take a breath and said, “Our Wangye is the king of Linhai, you….. young hero, hero, lift your noble feet. It’s not good to go against our Wangye, isn’t it?”

“How many people did King Linhai bring to the capital?” Cheng Ling asked.

Brother Guan raised his voice, “His Royal Highness has 100000 soldiers! An army of 100000!”

What an army of 100000!

Cheng Ling raised an eyebrow but didn’t comment.

Was there really an army of 100000?

Cheng Ling knew that in the era of cold weapons, the participating side would often make false numbers.

A hundred thousand or a million was just to raise the morale of their side and to intimidate the enemy.

In fact, even a 50000-strong army was already very terrifying and majestic, let alone a 100000-strong army.

Where the army passed, even the people and horses on the road had to feed, so what kind of concept was a hundred thousand people?

This small Lu County, once robbed clean, would not be able to support an army of 100000 for long?

However, Cheng Ling didn’t continue to ask Brother Guan this question. This person was only a low-level soldier, and it was impossible for him to know how many people were in King Linhai’s army.

Cheng Ling felt a little more confident now that he could say that it was an imaginary army of 100000.

“How long has King Linhai left Lu County?” She continued to ask.

“Six days, we’ve just left for six days!”

“How many of you are still in Lu County?”

“This…” Brother Guan paused, and his eyes flickered.

Cheng Ling’s foot on his chest immediately exerted more force, and brother Guan’s Tanzhong point was under heavy pressure. He broke out in cold sweats and hurriedly said, “There are five hundred people, five hundred people!”

He took a deep breath and shouted, “Five hundred people are guarding the south and east gates!”

There were no city gates to the west and north of Lu County, because these two directions were basically surrounded by the winding Mountain Pingming.

“Who’s the commander?” Cheng Ling asked again.

“It’s General Kang. General Kang is secondary consort Kang’s younger brother!”

“How many people are still alive in the city?” Cheng Ling raised her eyebrows and asked.

Brother Guan became hesitant at once as he couldn’t answer this question!

Cheng Ling didn’t ask any more questions. Instead, she suddenly crouched down and attacked like lightning.

After four cracking sounds, Brother Guan screamed, “Boy! You broke your promise and said you would spare my life…”

“You’re still alive.” Cheng Ling said, “I’ll break your limbs and spare your dog life. When have I ever gone back on my word?”

After saying that, she stood up and was about to go check on the two women who had been struck to the ground.

As for this Brother Guan, he will definitely die!

If Cheng Ling didn’t kill him, he wouldn’t have survived even if his limbs were broken and he was thrown into the mountains.

But what Cheng Ling didn’t expect was that the moment she got up and was about to take a step, the woman on the ground in front of her suddenly held her hand and quickly crawled to Brother Guan’s side.

She was as fast as a mad beast, and as soon as she reached Brother Guan, she raised her right hand high.

In her right hand, she was holding a sharp stone!

“Bastard, go to hell!”

The woman screamed as the stone suddenly fell.

Bang! Bang! Bang bang!

Brother Guan struggled to dodge, but all his limbs were broken, and his body was in an extremely weak state. How could he dodge?

The sound of the stone hitting the human body was still ringing out. Finally, when Brother Guan’s breath was completely gone and his entire head seemed to have been smashed into a ball, the woman who was madly hitting him suddenly threw the stone away and knelt down on the spot, crying bitterly.

Cheng Ling stood rooted to the ground, feeling a little helpless for a moment, not knowing how to deal with the situation in front of her.

After crying for a while, the woman suddenly stopped crying and looked up at Cheng Ling. “Thank you for saving me. I was the daughter of the Wang Family of Pingchang. When I traveled to Yunchuan with my younger brother, I was accidentally blocked by the King of Linhai in Lu County.”

Cheng Ling’s eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at her seriously.

Wang Shi’s wife continued, “My brother, Wang Qi Lang, has been taken hostage by King Linhai. It’s very likely that he’s going to use him to threaten my uncle to let go of the red cloud city’s gate!”

She looked at Cheng Ling and said sincerely, “Langjun, please help me pass a message to my big uncle. The disciples of the Wang Family would rather die standing than live a humiliating life. Please be at ease and make your decision, Big Uncle. If my father knows about this in the netherworld, he will only be grateful and not blame!”

As she spoke, her hands trembled and she suddenly touched her hair bun.

Her hair had long been in a mess, and there were no adornments on her bun. There was only a bun on her head that was tightly tied up, but it did not come loose completely under such circumstances.

A moment later, Madam Wang took out an extremely short silver hairpin from the tightly tied hair bag.

She was still kneeling on the ground and handed the hairpin to cheng ling. her eyes were full of hope as she said, “My big uncle, Wang Bei, is now the governor of Yun Chuan County. This is a token, please pass it on. The Wang Family will definitely reward you generously!”

Cheng Ling bent down and didn’t directly take the hairpin. instead, she reached out to hold Madam Wang’s wrist, wanting to help her up.

He sighed and said, “These words, no matter who it is, it’s not as appropriate as the Wangniang personally saying it. Moreover…”

She was just about to ask, “Don’t you want to save your brother?”

Even though… it was probably just words of comfort.

Madam Wang had already said, “Langjun’s eyes are as bright as a torch. You must have already guessed that I have the will to die! I’m pure white, but my body is dirty…”

Before she could finish her words, a stream of blood had already seeped out from the side of her lips.

It turned out that just now, she had taken advantage of the gap in her speech and bit off her own tongue!

Cheng Ling was shocked and reached out her hand. Madam Wang tried her best to hold her hand, but she didn’t let her touch her face. “My… body is already dirty, but my, my heart, must still, be, pure! I can’t… I can’t…”

Her tongue was almost completely bitten off, and even though she managed to speak at the end, her words began to become very vague and sleepy.

At the same time, blood kept flowing out of her mouth.

Cheng Ling felt a shock that seemed to cross space and time. She knew that for some people, dying a quick death was far better than living like a walking corpse.

Could she still save a person who was physically and mentally tortured to the limit and would rather end her own life?

She… was a step too late!

Cheng Ling’s fingers moved, and she took the silver hairpin from madam wang’s hand and held it in her palm.

Wang Shi’s wife’s dull eyes brightened up a little. She raised her head and said in a very thin and fuzzy voice, “Langjun, I’m… Wang Yan. The water ripples are like… like brocade, the words are called xun!”

Cheng Ling squatted in front of her and looked her in the eye. “My name is Cheng Ling, the spirit of the bell and the jade. Your name is very beautiful, I like it very much.” Then, she pulled down her mask in front of Wang Hua.

A smile bloomed on Wang Jie’s withered face. She said, “Good, very good…”

His voice became weaker, his eyes closed, and he no longer had any life.
