In a remote corner of Qi Jun camp, there was a special place that was enclosed. It was not a tent, but a cage. The ragged and haggard men were lying or sitting. Many people were covered in wounds and were lying in the cage without moving for a long time.

Tuobayan held a large jar of wine under his arm and wandered back and forth outside the small camp for a while. Finally, he gritted his teeth and walked in.

The cages vary in size, some of which are locked up three or five people, while others are locked up only one person. Tuobayan walked to a small cage in the middle and leaned over to look at a man lying inward with a sad look on his face.

The man's face and body exposed outside were covered with blood scabs, and his hair and beard grew into pieces, tangled together and formed into plates. Seeing Tuobayan, he reached out and pushed away the hair covering his face, revealing his original appearance. It was Tuobayan's former deputy Murong Hai.

Murong Hai turned over and sat up, leaned against the prison building, stared at Tuobayan, and suddenly laughed: "What? The ghost shadow man tortured me so much that he was ecstatic and didn't make me surrender. Now, if you are playing the emotional card? Don't bother!"

Tuobayan sat outside the cage and shook her head, "No, I know your temperament, so I won't do useless work. I just knew you were caught and escorted here, why didn't you run away?"

He poured a cup of wine and handed it to Murong Hai from the gap in the cage.

Murong Hai took the wine and drank it clean in one sip. "I was originally able to escape, but it's a pity that Kuang Laosan and the others were caught. The ghost shadow hung them upside down and tortured them to death. Even though I knew it was a trap, I had to make a breakthrough."

"You always do things without thinking about consequences, but the result is that Kuang Laosan is not rescued, and you also caught it." Tuobayan sighed.

Murong Hai laughed: "I don't have as many colorful things as you do, but I just can't bear to see my brothers suffer. I rushed up, and a slashed Kuang Laosan's head, Kuang Laosan's head rolled in front of me, looking very angry, I suspect he also wanted to roar at me. Maybe he wanted to spit at me, you know that bastard likes to spit on others the most. But I don't regret it, at least I rushed up, Kuang Laosan got a happy time, right? Tuobayan, do you still remember who Kuang Laosan is? It was when we first fought off Maping, the guy who was shot on you and survived for half a year in the bed. Unfortunately, he was never saved this time."

Tuobayan raised the jar of wine, took a big sip on himself, and said in a muffled manner: "Of course I remember him. Haizi, do you hate me?"

Mu Ronghai stared at him, looked for a while, and suddenly smiled and said, "Nothing hateful. You have saved me more than once on the battlefield these years. Just think that you have returned this life to you."

"Haizi, as long as you are willing to do it with me, I can release you now!" Tuobayan said suddenly.

Murong Hai laughed: "You really dare? You are not afraid that I will pretend to agree to you, and then take advantage of your inattention, and then take advantage of your inattention, just like Kuang Laosan was chopped off? Tuobayan, I know you feel guilty, but there is no need to pretend to be fake in front of me. I have nothing to regret. My wife and baby are living a very good life now. The baby can get a county magistrate after turning his head out of the capital. How could I let them be implicated because of me? I have lived happily enough in the past few years, and I don't feel wronged if I die."

Tuobayan raised his head and drank another sip of wine. The reckless man said casually, and he always pointed to the hearts of the people without any concealment. Yes, even if Murong Hai promised to surrender now, would he dare to use him? It was just asking for peace of mind.

"Don't just watch you drink. You come with wine, aren't it just for me to drink?" Murong Hai shouted, "Tell me, I grabbed me and didn't chop my head, what does it mean to bring me here?"

He reached out to grab the wine jar in Tuobayan's hand. With a clang, the iron chain in his hand made his hand half way out and he could no longer reach it. Tuobayan poured a cup of wine and handed it to him.

"The emperor of Qi and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty are going to meet here." He said.

Murong Hai was stunned, "So, I'm probably not going to die? The Emperor of Qi brought us here. Could it be that he wanted to sell us to the Emperor of Ming Dynasty? But we are just poor fighters, worthless."

"I don't know." Tuobayan shook his head.

Murong Hai laughed: "It seems that you are not as proud as me! Tuobayan, I don't understand. You have done a good job, why should you surrender to the people of Qi? In the future, when you regret it, the people of Qi cannot beat the Ming Dynasty."

"Why don't you surrender?" Tuobayan asked back.

"Nonsense, I'm all in the Ming Dynasty and have a good life. If I surrender to Qi, they will suffer." Murong Hai said.

"My children and wife are all in Qi State." Tuobayan said quietly.

"But no one knows who you are?" Murong Hai was stunned for a moment, "I think you are not just for this? Your wife's identity is different from my wife. She comes from a famous family, and even if you are exposed, she may not be in trouble."

Tuobayan was stunned for a while, and finally nodded dejectedly: "You are right, not just because of this. Haizi, why do you say we are born and die? Isn't it just to be the best? But now I have done it in Qi State. I am a general, with tens of thousands of heavy troops in hand and high power. In Qi State, I have already got everything I want, but in Ming State, what am I? A spy, a shameful person."

Murong Hai tilted his head and thought: "You are right, but if Qi is destroyed by the Ming Dynasty in the future, you will have nothing. If you continue to do it well, the Ming Dynasty will win in the future, and you will not get everything you want."

"I'm tired of such a terrifying life and a shameless life. I live like a mouse in the darkness. I live wearing a mask every day, and I'm really tired." Tuobayan whispered: "I don't want to do this anymore. You don't know, Dashuai Guo, my father-in-law, and my wife, they are really good to me. Every time I face them, I feel like I'm torn into two halves. You will never understand the pain in my heart. I don't know what the Ming Dynasty means to me. It's very early.

At that time, I was a little man with nothing. I entered the Eagle's Nest for the sake of life and began to live an incognito. I had seen the biggest official in the Ming Dynasty, a deputy general of the Eagle's Nest, Haizi. I had never even seen Guo Jiuling. The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was a faraway existence for me. Later, my status in the Great Qi Dynasty became higher and higher, but I could receive some of their rewards, but what was the use of this to me? They were strangers to me, but instead were the rulers and ministers of the Qi Kingdom, and were living beings to me."

Murong Hai looked at Tuobayan, "Okay, you don't have to say this to me. I've said it a long time ago. I have nothing to blame you, and you don't have to explain to me."

"I'm not explaining to you, I just need someone to listen to me and talk to you. I have nowhere to say these words." Tuobayan said quietly.

Murong Hai laughed: "You told your betrayal brothers that you are so depressed. This is really strange. Tuobayan, I don't think too much about you, but I still want to tell you that if you choose, the Ming Dynasty will definitely win the final victory. You will be beheaded in the end, and maybe you will really implicate your wife and children."

"Who said the Ming Dynasty will definitely win?" Tuobayan's eyes lit up: "Haizi, you are not standing high enough and not seeing far enough. It is unknown who will win in the battle between Ming and Qi. You said the Ming Dynasty would win, but I think Qi is better. Now that Cao Cao has become the emperor, it is even more different from before."

"The way is different, and we don't plan for each other." Murong Hai flattered his mouth, "When I was in the Hengduan Mountains, you were the chief general and could not leave, but I often ran to the Ming Kingdom. I saw a lot of things you can't see, and in Qi Kingdom, I also saw a lot of things. I don't have much wisdom, but I know the big difference between the two sides, so I firmly believe that the Ming Dynasty will definitely win the final victory. Tuobayan, if I don't die this time, you will become a prisoner of the Ming Dynasty in the future and be taken to the execution ground, I will definitely come to see you off."

Tuobayan nodded: "Okay, with your words, it will be worth our brothers who have been with us for more than ten years. Haizi, who rebels from the Ming Dynasty, I don't feel sorry for those people in the Ming Dynasty. The only ones I feel sorry for are you brothers who have followed me on the battlefield for so long."

Murong Hai's face turned gloomy: "More than 800 brothers, can you tell me how many people have escaped and how many people died? There are only less than two hundred people here, and half of them are still some secret spies."

"This time, nearly 500 people were killed in total, and all those captured alive were here. The remaining ones should have escaped!" said Tuobayan.

Murong Hai lowered his head sadly. Hearing the footsteps of Tuobayan leaving, he suddenly raised his head: "Tuobayan, many brothers here are injured. At least you can get a doctor for them to see you. Wouldn't you sell us? Isn't it more valuable to sell us better?"

Tuobayan paused slightly, nodded, and left with great strides.
