~8 min read 1,534 words

"Even if I, Zhou, starve to death today, or am beaten to death by you, I will not eat a single bite of your food because of surrender!"

Zhou Cang’s expression was very firm, looking like a man of iron bones.

"Uh, is that so?"

"Really not eating?"

Su Li couldn't help but hold back his laughter; this guy Zhou Cang really had the shadow of a certain philosopher.

"I said I won't eat, so I won't eat."

Zhou Cang turned his head away directly.

Since that was the case, Su Li had no choice but to shake his head slightly and said: "I didn't expect Brother Zhou to be so iron-willed!"

"Fine! Originally, I was prepared to say that even if Brother Zhou didn't surrender, I would give this piece of roasted meat to you, Brother Zhou, because you have such integrity."

"Unfortunately, Brother Zhou has said it to this point, if I give it to you to eat, it would be a bit unrighteous."

Speaking of this, Su Li deliberately sighed and said: "It seems I can only eliminate this big piece of roasted meat that I specially prepared for you, Brother Zhou, myself!"

"What did you say?"

Zhou Cang was immediately dumbfounded, staring with bell-sized eyes at Su Li: "Even if I, Zhou, don't surrender, you would still give me roasted meat to eat?"

"Of course!"

"As a town lord, how could I be a person who abuses prisoners?"

Su Li said righteously: "To tell you the truth, this piece of roasted meat was originally prepared for you, Brother Zhou."

"Now you won't eat it."

"In order not to waste food, I have to eliminate it."

Saying that, Su Li pretended to eat heartily, preparing to take a bite.

"Gurgle..."

However, at this time, Zhou Cang couldn't resist the temptation and suddenly swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Who said I, Zhou, won't eat? As long as I don't surrender, I will eat!"

The words were very direct, as if he was afraid that Su Li would eat the roasted meat.

"Then please enjoy, Brother Zhou."

Su Li didn't tease Zhou Cang anymore and hurriedly handed the roasted meat over.

Smelling the fragrance of the roasted meat, Zhou Cang couldn't care about anything else and hurriedly took a big bite.

Completely forgetting the look of iron bones he had just spoken with!

Even if I, Zhou, starve to death today, or am beaten to death by you, I will not eat a single bite of your food because of surrender!

Now only four words remained.

Emma, so delicious!

Please subscribe, please send flowers, please rate!!!

After a meal of roasted meat, although it didn't make Zhou Cang surrender yet.

But Su Li found that Zhou Cang’s attitude toward him seemed to have improved.

They could chat casually along the way, but the price of every chat was a meal of roasted meat.

But that was also fine.

As long as Zhou Cang didn't have a dark face, there was still a high chance of persuading him to surrender.

By the time they returned to Baiyun Town, it was already two days later.

In this process, Zhou Cang’s impression of Su Li was not bad.

The main thing was that Zhou Cang seemed to hate people from the imperial court, but knowing that Su Li was an alien lord, although he was in the same camp as the Han army, he was not considered an official person, so his attitude was better.

Taking this opportunity, Su Li tried to persuade him to surrender.

Although Zhou Cang didn't agree directly, he had already begun to hesitate.

Following this degree, as long as he stayed for a while longer, Zhou Cang would naturally surrender.

Of course!

Even if Zhou Cang’s attitude was not so firm, after Su Li returned to Baiyun Town, he still locked Zhou Cang into the Martial Prison for the first time.

Let him pair up with Guan Hai.

It is worth mentioning.

As soon as the two met, they stared at each other.

"Hehe! Old Guan, I haven't seen you for a while, so it turns out you were caught!"

As if he had some disagreement with Guan Hai, Zhou Cang came up and mocked him with a "hehe".

"Cut! Aren't you the same?"

Guan Hai retorted angrily.

"I... I..."

Zhou Cang’s face froze, and he remembered that his own situation was also a prisoner, but Su Li had been calling him brother for the past two days, which made him a bit carried away.

"I what I, aren't you also his defeated general."

Guan Hai seemed to see through Zhou Cang’s guilty conscience and pointed at Su Li with a "hehe".

Su Li touched his nose; these two looked like a pair of happy enemies.

However, at this moment, Zhou Cang suddenly straightened his back, looked at Guan Hai, and said proudly: "Who said I, Zhou, was caught? It was this Lord Su of Baiyun Town who saw that I was very powerful and had outstanding martial arts, and specially begged me to come over."

"Yes! That’s right, he specially begged me to come over, I wasn't caught!"

To increase credibility, Zhou Cang nodded to himself.

Little did he know that a double affirmation is a negation; this sounded very fake.

Even Guan Hai, whose intelligence attribute was not very high, could see that Zhou Cang was lying and sneered: "Cut, you still have outstanding martial arts, you are just a turtle shell, a bit more resistant to beating, and he needs to specially beg you to come over? You’ve thought too much."

It could be seen that Guan Hai and Zhou Cang were indeed old acquaintances, knowing well that Zhou Cang’s personal stunt was to greatly improve his own defense, that is, to be resistant to beating.

"You..."

Zhou Cang was choked and speechless, unable to refute at all, because this was not the truth, how could he refute it.

There was no help for it, so Zhou Cang could only focus his gaze on Su Li and said pretentiously: "If you don't believe me, ask him if he specially begged me to join him."

Hearing this, Su Li’s eyes brightened instantly, and he suddenly realized something, feeling that he should cooperate with Zhou Cang’s performance, and said: "That’s right, Brother Zhou has outstanding martial arts, like the Overlord reborn, capable of lifting a tripod, the only one I have seen in my life."

"For this reason, I specially begged him three times and invited him five times, only then did I invite Brother Zhou to join my Baiyun Town and guard the peace of my Baiyun Town."

Guan Hai: ...?

Zhou Cang: ...?

Listen, is this human language?

Still like the Overlord reborn, capable of lifting a tripod?

He praised Zhou Cang until even he blushed.

This Lord Su of Baiyun Town is really good at flattering people.

However, although Guan Hai didn't believe it, there was no help for it; the two sang in harmony and really bluffed him, his brows furrowed, looking at Zhou Cang, staring coldly: "Zhou Cang, I always thought you were a loyal person, but I didn't expect you to be a person who betrays his master, actually betraying the Great Virtuous Teacher and joining this person’s command?"

Zhou Cang was speechless again; what he just said was just a brain cramp, wanting to suppress Zhou Cang, not really wanting to betray the enemy.

But now the words spoken were like spilled water, which could not be taken back.

Unless he admitted he was lying, he could only bite the bullet and continue.

But once admitted, wouldn't he be scolded by Guan Hai all the time in the future?

This was something Zhou Cang could never accept.

However, at this moment.

Su Li saw Zhou Cang’s embarrassment and immediately stood up and said: "Brother Guan, this is wrong. Brother Zhou defecting to my command is precisely for the sake of righteousness!"

"In my opinion, your so-called Great Virtuous Teacher is just a demonic priest who uses the name of an uprising to harm the people!"

Guan Hai still respected Zhang Jiao very much, and seeing Su Li’s tone was contemptuous and looked down on Zhang Jiao, he was furious: "Now that the Son of Heaven is dim-witted and the imperial court is corrupt, the Great Virtuous Teacher leads us Yellow Turbans to follow the mandate of heaven and the wishes of the people to rise up, how can he be a demonic priest who harms the people?!!"

"Have you really followed the wishes of the people?"

Su Li grinned, "In my opinion, you Yellow Turbans are clearly using the name of an uprising to rob houses and loot everywhere, just to satisfy your own selfish desires!"

"Or Brother Guan, do you not know that since your uprising until now, you have been grabbing money, grabbing food, and attacking villages everywhere, causing how many families to be broken and people to die? How many people have been poisoned by you?"

"In addition, is your Great Virtuous Teacher really worth believing in?"

"If he could save the common people, why would these things still happen?"
