Chapter 394

At this time, Yuan Shao, as the alliance leader, still had to recite a long string of alliance oaths.

Like a school principal, he looked all dignified and proper.

"Today there is the traitor Dong, born of barbarians, leading troops to steal, holding troops to wait for change, usurping great power, recklessly deposing the young Emperor, arbitrarily establishing the Xian Emperor, monopolizing the court, and wreaking havoc in the harem. Such tyrannical acts are to be punished by all under heaven."

"We have gathered to form an alliance, waiting to set out together, to save the collapsing state, to kill the traitor and eliminate evil, to restore justice to the world, and to surely restore the court’s order. May the heavens and earth, and the spirits of our ancestors, all be our witnesses!"

This oath was recited quite fluently, clearly having been prepared in advance.

The various warlords were used to it, but the soldiers under their command were moved to tears upon hearing it, and their morale was greatly boosted.

But for Su Li, Yuan Shao’s words were undoubtedly like a principal giving a speech. After the long recitation, he wasn't put to sleep, but he almost swayed while standing in place.

After a while, Yuan Shao finally finished reciting the oath, and Su Li thought it was over, so he could go home to his own mother.

But who would have thought that Yuan Shao would again say passionately: "Gentlemen, today’s alliance is truly a great undertaking. Let us swear an oath with blood!"

"Men, bring the wine vessels!"

Alright!

Upon hearing this, Su Li, who had been drowsy, was instantly jolted awake.

You said you’d hold an oath-taking ceremony, so you held one, but you also want to swear an oath with blood?

Damn it, someone who didn't know better would think you were swearing brotherhood with them. Swearing with blood?

Su Li didn't want to swear with any blood. Since coming to this world, he hadn't seemed to have bled, and he didn't want to lose his "first time" so carelessly.

At this time, standing beside Su Li was the Prefect of Guangling, Zhang Chao, who was brave and heroic.

He looked at the somewhat excited Su Li with kindness, as if he had misunderstood something, and suddenly smiled: "Why, is Prefect Su already impatient to swear an alliance with us with blood? So excited?"

Su Li couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva and really wanted to give Zhang Chao a heavy punch. What the hell "impatient"? Where did he see he was impatient?

However, Su Li still held back and asked slightly: "This damn rule of swearing with blood, can we just do it symbolically?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chao nodded.

Hearing this, Su Li breathed a sigh of relief. He would just do it symbolically later.

However, the next moment.

He heard Zhang Chao continue: "According to the rules, each person only needs to contribute ten taels of blood. It’s not much!"

"Damn, ten taels of blood isn't much? Are you kidding me?"

Su Li was stunned at the time. Even if his elementary school math was bad, he knew ten taels of blood was one jin (half a kilogram).

People in this world really knew how to play.

Just to form an alliance, they wanted to swear with one jin of blood? Was this a rhythm of not wanting to live?

Weren't they afraid that before even fighting the enemy, their own side would be honored by excessive blood loss?

Even if donating blood in the past, it was at most 400cc, right?

In short!

Su Li’s little head was now full of question marks.

But it wasn't up to him to complain. NPC soldiers had long since prepared wine vessels and daggers and presented them to every warlord, including Su Li.

Su Li glanced sideways at Zhang Chao.

The other party didn't even blink, picked up the dagger, and slashed fiercely at his own wrist!

Good heavens, this posture, it was as if it wasn't his own wrist.

Bright red blood flowed down like it was free.

Those who knew it was swearing an alliance with blood knew it; those who didn't would think it was a rhythm of the warlords collectively committing suicide.

Before long, blood was about to overflow from Zhang Chao’s wine vessel.

Was this not more than a jin?

Hmm?

Su Li suddenly had a bold idea. Since this guy’s blood was about to overflow, why didn't he take some?

Anyway, it was all blood, and when they were poured together later, no one would be able to tell.

Thinking of it, he did it. Su Li immediately grabbed a clean piece of white cloth from the side and handed it to Zhang Chao: "I have long heard that General Zhang is a hero of our generation. Seeing you today, your reputation is well-deserved. You didn't even hesitate to slash your own wrist. I imagine killing the enemy must be even more satisfying!"

"However, General Zhang, you should use this white cloth to bandage your wound first, so as not to lose too much blood and affect your combat power!!"

"I’ll hold this wine vessel for you first! We are all brothers, don't be polite!"

After saying this, regardless of whether Zhang Chao agreed or not, Su Li took the initiative to reach out and take the wine vessel filled with blood.

"Hahaha, Prefect Su, you overpraise me. Then I will respectfully obey!"

Seeing Su Li so enthusiastic, the heroic Zhang Chao didn't suspect anything, handed the wine vessel to Su Li, and then took the white cloth, lowering his head to wrap the wound on his wrist.

And during this process.

Lin Tian directly poured some of the fresh blood from Zhang Chao’s wine vessel into his own.

Seeing the amount was a bit small, he even deliberately mixed in some wine from the side.

Although the color was much lighter, it was still red, and there was a faint smell of blood in it.

After doing all this.

Su Li also pretended to dip a piece of white cloth in some blood and tied it to his own wrist.

It looked like he had also slashed his wrist.

"Hey! Prefect Su, your movements are quite nimble. You finished so quickly?"

At this time, Zhang Chao also raised his head, looked at Su Li’s pretentious appearance, and said with some surprise.

"For such a sacred thing as swearing an alliance with blood, how can we warriors be negligent?"

Su Li returned the wine vessel to Zhang Chao righteously.

Zhang Chao was also big-hearted and didn't notice that the fresh blood in his wine vessel had decreased significantly, but his gaze fell on Su Li’s wine vessel, and he suddenly said earnestly: "Prefect Su, your blood color is a bit light! Could it be that you had a deep exchange with those thirty dancers last night?"

"Although the beauty of those thirty dancers is certainly good, too much exchange in one night is not good! You really need to replenish your blood!"
