Chapter 16: Marry Me
Woo-la-la-la-
The long sword slashed down, and it was not Xu Sheng's head that fell to the ground, but the rope that bound him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Hua Mulan's face changed, Fan Xu also stopped chewing, and everyone in the tent looked at the potter in surprise, not understanding why their lord didn't kill the pirate, and even released him from the tie.
Xu Sheng, who thought he was going to die, also opened his eyes, and looked at the potter in surprise with a blank expression.
"The world is in turmoil, it is the time when my generation has made meritorious contributions, and you Xu Sheng are also considered a man, so you died for the Mi family, is it worth it?" The potter asked with a solemn expression.
Xu Sheng's figure trembled slightly, stunned for a moment, Fang frowned and said, "Potter, what do you want?" β
"It's easy to kill you, I just want to ask, do you know why the Mi family hired you to kill me." The potter threw the sword back to Mulan and sat back down.
Xu Sheng rubbed his wrist and snorted coldly: "I, Xu Sheng, only care about killing people, so much." β
The potter smiled and said lightly: "I don't know, then I'll tell you." When my father was there, the Mi family in order to marry my Tao family, offered to marry my Tao family, and now my father has just passed away, the Mi family in order to marry the new master Liu Bei, actually want to be treacherous, want to tear up this marriage, my pottery merchant is unwilling to be humiliated, categorically refused, the Mi family is annoyed and angry, so I want to hire you, a pirate, not hesitate to harm the people of Haixi City, but also to get rid of me. β
The potter's words were like thunder, full of indignation, and he explained the cause and effect.
The hostility on Xu Sheng's face became lighter and lighter, and a trace of shock quietly flashed in his originally generous eyes.
Obviously, Xu Sheng simply thought that Mi Fang wanted to kill him because he was insulted by the potter, but he didn't expect that the real reason was because the potter refused to tear up the marriage contract.
"I have long heard that you Xu Sheng is a chivalrous man, and going to sea to be a thief is just a last resort, in order to feed your brothers, I want to ask, you came to kill me for the treacherous Mi family, can you be worthy of your chivalrous heart?" The potter's voice intensified.
Xu Sheng was silent, his face darkened, and he faintly revealed a little shame.
His expression was all expected by the potter, because the potter had inquired about Xu Sheng's life in detail before, and he knew his temperament clearly, otherwise he would not have the heart to surrender.
Seeing that Xu Sheng had been shaken, the potter said: "When my father was here, I said that you Xu Sheng is a general, and if you have the opportunity in the future, you can use it." Although my father is deceased, I dare not forget his words, Xu Sheng, now I will recruit you, let you be my right-hand man, help me recapture Xuzhou, and become a great cause in this troubled era, are you willing. β
After some foreshadowing, the potter finally threw out an olive branch, as for what "the ancestor once said", it was naturally made up by him, if Tao Qian really had the ability to know people, he would not be bullied by Cao Cao like that.
Xu Sheng raised his head and looked at the potter in surprise, as if he couldn't believe that the potter not only killed him, but also wanted to recruit him.
This bearing, the bold words that want to achieve great things, deeply shocked Xu Sheng, so that he couldn't believe that the young man in front of him would be the one who has been rumored in the mouth of Xuzhou, the incompetent and mediocre eldest son of the Tao family.
His thoughts flew and his eyes changed, and Xu Sheng fell into a fierce ideological struggle.
The pottery merchant was very aware of the entanglement in his heart, and the heroic soul that summoned the soul still had its own thoughts and personalities, not to mention the real flesh and blood like Xu Sheng.
"Submit to me, we are brothers who fight side by side, if we don't surrender, we will die, and if we are men, we will give a happy word." The potter urged.
Xu Sheng's body shook violently, as if the potter's drink shattered his remaining hesitation, and when he raised his head again, there was only determination in his eyes.
Taking a deep breath, Xu Sheng arched his hand and said: "I, Xu Sheng, am a pirate, thanks to the son who looks up to me, I am willing to submit to the lord, and from now on I will go to the soup for the lord, and I will not give up." β
As he spoke, Xu Sheng knelt down on one knee and performed the courtesy of a monarch and a minister.
It worked!
The potter was in ecstasy, and hurriedly got up to help Xu Sheng up, laughing and said: "Okay, good, with you Xu Sheng as my right-hand man, why worry about my great cause, from now on, let's fight side by side and fight a piece of the world." β
Xu Sheng was excited, infected by the pride of the potter, and couldn't help laughing.
The left and right Hua Mulan and other former subordinate generals were all dumbfounded, and no one dared to believe that their own lord had said that this pirate who was suitable and generous to death was willing to surrender in a few words.
"Tick...... The system scanned Fan Hao and Hua Mulan to admire the host, and their loyalty increased......"
Enjoying the prompt sound in his mind again, the potter was happy again, but he didn't expect that he had recruited Xu Sheng, and he had unexpectedly increased the loyalty of the two heroic generals, which was really killing two birds with one stone.
When he was excited in his heart, Xu Sheng suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "Most of the brothers of the last general have fled to the sea, if the lord can trust the last general, please go to the sea with the last general, and call these brothers to return together, which can add hundreds of elite soldiers to the lord." And that Mi Fang also happened to be on the boat, and the last general happened to dedicate that to the lord, which was regarded as the last general's submission gift. β
Xu Sheng's request was obviously a test of the potter's trust in him, and hundreds of elite soldiers were like charcoal in the snow for the potters who were short of soldiers, so how could they not accept it.
Moreover, there is also Mi Fang, the mastermind behind the scenes, so many harvests that the potter can't refuse.
"System Elf, scan Xu Sheng's current loyalty." The potter gave an order with his mind, he was not so stupid, in case Xu Sheng was a fake surrender, he would follow him to the sea, wouldn't he give his own life.
In these days, the heart of guarding against people is indispensable.
"Tick...... The system scanned that Xu Sheng's loyalty is now 10. β
Loyalty 10, which is quite high, as long as it is not negative, there is no risk of mutiny, which means that there is no danger for the potter to follow him to the sea.
Now the potter has a bottom in his heart, and said happily: "Then I will go with you." β
The voice fell, and the prompt immediately came out in his mind: "Tick...... The system scanned that Xu Sheng had a respect for the host, and his loyalty rose to 15. β
Sure enough, Xu Sheng felt the trust of the potter, and his heart was happy, and his loyalty immediately rose.
The potter was excited again, so he ordered Fan Hao to guard the camp, he only took Hua Mulan and a few personal soldiers, and followed Xu Shengtong to the trestle.
Coming to the beach, Xu Sheng boarded the boat first.
Just as the potter was about to get on the boat, Hua Mulan grabbed him and reminded in a low voice: "Lord, whether this Xu Sheng is really descending or false, it is not easy to judge now, the lord followed him to the sea so rashly, what if there is a mistake." β
Hua Mulan didn't know the truth and reality, so she naturally took precautions against Xu Sheng.
The potter didn't want to say it clearly, so he had to smile and say: "Don't worry, I still have the ability to know people, so let's do it, if you don't worry about Mulan, you can stay on the shore." β
"How's that going to work!" Hua Mulan raised her eyebrows and said resolutely: "How can I let the lord be in danger alone, even if this trip is the tiger's den in Longtan, I will accompany the lord to go together." β
Hua Mulan's words moved the potter's heart, and he said happily: "It's enough to have Mulan, your words, let's live and die together." β
As he spoke, the potter took Mulan's hand and led her to board the boat.
If the potter "touched" Mulan's body like this in normal times, she would definitely be annoyed, but at this special time, she was not even annoyed, but her heart was slightly hot, and she let the potter hold her hand.
The two got on the boat, Xu Sheng commanded the sailors to paddle, and the potter and Mulan stood side by side on the bow of the boat.
The warship sailed away from the trestle and headed for the large ship anchored at sea hundreds of paces away, where hundreds of pirates had escaped and boarded, and the group of thieves was leaderless and at a loss.
"Mulan, you and I are going to be unpredictable, if we can come back alive, can you promise Gongzi and me one thing?" The potter's eyes looked at the sea, and his tone suddenly became solemn.
"What does the lord want me to promise?" Mulan looked at him curiously.
The potter coughed a few times and said seriously: "Actually, this matter is very simple, if we can return safely, you will agree to marry me, what do you think?" β
As soon as these words came out, Hua Mulan was stunned at first, and then Hua Rong was dizzy, her ears were hot, and she suddenly became ashamed, and said in a low voice: "Lord, it's all this time, you still make fun of me, there is a difference between respect and inferiority, how can I marry you." β
When Mulan responded, the potter sweated in his palms, fearing that he would annoy her and make her loyalty decrease.
However, looking at her so ashamed, although her expression was a little resentful, there was not much resentment in her tone, obviously after the potter's charm value increased, she was not easy to be provoked, and her loyalty was not easy to decline.
The potter secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and decided to strike while the iron was hot, so he said with a straight face: "Mulan, you saved Gongzi and me, and now you still swear to follow you to the death, so I am more noble than any woman in my eyes, I am serious, and I don't laugh at anything." β
Although the main purpose of marrying Mulan is to make her loyalty permanently break 100 through marriage, but the relationship between these days has indeed made the potter have a good impression of her.
Hua Mulan's delicate body trembled when she heard this, her face was red and her ears were red, and her heartbeat also accelerated, and the proud twin peaks, due to the accelerated breathing, became more undulating and turbulent, and under the moonlight, it actually added a bit of thrilling beauty, and the potter's heart was itchy.
Her appearance was obviously moved by the potter, but her strong temperament made it difficult for her to speak, so she could only bite her lips lightly and refused to speak.
"Mulan, I'll count three, if you don't refuse, then it's okay." The potter smiled.
Mulan remained silent.
The potter began to count: "Three...... Two...... One. β
The word "one" is out, Mulan did not refuse, and not refusing is naturally acquiescence.
The potter felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, grabbed Mulan's slender waist, and pulled her into his arms.
"Hmm......" Hua Mulan let out a low pant in her nose, but she didn't resist, and leaned towards him, and the pair of plump snow peaks pressed the potter's chest.
Comfortable......
"Since Mulan you agreed, it is my fiancΓ©e, come, let your future husband kiss one." The potter laughed evilly, and his mouth went up to her lips.
