Chapter 125: Traitor

"Boss! We're just chewing on two tongues with broken mouths! Don't be like us! "Lin Sheng couldn't hear who this voice belonged to! Suddenly bluffed, a cold sweat broke out all over his body, and he quickly turned around and cried with a sad face, and apologized.

The person who came was their upper peak, the centurion of this team of night watchmen, and it was also the group of people that Xie Xiaoman rescued from Zhao Jun that day.

"Lao Lin, you eat all over the world with one mouth! A mouth full of tongues can't pull out an honest word! The centurion kicked Lin Sheng's calf and scolded, "It's all for Lao Tzu to be an honest gatekeeper!" If you add another block to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will directly chop you into minced meat, but you can also give your brothers more meat! ā€

Lin Sheng and the others hurriedly nodded in agreement, and one by one they straightened their waists so that they almost folded over.

The centurion stared at him for a moment, then he felt a little satisfied, and turned to leave.

"Boss, boss......" Lin Sheng couldn't help it, but he still half-turned around and stopped the centurion.

"What for!" The centurion frowned, his face furious, and the corners of his mouth were drawn back to a pug.

Lin Sheng laughed with him, and slapped his hands twice: "Boss, I just have a few words I want to ask." Hey! ā€

"If there's a fart, let the fuck go! Damn it! It's better than the yellow flower girl who enters the cave room! You're not in a hurry, I'm still in a hurry to pee! Say it! The centurion cursed angrily.

Lin Sheng had long been in the habit of being scolded, and at this time he smiled: "It's not a serious matter." I just want to ask Counselor Xie who saved us, where did he go? Boss, you have a wide range of doors. Those who see and hear must know a lot more than those of us who are smaller! Tell us about it! Let's also let the big stone in our hearts go! ā€

"Yes, Boss! Tell us about it! The brothers actually want to know in private, and there is nowhere to ask! The robe next to him also came over curiously.

The centurion glanced at them. There was something peculiar about the expression.

"How?" Seeing this, Lin Sheng's face also changed, "It can't really be a rebellion, right?" ā€

The centurion's brow furrowed so deep that he could almost hold a thin brush: "Where did you hear that?" ā€

Lin Sheng restrained his previous joking demeanor and said seriously: "Listen to what Wu Lao Er in the camp said when you eat. But I don't believe it! Counselor Xie confronted Zhao Jun and saved our lives, and went to Zhao Jun in a blink of an eye? How is this possible? It's impossible for the people of their Zhao Kingdom to accept it! ā€

"Yes! Zhao Jun is not stupid! Robe Ze said.

The centurion was silent.

The same silent wind blew the knife at his waist lightly. The hair kept hitting the face, bringing a slight pain.

Lin Sheng and his brother looked at him without blinking, waiting for the answer he would say.

"Later." The centurion wiped his snot, "Don't say anything 'Counselor Xie'!" Just as if there is no such person in our army! ā€

"How is this possible!" Lin Sheng was furious, his eyebrows almost raised to the sky, "Boss! Knowing the grace of the picture to repay these four words. Or did you teach me! Fuck it! Counselor Xie desperately rescued a hundred of our brothers. Now that we can't repay the favor, forget it, how can we be without this person! ā€

"You fucking know a piece of shit!" The centurion punched Lin Sheng in the chest, pushing Lin Sheng back half a step, "the boss said no, no!" You little soldier, when is it your turn to interject! ā€

Lin Sheng felt the centurion's vigorous anger, and strangely, that anger was not directed at Lin Sheng himself, but was restrained. It's as if it's burning itself.

But Lin Sheng's lips were still pale and trembling slightly. I don't know if it's because of the cold, or because of anger and shock.

"That'...... To put it this way," Lin Sheng struggled to calm his trembling voice, "Counselor Xie really, has he rebelled?" ā€

The centurion fell silent, and suddenly wanted to take a hard puff of the tobacco of his hometown.

"I didn't say it, but faintly, it did mean that." The centurion said sullenly.

Although it was only a few simple words, the centurion felt uncomfortable in his heart, so he raised his hand and slammed it twice on his chest.

"What the is this called...... Lin Sheng muttered lowly, his body shook slightly, and he looked a little weak.

The centurion did not speak, nor looked at the two of them any more.

Taking advantage of the cold of the north wind, he wiped his face with his rough hands, turned and walked towards the camp. His riding boots crunched against the frosty ground.

"Boss! I—I'll just ask one more question! Just one sentence! Lin Sheng gritted his teeth and called the centurion, "Do you believe it?" ā€

He didn't say what he believed, but everyone knew it.

The centurion's body paused visibly, but he did not stop, did not turn back, did not make any sound, but continued on his way as if he had not heard.

Lin Sheng looked at his back, and smashed his fist into the air unconvinced, almost breaking the spear in his hand.

……

……

With a fire in his chest, the centurion walked quickly to the door of the battalion commander's tent. He almost wanted to rush in like that, but reason caused him to stop ten paces away and begin to wander incessantly.

Huo Qi was in the tent, and he could see the figure of the bonfire outside, swaying in front of him over and over again, and he could see that his head was almost big.

"Get in!" Huo Qi poked his head out of the tent and shouted angrily at the centurion.

"Your Excellency!" The centurion hurriedly rolled in, his face a little black and ugly.

"What the are you doing out there! Back and forth like a buffalo! Huo Qi scolded.

The centurion scratched his head in embarrassment and explained his intentions: "My lord, I took a turn outside and watched our vigil. ā€

"Huh?" Huo Qi didn't bother to pay attention to him, and continued to look through the newspapers and official documents at hand.

"Counselor Xie's matter, the brothers can't figure it out! I don't figure it out either! "The centurion gritted his teeth, and he didn't vomit unpleasantly!

Huo Qi looked up and glanced at him.

"Anyway. I don't even believe that Counselor Xie will defect! The centurion almost roared as he spoke.

Huo Qi looked at the oil lamp flame in front of him that shook abruptly because of the sudden increase in airflow, and looked at him expressionlessly.

"Who said she defected?" Huo Qi only raised his eyelids to look at him. Don't even bother to look up.

"Great, everybody says that......" The centurion was a little confused by the question.

"Who are you?"

"This ......"

"A man who saved your life, and you used such words to frame you?"

"I'm not ......"

"Listening to the wind is the rain, this is your judgment? If you, a centurion, are so unbearable on the battlefield, how will you bear the lives of your ninety-nine brothers? Well? ā€

"But ......"

"Lord Xie is your superior, but even if you leave for a few days. Do you still need to report to you and me about your whereabouts? ā€

"Of course not!"

"In that case, why do you have to conclude that Master Xie is a mutiny? Such a felony. You inexplicably put on your benefactor's head? It's just a trumped-up charge of unauthorized security, and you are shouting so loudly in my tent, are you afraid that this kind of false accusation will not be true! ā€

"It's not! Definitely not! ā€

"Then get out of here! Do what you have to do! Unless there's a matter of life and death, tonight. Don't let me see you again! ā€

Huo was furious. Casually smash the inkstone at hand at the centurion.

The centurion avoided it in a panic, caught it with both hands, and put it back on Huo Qi's cases in horror and respectfully, and he couldn't care about the ink sprinkled on half of the inkstone on his body.

Secretly wiping the sweat from his forehead, the centurion exited Huo Qi's tent and exhaled.

He looked up at the moon, which was still there, though it was a little dim behind the clouds. It has never disappeared. So he smiled and shook his head. Relax.

Yes, how could such a person defect?

……

……

Lin Sheng thought about what the centurion said before, and recalled the day he was rescued, the whole person's mood changed from life to death, and from death to life, and his mood was like a water weed in the estuary, and he didn't know how to calm down.

Xie Xiaoman betrayed this kind of thing, he absolutely did not believe it.

But there are such rumors in the army, and people say that they have noses and eyes, which almost makes people have to believe it.

I heard that at first, this rumor spread from the mouth of General Huan's guards. It is said that he heard some words about General Huan and Counselor Xie breaking off their righteousness, which sounded too ruthless and made people think of heavyweight things.

Later, the matter spread more and more, and the content and tricks began to increase, but the mainstream inevitably was "mutiny" and "leaking military information" and the like.

And a few days later, except for everyone's private chat, Counselor Xie seemed to have never appeared in the Western Army, and this name no longer appeared in the above meetings and discourses.

As for most of the soldiers of the Western Army, for them, Xie Xiaoman was originally an existence very far away from them.

As a woman who was carried to the barracks by General Huan, this name was originally nailed to the pillar of shame, and now adding some gossip that is more or less, more or less, will not cause any uneasy emotions in their hearts.

But the people in Huo Qi's camp went differently, especially the hundred-person team that Lin Sheng was in. For them, Xie Xiaoman is a serious life-saving benefactor.

Listening to his life-saving benefactor being despised and being said to be a girl in the building, a traitor or something like that, any bloody man is almost about to be blown up.

What's even more annoying is that there is no solution to these things except to be angry!

During the day today, Lin Sheng once had a fight with others because of this incident, but the fight was very light, and as soon as he passed with a fist, he was pulled away by his comrades.

However, this matter is like a thorn in the heart, deeply pierced there, and people can't ignore it at all.

Lin Sheng is looking forward to an opportunity...... Looking forward to one, proving that Counselor Xie is not a traitor! (To be continued......)
