The night was quiet, the breeze was gentle, and the muttering of the patrolling soldiers could be heard in the distance:

"Our Chen Du is only seventeen years old, and he is already a five-grade combat power."

"Really? My God, this life is fine. ”

"Hey——, it's all fate. Looking at the family's fine skin and tender meat, I know that he is from a large family. Only wealthy families are willing to spend money on their children's cultivation. Do you know that before the age of sixteen, people can't cultivate, otherwise they will lose their vitality. His skills were all bought from the rivers and lakes at a high price. ”

"How to buy it?"

"The master uses his own qi to run in the child's body and drive the child's skill to improve. Such a person is also at least the combat power of the seventh grade. Seven-grade combat power, where to mix is not five people and six. Be willing to deign to give a child the power of catalysis. You say, how much does it cost? ”

"Oh, I see. That must cost a lot of money. ”

These people didn't know that Chen Mu had surpassed the combat power of the sixth grade, and of course Chen Mu would not take the initiative to tell them.

As long as Chen Mu said it, others knew that he had fought with Tang Hong, and Tang Hong must have lost.

If you damage the reputation of the chief, you must not say it.

Not against Tang Hong, but against the word "chief".

Life is like this, sometimes a small carelessness may ruin the future. The more advanced a person is, the more he tends to walk on thin ice, and it seems that he is not very bold, but in fact, he is more courageous than anyone else when he really wants to start. Because they have calculated everything clearly, and after making up their minds, they make it impossible for ordinary people to understand, so they feel that they are bold.

People who stand on high places often think not about moral right and wrong, but about the gain or loss of interests. There are many aspects of interest, but the most important are power, money, and reputation. And beauty is just an accessory to money and power. Compared to power and money, fame is a manifestation of cultivation. Only those who cherish feathers care about reputation, and even take it very seriously. Although there are few people who would rather die than give in, it is not none.

On the contrary, some people do not care about their reputation, and even seek money, power and other benefits by damaging their reputation. There are many more people like that kind of people than those who would rather die than give in, and in the era before Chen Mu crossed over, they were even more numerous. For example, all kinds of hype, all kinds of kneeling and begging for rewards.

Where do they come from?

Many of the people who make a lot of money are clowns who jump off the beam, and those who work hard complain a little, but it becomes an annoying hypocrisy.

The world is like this, and young people often watch it, and the backbone of the Chinese people will be gone. Puff worried.

But this also shows that money and power are the core of interests. And honor is a luxury for people of conscience and a tool for profit for people without conscience.

The biggest problem that Chen Mu has to face now is "the power to survive".

Every step he takes, either looking timid or bold, is nothing more than wanting to get out of danger as soon as possible.

Spending time with the enemy all day and all night like this is the best choice in desperation, after all, he is not the main general.

"It's late at night, the wind is quiet, and the voice is far away."

Zhang was lying on the wooden plank in the watchtower, and when he heard what the soldiers said, he said with a wry smile.

Zhang Cripple doesn't know a few big characters, but he often pops up a sentence or two of quite poetic words, Chen Mu is quite curious: "You know words, but you just say that you don't know." ”

"No, I can't read." Zhang lame hurriedly waved his hand, turned over, and gritted his teeth: "Don't look at my brother, I'm short, but there was no shortage of women around us when we were young, why did they like me, don't they like our poetry?" ”

Chen Mu felt a burst of sourness, and said sarcastically with a smile: "Do you attach great importance to poetry in your hometown?" ”

"Of course." Zhang lame turned his head to look at Chen Mu: "You are from Luoyang, you still don't know the importance of poetry?" I heard that in your Luoyang, if you don't write good poems, you won't be able to marry a beautiful daughter-in-law. ”

Chen Mu smiled and didn't speak.

Zhang lame asked mysteriously: "Hey, how are you composing poems?" ”

Chen Mu shook his head: "No." ”

"Oh, that's the end of it." Chen Cripple didn't believe it, but he still said alarmistly: "There are so many good girls, it won't be your turn." Ha ha. ”

When it comes to this topic, Chen Mu is not very worried, because according to the calculation of time, the Liang Dynasty was before the Song Dynasty, that is to say, the poems of so many great poets of the Song Dynasty have not yet appeared. If you really come across a scene where you need to compose a poem, you may be able to use it. The poems of the three heroes of the Su family are comparable to those of the previous dynasty.

"Report to Chendu! The enemy army is moving! ”

The soldier ran to the door and shouted.

Chen Mu hurriedly got up, strode to the top of the watchtower, held the railing with both hands, and looked into the distance. In the distance, the enemy camp was full of fire, and I could vaguely see the enemy abandon the camp and start running west.

"Hurry up and report to Captain Tang!" Chen Mu shouted.

"Whoa!"

The soldiers ran to report the military situation, but Chen Mu frowned.

Zhang Cripple stood beside Chen Mu and wondered, "Could it be that there is news from Wuwei?" ”

Chen Mu said in a low voice: "I suspect that there is no news from Wuwei's side. ”

"What do you think?" The cripple asked.

Chen Mu waved his hand: "You keep an eye here, I'll go see Tang Hong." ”

"Hmm. Go ahead. The cripple reminded, "Don't rush to conclusions. ”

Chen Mu nodded and walked quickly.

When I came to the entrance of the school hall, I saw many people gathered here to discuss the changes outside the city. It seems that the other cities have also received the news, so that the enemy forces besieging the city on all sides are moving, are they really going to retreat?

Everyone was talking, Tang Hong was shirtless, and shouted while getting dressed: "Come in, come in!" ”

Everyone walked into the school hall quickly, and Tang Hong said with joy on his face: "It seems that the battle on the Wuwei side has been completed, and with my god to guide the army, I will definitely win the Hun Dynasty." Perhaps at this time, the head of the Hungarian Da Dan was hanging on the gate of a certain Shence general. Hahaha! ”

Hearing this, everyone cheered.

Seeing such a scene, Chen Mu felt a trace of worry in his heart, but he also showed some smiles and applauded lightly, thinking that he was celebrating.

Chen Mu was not in a hurry to express his opinion, he wanted to wait and see if anyone else would come out first. If so, whether the person's opinion is in line with his own. If the direction is exactly the same, then you can stop talking. Maybe you can stand up and second. Increase the person's momentum.

Then observe the performance of other people, and finally decide whether to speak or not, and how many words to say.

It is a pity that at this time the room was filled with the joy of victory, and no one even put forward the opposite opinion.

Tang Hong's guard captain Sun Tingyu said: "Tang Xiao, do we want to take the troops out to chase and kill for a while?" ”

Tang Hong hesitated slightly.

Kong Xiaoxian, the captain of the Seventh Regiment, snorted coldly: "Sun Tingyu, you have to be responsible for speaking in the army. On what basis do you say that the enemy must be defeated? Did you get the news from the division headquarters, or did you get the news from the headquarters of the Shence Army? ”

Kong Xiaodong, the deputy captain of the Third Brigade, shook his sleeves and stood up: "I hope everyone stays calm, now the enemy army has indeed made a withdrawal appearance." However, this does not mean that the enemy forces have really withdrawn. Maybe it was a ploy by Arando. Just wait to seduce us out, and then kill us back. ”

Tang Hong's hand kept resting on the arm of the chair, and the index finger of his right hand tapped rhythmically and gently, as if he was calculating something.

Chen Mu thought to himself, at this time, Tang Hong was mainly calculating two aspects.

He was calculating the "true" and "false" of the enemy's retreat, and he needed to think about how to get the most out of himself in both cases.

However, the Kong brothers and Tang Hong were not of the same mind at this time, and what they wanted to do most was to stop Tang Hong from making contributions. And persuading Tang Hong to stay in the city is one of the best ways to not make a contribution, and they have good reasons. In this case, if Tang Hong still insisted on going his own way and rashly sent troops to defeat, then the Kong brothers could still reap some benefits. - In the eyes of their superiors, their brothers are wiser and calmer than Tang Hong.
