Volume 3 Pen Knife Spring and Autumn Chapter 372 Giving and Taking
The people I sent to Xicheng said that as soon as they arrived in Xicheng, they were followed by the Cao Gang, which shows that the Cao Gang still attaches great importance to the arrival of strangers in Xicheng, and it also shows that the Cao Gang high-level is too sensitive during this time, so the biggest possibility is that your father is still alive, and the Cao Gang high-level also judged that your father is in Xicheng, so they will monitor and track it with such fanfare. In addition, your father may have his own channel to send out a rescue, and the rescuers will also rush to Xicheng, so the Cao Gang will send gangs to monitor strangers from outside. Cao Yi analyzed Mu Feichen.
"Isn't my father in danger now? No, I'm going to rush over now, I'm going to help my father!" After Mu Feichen finished speaking, he got up and prepared to go back to clean up.
"Wait!" Cao Yi stopped Mu Feichen, who had already gotten up, and said in the latter's puzzled eyes: "You go to Xicheng now, do you know where your father is hiding?" ”
"I don't know, but I should still be able to find it if I went over and looked for it!" Mu Feichen obviously didn't understand Cao Yi's meaning at all, and said excitedly.
"Then you make sure that you yourself will not be found and taken away by Jing Zhe's people before finding your father?" Cao Yi said coldly.
"This ......" Mu Feichen fell silent.
"In case you are caught by Jing Zhe as soon as you arrive in Xicheng, if it turns out that your father is dead, then you, as the only orthodox heir in name of the Cao Gang, will naturally die, but your father is not dead, and the question of whether you die or not is actually not very important, but you can be an important bargaining chip for Jing Zhe to threaten and force your father to come out!" Cao Yi continued to say coldly.
"If Jing Zhe uses your death to force your father to come forward and give up resistance and be captured, do you think your father will continue to hide and wait for the best opportunity for revenge without regard for your life, or will he jump out immediately, just to exchange your life?"
Mu Feichen didn't speak, but from his frowning brows and the sweat dripping from his forehead, he could know that his inner hesitation and pain at the moment, born as a son of man, but he couldn't help his father when his life was in danger, but it could be a burden, and every person with a conscience would feel very uncomfortable in his heart.
Cao Yi stepped forward, patted Mu Feichen's shoulder hard, and comforted: "You just wait patiently here, if my people find your father, they will stay in Yangzhou as soon as possible, at least it is safe here, stay in Qingshan without worrying about no firewood, your father's prestige in the Cao Gang must still be very useful, when the time comes, your father will be safe under the premise of ascending to the heights and exposing Jing Zhe's true face, presumably there are still many people in the Cao Gang who are willing to follow your father." ”
Mu Feichen, who had been keeping his head down and being silent, suddenly raised his head, and looked at Cao Yi and Liu Baiqing with firm eyes: "Young Master Cao, I want to practice with Brother Liu and them every morning......
Cao Yi showed a smile on his face, smiled, and said: "Yes, as long as you can endure hardships, be willing to persevere, and survive it, but I said ugly things ahead, if you choose to practice with them, then in the eyes of Bai Qing in the future, you are not the leader of the Cao Gang, you are his subordinate, if you can't do his request, he won't give you the slightest face, and the punishment is still frequent." ”
"It doesn't matter, I can hold on, I am the only way to reduce my own powerlessness and loss a little, although the practice time is a little late, but it is better than doing nothing, waiting to come, I don't want to face the life and death of our herdsman's family, I am still a useless scholar with no power!"
"Okay, Bai Qing, starting tomorrow, every morning and evening drill, bring Mu Feichen, according to the standards of recruits in the secret camp, don't care about his identity, if you don't meet the requirements, you will be punished!"
"This ......" Liu Baiqing hesitated for a moment, mainly because of Mu Feichen's small arms and legs, which was thinner than the original son, but he knew that in the secret camp, even if it was the standard of recruits, it was still very difficult for a rich boy or a scholar.
"Brother Liu, believe me, I can persevere, when I think that my father doesn't know where he is now, his life is in danger at any time, and I, as a son, can't help anything, this feeling is really uncomfortable, compared to my father's life danger, what is the pain in the exercise, I will definitely survive it!" Mu Feichen said to Liu Baiqing with a determined expression.
Liu Baiqing also seemed to be infected by Mu Feichen's filial piety and faith, and finally agreed: "Okay! Then I won't be soft on you, you prepare yourself, you can rest well tonight, recuperate, start training early tomorrow morning, if you can hold on for ten days and half a month, at least until the future, if you really need to fight, at least you can have more chances to survive! ”
"Okay, then Gongzi Cao, Brother Liu, I'll go back first, take a good rest, and follow Brother Liu and them to train hard tomorrow!" Mu Feichen waved at Cao Yi and Liu Baiqing, and then left.
"Childe, do you really want this Mu Feichen to train with us?" Although Liu Baiqing agreed to Mu Feichen just now, this matter still has to be decided by Gongzi in the end, and it was a bit arrogant for him to agree without authorization just now.
"You mean the way of training and something real?" Cao Yi looked at Liu Baiqing, who nodded.
"It's okay, you only discipline, but don't explain why that's the case, other people already know the principle, among all the people involved in the training, only Mu Feichen doesn't know, as for how much he understands in the end, whether he understands the principle thoroughly depends on his own understanding."
"If he really re-controls the Cao Gang in the future, with the number and scale of the Cao Gang, if you popularize your advanced training methods, I am afraid that the Cao Gang will become a very powerful force in the future." Liu Baiqing said with a little priority and concern.
"Hehe, who knows what will happen in the future, and I don't know if this Cao Gang can be taken back from Jing Zhe, and even if the Cao Gang takes it back, we will hand it over to Mu Feichen, and whether he can hold it in the back is still to be said."
"So, Childe, are you optimistic about him, or are you not optimistic about him?" Originally, Liu Baiqing shouldn't have asked this kind of question, but he and Cao Yi have already been familiar with each other in the past two or three years, so it doesn't hurt to ask about it.
"Actually, to put it mildly, whether Mu Feichen is good or bad, for us, there is not too much direct connection, I am just optimistic about the Cao Gang behind him, if he is good enough, then after we return the Cao Gang to him, if we are still in a cooperative relationship, then we will get a little more."
"What if he doesn't behave well? If he doesn't perform well, then he can only be a puppet, if he can't even do a puppet, then he can only do the things of a peaceful rich man, the Cao Gang, and he can only hand it over to other people who have the talent to manage and manage it. Although Cao Yi's words were said lightly, the decisiveness behind them made even Liu Baiqing, who had already had many lives on his hands, feel a little trembling.
It seems that his son, who once watched grow up, slowly began to change, and has become more and more iron-blooded and decisive, the original self was expelled from the army by Cao Xiangge, just to protect the son who was like a gentleman before, at that time he still had some thoughts in his heart, but he didn't expect that the boy he once disliked has now grown into an existence that is convincing and willing to follow.
Childe is too demonic, not only in terms of talent and learning, but also for his daily training and martial arts-related learning is also so talented, of course, it is also inseparable from his strong enough self-discipline and strong will, the key is that he has been pampered since he was a child, and he is really ruthless to himself, to a certain extent, he is already abusing himself, and he is happy with it.
The original Cao Yi didn't need to be like this at all, naturally there would be many people like Liu Baiqing who would escort his safety, but Gongzi had his own ideas, according to him, he just couldn't be a useless scholar, and Gongzi seemed to be particularly interested in all kinds of martial arts, as well as the deeds in the martial arts of the rivers and lakes! not only asked himself, but also asked Gongye Yuanzhou.
When the brothers discussed it before, they thought that the son was just temporarily interested in the legend of the heroes of the rivers and lakes, and was interested in martial arts, maybe he would not insist on it if he was less interested in it, who knew that he insisted on it for more than two years, rain or shine, cold and heat, and the only thing that stopped exercising for a few days was a few days ago because of the skin that was whipped by the leather whip, and he was unable to exercise vigorously before he interrupted for a while, but it was also continued the day before yesterday, and because of his arrival, he has been practicing with himself for the past two days.
At the beginning, I was so tired when I practiced feeding moves with Childe, not because of how powerful Childe was, but because Childe was too weak, even if he was only responsible for passive defense, when doing some actions such as blocking, hanging and hiding, he also had to mention that the room could not let Childe get hurt, and the key shot had to be controlled well, not to mention how twisted and tired it was at that time.
But then Childe's strength is just like his persistence day after day, and it is getting better and better, and the time under his own hands is getting longer and longer, a few days ago, when he fought against himself, in addition to not using all his strength, the light move and offensive and defensive experience, Childe has been completely comparable to himself, these consciousness and experience, Childe has made up for it with his own intelligence, but there is no way to achieve it overnight, and Childe can indeed only slowly practice and increase It is far from being compared to himself.
Liu Baiqing put aside the thoughts in his heart, gathered his mind and asked: "Childe, you also said just now, Mu Feichen's father Mu Hong has a great probability that he is still alive, then you don't worry that Mu Hong will not recognize the gentleman's agreement between Gongzi and his son at that time, you really helped his son or help him to get Jing Zhe and the forces behind him, but what if he doesn't want to give us the benefits we deserve?" ”
"If his vision is sharp enough, he will not admit it, if their Cao Gang can cooperate with us, it will be a win-win situation for him, but if he chooses not to cooperate with us, it will definitely be his loss, and I have this confidence, since I can help their Mu family to regain the position of the leader of the Cao Gang, I can also pull their Mu family down from that position!" Cao Yi's tone was very calm, and when he said these words, he didn't even have a trace of fireworks.
