Chapter 73: Zhu Rong Red Clothes
"Go ahead."
The woman in red outside the hall walked in and took a picture with Su Li, who was sent by Chen Nuo at the same time, the woman in red smiled faintly at Su Li, Su Li said goodbye and lowered her head and walked out. Chen Nuo looked at the expressions of the two of them, and didn't say anything, just smiled and welcomed the woman in red in. The woman in red flicked her sleeves and said with a smile: "What, could it be that I read it wrong, wasn't that woman just now?" How did you get so handsome, the general has a chance to introduce me to this little brother. ”
Chen Nuo smiled and said, "Why, just now I looked at the eyes you exchanged, and said that you knew each other for two mornings, so that's not the case?" ”
The woman in red giggled, sat down on the mat next to her unceremoniously, glanced at Chen Nuo charmingly, and said: "As long as it is a strange man and a woman when they meet, both of them look pleasing to the eye, isn't that a familiar expression, what's the fuss, is it the general, you see me look at this little brother twice, so it's uncomfortable?" ”
Chen Nuo smiled and said, "Are you talking about jealousy?" Haha, honestly, it's really a bit. ”
"Jealous? Is this feeling called jealousy? ”
The woman in red glanced at Chen Nuo and said with a smile: "Interesting! It turned out that the dignified General Chen would also be jealous of a little woman, and the little woman was really flattered! ”
Chen Nuo returned to the table and said: "What, if you become a general, you are not a person, can't you have the seven emotions and six desires of a normal person and like the woman you like?" ”
The woman in red pursed her mouth lightly and said with a smile: "It turns out that the general has such a sweet mouth, so you like to pick up some ready-made good words to coax the little girl." The two joked with each other for a while, and before they got back to business, Chen Nuo coughed lightly and said, "It's been two days since I thought about you and me, girl, you came over tonight, you must have done the thing I entrusted to the girl?" I don't know ......."
The woman in red took out something from her sleeve, but it was a small and delicate drum. Chen Nuo saw it at a glance, and then he was stunned, he was very familiar with this thing. In that life, when he was a child, he grew up in the countryside, and this thing is not uncommon for him. At that time, the shops had not yet emerged, so some people bought and sold small snacks and small supplies, and carried goods all day long through the streets and alleys, deep into the countryside, and called them Mr. Merchant. As soon as they got to a populated area, they would take out the small rattle that came with them, and knock it as they went. The drum sounded, and at the same time, the children under the house were told that Tang Shengmeat was here, and Zhan Chaofan was here. By the way, there's also the red or all-green chili candy for five cents......
"General...... General ......"
The woman in red saw Chen Nuo's suddenly stunned expression, didn't say a word, didn't know what was wrong, and tried to call him twice, only then did she pull Chen Nuo back from the fond memories. Chen Nuo came back to his senses, and then he was embarrassed to find that saliva was flowing from the corner of his mouth, so he quickly wiped it off, smiled to cover it up, and said at the same time: "Girl, this rattle in your hand is very good, is it going to be given to me?" Still is...... Wrong! Could it be that the so-called 'Gu Mother' in the girl's mouth is in this drum? ”
Squeak crunch......
When Chen Nuo spoke, he had already heard it, and the creaking sound came from the drum. And the drum moved on top of the wooden table, as if there was some creature hidden inside.
The woman in red nodded at Chen Nuo and said, "Yes, the one in the drum is the 'Gu Mother', as long as you take it out and kill it, then the general, the general's subordinates, and even the people of the whole city will be saved." ”
Chen Nuo was ecstatic, he didn't expect that this so-called 'Gu Mother' was really in the drum in front of him, he was excited, and he was about to go down and pick up the drum, but he was empty-handed, and the drum returned to the sleeve of the woman in red in a blink of an eye, and it was gone. When Chen Nuo saw this, his face couldn't help but darken. When the woman in red saw it, she covered her mouth and giggled, and said, "Why, can't you imagine that the general of the first army has no patience at all?" General, don't worry, since the 'Gu Mother' is here, do you need to worry about anything else? In my opinion, let's talk about the conditions first. ”
Chen Nuo's heart suddenly tightened, and he knew that this woman was not easy to deal with. Now that the 'Gu Mother' is in her hands, then it means that the lives of him, his subordinates, and even the people of the whole city are in her hands, and even if she is in a hurry, she can only wait patiently at this time.
Chen Nuo smiled, walked back to the table, and said, "The girl is right, I am anxious. However, doesn't the girl know what I Chen Nuo is like, since I Chen Nuo promised the girl no matter how harsh the conditions offered by the girl, since I Chen Nuo has made a word, it must be a mountain of Ran Nuo, even if I give up this life, I have to put it into practice for what I said, girl, what do you have to worry about? ”
"Hehe, the general is serious."
The woman in red raised her hand and straightened the green silk on her sideburns, then raised her head and said: "Although there are words first, I will do things for you first and then talk about the conditions, but I think at this time it is better to say my conditions first, I think the general listened to my conditions, and then promised not too late." General, what do you say? ”
At this point, he Chen Nuo couldn't say anything, so he could only nod.
"Well, I think before I say the conditions, the general you should listen to me a story."
The woman in red paused, regardless of whether Chen Nuo agreed or not, and continued: "This story happened eight years ago. Eight years ago, in the wild land of Yizhou, there were hundreds of thousands of Southern Barbarian people, who multiplied under the jurisdiction of our Han Dynasty. However, with the increasing population, various tribes gradually emerged, and this place has the chief of 36 villages, and the owner of the 72 caves of Yibang Cave. They attacked each other for their own interests, and the local government could not check and balance, and later gradually evolved into two major forces, the east and the west. Among these two forces, one is headed by the Meng clan, and the other is respected by the Zhurong clan, who is known as a descendant of the god of fire......"
"Zhurong?"
Mrs. Zhurong? Chen Nuo thought of this familiar figure, and couldn't help but be in awe, and glanced at the woman in red in front of him. From her mouth, saying the wild land of Yizhou and the words of the Southern Barbarians, Chen Nuo's mind was flying, and he was still a little uncomfortable. Before that, he guessed that this woman should be related to Nanban because of the news he got, is this really the case? Otherwise, why did she mention it? But seeing that the woman in red gave him a blank look, he quickly stopped and listened to what she said.
The woman in red didn't pay attention to Chen Nuo's shocked expression, just nodded and continued: "The two major forces of this thing have been competing for several years, and they have won and lost each other, and it is difficult to distinguish for a while. Later, Zhu Rong, a descendant of the God of Fire, decided to dismiss Bing Ge and reconcile with the Western Meng clan because of the endless harm caused to the clansmen by years of war. However, the western Meng clan had the heart to chase the Southern Barbarian King, and the current situation was slightly favorable to them, so they bargained with the eastern Zhurong clan. In the end, the chief of the Meng clan came forward and said that he was willing to marry the eldest daughter of the Zhurong clan for his eldest son. ”
The patriarch of the Zhurong clan didn't want to agree, but he was forced by the Meng family's soldiers, and in desperation, he had to make a choice, agreed to the Meng family's request, and promised to marry his eldest daughter to his son. It's just that the despicable Meng clan, when marrying the daughter of the Zhurong clan, actually hid a sword soldier in the greeting team, and suddenly entered the Zhurong tribe. Poor Zhu Rong clan up and down the lanterns, dedicated to the happy event, never thought that these despicable guys actually had evil intentions, took this opportunity to kill the Zhu Rong tribe by surprise, and turned the good event into a funeral in a blink of an eye. At that time, together with this sword soldier, the Zhurong clan headquarters had no time to gather other departments, and in a blink of an eye, the corpses were killed all over the place for the thieves, and in the end, not only the patriarch of the Zhurong clan and his wife were killed by the knife, it was my ......"
Chen Nuo suddenly saw the woman in red's eyes full of tears, and the tone of her words became more and more resentful, and at this time, he Chen Nuo also heard some eyebrows. Chen Nuo said casually: "This is not a story, this is your personal experience, right?" Girl, are you the eldest daughter of the Zhurong clan in the story, the last person to escape? ”
"Phew, am I that old?"
Although the woman in red was immersed in the past and was sad and uncomfortable, when Chen Nuo said it, she couldn't help but glance at him, spat him, and said: "This was eight years ago, do you think I can be old back then, and I can marry at such a young age?" ”
Chen Nuo was slightly stunned, he couldn't guess how old this woman in red was, and when he heard her say it, he was tempted, so he said: "I was wrong, but I don't know how old you are now, girl?" Can you tell us? ”
When the woman in red was asked by him, she actually lowered her head shallowly, and her pretty face turned red: "Why should I tell you?" ”
Chen Nuo said: "Okay, I'll ask a different question. Since you said that you couldn't get married eight years ago, then I can always know how old you were eight years ago, and whether you could get married? If you don't tell me, how can I believe what you say? ”
The woman in red snorted: "So that you know!" This girl was just a twelve-year-old girl eight years ago, how could she ......?"
When she said this, she suddenly realized that she had fallen for Chen Nuo, and quickly shut up, her pretty face turned red again.
Chen Nuo smiled: "I see, I want the girl to teach me!" But I don't know what the relationship between the eldest daughter of the Zhurong family and the girl is? Seeing that you care like this, it must be ......"
The woman in red nodded and said, "Okay, that's all for it, I won't hide it from you, general." General, you should have guessed it too. Yes, the so-called 'eldest daughter of the Zhurong family' is called Zhurong Green, she is my sister, and my name is Zhurong Hongyi, her only sister. ”
"Zhurong Hongyi?"
Chen Nuo was slightly stunned, it turned out that she had been unwilling to tell him her real name, but her name was closely related to this story, or that her name was too involved in the sad past, and she was unwilling to mention it easily. It's just that she said that the descendants of the Fire God Zhurong Clan are okay, but there is also a 'Western Meng Clan' connected to this matter, which is really confusing. This Montess...... It shouldn't have anything to do with Meng Huo, right? And the person in front of him, although he takes Zhu Rong as his surname, he has never heard the name Zhu Rong Hongyi, and he has no impression at all, it shouldn't be the Mrs. Zhu Rong in history, right? Chen Nuo quickly shook his head, because this is impossible, no matter how you say the story of Mrs. Zhurong and Meng Shu, it must have happened when Zhuge Liang ruled Shu, it seems too early to come out this year! Then it is not.
Chen Nuo thought about it for a while, but he didn't know that Zhu Rong Hongyi had already nodded, and continued: "Back then, the Meng clan played this trick to welcome relatives, and secretly killed my clan with sword soldiers, and my father and aunt died in the chaos, it was me who was young, if it weren't for my sister...... I'm afraid, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape that catastrophe. At that time, my sister was very calm when she suddenly encountered such a change, and immediately thought of me. In order to save me, my sister deliberately let the masters of the clan stay by my side, and let those people protect me with all their might. Only my sister had to go back to fight the thieves behind her in order to stop the pursuers. ”
"Originally, in this chaotic army, my sister's ability may not be able to support it for a long time. Only my sister was related to them after all, and the thief of the Meng clan really coveted the beauty of my beautiful sister, so he had already given a death order to his subordinates before he set out, and he would capture my sister alive no matter what. It is precisely because of this that my sister was able to calmly enter the battle, and in order to divert the other pursuers, she risked her life and desperately killed in the opposite direction of mine. Until, until you reach a cliff, you can't go anymore...... Just, just ...... At that time, I was crying and shouting that I wanted to go back, Abba and Mom died, my sister was my only relative, and I wanted to go back to my sister. Can...... But my sister, in order to prevent that Meng Lang thief from succeeding, after retiring the pursuers, turned back to me and smiled, and then, and then ......"
Zhu Rong Hongyi couldn't go on anymore, and tears poured down her clothes as she looked at them, soaking wet. Suddenly, she felt a thick palm on the back of her head gently patting on her green silk, caring for her like a gentle elder brother, she raised her head and saw the tall and thick chest in front of her, as if a safe haven was standing, waiting for her ship, which had been adrift for many years, to dock. Zhu Rong Hongyi could no longer be reserved, hugged Chen Nuo, and buried his head in his arms.
Chen Nuo sighed lightly. Touching one of her hairs, she sighed: "Siren is gone, Hongyi, you ...... If you want to cry, cry ......"
There was a burst of sobbing, and suddenly it rained like pear blossoms, and Chen Nuo's chest was full of desolation. I don't know how long it took, that Zhu Rong Hongyi suddenly pushed Chen Nuo away, then glanced at him carefully, and said: "I have been wandering outside in Hongyi for many years, and I have not been able to say this sad thing. However, because of this matter, I am so embarrassed today, I am afraid that the general will remember the situation of today's little woman in the future, and I am afraid that I will make fun of the little woman. ”
Chen Nuo raised his eyes to look at her face after the spring rain, and couldn't help but reach out and gently wipe it for her, flicked off a teardrop, and said quietly: "Look at what you said, when you see that the moon in the sky is full and the moon is missing, how can people avoid the troubles of this world?" No matter how strong a person is, he also has times of vulnerability, not to mention that you are still a little woman. Speaking of which, I'm ashamed, maybe you don't know, sometimes I feel sad, and you can't reach it. ”
Zhu Rong Hongyi was slightly stunned when he heard Chen Nuo's words, he couldn't imagine that the dignified general of the First Army would actually have a sad time, and he also admitted that his 'daughter' was even more powerful than her. This, does this mean that I am not an outsider? Zhu Rong Hongyi thought of this, his heart couldn't help but warm, and he glanced at him faintly. The corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, and she wanted to laugh, but she was not funny, for fear that he would misunderstand that she was laughing at him. This mood is a bit funny.
Chen Nuo touched her at a glance, and immediately felt it, and quickly coughed lightly, and said: "Uh, don't get me wrong, in fact, what I mean, I just say that although I have a bold side, I also have a sentimental side, not just a battlefield butcher as outsiders seem." Actually, I'm normal, I'm at least alone...... Oh, look what I'm talking about! However, if you think that you were a twelve-year-old girl who escaped alone, and then traveled thousands of miles here, she must have experienced a lot of hardships, right? ”
Zhu Rong Hongyi nodded and said, "Who said it wasn't?" My people were almost killed in that battle, and for the past few years I have traveled thousands of miles without sleeping for a single day. It was on this road that I was constantly recruiting those former clansmen and uniting them together, hoping to kill them one day, kill the Meng thieves, and regain the position of the king of the Southern Barbarians. ”
When Zhu Rong Hongyi said this, he naturally looked at Chen Nuo.
Chen Nuo was suddenly stunned, his scalp was numb, and his heart suddenly understood: "Heh...... Hehe, hehehe, that red coat, you, the terms you exchanged with me won't be for me to avenge your people and help you ascend to the throne of this so-called Southern Barbarian King, right? ”
Zhu Rong's red-clothed eyes turned faintly, with an infinite smile in the corner of his eyes, and looked at him approvingly. Tell him, yes, it doesn't look like you're stupid.
Chen Nuo was stunned for a while when he got her sure look, shook his head and said: "Hongyi, you also want to get this condition, you also know, I have such a little ...... in my hand."
Zhu Rong Hongyi hurriedly interrupted him: "This general, please rest assured, the conditions are here, but we can discuss the time to complete the conditions." Of course, I know that the general is not strong at the moment, and if you want to send troops to deal with their tens of thousands of men and horses, you will definitely not be an opponent. But please rest assured, in the next few days, little girl, I will do my best to assist the general, as long as the general is strong, he will naturally be able to help me take revenge one day. This day, I can wait. ”
It turned out to be a cake to satisfy hunger, and it was difficult for this woman to be willing to put all her hopes on him, Chen Nuo was slightly moved, and immediately said: "If this is the case, I promise." It's just that I think you should have been wandering around Luoyang for a long time, I think it's not my family around here, and my family may be the weakest compared to Zhang Ji, Li Dao and others, I don't know why you chose me alone, girl? ”
Zhu Rong glanced at him heavily and said, "Because I believe in the general!" ”
