Section 271 Allegiance
After the meeting, Chen Xing and Aqiaomu returned to the camp of the Thunder Fire Regiment.
"I didn't expect you to agree, are you familiar with the big guys?" In the tent, Aqiaomu asked curiously. The "big guy" in her mouth refers to Tienuo, who is tall and big, and very vivid.
"It's not familiar, but it always looks like people." Chen Xing said, "Judging from the period of contact, Tienuo should not agree, but Shen Guangming has a chance." ”
"Sure enough, foxes and foxes are best friends." Ajomu said a slang word for the sandman.
"By the way, what are your plans for the future?" Chen Xing suddenly asked. He had to consider whether or not to bring Ajomu in the next plan. If the other party can pull together, bring it, and if it doesn't, throw it off.
The Witch King's Treasure. Literally, "Treasure" means "the ultimate treasure", with a unique meaning, and it is likely that there is only one. If you want to bring Arbor, you have to think about the distribution. But if she is willing to join his team, then he, as the boss, can "reasonably" possess the treasure.
"From now on?" Without much thought, Aqiaomu replied, "Find a way to go back, then get a new identity, and find a good master......
"No, that's not what I meant." Chen Xing interrupted her and prompted, "I mean, after this incident, don't you find a team to join?" ”
"Join the team...... Aqiaomu hugged his chest with one hand and supported his chin with the other, looking at the top of the tent, as if he was in deep thought.
"Although you have good strength, you are always a woman, and there are many inconveniences in acting alone." Chen Xing guided.
"Yes......" Aqiaomu nodded thoughtfully.
Chen Xing stopped at the right time and did not continue. As the saying goes, "Jiang Taigong fishes, and those who wish to take the bait", this kind of thing still depends on voluntariness.
After a while, Aqiaomu turned his head, looked at Chen Xing, and asked in a complaining tone, "Do you want me?" The autumn waves in her eyes are rippling, and there is a bit of sadness, like a woman who has just been bullied and ruthlessly abandoned.
"Yes." Chen Xing said casually, "I got a master group with a few friends, and it's still in its infancy, but there are twenty or thirty people. If you want to come, we are always welcome. ”
Although this is a bit of a wolf into the house, in order to monopolize the treasure, I can't care so much. Moreover, as long as the team has enough strength, there is no need to fear that Ajomu will rebel.
But at this moment, Aqiaomu's tone changed, and he sighed, "Think about it, forget it......"
"What's wrong?" Chen Xing asked.
"I want to be cannon fodder again, and I want to sleep with you, am I asking for trouble?" Ajomu said.
"What do you say?" Chen Xing frowned, raised his voice, and looked questioned and extremely unhappy, "I'm not as lustful as you imagined." If you don't want to, no one will force you. Then he shook his hand impatiently, "Forget it, forget it if you don't come, why are you looking for so many excuses?" ”
"Man, relax." Aqiaomu's voice softened, "I'm not doubting your character, it's just the self-protection of a weathered woman." ”
"If you are willing to respect me, I am more than happy to follow you, and I feel very honored." As she spoke, she rubbed Chen Xing's shoulders, "I think you should know that I very much agree with your wisdom and strength. With your shelter and guidance, my future will be clearer and more secure. ”
"So, will you join us and pledge your allegiance to me?" Chen Xing straightened his face and asked in a serious voice.
"I do." Ajomu knelt down in front of him and kissed the back of his hand, "My revered master, I will offer my spirit and flesh for your drive. ”
A Qiaomu's docile appearance made Chen Xing feel hot all over. She did not perform the "karestim ceremony" of the common mercenary profession, nor the "allegiance ceremony" between monarchs and ministers, but the "dedication ceremony" of the court maid. The first only way to do this is to place a fist in front of your chest with one hand and bow your chin, the second is to kneel on one knee, while the third is to kneel on both knees and kiss the back of the owner's hand.
The full name of the consecration is "the sacrificial rite of the spirit and the flesh", and usually only nobles above the rank of earl can have an officially recognized court maid. The court maid was different from other servants in that, from the moment the oath was taken, she gave her soul and body to the object of allegiance and no longer had the autonomy of life. Her master asked her to commit suicide, and she was about to donate her heart, and this right was protected by law. However, the formal dedication requires a witness of higher status and is completed under the notarization of Nova in order to have the corresponding rights.
"I accept." Chen Xing stroked the other party's hair with his hand and completed the etiquette. He wanted to exercise his power, but he couldn't break it right away, so he had to give up.
"Master, what's next for us?"
Maybe it was the servility in his bones, or maybe it was due to his past experience, Aqiaomu quickly changed his name to call Chen Xing "master", and it was extremely smooth, as if he was born to call him that.
Although it seemed to be the case, the more humble Aqiao Mu became, the more wary Chen Xing became, and even regretted recruiting her a little. God knows when she will stab her in the back, for this kind of woman, vows are like eating and drinking, completely weightless.
"Wait for Shen Guangming and them to come back." Chen Xing said. With Shen Mingguang's ability, it was impossible to be trapped in the maze for too long, they just needed to wait quietly.
More than ten hours later, the people of the Black Skull came out, and then the people of the Thunderfire Regiment. The third ape of the giant ape group couldn't wait for the fifth ape to come back, and was asking around.
"Brother, you are also out."
Huo Tsui learned that Chen Xing had returned, so he came over to say hello. Chen Xing took the opportunity to inquire about the whereabouts of the last key.
"Why, you found it too?" Huo Chew subconsciously asked.
"yes." Chen Xing did not say the exact number, but admitted that he had the key in his hand.
"The Black Skull's gang of cowards were driven around like sheep by two tin men, and we rescued them." The fire nozzle stuck in his waist and laughed, "Yang Ku's key is naturally gone, hahaha!" ”
"Is your way out of the palace ? Chen Xing asked.
"yes, what's wrong?" In the second half of the sentence, the nozzle lowered his voice.
"Have you seen the corpse of the ape?" Chen Xing continued to ask.
"See, it's a miserable death, and the whole leg has been cleaned." Huo Chew sighed, "I don't know who is so damaged, and if you kill someone, you have to torture." ”
Aqiaomu's face became gloomy. Huo Tsui said this, he was making a statement, if it was the Thunder Fire Regiment that saved the Black Skull, then the murderer could only be among Jiro Tuan and Chen Xing.
"I killed people." Chen Xing said frankly.
"You, you killed?" Fire's eyes widened, a little incredulous.
Chen Xing knew that Huo Tsui didn't believe that he had this strength, but that he didn't believe that he would be so cruel.
"It's ......a long story," and then he told the other party what had happened.
"Damn it, it's only one leg, it's too cheap for him!" After listening to Chen Xing's narration, Huo Tsui was filled with righteous indignation, and his big hands twisted each other, "If it were me, I would twist his neck into a twist." ”
Hearing Huozui's statement, Ajomu smiled happily.
"Brother, I have something I want to talk to Staff Officer Shen, I don't know if it's convenient?" Chen Xing asked cautiously.
"Okay, I'll call him over, you wait!" Huo Tsui slapped his thigh and went to find Shen Guangming.
