Chapter 186: Merit and Demerit
Ding Qingkun pretended to nod after hearing this, "That's right." Saying that, he waved his hand, "Don't be like this, if you want to be grateful, you have to thank the city lord for his courage to kill the enemy, thank Xiao Zhenren for sacrificing his life and forgetting his life to save the people from fire and water, and even more thanks to the imperial court for cultivating these young talents!" As he spoke, Ding Qingkun also knelt on the ground and bowed to the south, shouting, "Long live my lord, long live, long live!" I, the people of Semen, thank you for the great kindness of the Holy Lord! As he spoke, he made a great bow of three kneels and nine prostrations.
This can scare the two children enough, watching everyone make a big salute, if they don't kneel down together at this time, if they are reported, not only will they be unlucky, but they will also affect the teacher, but just follow the bow is not greedy for other people's credit? But the second credit is carefully known, it is obviously the garbage academy and the villagers, and they will earn it if they want to take the credit, what kind of ability is it to be greedy for others, but this situation is ...... Alas! The second child can only blush and worship my lord's grace together.
I thought in my heart, I will definitely explain the truth to my master later, what is the difference between my behavior and stealing? What's more, it's still the credit of those demon beasts and the lower ninth-rate people who sacrificed their lives in exchange, and the two of us resolutely don't want it! The two looked at each other, and they both saw the firm belief in each other's eyes. Hum! What's the big deal about this, when we learn this thing, there will definitely be bigger things, what's the big deal about catching some thieves and grass cowards? The two nodded to each other.
The second carefully swore secretly: In the future, I will surpass the group of ninth-rate and demon beasts who exude a stench and wear tattered clothes, and I feel disgusted when I think about it, hum! We are geniuses, we have entered the sixth floor of the Qiankun Tower, this time they are just opportunistic, with those strange and ingenious fire guns to win, and not with your own skills to win against others, what's the big deal? The second elementary school is a little angry every time I think about this, what we learn is the avenue!
After performing this drama of loyalty to the monarch and serving the country, Ding Qingkun hurriedly pulled the second child aside and asked where the remaining children were. After that, Ding Qingkun ordered his subordinates to hurry into the mountain to find the three people first, and sent additional people to search for the surviving students in the mountain.
The people sent out when it was getting late finally returned, and in addition to the three people hiding in the cave, six other academy students and more than a dozen corpses were recovered from the mountain. Just under the drum tower in the center of the city, Shi Hao and several bandit leaders under him were pulled up. At this time, although Shi Hao and the others were banned from having no skills, they were still grinning at the surrounding crowd like fierce gods, glaring angrily, and several young children were so frightened that they cried.
But in the same way, they were greeted by the sticks of the soldiers and the denunciations of the people, bricks, etc., but what are these people afraid of until now? A group of bandits led by Shi Hao laughed wildly, "Cowards, a group of bastards who have lost their eggs!" Why didn't you have such skills when we attacked the city just now, phew, it's not as good as the group of children outside the city! ”
"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! Three high-fives sounded in a row, and then Ding Qingkun appeared in front of everyone, only to hear him laugh loudly, "Okay!" Well said the Chief! That's right, I also admire the heroism of those children who fought to the end for the country. Speaking of this, Ding Qingkun shouted: "Please come up, let the people of Saimen City take a look at the outstanding young men of our human race, please!" ”
With the words, the two genius teenagers of the Wuji Hall were pushed out first, followed by the geniuses Sun Pengyuan and Ding Wendong of the Zhongyi Society, and then the nine genius teenagers from other academies and the three teenagers of the Zhongyi Society who were recovered from Xiang Yin Mountain, a total of sixteen young heroes of Da Liao. In front of them were the bodies of more than a dozen fallen geniuses from other academies who had just been recovered from the mountains.
At this time, Ding Wendong strode to the front of the stage, waved his arms, and denounced the criminal atrocities committed by the group of outlaws behind him and how they chased them all the way from the mountains to the outside of the city, until finally regardless of the casualties to block their retreat, regardless of the casualties, dragged until the reinforcements arrived.
Speaking of emotion, Ding Wendong hugged his head and cried, threw himself on the more than a dozen corpses in front of him, and cried: "Brothers, you should open your eyes and see, we won!" We won! The reinforcements arrived, and all the bandits were caught, brothers, you can look at it, big brother, I will send my brothers a game. As he spoke, the genius boys on the stage knelt down and saluted.
The masses swore angrily to avenge the tragic death of their loved ones, and some people rushed to the stage with knives, eager to immediately behead these heinous bandits in order to relieve their hatred.
And the two teenagers in it, whose bodies were already out of control, seemed to be forbidden and couldn't speak, just followed the others like this, which made the two of them so anxious that they didn't know what to do. At this time, the city lord Chang Fengmao, who was in the background, was unhurriedly pinching the law execution.
Xiao Zhenzi pressed his anger down and down, and after watching the law decision, he pointed to Chang Fengmao's nose and asked, "Tell me, what the hell is going on?" You explain to me clearly today, otherwise I, Xiao Zhenzi, would rather give up this body of cultivation and will definitely seek justice for those children! ”
Chang Fengmao twisted around and pressed Xiao Zhenzi back into the chair, poured him another cup of tea, and then said with a smile: "Xiao Zhenren should not be so angry, I am also thinking about you and me, although I am a little wronged by that group of children, but you and I will double the compensation afterwards." Isn't this also to wipe our butts clean before we have to? Saying that, Chang Fengmao put on a very helpless expression.
At this time, Xiao Zhenzi didn't want to admit that it was the group of demon animals that he had always despised saved him, not to mention that his life was saved by the old "bustard" son of the female branch in the city. But he was so greedy for merit, which was really unacceptable in conscience, so he had to behave angrily. But it seems that this guy still has something to say? Xiao Zhenzi stabilized his mind and looked at Chang Fengmao with puzzled eyes.
Chang Fengmao sat back in his place unhurriedly, took a sip of tea before explaining: "Xiao Zhenren, we understand that people don't talk foolishly, those children are indeed meritorious, thanks to the court, and to the community, but what about this?" They're either born demon beasts or are grass people from other domains, so what if I put them on the roster to show that they are first-class? What will become of the Holy Decree when it is issued, I believe that Xiao Zhenren should know better than me. ”
This sentence stopped Xiao Zhenzi, and Xiao Zhenzi seemed to be a little relieved in his heart, and his heart was better to make more compensation after getting off the donkey. But Chang Fengmao on the other side spoke again: "What's more, this time, we were negligent for a while, don't believe the rumors, thinking that Shi Hao is just some rogue grass bandits, I really didn't expect them to have such a big power, so they almost lost Saimen City, and the city defense has been broken, and the people in the city have suffered heavy losses!"
Even if we can rely on Shi Hao's head to offset these responsibilities now, what about afterwards? We will always meet the time when the stirrup is short, if it is used by the young people in the middle of the night at that time, and the old things are mentioned again, I am afraid that it will not be clear at that time, right? Speaking of this, Chang Fengmao stared at Xiao Zhenzi with his eyes, thinking in his heart that I want to see what to do with this old man?
These words really stopped Xiao Zhenzi, and he was a little anxious. That's right, it's still this old fox who thinks about it thoroughly, thinking of this, Xiao Zhenzi looked back at Chang Fengmao and asked, "Then what should I do according to what my brother Tai sees?" ”
Chang Fengmao squinted his eyes and smiled, thinking in his heart: Hmph! At this time, we are grasshoppers on a rope, and you can't escape me, so you can't help but take the bait. Thinking of this, he said, "Why don't you turn it around?" ”
As soon as Xiao Zhenzi heard this, this was a hurdle that he couldn't get over on his conscience, so he flicked his sleeves and turned his back and said, "This must not be!" If you don't reward it, why did you come out again? If I do this, I can't agree to it. ”
Chang Fengmao looked at Xiao Zhenzi's expression, and sneered in his heart, pretend, you just continue to pretend! Xie persuaded: "You listen to me first, I mean this responsibility is divided into three, you and I also have to bear part of the responsibility for negligence, you and I take the initiative to ask the court for guilt, and let the little hairball take on a little bit, such as bullying the demon beasts in the mountains to make the demon beasts take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble so that Shi Hao has a chance, but afterwards he took the initiative to destroy the demon beasts that made trouble, and it can be regarded as a meritorious achievement, isn't this over?" ”
But looking at Xiao Zhenzi, it seemed that he was still a little hesitant, Chang Fengmao continued to enlighten: "After all, it is my people, and we will find a chance to compensate for it afterwards." Think about it, even if they repay the court, what benefits can they get in the end? It's better to take some responsibility for you and me, and in the end it's just a disposal that will offset the merits, and then you and I will compensate for it, how can this be much stronger than the reward given by the court, what do you say? ”
Xiao Zhenzi leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes for a long time without saying a word, and Chang Fengmao was not in a hurry to drink tea leisurely. After a long time, a lament sounded in the room, "Alas, you, how will I behave in the future?" ”
Chang Fengmao smiled and said: "Don't say that from the real person, there is still a long way to go, and when there is merit, I will report to the court again to ask for a double reward, this time I will first wronged the children." Alas! With another deep sigh, Xiao Zhenzi lowered his head and said nothing.
In front of the stage, Shi Hao, the barbarian god, looked at the clumsy performance in front of him, laughed arrogantly at the sky, and shouted while laughing, "Little guys, you should come and take a look!" This is the court that you are loyal to, this is the people for whom you sacrificed their lives and died, hahaha, stupid! Stupid! You are just the same as the handsome man at the beginning, stupid! A few tears slipped from the corners of his eyes.
The tied accomplices around shouted, "What is the big brother crying about? Afraid of a bird? It's a big deal, eighteen years later, it's a good man again! Eighteen years later, our brothers will get together again, and when the time comes, we will pull up another team of people, and we can slaughter him here again! Hahaha...... "Heroic laughter spread throughout the square.
"Phew! A bunch of outlaws! I don't know who spat and cursed on the ground.
At this moment, I suddenly heard an urgent report from afar, "Defeated!" Defeated! After the Tang Dynasty demon beast army invaded the territory of our clan for thousands of miles, the place where it passed was like a falling demon cave, and the saint and the adults were reorganizing their armies in Beijing! ”
