Chapter 38 Trust
Xiao Wanlong's head was about to blow up at this time, why didn't he even have the strength to open his eyelids? I seemed to be asleep just now, but weishenme had a feeling that the more I slept, the more tired I became? Damn, now is not the time to sleep, there is still a lot to be done! Thinking of this, he struggled to shake his drowsy head and struggled to get out of bed. When he finally opened his eyes, he found that his bed was full of people.
The people standing beside him were none other than the generals he trusted the most. As soon as they saw Xiao Wanlong wake up, they immediately stepped forward and scrambled to ask, "Dashuai, are you okay?" ”
Hearing this, Xiao Wanlong was a little puzzled: "How can I have something?" What the hell are you guys going to do when you guys come to me so late without sleeping? ”
"There are assassins in the handsome!" Tian Sanqiang, who stood closer, said.
"What assassin? Where is it? Did you catch it? Xiao Wanlong asked.
Tian Sanqiang shook his head.
Xiao Wanlong turned his head to the other side again, and asked Abacus Li, who was standing in the corner, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Lao Li naturally didn't dare to be vague when he saw the marshal ask him like this, he clenched his fists and said: "Tell the marshal, the soldiers on patrol passed by here a quarter of an hour ago and found that the guards in front of your house were all lying on the ground. Then they suddenly heard the sound of what seemed to be a galloping footstep on the eaves, and they looked up, and saw only the hat ghost chasing someone. Originally, these soldiers were going to chase after them, but these two people were too fast, and they disappeared in a blink of an eye. They had no choice but to inform us, and now everyone guesses that they have gathered here. ”
"Yes, when we came over, we saw you lying motionless on the bed, but we were really frightened, and we didn't relax until we were sure you were still breathing." Tian Sanqiang, who was standing on the other side, added.
Xiao Wanlong nodded: "So that's the case." Where is the hat ghost now? ”
"He chased the Assassin and hasn't come back yet. But according to our estimates, it should be fine, you must know that guy is the best yin player we have here, and whoever dies he can't die. Tian Sanqiang said with a smile.
"Hmph, your opponents have all run to my bedside, and you still have the heart to laugh? This matter is too serious, we must capture the assassin tonight, and I must see people alive and corpses when I die! Xiao Wanlong said viciously.
"Marshal, please rest assured, Laxin and Mo Zhitian have already taken the Praetorian Guards to chase after them, and I believe that there will be results in a while." Abacus Li on the side replied.
Xiao Wanlong stepped out of the bed and came to the center of the room, and said, "Since Lakshen and they went to chase me, then I will be relieved." As long as there is someone to help. No matter how bad he is, he can hold out until the reinforcements arrive! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Miao Xiaoshu, who was standing in the middle of the crowd, opened her mouth and asked, "Forgive the end of the general's bluntness, is that hat ghost trustworthy?" ”
The words of the first female general of the original village really made everyone's hearts tremble.
Yes, although this hat ghost is extraordinary, he is a cronie of One-Eyed Zhang. Now One-Eyed Zhang is characterized by the commander as a traitor who collaborates with the enemy. Presumably, this hat ghost can't escape the involvement, maybe he lured this assassin tonight. When it was revealed that he was going to assassinate the marshal. He shouted to catch the assassin again. Well, that's right, it looks like that!
A group of people just stood there thinking nonsense, they had been depressed for the past few days, and since the death of One-Eye, these generals were all scared. There are two things they are afraid of: first, they are afraid that the Republic still has spies in the army, and second, they are afraid that Xiao Wanlong will suffer from suspicion due to the blow of this incident. I don't trust them anymore.
Out of this complex psychology, they have been looking listless for the past few days, and there are more and more doubts in their hearts, but no one dares to mention it to Xiao Wanlong. At this embarrassing moment, an assassin actually appeared, and he didn't expect Miao Xiaoshu to ask such a sentence with this momentum. This was a difficult question for the marshal to answer, but he had to face it, because now more than a dozen generals wanted his answer.
"I believe in him, and I believe in you!" Xiao Wanlong gave such a reply after a few seconds of silence.
The generals were a little overwhelmed. They heard loyalty and trust in the commander's tone, but they didn't know whether to accept such an answer at once.
Just when everyone was hesitating, Abacus Li suddenly walked up to Xiao Wanlong and hugged his fist, saying: "Dashuai trusts us like this, then we will definitely go to the soup and fight the fire!" ”
"Yes, Lao Li is right! I think that's the reason too! Tian Sanqiang also stepped forward and echoed.
With the encouragement of these two people, the other generals let go, and they all stated that they would follow Xiao Wanlong until Seris overthrew the rule of the republic. In this way, the dark clouds that had condensed over the original village rebels for several days were finally alleviated, and everyone's tightly knit brows gradually unfolded, and this group of people seemed to have regained the heroism and excitement they had when they set out on the expedition.
This is the result that Xiao Wanlong wants to see the most, and he has been worrying about this matter for the past few days, and he doesn't know how to explain the matter of One-Eyed Zhang to the generals. Well, now he doesn't have to explain anymore, because everyone has seen it very clearly. The one-eyed Zhang incident is just an episode, they have more important things to do, and they don't have the time and energy to ask too much at this time, maybe everything will only be known until the day of the victory of the revolution, right? Xiao Wanlong thought like this, but there was a faint uneasiness in his heart, what was the matter with the gods and heavenly punishment that One-Eyed Zhang said? Is there really a punishment from heaven? He didn't dare to think about it, so he could only put this matter on hold for the time being, after all, it was not time to discuss it.
Just as Xiao Wanlong was thinking in his heart, suddenly a beautiful flute sound floated from the window, this sound was as beautiful as fairy music, all the sounds were wiped out in front of it, the heaven and the earth stopped moving at this moment, time stopped moving at this moment, the joyful notes poured and flowed at the fingertips of the player, and the melodious melody spread under the starry sky.
Xiao Wanlong and the generals stood there dumbfounded, as if listening to this gripping music, but in fact these people had become soulless empty shells, waiting for death to harvest their bodies and spirits.
"What ancient martial arts are just decorations in front of this soul funeral song." With this slightly mocking remark, a graceful figure walked into the room.
The person who came was Situ Xiaoxue, and at this time she was observing this group of motionless living dead with interest. After a circle, she stopped in the middle of the room.
"Well, it turns out that you are Xiao Wanlong! The master treats you as a big trouble, and I'm not a big deal! Hehe, I'll get rid of you now, and then I'll go find my baby. As she spoke, she took out a dagger from her back and prepared to plunge it into Xiao Wanlong's heart.
At the last moment, a large hand suddenly struck from behind her, grabbing her knife-wielding arm.
"Situ Xiaoxue, it's time for you to wake up!" Said the man behind it. (To be continued......)
