Chapter 90: The Human Heart Is Dark
That key is the key to the secret room in the Talking Grain Merchant.
"How could it be ......"
"By chance, after all, I still don't know where your granary is. ”
"The dagger!"
Another grain merchant interrupted Bai Gongzi's nonchalant words, he pointed to the dagger and roared, "Where is its owner?"
"That's a bloody Jiangyang thief, now in the hands of the beggars, he is about to die. ”
"He can't die ......"
"Of course he can die, after all, he ...... you back then"
Bai Gongzi smiled and didn't finish his words.
Now, the seven big grain merchants who formed the White Jade Society and controlled all the grain in Wuchang were all lost and crumbling, and they each returned to their seats, slumped in their chairs, some gritted their teeth, and some secretly wept.
The demon clan looked at the people in front of him, and a trace of fear like a poisonous snake swimming flashed in his heart.
He crept down the stairs.
No matter what happened on the tall building behind him, the demons had already decided to leave with the army.
......
Huaiyang.
The displaced people are about to get out of control.
Originally, in the calculations of the Mo family, it was impossible for the displaced people to consume more food than expected, even if they had unlimited food, but the food had to be exchanged for a day's farm work, and they had just gone through a long period of hunger, and their physical strength was limited.
But the speed at which the displaced people worked was beyond the calculations of the Mo family.
To put it simply, now, the day of the food shortage, which will come in three days, has come early.
"Bring in the troops. ”
Mo Yi and Bai Gongzi went to Wuchang together, and there were only a few ordinary ink masters left here, and the incident happened suddenly, and everyone didn't know what to do.
"The army will be in chaos first. Another ink man smiled, "If we want to mobilize the army, they will wonder if there is a shortage of food, and there are already frightened birds everywhere, and the camp may not be able to tell." ”
Standing on the top of the hill, looking at the chaotic river in the distance, now there is no swamp quagmire, only Qianmo vertical and horizontal, one of the small rivers flows through, passing through the place, with the best paddy fields, almost has the appearance of a rich land in the south of the Yangtze River.
"Go get your sword. ”
"Good. ”
A few of the inkmen nodded and turned around.
Then they saw the shadow of the sail in the distance.
"Juzi has arrived. ”
......
The food had arrived, and everyone was elated, but Mo Yi sat on the deck with a gloomy face.
"Because you don't have to worry about affecting the emotions of others, so you can release it freely, will the Mo family Juzi also have such thoughts?"
"I sit alone and depressed when everyone laughs, because you......"
Bai Gongzi laughed.
"For the first time, I've seen how dark human methods can be. ”
"In the words and deeds of the sage Mozi, did you mention what the Mo family should do in the face of such a dark human heart and means?"
Mo Yi was speechless.
He could hear the sarcasm in Bai Gongzi's words, but that was the truth, Mo Yi, who adhered to the Mo family's principles, was helpless in the face of the grain merchants' pressing step by step, and Bai Gongzi, who acted by shady means, won a complete victory, got the grain, saved the situation that was about to collapse, and saved countless lives, including the homeless people and the Mo family.
"The Mo family has three expressions, the original, the original, and the use, as seen by Juzi, what I did in Wuchang is against the way of the Mo family?"
Mo Yi was silent for a moment.
"What you do is good for the people, according to the law of three expressions......"
Mo Yi couldn't speak.
He couldn't recognize that it was right to play with people's hearts, expose the darkness, and distort human nature.
"It's just repairing the broken ship, maybe the next moment, you will fall into the abyss, irretrievable, you don't have to be duplicitous and too entangled. ”
"According to the three-table method, you are right. ”
Mo Yi frowned and stood up.
"But you're right, the world is overturning just in sight, everything needs to be struggled, and I shouldn't sit alone and be depressed. ”
Bai Gongzi looked at Mo Yi and smiled.
"There's probably news from the north. ”
"You mean the Gate of Heaven?"
"I hope there will be no twists and turns in the war. ”
Mo Yi raised his head and looked at the sky.
It was a cloudy day, and the sky was the same dark color everywhere, like a seal cast of lead.
He couldn't see the maelstrom.
"There's news from the north. ”
A disciple of the Mo family interrupted Mo Yi's distant gaze.
"What?"
Mo Yi casually took the sealed letterhead and opened it casually.
......
The armies of the outsiders retreated.
The army was temporarily handed over to Xiang Wu, and he had to continue to improve this encirclement network, while Wang Baobao and Yuan Chi stayed in the big tent and basically had nothing to do.
Despite this, looking at Yuan Chi's lazy appearance of not doing anything, Wang Baobao still has a very subtle feeling.
He didn't say anything, though.
After all, it was Yuan Chi who saved the crumbling battle situation and saved the camp at a critical juncture.
The seemingly unquenchable flame of blood raged among the outsiders, and the inhuman forces of terror terrorized the scales in favor of the outsiders, and in the end, the outsiders chose to retreat temporarily.
Turning the tide of war with the power of one person is the golden bloodline.
"Report!"
Wang Baobao absentmindedly took the secret report, asked the sergeant to leave, and opened the wax pill.
Then he froze.
"What's wrong?"
Yuan Chi asked lazily with his eyes closed.
"The people of the river embankment made a rebellion, raised anti-flags, and responded in all directions, and now the north is full of smoke, and the logistics of our army have been cut off. ”
Yuan Chi opened his eyes.
"Withdraw the army at this time, I'm afraid the army will be unstable, but ......"
"Gather the congregation tonight to take counsel, and set out tomorrow. ”
Wang Baobao sighed: "Okay." ”
......
"You don't seem surprised. ”
Mo Yi put away the letterhead, and his heart was confused for a while.
"We're just struggling to hold on to a broken ship, and no one knows when the ship will fall apart completely. ”
Bai Gongzi didn't say what she really thought in her heart, this was exactly what she expected and had been looking forward to for a long time, but even she didn't expect that the final outbreak would be on the river embankment.
"I had to go to the north, and the emperor sent me a secret edict to go there to quell the rebellion. ”
"It's really a joke, the population in the north has always been less dense than in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are more displaced people in the chaotic place in front of you than all the displaced people in the northern rebellion combined," Bai Gongzi looked at Mo Yi, a trace of pity flashed in his heart, the war has begun, from this moment on, what he pursues can no longer be realized, "If you are not there, what about the Mo family and the displaced people here?"
Mo Yi let out a long sigh.
"You succeed the Mo family. ”
Bai Gongzi looked at Mo and smiled: "When there is a great change, the disciples of the Mo family will not be convinced. ”
"There can't be an accident here, you succeed Juzi, retain the vitality of the Mo family, I will go to the north, although it is for the rise and fall of the world, what I am doing is not the right way, the Mo family should stay out of it." ”
"People in the world don't care. ”
