Chapter 123: Forget the New Year
In Chen Mo's impression, the black-faced lieutenant was moody, and he hadn't seen him smile since they met.
Even when he speaks, he is serious and has a look.
Only then did his expression change significantly.
It's no exaggeration to say that it's no different from hell.
Chen Mo didn't expect that Huameishu was not like this, he was stunned with a dagger in his hand, and he was a little dazed for a while.
On the other hand, the black-faced lieutenant, as if he didn't see the change in the expressions of the two, walked a few steps to Hua Meishu.
Staring at the dagger, his breathing became a little short.
"Dagger...... Can you show me? ”
"Chen Mo ......"
Hua Meishu was a little scared, and couldn't help leaning to the side.
"Meishu, give it to him."
When the black-faced lieutenant saw the change, there must be some kind of hidden secret, and Chen Mo also wanted to know what the other party had to do with the owner of the dagger.
If you can climb the relationship, it is a live move.
Hua Meishu answered, handed the dagger over, and the black-faced lieutenant nervously took it and began to look carefully.
In the beginning, it was doubt.
Then, there was shock.
In the end, it is frozen in an indescribable solemnity.
"There's a question for you, can you tell me the truth?"
The black-faced lieutenant held the dagger in both hands and looked at Huameishu, although his face was still sunk, his attitude was much better.
"Please."
At this moment, the gorgeous book has returned to its former indifference.
"What is your relationship with the owner of this dagger?" When the question came out, Captain Black's voice was a little shocked.
It seems to have some kind of expectation, and at the same time worry about being disappointed.
"The dagger is his." Hua Meishu pointed to Chen Mo, "So if there is any problem, let's talk about it." ”
After Hua Meishu finished speaking, he walked straight to the side.
The black-faced lieutenant nodded and looked at Chen Mo, his mouth still the same question.
"This thing ......"
"Sit down."
Chen Mo interrupted, motioned to sit down, and then explained the matter about the dagger.
The reason why he didn't hide it was because he could see that the relationship between the other party and the owner of the dagger was benign.
Sure enough, after listening to Chen Mo's words, the black-faced lieutenant asked excitedly.
"What's the name of the person who gave you the dagger?"
"White Town North!"
This name is still fresh in Chen Mo's memory.
But what he didn't expect was that the black-faced lieutenant was slightly stunned for a moment, and only then did he respectfully return the dagger.
"In Xia Zhong Kui, there was something that was offended before, and I hope you will forgive me."
Zhong Kui?
Chen Mo almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, how could he call this name?
Not to mention, in terms of skin color and personality that is not good at words, it is really somewhat similar to the cold-faced Heavenly Master.
Thinking like this in his heart, Chen Mo took the dagger.
At the same time, he also quickly responded politely.
"The general is serious, and he takes the liberty to ask, what is the relationship between you and my New Year's friend?"
Forget the New Year?
These three words made Zhong Kui chuckle in his heart.
In an instant, the heart is clear.
That's right, in terms of age, the two can only be friends for the year.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the marshal to give away the treasure he carried with him.
Others may not know what this dagger means to the marshal, but Zhong Kui, who used to be a pro-guard, knows too well.
It can even be said that the dagger is the marshal's half-life.
Transferring half of his life to others is enough to imagine how close the relationship between the two is.
It's just that in this way, Zhong Kui is sitting on wax.
first brought Chen Mo and them here, and later when Hou Yong was in trouble, he chose to be a spectator, and at this moment he even locked people in tents, waiting for military law to deal with them. Not to mention all these together, he can't eat a little bit and walk around.
What to do?
Apologize!
Only an apology!
Moreover, it has to be the kind of regret that did not start and is full of sincerity.
Thinking of this, Zhong Kui turned his heart sideways and knelt in front of Chen Mo.
"Please, sir."
"Chen Mo, what's going on?"
Hua Meishu stood next to him and hurried up when he saw this scene.
Chen Mo was also a little confused, but he didn't show it too obviously.
Because he had already guessed the relationship between Zhong Kui and Bai Zhenbei, as expected, the two used to have a superior-subordinate relationship.
Moreover, the relationship is very close.
Only in this way can Zhong Kui's reaction when he saw the dagger be explained, and why he knelt on the ground to plead guilty.
"I didn't expect Bai Zhenbei to serve here?"
While muttering in his heart, Chen Mo also suddenly realized something.
Bai Zhenbei, could it be the original generalissimo of Zhenbei, right?
No way!
When pigs fly!
Chen Mo was taken aback by his own thoughts, and after a little thought, he denied this speculation.
First, if Bai Zhenbei is really a marshal, then the place where he lives will definitely be defended.
But what about the facts?
That night, I went to visit the door, and only saw a servant, Ah Lai.
Second, it's Bai Qi.
If Bai Zhenbei was a marshal, how could he not find his daughter?
An order goes down, not to mention just Baihe County, the entire Taizhou City, and even the whole country can be turned upside down.
The most important thing is that the generalissimo, how can he sit with him and drink and talk.
Isn't that a joke?
Coincidental.
Definitely a coincidence.
A few thoughts quickly turned in his mind, and Chen Mo hurriedly picked up Zhong Kui.
"The general calls me Chen Mo, and the word "sir" is unacceptable."
Zhong Kui got up, took a deep breath and said, "Sir, you don't need to say that, I inquired privately just now, you are the teacher of the academy, and you can teach in all the academies in the county, which is enough to explain Mr.'s knowledge." ”
"It's just a teacher, and the general doesn't have to take it to heart."
After the words fell, Chen Mo asked the previous question again.
What kind of relationship does Zhong Kui have with Bai Zhenbei?
After the other party's narration, Chen Mo finally understood the reason.
As previously speculated, Bai Zhenbei had served in the fortress, and Zhong Kui was one of his personal guards.
Later, Bai Zhenbei left, and Zhong Kui was asked by Hou Yong to be under his command because he was excellent in all aspects.
"Sir, I was to blame for everything before, I didn't figure out your identity, and now I'll take you two out of here."
"Where?" Huameishu suddenly showed joy.
"Go to Nanying." Zhong Kui said in a low and hurried voice, "I know Yang Qi, and I can only see him when I go over there." ”
"Great, Chen Mo, let's go." The heart of the gorgeous book finally fell to the ground.
"There's no hurry."
Chen Mo waved his hand and looked at Zhong Kui.
"The general was ordered to detain us, if we let us go without permission, I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable, so let's make another plan."
"It doesn't matter."
Zhong Kui shook his head and looked at the dagger in Chen Mo's hand.
"I am a person from Rong, and I know the truth that military orders are like mountains, but ...... That was before. ”
"From now on, I will only listen to the orders of the gentleman."
"Don't say it's going to Nanying, even if Mr. wants to go to the enemy country, I will sacrifice my life to accompany me."
