Chapter 19: The Little Matter of Degassing
The sun is slanting in the west, and the light and shadow are abundant.
The edge of the cliff, the recess.
Bai Zhi and Shi Meng met here again.
The breeze came slowly, the coolness was thick, and the heat of the two of them was dispersed.
Bai Zhi looked at the clouds from afar, stood with his chest crossed, his voice was clear, and he said: "Lao Shi, have you participated in the Ming Ghost Festival?" ”
"Ming Oni Festival?"
Shi Meng slapped his head, his rough face showed a sudden expression, and he hummed: "I know this, I have participated in the Ming Ghost Festival of Lao Shi a few times in previous years. ”
"Oh?"
Bai Zhi was dumbfounded, he tilted his head to look at Shi Meng, and said lightly: "With your strength, you are also outstanding among your peers in the Mo family, I don't know if you have ever entered the forbidden land of the Mo family?" ”
"Not really,"
Shi Meng's face showed a little shyness, and his dark face also promoted a little orange color.
After a pause, Shi Meng continued: "In the previous year's Ming Ghost Festival, those disciples who were good at using mechanism techniques also participated, and their mechanism beasts were varied, which annoyed me every time. ”
Speaking of this, Shi Meng glanced at Bai Zhi weakly and closed his mouth.
Bai Zhi laughed and laughed.
It is not difficult to imagine that with Shi Meng's straightforward and reckless temperament, he was in an embarrassed state of restraint when he encountered a trap beast.
However, Bai Zhi didn't point it out, and instead talked about the business that came to him today.
"Lao Shi, the giant is looking for me today and has arranged an errand for me, and I still need you to help me in this matter."
When Shi Meng heard this, he immediately straightened his chest, and his chest was clapped with his big hand, and he hummed: "Don't worry, Commander, leave it to my old Shi to do it." ”
Seeing him in such a posture, Bai Zhi's face turned pale. He frowned and sighed in his heart: What a fool.
Bai Zhixing's eyes stared at Shi Meng, his face was as calm as water, and said, "Do you know what I want you to do, and you dare to guarantee it?" ”
Shi Meng's face rose, and he bragged again. Then he said firmly: "The commander will do whatever I want me to do, and I will never shirk my old stone on the sword mountain and under the sea of fire." ”
It's just that the weakness and flickering in the corners of his eyes fell on his ugly face, and he couldn't hide it.
His family knows his own affairs, and if he really lets him fly to embroider flowers, it will be too difficult for him.
Bai Zhi smiled, he shook his head, and said lightly: "For this year's Ming Ghost Festival, the giant son is entrusted to me and his disciple Dan to be responsible for the preparation, and I am responsible for the sacrifice of ghosts and gods." This matter requires a lot of manpower, so you can help me find a group of reliable disciples. ”
"Yes,"
Shi Meng nodded, his heart was a little more stable, and it was not a problem for him to find someone. With his IQ, he can't think of the twists and turns of this matter.
As the twilight gradually rose, the clouds were already slightly dewed, and the bright moon in the sky was hidden behind the stratus clouds, faintly visible.
Bai Zhi pondered for a moment, and a figure suddenly flashed in his mind.
“…… Lao Shi, is there a person who doesn't know if you have an impression? ”
When Shi Meng heard this, he was curious: "Commander, I don't know who it is?" ”
"A disciple of the Mo family named Ge Li, with long legs and short body, and a strong body, looks like he is about twenty-four or five."
Bai Zhi slowly described according to the appearance in his memory.
Shi Meng paused, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "But is there one person in charge of transmitting the message in the city?" ”
"Not bad."
Shi Meng slapped his palms and said, "I have a little impression, this person is in the central hall on weekdays, responsible for running errands for Lord Juzi and the commanders, and I have seen him a few times on weekdays." ”
"Is that so?"
Bai Zhi pondered, he was just an errand disciple, his status was not high, and he would not be valued by others in the future.
After thinking about it, Bai Zhi said lightly: "Lao Shi, you go to find this person, and let him follow you to do things this time in preparation for the sacrifice." ”
There is only one chance, and whether it is worth it depends on the person's performance.
Shi Meng said strangely: "Commander, do you want to accept this person?" ”
He had proposed to gather some disciples for Bai Zhi before, but Bai Zhi refused.
This time, Bai Zhi took the initiative to use a person, which surprised him very much, could it be that this person is also special?
Glancing at Shi Meng, Bai Zhi smiled softly: "Whether it's worth it or not is still up for discussion." I'll keep him by your side, and you'll have to take care of it for me.
If you misuse mediocrity, or miss a good hand, I will only ask you. ”
Bai Zhi said this sentence harshly, but Shi Meng was moved when he heard it.
Not long ago, he was wantonly targeting Lord Bai Zhi, but now Bai Zhi has entrusted such an important matter to himself, and this trust and honesty have deeply touched his simple heart.
Shi Meng's eyes were warm, his voice was a little vibrato, and he patted his chest and promised: "Commander, rest assured, Lao Shi will definitely check this kid to the bottom." ”
Bai Zhi smiled warmly, patted Shi Meng's shoulder, and said, "Go and prepare, you do something, I don't worry." ”
"Yes, Commander."
Shi Meng roared loudly, and the shock Bai Zhi burst into tinnitus. He strode with his head held high, as if he had won the jackpot, and rushed down the hill in high spirits.
Bai Zhi looked at his back, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his clear and jade-like face.
Those who value love will be hurt, those who value righteousness are easy to be honest, and those who value profit are not good.
Shi Meng is honest and foolish, but he is a person who values love and righteousness, and Bai Zhi's trust and respect for him will be far greater than imagined.
…………
The stars are sparse and the moon is light, and the clouds are slightly broken.
Bai Zhi was draped in silver tulle and stepped on the moon.
As for the small courtyard, there is a warm lamp, which exudes a bright yellow light.
The eaves bell swayed and jingled, as if to welcome Bai Zhi's return.
Bai Zhixing's eyes rippled, and he smiled warmly. There is a light on the lights of thousands of homes for me, which feels warm and intimate.
Before he could step into the courtyard, a plump and full body had pounced into his arms like a dexterous cat.
"Master~"
The dancing phoenix's eyes are bright, the eyes are shining, and the sweet tone is full of attachment and longing for Bai Zhi.
Reaching out and scratching her Qiong nose, Bai Zhi raised his eyes to look at the hall, the startling salamander in a white dress and a green silk hairband, the beautiful figure was leaning against the door frame, looking at Bai Zhi with a smile.
The eyes met, and Bai Zhi's heart floated with love and warmth.
Holding Li Wu closer, Bai Zhi's eyes were soft, and he said gently: "Wan'er, it's so late, you don't have to wait for me, rest early." ”
Qiong snorted lightly, the autumn eyes of the startled salamander contained water, playfully swept over Liwu's shy and dodgy little face, fell on Bai Zhi's face, and said clearly: "I won't wait, I'm afraid I won't see you again tonight." ”
The beauty seemed to be resentful, and her eyes fell on Bai Zhi, which made him feel weak for a while.
Bai Zhi forced himself to calm down, supported the soft delicate body of the startled salamander, and said gently: "I saw you sleeping soundly last night, and I couldn't bear to wake you up." ”
The startled salamander's beautiful eyes were full of sparkles, and she smiled lightly: "I don't blame you, I don't need to explain." ”
Bai Zhi laughed dryly, I believe that you have a ghost.
The number of women who are not jealous is rarer than that of the national treasure giant panda.
It is better to believe that a woman says that she is not jealous, than to believe that a boar will give birth.
However, he still had to follow the words of the startled salamander and say: "Sister Wan'er, be generous." ”
His starry eyes contained a look of admiration, and his face pretended to be admired.
Sister Wan'er, the screaming startled salamander's delicate body was numb, and she couldn't help but tremble.
She glanced at Bai Zhi, walked a few steps briskly inside, looked back and whispered, "It's late at night, it's time to sleep." ”
"Hiss",
Bai Zhi took a breath, turned his head and smiled apologetically at Liwu, and in her disappointed gaze, walked towards the salamander's boudoir.
Tonight, it's another gut battle.
