Volume 1 Chapter 15 Commitments
One, two, three......
"Alas!"
Old Lady Su took the lead in sighing, Old Lady Su's expression darkened, turned around dejectedly, and led everyone out.
"Wait a minute!"
Chu Mo shouted this time, and everyone in the Su family immediately took shape, and their faces showed surprise.
Su Mubai's eyes were even brighter, an irrepressible smile appeared on his face, he looked at Chu Mo, and said excitedly: "Chu Mo, are you willing to save us?!"
Everyone slowly turned around, expectantly.
Chu Mo didn't answer, just said, "I have a few questions. ”
"Please!" Old Lady Su stared at him, his cloudy eyes showed a bright light, and he had already seen hope.
"I've been puzzled for the past few days, you should have been so polite to me, and now it seems that this is indeed the case. So, am I ......" Chu Mo's voice lowered a little, and said, "Did I fall into your calculations from the beginning?"
"This ......" Old Lady Su shook her head with a wry smile, "It's not a secret, before Mu Bai invited you to come to the mansion, the old man didn't know anything about you." That day, Mu Bai rode a horse and hurriedly went out, and I asked the next person curiously, and then I knew that there was a heroic boy like you, so I moved my mind. ”
"Then why did you bend down to beg me like this, do you think I have the strength to fight against the imperial court?" Chu Mo asked again.
"Definitely. Old Lady Su sighed and said, "The old man never thought of letting you collide head-on with the imperial court. First, the court is powerful and the masters are like clouds, and this method of hitting stones with eggs is not advisable. Second, my Su family has been building a family with benevolence and righteousness for generations, and I will definitely not put you in danger of death. ”
"Then how can you put your hope in me?"
"My Su family is just a literati family, not good at fighting! And you are a cultivator, with extraordinary talents, if you can achieve something in a short period of time, you will definitely be able to leave some blood for my Su family!"
"Leave some blood?!" Chu Mo raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Aren't you going to fight for it?"
"Fight?" Old Lady Su smiled self-deprecatingly: "If this incident happened to those families with deep backgrounds, it may still be possible, after all, they have a wide network of people and many cultivators in the clan, even the imperial court should be afraid of three points." But my Su family is just a scholarly family, with a shallow foundation, and even my title is obtained because of the conspiracy between the DPRK and China. ”
"I have one last question. Why don't you look for other people who have already achieved cultivation, but look for me?" Chu Mo asked suspiciously.
"Well, the old man was about to talk about this too. Old Lady Su said: "A few days ago, the old man also inquired about the two elders in your village, you are not from the family sect, right? In today's dynasty, most of the people who have achieved success in cultivation are born noble and have deep scheming. My Su family brought treasure to beg them, but it made people covet it, which was tantamount to a sheep falling into the mouth of a tiger. The old man sees that you are still young, you are charitable, and the treasures are presented in front of you without the color of greed, and your character will be a hundred times better than them!"
"That's all?" Chu Mo frowned, isn't this a bit of a big bet?
In addition, the old man naturally has some deep meaning. If you can cultivate this way at a young age, then the Venerable Master must be a person who has attained the Dao!"
Chu Mo was shocked, he didn't expect Old Lady Su to analyze it so thoroughly, even Su Mubai came to offer treasure for the first time, it was also to test his character!
"Old lady. Chu Mo said softly: "Aren't you afraid of seeing the wrong person? If I agree to the Su family, and then escape with the treasure, you will be helpless." ”
"Don't be afraid. ”
"This treasure is not ordinary, it is enough to make me risky!"
"Hahaha!" Old Lady Su laughed, "Since you dare to bet, you can only believe in you, if it is not a person, you can only blame me Su family's fate should be like this, it is destined to be doomed." ”
"The old man can see it. Chu Mo sighed: "When it comes to this, if I refuse, it seems that I can't say anything." ”
"So, you agreed?!" Old Lady Su was shocked and showed great joy.
Chu Mo nodded, which was an answer. He has been a human being in two lives, and he has long looked down on many dangers, and he can do whatever he wants, and he can be worthy of his heart. The Su family treated him with courtesy repeatedly, although he had a plan, but he was not persecuted, and the way he did things was also comfortable, and he had no reason to refuse. Besides, Su Mubai can be regarded as the first friend he has made since he came to this world, and it would be against his heart to abandon him. ”
"Chu Mo, I'll call you that for the time being. If you help my Su family when they are in the most danger, then my Su family will definitely not treat you as an outsider. Let me ask you, have you ever been engaged?"
Chu Mo shook his head, the people in the ravine are very pragmatic, and the marriage is not as polite as the outside world, and no one has ever helped him order any doll kisses.
"Well, that's good. ”
Old lady Su stroked her beard with relief, and then smiled without saying a word. The people next to him seemed to know what it meant, and they all stood with a smile, looking at Chu Mo's eyes, there seemed to be something more in their eyes.
Chu Mo was very puzzled, what happened to this family, and suddenly asked about this kind of private matter? Could it be that he wants to help me talk about a family matter?
Thinking of this, his heart is a little itchy, he is a single person in both lives, and he really has some expectations for the little thing between men and women.
However, Old Lady Su didn't continue, and he didn't want to ask, so he could only suppress this doubt in his heart.
Unconsciously, in the middle of the night, the Su family just had a heart disease, and the mood was very relaxed, and the old lady Su was even more energetic, without sleep, holding Chu Mo's hand and talking.
After a conversation, Chu Mo gradually understood that the identity of the person standing behind Old Lady Su was not simple. The two middle-aged people are the sons of Mrs. Su, and one is named Su Tingtan, who is Su Mubai's father, that is, the Zhizhou Lord of Jiangzhou. And the other is the second son of the Su family, called Su Tianru, whose status is also very high, he is the head of the Hanlin Academy, and has been serving in the imperial court, and he was specially summoned by the old lady Su in the past few days.
As for the two middle-aged beauties, they are their original partners, plus Su Mubai, the only seedling of the Su family, it just so happens that the main characters of the Su family are all here.
"Big nephew, in fact, there is still one person who has not arrived today. Su Qianru on the side squinted with a smile, looked at Chu Mo with a special look, and said with a smile.
"Uncle said with a smile, if you are a person who does not fall behind, you will treat me as an outsider. Chu Mo smiled and didn't ask who that person was.
Su Tianru stroked his beard and smiled without saying a word, but the others laughed.
Chu Mo was even more puzzled, and always felt that there was something wrong with everyone's laughter. But from these hearty laughter, he couldn't hear a trace of malice, which was really incomprehensible.
......
Until the crowd dispersed, and the room was deserted again. Only then did Chu Mo grab the sword box and slowly open it.
The King Kong sword lay quietly in the sword box, the transparent sword body flashed with a little starlight, beautiful, very good-looking.
Chu Mo stroked it, the taste in his heart was incomprehensible, and it felt like a dream. In his previous life, he couldn't even afford a broken diamond, but now he has a treasure made of pure diamonds! This is a genuine magic weapon! It is a bit lighter to say that it is worth a lot of money, and no matter in terms of material or practicality, several cities cannot be exchanged!
