Chapter 905: Poor Man
Most of the dead people only knew about the entanglements between Bai Huan and Lu Ming, but they didn't know that General Lin also had a past with them. When they were teenagers, they met because of certain things, and later they talked happily with each other, and for a long time, they treated each other as confidants, and this situation did not change until they met that person.
The so-called person is naturally Feng Changqi's biological father, although Meng Liguo's situation was a little bad at that time, but after all, there is some background, and if it is chaotic, it will not collapse directly, it is Bai Huan who lost confidence in himself and deliberately led Meng Liguo to a dead end, and later, it was like what the world saw.......
Many years ago, on the riverside, under the bright white moonlight, the three people who raised their glasses and made promises have finally changed.
"General, could it be that you have some friendship with General Lu?"
General Lin didn't bother to explain to the prefect in front of him, and when he rode into the city in a carriage, he saw the yellow and thin faces of the people, and he completely lost confidence in this prefect, and then looked at the other party's flattering appearance, and felt more and more disgusted. After all, the current Yongcheng is his own stronghold, and in the future, he will have to ask this person to support in the rear, and he will be suspicious of each other and even make all kinds of precautions before the war starts, but the taboo of the soldiers, General Lin will never make such a mistake.
"It's not a friendship, it's just a few words when I was young." General Lin was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would not even want to do superficial work, so he suddenly stood up.
The prefect thought that his movements were because he was tired and wanted to rest, so he also stood up: "General, the guest room is ready, do you want to-"
"Stop." General Lin's eyes became colder and colder, "Have you ever seen a general who is not in the barracks but stays in the city?" ”
"This ......" the prefect was dumbfounded, he never thought that General Lin's anger could be ignited so easily!
General Lin snorted coldly: "The commander of the first army, naturally he should eat and live with the soldiers under his command, the soldiers are in the camp, but I am hiding in the city to live a comfortable and comfortable life, if the matter spreads, how can I gain a foothold in front of people?" I came to the city today, just to inquire about the news of Broken Leaf City, and now that the news has been heard, General Ben will not stay here. As soon as he finished speaking, he walked out the door. Before leaving, he didn't forget to turn his head and tell the others: "No need to send each other, it's better not to disturb if there is no important matter." ”
With that, he quickened his pace and walked out of the door, and in just a few moments, he completely disappeared from everyone's sight.
In the huge living room, there were only a few people left, and the prefect also understood at this time, and looked at the direction where General Lin left with a twisted brow, and his face was dissatisfied: "I didn't expect this General Lin to be as difficult to deal with as Lu Ming, and they all lived like human spirits!" I'm so! ”
The prefect's sleeves were swept away, and the tea cup on the table fell to the ground with a loud noise.
Seeing this, several henchmen hurriedly knelt on the ground. One of them, who was relatively bold, saw the prefect's angry appearance and hurriedly persuaded him not to be angry.
"How can there be so many people in the world who are indifferent to fame and fortune? That Lu Ming is also a separate exception, he is so relied on by the first emperor, it is normal that he is not interested in gold and silver property, maybe the rewards in his family are piled up, but General Lin is not necessarily! ”
"Oh? Then you might as well talk about it, why is it not necessarily the law? ”
The henchman made persistent efforts and said: "When General Lin entered the mansion, almost ordinary people in the city saw it, and when the general came, he was empty-handed, but when he left, he carried many gifts, wouldn't it be eye-catching?" The general must have left himself so far away to avoid suspicion, maybe you can try to go private? ”
The so-called private in the mouth of the henchmen is to inquire about General Lin's preferences, and then send someone to send the gifts he likes, and the best time to give the gifts is at night, because only at that time, the people in the city and the soldiers in the barracks will not pay attention to the outside world.
The prefect also has no way, as an official, he is no different from a soil emperor in the eyes of the people, and he has done a lot of things in the shadow of some people in the capital over the years.
If those things were discovered by General Lin, I am afraid he would never have a chance to turn over.
"There's only one chance right now." I hope General Lin knows better, don't be like that Lu Ming who doesn't know the importance of showing favor to others, it's best that he can thoroughly understand the meaning of the saying that people are soft and humiliated and short-mouthed! Don't get him in too much trouble!
While he was worrying with his subordinates about a gift that General Lin might like, the carriage was hurrying through a forest on the way to the barracks.
Because the surrounding environment is relatively quiet. All they could hear on the road was the sound of the wagon turning, and this continued until they passed a fork in the road, when they heard other sounds.
A young soldier struck a sudden blow and turned his head to look at the surrounding woods. Although it was broad daylight, the weather was particularly gloomy, and the woods looked eerie against the backdrop of the weather. If you pricked up your ears and listened closely, you could hear the cry coming from the woods.
The crying is very poignant, and if you hear it at night, you may even be able to scare a few children into crying.
The rest of the soldiers also heard the cry, and everyone looked at each other, and they all saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
"Did you hear anything?"
"Hear me! It looks like someone is crying in the woods, and it sounds like it's still the voice of a girl's house! The one shuddered, his eyes flickered, "I heard that there are female monsters in the kind of places that are relatively remote and rarely passed, and they will attract passers-by with their cries, and when passers-by take the bait, they will eat them alive!" Are you talking about the sound of -"
"Ahem." General Lin, who was sitting in the carriage, couldn't hold back any longer, he had never believed in demons and monsters, he only felt that those were just fabricated rumors! Someone publicized those demons and monsters in front of him, he naturally couldn't help it, opened the curtain and said with a cold expression: "Where are the demons and monsters in the world, don't mislead others at will." ”
"But you also heard the cry, General......."
As if to confirm the soldier's words, the original cry in the woods became more and more obvious, and General Lin's brows became tighter and tighter.
He still doesn't believe that there are so-called ghosts, gods and demons in this world, those chatting stories are just nonsense made up by adults to coax children, the more his subordinates think this voice is weird, the more he wants to get out of the car to see the direction where the sound comes from, he wants to see where the cry comes from!
"Stop!"
The driver driving in front of him stopped in response, and the surrounding guards also reined in when they saw this.
General Lin lifted the curtain, jumped directly from the carriage, and then walked quickly in the direction where the voice came from.
The accompanying guards didn't expect him to do such a thing, so when they saw this kind of scene, they were all stunned, the general didn't want to see what the owner of the voice looked like, right?
I hope there are no so-called demons and monsters in the world!
Seeing that General Lin was going farther and farther, and that he was about to disappear completely from everyone's sight, the guards hurriedly caught up.
The group followed the direction from which the sound came all the way to the river, where they faintly saw a voice. As expected, the person who made the sound was a woman, who was squatting by the river with her back to the crowd, and although there was no way to see her face clearly, it was supposed to be a young girl with a good appearance. It's really strange that a big girl's family doesn't stay in her own house, but runs outside, and she runs to cry next to this remote stream that few people pass, what is it for?
Everyone stared at the girl's back, and they didn't even dare to take a breath of air, for fear that the other party would find out about their existence.
Just when they were secretly observing this girl, thousands of questions flashed in their hearts, and even more surprising things happened in front of their eyes!
I saw that the girl didn't know where to find a white silk, picked up a stone from the ground and tied it to the end, and threw it on the branch with all her might, and the white silk hung up like this!
The girl stopped crying and burst into a chuckle.
Her hands kept moving, thinking that she was tying a knot with the white silk, and in a few moments, she stood on the stone, and her slender white neck was sent into the circle.
I didn't expect her to really do something stupid, and General Lin thought she was trying to do something else at first. Although I don't know what she has experienced, most of the people who have been on the battlefield will not spare their lives and will never watch her seek death like this! A cold light flashed in General Lin's hand, and in an instant, the short knife cut off Bai Aya, and as the gravity of the support was cut off, the girl's body also fell to the ground.
The soldiers hurriedly stepped forward to inspect the situation, but saw that the girl had her eyes closed tightly, and the person had lost consciousness, but fortunately, her breathing was still there, but there was a wound on her forehead, presumably caused by Bai Aya being cut off and her head hitting the stone when she fell!
The young soldier looked at General Lin not far away: "General, this girl is still angry, do you want to bring her back?" ”
The barracks are important places, which are places where ordinary people can't come and go at will, and this girl's origin is unknown, and she can't take it back. But this place is not in front of the village, there is no store in the back, and there is not even a figure around, so she can't leave her here, right? The jungle here is thick, and if she eats the beasts at any time, they will be guilty of a great sin.
After weighing the pros and cons, General Lin finally made a decision: "Take her back, send someone to guard her strictly, and don't let her go in and out at will until her identity is ascertained." ”
"Thank you, General! The general is wise! The soldiers let out a cheer.
