Chapter 1125: Get to know you again

Mu Xianjun had never thought about such a question.

That is, is it appropriate to give what you think is most important to someone you don't trust? Because this in itself is not something to be considered, the answer is already ingrained in everyone's mind. If you don't trust, how can you entrust it?

But Nalan Dingdong's words changed Mu Xianjun's opinion on this matter.

"Do you know what the consequences are?"

Mu Xianjun asked.

Nalan Dingdong nodded, and replied naturally: "For generals, the best plan and the worst plan must be planned well." The worst prediction is that you will order the Red Eyebrow Army to blockade the city, block the army in my camp outside the Phoenix Terrace, and no longer have any contact. The best plan is that when I return with the people, you will hand over the Phoenix Terrace to me. ”

He looked at Mu Xianjun and found that there was some confusion in the other party's eyes, so he continued: "The importance of Phoenix Terrace lies in the battle situation in Eastern Xinjiang. For our Black Flag Army, the Phoenix Terrace itself has no special significance. If someone can hold the Phoenix Terrace so that it will not be broken by the foreigners, then it will not have any impact on the battle situation in Eastern Xinjiang, and it will not have much impact on our Black Flag Army. On the contrary, if you occupy Phoenix Terrace, I can freely lead the troops to leave, and fight wherever I want, which is better for the Black Flag Army. ”

He smiled and said, "In another way, even if it is not you Mu Xianjun who is sitting in front of me, but Mu Guangling." I would choose this way, not because of any trust, but because you are suitable. Of course, what I'm going to do is to rob your father of food, and your father will naturally not help me take care of the house. ”

Mu Xianjun seemed to be a little resistant to the last sentence, but he didn't refute anything in the end.

"I've always wondered, why didn't you go back to Mufu directly after you survived from Penglai Island, but pulled up a team incognito?"

Nalan Dingdong asked.

"Nothing."

Mu Xianjun didn't look over his head and didn't look at Nalan Dingdong: "Everyone has their own choice, and I don't need to tell everyone the original intention of this choice." ”

Nalan Dingdong nodded: "Okay, then I won't ask anymore in the future." There are always some secrets that need to be held in your heart, and you can only take them out and share them with yourself when no one is around. ”

Mu Xianjun seemed to be very sensitive to this sentence, he turned his head to look at Nalan Dingdong and said, "If you are just here to explain the matter of Phoenix Terrace, then I already know." After you lead the troops away, I won't guard this city well, naturally not for your Black Flag Army, but for the people of Eastern Xinjiang. No matter what I've done before, what I think of the people, now I just want to keep this land well, and not let people who have the same skin color, wear the same clothes, and speak the same language as me be bullied. ”

"If you don't have anything else to do, you can leave."

He said.

Nalan Dingdong was not angry, stood up and walked out, and said as he walked: "My father was a warrior of the Northern Liao tribe and died in a battle with the Mengyuan people. However, in order to ensure that the clansmen would not suffer the retaliation of the Mengyuan people, those who died with him were not recognized in the end. Even, the Khan of the Northern Liao tribe declared that they were rebels and had nothing to do with the Northern Liao tribe. ”

"I used to think about how to correct my father's name."

Nalan Dingdong's footsteps paused, and then smiled: "So when I was a child, I kept fighting with people, telling them that my father was a big hero. At that time, it was almost always a bruised nose and a swollen face, because too many children only thought that traitors were damned and did not ask the truth. Later, I found out that every child who fought with me would be beaten up when they came home, and their parents would solemnly tell them that my father was really a big hero. ”

He looked at Mu Xianjun's back: "So, sometimes what you think disagrees and dislikes is just because you are a child and you are facing a child." A person who is truly mature will be able to discern things. In my opinion, there are only three reasons why you chose to fight with foreigners incognito. ”

"First, you feel like you have to avenge your brothers."

"Second, you feel that your reputation used to be too bad among the people, and if you tell them that you are Mu Xianjun, you are afraid that those brothers in your Red Eyebrow Army will reject you. Do you think they don't like the code name Mu Xianjun, but respect the big leader with his face covered. ”

"Third, you feel that you have been living a very wrong life before, and that you are pursuing the wrong direction in life. Now you want to make corrections, but you don't dare to use your true identity to correct them. You want to prove yourself, you want to prove yourself to everyone, including your father, I think, you must have thought that one day after you defeat the foreigners with the Red Eyebrow army, you will come home in armor and tell him that you did it. ”

Mu Xianjun turned his head violently: "Enough!" ”

His eyes were a little red: "My business has nothing to do with you, no matter what purpose I formed the Red Eyebrow Army, it has nothing to do with you." Don't think that you can say anything casually after you save the Red Eyebrows, I don't allow anyone to point fingers! ”

Nalan Dingdong shrugged his shoulders: "Okay, you overlooked one thing. ”

Mu Xianjun almost subconsciously asked: "What?" ”

Nalan Dingdong said: "You have always been afraid that your brothers in the Red Eyebrow Army will know that you are the identity of the little grandfather of Mufu, and you are afraid of losing their trust and respect. But now, everyone in the Red Eyebrow Army already knows that you are Mu Guangling's son, have they ever left you? ”

Nalan Dingdong walked out of the door: "When you yourself are no longer children, the people around you are not children." ”

Mu Xianjun's face changed.

He looked at Nalan Dingdong, but the other party had already walked out of the door.

The breeze blew in through the door, as if to help him sort out his emotions. Sometimes, there are words that always touch the softest part of the heart

Mu Xianjun stood in front of a large bronze mirror and looked at himself in the mirror. Sometimes he always feels that he is glaring, or rather very unpleasant. Especially after he lost an arm, he never wanted to see himself again. He likes to cover himself in a baggy garment and hide his bare shoulder.

It's been a long, long time since I've looked at myself like this.

Mu Xianjun suddenly found that his appearance no longer looked so annoying. When his eyes stayed on the severed arm, he realized that he had been able to face it so calmly. Once, every time he saw this severed arm, he would be angry, and he would want to destroy everything he saw in front of him.

He will take out anger on others and beat and scold the people in the house.

But now, he doesn't even think it's ugly.

"The Great Chief"

His own soldiers came in from outside, intending to tell him that the Black Flag Army had a large-scale mobilization of troops and horses, but found that the big leader was standing in front of the bronze mirror with a smile on his face. That smile was so natural, not a smile for the sake of laughing at all. And the most surprising thing about this pro-soldier was that the big leader didn't cover his face today, and he didn't wear that particularly wide robe.

"What's the matter?"

Mu Xianjun turned around and asked.

The pro-soldier opened his mouth wide, but forgot what he was going to say before.

"Huh?"

He was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly lowered his head: "General Nalan is already mobilizing men and horses, and he has already handed over the defense on the city wall to us." The following leaders asked me to come over and ask, is the big leader going to gather everyone to discuss the matter of wheel defense? ”

"Good"

Mu Xianjun nodded: "Help me wear my armor." ”

The soldiers were stunned again, you must know that Mu Xianjun would never wear armor before, because even if he cultivated to a high level, he would not be able to put on armor for himself with one arm. And Mu Xianjun seemed to mind that others would see his broken arm, and he didn't even allow anyone to enter his residence.

"What?"

Mu Xianjun smiled and said, "In the future, which of you will be on duty, who will help me wear armor." ”

"Whoa!"

The pro-soldiers responded excitedly, and found that today's big leader was very different.

"Also, go carry a pot of wine, I want to see General Nalan off."

"Whoa"

"What are you smirking at?"

"I just think that the big boss is armor-piercing, it's really spiritual."

"Haha!"

Mu Xianjun smiled so freely.

The soldiers carefully put on his armor for him, and then took a few steps back to look at this different big leader carefully. He used to be only in awe of the big leader, but today he found out that the big leader was also so approachable. In the past, even when he was fighting side by side on a battlefield, he felt that there was a distance between him and the big leader. But today, there was a distance, but he found that he was closer to the big leader.

"Big Chief, are you really the little grandfather of Mu Mansion?"

He asked, only to realize that his question was a bit idiotic. When he came to his senses, his face changed and he was very nervous. He was afraid that the big leader would turn his face, and he was afraid of the cold eyes that the big leader would sometimes inadvertently appear.

"Yes"

What he didn't expect was that Mu Xianjun actually smiled and nodded.

"I used to be proud to think it was, but I used to think it could not be. But now I realize that this identity is something in my blood and bones, and it is impossible to deny it. My name is Mu Xianjun, and I am the son of Mu Guangling. I should apologize to you, I should have told you this sooner. ”

He replied with a smile.

The pro-soldier suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and he found that the big leader at this time was extremely tall

On the walls of the Phoenix Terrace stood a one-armed general, who once had a particularly prominent status. But there is no doubt that the former prominence and the present glory are so small. He stood on the city wall and looked into the distance, his eyes were already so pure and without a trace of impurities.

He saw the departing Black Flag Army marching like a long dragon, and watched the fluttering Black Flag Arms Red Battle Flag fluttering in the wind.

"Will I still hate him?"

The name that popped up in Mu Xianjun's heart, the name he once hated. He had always thought that he would never be in the same place as that person, and even the thought of being under the same sky with that person was unbearable. But today, he found that he still wanted to beat that guy hard, but it had nothing to do with hatred.

"You're a hard person to understand."

He said to himself with some emotion: "I have never understood why you sent people and horses to come to Dongjiang to fight with foreigners. I don't think you're a selfless person in thought, but since you can let someone like Nalan Dingdong throw himself to the five bodies you worship, you must have something extraordinary. ”

Mu Xianjun muttered: "If you come to Dongjiang again, I would like to get to know you again." ”
