Chen Hansheng stood in his bedroom, leaned against the window, and rarely spotted a Chinese cigarette. In the dimly lit room with only oil lamps, the red dot of the cigarette changed with his inhalation.
Kalanda didn't like the smell, sitting far from the bed. However, she knows that every time this happens, it shows that Chen Hansheng is entangled.
Chen Hansheng closed his eyes from time to time, and sometimes looked into the distance, as if constantly thinking about something in his mind. In the end, he took a few breaths and spit out a haze of mist, and said: "We used to have a story called" Hongmen Banquet "in our old hometown, which later became a word called Banquet No Good Banquet."
"Is it the story of inviting people to dinner and then murdering the guests?" Kalanda asked.
"Smart! No one else knows how clever you are under your killing." Chen Hansheng gave her a thumbs-up, and then told the story of the Hongmen Banquet again.
Karanda said after hearing this: "Such a story is not uncommon for us here. Especially the nobles in remote places can really do anything. People who believe in fists will always use fists to solve problems. By the way, there were people who once hired our mercenary regiment to be the "swordsman" in that story. "
"You must have refused?"
"No, what we want to cut is not a good thing. I'm a mercenary, why don't I take it? It's just that the other party didn't come at all." Kalanda said with a worried face, "You are worried about the baron's Is the banquet a trap? "
Chen Hansheng shook his ashes and said: "The baron must have no peace of mind. In a town with less than two thousand businessmen, making 40 or 50 friends means you know everything. I know the baron. The two sons are back, not only by themselves, but also with their companions. The magician here comes from the Red Lotus Tower, and the baron ’s son-in-law also brings a capable team to this small town. There were more than two or thirty warrior mages in one breath. You said, for whom?
"However, I have repeatedly thought about whether or not I should take this opportunity to start. Once we do it, we can also poke the horse honeycomb. There are many forces around us that will be offended. Maybe there will be wars on several sides, and the pressure will not be small. "When Chen Hansheng said here, he stared blankly at the baron's house far away from the window, and he forgot the smoke in his hand.
Karanda came to him and leaned against the window as well, looking at him and saying, "I think you don't know enough about the virtue of the nobility. If you show enough strength, you feel that there is no benefit. , They will not avenge a lost noble. "
Chen Hansheng stared at her for a while, as if receiving some kind of encouragement, he put his cigarette off and closed the window, "There is more than a day, enough for us to get ready. Now we are convening everyone to meet! Lao Tzu's straw shoes this month are not Made from white! "
The next day, Wang Xiaofeng walked into Lena's yard as usual, and then put the picking grass on the ground, and saw Lena approaching with a worried face.
"That's it?" He saw that Lena didn't move the grass as usual, but stood beside him with her hands clasped.
"Are you ... are you doing anything?" Lena asked hesitantly.
"Huh? Why do you say that?"
"I ..." Lena struggled for a while. "I saw the fire in your yard last night till late."
Wang Xiaofeng looked around and closed the courtyard door, strangely saying: "Why are you staring at our hostel at night?"
Lina lowered her head and said, "I watch every day, since you came here."
auzw.com Wang Xiaofeng didn't understand it at first, and after watching Lina's flushed face, she finally recollected it. He embarrassedly said: "It is something, but you are a woman with a child, just stay at home."
"Is it a baron?"
"How do you think of the baron."
"Don't be foolish when I am! Although I don't know much about you, I have listened to you for so many days. I also joined the Mutual Aid Society and the Women's Association. I also know that the bad guy Baron wo n’t let us live a good life, but it ’s just not the time. "
Suddenly, Wang Xiaofeng found that he had always underestimated these locals. Yeah, who would be more stupid than anyone else?
"Don't you always make me understand the truth? The baron has a grudge against me! Me, I have to do something."
Mareno is helping the old Dominique chopping wood.
Dominique looked at him for a long time and said, "Say something quickly, let go of farts."
"what?"
"Your chopping firewood is only half your usual time today. Either you walked and hit your head silly, or you really have something to say," Dominique said.
"It's something!" Mareno acknowledged with a nod.
The old man snorted and turned into the bedroom.
Mareno was so confused by his movements that he shook his head and had to continue chopping wood.
After more than ten minutes, Dominique appeared again. But what surprised Mareno was that he actually appeared in the door of the house in a leather armor and a long sword.
The equipment on the old man looked a bit old, but it was obviously maintained all year round. Mareno even noticed a noticeable patch on the right leg of the leather armor that sealed a large crack. This should be where Dominic was injured on the battlefield that year?
"I haven't done it for a long time, and I'm really looking forward to it." The old man touched the blade, and then waved it forward. The long sword swept across the tip of Mareno's nose with a white haunted grudge, and split the firewood into Two halves.
Similar to the situation of these two, it happened in the homes of many local residents. Many members of the working group broke away from the theory for the first time and realized from reality that what they did in this month's work, they have gained something. What kind of return. Even if Chen Hansheng had expected this, he was surprised by the initiative and alertness of these townspeople.
In the hostel, Sova said seriously, "Mayor Chen, you can rest assured that I will do the work of the members of the mutual aid society. Those of us may not have the knowledge of you, but who is good to us and who is the real villain. , You have everything in your heart. You do n’t need to say anything, just tell us what to do. What you want us to do, we will never be vague. I know that whatever you do with you is for ourselves and for us to save the day Live better! "
Doris on the side also said: "Yeah. Although our women's club is still weak, there is no problem for the sisters to do some logistical work. This month, we really understood a lot of reasons that we did not understand before. For what I live for. "
