Chapter 687 Decent Person
“Entrusted by others?”
Hearing this, Hu Ma couldn't help but feel shocked, even more surprised than when Miss White Wine revealed her true identity.
Since she had already guessed her identity, why didn't she say anything?
Who else has such a big face that can persuade a cautious person like her to protect herself like this?
Hearing the urgency in his voice, Miss White Wine actually seemed to be hesitating. She was silent for a long time before whispering: "That person once asked me what my evaluation of you was. The answer I gave at that time was ...a person worth trusting.”
"Actually, I'm not sure whether this sentence is completely correct. Maybe it's because I'm cautious by nature. It's hard for me to completely trust a person. I've also observed and inquired about you from many places."
"Erguotou has done similar things, but I have to admit that I have no reason not to believe you. Sometimes I feel that your silly name is not a joke."
"As for Erguotou, do you really think that he aroused so many people's suspicions just because of a misunderstanding?"
"No, that's just because he does have more doubts than you!"
Hearing Miss White Wine's inquiry, Hu Ma felt a very strange feeling in her heart.
It was as if a certain empty spot in my heart was suddenly hit.
As a reincarnated person, he is suspicious by nature. In the beginning, he always wanted to hide his differences from others. This idea still exists today, but as the cooperation between them deepens, he has to start solving certain problems. I looked at it squarely and thought about exploring.
However, there are indeed doubts about him, so Brother Erguotou, is it true that there are some things that he has not said frankly?
Plus, let Miss White Wine take care of her own people…
"You have done so much for the reincarnated people."
While he was pondering, Miss White Wine whispered: "But what I need to remind you is, don't think that this time the reincarnation gathering is held, everyone can really do one thing together."
"A group of reincarnated people are hiding and did not participate in the Guazhou rally. They have not even shown up until now."
"Among them are several people we met when we went to Beijing and trusted our lives with our lives."
"Are there any reincarnated people hiding?"
Miss White Wine's words made Hu Ma feel strange. Due to time issues, the reincarnated people were scattered all over the place. This time, the meeting did not find all the reincarnated people. That was for sure.
Until now, Miss Red Wine has a responsibility, which is to let more reincarnations join in, but what Miss White Wine said is clearly not the case.
What she wanted to say was that someone knew about the gathering but was still hiding in the dark?
"Get your **** straight!"
Miss White Wine sighed quietly in the silence and said: "Our abilities are not enough to see through everything."
"Perhaps, when you figure it out for yourself, the person who asked me to help you will show up and meet you."
"yes."
Hu Ma noticed her thoughts and nodded slowly, saying, "I will set off tomorrow to return to Laoyin Mountain."
"Before that, I would like to borrow something from you."
After exiting the natal temple, Hu Ma thought for a while, then suppressed these distracting thoughts and fell into a deep sleep.
When they got up the next day, Zhou Datong and Li Wazi, who had long been looking forward to returning to the village to celebrate the New Year and having a good time, had already piled the New Year's goods they had purchased on the donkey cart, and refused to waste a moment for fear of Can't catch up with the annual sacrifice in the village.
But Hu Ma still made them wait for two hours. First, she wrote a few handwritten letters and asked Xiao Hongtang to send them to Aunt Zhang and Grandma Qi. Then she saw a white cat appear on the courtyard wall with a mouth Holding a bell in his mouth, he squatted there with his eyes narrowed.
Hu Ma took the bell, put it away carefully, took out a strip of bacon and chirped twice.
The white cat gave him a cold look, turned around and ran away.
Hu Ma was helpless, so she stuffed the dried bacon into her mouth, chewed it slowly, and with the sound of a whip, she drove the donkey cart and drove straight to the depths of Laoyin Mountain.
In previous years, he went back with Datong, Li Wazi, Zhou Liang, and Zhao Zhu, but this year, Zhou Datong and Li Wazi followed him, while Zhou Liang and Zhao Zhuzheng went to fight with the food security army and were not in the town.
However, the opponent this time is not very powerful, so it shouldn't waste much time. Before setting off, these two people told Zhou Datong that they would go back to the village directly from the army.
It was already approaching the New Year's Eve, and the New Year would be celebrated in a few days. They did not dare to delay, so they rushed back day and night.
Sure enough, when we returned to the village, it was already a lively scene. The old patriarch and the adults from various families visited the village entrance three times a day. Hu Ma only came back once in the middle of the year, so he was not so excited. Zhou Datong and Li Wazi were excited. Incessantly.
Zhou Liang and Zhao Zhu actually returned to the village two days earlier than them.
Both of them came back riding big horses, wearing iron armor, and even brought a few soldiers to serve them, which was quite majestic.
Originally, chickens and cows were going to be slaughtered in the village soon, and a big banquet was held for the two of them. But they firmly refused and wanted to wait until Hu Ma, Zhou Datong, Li Wazi and others came back before they could eat this banquet.
The people in the village opened their eyes when they saw the majesty of Zhou Liang and Zhao Zhu. They felt like they were in a dream. And hearing that they were so determined, they thought that Hu Ma was more prosperous with Zhou Datong and Li Wazi. Of course Just looking forward to it.
But I never thought that these three people would come back driving a donkey cart and pulling New Year's goods as they did in previous years. They were a little surprised and started talking privately.
Only the second master still didn't dislike it. Seeing Zhou Datong and Li Wazi being picked up respectively, he took the Hu family back to their thatched cottage and said, "Did your kid open his mouth, or did he already know it? "
"Then, the boys from the Zhou family and the Zhao family were not as good as you in their skills and skills in the past. How come they have become officials outside after not seeing each other for a few years? My God, there are still people waiting for me when I return to the village!"
"It's not just the two of them who have become officials."
Hu Ma smiled and said: "Datong has also achieved military merit, but he just doesn't want to stay in the army."
The second master was even more surprised when he heard this. He quickly lowered his voice and said, "What about you?"
Hu Ma thought for a while and said: "I have entered the Taoism, devoted myself to learning my skills, and gained some climate. This can actually be regarded as a glorious ancestor, right?"
The second master said mercilessly: "That definitely can't be counted. Isn't the purpose of learning skills just to be an official? That's comparable to the prestige of the stewards of the Blood Food Gang, let me tell you!"
As he spoke, he leaned forward and warned: "Your second master, I am knowledgeable. In recent years, he must be the incense master and shopkeeper in the Blood Food Gang, but this is because the world is not peaceful. Wait for the emperor I am in charge of the world, and in terms of dignity, I would rather be an official!”
"Don't imitate those messy people, follow the art of martial arts, martial arts, etc... You are so lucky, how many of them are going to the martial arts?"
"No matter how famous the Jianghu people are, no matter how powerful they are, they still can't get enough of it!"
Hu Ma was speechless. What Second Master said was really sincere...
Now when it comes to their true identities, they are really not as good as Zhou Liang and Zhao Zhu. Although they are not great generals, at best they are just small bosses under General Baoliang. Only when General Baoliang becomes the king can they be considered. Little general.
But one thing is to say, the official positions they hold now are still real. After all, General Baoliang did not claim the title of king. He was nominally the general of Mingzhou City. Although he was self-proclaimed, it was recognized by all parties.
Therefore, he is actually an official of the Yi Dynasty now, and although the Yi Dynasty only has a little reputation now, in the eyes of the people in the mountains, he is much better than those Caotou Kings.
"Second Master, I understand what you are saying, but I still feel that I have the ability to go this way."
Hu Ma understood this, so she just smiled and said to the second master: "No matter who it is, there are finally two officials and majestic generals in our village. Isn't it really the time to sacrifice the mountain?"
"The earlier the better, of course, to sacrifice the mountain. I was just about to tell you about this."
The second master had been talking about this for who knows how many years, but when he heard that it was really going to be planned, he seemed a little uneasy and whispered: "There are more than two generals. In fact, one is enough..."
"To put it into perspective, I can actually see that these two boys are not really great generals, but with this title, everything will be easy to handle!"
"There is nothing we can do now. The world is not peaceful. There is war and chaos outside. More and more people are running into the mountains. The sooner we do the sacrifice to the mountains, the greater the blessing will be. There will be peace in the village. What else can we do? No matter what calamity, it won't come here!”
Hu Ma saw that the second master had great ideas in this matter, so he didn't worry about it. Just listening to him talk about the disaster, he frowned slightly and whispered: "Second master, I was young before, so I couldn't remember many things. ”
"I just heard that my...father also prevented the disaster and disappeared?"
"Your dad?"
Upon hearing Hu Ma's words, the second master became a little lower-pitched, sighed softly, and said: "Actually, I'm not very familiar with him. He didn't live in the village for long. He's usually taciturn, and he's not very talkative. Talk to people.”
"And during the years he was in the village, he would go out from time to time, and he would be away for ten days and a half..."
"Of course, although we are not familiar with him, everyone in the village knows this old Hushan. He is a man who not only helped our village solve the famine, but I was the only one who dared to go out to fight against the black storm."
"Black storm disaster?"
Hu Ma had heard of it a long time ago, but still wanted to hear what the second master had to say, and whispered: "What on earth is that?"
"well…"
The second master sighed and said: "The legend is that the people under the command of Lord Yama are not enough, so he came up to order some troops..."
"You young people are all lucky. It's time to catch up. There has been peace for more than ten years and there has been no black wind disaster. But in the past, black wind disasters would happen every three to five years. Once..."
"Your father, what he blocked was the last black wind disaster we have ever seen in our village..."
