Chapter 4 Showdown

"When did you find out?"

His voice was gloomy, as if the sky had weighed down, making him breathless.

Mu Zhenliu tidied up the bowls and chopsticks that he had just stolen, and then straightened his robe and stood up: "Which one are you asking about?"

Dai Baobei said: "I have no injuries on my face, but you didn't show any abnormality, obviously you already knew that my injuries were fake."

Mu Zhenliu said modestly: "It's just a guess, not sure."

"Where did I show my flaws?" Dai Baobao had an aggressive attitude, "Could it be that you have learned the disguise technique?"

Mu Zhenliu shook his head and said, "Such a mysterious technique is only heard of, but never seen."

"Could it be that I'm not pretending?"

"You cry terribly, your eyes are painful, very realistic." Mu Zhenliu saw that he was getting more and more impatient, and took the initiative to explain, "You have only been out for a while, and the blood from the wound has solidified, as if it has been two or three hours. Your Although the disguise technique is exquisite, it is at the wrong time."

Dai Baobei thought to himself: That's how it is.It's no wonder that the two disguise techniques I've learned can almost be faked, and they are still considered superficial by that person.

Mu Zhenliu said: "I also have something to ask, please enlighten me."

"Say."

"I don't know what kind of enmity Linzhuang Zhuang has with his family teacher, but he wants to tease me like this."

Dai Baobei said: "How do you know that this place is Linzhuang?"

Mu Zhenliu said: "When I woke up, I wasn't very hungry, and I thought I hadn't been in a coma for a long time. Judging by the weather, it should not exceed four hours. Within a radius of three hundred miles of Fengliang Town, there is only one in Linzhuang. Cells connected by bridges."

Dai Baobei snorted coldly, "You know a lot."

"Fengliang Town is only more than [-] miles away from the place where I went to work, so I naturally want to inquire about it."

Dai Baobei said: "You know a lot, but you don't know why I don't like you. You thought it was Shen Zhenghe, but it was actually your own fault!"

Mu Zhenliu was stunned: "Me?"

Seeing his puzzled expression, Dai Baobei didn't explain, looked at the wound on his forehead and shook his head, "It's a pity! A person like you only kowtowed and sprained his feet. It's really cheap. A person like you who breaks promises and ruins women , should have been bruised, hacked into pieces, and ridiculed by all the people in the world!" He wanted him to taste what it was like to be betrayed by someone he trusted, but he never thought that he would be found out first.

Mu Zhenliu lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked at the third sister behind Dai Baobao, and asked in surprise, "Miss Huang?"

The third sister was shocked, and looked up at him, her eyes were full of resentment.

Dai Baobei said: "Thank you for remembering!"

Mu Zhenliu lowered his head and smiled wryly.

"You married her with your fingertips, it was an agreement made by your father Lingtang when he was alive. You did not abide by this agreement because you were not filial and did not believe it! You were a Jinshi in high school. You should have married her, but you wrote a letter to regret your marriage. You, bleeding head and blood, were almost humiliated by traitors because of your injustice!" Dai Baobei said loudly, "Compared with what she suffered back then, what you have suffered today is nothing more than a drop in the bucket! What else do you have to say?"

Mu Zhenliu looked ashamed: "everything my baby said makes sense, I have nothing to say."

Dai Baobei's face twisted slightly: "Since you know your mistake, you should kneel three times and knock nine times to welcome her through the door."

Mu Zhenliu didn't speak, just looked at the third sister accommodatingly.

Third Sister's face turned pale, and tears fell like strings.

Dai Baobei was furious and said, "You don't want to?"

"If you don't want to, you can't."

Dai Baobei said: "Are you unable, or are you reluctant to part with your sweetheart?" He turned his back to Third Sister and made a "tall" mouth.

Mu Zhenliu was silent for a while and said: "This is exactly what I can't do."

The third sister uttered a "wow", covered her face and cried away.

Dai Baobei snorted coldly: "You can't, and I can't either! You can just stay here." He flung his sleeves and left, and the strong man who played a play and beat him before immediately closed the door heavily and locked it.

Mu Zhenliu picked up the chopsticks on the table and tapped the bowl lightly, sighing silently.

He was only locked up for one night. On the second day, the strong man held a whip and half threatened and half threatened him to work, sweeping the floor, doing laundry, cooking, and chopping firewood. .Mu Zhenliu was exhausted from exhaustion, his limbs were weak, and his sprained foot was limping badly, so he gritted his teeth and persisted without saying a word.It was not until midnight that the strong man mercifully gave him a cold steamed bun and a bowl of water.

Mu Zhenliu, who has been hungry for a whole day, is not picky. He sits at the door and picks it up.

The next day, the strong man sent him to work as usual, but when Mu Zhenliu returned to the house, he found an extra bowl of braised pork that was still warm on the table.After that, for three consecutive days, there was meat waiting every night.

On the fifth day, Mu Zhenliu turned back early on the pretext of going to the bathroom, and he saw a figure sneaking out of the room.

"Miss Huang." He stopped, five or six steps away from her.

The third sister stopped, turned her body, and said, "I'll come to the kitchen to see what to eat."

Mu Zhenliu said, "Thank you."

Her figure froze slightly, and she said for a long time, "It's all my fault that I put Mr. Mu in danger."

Mu Zhenliu said: "It's my own fault."

"You," she turned around boldly, looking at him shyly and stubbornly with bright reddish eyes, "Is she better than me...?"

Mu Zhenliu said: "The appearance is not as good as Miss, and the personality is not as good as Miss."

"Then what do you like about her?"

Mu Zhenliu said: "We are like-minded."

The third sister bit her lower lip: "You, how do you know that you and I...are not..." It was already cheeky to ask such a question, and she turned her head in embarrassment.

Mu Zhenliu hesitated for a while, and said slowly: "I have been classmates with him for three years, and we know each other very well."

"Classmate, he, he is..." Third Sister looked at him in shock.

Mu Zhenliu nodded slightly.

"Get some rest earlier!" Third Sister hurriedly said, and ran away in small steps.

After her figure completely disappeared, Mu Zhenliu took a step towards the kitchen.Sure enough, there was a bowl of braised pork on the table, still very hot.

"If you're so straightforward, you're not afraid that she won't think about it, and there will be something wrong?"

Dai Baobei stood where he had been standing before, looking at him in the moonlight.

Mu Zhenliu turned back and said, "With you here, I definitely won't just sit back and watch the tragedy happen."

Dai Baobei snorted coldly: "She is your fiancée, if she dies, you will force her to die, what does it have to do with me?"

"Since it has nothing to do with you, why did you trap me here?"

"Of course it's because I don't like you!"

Mu Zhenliu smiled, lowered his head and squeezed his meat.

Dai Baobei sneered and said: "The owner who just rejected this bowl of meat, you can eat it with peace of mind!"

"Should I ignore it?"

"How dare you!" While Dai Baobei was speaking, he had already walked into the kitchen, snatched his chopsticks, put a large piece of meat into his mouth, and then spat it out with a "poof", "pee pee pee" repeatedly Spit a few mouthfuls, "Is this added Coptis chinensis?"

Mu Zhenliu's expression remained unchanged, he took the chopsticks in his hand, and continued to stuff them into his mouth mouthful.

Dai Baobao looked at him differently from before: "You can eat it?"

Mu Zhenliu said: "As you said, I have already rejected the marriage, how can I refuse the kindness again."

"Not bad, it should be like this!" Dai Baobei hooked the stool with his feet, sat down beside him and watched him eat, and watched Mu Zhenliu's face without changing his expression, and then said, "I see you a bit pleasing to the eye now." gone."

Mu Zhenliu was about to answer, but was interrupted by a strong man rushing in: "Outside, there are many officers and soldiers!"

Dai Baobei crossed his legs: "It's not the first time, why make such a fuss?"

The strong man said: "It's different this time, there are many people here."

"One thousand?" Dai Baby frowned.

The strong man shook his head: "Twenty thousand!"

Fengliang Town is not an important border town, so it is naturally impossible to mobilize 2 troops, within a radius of hundreds of miles, only Pingbo City where he went to have such troops.And the only ones who could mobilize [-] troops in Pingbo City were Chief Soldier Tang Chizhou and Deputy Chief Soldier Yang Guangyi.Even so, the commander-in-chief of the border city was not allowed to mobilize troops without an order, but he didn't know what was going on.

Mu Zhenliu was curious, and when Dai Baobao followed the strong man out, he followed cautiously.

Dai Baobei noticed that he was following him, but did not chase him away, allowing him to follow him all the way out of Zhuangzi.

Outside the village, the lights were brightly lit. Dozens of armored soldiers stood on both sides. A white-faced scholar stood at the door, holding a cattail fan, shaking it once and for all. When he saw Dai Baobao and others coming out, he smiled slightly and said, : "In Chizhou of the Lower Tang Dynasty, I am the commander-in-chief of Pingbo City. It has been adjacent to Linzhuang for many years, and I have been visiting in the future. Please forgive me, Mr. Susha."
