Cannon Fodder [Quick Transmigration]

When Xiao Zimo returned to Xiao's mansion, Xiao's mother saw that he was drenched all over, and worried: "What's wrong with you?"

"It fell into the water." Xiao Zimo explained.

Mother Xiao hurriedly ordered: "Hurry up and take the young master down and change into clothes."

"And you, go and tell the kitchen to make some ginger soup."

"Yes, ma'am." The servants jumped into action.

In the evening, when Xiao's father came home, he heard Xiao's mother talking about Xiao Zimo, and asked, "Are you talking about falling into the water? Who fell into the water?"

"Who else is there? It's Zimo." Mother Xiao replied.

Immediately, Xiao's father made a serious face and said displeasedly: "You fell into the water yesterday and fell into the water today, what do you want to do tomorrow!"

"Father—" Xiao Zimo wanted to explain.

"Shut up first, I don't want to listen to you now." Father Xiao said angrily.

"What are you doing, child! He didn't do it on purpose." Mother Xiao interjected.

"Just get used to him, one day you have to pierce the sky to be satisfied." Father Xiao said dissatisfied.

Xiao Zimo hurriedly said, "Father, I met a water bandit today."

"What? Water bandits!" Father Xiao and Mother Xiao said in shock.

"Today I went on a cruise with a few friends, but I ran into water bandits." Xiao Zimo said.

"Didn't I warn you not to go out of the city to play as much as possible, why did you insist on not listening?" Father Xiao said angrily.

"The child didn't go out of the city, but was playing in the city." Xiao Zimo explained.

"Then you didn't hurt anywhere, did you?" Xiao's mother hurriedly pulled Xiao Zimo to size him up.

Xiao Zimo shook his head and said, "It's okay, my friend is accompanied by an expert, so there is no danger."

"What kind of friend is that?" Father Xiao asked.

"I met yesterday." Xiao Zimo said.

"Meet yesterday? Where did you meet?" Father Xiao continued to ask.

"Ah... Oh, father, don't worry about where I met this friend, aren't we talking about water bandits now?" Xiao Zimo changed the subject.

"Who knows if your friend has anything to do with the water bandits?" Father Xiao asked back.

"Impossible, they have absolutely nothing to do with the water bandits!" Xiao Zimo said firmly.

"Why are you so sure? Didn't you just know them yesterday? How can you know their real details?" Father Xiao continued to ask.

Xiao Zimo said helplessly: "Let me tell you the truth, I met water bandits when I went out of the city yesterday, they saved me, and they sent the water bandits to the prison, today they repelled the water bandits, so I have my life Come back, so they will definitely not have anything to do with the water bandits!"

Xiao's father and Xiao's mother were shocked in the same style: "What? You left the city yesterday! You also encountered water bandits!"

"Come on, bring me the whip, I will teach this rebellious son a lesson!" Father Xiao sternly said.

Mother Xiao hurriedly stopped her and said, "You dare, if you dare to hit Zimo, I will never end with you!"

The servant looked at the two masters and didn't dare to move for a while.

"Zimo, why did you hide such a big matter from us yesterday?" Mother Xiao looked at Xiao Zimo worriedly.

Xiao Zimo explained: "I came back safely yesterday, so I didn't want you to worry about me, so I kept it a secret."

Xiao's mother looked at Xiao's father, angrily said: "Zimo is so considerate of us, you still want to beat him!"

"Am I trying to beat him? I want him to learn a lesson and stop running out of the city. Fen City is not peaceful recently!" Father Xiao said helplessly.

"Fencheng is not peaceful? Father, what do you mean?" Xiao Zimo asked.

"Oh!" Father Xiao sighed.

"I didn't want to tell you, but those people are now eyeing Zimo, so I will tell you so that you can know."

"Nowadays the national treasury is empty, and the imperial court wants to vigorously develop commerce and fill the national treasury. It happens that Fencheng is located in a special place, so the imperial court wants to build a dock in Fencheng, so that goods from all over the world can be transported from Fencheng. However, water bandits in Fencheng are rampant, so the imperial court plans Set up a water army in Fencheng to deal with water bandits."

"It's a good thing, but what does it have to do with our family? It's the imperial court that wants to eliminate the water bandits, not our family. Why should those water bandits target Zimo?" Mother Xiao wondered.

"The national treasury is empty, and even if the court wants to build a navy, it will be difficult for the court to do so. Therefore, the court proposed to recruit rich merchants in Fencheng. Now, as the richest man in Fencheng, I naturally become a thorn in the eyes of those water bandits, not to mention that our family had a relationship with water bandits back then. Deep hatred, those water bandits know that I will definitely support the establishment of the navy, so they will attack Zimo." Father Xiao explained.

"So that's the case." Xiao Zimo nodded.

"From tomorrow on, son is not allowed to go out." Mother Xiao took the lead in ordering, she could not bear any harm to Xiao Zimo.

"Mother, I will pay attention when I go out, and I won't let them hurt me." Xiao Zimo begged.

"Your mother did the right thing. From tomorrow onwards, you are not allowed to go out. You will not go out until the water bandits are wiped out." Father Xiao agreed.

"But the water bandits are so easy to wipe out!" Xiao Zimo retorted.

Father Xiao said: "Before I became my father, I was still thinking about how much silver to donate to the court to build a naval army. Now it seems that even if I spend all my family property, I want the court to quickly build a naval army!"

"Master?" Mother Xiao was shocked by his decision.

"It doesn't matter, I was able to build up such a huge family property with my meager strength. Now even if I donate all the family property, I believe that I can still make a comeback!" Father Xiao said firmly.

Xiao Zimo was shocked by his father's expression, he said boldly: "Father, I support you, even if you can't make a comeback, I can make a comeback for you!"

Father Xiao was amused by his words, patted his head, and said: "Just stay at home obediently and don't make trouble for me for the time being."

"Got it." Xiao Zimo said helplessly.

The next day, Father Xiao went out with his men.

Xiao Zimo found Mother Xiao, and before he could speak, he said to Convenience: "Don't beg me, I will let you go out."

"I didn't come to beg my mother to let me go out." Xiao Zimo shook his head.

"Then what do you want to do?" Mother Xiao asked.

"Mother, it's fine if you don't let me go out, why even Shuncai stopped me?" Xiao Zimo asked.

"He is your servant, so naturally he will be where you are." Mother Xiao said.

Xiao Zimo suggested: "Mother, I want Shuncai to send a letter to my friend, is it always possible?"

"What letter?"

"I promised to take Brother Bai and the others to have a good time in Fencheng, but now you don't let me go out, I have to write to explain." Xiao Zimo replied.

"Okay, you can put the letter down, I'll send someone to deliver it later." Mother Xiao nodded.

"My friend only knows me and Shuncai, so why don't you let Shuncai go?" Xiao Zimo begged, "Mother—"

"All right, all right, I've convinced you, let Shuncai go. It just so happens that he knows where your friend lives, and it won't save the people I sent to search for you. It would be even worse if you admit the wrong person." Mother Xiao said helplessly.

"Thank you mother." Xiao Zimo said with a smile.

Then he took out the letter from his pocket, handed it to Shuncai behind him, and said, "You go now."

"Yes, my lord." Shuncai took the letter and left quickly.

Inn

After reading the letter in his hand, Wu Bai asked, "Does your son have anything else to say?"

Shuncai was surprised for a moment, he didn't expect Wu Bai to guess that the young master had left other words, he nodded and said: "Young master asked me to invite you to Xiaofu as guests."

"You don't need to be a guest." Wu Bai shook his head and said, "We will leave Fen City soon."

"Ah? So suddenly?" Shun Cai asked in surprise.

"We came to Fencheng just for fun, and we won't be staying for too long. Remember to say goodbye to your young master for me." Wu Bai explained.

"Then when do you plan to leave? I might as well have an explanation to the young master." Shuncai couldn't help asking.

"Three days later." Wu Bai told the truth.

"Okay, I've made a note." Shun Cai nodded.

Shuncai returned to Xiao's mansion and told Xiao Zimo what Wu Bai had said.

Xiao Zimo jumped up and said excitedly: "What? Brother Bai is leaving Fen City in three days?"

"Yes son, Mr. Bai told me personally, and he asked me to say goodbye to you on his behalf." Shuncai replied.

"Why so suddenly? It's not long since they came to Fencheng. There are still many places to visit in Fencheng. I haven't even taken them there yet!" Xiao Zimo regretted.

Three days later, Wu Bai left Fencheng with several bodyguards in a carriage.

He came to Fencheng this time to make sure that Xiao Zimo was safe. Now that Xiao Zimo was locked up at home, he could leave Fencheng without worrying about his life.

Yuanshen had never traveled far before, although he came out this time with escorts, Wu's parents and Wu's mother must also be worried about him, Wu Bai planned to go back early to make them feel at ease.

The carriage left Fen City slowly, and they were stopped just after leaving the city for less than a mile.

There are about thirty or so people on the other side.

Wu Bai's carriage was forced to stop, and then he heard a muffled sound coming from under the cushion he was sitting on.

"Who are you?" the lead escort asked while putting his hand on the hilt of his waist.

"Hahaha, that's a joke, you guys messed up our plan, and you still want to get out, it's really a big joke!" The other party laughed.

"We don't know you before, when you mess up your plan, you don't want to rant!" The bodyguard retorted.

"I still want to quibble. On the boat that day, if you hadn't interfered with it, we would have successfully captured Xiao Zimo alive." The other party said angrily.

"You are water bandits." The bodyguard said in a deep voice.

"That's right, it's us, and today we're going to make you come and go!" the leader of the water bandits said arrogantly.

The six bodyguards couldn't help but tremble when they saw that there were so many people on the other side.

"Brothers, give it to me!" The water bandit leader said impatiently.

Seeing these water bandits rushing towards them, several bodyguards got off their horses with their swords in hand and began to fight with them.

Wu Bai lifted the curtain of the carriage, exposing himself to the water bandits.

"There are still people in the carriage!" The water bandits exclaimed.

"Yes, I almost forgot about this kid, brothers, let me take him down!"

Soon, water bandits rushed towards Wu Bai.

Seeing Wu Bai exposing himself, the six bodyguards couldn't help crying secretly, but they were entangled and couldn't get away to rescue Wu Bai, so they could only helplessly watch the water bandits slash at Wu Bai.

Just when they couldn't help but wanted to turn their heads and didn't want to see Wu Bai being chopped down, they saw the water bandit who ran to the carriage first and flew backwards in a straight line.

For a moment, the scene was silent.

Those water bandits who were rushing towards Wu Bai all stopped in their tracks, not daring to move forward.

Everyone looked at Wu Bai, and then at the water bandit lying on the ground twitching, their eyes were full of disbelief.
