Chapter 92 - Campfire BBQ
Now inside and outside the military camp, the most empty and clean place is the martial arts field.
At the beginning of the summer, with Raven and Bian Ding, the game was lined up. In the area assigned to each bonfire, the sunset was early in the west. Gu Weiyi finally found Xia Chu in the darkness.
“Doctor Yi, Old General Zhao and His Royal Highness King Mo are looking for you.” Gu Weiyi still saw the bonfire burning in the martial arts field, and came to check, only to see Xia Chu inadvertently.
“Well, go and invite them all over, anyway, it’s time to eat, everyone is hungry.” Xia Chu said without stopping the work of stringing chickens in his hands, without raising his head.
Gu Weiyi nodded when he heard the words, then turned around and ran back.
Now, he has become accustomed to Xia Chu ignoring orders…
About a stick of incense, General Zhao led Xiao Mubai and his descendants all the way over.
Xia Chu greeted him and said to Han Sa, “Bring King Mo’s army here too.”
Han Sa wanted to say that he was afraid that it would not be enough to eat, but when he looked around, under the starlight, the martial arts field was filled with wild game.
Xia Chu said to Gu Weiyi again: “Bring those defenders of Qingcheng here too.”
Gu Weiyi responded and went on.
Seeing Xiao Mubai nodded, Han Sa bowed and went down.
Xia Chu led the group to the middle of the bonfire and sat down. Xiao Mubai looked at the birds and beasts in the ground and couldn’t help but snorted: “You’re afraid that you will give Tracer all the game on the mountain.”
“Well, I’ve made several trips up and down the mountain. This is because I’m afraid that your King Mo army will come and our Zhao family will not be able to eat enough.” Xia Chu said while igniting the fire.
Xiao Mubai frowned upon hearing this.
“It’s all good men from the Xiao country, what are you and me?” Xiao Mubai felt inexplicably displeased when he mentioned you, our words.
“That’s right, His Royal Highness King Mo has a heart. The veterans who were specially ordered this time, Han Yangcheng’s reinforcements are even more enthusiastic and brave.” General Zhao also almost said that most of the soldiers that King Mo brought this time were the former Zhao family’s army. Abruptly changed his mouth.
Xiao Mubai nodded to Old General Zhao to indicate that he really had this idea when he ordered troops.
While speaking, the army came over in a mighty manner. Because they had just won the battle, everyone was in a good mood, and some of them were singing songs with broken gongs.
Xiao Mubai turned his head coldly, and King Mo’s army immediately fell silent, his prestige was obvious.
“Don’t be so serious, His Royal Highness, let them relax today.” Xia Chu shrugged Xiao Mubai and said.
Xiao Mubai looked back at his thin shoulders.
At this moment, he is still swiping with his arm from time to time, and there is no disgust in his heart.
He looked suspicious, but his tone was warm and said, “Don’t be cautious tonight, just sit down and eat.”
The officers and soldiers smiled again, and they all found their seats and sat down.
Ruan Zhaohui, Huang Weizhou, Sang Hanming, Duan Fayuan, the former veteran generals of the Zhao family, naturally walked to the middle and sat down next to Zhao Shuangquan, and Lou Hongfang, the cavalry commander of King Mo’s army, also sat down next to them.
In an instant, a circle was formed.
At this time, Raven also came over, walked to Xia Chu’s side, and looked at Xiao Mubai with cold eyes.
At the beginning of Xia, General Zhao sat on the left, Xiao Mubai on the right, and Raven’s expression clearly told Xiao Mubai, you, move me to the side.
The two of them didn’t speak, but the atmosphere suddenly became strange.
Everyone in the circle felt cold, and the evil spirit suddenly appeared.
Even the surrounding soldiers who were far away noticed the tension in the atmosphere, stopped talking and looked over.
Xia Chu looked at Xiao Mubai’s darkening face, and couldn’t help but look at Old General Zhao.
Old General Zhao was a very thoughtful person, he moved to the left and waved at the raven: “Come here, clothes knife, this time, thanks to you for leaving the raven to me, you can Are you willing to keep him in the army to fight?”
Xia Chu twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard the words, and said to Old General Zhao: “I’m afraid this won’t work, I guess he won’t be able to keep his temper.”
Old General Zhao sighed regretfully.
Xia Chu quickly pulled Raven and sat between him and General Zhao.
The atmosphere was finally eased by such an interruption, and everyone let out a sigh of turbidity. The scene just now was too scary.
“This is the one, but let Han Yang Raven be there and not teach Huma to go back to the mountains?” Xiao Mubai asked coldly.
Xia Chu nodded, and then whispered to him: “Raven has a withdrawn personality. Except me, no one will buy it. His Royal Highness King Mo, don’t take it to heart.”
Xiao Mubai nodded, indicating that he didn’t care.
Xia Chu felt that his whole body was swept away by the raven’s eyes, and he could faintly hear a cold snort.
Only then did he realize that even if he spoke in such a low voice, people who shouldn’t have heard can still hear it…
Xia Chu shrugged at the raven, stuck out his tongue, smiled awkwardly, quickly pulled out a roasted pheasant, tore off a leg and handed it to him.
The raven took it naturally and ate it expressionlessly.
Xiao Mubai was a little stunned when he saw the interaction between Xia Chu and Raven just now.
He has seen many kinds of appearances in early Xia, but he has never seen such innocent playfulness.
The first time he saw Xiachu was on the second floor of Yinweizhai, in a private room with a strong autumn atmosphere.
He had just returned to Beijing that day, and Xu Wenlan took care of him and insisted on taking him to drink.
He pushed open the window boredly, and it was the first time he saw the pretentious Xia Chu, he waved his hand at Su Qian’an, and said very romanticly that he would take him to the brothel.
The young man had been drinking, his complexion was white and red, tender and dripping, although his youthful appearance had not faded, but his tone was old-fashioned.
The second time was at the family banquet in the palace. He was wearing a delicate blue robe with white auspicious clouds embroidered on the hem of his clothes.
He was pulled by Mu Hong to sit next to him at the time. Xiao Mubai took a close look at Xia Chu for the first time, and even made fun of him.
The meeting in the palace originally just thought early Xia was interesting.
It was not until the Lantern Festival, under the dazzling lights, that Xiao Mubai really took a different look at this young man who was dressed in elegant blue clothes.
And when he was in the military tent in Yucheng, he smelled the unique herbal smell of Xia Chu.
His heart was shaking.
His face was unwavering.
All these years, because I know my time is short.
So, he planned a lot.
In order that after he leaves, the mother-in-law and Mu Hong can live in peace.
Therefore, he has long been accustomed to keeping everything under control.
At the beginning of Xia, it surprised him again and again.
That unexpected feeling made him a little unhappy, and in the midst of his displeasure, it also brought with it unexplainable expectations.
Just like just now, Xia Chu was stunned when he saw Xiao Mubai, and he tore off another chicken leg and handed it to him.
He didn’t realize it until he took a bite.
Actually.
Really are.
It’s delicious…
He couldn’t help staring at Xia Chu.
Looking forward to it, how many surprises does he have?
