Chapter 121 Non-thing in the pool
Xue Rengui, with thick eyebrows, big eyes and square face, a pair of eyes is like a cold pool in late autumn, the waves are deep and obscure, silent and deep. In terms of himself, he is comparable to Qin Mubai. Although he is dressed in plain white cloth with mending flowers, it is difficult to hide the martial artist's romanticity naturally exuded from his body.
Everyone present has a common feeling - the person in front of him is definitely not a thing in the pool! How can an ordinary village man have such a chic and calm temperament?
Hearing Qin Mubai's opening remarks, Xue Rengui should have been surprised, but his expression did not change at all. He still hugged his fist and said, "You call him that, but do you recognize him?" Please forgive me for my forgetfulness and I can't remember where I met you for a while.
"You and I have met for the first time in my life, but I have already heard your name." Qin Mubai didn't lie in the previous sentence, but he immediately began to make up nonsense with a smile on his face. "I came to Jiangzhou soon and heard people say that Longmen has talents, hiding in the cold mountains and shooting swallows. Isn't that what you're talking about?"
"Oh?" Xue Rengui blinked a few times in surprise, "In the next four walls of the grass family, don't you think anyone can recognize my name?"
The meaning of Xue Rengui's words is very clear. Without introducing him, you can see that Qin Mubai, who is standing in front of him now, is not rich or noble, and is by no means an idle person. Looking at this situation, it seemed that he came specially against him, so Xue Rengui's heart was full of doubts.
Qin Mubai smiled relaxedly: "Look at this situation, Brother Xue is quite wary of us! Let me tell you this. It was just in the morning that my two subordinates offended you because they didn't know Zun Yan. So I specially brought them here to compensate you.
The two pawns behind Qin Mubai were stunned and almost vomited blood. But the boss has already thrown this out. How dare they talk too much? So he endured his grievance and stepped forward and bowed to Xue Rengui's neat fist: "Xue Zhuangshi, I've been offended!"
"How dare you, it's arrogant and reckless, death, death!" In this situation, Xue Rengui was embarrassed to hold a hostile attitude and hurriedly hugged his fist in return.
"Brother Xue must be very surprised about his identity and origin at this moment, right?" Qin Mubai smiled and said, "I just got to your house, but my sister-in-law didn't give up and promised to entertain me for dinner. Haha, Brother Xue, my two disappointing subordinates haven't hit back the wild goose. We are still hungry here. Do you mind if I go to your house for a meal?
"This..." Xue Rengui smiled awkwardly, and his face turned a little red. Then he smiled and said, "If you don't dislike the poor grass and the poor diet, please go!"
"Good!" Qin Mubai stroked his palm happily: "Let's go!"
Xue Rengui turned around and picked up the Fang Tianhua halberd and walked to Qin Mubai and others. He pointed forward and said, "Speaking guests, please!"
Qin Mubai looked up and down at the halberd and said, "God soldier!"
"Brother Tai praised it... I'm poor, and the only thing I have is this weapon." Xue Rengui smiled a little ashamed and said, "Therefore, even if he is so hungry, he is not willing to sell it."
"Heroes don't ask where they come from, and the world can't bully young people." Qin Mubai smiled and said, "Brother Xue is now a tiger falling in the Pingyang dragon swimming in the shallows. Don't have to underestimate yourself. With Brother Xue's ability, there will be a brilliant day of achievements in the future! I am a layman who wanders in the officialdom. I don't have any ability, but I have made a few friends who can do things. If Brother Xue wants to show his defeat, he can introduce him. I just don't know if Brother Xue is willing to make this vulgar friend?
Xue Rengui is a little confused and doesn't know why the strange stranger in front of him is so enthusiastic about him as a poor man? But the other party obviously has no malice. He has no wealth and no name, and there is nothing for the other party to win. What's more, it's not a bad thing to reach out and not to hit a smiling person, and multiple friends are not a bad thing!
Thinking of this, Xue Rengui laughed cheerfully: "Xue has been poor for half a lifetime without a friend, and even his relatives have been far away from me. Today, you won't give up. Xue is willing to make you a friend!"
"Okay, Brother Xue is cool!" Qin Mubai grabbed Xue Rengui's wrist and laughed, "Let's go. I'm really hungry. I really want to try the goose stewed by my sister-in-law!"
Watching Qin Mubai take Xue Rengui's hand and strode away, several pawns were stunned. He muttered, "What's wrong with the general today? Man thought he was here to help us come up and find this guy's bad luck, but why did he make us lose face and make friends with him?
Chen Yan held her sword and said coldly with no expression on her face, "Thanks to you for following him for so long, you can't even see it. Your general is a person who loves and cherishes talent. He took a fancy to Xue Rengui's martial arts talent, so he condescened and made friends with him, which was nothing more than to take it for his own use.
"You don't have to wrong ourselves so much, do you?" A pawn curled his lips unconvinced and said, "Baiqi is the royal royal leader. It's not good to be beaten by a rural villager, but he actually apologized to others in turn, right? If this spreads out, it will greatly damage the prestige!"
"Humph!" Chen Yan sneered disdainfully, "So he can be a general. You can only be a pawn for a lifetime."
"What do you mean?" The pawn stared at Chen Yan angrily and shouted.
"Think about it with your own brain!" Chen Yan said casually and walked forward, "The politeness and humility to the weak and kindness are the mind and demeanor that a strong person should have. Don't you see that Xue Rengui was pulled close by your general at once? ...It's like, I don't want to bully you now. But it's not because I want to get close to you, but because I don't.
"You! ...Bad bitch!"
"But what she said... seems to make sense. My general has indeed never bullied weak and good people, and he has always been very polite and caring for us. An arrogant person like Changsun Xun has lost his temper. No wonder all the brothers in the camp are convinced of him..."
After a while, in the cave of Xue Rengui's house.
"It turns out that you are the famous Baiqi envoy Qin Mubai?" Xue Rengui was a little surprised to hear that Qin Mubai reported his home. He looked up and down in disbelief and hugged his fist and said, "It's really disrespectful! I have heard the name of Qin Mubai in Chang'an for a long time. It turned out that in Xue's impression, he always thought that Qin Mubai was a strong man about 40 years old. Unexpectedly, he was so young, two years younger than Xue!"
"Haha! It's just the blessing of my father to borrow the light of the family, coupled with good luck, so it's relatively smooth in his official career. It can only prove that I have been reincarnated well. In terms of real talent and practical learning, I am far worse than Brother Xue. Qin Mubai said with a smile.
"General Qin is too modest." Xue Rengui said, "Although I am a man of the mountains, I have heard a lot about Baiqi. If you don't have extraordinary talent, it's a delusion to want to enter Baiqi, let alone become one of the Baiqi envoys.
At this time, Chen Yan sneered and said, "Two big men, one by one, praise each other's modesty, and vulgar? Brother, why don't you just say to yourself that you want to give Xue Rengui a background and let him go with you? If he wants to, it's good to have a wishful thinking; if he doesn't want to, it's not a bad thing to meet and be friends.
"Haha! You're still cheerful!" Qin Mubai slapped him on his thigh and smiled, "Brother Xue, what my sister-in-law said is what I want to say. How about it? Think about it?"
"This..." After all, it was a little sudden, and Xue couldn't hold it for a while.
The people present didn't say much and looked at Xue Rengui quietly.
At this time, Xue Rengui's wife, Liu Shi, came forward and said to Xue Rengui, "Rengui, don't you often sigh and say that you don't meet? Although the cheap concubine has never seen the world, General Qin is not a bad person. Nowadays, the nobleman takes the initiative to come and sincerely help you. Don't you agree? In the future, you will make a career with your own ability, and you will make a negative in your life. At that time, you can also repay General Qin's kindness to you.
"My sister-in-law doesn't have to persuade him." Qin Mubai smiled and said, "As the saying goes, men are afraid of entering the wrong industry and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. This matter is related to the future of Brother Xue I. Maybe he has changed dramatically in his life since then. Whether it is expensive or cheap, it is a blessing or a curse. At present, only God knows. It's good for him to think more.
"General Qin is so proud of his love that he is very frightened. I should have agreed to thank the general for his kindness... But as the general said, it's about Xue's life. Can you allow Xue to think about it clearly before replying? Xue Rengui picked up his fist and said seriously.
"Good. The wise man plans and then moves. I'm not in a hurry, and I won't rush you. Qin Mubai nodded and smiled, "When Brother Xue thinks it over, come to me. I may stay in Jishan County in the past month or two. It's easy for you to find me. If I leave, I will go back to Chang'an. If you ask a little, it's easy to find me.
"Good. General Qin is a big celebrity. If I go to visit you next time, I will definitely find you. Xue Rengui said with gratitude and a little shame, "I apologize, General Qin. Next... I have to think about it clearly before I can reply to you."
"It should be." Qin Mubai smiled calmly and said, "If it were me, an unfamiliar stranger suddenly came to me and said that he would guide me a way, and I would hesitate. Brother Xue, don't worry. As my sister-in-law said, if you want, it's good to have a wishful thinking. If you don't want to, it's not a bad thing to meet each other and be friends.
"Good! Anyway, I'm going to make friends with General Qin!" Xue Rengui raised a bowl of wine and laughed happily, "General Qin, please, I'll give you a bowl!"
"Is Brother Xue still calling me General?" Qin Mubai smiled and said, "Since we are friends, there is no superiority or inferiority between each other."
"Okay, Brother Qin, please! - Everyone, please!"
"Do it!"
After dinner, Qin Mubai and others said goodbye to Xue Rengui and returned to themselves.
"That Xue Rengui is so ignorant of praise! A poor man in the mountains is so big! The general wants to take him away and give him a background to make him a hundred riders, but he still has to think about it! Where did he take Baiqi? Which of the people in the world doesn't want to be crazy? This person must be stupid or stupid!" The hundred riders finally couldn't help but feel resentful and scolded one after another.
"What do you know!" Qin Mubai shouted and scolded. Everyone stopped talking and closed their mouths and retreated.
Qin Mubai thought that if Qianlong is as easy to catch as loach, then he is not Qianlong!
