Chapter 123 Testing each other
Xiao Ji looked at Mo Lengzhou's back and asked Yan Tianyou, "Is he your village chief?"
"Why should I tell you? As a prisoner, you'd better not ask about our Mojia Village." Yan Tianyou said with averted eyes.
It seemed that looking at Xiao Ji for one more moment would dirty his eyes. In fact, Yan Tianyou envied the armor on Xiao Ji.
It’s a pity that Xiao Ji didn’t know!
Seeing the young man's disdainful look, the surging emotions in his heart roared and assaulted his chest, making him unable to say anything.
"Tianyou, take the bowls to the kitchen and go back to rest early." Gongxi Leqing's voice sounded at the door.
"Okay, Brother Gongxi, you should also go to bed early." Yan Tianyou said respectfully.
"Brother Gongxi?" Xiao Ji looked towards the door in surprise, "Master? You...you..." Is he a human or a ghost?
Xiao Ji was extremely surprised. Mojia Village was so strange. All the people here were familiar people from his childhood memories.
But they look only a few years older than me. What's going on?
My grandfather said that in recent decades, the royal family of Nanzhao has been fighting fiercely, facing internal and external troubles.
The drought has left the people hungry, and the shadow of the enemy in the northern desert is lurking in the darkness, ready to attack Nanzhao at any time.
Xiao Ji was already facing invisible pressure in his heart, and now the confusing people in Mojia Village made him dumbfounded!
"Master? You've got the wrong person! My clan leader left the capital when he was five and never returned. I can't be your master."
Gongxi Leqing said calmly that he knew the man in front of him had mistaken him for his father, but he would not tell him.
Leng Zhou now has a wife, so he is not in a hurry to interrogate the general who led the troops to surround their Mojia Village.
Then I will scare him first, and after he collapses, he will naturally tell me who is behind the scenes!
"Legend has it that the young head of the Gongxi family took his eldest son out for an outing and never returned home?"
"..."
"Hey! Are you the eldest son of the Gongxi family back then?" Xiao Ji took a deep breath and asked tentatively.
"........."
"Why don't you speak? Tell me what's going on?"
"So what if it is? So what if it isn't?" Gongxi Leqing said in an annoying tone.
"This general is here on the orders of King Chen to find the descendants of the Mo family. Do you know if there are people from your Mo family village outside?"
The impatient Xiao Ji accidentally revealed King Chen, and Gongxi Leqing said calmly: "They are just a few traitors, not worth mentioning."
"It's really nothing to worry about. They are just a bunch of idiots who have been searching for days and still can't find their way home!"
"Don't underestimate them. Our Mojia Village has always been isolated from the outside world. They rarely go out on weekdays, so naturally they can't find their way home."
"Well, I think Mo Lengzhou looks like someone."
"Who in our Mojia Village do you think is not like the person you remember?"
"You know what? The few people I've seen are all familiar people I remember. I thought I saw a ghost!"
"Aren't you the general?"
"The general is also a common man. I am just a gifted martial artist since childhood. Otherwise, how could I allow you scum to bully me?"
"Oh! A scum of the martial arts world? That's not what you just said. I am the eldest son of the Gongxi family you mentioned, and the master you mentioned should be my father."
"Are you really Master Gongxi's eldest son?" Xiao Ji's guard suddenly dissipated a lot.
"Although your father only taught me for two years, he is the teacher I respect the most. He teaches very well."
"I also respect my father. Do you know how the Gongxi family is doing now?" Gongxi Leqing asked leisurely.
In fact, he was extremely nervous inside. His father's two best friends back then were the crown prince of the dynasty and the young master of the Mo family.
They were framed by villains one after another and were originally going to be exterminated along with their entire clan, but the emperor was merciful and left a descendant for the Mohist family.
Under the manipulation of his father and the young master of the Mo family, he exchanged Xuanyuan Lengzhou for the eldest grandson of the Mo family.
My father resolutely gave up his wealth and glory and went into exile with the sickly Mo family member, but people who chased him along the way came one after another.
They were forced to live in seclusion here, but unfortunately, after only twenty years of peaceful life, the group of evil bandits came back again.
Gongxi Leqing recalled the traitors in his mind. Those memories were like sharp blades, cutting through his sensitive nerves one by one.
Just like a turbulent sea that instantly drowned him, his original plan was to use all his strength to drive away those evil thieves.
But Leng Zhou and his wife said they were going to lure these people away. Hahaha, they actually captured the encircled general alive!
Gongxi Leqing's words made Xiao Ji silent for a moment. He really didn't know what the Gongxi family was like now!
But he didn't know how to start. It was a bit awkward for the two of them not to talk, and even breathing became particularly difficult.
Xiao Ji didn't know what the Gongxi family was like now, but he could talk about Prince Chen and the prince of the Xuanyuan royal family.
He knew in his heart that the person in front of him was trying to trick him, as he was the most promising person in the Xiao family.
Gongxi Master's eldest son is not simple, and neither is he. The real challenge between them begins with testing each other.
Xiao Ji silently recited the family oath in his heart, his eyes as sharp as torches, fixed tightly on Gongxi Leqing.
With unshakable faith in his heart, he took a firm step towards the future, towards the unknown battle.
With the appearance of Mojia Village, Xiao Ji felt an inexplicable excitement in his heart.
Their Xiao family may be able to prosper for another hundred years!
His grandfather and father have always trained him to be the young master of the Xiao family. As the young master of the Xiao family, he is very pessimistic about Prince Chen.
However, there are not many outstanding princes in the Xuanyuan royal family. If Mo Lengzhou is the son of the prince, then he is willing to follow them to deal with King Chen.
As expected of the prince's son, he can subdue his men with just one move. Not to mention Nanzhao, there are not even ten such people in the six kingdoms.
The Xiao family's mission is to protect Nanzhao and the Xuanyuan clan's kingdom, but the infighting among the princes brings a strong sense of oppression to the people.
The fate of the Xiao clan is closely related to the fate of the entire Nanzhao people.
Gongxi Leqing listened silently, occasionally asking a few irrelevant questions, but more often he just shook his head calmly.
His reaction was beyond Xiao Ji's expectations, making him unsure of Gongxi Leqing and Mo Lengzhou's thoughts.
When they were speechless again, Gongxi Leqing walked to Xiao Ji's bedside, took out a bottle of pills from his arms and handed it to him.
"This is medicine for healing. After taking it, your body will be fully recovered in three days. Remember to leave here in three days!"
"You captured me just to help me heal my injuries and then let me go back?" Xiao Ji turned his back to the other person and asked in confusion.
"Our village chief is just testing your ability, there is no other intention. If you stay, you will waste our food rations."
Gongxi Leqing did not tell the truth, because they were going to leave the village and naturally would not leave a troublemaker in the village.
