"She said, Tianwangzhai can't give me what I want?"

In Huangxian City, in the Bai family's inn, Bai Su put down the book in her hand, quietly looked at the ghost-faced man standing ten steps away, and asked slowly: "So, Blackbeard didn't cause her a lot of losses, and you , and didn’t try out the true fighting power of her group of people?”

"Yes, those subordinates she has trained are more powerful than we imagined." The ghost-faced man said, "I don't want to cause heavy losses to Tianwangzhai just for the sake of testing."

"How strong?"

The ghost-masked man thought for a while, and replied: "Probably, it is as powerful as the soldiers trained by my father."

The ghost-masked man told a complete story of the situation at that time, and Bai Su nodded slightly in thought after hearing this, with an unpredictable expression.

Bai Su didn't speak, and neither did the ghost-masked man. There was only candlelight flickering between the two of them, and there was an incomparable silence until after a long time, Qing Ye suddenly appeared and reported to Bai Su: "Just now, two groups of thieves broke into the county town. The gang claimed to be from 'Zizhu Village', they have already robbed Xiao's family, and there is also a group of 'Tianwang Village', who are robbing the food that Xiao Han and his family collected from my Bai family."

"what?!!!"

When the ghost-masked man heard the words, he couldn't help but blurted out immediately, and then he glanced at Bai Su, seeing that the other party was also looking at him with a clear look, he couldn't help being furious, and left immediately.

As soon as the ghost-masked man left, Bai Su also got up, Bai Qingye handed over the cloak at the right time, Bai Su took the cloak, walked out of the room, called the steward who was on duty outside, took Buqu Dingkou and the cart, He also rushed to the granary of the Xiao family.

Just as she had expected, the ghost-faced man who brought people here one step ahead of her was leading a group of people to confront each other with their swords drawn, arguing with each other.

Seeing this, Bai Su couldn't help shaking her head, and then asked her steward and Qubu to come forward, and then heard a small boss-like person among the thieves say to the steward of the Bai family: "The gate is here, and the food is here. Inside, if you want to move it yourself, don't stand in the way of the master, otherwise, don't blame the sword in the master's hand for not having eyes."

After the other party finished saying this, he hurriedly directed his family to move food, ignoring the Bai family and the ghost-faced man with the sword.

Bai Su saw everything in his eyes, and looked back at the ghost-masked man who was still arguing with others, and couldn't help shaking his head again, but still asked Qing Ye to pass a message to the ghost-masked man.

Seeing the situation clearly, Bai Su didn't worry anymore, and regardless of whether the ghost-masked man would listen to his suggestion, he turned around and walked slowly towards the inn. There seemed to be a faint voice coming from the corner of the street, so he held up a lantern to illuminate it, only to find that the person was the new Dutou Chuning.

It was almost midnight at this moment, and Chu Ning had just returned not long after he had brought people to clean up the battlefield. Normally, he should have stayed in the county government office or the barracks to rest, but he didn't want to. The soil bowl contained a large bowl of white rice, together with a few slices of salted radish, watching those thieves robbing the property and food of Xiao Han's family, eating happily on their own.

"It's cold in the middle of the night, and Chu Du's head is to take care of his body." Bai Su, who had seen everything in his eyes and understood it in his heart, could not help but flash a little light in his eyes when he saw Chuning, and he hesitated for a long time. After a while, I just said a word of concern.

Hearing the sound, Chu Ning raised his head, chewed and swallowed the last mouthful of rice, handed the bowl to He Wu, took out a clean white cloth from his sleeve pocket, wiped his face and hands clean, and then spoke to Bai Su He said with a smile: "You Laobai's family is worried. Those of us who have lived in the mountains since childhood have to face such icy cold winds every year. Compared with the winter when the snow first melts, these cold winds are nothing."

Although he said so, the cold November wind was blowing on his body in only two layers of single clothes, it was really too cold, and he was almost shivering.

Bai Su went over Chu Ning's words again in his heart, and then saw that Chuning's face was full of 'Quickly ask me!You ask me quickly!Why don't you sleep in the middle of the night, but eat supper here with the cold wind blowing...'

Bai Su thought for a while, then followed Chu Ning's expression and asked the question, and then saw that Chuning smiled even more happily: "Actually, I know that Master Bai is coming, so I am waiting here."

This statement was somewhat true or false, probably only Chu Ning knew it in his heart, Bai Su nodded noncommittally, and did not follow Chuning's words to ask why he waited for her, but cupped his hands and planned to leave.

Chuning knew a long time ago that for Bai Su, this kind of small trap used to guide the conversation is useless, so there is no need for Bai Su to ask at this moment. Before Bai Su said goodbye, she also told her The topic continued: "Actually, I have two things I want to discuss with Master Bai, but it's too late today, so I dare not come to visit, so I have to wait here to see my luck."

Bai Su's temperament is relatively cold, and she doesn't speak much. She belongs to the kind of person who can't talk, but fortunately, Chuning can chat very enthusiastically by herself. Thinking of saying goodbye, he asked, "I don't know what's important for Chu Dutou?"

Bai Su thought that Chu Ning should have finished fighting the bandits and came to her overnight to ask for a reward.

But Chuning rubbed his hands that were freezing cold, and breathed out: "The first thing is... I want to borrow some bed quilts from Mr. Bai's family... It doesn't matter if it's old or rotten... ...Master Bai knows that my men have suffered a lot of casualties today, and I really can't bear to let them face the torment of such a severe cold wind when they have lost their relatives and friends, and are suffering from heartbreak and physical pain."

Bai Su habitually remained silent for a while, so that he could have time to discern the truth of the other party's words.But at this moment, seeing with my own eyes a person wearing thin clothes, shivering from the icy cold wind of this winter night, but still pretending to be smiling...

Suddenly, Bai Su thought that the day when she was sold out by her stepmother to the Bai family, it was also such a bitterly cold wind. She struggled to escape from the toothman's hand, and ran on such a cold winter night. Since then, she has been wandering for thousands of miles.

Today, she no longer wanders around, and even has a lot of money, but she can't laugh anymore.

This time, Bai Su was not able to stay silent for too long, his thoughts turned and he struggled for a while, finally he raised his hand to untie the tie of his cloak.

"it is good!"

Accompanied by an almost inaudible word "Good", Bai Su shook off her cloak, put it on Chuning's shoulders, and tied the belt on smoothly. After doing all this, she suddenly found that she The distance from Chuning is actually close at hand.

At that moment, Bai Su's eyes flashed some emotions that can be called panic, lie, and bewilderment, but she was quickly restrained, silently took three steps back, and then three steps, then turned around, took Chuning and He Wu returned to the inn.

Chu Ning didn't expect Bai Su to behave like this. She already knew that Bai Su was not only cold-tempered, but also had a cleanliness habit and didn't like to be in contact with others. Such a person...how could he lend his cloak to others?Also help people tie it up?

Is this a dream?Sister Gao Leng Yu not only borrowed the cloak, but also helped tie the belt?

But the cloak is thick and warm, and it seems to be mixed with a little bit of plum-like fragrance. Although it is always fleeting, it is always lingering...

Bai Su was obviously a man of his word, so he quickly called in the steward, first dug out some old clothes and quilts replaced by the Bai clan from the warehouse, and then spent money from his maids and waiters I bought some of them and made up five carts, and let Chuning pull them away overnight.

When the ghost-masked man came back, he was in a mess, his hair and clothes were covered with dust and grains of food, obviously he still listened to Bai Su's words, and even went to battle to grab the food himself.

Seeing that Chu Ning called for people to take these old things away, the ghost-masked man couldn't help being dumbfounded, but although he was excited, he didn't dare to break Bai Su's rules. He stood a dozen steps away and said in surprise: "She ...she...she is..."

"These should be regarded as extra gifts from me, and they will not be included in the remuneration promised to you in advance."

The ghost-masked man immediately felt relieved, but couldn't help asking: "Why?"

I thought I wouldn't get an answer from Bai Su, but I didn't expect that Bai Su was looking at the leaving back, after a slight silence, he said slowly: "Because, she is different from you."

The ghost-masked man looked at Chu Ning, who was drifting away, and then at himself, but he couldn't figure it out. He was obviously a bandit, but in Bai Su's eyes, the other party was completely different from him.

Yes, at this moment, in Bai Su's eyes and heart, although Chu Ning and the ghost-faced man both came from bandits, they are different.

The ghost-masked man obviously made very little effort, but he turned his back and wanted to monopolize the big head. This is ugly.

The ghost-faced man could clearly compete with Chuning on the battlefield, and judge his merits by victory or defeat, but he retreated at the last moment, which was not decisive.

On the contrary, when Chu Ning learned that there was going to be a bloody battle with the pirates, even though she knew she had allies, she would rather come to Bai Su for weapons with a shy face than waste time negotiating and coordinating with allies. Clearly, Tianwangzhai is not an ally, not a reinforcement, she can only rely on herself.

But when the ghost-masked man came to talk to Bai Su, Chuning had already led people to clean up the battlefield, and when he turned around, he immediately slapped Xiao Han's and his family, and even took the blame on Tianwangzhai.

This behavior is not decisive or cruel, but in such decisiveness and cruelty, it leaves room for her—I, Chuning, can snatch it, and you, the ghost-masked man, can snatch it. The same can be robbed, and everyone can be divided according to their ability. Whoever robs more and who robs less can only blame themselves!

This kind of food, in Bai Su's opinion, is much better than the ghost-masked man.

More importantly, if she relied on means before and after the battle, then she was shivering in the cold wind, but she still pretended to laugh nonchalantly, to borrow clothes for her subordinates... what is this?

When Chu Ning led the people away, what the ghost-faced man saw was only her blurred back, her background as a bandit, but what Bai Su saw was——Chuning was wearing her exquisite clothes. Snow-white cloaks, mixed in a group of ragged people, against the icy cold wind, pushed the cart together hard, even though they had gradually drifted away, they could vaguely hear the strange singing brought by the cold wind: " White rice and pickled radish! One bowl or two is enough to fill your stomach! You can turn into a big fat pig after a meal..."

There was a smile in the singing, but Bai Su felt that the person who always seemed to smile gently might not like to laugh.
