Selfishness

Chapter 38

I finally understand why many people overeat when they are emotionally unstable.Because the brain simply forgot to give the command to his subordinates - put down the chopsticks and don't eat this command, which has been suppressed by emotions.The end of this is that you eat too much and can't walk.

"I said, little Mozi, you are really a pig! You actually eat so much!" Su Yun chattered endlessly while supporting me.

"It's all your fault for bullying me, causing me to eat too much when I get too excited."

The two people behind me were still giggling.I think they wanted to comfort me, but because it was so funny, when they wanted to talk, all their words turned into laughter.As it is now, Xiao Han raised his hand and was about to say something, but when he opened his mouth, there was a "poof" sound, and he covered his mouth and smiled beside him.I am helpless about this.

"Little Mozi, you are like a ball now. I really want to kick you and make you go back." Su Yun looked at me in disgust and said.

"Pfft. Ah Yun's description is really accurate." Chen Hui said with a light smile.Although she is not as exaggerated as Xiao Han's smile, I think she must be smiling inwardly.After all, Chen Hui's "smiling mask" was cracked from laughing.

"Hmph! Next time I must find someone to make a handsome and exquisite mask! And make a jade fan! Wait a minute!"

"Hahaha! Shuisheng, stop talking, I think you're going to spit it out." Xiao Han finally said what she had enjoyed for a long time but was suppressed by a smile all the time.

"You wait for me."

"Hahaha! Little Mozi, you don't have the slightest threat to say these words in your current state!" Su Yun let go of me, and rolled forward and backward laughing alone.

"Thank you for complimenting me on my elegance."

Su Yun stopped laughing suddenly, looked at me seriously and said, "Little Mozi." She put her hands on my shoulders and said, "I'm just saying you look too stupid."

After speaking, all three of them laughed, leaving me alone to mourn.

On the way back, it was really full of laughter—their laughter.Alas, when will I grow up!This little kid's body is really enough!

It's true that I can't sleep after eating too much at night.I tossed and turned in bed and just couldn't sleep.So I simply got up, and now I sat on the threshold for a while, and wandered around the house when I felt bored.I saw a place where candles were still burning, the windows were open, and Xiao Han was sitting by the window reading a book.

"Aren't you sleeping so late?" I walked over softly, leaning against the window and asking.

Obviously she was a little surprised by my presence.The general's vigilance is not high.

"General, your vigilance is really not high. You should find someone to guard you, otherwise it would be dangerous."

She laughed and said, "Not everyone is as sneaky as you."

"Your identity is worthy of many people sneaking around."

Is this guy really unsuspecting or just pretending?Doesn't she know how coveted her status is?

"In this deserted northern border, a place of bitter cold, even sneaky people will lose their interest." She closed the book and said, "Come in, it's windy outside."

This bookstore is not big, and the earthen walls of the frontier fortress are printed with yellow light, making it even more barren.

"Indeed. The wind at night is very harsh. I don't think anyone wants to hide outside and look around.

"Shuisheng thinks a lot at such a young age."

"When I was young, my master took me to travel all over the world, and I am not carefree like ordinary children." I closed my eyes and said nonsense.Anyway, I'm a wanderer now, so I can say whatever I want.

"I don't know who the honored master is?"

"The nameless one."

"Oh? That's unimaginable."

"An annoying old man. So I left him and went out to play with Su Yun. I happened to meet Chen Hui on the road, and we went together."

"It's a coincidence."

"What about you, General? You have guarded the frontier here since you were a child?"

"That's not true. I just saw that the people at the border gate were being harassed by thieves, so I volunteered to come here to guard the gate."

This pass is one of the important passes, but the conditions are the most difficult, and not many people are willing to come.Not to mention the harsh conditions, but the vulnerable military defense facilities and the generals who have no fighting spirit have already made many generals daunted.According to Yingtang's information, when Xiao Han received the order to come here to close the customs, many people just watched it as a joke.Because although this pass has a terrain advantage, the enemy rarely attacks it head-on.But as long as this pass is lost or there is a problem, Xiao Han will definitely be punished for losing the strategic fortress.Even if nothing happened, this harsh condition was enough to make Xiao Han suffer.Unexpectedly, after Xiao Han came here for a year or two, this pass has taken on a whole new look.The city defense facilities have been strengthened a lot, and the fighting spirit and mental outlook of the soldiers are also very high.Now the pass is still being expanded and reinforced, and it seems to have a tendency to become a grand pass in the world.This also shows that Xiao Han's methods are extraordinary.

"Xiao Han really loves the people like a son." I said in a frivolous tone.

Xiao Han's eyes were fixed, and the dangerous breath was revealed bit by bit.

"Why are you so nervous. Didn't you say that there are no sneaky people in this desert frontier?" I said a little funny.

"What does Shui Sheng mean by this?"

"It's getting colder and colder today."

According to many studies, it can be seen that the impact of weather changes on the stability of ancient societies.During the time I came here, I always thought that the thermal insulation facilities of ancient people were not as good as modern ones.But later, when I saw the crops, I realized that the temperature was lower than the benchmark, and even the white soil in the north could not harvest much grain.In this case, there will be chaos if there is no chaos.

"General Xiao, is this food enough? I mean we brought it here."

"It can last for a while."

"I mean, compared with the amount you expected, is it enough?"

Xiao Han didn't answer me, but just glanced at me.

"Then let me tell you, this is not a small sum for the Sheng Mansion?"

Ha, she was really surprised.

"General Xiao, think about it. It's getting colder and colder, what about the food? How can the Central Plains people survive without food?"

I don't believe that her family didn't think about that - something Chen Hui's family thought about.Nothing lasts forever, and the dynasty that lasted so long should be in chaos.

"Jinguo is rich in real estate, with a vast land and resources. Could it be that it can't survive?" She shook her head and answered me, saying, "What do children know?"

"Yes! The Central Plains is a good place. What about the nomadic Southern and Northern tribes? The grasslands and the Gobi can't compare to the richness of the Central Plains."

The corners of her eyes trembled slightly. I think the changes of the Nanbei tribe in recent years should have made her aware of something.

"At this time, the nomads are the strongest. You can say that they are aggressive by nature, but they are not forced by life.

"Shuisheng, what do you want to say?"

She looked straight at me.She was probably wondering about my identity and the meaning of my words.In fact, I just fear that the world will not be chaotic.

"I'm just an ordinary person. General Xiao, don't be suspicious. Probably because I have seen many places and felt deeply. So I have such a guess. But it is a good thing to plan ahead. General Xiao wants to protect this pass from foreign invasion, I understand .But one person can’t keep it for long, only a country can.”

"Naturally, the country will guard this border."

"There are many countries in this world." Small countries outside the frontiers, distant Western countries.Soon, there will be many countries in this Central Plains.

"Really? Shuisheng thinks there will be a few."

"I don't know. The establishment of a country is very easy because of the big cornerstone of culture." With a strong civilization as the foundation, it is very easy to build a country without chaos for a long time.

"Oh? Shuisheng said that, but..." She swung her hand down sideways, making a beheading gesture.

"It's just you and me, but Xiao Han wants to kill me in front of the court?" I blinked, looked at her innocently and said, "I can't stop the way of heaven. Instead of saying no It will change, it is better to firmly believe in the infinite variables in the future, and sit back and watch. I don’t think Xiao Han is a pedantic person, so I just talked about it with you casually today.”

"It is often said that military formations change, and I will not stick to the rules."

"Then I'm really looking forward to it."

"You are really afraid that the world will not be chaotic."

"No chaos is boring, only chaos can bring new order."

"Are you really only ten years old?" No, I should be in my twenties.But my body is still small, and I am also a rascal about this.

"When I'm bored, I like to think wildly. It's my hobby to think about strange problems. I will forget about these nonsense tomorrow."

"Pfft. You bastard." She rubbed my head vigorously and said, "I didn't want to do anything to you. What are you trying to get rid of?"

"I don't want to be suspected by others. I hate that feeling the most. I just want to travel around and live a chic life. Hey! Talk as you say, don't rub your head." I pushed her hand away.Xiao Han smiled even more happily."That's fine," she said.

In fact, I was lying to her. Although it is true to live a chic life, I will go to this muddy water.The future is uncertain, but I still believe that she will not be our enemy.She is a soldier, and although she will also be a politician, the influence of her military career must be there.Damo's breadth is enough to widen her mind, and she is by no means a narrow-minded person.

She is much easier to see through than Chen Hui.But she did a good job of not being angry or angry.I think she really hopes to resist foreign enemies and protect the lives of ordinary people, otherwise, who would want to come to this place?Those who are relegated will not come.For such a person, the country is the most important thing, so I don't think it will be too embarrassing for Zhonghu City.
