Chapter 656: Self-humiliation (2)
Mu Longguang has two kinds of seals for the general. One is made of pure gold, which he mainly uses to send people around the city. The one he gave to Chu Xiaomu a few months ago was a gold seal. Even though his name, Mu Longguang, was not on it, the gold itself was extremely valuable. The other was the wooden seal he gave to Xuanying. It was said that this wood was not an ordinary piece of wood, but was carved from a branch cut from a tree known as a sacred tree in the mysterious forest on the north side of Qingyuan. It was many times more valuable than the pure gold seal.
Because the sacred tree is extremely rare, Mu Longguang usually hides the seal in his treasure house and never shows it to others. Mo Haodong was only fortunate enough to see and touch it once, and then his godfather Mu Longguang carefully hid the sacred tree seal again.
Because the color and shape were very strange, Mo Haodong could recognize at a glance that the wooden plaque that fell on the ground was undoubtedly his adoptive father's seal of the general. He thought to himself that he had asked his father to ask for a gold seal from his adoptive father but failed, how did you get this sacred wooden seal? This kid said he was going to find his adoptive father, could he really be someone important?
Xuan Ying had no idea how precious this wooden seal was, and even less did she know that Mo Haodong was burning with jealousy. He said, "Then tell us, is this thing yours or mine? Is it worth five hundred gold?"
The person Mo Haodong feared the most was Mu Longguang. He took the card and put it back into the bag. He was about to hand it over to Xuanying respectfully when a vicious idea suddenly popped up in his mind. He shouted to the spectators around him, "You can see, this is just a small wooden card, not a gold shell coin at all. That's why I said there is not a single one. Who does this thing belong to? Isn't it clear?"
Most of the onlookers nodded and said, "Although this wooden sign looks good, it is not a coin. Young Master Mo is right. This thing should belong to him."
The smarter ones noticed that Mo Haodong's expression changed a lot after he opened the small bag. He was obviously a little surprised by the things that fell on the ground. But the tall and thin young man in black said that 500 gold coins were too wrong. Therefore, this group of people did not say anything.
Mo Haodong glared at Xuanying fiercely, and added with gritted teeth: "You evil thief who stole things!"
Xuanying could not have imagined that this Mo guy could be such a bastard. Looking at his expression when he first saw the general's seal, he obviously knew it was very valuable, so he turned black into white and falsely accused him of not only saying that the thing was his, but also falsely accusing him of being a thief.
When Tian Laoqi and the other four servants heard their master say this, they became bolder. They spat into their palms, rubbed their hands a few times, rolled up their sleeves, and were ready to fight Xuanying.
Xuan Yinglingxu shot a lightning-like gaze towards Mo Haodong, and he already had murderous intent in his heart.
Mo Haodong was frightened by his sharp eyes and shouted in a thin and bright voice: "What's the matter? Are you so bold as to dare to touch the taboo?!"
Xuan Ying was about to speak when he heard someone outside the crowd shout, "Who in our Baijun City is so tired of living that he dares to make our Mo family's young mistress angry?!"
Mo Haodong was overjoyed when he heard that. He stood on tiptoe and stretched his long neck to shout at the man: "General Zhu, you came at the right time. There is a guy here who not only stole my things, but also wanted to harm me!" He was full of confidence because he had a helper who could use the Force and understood martial arts.
Xuanying also heard that the man who came was the fat deputy general beside Mu Longguang, but he didn't know his last name was Zhu. The two had met in Baijun City, and this man had a bad temper.
Deputy General Zhu led several soldiers in iron armor and came over aggressively, shouting at the onlookers: "General Zhu is doing his job, all the outsiders, please leave immediately, or I will arrest you and put you in the prison!"
The onlookers naturally did not want to be thrown into jail, so they all dispersed with a bang. Only a few brave ones still stood in the distance, wanting to see how this farce would end.
Deputy General Zhu shouted at the top of his voice as he walked: "You dare to make our Young Master Mo angry? You must be tired of living... Young Master, I helped you to deal with this blind guy, so you have to treat me to a good drink, right? Haha..."
Mo Haodong smiled and said, "Brother Zhu, don't worry. Drinking wine is just a small matter. It's not just one meal. I think three, five, ten or eight meals will do!"
The two of them didn't take Xuanying seriously at all.
Deputy General Zhu was still behind Xuanying and couldn't see his face. He said, "Where did this kid come from? He's so bold..."
He gradually walked closer and finally saw Xuanying's profile. He was so shocked that he couldn't seem to believe it. He quickly turned his head to look twice, and his feet trembled uncontrollably and he almost fell to the ground.
Xuanying looked at him coldly and said, "Deputy General Zhu, hello."
Deputy General Zhu bowed hurriedly and said, "Xuan...Xuan..."
Xuanying asked, "Are you going to take me to your prison?"
Mo Haodong didn't notice the change in the situation, and said loudly: "Yes, I think you are going to eat the prison food in the Criminal Code Prison!"
Deputy General Zhu quickly pulled him aside and whispered, "Stop talking. This... this is..."
Xuanying didn't want to reveal his identity on the street, so he said, "Take me to see your General Mu quickly, and take him with me!" and pointed at Mo Haodong.
Seeing Deputy General Zhu's humble appearance, Mo Haodong knew that he might have met a difficult person, but he was most afraid of his adoptive father Mu Longguang, so he shouted, "How... to see my adoptive father? Why do you want me to see my adoptive father?! I... I won't go!"
Tian Laoqi and the other three servants continued to shout: "Who do you think you are? You can see the general whenever you want..."
Before he could finish his words, he heard two "slaps" and was slapped twice by Deputy General Zhu. His face, like a pig's butt, swelled up immediately and even his tongue was straightened. He kept screaming "Ahhhhh" in strange ways.
Deputy General Zhu said to Mo Haodong: "My dear young master, the general did ask me to call you over. It just so happens that... it just so happens that..."
Mo Haodong immediately became depressed. Seeing his adoptive father Mu Longguang was more painful than killing him. And the fact that Deputy General Zhu lowered his head and looked at the black-clothed boy in front of him made him even more confused and puzzled. He didn't understand what was going on.
However, since Mu Longguang asked him to go, he had to go. He had no choice but to follow the soldiers led by Lieutenant General Zhu and walked with them towards the General's Mansion.
Looking at Deputy General Zhu, who was walking in front like a pug, Mo Haodong's heart was beating wildly. Mu Longguang's force had passed the fifth water-breaking realm, and he was a mainstay in Baijun City. Not only did he control nearly 10,000 troops on the left side, he was also the elder brother of the city lord's wife, and was officially named the first-class city protector, with a brown sacred wood seal. His power was unmatched in Baijun City.
Therefore, the deputy generals and guards around him relied on his power and were superior to others in Baijun City. They were usually arrogant and domineering. However, Deputy General Zhu seemed so humble in front of this boy in black.
This made Mo Haodong feel scared.
