Gu Xun looked helplessly at his subordinates and gestured with his eyes:
"Come and try it!"
In response to this, Zhang Han smiled and said nothing, sat motionless with his hands behind his hands, and responded with the same eyes:
"There is nothing the general can do to help me!"
Just kidding, there are still two children in the Imperial Preceptor’s residence. Zhang is still single and has no children. How can he find such a prickly girl?
"Alas..." Gu Xun shook his head and sighed, and said to the little girl again, "How about... you clean yourself first?"
"Although you didn't reply, you should know very well where there is water in this village, and clothes... shouldn't be hard to find either."
This child was picked out from the pile of corpses. She was covered in blood. She was unconscious last night and it was difficult to clean her.
Gu Xun just wiped her face, but her body was still in a mess. After a night of fermentation, the smell now... It can only be said that it is lucky that Gu Xun can block the sense of smell, and Zhang Han is an intelligence worker with a military background, and his tolerance is extremely high.
.
Perhaps because Gu Xun and the two never made any unnecessary moves, the child finally let down his guard a little. After listening to Gu Xun's words, he jumped out of the room and disappeared.
Zhang Han watched this very athletic child run away and asked Gu Xun, "Sir, do we leave her alone?"
Gu Xun spread his hands and showed a helpless look, "You have also seen that this child is completely uncooperative."
"Let her do whatever she wants."
"If she leaves directly, then we won't have much trouble. If she doesn't run away, we can take her with her first and figure out how to resettle her later."
Zhang Han recalled the unusualness of this village and said in a deep voice, "Maybe... there will be some trouble?"
Gu Xun waved his hand indifferently, "It doesn't matter what trouble it is. It would be nice if someone took the initiative to come to your door."
Zhang Han nodded secretly. For them, trouble is the answer that comes to their doorstep. There is nothing to worry about.
"My lord, if she hadn't left, how would we arrange for her later?" Zhang Han asked again, "Are we going to leave her behind in the town?"
The people they had rescued before usually kept a small amount of money that would not cause any trouble and then they were done.
But this time is a bit special. He is a child without a father and mother, so it is not appropriate to just give him money.
In this chaotic situation, it is too dangerous for a child to walk alone on the road, even if she knows a little martial arts.
Hearing this question, Gu Xun couldn't help scratching his head.
This is a problem.
Or... send it directly to Tianzong?
Giving away a talented disciple of Tianzong for nothing is considered a favor.
In interpersonal communication, it is the right way to come and go.
Or...
Gu Xun suddenly discovered that if Xiao Meng had a life experience of bearing a blood feud, she would be more suitable to wield the Blue Light Sword than Xue Nu!
Especially since there is a huge talent gap between the two.
What a pity...
Although it was a good fit, Gu Xun didn't even think of changing the sword master temporarily.
There is no need to change the choice you have already made.
The inheritance of martial arts is not something that human beings can control. Even if he tries his best to find the most suitable candidate, it is still unknown whether the Seven Swords can be passed down forever.
Just follow your heart's desires and it's enough.
As for Xiaomeng’s placement...
"Let's wait and see if the child has any plans."
Zhang Han nodded slightly, "That's fine."
Immediately, the two of them left the house and came to the horses tied outside, waiting for the child.
Regarding the question of whether she will leave directly, Gu Xun and Zhang Han have the same view, and the probability is 50-50.
On the one hand, this child is extremely wary, and Gu Xun and Zhang Han don't look like ordinary people, so the probability of frightening him away is not low.
But on the other hand, the child's behavior shows that she is not an ignorant young person. She must be aware of the danger of the war-torn Wei State, and she may not dare to escape rashly alone. p>
It's hard to say which one of these two possibilities has a greater chance. It still depends on the little girl's inner preference at a certain moment.
In the end, unexpectedly but not unexpectedly, the child did not run away. He washed away the stains on his body, changed into a blue and white corset dress, and returned to Guxun.
Looking at the little girl who had been carefully cleaned up and looked like a new girl, Gu Xun was completely sure that she was the young Xiaomeng.
But this time, before Gu Xun could ask, the young Xiao Meng asked first, "Who are you?"
Hearing this, Gu Xun couldn't help but turn his head and look at Zhang Han.
Who are we two?
Uh... I guess they belong to the Qin army. After all, they are here to hasten the demise of Wei.
However, Gu Xun did not answer that way. After pondering for a while, he slowly replied, "We are... passers-by."
Childhood Xiaomeng: "..."
A passerby wearing a Shu brocade white robe and a special military armor, right?
Being stared closely at by a pair of cute big eyes belonging to a child, Gu Xun couldn't help but cough lightly to ease the atmosphere, and replied again with a slight modification, "At least at this moment, for you, the two of us are just
Two kind-hearted passers-by."
The little girl was silent for a moment and then asked, "What do you want to do?"
Gu Xun showed a warm smile and asked, "We should ask you this."
"This village has been completely destroyed. What are you going to do next?"
"If there is somewhere you can go, we can give you a ride."
The little girl stopped talking again, and the wariness in her eyes reappeared.
Seeing this, Gu Xun had no choice but to change the subject for the time being, "...let's get to know each other first."
"My name is Gu Xun, he is Zhang Han, little girl, how should I call you?"
The little girl looked a little gloomy, and after a while she replied, "I... don't have a name."
Gu Xun and Zhang Han looked at each other again.
I don’t have a name... I’m afraid I don’t want to mention my name.
But it doesn't matter, just drop the old name, maybe you can get rid of the trouble.
Gu Xun touched his chin, rolled his eyes, and an idea came to his mind. He immediately asked with a smile, "In that case, how about I give you a name and use it as a title?"
The little girl looked at Gu Xun, blinked her eyes, and did not answer, but she probably acquiesced.
Seeing this, Gu Xun said, "Life is short, and things in the world are complicated, like bubbles in a dream, blurred and difficult to distinguish."
"Your family has undergone drastic changes, and you have suffered such a disaster, but you have survived by luck. It can be called a great ups and downs, just like a dream. Just like waking up from a dream, we will call you - Xiao Meng."
Xiao Meng......
The little girl, or she who is now officially called Xiao Meng, chewed the name silently in her heart, and couldn't help but think of all the people who died tragically in the village. The aura exuding from her whole body became more and more decadent, but her head couldn't help but nod slightly.
Move.
She thinks this name... is very good and suits her very well.
