In Daze Mountain, there was rain in the sky that night, and there was no one on the wild road. Not far from Kuikui Hall's residence, there was a pool of water, which was pattering with countless ripples.
Wu Kuang stood by the pool with his hands behind his back, his eyes closed and his brows slightly furrowed. He did not hold an umbrella and allowed himself to gradually get wet in the spring rain.
"Bang~" A tall and majestic figure fell down, and when he stood up, there were a few scraping sounds of the iron rope.
Chen Sheng stuck the giant sword in the soil, walked up to him and asked: "Brother, what do you want from me?"
Wu Kuang opened his eyes, stared at the pool of water that was turbulent on the surface but calm on the inside, and said: "Brother, Xiang Yan sent someone to contact me. He hopes that I can become a hero."
Chen Sheng subconsciously said: "Who will be the leader of the knights? This is an internal matter of the farm family. What does it have to do with Xiang Yan?"
Wu Kuang shook his head, let out a long sigh and said: "The previous civil war between Xiong Han and Fu Chu made me see clearly that in this Chu country, the King of Chu does not mean the same thing.
Xiong Han wanted to deal with Qu Jingzhao and other clans, so the clan launched Fu Chu to fight against him. Fu Chu became the king of Chu, and he in turn needed my peasant family to fight against the clan.
Xiakui died, and my farm family was leaderless. This probably gave Xiang Yan an opportunity to divide the farm family and remove this stumbling block."
"King of Chu, clan..." Chen Sheng murmured, suddenly his eyes narrowed, and he said seriously to Wu Kuang, "Xiang Yan has sent people to contact you. Since you have moved to another place, Fu Chu should also have sent people. Ten times.
Eighty-nine, the person he sent to contact was Tian Hu."
"Here's the problem. The battle between heroes and chiefs started, and the internal fighting in my farm family was controlled by Ning Chu and the clan. As a farmer's disciple, I will not accept such an ending."
Wu Kuang turned around calmly and his eyes met with Chen Sheng's.
Chen Sheng was obviously a little stunned by these words. He was stunned for a moment, and then persuaded: "This time the hero is either you or Tian Hu. You don't want to compete with him to become the hero, which will cause internal strife. There is nothing wrong with it.
, but let Tian Hu be the leader of the knights... With his character, I am afraid that he and his family will be tricked to death by people like Xiang Chu and Xiang Yan."
"Haha~" Wu Kuang couldn't help laughing when he heard what he said about Tian Hu, "Brother, you have been away for a long time, so I'm afraid you don't know that Tian Hu is no longer the Tian Hu he used to be."
"Hmph, it's easy to change a country, but it's hard to change one's nature. After several years of not seeing each other, Tian Hu still has a brain." Chen Sheng crossed his arms and did not hide his contempt for Tian Hu's IQ.
"Chen Sheng, if I hadn't come earlier, I wouldn't have known that you are also a person who hurts others behind their backs."
A rough voice shattered the fine spring rain.
Tian Hu jumped out of the forest, and the strong wind stirred up countless raindrops.
"Tian Hu?! Why are you here!" Chen Sheng said in surprise and took a step forward with vigilance.
Wu Kuang helplessly stopped him: "Brother, I invited him here."
"Brother, you?" Chen Sheng was even more confused now.
"Hmph, Chen Sheng, if brother Wu Kuang is like you, then my farm family will probably be killed by Fu Chu and Xiang Yan."
Tian Hu, in turn, scorned Chen Sheng, and then said to Wu Kuang: "You came to me just to discuss with me privately a way to get through this incident."
"The boss is right. Although the farmhouse is more beautiful now, it is also more dangerous. If you take one step, you may be doomed.
Xiakui is no longer here, and the farm family is mixed in with the negative cud and the clan. We need to make our own judgment on everything."
Wu Kuang said it a little uncomfortable. In the past, he was just a martial artist. He was passively involved in the situation of Chu State and the world. He had no experience in dealing with it.
"Farmers still have to stand under the banner of King Chu. If they turn to the clan, they are more likely to be divided up and eaten."
Tian Hu's eyes moved and he shouted in surprise: "Okay! So you are willing to support me as the hero?"
"Brother!" Chen Sheng was incredulous.
"I am thinking about the overall situation. Only when the balance of Chu State is maintained can the farm family be stable." Wu Kuang first responded to Chen Sheng, and then put forward conditions to Tian Hu, "But there are three things that the head of the family must do."
"What's up?"
"Tian Meng took refuge in the net, made a Tianzi first-class true sword, and killed Xia Kui. This matter needs to be explained to the farmer by the master."
Tian Hu snorted coldly and agreed to the first thing: "No problem. Tian Meng is my eldest brother after all. Even if you don't tell me about this matter, I must give an explanation in front of all the brothers in the farm family.
"
"The second thing is that the head of the family must personally promise to all the brothers in the farm family that he will be fair and just to the people with the surname Tian and the surname outside."
"I, Tian Hu, am not a narrow-minded person. My surname Tian and my surname are both my brothers. As a knight leader, this is the most basic principle."
"Okay!" Wu Kuang praised, and then said, "There is one last thing. When the leader of the family becomes the leader of heroes, he will inevitably be close to the King of Chu. I hope that the leader of the family can discuss with me more and share information with me."
If this kind of thing is to be established, wouldn't Tian Hu, the hero of the heroes, be lonely?
Tian Hudang was a little hesitant, "Brother Wu Kuang, this matter..."
Wu Kuang smiled and pointed at Chen Sheng and said: "I will let the eldest brother get close to Xiang Yan, and I will discuss it with the head of the family more when anything happens."
"What?" Chen Sheng pointed at himself in confusion, "Let me get close to Xiang Yan?"
Tian Hu hesitated for a long time, bared his teeth and asked, "Are you asking my farmer to bear the cud, while Xiang Yan eats both sides?"
"It's not a one-size-fits-all deal, it's just for self-protection." Wu Kuang breathed a sigh of relief and explained to the two of them, "In my farm family, the conflict between the surname Tian and the surname Wai has been going on for a long time, and we will never avoid the prying eyes of interested people.
Now that we are in this awkward position, but without a leader, they will not give up driving nails inside us.
Instead of letting others drive nails into us, why not let us take the initiative and drive the nails out.”
Tian Hu finally understood what Wu Kuang wanted to do, and nodded: "I am the leader of the knights, and I took advantage of the negative heart, and the peasants clung to the banner of King Chu. You pretended to be dissatisfied, and let the outside world
All the nails are driven into you. In this way, you and I can master most of the information, respond to various situations, and make the most beneficial choice for the farmer."
"Yes, doing this will be very tiring and often requires acting. But it is also a way for those of us who are ignorant to compete with those princes and nobles." Wu Kuang stared at Tian Hu with a burning gaze, "Master, this is my choice.
, you, a knight-errant, do you support this?"
"Back then, when we took refuge with Xiong Han, we had to make outsiders think that there was serious internal strife in our farm, so that we wouldn't arouse others' high vigilance. The reason is the same, and of course I understand it."
Tian Hu stretched out his fist toward Wu Kuang, "Wu Kuang, I recognize you. I, Tian Hu, say I will be fair and just to people with the surname Tian and other names, and I will definitely be fair and just."
Seeing this, Wu Kuang also extended a fist to bump with him, "Wu Kuang, the master of Kuei Hall, has met Xia Kui."
Chen Sheng felt a little overwhelmed when he saw his brother chatting with Tian Hu like this.
No, the person in front of me is still Tian Hu?
"Chen Sheng, I still say the same thing. You are lucky to have brother Wu Kuang as your brother. I'm leaving." Tian Hu finally teased him, then turned and left.
Chen Sheng looked at his disappearing back, holding back what he wanted to say for a while, but couldn't say anything.
Wu Kuang patted him on the shoulder, "Brother, stop looking and let's go. I still have to deal with that old fox Situ Wanli."
