Luck and destiny have been fluctuating since yesterday. The last time this happened was when Xia Qiu was targeted by the Taiping Cult for the first time. It happened again this time, but obviously it would not be as easy as last time.

Last time there were Uncle Yang, Uncle Li, and a bunch of strong men from the village, but this time, after sending off my mother and the others, it seemed that I was the only one left. Although I had made up my mind to give it a try, how could I

All Bo Chen Mo can think of now is to continue to create chaos on the Taiping Cult side and look for opportunities to kill more Taiping Cultists... This is all he can think of for the time being.

The noise gradually disappeared, night fell, the ancient city, battlefields, corpses, and blood were swallowed by the darkness, and Chen Mo's restless heart gradually calmed down.

No matter what, I will send my mother to the city first, and the rest will be decided step by step.

The sounds around him gradually disappeared. Seeing that the agreed time had come, Chen Mo quietly took his mother to the agreed place late at night and stared at the signal from the city quietly, feeling somewhat uneasy in his heart.

After all, people like myself are just insignificant people to the county magistrate. If they forget this matter, what should they do?

However, this anxiety did not last long. Just when Chen Mo was hesitant, there was a flash of fire in the corner of his eyes. He quickly looked up and saw someone on the city wall holding a torch and turning it three times.

"Let's go, let's go!" Chen Mo was overjoyed when he saw this, and quickly woke up everyone who was already drowsy. Carrying his luggage and holding Heizi, he stumbled all the way to the city wall. The stench around him couldn't conceal his excitement at this moment.

Chen Mo came to the city, raised the torch and waved it towards the city, and a hanging basket was quickly lowered on the wall.

"Mom, come up quickly!" Chen Mo quickly urged his mother to let her go up first. At this time, even though Aunt Cai was also a little anxious, she was not dissatisfied with Chen Mo's move. After all, this opportunity was fought for by Chen Mo with his life.

"Sister-in-law, come on first, help me hold Heizi." Mother Chen shook her head and took the initiative to give the opportunity to Aunt Cai.

"This..." Aunt Cai was a little moved, but also hesitant, and couldn't help but look at Chen Mo.

"Mother? Why do you need to be polite at this time?" Chen Mo asked confused.

"Mom wants to stay with my son for a while." Chen Mo touched Chen Mo's head and looked at Aunt Cai with a smile: "Sister-in-law, please go first."

"So... rude!" Aunt Cai glanced at Chen Mo hesitantly, and finally nodded, urging Ah Dai to go up first with Heizi in his arms.

Soon the hanging basket came down again, and after sending Dalang and Aunt Cai up one after another, when it came down again, Chen Mo looked at his mother, a little anxious.

"My son will go first."

"This..." Chen Mo was startled when he heard this, then shook his head and said: "Mother, go up first, and the child will come later."

Mother Chen didn't speak, but looked at Chen Mo quietly. Chen Mo, who was looking calm at first, gradually became numb. In front of his mother, it seemed that all his thoughts were gone. After a long time, he said: "Mom,

This time I will let you go to the city first, but I need to help the county magistrate defeat the enemy. I am afraid... I will have to wait a few days before I can reunite with my mother."

"Tens of thousands of thieves should be entrusted to the body of a ten-year-old child?" Chen's mother did not answer, but asked rhetorically.

"My child also wants to revive my Chen family lineage. Although this war is a catastrophe, it is also an opportunity. My child does not want to live like that anymore. I want my mother to live a good life." Chen Mo lowered his head, not daring to

To see my mother's face.

"My son has great ambitions, how can my mother stop him?" Mother Chen sighed, stretched out her hand to hug Chen Mo into her arms, and whispered in his ear: "I, Mr. Chen Mo, will be known to the world one day. I promise my mother, I will come back alive."

.”

"Mom..." Chen Mo had already prepared a lot of words to persuade his mother to agree to do this, but he didn't expect his mother to let him go so easily. After feeling relaxed for a while, he felt a little depressed, thinking about his mother's future.

You have to rely on yourself. Although you have to take a chance, if something happens to you, how will your mother live? She looked at her mother and opened her mouth. When the words came to her mouth, her throat seemed to be blocked by something, and she couldn't say half of it.

Words come.

"Now that you have made a decision, don't act like a daughter." Mother Chen stepped on the hanging basket and looked at Chen Mo with a smile.

Under the moonlight, the hanging basket slowly rose, and his mother's appearance could no longer be seen clearly. Only vaguely, something seemed to be reflecting on her face. Chen Mo raised his head and silently looked in the direction of the city wall until he was sure that his mother had safely entered the city.

, Chen Mocai turned around and walked towards the darkness, his steps gradually becoming firmer.

…

"You are only ten years old, but you have such courage. If this boy doesn't die, he will become a great person in the future!" Zang Hong and Zhang Chao stood at the top of the city. Zhang Chao was comforting Chen's mother and Aunt Cai. Ah-Dai and Dalang knew that Chen Mo

After not following them up, Zang Hong clamored to go back, but Zang Hong seemed to be aloof from the incident, silently watching the darkness in front of him, until Chen's mother and others were sent to rest, and Zhang Chao came back and said leisurely.

"Does Ziyuan cherish talents?" Zhang Chao asked with a smile.

"Of course there is. He has a clean family background, his ancestors were once prominent, and he is loyal, filial and studious. If he can carve it out carefully, he will definitely become a pillar of our great nation in the future!" Zang Hong nodded and smiled.

"There are talents among poor families, but unfortunately the current situation is..." Zhang Chao shook his head and sighed. The current world situation makes it difficult for poor families to rise again.

"But it's not necessarily that after this chaos, there will be a chance." Zang Hong said with a smile: "If Brother Meng Gao doesn't mean it, I will accept this disciple."

"This is natural." Zhang Chao nodded. Although he also admired Chen Mo, he was not as optimistic as Zang Hong. Without Zang Hong, he would at most let Chen Mo stay with him and become a secretary under his command when he grew up.

Officer, to say that he values ​​​​more, is to think too much. After all, Chen Mo is a concubine of the Chen family in Huaipu. He has to consider the attitude of the Chen family. Although the Chen family will not become enemies with him because of this, other people's concubines like this

He doesn't really want to get involved in the disputes, and he doesn't mind things that happen casually, but he can't do it like Zang Hong.

"You, sometimes you worry too much." Zang Hong glanced at Zhang Chao. He had been a friend for many years. Zang Hong didn't know what he thought, and he didn't expose it. He just made a joke and said nothing more.

"It's too early to tell. Let's see if this boy has this fate." Zhang Chao didn't care. Even if Zang Hong had this intention, if Chen Mo died here, everything would be meaningless.

"Take a break early. I don't know how long this battle will last?" Zang Hong ended the topic, shook his head and smiled as he walked.

"It won't be long. The imperial court will have countermeasures at this time. How can such a mob be an opponent?" Zhang Chao followed Zang Hong and left side by side. He was obviously not as desperate as others about the Taiping Sect. It is not that easy for a big man.
