Chapter 258 Wan Xingmo delivers the letter
"Kid, are you feeling unwell?"
Wan Xingmo looked at Ergouzi, whose little face was red from the cold, and asked condescendingly. Then he bent down and pulled Ergouzi up from the ground. The moment he touched Ergouzi, Wan Xingmo's heart was startled. This child is really cold. Could he be frozen?
When he was guarding the border in Northeast China, some of his soldiers were frozen to death. He knew how lethal extremely severe weather could be to people.
Ergouzi was pulled up from the ground by Wan Xingmo. With an excited smile on his face, he kept looking at Wan Xingmo, just like a believer who saw the true God he burned incense and worshipped every day.
"Are you General Wan?" Ergouzi finally plucked up the courage to ask.
Wan Xingmo lowered his eyes and looked at Ergouzi in front of him, but he had no impression of him in his mind. He just felt that he looked familiar. He was probably a child from the same village who often played with the Wan family's children. However, he nodded anyway.
"Yes, my name is Wan Xingmo, they all call me Brother Mo, you can also call me Brother Mo, you can answer my question now, are you feeling unwell?"
Er Gouzi shook his head quickly and said excitedly: "No, I'm not uncomfortable, I'm just too happy, I... I finally saw the God of War, Wan Quan said that you are our Great Qi's God of War, can I also call you Brother Mo like Wan Quan?"
Wan Xingmo saw the long-lost admiration in Ergouzi's eyes. Even though it was admiration in the eyes of an underage child, Wan Xingmo, who was far away from the battlefield, was still a little moved. This was the purest admiration from the heart.
"Of course, but you need to go back and put on more clothes to keep warm, otherwise you will freeze to death."
Wan Xingmo was about to leave after he finished speaking, but he heard a puffing sound behind him.
He quickly turned his head to look, only to find that it was Er Gouzi who had kneeled in the snow again.
"Brother Mo, I heard that General Wan has been called back by the Emperor to fight in the war. I know you will definitely go back too. Can you take me with you? Wan Quan has gone to join the army, and I want to go too. I want to go find him."
Wan Xingmo knew about Wan Quan's situation, but he was not nearby at the time and did not stop him in time. However, according to the time, he should not have arrived at the Northeast battlefield yet. If he rode faster, he might be able to catch up and keep Wan Quan under his command as a soldier to teach him first.
Wan Xingmo picked Ergouzi up from the ground again and helped him shake off the snow foam on his body.
"You are still too young to go to the battlefield. If the enemy invades Da Qi again in two years, it won't be too late for you to join the army. Besides, your mother and sister still need someone to take care of them, right? Once you go to the battlefield, your life will not be decided by you. Do you think your mother will let you go?"
Wan Xingmo seemed to have some impression of him. This boy seemed to live at the end of the village and often played with Wan Quan. His sister was Xiaolan.
Wan Xingmo was more patient with Ergouzi and persuaded him a few words.
But Ergouzi didn't appreciate it and was determined to go to the battlefield.
"Brother Mo, don't worry, I will convince my mother to agree. I hope Brother Mo will take me to find Wan Quan. I also want to be a powerful person like Brother Mo, and become a respected person."
Er Gouzi already had a plan in mind. He knew that soldiers would be paid military pay, so he would send all the pay back to pay for his mother's medical treatment.
"Go ask your mother first." Wan Xingmo left after saying this.
Er Gouzi stared blankly at Wan Xingmo's leaving back. He was stunned for a moment, and then he was ecstatic.
"Did Brother Mo agree to my request? Brother Mo definitely agreed to my request. He even asked me to call him Brother Mo. He is the God of War!"
Er Gouzi no longer had time to be in a daze, and turned around and ran towards the side room.
Wan Xingmo returned to the Wan family's yard, and Old Mrs. Wan quickly took him around.
"Mo'er, are you okay? Did you fall? I saw you enter your yard just now. Is there something wrong?"
Old Mrs. Wan watched Wan Xingmo jump down from the roof. She didn't know what had happened and was a little worried. After all, Yu and Ergouzi were still living in that house.
"Grandma, it's nothing. I just saw a kid shoveling snow. I went down to ask about the situation. Don't worry."
Grandma Wan finally let out a sigh of relief and quickly looked at Wan Laoer and said, "Help Er Gouzi clear the snow in the yard next door. He got frozen yesterday and his frostbite must not have healed yet. He's so young and doesn't know how to take care of himself. His mother is still sick. Let's help if we can."
"I understand, mother. I'll go after dinner."
Wan Ersao had already prepared breakfast. Because Liu had to take care of the child, Wan Ersao did not let her get up to help in the morning. She just asked her to take care of the child.
The children had not gotten up yet, so the adults ate breakfast first and kept the rest warm on the stove, waiting for the children to get up later before eating.
Wan Xingmo had breakfast and was about to help Wan Laoer shovel snow, but was stopped by Grandma Wan. Wan Xingmo had no choice but to say to Grandma Wan, "Grandma, I may have to go out today. If I don't come back tonight, don't leave me any food. I will be back the day after tomorrow at the latest. I need to take care of my business before I leave."
Old Mrs. Wan knew that Wan Xingmo was very busy, so she didn't say anything and just gave him a few instructions before letting him go.
Wan Xingmo left Shizi Village and went straight to the town. He found a shop selling pens, ink, paper and inkstone, bought some paper, and wrote two letters using the shop's ink and pen.
One letter was addressed to Wang Jiawei, leader of the Cheetah Sect, and the other was addressed to Shen Qinghan, leader of the Golden Axe Gang.
After writing the letter, he did not stop for a moment and went to the nearest Golden Axe Gang first.
The Golden Axe Gang was organizing everyone to shovel snow at this time. The yard was bustling with activity and looked very lively.
Moreover, the Golden Axe Gang will soon have the biggest happy event in its history, that is, Shen Qinghan's wife is pregnant, and will give birth in two months. The doctor said that it will most likely be a son, which makes Shen Qinghan very happy. His wife is already in her thirties this year, and she will become a grandmother in the border area. He never thought that his wife could give birth to a pearl in her old age.
Because Shen Qinghan's wife is about to give birth, the doctor asked her to walk more in the past two months. Now it's snowing heavily, and the yard is full of snow. How can Shen Qinghan let his wife walk in the yard? If she falls, he may really have no successor in this life.
Wan Xingmo stood on the roof of the Golden Axe Gang, looking at the people below. The letter in his hand pierced straight into the snow like a dart. Coincidentally, a man was shoveling snow and he saw it clearly. When he looked up at the roof in confusion, he found that there was no one there.
However, he knew that this must be a way for some people to send letters without revealing their identity. However, this person came and went without a trace, and delivered the letter without alarming anyone in their Golden Axe Gang. It can be seen that this person should not be underestimated. He quickly lowered his head, picked up the letter in front of him, and ran to the backyard.
Wan Xingmo also sent a letter to the Cheetah Sect using the same method.
Afterwards, he went to the only inn in the town, booked a room, asked the waiter to decorate the room a little, and left a message for the waiter, asking him to bring anyone who came to see him upstairs.
After Wan Xingmo finished his instructions, he went straight into the guest room and waited.
