Chapter 69 Hua Xiong: I am a rough man, please don't mind
"Wu Qiong has met Governor Hua."
Wu Qiong came up to Hua Xiong, bowed respectfully to him, and asked.
His every move revealed his celebrity demeanor.
Hua Xiong had already noticed the reactions of the surrounding soldiers and Wu Qiong's actions.
I couldn't help but sneer in my heart.
How could you not know what this guy's intention was?
This unfortunate guy, the so-called celebrity, comes here to show off!
If it were the original Hua Xiong, he would definitely be shocked by Wu Qiong's performance at this time. He would be confused and at a loss.
You will also feel flattered by the other party's respectful words and attitude.
But Hua Xiong wouldn't think so at this moment. He would only think that this guy was shameless.
Coming in front of a group of fighting men, trying to act like a celebrity, what is he trying to do?
This is obviously an attempt to bully people!
How could he be so high and mighty, and look down upon the fighting men, and yet he kowtowed before Dong Zhuo?
He had fought against the Huns, the Qiang people, the Xianbei, and wiped out the Yellow Turbans before. Why didn't this famous scholar go?
Hua Xiong's face was cold. Facing Wu Qiong's bright smile, he didn't respond at all.
He looked like he wanted to hand the Qinglong Sword in his hand to the guard beside him, but he let go before the guard could take it.
Then the Qinglong Sword fell straight towards Wu Qiong!
The broad blade and the sharp edge look chilling , as if one would be cut in half by it!
"boom!"
The eighty-two-pound Qinglong sword slashed across Wu Qiong's chest and abdomen less than three inches away, then hit the ground with a loud bang.
Wu Qiong's bright and graceful smile froze in an instant.
His face turned pale.
In just a moment, sweat appeared.
The whole person froze there for a moment.
It was not until the Qinglong Sword fell to the ground and the residual sound completely disappeared that he reacted. He took three steps back and almost fell down.
Looking at him at this moment, where is the demeanor of a celebrity left?
It seems that they are worse than many defeated armies encountered on the battlefield.
It turns out that this is the celebrity!
These celebrities are really cowardly when facing swords and guns!
The celebrity demeanor and all the superior things that shrouded Wu Qiong were broken by Hua Xiong with a single strike of the Qinglong Sword.
After seeing the true face of this so-called celebrity, Wang Yuan and others straightened their backs instantly.
And they successfully stood on a high place, and began to look down on Wu Qiong just as Wu Qiong looked down on them before.
Hua Xiong bent down, picked up the Qinglong sword, and handed it to his personal soldier. He looked at Wu Qiong and said with a fake smile: "We are all warriors . We have been fighting for days, and we are tired. Our hands and feet are not obedient. Please don't blame me for not being able to hold the sword firmly for a while."
Wu Qiong's body seemed a little stiff. He looked at the tall and oppressive Hua Xiong, then glanced at the Qinglong sword held by Hua Xiong's personal soldiers. He tried hard to force a smile.
But this smile wasn't bright at all.
"Governor Hua... Governor Hua, you and your soldiers have been fighting for the country for days, so it is understandable that you are tired. How dare I blame you..."
After seeing this scene, Wang Yuan and others couldn't help but smile.
As expected, it is their commander who has to come!
Hua Xiong nodded and said, "I'm glad you understand."
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to the cattle, sheep, and food that came with Wu Qiong, and said with a smile, "Is this a reward from the Prime Minister?"
Wu Qiong nodded hurriedly and said, "That's right, Governor Hua, please have a look..."
Originally, Wu Qiong felt that when he came to Sishui Pass, everything would go smoothly and he would be in control of everything.
After all, he was a famous scholar with a good family background. He didn't know how much better he was than Hua Xiong and others.
And talking to people is my strong point.
It is easy for me to take the dominant position.
But now, after Hua Xiong appeared, he easily cut through all his thoughts with just one slash of his sword.
Instead, he was led by Hua Manzi, whom he looked down upon from the bottom of his heart.
Wu Qiong took a long time to calm down, and after talking to Hua Xiong about the reward from Dong Zhuo, a smile finally appeared on his face.
The speech also seemed much more fluent.
He has regained much of his celebrity demeanor, but he doesn't dare to be as pretentious as before.
"Commander Hua, this is the seal of the commander-in-chief who defeated bandits. The Prime Minister gave it to General Yu specifically..."
Wu Qiong took out the seal and handed it to Hua Xiong.
"Governor Hua, the Prime Minister has great trust in you. You managed to save a man like General Yu.
Not only has the Prime Minister tacitly agreed to let you keep him by his side, but now he has directly promoted General Yu to the rank of Captain of Suppressing Bandits.
This trust and this honor are not something that ordinary people can have..."
After Wu Qiong gave the seal to Hua Xiong, he looked at Hua Xiong and spoke sincerely, his words full of emotion.
Hua Xiong nodded and said, "The Prime Minister has nothing to say to me. Hua Xiong has no other ability. From now on, I can only fight more battles and serve the Prime Minister..."
Wu Qiong was conscientiously fulfilling his duties here and doing his best to reward people.
In his words and actions, he showed great admiration and respect for Dong Zhuo.
Although he never said it explicitly, people could feel that he already regarded himself as Dong Zhuo's cattle and horses.
It completely became the shape of Dong Zhuo.
This made many people present couldn't help but sigh that Prime Minister Dong was truly charming, as he could actually make such a famous person work so wholeheartedly for him.
After a long while, Wu Qiong smiled and said to Hua Xiong, "General Hua, please come over here. There are some things that the Prime Minister wants me to say to you alone."
Hua Xiong glanced at Wu Qiong, then nodded and said, "This way, please."
Hua Xiong's look made Wu Qiong feel guilty. He felt that something was wrong. This Hua Xiong seemed to be a little different from the Hua Xiong he knew.
After this thought arose, he quickly suppressed it, thinking that he was thinking too much and overestimating this Hua Manzi.
Not to mention anything else, just from the fact that this guy threw a big knife at me in front of so many people not long ago, it can be seen that this guy is a barbarian.
I am not just myself at this moment.
I came here on behalf of Dong Zhuo, but he dared to treat me like this.
From this point alone, we can know that we don't need to look down upon Hua Xiong.
Moreover, at this point, the arrow has been shot and there is no turning back.
Now that I have arrived at Sishui Pass, there are some things that I must do!
After Hua Xiong walked to the side for more than two hundred steps, Wu Qiong saw this place, which was neither too close nor too far, and stopped immediately.
Looking at Hua Xiong, the smile on his face suddenly became brighter...
"Governor Hua..."
He spoke...
