Chapter 199 Don’t believe it
Snow and ice.
Su Chengnan asked Uncle Fu and others to weave sixty pairs of straw sandals, distributed them to everyone, and asked everyone to tie them under their shoes to prevent slipping.
After she tried it, she felt it was pretty good, much better than before.
"Let's go, let's finish this quickly." She smiled at Bingsan.
"set off!"
"Yes!"
Just as the group was about to leave the military camp, Qingshan caught up with them.
"Miss, wait a minute."
"I'm going too!" He ran over panting, with a lot of white snowflakes on his head.
Su Chengnan thought he was here to persuade her not to go, but when she saw that he didn't stop her this time, she couldn't help but feel relieved.
"Let's go, we'll try to be back within an hour!"
As soon as she finished speaking, some of the soldiers that Li Shanqi had lent her stopped believing her. They snorted secretly and muttered something, but Su Chengnan didn't hear it clearly.
Qingshan was close. He frowned and glanced to the left, then said in a deep voice, "What did you say?"
The man's eyes dodged for a moment, and he quickly lowered his head and stepped back. "No, I didn't say anything."
"You'd better not say anything, otherwise..." Qingshan didn't finish his words, but the warning was obvious.
Su Chengnan felt that this was a little different from his usual behavior, which made her curious about what the other party had said that could make Qingshan, who was usually easy to talk to, so serious.
But the snow and wind showed no sign of stopping. Su Chengnan was thinking about leaving early and returning early, so he said, "Okay, let's go."
The group set off.
Facing the falling snow, we walked towards the river two miles to the left of Beiling.
"Hey!"
"You slow down!"
"Don't pull me, ah——"
I don’t know who slipped first and fell to the ground with a thud, and then many people around them fell down like bowling balls.
"Can't you just walk properly?!" The man who had been stared at by Qingshan before burst into anger and shouted loudly.
"It's just that the ground is slippery and I didn't see clearly! I didn't do it on purpose."
The little guy who fell first said something aggrieved and tried to stand up. Unfortunately, this place seemed to be against him, and he fell again after falling once.
With a bang!
He fell on his back again.
"What the hell is wrong with you?!"
"I fell down once because of you, and you're doing it again?"
"It's snowing so hard, why do you have to go fishing? It's really easy to talk without any back pain. Doesn't our life matter?"
He stood up, cursing, and shook the snow off his body. He looked like he had been hit by a firecracker, very irritable and reluctant.
Bingsan couldn't stand it any longer, "What are you talking about?"
"What am I talking about? Tell me what's wrong!" He huffed and rubbed his red, frozen nose, complaining, "You're willing to come out in this cold weather? You just got out of the battle, you're covered in wounds, and you haven't even recovered yet."
Bingsan wanted to go up and argue, but Su Chengnan reached out to stop him and shook his head slightly. Just as he was about to speak, Qingshan rushed over, pulled him aside and pushed him against a tree trunk.
"If you don't want this mouth of yours anymore, I'll tear it apart for you!"
"Why do you hit me?!"
"Just because you are disrespectful to Miss Su!"
At this time, others also tried to persuade him in a kind way.
"Yeah, Li Mutou, stop talking! Miss Su has helped us a lot before. If she wants to go ice fishing, we'll go too. It's no big deal!"
"That's right! Don't forget, if it weren't for the crossbow on the city wall that killed that damned thief, you would have been killed by the sword long ago. Don't be ungrateful."
This man's name is Li Mutou. He is as stiff as a log and easily ignites.
He spat on the ground. "It's true that the crossbow saved my life, but what does it have to do with her? You believe she designed that thing, but I don't believe it!"
Su Chengnan chuckled and thought that this person was quite interesting.
Do not believe?
Why don't you believe it?
Is he prejudiced against her, or is he prejudiced against women?
Qingshan glared at him, "Don't believe it? What right do you have to not believe it? This is something General Li, our Crown Prince, and even the entire army knows."
This man, however, was not afraid of Qingshan. He pushed him away with all his strength, his armor clanking. "I don't believe it! That thing was clearly made by those young men in the carpentry workshop!"
"At that time, Lieutenant General Chen and I went to the carpentry workshop several times. After repeated requests, the man named Liuzi finally agreed to meet General Li! Such a proud man is the creator of this powerful weapon! How could it be that delicate girl?"
"Tell me, is this realistic?!"
"A girl insisted on climbing the city wall, showing off! If it weren't for protecting her, how could my brother have been killed by the cannon?! Tell me, is it her fault?"
After hearing this, Su Chengnan finally understood the source of his emotional fluctuations.
However, she didn't care whether this person believed it or not. After all, she didn't need to prove anything to anyone when doing things. She was worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, and of everyone in the Beiling Army.
Moreover, if she had not done something at that time, the entire Su family and herself would have died at the hands of the White Bear Country cavalry, so she could be considered to have saved herself.
But it is still inappropriate for this person to speak like this in public.
Su Chengnan walked around Bingsan, walked to the front, and said in a deep voice:
"General Li arranged for you to come with me today. I know it's not easy for everyone. But military orders are as heavy as a mountain. With your attitude, do you respect your general and the discipline of the Beiling Army?!"
Li Mutou's face turned pale in an instant, and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by stubbornness, and he still held his neck stiff.
Su Chengnan raised his head, stared into his eyes, and said calmly, "I can understand that you lost your brothers, but military orders are as heavy as a mountain, and they are not to be trifled with! Every brother's sacrifice is blood shed for Dayong. We are all heartbroken, but this is no reason for you to openly question military orders. When you return to the camp, you will accept your punishment."
Li Mutou's clenched fists trembled slightly, and he answered with silence.
The snowflakes are still falling.
Others persuaded and reminded Su Chengnan: "Miss, why don't we leave quickly and take care of business first."
"Yes, yes, let's go fishing."
"That's right, maybe we can actually encounter some fish, right, hahahaha."
The laughter was awkward, but these people were laughing along.
At this time, someone reached out to pull Li Mutou's arm, asking him to stop standing there.
Seeing this, Su Chengnan retracted his gaze and took the first step forward, "Let's go."
"Yes! Miss!" Bingsan responded loudly.
Qingshan also pushed Li Mutou and said, "Alright, hurry up and leave. Stop talking nonsense."
Li Mutou clenched his hands tightly, and finally said nothing. He just stared at Su Su Chengnan's back fiercely...
