Chapter 362 Ancient Blood Oath

On the stage, Qi Ling put her messy hair behind her ears and said with a smile: "What are you doing? The child is having fun."

Su Motong's face was flushed, and she couldn't close her mouth when she was laughing. She was so happy that her nose was full of snot bubbles.

Su Mo was so angry that he glared: "You are so cruel. You threw the child out as soon as the stage was set up. There was not even a safety rope. What if she fell and got hurt?!"

Qi Ling pointed behind him: "Don't worry, someone is watching on the sidelines. If she is thrown off, they will catch her."

Su Mo turned his head and saw Dongdong standing by the elastic mat with potato chips in his hand, giving him a thumbs up from a distance.

Su Mo was speechless: "Goodbye, I'll take the baby back to sleep."

He took Su Motong back to the room and prepared to rest.

When he came out of the shower, Su Mo found her leaning against the French window, looking at the night view in a daze.

Su Mo sat next to her and asked with concern: "Mo Tong, what's wrong?"

Su Mo Tong raised her head, her big eyes full of innocence: "Dad, I want to play with them in the future."

Su Mo was stunned for a moment: "They? Who do you mean?"

"Everyone!" Su Mo Tong bent her little fingers and muttered, "I want to play with Sister Nuo Bai. Her cat is very cute and furry. It's so comfortable to hug."

"And Sister Dong and Brother K. Although it's tiring to exercise with them, they are interesting to talk to and are very encouraging. It's very fun to be with them. Motivation."

"Uncle Chu also took me to fly kites and chase butterflies in the park, told me many fairy tales, and bought me delicious food."

"And, and, and mom, she is the best, knows everything, I learned today... free fall, parabola, and the three laws of mechanics!"

Speaking of this, Su Motong gently grabbed Su Mo's hand and said carefully: "Dad, I want to play with them tomorrow"

Su Motong's words caused quite a stir in Su Mo's heart, and he suddenly realized that he might have done something wrong.

Thinking back to when he was a child, his parents sometimes didn't let him play with some friends, the reasons were nothing more than "that kid didn't do well in school" and "he would lead you astray" and so on.

In fact, from Su Mo's perspective at the time, those "bad kids" in the eyes of his parents were all his good friends, and he was very happy to play with them.

But because his parents didn't allow it, he and those friends gradually drifted apart, and many friendships were interrupted.

To be fair, parents' concerns are of course based on their own considerations. It cannot be said that they did anything wrong. After all, they just want to protect their children.

But many times, this kind of protection actually leaves children with many regrets that are difficult to make up for.

When Su Mo grew up, he once thought that if he had his own children in the future, he must respect the subjective wishes of the children and give them enough freedom.

But now that a child really came from the sky, he suddenly lost his sense of proportion and instinctively became like his parents, imprisoning her in the name of doing good for Su Mo Tong.

Thinking of this, Su Mo couldn't help but smile helplessly.

Maybe this is the nature of being a parent.

Su Mo calmed down, gently touched Su Mo Tong's head, and said softly: "Mo Tong, Dad has lost his temper these two days. You can find anyone to play with in the future, as long as you are happy and safe."

"Yeah!" Su Mo Tong looked at Su Mo with longing, and the bright lights outside the window were reflected in his eyes, as if a galaxy was shining.

Su Mo helped her cover the quilt and whispered, "Go to sleep, Daddy has to sleep too, and we have to get up early tomorrow."

Su Motong lay on the pillow and looked at him curiously, "What is Dad going to do tomorrow?"

Su Mo looked out the window and smiled meaningfully, "To meet a companion."

Early spring in March, the season when flowers bloom.

And this spring of the 153rd year of Dawn is destined to leave a strong and colorful mark in the history of Crescent City.

On the "Wolf Peak Mountain" with the highest altitude outside Crescent City, the frozen ground in late winter is gradually thawing, and the melted snow water gathers into clear streams, which shine crystal clear in the sunshine, like flowing silver ribbons.

The trees have grown new green branches and leaves, and the tender green leaves are swaying in the breeze, and the air is filled with the fresh scent of flowers and plants.

The road to the top of the mountain has been blocked by special vehicles of various media, and drones for filming can be seen everywhere.

Some of the elite mercenaries from Moxue and Edge were guarding the main roads of the mountain, while others were on single-soldier flying vehicles in the air, guarding the safety of the place meticulously.

The two protagonists of all this today were standing in the center of the mountain.

An altar was set up here, with a spacious solid wood table covered with white silk, on which were placed rice, wheat, millet, beans, and sorghum.

Next to the grains, a pair of ancient bronze vessels were placed, with exquisite shapes. One was engraved with a snowflake pattern symbolizing Moxue, and the other was engraved with a red umbrella symbolizing Edge, with the copper color exuding an ancient luster.

The incense burner with ancient patterns carved on it burned quietly, and wisps of winding smoke emerged from it, lingering with the mist that had not yet dissipated in the morning, revealing the solemnity of the ceremony everywhere.

In front of the altar, two figures, one tall and one short, stood face to face. They were Su Mo and Shangguan Li.

The wind blew the white shirts of the two men, and their eyes met, solemn and solemn.

Su Mo took the lead in picking up the knife on the altar, put it close to his palm and cut it, and blood oozed out.

He raised his bloody hand to the porcelain bowl in front of the grains, and let it drip, and the scarlet liquid made a crisp dripping sound in the bowl.

Following Su Mo, Shangguan Li also picked up another knife, cut his palm, and also dripped blood into the bowl.

The blood of the two people blended together.

Finally, they all put their fingers into the bowl, stained the mixed blood, and smeared it around their mouths.

The blood left scarlet marks on the faces of the two people, and also closely linked their fates together.

Blood oath.

This is an ancient ritual with a very long history.

In today's technologically advanced era, ancient things are often no longer popular, but the mercenary industry, which has an equally long history, enjoys this.

In the mercenary world, when two mercenary leaders swear blood, it means that the two teams will form a blood alliance from now on, advance and retreat together, and share honor and disgrace.

The blood oath ceremony is not uncommon, and many mercenary groups with good relationships will do this ceremony.

Of course, in this industry where interests are paramount, there are very few people or teams who can truly fulfill the blood alliance.

When there is mutual benefit, everyone will naturally be fine.

Whenever there is a conflict of interest, it is not uncommon for blood alliances to tear each other apart, and when disaster strikes, they will fly away.

If it were in the past, the blood oath between Su Mo and Shangguan Li would only be regarded as an ordinary ceremony and would not attract such attention.

But after the beast crisis not long ago, everything is different.

Anyone who has experienced the disaster personally will never forget that scene.

At the moment when all hope was lost, Mo Xue and the Edge mercenaries stepped forward resolutely, raining down on the battlefield, and guarding the city shoulder to shoulder.

And you have to know that at that time, Su Mo's whereabouts were unknown, and Shangguan Li was wearing the badges of Mo Xue and Edge at the same time, directly commanding the two mercenary groups.

This is an extremely amazing strategic trust, which means that Su Mo can already entrust his life and property to Shangguan Li, and vice versa, and the two sides are truly inseparable.

Under this premise, no one can question the value of the blood oath ceremony.

And more importantly, it is the meaning behind this blood oath ceremony.

At that time, Mo Xue and Edge stood up to protect the people. On the contrary, the most powerful Death Scythe Mercenary Group in Xinyue City, led by the "King of Mercenaries" Zhou Hannian, chose to help the powerful escape.

This huge contrast has caused a kind of argument among the people of Xinyue City-the Death Scythe is no longer worthy of staying in their position, and Zhou Hannian is not qualified to be the King of Mercenaries.

But if we talk about who can really overthrow Zhou Hannian, the legend in the industry, any of the younger generations are too young to be singled out.

The deep meaning of Su Mo and Shangguan Li swearing blood at this time and signing an unshakable blood oath is extremely intriguing.

Many people believe that this is a signal of showing their edge.

The best rookie of Shuguang 151 and the best rookie of Shuguang 152, the two supernovas will combine their strengths to challenge the king of mercenaries.

Recently, hot events have emerged in an endless stream, and the happiest ones are undoubtedly the various media.

In the past, when there was nothing to report, they had to rack their brains to think of topics and get attention. Sometimes they had to make up fake news for KPI, which was really a painful mask for media editors.

And the recent events, especially the various phenomena during the beast crisis, not only brought enough topics, but any one of them could be hotly discussed for more than half a month.

This morning, "New Moon Morning" arranged a special edition talk show.

Two popular hosts and guests were sitting in front of the camera in suits and leather shoes, chatting vividly about the beast crisis some time ago.

The host said slowly: "Since the beast crisis ended, the border area has been severely damaged and is no longer suitable for living before repair and reconstruction, so the border refugees are currently resettled in the Rust Wall area of ​​the inner city."

"In addition to ordinary people, there are also many members of violent groups among these refugees."

"Just yesterday, according to our reporter, several thugs were arrested in the resettlement area for robbing women. After investigation, it was found that they were all members of the Crow's Nest and the Dead Ash Gang."

"Looking back, the Crow's Nest and the Dead Ash Gang were both on the throne of "King of the Border", well-equipped and brutal, making the entire border tremble under their tyranny. "

"But during the beast crisis, the performance of these two violent groups was really shocking. Their leaders Hong Chenle and Abraham fled overnight after the disaster broke out, and the rest of the thugs also fled, and those who couldn't escape mixed in with the crowd to survive, which was really ugly. "

The guest interrupted the host at the right time: "Hey, buddy, there's no need to be so euphemistic, let me say it. "

After saying that, he raised his thumbs to the camera and started to spit shit: "You bunch of useless people who grew up eating *civilized border*, you still have the nerve to call yourself the king of the border, I'm the king of your *civilized new moon*!"

"A bunch of spineless newborns, I think you just went to the toilet in the middle of the night with a light on and ate too much *civilized dawn*, get out of New Moon City, you bunch of bastards are not welcome here!"

The host smiled with relief, covering his chest: "It's good to scold, my mammary glands are unblocked."

There was laughter from the audience, and the show effect was directly maximized.

After laughing, the host's expression became serious, and he said with sparkling eyes: "Where there is darkness, there is also light. In the face of disaster, there are cowards who live in disgrace, and naturally there are heroes who stand up."

"Gordon, a king forgotten by the times, stood up resolutely when the people in the border areas needed help the most, and sacrificed himself to blow up the tunnel worm tunnel. This great feat moved each of us."

"Not long ago, at Mr. Gordon's funeral, we also witnessed a very shocking scene. All members of the Alpha Team of the Anti-Violence Section 4, led by Captain Ivan, Came to the scene and knelt down in front of the coffin to repent. "

"The Public Security Bureau has not yet responded publicly to this matter. We are not sure whether this is an official instruction from the City Council or the personal behavior of the Alpha team. What do you think, brother?"

The guest changed his previous spitting appearance and said slowly: "I also saw that incident on the Internet. The performance of the authorities in this beast crisis is really disappointing."

"Regarding the behavior of the Alpha team, if these people are pretending to represent the authorities, then I wish them to eat instant noodles without seasoning packets in this life."

"But if that was their personal behavior after they came to their senses and repented from the bottom of their hearts, I think these guys can still be saved, and everyone doesn't need to blame them too much."

At this point, the guest's tone became enthusiastic: "Hey, have you heard that sentence? I heard from the people at the scene that it was the wolf king Fenrir who told Ivan personally - stand up, you are a warrior, don't let anything break your spine!"

"Oh my God, I can only say that this is so cool! Big sister is the best in the world!"

The host opened his mouth in surprise and said seriously: "Oh, oh, buddy, you just What did you shout? Big Sister? We are live streaming, we cannot openly worship the leader of a violent group, otherwise there will be problems. ”

The guest spread his hands and said very calmly: "What's the problem? I don't worship the big sister who physically holds the line in the northern area of ​​the border and blows up countless ferocious beasts. Do I have to worship the trash of the authorities who hide behind the rusty wall?"

"Although I am not a border person, I still have to say one thing - Wolf Raid, our king! Fenrir, the king of the border!"

While shouting, he took off the outermost coat, revealing a black leather jacket with a red wolf head embroidered on it.

This kind of leather jacket has become popular recently, and it is a complete imitation of the uniforms of Wolf Raid members.

During the ferocious beast crisis, Wolf Raid's heroic act of taking the lead not only made the border people cry, but also made countless inner city people admire it.

Various cultural symbols related to Wolf Raid began to sweep the streets and alleys of Crescent City, and various handmade products related to wolves were sold out.

Even the children in the school were learning to greet each other by howling like wolves. The whole campus was filled with howling sounds after class.

The wolf-head leather jacket on the guest was undoubtedly the most popular item. It was said that the factories in the northern industrial development zone were still in short supply even when the machines were smoking.

The host nervously stepped forward to stop the guest and tried to block the camera with his hands: "Martin, don't do that, don't do that, Martin."

The guest wore a wolf-head leather jacket and walked back and forth in front of the camera to show it despite the host's dissuasion, bringing cheers from the audience.

As the host stopped him, the anxious look on his face suddenly disappeared, and he said seriously: "Okay, then I won't pretend anymore."

He also took off his coat, revealing the same wolf-head leather jacket inside, and linked arms with the guest, happily dancing the cha-cha in front of the camera, bringing the cheers of the audience and the density of live barrage to the peak.

In the public lounge of the entertainment area on the 80th floor of the Edge Building, Su Mo and others were watching this talk show. The dense barrage had completely covered the screen, and the whole screen was filled with——

[Lang Xi, our king! ]

[Fenrir, the king of the border! ]

Dong Dong sighed: "Lang Xi is so awesome this time. The people are in favor of them. No other group can compete with them."

After saying that, she found that there was no response, so she turned her head and looked over: "Hey, boss, why are you so serious?"

Su Mo frowned slightly, squinted at the screen and said: "This is not a good thing."

Dong Dong was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?"

Before Su Mo could answer, his phone suddenly rang. It was Troy, the second person in Lang Xi, calling.

Su Mo picked up and greeted: "Good morning, have you watched today's "New Moon Morning"? Your fame has already..."

"Captain Su!" Troy interrupted Su Mo directly. His voice was filled with fear, and he said in an almost pleading tone, "Can you come to the resettlement area? Save my sister!" (End of this chapter)
