Carefree raised his hands and said," We surrender. Hey, can't we surrender?"”
Everyone seemed to be stunned by Carefree's sudden action. No one expected Carefree to use such a gesture to wait for arrest. The sword-wielding young master was the first to react. He shouted,"Li Wei! Take him down!"
"Yes, sir!" Li Wei was the soldier who was talking to Carefree. He pulled out his sword and placed it in front of Carefree's neck.
"Ya, brother, can you be more refined? You just need to grab my hand or my shoulder. Look, this guy feels cold to the touch. You know, we scholars are most afraid of this guy. Heh, make an exception?"
"Pass my ass! I like to be arrogant like this. What, you have something to say, don't you?”Li Wei pressed his sword against Carefree's face, his mouth full of saliva, making Carefree feel disgusted. Alas, the word 'refined' could not be used as a meal nowadays. Of course, Carefree was speechless.
Carefree was helpless, but Zhao Dagang was brave. He saw Carefree being held by Li Wei's sword and was furious. He lifted Li Wei up with his big hand. Zhao Dagang grabbed Li Wei's clothes and said fiercely,""You actually dare to threaten my big brother with a sword? Kid, are you tired of living?”
"Quick, take down this big guy!”
Li Wei quickly called for help, and the surrounding soldiers rushed forward. Zhao Dagang picked up Li Wei in a hurry and swept away the army. When everyone saw how fierce Zhao Dagang was, they were afraid. Who dared to come up? Carefree, on the other hand, almost got caught in the crossfire when Zhao Dagang swept away the army just now, so he took advantage of the chaos to slip away.
Just as Carefree was feeling pleased with himself, a sword light flashed across his eyes. Carefree's nerves immediately twitched. His extremely sensitive senses told him that danger was right in front of him. Carefree hurriedly retreated. As he retreated, he lost his balance and fell backward. Another unlucky person became Carefree's meat cushion.
"You're all a bunch of trash! All of you! Arrest these two traitors!"
Seeing that his attack had failed, the young master thought about how the two men had come here despite knowing that the Imperial Concubine was mourning, so he concluded that Carefree was an unfathomable person. Thus, he became wary and decided to test Carefree's true strength on those idle guards.
Seeing that the young master was angry, the crowd did not dare to slack off. They drew their swords and prepared to capture Carefree and the other two. The battle was about to start. Suddenly, Carefree untied the broad sword on his back and raised it above his head. He shouted,"Wait! I'm Lord Yuwen's trusted aide, who dares to take me!”
As soon as he said that, everyone froze and looked at Carefree suspiciously.
Seeing that the soldiers had stopped moving, Carefree let out a long sigh of relief. At the same time, he cursed himself for being stupid. If he had said it just now, this situation would not have happened. Carefree held his broadsword and said to the young master,""I am Carefree. Lord Yuwen sent me here.”
Oh, this was just a lie made up by Carefree. However, Carefree really couldn't think of a better excuse. Anyway, this sentence wouldn't reach Yuwen Huaji's ears, because Carefree believed that these people were cowardly dogs! As long as he exerted a little pressure, these people would be swallowed like a bottle. Carefree was secretly delighted.
"Humph, how dare you pretend to be Lord Yuwen's trusted aide! Someone come-"
"You don't believe me? Then I'll show you!”Carefree interrupted the man and smiled evilly, revealing a row of white teeth. Carefree handed his sword to Zhao Dagang. At this time, Zhao Dagang had already put down Li Wei and stood beside Carefree. Carefree held the broad sword with his right hand and pulled it out. A clear cry broke through the air like a green dragon appearing in the sky." This sword is the token given to me by Lord Yuwen. Seeing the sword is like seeing Lord Yuwen!”
The young master was obviously very close to Yuwen Huaji. He had heard that Yuwen Huaji had spent a lot of effort on this western wide sword. He had specially brought people to Wuxi to ask a famous craftsman to forge it. Later, he heard that this sword was handed over to the disciple of the number one craftsman in the martial arts world, Souniu. The disciple of Souniu seemed to be called Xiaoyao. Thinking of this, the young master was relieved. Since it was sent by Yuwen Huaji, it could be said that both parties were on the same boat. The young master bowed to Carefree and said,"I am Gu Han Xuan, a third-grade imperial guard with a saber. Today, I am ordered to protect the Imperial Concubine. If I offended you just now, please forgive me.”
"It's easy to say. Everyone is working for His Majesty at the same time.”As he spoke, he sheathed his sword and carried it on his back again. Carefree took the sword from Zhao Dagang and cupped his hands at Gu Hanxuan." I was only ordered to come to Daming Temple to get the Sacred Sword-forging Water. I didn't mean to offend Master Kong. Heh, let's just forget about what happened just now."”Carefree suddenly realized that he was really a genius at lying. He had even made up the story of the Sword Saint of Continuous Casting. In fact, Xiaoyao only knew that every temple had its own spring, and this spring was extremely pure and could be drunk as dew, so the term holy water came up.
"Of course, we're all family, so there's no need to talk about each other. The Imperial Concubine was in the main hall. The Imperial Concubine had said that she would mourn quietly in the temple for three days and that she should not be disturbed unless there was a major event. This was already the third day. After tonight, the Imperial Concubine would return to the palace. I don't think the holy water that brother Xiaoyao wants is in the main hall. If that's the case, then I'll lead the way.”
"It's hard to say, but generally speaking, holy water isn't placed in the main hall. I can go find it myself, there's no need to trouble Brother Gu.”After saying that, Carefree brought Zhao Dagang straight into the gate of Daming Temple.
Looking at Xiaoyao's back, Gu Hanxuan muttered to himself,"There won't be any changes, right? Has Yuwen Huaji given up on me?”
Daming Temple was said to be the most famous scenic spot in Yangzhou. It had a long history and was an ancient temple in the Central Plains. It was first built during the Ming Dynasty of Emperor Xiaowu of the Southern Song Dynasty, so it was called "Ming Temple". The courtyard in the temple was deep and quiet, and even a rough person like Zhao Dagang did not dare to be too ostentatious on the bluestone road. His footsteps were also light, like a beautiful daughter from a humble family.
Carefree didn't know the way, and he was also super blind. As they walked, the two of them actually arrived in front of the Great Buddha Hall. A woman dressed in luxurious clothes was kneeling on a bluestone pillow in front of the hall. She had a head of shoulder-length hair that was black in color and hung down like a waterfall. Just by looking at its back, Carefree could see its true appearance. Carefree couldn't help but think of a beautiful fairy painting.
"Big brother, look, a monk died there.”
Zhao Dagang suddenly said when Carefree was lost in his thoughts. Carefree felt the air around him suddenly gather and drop. Then, he saw the woman's back that was as cold as ice.
"Cough cough, yes, a monk died in the temple.”Carefree said softly. He did not give the woman a chance to turn around and say," I didn't know that India had another Buddha. Life and death were determined by fate. Birth, aging, illness, and death were a reality that humans could never escape. Instead of being sad and sorrowful, it was better to be alone and to comfort the master's spirit in heaven. It didn't matter whether Kingdom of Heaven existed or not. What was important was whether this trip was the right one. Master Liaokong had been doing good deeds all his life, and he had gotten rid of all his worries. This was because the Buddha Lord had summoned him to the Land of Bliss.”
"A monk died in the temple, and India has a new Buddha.”After Carefree finished speaking, he heard the woman muttering about her selfish desires. It seemed that she was thinking about what Carefree had just said. As for Carefree, he had already guessed that the woman was the imperial concubine. Escape was the best strategy! Carefree pulled Zhao Dagang and quietly walked past the woman's back. Just as they were about to enter another temple, they heard a very pleasant female voice in the air. This voice sounded like the most beautiful sound in time.
"Young Master, please wait."
Young Master? Stop? No way!
Carefree pulled Zhao Dagang and ran away. Huhu, Carefree was determined to run as far as possible. It didn't matter if she was the imperial concubine or not. Anyway, he wouldn't be able to see her in the future. Even if she complained to Yang Guang, Carefree had Yuwen Huaji to support him. Now, everyone knew that Yang Guang was completely controlled by Yuwen Huaji.
"Big brother, why are you running so fast? Huff huff, I can't hold on anymore…I can't…I need to rest for a while.”Carefree ran for an unknown distance and suddenly found himself in an old forest. Carefree realized that he seemed to be lost, so he shook his head with a bitter smile. Carefree was also running out of breath, so he sat on the ground with Zhao Dagang and panted heavily.
" Big Brother..." Zhao Dagang was about to speak when he suddenly heard the sound of fighting coming from the depths of the forest.
"Shh, don't make a fuss. Come, let's go take a look."
"Ah, you want to leave again? Big brother, look at my feet. I'm not leaving. If you want to see, go and see for yourself.”
"Alright, wait for me here. I'll be back soon.”With that, Carefree ran into the forest.
