"Dong dong dong"
Yuan Luochuan led Ji Bu and Ying Bu to knock on the door of Wei Manor's room. Ji Bu and Ying Bu were both bold and skilled, daring to follow Yuan Luochuan deep into the enemy camp with their own abilities!
However, Yuan Luochuan knocked on the door for a long time and realized that no one was opening it. He turned around and smiled awkwardly at Ji Bu and Ying Bu, then pushed the door open and went in.
Ji Bu and Ying Bu weren't really boorish. They waited for Yuan Luochuan to enter and observed the surroundings. When they realized that there was no one in the room, they looked at each other and followed him in with some doubts.
Yuan Luochuan felt terrible. These two Senior Brothers were really not loyal. Didn't they say that they would wait for me in the room? Why can't I see a single person? How am I supposed to explain this to Ji Bu and Ying Bu?
Yuan Luochuan didn't even dare to turn around to look at Ying Bu's murderous gaze.
"You guys…" He laughed dryly.
However, before he could finish his sentence, Yuan Luochuan turned around and froze." What the f * ck? What's going on?"”
Ji Bu and Ying Bu stopped two or three steps after they entered the door. They stood there without daring to move, and two cold and merciless swords were placed on their necks. Yuan Luochuan believed that if the two of them dared to move or say a word, the two swords would cut their throats without hesitation.
Wei Zhuang, who was holding Ying Bu with his shark teeth, said coldly,""Close the door."
Only then did Yuan Luochuan come back to his senses. He cursed himself for being useless and obediently ran to close the door. Then, he came over and looked at the four people in front of him with a troubled expression.
In fact, he didn't have any ill intentions towards Ji Bu and Ying Bu. In history, they had followed Xiang Yu to conquer the world. If possible, Yuan Luochuan didn't want anything to happen to them.
Ying Bu had a fiery temper, and now that he felt cheated by Yuan Luochuan, he immediately cursed,""You little brat, despicable person. To think that we two brothers trusted you so much. So you're actually like this. We're really blind.”
On the other hand, Ji Bu was much calmer. He simply asked,"Brother Yuan, what's going on?”
Yuan Luochuan said to his two senior brothers,""Brother Zhuang, Brother Nie, why don't you let them go first? They're just here to ask about what happened last night.”
Yuan Luochuan deeply remembered what Elder Huang, Guigu 'zi, had said. He must not let anyone know that he had anything to do with him for the next ten years.
Therefore, people like Ji Bu and Ying Bu, who could hide it, should try not to expose it. For people like Xiao Meng, it was better to let him know that he had the Ghost Valley Token and that it was Wei Zhuang and Ge Nie who taught him.
Wei Zhuang and Ge Nia were extremely intelligent, so how could they not hear Yuan Luochuan's undertones? They put away their swords and stood to the side, watching Ji Bu and Ying Bu, clearly waiting for their next move.
Seeing the sword on their necks being removed, Ji Bu and the other man heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, they felt a lingering fear.
Just a moment ago, when they entered the room, they didn't sense anyone else's presence. They had only taken a few steps when Ge Nia and Wei Zhuang, who were hiding behind the door, subdued one of them with their swords.
Because their backs were facing Ge Nia, Ji Bu and the others did not know who was standing behind them. They only felt that since they could threaten them when they were unprepared, the two people behind them must be much, much stronger than them.
When Ji Bu and Wei Zhuang turned to look at Ge Nie and Wei Zhuang, the shock in their hearts grew even greater.
"May I ask if the two of you are Ge Nie and Wei Zhuang of Zongheng?" Ji Bu asked doubtfully.”
Wei Zhuang ignored them and looked at the two in front of him with interest. Out of courtesy, Ge Nia nodded and said,"I've long heard of the reputation of Great General Ji and Great General Ying of Chu Country. Today, seeing them, they are indeed valiant.”
If Yuan Luochuan had said the same thing, Ji Bu would have been suspicious, but if Ge Nie had said it, even if the two knew it was just a courtesy, it would still be more useful.
However, Ji Bu, Ying Bu, and Ge Nia belonged to two different camps. Although the State of Qin had yet to threaten the State of Chu, it did not mean that it would not in the future. Thus, it was destined that the two of them and Ge Nia would not be able to become friends.
"Since when did the two people from Zongheng stay in the same room peacefully?”
Before Ge Nia could explain, Wei Zhuang said,"What does this have to do with you?"
"You…"
After being scolded by Wei Zhuang, how could Ying Bu's fiery temper tolerate the sand in his eyes? There were signs that he would start a fight if there was any disagreement. Ji Bu and Ying Bu had been together for so long, so how could he not know what kind of temper his old friend had? He hurriedly pulled him back, indicating that he should not be impulsive.
What a joke, how are we supposed to fight against the two from the School of Political Traversing? We are generals, and we are capable only if we have an army. Without an army, how are we going to fight against the martial artists? Moreover, he was fighting against two top experts.
On the other hand, Ge Nia didn't try to stop the fight. If you want to fight, I'm not afraid.
In reality, people could change. Ge Nia was currently in his prime, so who wasn't young and frivolous? Just like the snow maidens, they might become cold and unapproachable in a few years after experiencing the ways of the world. But now, she was just a child in her teens. It was inevitable that she would act and speak in a childish manner.
So, don't think that Ge Nia is a good person. Those who say he is good are on the same side as him. If you became his enemy, he would kill without mercy. Didn't you see how he killed 300 Qin soldiers in the Waning Moon Valley and a group of Qin soldiers in the Traps City?
Ji Bu turned around and said apologetically to Wei Zhuang and Ge Nie,"You two, we didn't mean to offend you. It's just that we lost an important person here last night, so we hope that you can tell us what happened last night and if there were any special people.”
Upon hearing this, Yuan Luochuan, who had been standing at the side for a long time, stepped forward to smooth things over. After all, he was the one who brought them here. He didn't know how his two senior brothers would torture him after they left.
Yuan Luochuan first told them what he had seen. Actually, there was nothing much to add to Wei Zhuang's story. On the other hand, Ge Nia said that he had seen a black-clothed person pass by the house before he entered, but because he was in a hurry to meet up with Wei Zhuang, he did not pay too much attention to him.
"Then when did you find that person?”Ji Bu asked in confusion.
"It's a quarter past midnight." This time, it was Wei Zhuang who spoke.
Ge Nia was a little confused, but he quickly understood the reason and said,"That's right, it's indeed a quarter past midnight.”
"Big Brother Zhuang, how did you know it was a quarter past midnight?" Yuan Luochuan asked curiously.”
Wei Zhuang looked at him as if he was an idiot and said coldly,"When that person passed by the roof, his aura leaked out. You were too weak, so you didn't feel it.”
"Then why don't you go out and take a look?" Yuan Luochuan retorted with a flushed face.
Wei Zhuang said indifferently," That person has no ill intentions towards me, so it has nothing to do with me. If I have to care about everything, wouldn't I be busy to death?" Besides, his senior was outside at that time. If anything happened, he would have found out.”
"Then, is there anything special that happened?" Ji Bu asked with some distress. Did anyone else leave here last night?”
Yuan Luochuan thought for a moment. Special circumstances? There shouldn't be any special circumstances. After that, he would be with his two senior brothers. Even if there was a problem, they would find out.
Just as he was about to shake his head, Ying Bu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said,"Just now, I heard from the shopkeeper that a white-haired girl went out from here last night. Do you have any impression of her?”
Yuan Luochuan suddenly remembered that Xiaomeng had left the place yesterday. However, she had also suffered internal injuries. Besides, she was just a child. She couldn't possibly be the murderer, right?
Wei Zhuang also knew that this matter could not be hidden. As long as Ji Bu and the others wanted to investigate, Xiaomeng's appearance would definitely be found out, so he said bluntly,"That girl is called Xiaomeng. She suffered some internal injuries here last night.”
In fact, Wei Zhuang's words were a little suspicious of helping Xiaomeng. First, he said that she had suffered internal injuries here, so it was impossible for her to kill someone. She also pointed out that she was the last disciple of the sect leader of the Daoist Heaven Sect. Therefore, even if she killed someone, the Chu Country could not do anything to her.
Knowing what he wanted, Ji Bu did not want to stay any longer. He stood up and said,"In that case, we'll take our leave first. If there's a need, we'll ask you again.”
After the two of them left, Yuan Luochuan thought that his senior martial brother would teach him a lesson. However, Wei Zhuang said playfully,""Daoists, the School of Political Traversers, Chu Country, Qin Country. Brother, this seems interesting.”
