Every city would use its gorgeous coat to cover up the haze in the depths, and the more prosperous it was, the more so. Every day, they welcomed countless young people with dreams and sent away countless middle-aged people who were scarred and had nothing. This was the law, the ruthless law of the city.
For some reason, Yuan Luochuan, who had taken a break from his busy schedule, was sitting in a small tea shop by the roadside. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Perhaps it was because he had found the shadow of his old life in this small Flying Arc Town.
However, Yuan Luochuan tossed this thought to the back of his mind in the blink of an eye. He didn't have much time to feel the sorrow of the world. It seemed that Ji Bu and the others didn't force Yuan Luochuan to do anything, but Yuan Luochuan felt uneasy.
"Those two senior brothers of mine are really something. It's been so long and we still haven't seen them. I don't know what they're busy with.”Yuan Luochuan thought unhappily.
After all, this case had been brewing in secret for a long time. The geographical location of Flying Arc Town was sensitive to begin with, and now that a minister of Chu State had died, this place was almost the territory of Qin State.
It could almost be described as panic. Perhaps it was a matter that affected the entire situation. This place might become the breakthrough point for the Qin country to open up the remaining few big countries. Then this place would definitely be the main battlefield that everyone would fight for.
How many commoners want to fight?
In the time it took Yuan Luochuan to drink a cup of tea, he had already heard no less than five versions of the " truth." It was giving him a headache.
Joining in the fun and spreading rumors were really the " traditional virtues " of the famous Chinese people. They had already been so skilled in playing with it since more than 2,000 years ago in the Qin country.
However, Yuan Luochuan did hear some useful information. There were 100,000 Chu and Qi troops stationed 300 miles away from Flying Arc Town. It seemed that they came with ill intentions.
However, the strange thing was that the State of Qin did not seem to have any reaction, as if they did not know about this.
Yuan Luochuan was puzzled. Wasn't Flying Arc Town a battleground for military strategists? The State of Qin had no reaction even when the enemy's army was approaching the city. Yuan Luochuan even began to suspect that he had met a fake Ying Zheng. This was not his style at all.
But thinking about it, if he had figured out Ying Zheng's thoughts, why would he still need to learn martial arts from him? He would have long gone to conquer the world.
However, with his looks, if he were to wear a military uniform, he would definitely be able to charm a bunch of ancient uniformed fans. No matter what, Yuan Luochuan thought so, and he was very firm in his thoughts.
Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps broke Yuan Luochuan's reverie. He saw the Chu army led by Ying Bu. The formation was neat and very formal. He didn't know where they were going.
Ji Bu followed beside Ying Bu. He also saw Yuan Luochuan sitting in the tea shop. He rushed forward and whispered a few words to Ying Bu before leaving the group and walking towards Yuan Luochuan. Along the way, Yuan Luochuan could clearly feel Ying Bu frowning, as if he was a little dissatisfied.
Yuan Luochuan did not want to deal with Ji Bu from the bottom of his heart. In the past, Ji Bu was a person who valued relationships and loyalty and kept his promises. But now, Yuan Luochuan could feel that he had a deep and unfathomable shrewdness. This kind of person had the potential to be a formidable person.
Out of courtesy, Yuan Luochuan cupped his hands and greeted,""Brother Ji Bu."
Ji Bu returned the greeting, appearing much more sincere than Yuan Luochuan. However, Yuan Luochuan didn't feel the same way. He liked to think of people in a bad light. At the very least, Yuan Luochuan realized that in such a chaotic world, there was nothing wrong with him doing so.
"This little brother apologizes for the trouble I brought to Brother Yuan today.”Ji Bu said with a smile.
Yuan Luochuan hadn't expected this. He said,""No, no, I don't know if Brother Ji Bu has caught the murderer?”
Ji Bu just smiled and said lightly,"So what if you catch him?" So what if you didn't catch him?"
Sigh, Yuan Luochuan hated dealing with people like this the most. They were so troublesome and couldn't even talk nicely.
Even so, Yuan Luochuan could sense that Ji Bu didn't want to discuss this matter further.
"Then I don't have any problems, right?" Yuan Luochuan asked cautiously.
Ji Bu looked deeply at Yuan Luochuan, until Yuan Luochuan's heart went numb. Then, he said,""Of course."
She secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Since it had nothing to do with her, why would Yuan Luochuan be afraid? Unknowingly, he had become much more unyielding.
"But…"
Ji Bu's next sentence made Yuan Luochuan's heart skip a beat.
Seemingly able to read Yuan Luochuan's thoughts, Ji Bu smiled and said,""Brother Yuan, don't worry. I'm just curious about your relationship with Phantom Valley's Zongheng. You two aren't as simple as friends.”
Yuan Luochuan was rendered speechless. How was he supposed to explain this? Could it be that he was the third disciple of Phantom Valley?
"Um…"
Yuan Luochuan could only put on a show and said,""Brother Ji Bu, you're worrying too much. I've only met the two from Phantom Valley by chance, so how could we have any special friendship?”
Ji Bu naturally didn't believe Yuan Luochuan's words, but he didn't feel too conflicted. Instead, he said with a deeper meaning,""Since that's the case, then I won't ask any more questions. I still have some matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave first. I hope Brother Yuan will take care of yourself. I hope that we can have a good chat when we meet again in the future.”
Yuan Luochuan's mind was filled with black lines as he said happily,""Definitely, definitely."
After he finished speaking, Ji Bu didn't stay any longer. He turned around and chased after the Chu army, leaving a dazed Yuan Luochuan behind.
Yuan Luochuan felt that Ji Bu's words were hinting at something, but he couldn't put his finger on it. However, no matter what, this matter was already in the past.
However, Yuan Luochuan couldn't help but complain when he thought about it. Someone had died next door for no reason, and then he had been abandoned by his two senior brothers. He had been living his life in fear, only to realize that they didn't seem to be looking for trouble at all. From the beginning to the end, he was the only one who was in fear.
"What is this?" Yuan Luochuan thought helplessly.
After paying for the tea, Yuan Luochuan turned around and walked back to the restaurant he was staying in. After all, someone had died there before, so it was not suitable for him to stay there anymore. Yuan Luochuan planned to go back and pack his things so that he could move to another place as soon as possible.
The strange thing was that there was no one in the restaurant, which made it seem a little eerie. Yuan Luochuan wasn't too timid, but he definitely wasn't too big either. Right now, all he wanted to do was to quickly grab his bag and leave.
But as soon as he pushed the door open, Yuan Luochuan was shocked.
Two people covered in blood stood in his room. The already dark room made them look even more ferocious.
Yuan Luochuan was so frightened that he cried out," Holy sh * t! Which demon dares to be so impudent in front of your Grandpa Yuan? Do you know that your Grandpa Yuan is the 108th generation successor of the Heavenly Teacher Zhang Daoling? He specializes in fighting demons and ghosts, and he specializes in dealing with all kinds of disobedient people. Hurry up and reveal your true form!"”
These words sounded majestic, but Yuan Luochuan's tightly shut eyes and his hand that was casually drawing in the air perfectly destroyed the aura.
Just as he was thinking about how he should die, Yuan Luochuan felt someone knock his head. It was extremely painful.
"Aiyo." Yuan Luochuan cried out in pain.
A scholar can be killed, but not humiliated. You can hit me, scold me, or kill me, but you can't hit my head.
Yuan Luochuan mustered up his remaining courage and wanted to fight to the death with the two ghosts.
However, when Yuan Luochuan opened his eyes, the more he looked at the two people in front of him, the more familiar they looked. Oh my god, why did these ghosts look so similar to my two senior brothers?
"Senior…Senior Brother?"”
Wei Zhuang said coldly,"Weren't you very powerful when you were fighting with Xiaomeng? Why did you forget everything I taught you?"”
It was really Senior Brother!
The ups and downs of life came too quickly. He thought that he was dead for sure this time.
However, how could the two of them be in such a sorry state?
Yuan Luochuan didn't care about Wei Zhuang's sarcasm at all. Instead, he asked with interest,""Brother, how did you two become like this? There's actually someone in the world who can beat the two of you up like this? Am I seeing things?"
Wei Zhuang suppressed the urge to kill and said fiercely,"Mind your own business. The following itinerary has changed. We won't go to the Ghost Valley anymore. You and senior martial brother will go directly to the State of Qin.”
(Give me some flowers or something. If it's a VIP, give me some collectibles. Don't be too stingy.)
