On the ancient mountain road, more than ten horses galloped past, bringing up a cloud of dust. Frightened birds scuttled from the trees. The leader, a man in a half-black, half-gray robe and a bamboo hat, kept urging his black horse.
" Whew!" The leader pulled the reins of the horse. The black horse neighed and raised its front hooves high, stopping. The rest of the team pulled the reins and stopped.
In front of him lay a young man dressed in the uniform of a Mo family disciple. He seemed to be injured and on the verge of death.
"Are you a disciple of the Mo Family?" The leader looked carefully and jumped off the horse.
The injured man saw the bamboo hat man coming down from the horse and struggled to bow." Brother…Disciple greets Giant!”
"How is the situation in the city?" The bamboo hat man supported the injured young man.
" Wei Manor has already broken through the City of Traps." The injured man's eyes were filled with tears as he sobbed,"" Teacher Xu, Master Ban, Commander Tie is heavily injured…Commander Duanmu, Commander Gao, Commander Xue have…have been killed by Wei Zhuang…"
"What?" The people riding behind him gasped.
The Mo family giant was shocked. Suddenly, a cold light flashed and a dagger was thrust towards the center of the Mo Family's giant's brows.
"You're not a disciple of the Mo family?" Giant said coldly as he held the dagger between his fingers.
" Humph!" A woman's soft groan was heard. The dagger slowly twisted and dissipated like ice, leaving only a thin blue mist lingering around the giant's fingertips.
"Be careful!" The man in the light blue long robe behind the giant suddenly shouted.
" Bang!" The injured man in front of him disappeared, exploding into a cloud of red mist.
A woman in red appeared in the red fog. She stood not far away and looked at everyone coldly.
"These hands?" The blue-robed man looked at the woman's blood-red hands and frowned."Yin-Yang School, Great Si Ming!"
"Not bad!" A middle-aged man with gray hair riding a horse replied.
The two of them got off their horses and stood behind the Mo Family's giant.
" Humph!" With another sneer, Great Si Ming quickly formed a hand seal in front of her chest. A dark red light flashed on her fingertips, and a red and black Tai Chi pattern appeared between her hands.
" Yin and Yang and hand seals." The middle-aged Taoist priest's expression turned serious as he held the sword on his back horizontally.
The Taiji Diagram grew bigger and bigger, and the two fishes kept spinning as if they were alive. Red light flashed, and a dangerous aura spread out. Great Si Ming withdrew his hand seal and pushed it out with both hands.
The sharp red energy rushed toward everyone. The giant pulled out a black, bladeless sword from under his robe. He waved the sword in his hand with the middle-aged Taoist priest and knocked away the red energy that filled the sky. There was a series of metal clashing sounds.
" You guys should stretch your muscles and bones." Great Si Ming sneered, then he pushed a strand of hair on his forehead with his right hand and disappeared into the group of soldiers in black armor.
Shouts of killing rang out on the ancient road. A dozen or so swordsmen faced off against a few hundred Qin soldiers. There was no suspense. In a very short period of time, all of the Qin soldiers fell.
"Giant!" A figure flashed out from the forest. It was Robber Zhi.
"How is the situation in the City of Traps?" The Mo family giant asked anxiously as he supported the battered and exhausted Thief Zhi.
"It's not optimistic. Quicksand, the Yinyang School, and the Gongshu family have joined forces to surround us. Mr. Fan Zeng of the Chu country suggested that we withdraw from the Mechanical City when the Qin army is besieging us. I came here this time to seek your support and to ask you to make a decision!”Robber Zhi cupped his hands and replied.
" Your internal injuries haven't healed yet, and you forcefully used the Divine Travel Technique. Your injuries have worsened," the giant said after feeling the pulse of the Thief Plantar for a while.
" With Lady Rong here, no matter how serious your injuries are, you will be fine." Thief Zhi smiled and patted his chest to show that he was fine.
"Senior Carefree, Zifang, what do you think?”The Mo family giant turned around and asked the middle-aged Daoist priest and the man in the light blue robe.
"Great Si Ming, Young Si Ming, these two women are both top masters of the Yin-Yang School. Now, Reverse Flow Sand's power could not be underestimated. The Yin-Yang School and the Gongshu Family had also moved out. The world was going to be in chaos again.”Xiaoyao Zi stroked his short beard and sighed.
" Ying Zheng's purpose is very clear, which is to make the Hundred Schools of Philosophy kill each other. Mr. Fan Zeng's suggestion is very correct," Zhang Liang raised his head and looked at the setting sun."The ordinary disciples of the Mo family will scatter and hide. The commanders will move to other strongholds. If you keep them, you'll get both land and people."
"Alright, change of plans!" The giant mounted his horse.
" Wait," Robber Zhi stopped everyone who wanted to continue their journey and said,""There is a young hero that we must save!”
"The one who went to the City of Traps with Mister Ge Nia?”Zhang Liang smiled and asked.
" No, it's the other one, called Fu Chen…" As he spoke, Thief Zhi roughly explained the matter.
" So it's him. I've seen him once with the master. He's indeed a chivalrous young man." The giant suddenly remembered the scene in the Waning Moon Valley and said,""Lead the way!"
Of course, Fu Chen didn't know that Thief Zhi had brought a group of people to save him. He was still talking to Shao Si Ming.
Rather than saying that Shaosi Ming was a taciturn person, she was a good listener. She just listened to Fu Chen quietly, occasionally looking at him with a curious look. Fu Chen would stop and explain why.
Time flew by quickly. The sun was setting in the west, and the golden light shone on Fu Chen's face. Shaosi Ming was a bit absent-minded. The young man with messy hair was so mesmerizing at this moment.
A sound that sounded like fireworks exploding came from the sky. Shaosi Ming looked away, stood up, and looked at the sky.
"What's wrong? Are you leaving?" Fu Chen also stood up. He knew that she had her own matters to attend to, even though he really wanted to keep her by his side.
She didn't turn around, but Fu Chen saw her nodding her head lightly.
" I really want you to stay, so that you don't have to worry about things that don't belong to you, but…" Fu Chen sighed, not knowing how to continue.
She turned around and looked at the slightly sad young man, shaking her head gently.
"Xiao Yi, you have to protect yourself. I know what you do is your freedom, but I keep feeling that it's not what you want... I'll definitely take you to a place where you can be free, trust me!”Fu Chen stared into Shaosi Ming's eyes and said word by word.
Looking at her curious and touched eyes, Fu Chen stretched out his hand, wanting to pat her head. However, he stopped in the end and pointed to the sky."I'll take you to where I came from!"
"Sang Hai!" Shaosi Ming smiled at Fu Chen for the first time, her big eyes curved like two bright crescent moons.
She reached out and tidied his messy hair bit by bit. His short hair had grown a lot since they first met. She tied his hair up herself.
"I will go!" Fu Chen knew that she was talking about the next possible location for the mission.
Shaosi Ming nodded, then turned around and jumped up. Standing on the treetop, she looked at Fu Chen under the tree. After a long time, she disappeared into the forest while Fu Chen was reciting a poem.
"It's hard to find water in the vast sea, and there are no clouds except for Mount Wu.
I'm lazy to look back at the flowers, half because of Taoism and half because of you.”
She could still vaguely hear that voice calling out to her. She did not dare to turn around because she was afraid that she would not be able to bear to leave. After half a month of being together, she would be separated for a few months.
She didn't know why it was so unforgettable, why she missed every little thing in that small courtyard so much.
She felt like she had lost something, lost it somewhere…
A suffocating feeling spread in her heart, and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes…
……
Fu Chen stood still, watching Shaosi Ming's figure disappear. He felt a bit sad. In this era, sometimes parting could be a farewell. For the first time, he earnestly prayed to the heavens for her to be safe and sound.
Thief Zhi's voice sounded in his ears, mixed with the sound of horse hooves. Fu Chen collected his thoughts and slightly adjusted his expression. He put on his outer robe on the mountain ground and turned around to see Thief Zhi and a group of people.
"Are you alright?" Thief Zhi ran over and forcefully patted Fu Chen's chest, appearing very excited.
"Are you looking forward to something happening to me?" Fu Chen glared at Thief Zhi.
" Come, meet all the seniors." Thief Zhi didn't mind and pulled Fu Chen to the front of the people riding horses.
" This is the Mo family's giant," said Thief Zhi as he pointed at the man wearing the bamboo hat.
"So you're the giant. Hello!" Fu Chen carefully sized up this legendary big shot. His face was dignified, and there was a scar on his face that was a little disfigured.
"What are you talking about? Where are your manners?" Thief Zhi slapped the back of Fu Chen's head.
" A unique way of greeting," the elegant man in the light blue robe said with a smile.
The Mo Family giant waved his hand magnanimously and stopped Fu Chen from bowing. He stared at Fu Chen without saying a word.
" This is Senior Xiaoyao Zi of the Daoist Human Sect." Thief Zhi pointed at the middle-aged Daoist priest beside him.
"Hello!" Fu Chen was too lazy to use any etiquette and cupped his hands in greeting.
"Sure!" Xiaoyao Zi's expression was calm as he casually cupped his hands.
"This is Mister Zhang Liang from the scholarly faction!" This time, he was referring to the handsome man who had just spoken.
"Greetings, Mr. Zhang Liang!" Fu Chen bent down and cupped his hands. His thumb was raised and he leaned forward fifteen degrees. It was a standard etiquette.
He respected this strategist very much. He was able to do well under Liu Bang, that idiot. After helping Liu Si get rid of Chu Bawang and establishing the Great Han Dynasty, he did not have the unfortunate fate of being cooked.
One had to know that Niu Ru and Han Xin had died at the hands of Liu Si and his wife. Almost all the famous officials and brave generals of the early Han Dynasty had a bad ending. Only this one had died of illness. Among all the heroes at the end of the Qin Dynasty, this was the true god.
Liu Si had once said," In the midst of strategizing, victory can be won thousands of miles away." He was referring to this God. In the history that he knew, among Qin Mo's strategists, Fu Chen admired this person the most.
"Young hero, do you know me?" Zhang Liang was very curious. This kid wasn't even so polite to the famous Mo family tycoon and Daoist sect leader, but he was so polite to him.
" I don't know him." Floating Dawn shook his head. Looking at the way he was holding the sword, Floating Dawn knew that this Great God's martial arts in this space wouldn't be too low.
"Alright, we need to get back to the City of Traps as soon as possible!”Ju Zi no longer stared at Floating Dawn. This kid felt no different from when he first met him.
"Young hero, do you want to ride on the same horse as me?”Zhang Liang asked Fu Chen with a smile on his face.
" Sure, sure." Floating Dawn climbed onto Zhang Liang's horse without saying anything. The Almighty's invitation was something he could not ask for more.
"Let's go!" The giant whip hit the black horse's trident, and the black horse neighed and dashed out like lightning.
