"Divine monk, why is this place so deserted?”
A golden light appeared.
Chen Changsheng brought Zhiqiu Yiye out of Black Mountain Jie and arrived at a city. The streets were cold and cheerless, with not a single person.
"Strange, really strange! This place was close to the Capital of Yan, so it should be bustling with activity. How could it be like this?”
Autumn Leaf was very puzzled.
"There must be a demon! There might be a demon causing trouble here!" Chen Changsheng coldly said.
"Divine monk, it doesn't look like someone starved to death!”Nie Xiaoqian suddenly said.
Chen Changsheng walked over. This person was so hungry that his face was sallow and his muscles emaciated. He was as thin as a stick and had collapsed on the side of the road. Chen Changsheng crouched down to examine him.
"He just died not long ago. He can't be saved!" Chen Changsheng shook his head.
"It shouldn't be! How could someone starve to death at the feet of the Son of Heaven?!”Autumn Leaf was very puzzled.
"We'll find someone and ask.”Chen Changsheng said.
"Divine monk, I can't see a single person, how can I ask? The shops here were all closed. Otherwise, he could find one and ask.”Autumn Leaf said.
"Hmm? There's a restaurant opening there. Let's go and take a look.”Chen Changsheng pointed ahead.
"The divine monk is truly wise!" Autumn Leaf chuckled.
The two of them entered the restaurant.
There was no one in the shop, only an elderly waiter who was lying listlessly on the table as if he was asleep.
"Old man, is there still business in the shop?”Chen Changsheng asked.
Hearing the sound, the waiter realized that someone had come. He slowly opened his eyes and could not help but be stunned.
A monk's robe made of coarse hemp emitted a golden glow under the sun. Even the mundane could not conceal Chen Changsheng's otherworldly aura.
The waiter was clearly stunned for a while before he reacted. He had never seen such an otherworldly person.
"So you're a divine monk?" The waiter quickly wiped the bench with a rag.
"Please take a seat!"
Chen Changsheng and Autumn Leaf sat down.
The waiter poured them a cup of tea. Although it was called tea, it was actually clear water. There was not a single tea leaf.
The waiter was a little embarrassed." I'm sorry, both of you. We only have this clean water in our shop!"”
"Originally, we didn't intend to do business when we opened the door. We just wanted to get some fresh air. I didn't expect the two of you to come!”
"It's fine. It's not bad to have water to drink. Water is the mother of all things.!”Chen Changsheng smiled.
"Divine Monk, you're too polite. What do you two want to eat?”the waiter said.
"Old man, there's no need to go through so much trouble. Eat whatever you have. Actually, This Penniless Monk came to inquire about something.”Chen Changsheng went straight to the point.
"Divine monk, feel free to ask. I will definitely tell you everything I know!”the waiter replied.
"Alright then, This Penniless Monk will ask!"
"The two of us passed by this place and heard that this place is bustling and prosperous. It's also close to Yan City. Why is it so desolate and sparsely populated?”
Chen Changsheng drank a mouthful of water and asked.
"Divine Monk, you don't know!"
The waiter sighed, his face filled with worry. He looked outside and quickly closed the door and bolted it.
Seeing his careful appearance, Chen Changsheng's eyes faintly flickered.
"Our place used to be prosperous and had many loyal officials and good generals. However, ever since the state preceptor intervened in the government, the emperor became fatuous and cruel.”
At this point, the waiter sighed.
"Some time ago, Lord Fu, the prefect of our city, Fu Tianchou, met with the emperor during the morning court session to impeach the treacherous officials and the state preceptor. In the end, it was dragged out on the spot. He said that he would behead the public at the market at three in the afternoon today!”
Three quarters in the afternoon?
Wasn't it going to be soon?
Chen Changsheng raised his head to look at the sky.
At this moment, a commotion came from outside the restaurant.
Ta Ta Ta Ta!
Horses galloped over the bluestone bricks, raising dust. A group with an imposing aura rode over on horses, followed by a prison carriage.
There was an old man in his forties in the prison carriage. The old man's gaze was dignified. Even though he was trapped in the cage, his face was still filled with righteousness.
Behind him was a middle-aged man in his thirties. He also had a dignified expression on his face. There were five sabers on his back, one on his waist, and one in his hand. He was simply a saint among sabers.
"Divine monk, that's Lord Fu!"
The waiter pointed at the old man and said," Lord Fu has been loyal all his life, but he ended up like this. How pitiful!”
"I didn't expect that even Lord Zuo would come. It seems that the Emperor is afraid of people robbing the execution ground…Lord Fu will definitely die!”Zuo Qianhu was the number one expert in Yan Country.
"Divine monk, this Zuo Qianhu is so strong. I don't think I'm his match!”Autumn Leaf said with a solemn expression.
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng looked over.
The middle-aged man's eyes were bright, and blood was rising from his head like smoke.
Such a powerful mortal expert.
Chen Changsheng only remembered one person.
Martial Saint Zuo Qianhu?
"Lord Fu has two daughters who are highly skilled in martial arts. I hope they don't come to rob the prison…"
Just as the waiter finished speaking, two delicate voices suddenly sounded.
"Release my father!"
On the eaves on both sides, two beautiful figures held long swords in their hands. They were extremely beautiful, and they pounced towards the cage from the left and right.
"Not good! Someone is kidnapping prisoners!"
"Quick, quick! Stop them!"
The horses were in a mess. These soldiers were not her match at all.
"How dare you! Fu Qingfeng, Fu Yuechi!"
"How dare you kidnap a prisoner? This is a crime of treason!”Thousand Housekeeper Zuo sat on his horse and shouted angrily when he saw Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi robbing the prisoners.
The saber in his hand slashed in the air.
A cold light slashed.
Clang! Clang!
Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi were no match for him at all.
Bang!
The two of them fell to the ground.
"Father!"
Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi looked at the old man in the prison carriage.
"Hurry up and leave! Don't mind me!"
The old man shouted.
"Father, we want to save you!"
Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi rushed toward the prison again.
"Stubborn!"
Zuo Qianhu gave a furious grunt and slapped the back of his horse. He rose into the air and slashed his long saber in the air, sending a wisp of saber Qi flying out.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi were sent flying and spat out blood.
"Die!"
Zuo Qianhu's saber was like a waterfall, about to hit the two women.
"Amitabha!"
At this moment.
A Buddhist proclamation suddenly sounded.
Zuo Qianhu's pupils constricted. His blade fell, but his face was filled with shock.
"How is that possible?"
In front of Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi, golden light shone. Chen Changsheng pressed his palms together, and the saber of Zuo Qianhu was frozen in the air, unable to move!
Fu Qingfeng, Fu Yuechi, and all the soldiers were shocked and dumbfounded!
