Jianghu Is Not Solitude - C45
However, he was worried that if he tried to resist too much, it would cause Gui Wuji’s Qi to go berserk. Therefore, he had no choice but to calm his mind down, operate his zhen qi secretly, and slowly guide the zhen qi to flow in his body, slowly gathering the poison from his four limbs and eight meridians into his dantian.
After about two hours, Gui Wuji suddenly struck out with his palm. Meng Chunlou only felt a ball of zhen qi inside his dantian, which almost made him explode. He opened his mouth and a mouthful of blood shot out from his throat like an arrow.
With a tired face, he struggled to get up from the ground. He lowered his head, looked at Meng Chunlou, and said in a low voice, “You’ll be fine once you wake up, but unfortunately, the next time we meet is who knows when!”
Gui Wuji had a sad look on his face as he spoke. He staggered out of the jungle. His head felt heavier and heavier, as if it would collapse at any moment!
At this moment, a breeze blew over, bringing a hint of coolness to his mind. He could not help but calm down. Along with the wind, there was also a black figure!
Gui Wuji sucked in a cold breath, and just as he was about to pull out his blade, he heard the person shouting, “How dare you! I told you to kill Meng Chun Lou, but you turned the tables and saved him. Do you know what you’re doing? ”
Just from this voice, Gui Wuji could already guess who it was. He quickly lowered his head and said: “I can’t take advantage of this situation to kill the Sect Leader!”
“Stupid!” If you didn’t take advantage of her, how could you kill Meng Chunlou? Do you think you are Gu Yiyang? ” the man asked coldly.
“I know that I have committed a heinous crime by killing the head of the sect, so I will definitely give you an explanation regarding Pavilion Master Wu!” Gui Wuji said.
“Bastard!” Are you qualified to meet Pavilion Master Wu? ” The man’s cold voice seemed to contain a hint of anger.
“Since he asked me to kill him, I didn’t complete my mission. Naturally, I have to give him an explanation!” Gui Wuji said.
“You have no chance! Because you will soon become a dead man! ” As the man spoke, he got close to Gui Wuji and struck out with his palm. Gui Wuji had not expected that he would make a move on him, so he was sent flying. When he landed on the ground, he coughed out a mouthful of blood and almost fainted!
That person was wearing a mask, so it was unclear what expression he had on his face. At this moment, he seemed to sigh and regretfully said, “It’s not easy for the Ru Yi Hall to nurture an expert, but you’re too disappointing!”
“I can kill Meng Chun, but only in broad daylight!” Gui Wuji said.
“Don’t you still have a shred of regret after what has happened?” the man asked coldly.
Gui Wuji gave a sad smile and said, “Let me kill a man who is about to die without any way to fight back. I, Gui Wuji, have no such hobby!”
“You!” The man stared at Gui Wuji’s face, “All these years, what have you learned? You have changed! ”
“Maybe! But I have finally found an opponent that I can go crazy over, and I have no regrets in my death! ” Gui Wuji laughed.
“Meng Quan must die!” Since you are unwilling to kill him, then let me do it! ” After that person spoke, he turned around and walked into the forest. Behind him, he heard someone was rushing towards him. Without even looking, he struck out with his palm. With a “Ah!”, Gui Wuji was sent flying again!
However, he did not give up and once again pounced towards that person. That person angrily knocked him down, but he still struggled to get up. However, this time, he seemed to be unable to stand up!
The man stared at him coldly. He sighed: “For him, you don’t even care about your life?”
“Kill the Sect Leader, I beg you to let him go for now!” Gui Wuji was breathing heavily, but he managed to say those words.
That man was silent for a moment. Then, he said, “Pavilion Master Wu is in Yangzhou. Tell him yourself!”
After that person spoke, with a tap of his feet, he had already moved dozens of feet away. With another leap, he had already disappeared without a trace!
Gui Wuji looked at the direction he disappeared in and couldn’t help but to smile happily, because he had finally won!
He turned over his body and lay down on the wet grass, staring at the sparse stars in the sky. After several hours, he finally regained some of his strength, and climbed up from the ground. With extreme difficulty, he walked forward, slowly blending into the darkness.
When the morning sunlight pierced through the gaps between the leaves and shone on Meng Chunlou’s face, a drop of dew from the branch just happened to fall onto his brow. He frowned and finally woke up from his dreams.
He opened his eyes and familiarized himself with the surroundings, then recalled the events that happened last night, and then sat up from the ground, stretching his body, feeling that he had recovered about seventy percent of his strength, he jumped up from the ground, took a deep breath of fresh air, and then rushed back to the Celestial Water Town.
Along the way, his mind was in a mess, and he didn’t know what to do next in the Immortal Water Town. He wanted to look for Du Jiangsheng, but he had no direction.
He was here to kill, but he saved me. I’m sure he won’t be able to escape death!
He already owed Gui Wuji his life, how could he bear letting him die for me?
Meng Chun Lou was not someone who liked to owe others. He cared even more about matters of life and death!
Therefore, the first thing he had to do when he arrived at the Celestial Water Town was check out of his room. Then, he rode on his red horse and headed towards Yangzhou.
Since Limitless was a member of the Fulfillment Hall, then the one who could save his life would be Wu Weidao, who was currently in Yangzhou.
He was thinking like this, but he didn’t expect that by doing this, he would coincidentally end up on the same path as Du Jiang!
It turned out that after Fang Zhenyuan was injured by Pingyang Jianke Peng Gao, he planned to stay in the abandoned house to recuperate, but when he heard Meng Chunlou’s voice, he felt guilty and hurriedly escaped with Murong Yan and the Silver Ranked Assassins from the Mysterious Gate. They planned to go to Yangzhou to meet up with Du Fang at the Pingxu Residence, but they were afraid that Meng Chunlou would chase them down too quickly, so he didn’t dare to stop for even a second, and instead arrived in Yangzhou the next afternoon.
Afraid that the silver killer would attract too much attention, Fang Zhenyuan thanked him profusely and parted ways with him. In order to cover up the situation, he hired a carriage to take the kids to the carriage and then ordered the driver to head to the teahouse in the northern part of the city.
Along the way, the coachman couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Brother, are those all your children?”
Fang Zhenyuan smiled awkwardly, and said: “That’s right! Look at how mischievous they are. They can even sleep in such a hot day! ”
“This is my fortune! Look at us, we’ve been busy all year long, and it’s all because of this junior that we need to suffer less. ” The coachman laughed.
“That’s right! How much money will you earn over the course of the year? ” Fang Zhenyuan asked.
“Sigh!” What else was there to say? It’s already good enough for us to be able to eat our fill! ” The coachman shook his head, “These days, the poor die of poverty and the rich die of wealth. Thank God for being able to live!”
When Fang Zhenyuan heard this, he could not help but sigh and ask: “Has anything big happened in Yangzhou city recently?”
“Yes, yes! I heard that the government officials and Zhao Dexian’s men had a fierce fight. Both sides were injured, and more than a hundred people were killed. The entire Yangzhou City was shaken! ” The coachman couldn’t help but laugh loudly as he spoke. “I’ve never heard of official collusion and collusion, but I never expected that they would actually be like fire and water! This time, Yangzhou is one less place to be greedy and one less place to be.
“Bro, aren’t you afraid of causing trouble when you say that?” Fang Zhenyuan asked.
“What are you afraid of? “Right now, there is no government official in Yangzhou City, and the new official sent by the imperial government is still on his way!” The coachman couldn’t help but sigh as he said this, “I hope that this person is a good official. Don’t be like that Chen Prefecture Overseer and abuse the commoners!”
“Anything else?” Fang Zhenyuan asked.
“I’m not sure about anything else! However, after hearing that Zhao Dexing had died, the streets had become much more bustling. In the past, the hawkers who had been chased around by him had also dared to come out and do business. This liveliness has almost caught up with the New Year! ” The driver laughed.
As the coachman stopped the car at the entrance, Fang Zhenyuan jumped down first and looked inside. He saw that it was filled with tea guests, and a storyteller was sitting on top of a tall platform, and he was talking about how the House of Chen was fighting for Zhao Daxing. When the audience heard this, they cheered him on, and the money was poured into the hands of the waiter, which was already piled up with trays!
Fang Zhenyuan smiled bitterly. At this moment, a shop assistant ran over quickly and said with a smile, “Dear guest, please come in!”
Fang Zhenyuan smiled and said, “Do you sell tea leaves worth three to three dollars per catty?”
“There’s only one jin left. How much do you want?” The shop assistant asked with a smile.
“I only want one or two coins!” Fang Zhenyuan replied.
“You want too little, this store is not selling!” The shop assistant laughed.
“If you don’t want to sell, I won’t drink your tea!” Fang Zhenyuan replied.
When the worker heard this, he frowned and said, “The shopkeeper is waiting in the backyard. Please follow me!”
When Fang Zhenyuan heard this, he immediately paid the driver and brought the three children to the backyard. It was very spacious here and there were many rooms, but it was separated from the outside by three walls.
Fang Zhenyuan only had to look at the layout and he was already praising it in his heart: “Such a hidden place is truly wonderful!”
The shop assistant brought Fang Zhenyuan into one of the rooms, first locking the three kids inside, then taking him to another room, then serving him some tea, then he smiled and said, “The shopkeeper is coming right away, please wait for a moment!”
Fang Zhenyuan smiled indifferently and said: “It doesn’t matter! You can do as you please! ”
Fang Zhenyuan took a sip of his tea and started to pay attention to the furnishings in the room. The room was not big, but the decorations were exquisite, and many of the accessories fit nicely, especially the “Bai Zi Diagram” on the wall, its technique was exquisite, its drawing skills were exquisite, and could be considered to be top quality.
He turned his head to look and saw that someone had turned out from the door. That person was around fifty years old, with a long face and beard, a long face and a long beard. He had a big mouth and big eyes, and there was a silver fan in his hand, revealing his large yellow teeth.
When Fang Zhenyuan saw this person, he immediately stood up to greet him and said: “I’ve heard that Shopkeeper Tian has made a fortune in Yangzhou, but I’ve never had the chance to see him. It’s truly an honour to meet him today!”
“How dare you! “I am just a businessman, and what I earn is a small profit. How could I dare to be on par with Chief Escort Fang?” Shopkeeper Tian greeted him courteously as he called Fang Zhenyuan to take a seat.
“This time, I’ve brought three children with me. I would like to ask you, Shopkeeper Tian, to help me settle them!” Fang Zhenyuan went straight to the point.
When Shopkeeper Tian heard this, he immediately withdrew his smile and said, “Du Fang has already told me about this matter. However, I’m afraid that we’ll still have to wait a bit for the arrangements to be made!”
“Oh? “Why?” Fang Zhenyuan asked.
“First of all, we’ve just sent away a batch, and the person who went out hasn’t returned yet. With Pavilion Master Wu in Yangzhou, many things can only be done with his permission, so …” Shopkeeper Tian wanted to say something, but he hesitated. His eyes were filled with a cunning look.
“What about Brother Du? “Why don’t you see him?” Fang Zhenyuan asked.
“Pavilion Master Wu has called him over to discuss something important. He should be back soon!” Manager Tian said.
“So that’s how it is! “Then, Shopkeeper Tian, do you know why Pavilion Master Wu has come to Yangzhou this time?” Fang Zhenyuan asked.
Shopkeeper Tian smiled indifferently and said, “I spoke humbly and lightly. How did I get the chance to find out the purpose of your visit, Hall Master Wu?”
“Oh!” “Shopkeeper Tian, this time, I lost my darts, and am in a dire situation with no money to spare. I can only sell these three children at hand, so I hope that you can make arrangements so that I can return to my old home as soon as possible,” said Fang Zhenyuan with a frown.
“Chief Escort Fang is too polite!” “Since both you and I are working for the Fulfillment Hall, we should listen to Pavilion Master Wu’s arrangements. Now that he is overseeing Yangzhou, how could we dare to go out of our way to hire him?” Manager Tian asked.
“Looks like Shopkeeper Tian views me as an outsider!” If I knew this would happen, I wouldn’t have come here! ” Fang Zhenyuan said angrily.
“Chief Escort Fang, what are you saying? “Don’t tell me that my surname is Tian, and I can still cause trouble for my own people?” As Shopkeeper Tian spoke up to here, he immediately took out a five hundred taels note and passed it to Fang Zhenyuan, “This small amount of money is not worthy of respect. Chief Escort Fang, you can take it to save the man first!”
When Fang Zhenyuan saw this, he immediately revealed a smile and kept the silver notes before saying, “It’s all because of my impatience that I’m rude. Shopkeeper Tian, please forgive me!”
“Chief Escort Fang is too polite, we are all members of the Heaven Gate, how can we not take care of each other?” Manager Tian smiled.
“Shopkeeper Tian is right!” Right now, since I have already accepted your money, I should let you see my goods, please follow me! ” Fang Zhenyuan immediately stood up and led Shopkeeper Tian to the neighboring room.
Shopkeeper Tian glanced at the three kids on the ground. His face couldn’t help but turn frosty as he asked with a frown, “Chief Escort Fang, are you sure you aren’t mistaken?”
Fang Zhenyuan was shocked and asked anxiously: “Where was it wrong?”
Shopkeeper Tian pointed at Murong Yan and said, “This is the Murong Family’s daughter. Right now, the Murong Family is looking for her everywhere. Why are you so interested in her?”
With that, Shopkeeper Tian pointed his finger at Du Jiangsheng and sighed, “Look at this kid, he’s with Meng Chunlou. The gang members have already agreed to help find him, so why did you bring him here? “Isn’t it clear that they want us to have a conflict with the Brotherhood?”
When Fang Zhenyuan heard this, he could not help but feel vexed. He stared at the last child and thought to himself: “This one, you can’t find any reason, can you?”
