Jiang Chu returned to the guest room, took out his luggage, went downstairs to settle his account, and rushed out of the city.
The moment the Lai Haier siblings entered the small forest, Jiang Chu had already caught up. Lai Haier then flipped over and kowtowed again, and said: Benefactor, I, Lai Haier, vow to the heavens that in this life and death, even if I have to be an ox or a horse, I will still repay your kindness.
With a wave of his hand, Lai Haier felt a strong force that unwittingly made him stand up, and he was shocked in his heart. It was indeed the Immortal, this was definitely an Immortal technique.
Jiang Chu laughed and said: Don’t call me benefactor, I’m not used to hearing that. My surname is Jiang, it’s at most your age.
Lai Haier and Lai Yulan did not put on airs, and immediately knelt on the ground and shouted together: Lai Haier, Yulan greets Second Brother.
Jiang Chu sweated, didn’t the ancients say that men had gold under their knees? Why did they kneel so easily?
Jiang Chu was too lazy to care about all these, he could just kneel if he wanted to. Since he had saved their lives, it was normal for them to express their thoughts.
At this time, Jiang Chu started to size up the brother and sister in front of him.
Lai Haier’s face was delicate and pretty, the sky was brimming with vigor, his eyebrows were sharp, and her eyes were sparkling. His nose was high, and his bones emitted a kind of untamed aura.
Lai Yulan was thin, with a oval face, willow brows, apricot eyes, watery lips, and two dimples. She was indeed a beauty, no wonder Tang Lin had a bad impression of her.
Jiang Chu took out a hundred taels of silver and gave it to Lai Haier: Lai Haier, keep these silver taels safe and sound. Take your sister and go straight to the Bianzhou. If you cannot find your aunt at Bianzhou, you can go to Chen Liu County, and find a person called Jiang Mingshan at Crossroads Street. Tell him that I asked you to go, and he will arrange everything properly for you and your sister.
Lai Haier and Lai Yulan were so grateful that they started crying and thanking him profusely once again.
Jiang Chu continued: Lai Haier, you can’t use your name anymore. Just now, you did something to harm people, if the authorities wanted to arrest you, it would be easy for them to find your whereabouts. Also, when you go to the next town, buy clothes for Lan’er.
Lai Haier nodded his head and said: I will listen to Second Brother’s arrangements, only, my father has always called me Lai Haier since I was young, I do not have any other name, please Second Brother, give me a name.
Jiang Chu thought about it, there were not many people with the Lai surname, yes, there is, in the history of Master Feng Shui s called Lai Buyi, this name was not bad, it was very lucky.
Lai Haier, how about you be called Lai Buyi?
Lai Haier lowered his head to look at his clothes. He immediately laughed and said: “This name is good, to challenge the world with just cloth clothes, from now on I am Lai Buyi.”
Jiang Chu never thought that this kid in front of him would become a Feng Shui Sect Master in the future. Lai Buyi and Lai Yulan siblings rushed there overnight, heading northwest. Jiang Chu was not in a hurry to travel. Instead, he jumped onto a big tree and lied down on top of it while sleeping soundly.
No matter how tiring and arduous it was, he wasn’t afraid of the Water Dragon Mystic Realm. What could be scarier than walking in the desert for months? That kind of loneliness and suffering was unimaginable for people who had not personally experienced it before.
The current Jiang Chu was definitely a man with extremely strong perseverance and endurance. After returning to the later generations, he would be much more mature than his peers. Even the generals fighting on the battlefield might not be as tenacious as Jiang Chu.
The next morning, Jiang Chu went to the horse market and bought another horse. Although he could run faster than a horse, he couldn’t rely on his legs to measure the speed of the earth. Therefore, it was better to ride a horse than to travel too fast. People would always mistake him for a god.
Ten days later, Jiang Chu arrived outside Ying Chang City. The area around him was filled with the flames of war, and on the road, one could see the marks of war, and corpses and corpses littered everywhere.
Jiang Chu pinched his fingers and calculated the time. According to the records of history, at this time, Yue Fei had already reached Zhu Xian Town in the south of Beijing.
However, his history wasn’t that great, and he hadn’t done any homework before his transmigration. He didn’t know the exact situation he was in, so he could only take things one step at a time.
After arriving at the Prosperous City, Jiang Chu understood that if the historical records were not wrong, Yue Fei should still be guarding the Prosperous City. In other words, the battle had not reached Zhu Xian Town yet.
Because at that moment, he saw the city gates were closed, and shadows of people were moving about on the city walls. The building was made of rolling logs and stones, and this was clearly the scene of the ancient costume drama where war was about to begin.
Jiang Chu could not help but feel a surge of excitement in his heart. He estimated that it wouldn’t be long before he would meet the King, whom he had worshipped since he was young. Meeting Zhao Kuangyin was purely due to encountering a battle, it suddenly happened. Thus, he did not have any heart to prepare, but seeing Yue Fei, that was something he had arranged himself.
After a moment of excitement, he smiled bitterly. How was he going to get into the city? Could it be that he wanted to escape into the city again? How do I talk to Yue Fei after entering?
Do you mean to tell him that I am someone from a thousand years ago who came to point fingers? Wouldn’t Prince Yue be a spy that would be killed with a single spear thrust?
Jiang Chu thought about it for a long time before finally deciding to enter in a honorable manner. Furthermore, he wanted Yue Fei to come forward to welcome him.
With his mind made up, he did not hesitate anymore. Jiang Chu rode his horse to the city gate and shouted: Soldiers on the city walls, quickly open the gate. I have something to request to see Marshal Yue.
After Jiang Chu shouted, a head stuck out from the crater, he looked down at Jiang Chu and asked loudly: Who are you? Marshal Yue was not someone that could be easily seen by others.
Jiang Chu said: I came from Lin An, and have matters to attend to with the Marshal Yue.
This time, there was no sound from the top of the city wall for a full five minutes. Just as Jiang Chu wanted to shout again, a young military officer appeared on the city wall. He was about twenty years old, tall and sturdy, handsome, with sharp eyebrows and a pair of leopard eyes.
When Jiang Chu saw the weapon in his hand, he immediately knew who this general was. He was holding a meter-long iron rod, and at one end of the metal rod was a round ball. On top of the ball was a sharp awl that was around twenty centimeters long, and this weapon was called the Conical Spear. There was only one person who could use it in the Great Song Dynasty, and that was Yue Fei, the eldest son of Yue Fei.
Yue Yun shouted loudly: Who is beneath the city, why are you meeting my father? Weren’t you a Jinguo spy?
Jiang Chu laughed out loud and said: “This one is Jiang Chu, I have come from Linan to seek to see Marshal Yue because I have something important to tell you. I hope that General Yue can let me know.”
This is the time of war between the two countries, how can I trust you? Yue Yun obviously did not believe what Jiang Chu said, and did not intend to let him in.
Jiang Chu was dumbstruck. He was just a passerby, what kind of keepsake could he take out? However, he couldn’t just continue wasting his time like this. Otherwise, if he were to shoot an arrow at the city, he would be embarrassed.
Thinking about it, Jiang Chu did not speak anymore. Instead, he jumped off his horse and arrived at the city gate. With a flash, he disappeared from sight.
This caused the people on the city gate to be stunned. Where was he? How did he disappear? Could it be that he had met a ghost in broad daylight?
In the next moment, they really did see a ghost. Because, Jiang Chu was already silently standing on top of the city gate tower with a smile on his face, looking at them.
Seeing Jiang Chu suddenly appear, everyone all raised their weapons and was about to rush forward. However, Yue Yun shouted loudly: “All of you, put down your weapons, this person is not an ordinary person, you are not allowed to commit light offenses.”
Jiang Chu laughed and said: I say, General Xiao Yue, you are being too ungrateful. I came here to help you guys out of goodwill, but you suspect that I’m a spy?
Since he was young, Yue Yun had fought together with him from the north and south, so he had seen many strange things. Jiang Chu passed through the wall and silently appeared at the top of the city, it was obvious that he was not an ordinary person, if he was a spy, their heads would have already fallen to the ground.
Yue Yun cupped his fist and said: “Brother, during this great battle, we had no choice but to be cautious, please forgive us, I will bring you to see my father.”
Although Jiang Chu looked very powerful, Yue Yun was not afraid either. His father, Yue Fei, was an expert in Heaven Perfection Stage. No matter how powerful her father was, it was impossible for him to be hurt.
After Yue Yun finished speaking, he took the lead to walk down the city gate tower, and lead Jiang Chu into the city.
