Phantom Spear - C192
Previously, she mentioned this: Lee Qingshuang told Du Shaoyang that just now, someone had delivered the challenge letter to him for him from the White-haired Devil Child. Not only did Du Shaoyang not feel the pressure increase after hearing this, he even felt that the burden in his heart had been lifted a little. After that, he recited the words from the second chapter of the《 Moral Sutra》. Lee Qingshuang thought that he would be troubled on a daily basis and was unwilling to memorize these words, but Du Shaoyang had said that he felt it was troublesome because he had to focus on learning the principles and philosophy behind these words. After that, Du Shaoyang carried Lee Qingshuang and ran towards the Clear Void Palace. On the other hand, Gui Xuerou had been waiting for a long time.
When Gui Xuerou heard the conversation at the entrance, she peeked his head out to take a look. It was indeed Jiang Feng and his group. Gui Xuerou secretly laughed, and then went upstairs stealthily. Outside the door, Jiang Feng respectfully said: “Hello, brother, we are rushing on our way. May I ask how many more of these relay stations are ahead of us?” The postman also bowed in return and said, “May I ask where Brother is going?” Jiang Feng said with a serious expression: “We are going to Henan.” The postman thought for a moment and said, “Then there is only one more. Only when we reach the Henan territory will there be a relay station. At other times, I’m afraid we will have to sleep out in the wilderness or in a boardinghouse.” Jiang Feng nodded his head and thanked him: “Thank you brother, I will have to trouble you to help the four of us feed the horses, we will rest for a while.” The messenger man took the reins from his hands and called out to his brothers to help him out. He said, “You should all go inside and eat something. Leave these to us.” Jiang Feng turned around and said, “Brother Tan, Lady Xiao, Yue’er, the capital is still a long way from the Henan Region. We should first rest and adjust our condition, because I’m afraid that after eating this meal, we will most likely have to eat dried food to fill up our stomach.” Huang Yue didn’t seem to care at all as she replied, “It’s fine. With Big Brother Jiang Feng here, everything is the same. It’s good as long as we can play along the way.” Jiang Feng smiled at her, then looked at Xiao Muyu. Xiao Muyu slowly nodded, expressing her agreement.
Jiang Feng ordered a few plates of beef and a pot of tea for them. Jiang Feng poured tea for the other three and said: “This journey will be even more arduous than we thought. Everyone should eat some meat first and be full.” Huang Yue gave a piece of beef to Jiang Feng, then ate two pieces himself. Xiao Muyu then turned to Jiang Feng and said: “Chiang Feng, did you do this on purpose? “I seem to have told you before that I rarely eat meat.” Jiang Feng’s face was a little awkward, he laughed and said: “Lady Xiao, you can leave here alone, I can’t possibly let you have some vegetables at the relay station, furthermore, it’s normal for windy meals to be used for the rest of the journey, you should at least eat some.” Xiao Muyu took out an herb from her bag. Since she was already chewing on it, Tan Yuan was shocked when he saw it, causing him to look at her in shock. Seeing their abnormal behavior, Xiao Muyu asked: “What’s wrong with you guys, I eat this thing often, it can be eaten raw, and will be beneficial for the body. Jiang Feng immediately said: “No, no, no, I will still eat the written beef.” Xiao Muyu took out another pill, and was about to hand it over to him when Tan Yuan also said: “Oh, I don’t like to eat this stuff.” Xiao Muyu did not force it, she only placed it back, and muttered: “They are all people that do not know what’s good for themselves.” When Jiang Feng opened his mouth, Jiang Feng followed: “Brother Tan, don’t be too restrained, you and I have known each other for quite some time, in any case, we are brothers, these two girls are kindhearted and kind people, our journey is still considered far, if we were to keep quiet like this, we might not even reach Henan, we will suffocate to death.” Tan Yuan then suddenly apologized: “Sorry, Master Chiang, I don’t really like to talk, and I don’t really know how to talk, so it’s better that I don’t speak.” Seeing him say that, Jiang Feng was unhappy in his heart, but when he thought about his identity as a Master, he did not want to flare up. Before he left, Yan Kuo had even told him to take care of Tan Yuan more, hoping that he wouldn’t be so closed off and be able to express his feelings frequently. This way, he wouldn’t have to suppress his emotions.
Gui Xuerou hid herself in a corner upstairs and watched Jiang Feng and the rest quietly. After waiting for a while, she took her backpack and cold jade sword and slowly walked down the stairs. Jiang Feng’s seat was right facing the stairs, his eyes were sharp enough to see Gui Xuerou, and he exclaimed: “Lady Gui, why are you here?” Hearing Jiang Feng’s words, the other three all turned their heads and saw Gui Xuerou dressed in green. Gui Xuerou slowly walked over, took a chair, and sat down, then said softly: “It’s better if we speak in a low voice, there’s too many people talking here, Master Chiang, I must have an important mission for you this time, so don’t make it public.” Jiang Feng nodded his head, and said: “Lady Gui is right, but, why are you here?” Gui Xuerou lied: “My senior brother asked me to come here. He said that he wanted me to follow Master Chiang and meet Du Shaoyang together with him.” Jiang Feng had some doubts in his heart, he knew that Yue Xingchen had always had his own way of doing things and was very calm. He would never let his junior sister secretly come here without informing him, so Gui Xuerou’s words must be a lie. Jiang Feng said: “Did Brother Yue ask you to come? Lady Gui, if you don’t tell me the truth, I have the right to make you go back. ” Gui Xuerou smiled charmingly and said: “Oh, Master Chiang even put on airs.” Jiang Feng indicated for her to whisper, and said softly: “Lady Gui is really joking, after all this time, which brother and sister have I been acting so arrogantly to? It’s just that the last time we met outside the pass, she had your father instruct me to protect you well and not let you make the slightest mistake. Along our journey here, there might be some unknown dangers, so I hope that Lady Gui can quickly return to the Virtuous Talent Gathering Hall. Gui Xuerou seemed to not want to return and said: “Big Brother Chiang, you don’t need to use my father and senior brothers and sisters to pressure me. This time, I must follow you to see Du Shaoyang, because I have another agreement with him.” Jiang Feng suddenly laughed: “Lady Gui, are you joking? How did you come to an agreement with the Brother Shaoyang? ” Gui Xuerou pouted and said: “These are matters between him and me, so Big Brother Chiang doesn’t need to ask.” Jiang Feng continued: “Based on my understanding of the Brother Shaoyang, with Lady Lee Qingshuang by his side, there shouldn’t be any unspeakable agreements with the Lady Gui, right?” Gui Xuerou’s expression did not change when he said those words. She only laughed and said: “Big Brother Chiang, I already said that this is a private matter between him and I, and this has nothing to do with you or Frost. I just want to see him and fulfill the agreement between us. If Big Brother Chiang feels that there is anything inconvenient about me following all of you, then I will go on the road by myself to look for him. ” With that, she stood up and made his way to the door.
Jiang Feng was helpless, he called out to her and said: “Lady Gui, please wait, if you have anything to say, please sit.” Gui Xuerou stared at Jiang Feng and asked: “Master Chiang, do we still have anything else to say?” Jiang Feng slightly nodded, and said: “Yes, everything is fine.” Jiang Feng thought: Since she has already made up her mind to go to the Qing Xu Sect of Henan to find the Brother Shaoyang, and I don’t have the time to force her to return, with Gui Xuerou’s personality, even if we have to fight her, she wouldn’t give in. If the matter gets out of hand, my entire journey here would be exposed, which would be unfavorable for my future travel.
Gui Xuerou sat down again and said: “Big Brother Chiang, if you have anything to say, please say it quickly. I need to hurry on my way.” Jiang Feng laughed: “Lady Gui, since you have already made your decision and we are going to the same place, then we will go together. Everyone is familiar with each other anyway.” Gui Xuerou immediately nodded and said: “Alright, alright, Big Brother Chiang, didn’t you say so earlier? Huang Yue ate beef and looked at Gui Xuerou at the same time. In her heart, she hated this kind of woman, and she herself had used some bad methods to get out this time. Xiao Muyu frowned, she had interacted with Gui Xuerou before because of their relationship after she was injured, but she still did not like this friend of hers. Tan Yuan lowered his head and thought about his own matters, he did not care how many of them there were, he just wanted to see White-haired Devil Child as soon as possible …
What about later?
And then we’ll see how it breaks down in the next round.
