Chapter 717: Seeing things like a tiger with a cold eye(1/2)

At ten o'clock in the morning, the two of them picked up wine glasses again in the inn.

The difference was that Li Xiuyuan didn't give him anything to drink in Deyue Tower before.

He had just witnessed the attack and killing in Taiping Town. This was also the first time that Long Hongchen had seen an assassination among monks. Li Xiuyuan felt that he wanted to suppress his shock.

Long Hongchen held the cup and took a sip, patted his chest and said with a smile: "If my brother hadn't covered my mouth just now, I would have screamed out in fright."

Li Xiuyuan sighed and said quietly: "I didn't expect that even if I came to Taiping Town, there would be such an assassination incident."

Holding the wine glass, he took a sip, his eyes filled with confusion.

"In this case, we have to be more careful in the next few days. You must not leave my side, lest you can't find me if something goes wrong."

After witnessing the assassination in the alley, Li Xiuyuan felt a chill in his heart. This is Taiping Town under the rule of the Marshal.

So what if you are Zhuge Xiongfeng's subordinate, why would someone dare to assassinate you?

Long Hongchen also knew the stakes involved, so he nodded and said, "Brother, don't worry, Long Hongchen promises not to run around."

Putting the wine glass on the table, Li Xiuyuan sighed: "I originally thought that the Crescent Valley was dangerous and that returning to Longmen Pass would make me feel at ease. But I didn't expect that this place would be like the world outside. Wherever there are people, there will be rivers and lakes."

"What is Jianghu? Brother." Long Hongchen frowned, as if recalling the plot of the murder in the alley: "Those guys who were blocked in the alley were so miserable."

"What are rivers and lakes? Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Wherever there are people, there are struggles for interests. Where there are fights, there are assassinations like you see. Wherever there are assassinations and calculations, there are rivers and lakes..."

Li Xiuyuan spent a while explaining to him what Jianghu was, and Long Hongchen seemed to understand.

After a while, he said: "Fortunately, it's over. It scared me just now. Brother, let's get out of here."

Facing the bloody reality, Long Hongchen felt a sense of disgust.

After being separated from Xiao Longer and the four girls for several months, he missed the carefree days in the temple.

In Li Xiuyuan's view, all this was helpless.

Because he knew that as long as he left the temple, he would meet monks. He was afraid that he would never go back to the carefree days in the temple.

After coming all the way, this guy had to step into the world of mortals before he could even enjoy half a year of leisure time.

"We will leave early tomorrow morning." Li Xiuyuan looked at him and said with a smile, "The name I gave you has this meaning. Even if you are a dragon above the nine heavens, there will be a moment when you fall into the world of mortals!"

Seeing that Long Hongchen did not answer his words, Li Xiuyuan continued: "The world of mortals is the world. You will encounter assassinations like today's in the future."

"Long Hongchen is not afraid!" Long Hongchen drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, coughed lightly, stuck out his tongue and said, "Brother and sister are here!"

Li Xiuyuan disagreed, thinking that I will leave you one day, and you must always try to face the ups and downs of the world alone.

However, in his opinion, this should be a long time later.

After all, his master also likes this guy very much, and he might be so happy that he drags Long Hongchen around the world that day.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Long Hongchen subconsciously.

Long Hongchen was smiling and listening to Li Xiuyuan's words. The wine was too spicy, so he had to drink a large cup of herbal tea.

Then he coughed lightly and said with a smile: "When Long Hongchen becomes more powerful in the future, he will protect his sister and brother."

Li Xiuyuan gently squeezed the wine glass and looked at the young man in front of him, as if he had seen a picture of him one day in the future, with a satisfied smile on his face.

Hehe laughed and said: "I originally thought I was lucky, but when I think about it carefully, no one in this world has better luck than you."

In his opinion, if he had not met this guy accidentally, he would have either become the cannon dust of the demon, or he would have been buried in the cave by the explosion that night.

Not to mention that the old Taoist priest personally took action and changed his bloodline, transforming him from a demon into a dragon overnight.

Long Hongchen looked at him and nodded in understanding, then staggered towards his room.

After drinking a glass of apricot wine, he wanted to sleep again.

Li Xiuyuan looked at his back and ignored him. From now on, he would train Long Hongchen's ability to face danger alone.

After all, fighting against humans is much more dangerous than fighting against monsters. The world is like a chess game and people's hearts are like tigers.

Among the monks who came to Shura battlefield, who didn’t emerge from the pile of dead people?

Looking at the half glass of strong wine on the table, he murmured to himself: "I'm back here, please don't mess with me."

.......

Taiping Town was not peaceful. After breakfast, Li Xiuyuan and Long Hongchen left the city gate early and headed towards Zhuxian Town.

On a day without wind and snow, the two of them can arrive by the time the sun sets in just one day.

In his plan, Zhuxian Zhenjiao was his last place to stay on the Shura battlefield.

He has too many acquaintances, and he will never go to Longmen Pass again.

Just waiting to redeem his military merits, and when the battlefield was closed, he took Long Hongchen and Xiao Long'er to the wild Ding'an City, and the Four Seasons Tower in Wangtian City, which was where he wanted to go.

Before leaving, he had to try to repay the debt of gratitude.

Long Hongchen, who was riding on horseback, was very happy. He left Taiping Town and got closer to his four sisters.

In Baiyun City, not far from Taiping Town, on the edge of a large lake, Qin Qianshan was wearing a pure white gown and staring at the water birds on the lake in trance.

After a moment, he sighed and rubbed his forehead. He had been sitting here for two hours.

It was not until almost noon that he decided to get up and leave after sitting there for a long time, when the sound of rapid horse hooves was heard not far away.

I saw a monk in black riding a horse and arrived at the lake in an instant.

The person jumped off the wildebeest, hurried forward and handed over a black space ring.

Qin Qianshan was stunned. He took the space ring and looked at it carefully. Then in the strange eyes of the man in black, he said tiredly: "Are there any survivors?"

The visitor was startled, then lowered his head and responded: "Four targets, if there is no one left alive, they will be burned to the ground."

Qin Zhishan seemed to have a headache when he heard this. He raised his head and sighed, waving the visitor to leave.

The lakeside became quiet again. Qin Qianshan looked at the space ring in his hand and became lost in thought again.

He knew that if someone from Longmen Pass learned the news, it would cause a big stir. But he didn't care. He had already risked his life for his own goal.

Thinking about the rumors I heard in the inn, I already had a poisonous plan in my mind. At worst, I might let someone out and spill the dirty water on someone.

After all, this is an unproven matter. Who knows the truth?

Seeing that it will not be long before the beginning of autumn, as soon as the time comes, the entire Shura battlefield will be completely closed. This matter has become an unsolved case. Who can find out the truth?

Looking up at the frightened waterbirds flapping their wings and flying away on the lake, there is no smell of blood on the lake surface pointed by the breeze?

Thinking about all that happened in the Shura Realm that year, he whispered: "You have your opportunities, and I also have my luck."

...

On the way, Hua Tianyu took his sister and others, and the one in front was Jun Buyu, who was dressed in a dusty style.

"Brother, I'm too tired. Let's rest for a while before rushing on!" Hua Chenyu, who was riding on the horse, complained.

"Then let's take a rest and have lunch before continuing on our way!" Jun Buyu, who was walking in front, spoke, and Hua Tianyu naturally had no reason to object.

So a group of people stopped and found a place with water to stay. Those who fed the horses fed the horses, and the cooks found some dry stoves to light a fire.

Hua Tianyu took out the water bottle and took a sip, stretched his sore waist, looked at Jun Buyu and said, "If you want to meet my brother, I'm afraid you won't be like that starving ghost."

Upon hearing this, Jun Buyu couldn't help laughing and scolding: "You can't say such nonsense. After staying here for eight years, I have drunk all the wine I brought. I guess he is the only one who still has...

"

Hua Chenyu, who had washed his face with water, came over and smiled, shook his head and said, "I just haven't been back to Longmen Pass in a few years. I don't know if that guy is back?"

Huayu Yushou, who was sitting next to making a fire and boiling water, frowned and said, "He has been missing for eight full years, so he should come out to meet people, right? He is not a woman, so why is he so mysterious?"

Hua Tianyu couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "You can save this for when you see me in person."

Jun Buyu shook his head and sat down. He ignored Hua Tianyu's teasing, but took out his identity token and stood up in a daze.

“I don’t know how many places I can exchange for a place in the sky!”

Thinking of his parents, brother and others in the Demon Realm who could not come, Jun Buyu suddenly felt a little heavy in his heart.

Only then did he remember that once upon a time, his relatives actually put their future hopes into his own hands.

And after all these years, even though I have been fighting the devil with all my life, I don't seem to have accumulated much military exploits.

I originally thought that after my realm was broken through, I would work hard to earn more military merits in the last two years, but I never expected that the demon army would withdraw from the Shura battlefield without a word of reluctance.

This is tantamount to catching all the monks off guard.

The atmosphere in the arena became cold. Hua Chenyu glanced at his brother and thought, isn't this the case for his family? No one expected that the demon would stop fighting if he said he didn't want to.

The battlefield was obviously tightly closed and no one could enter or exit, but the demon army quietly left.

Thinking of the things that happened on the battlefield, everyone who is familiar with Li Xiuyuan suspects that this is the result of him. It's just that they haven't met the protagonist of this incident yet.

Everyone is waiting for Li Xiuyuan's return, and everyone even places their own hopes on this guy.

Hua Chenyu sighed and said gently: "Maybe we can see that guy when we return to Longmen Pass."

Hua Tianyu smiled, with a bit of bitterness in his smile.

As the prince of the Demon Realm, he has to pin his hopes on his brother. If he said this, everyone would probably accuse him of being incompetent.

When the water boiled and the aroma of tea arose, Hua Chenyu poured hot tea for the two of them and took a cup himself.
To be continued...
