Chapter Twenty-Four

Jincheng, late at night.

In the small courtyard behind a certain restaurant, Luo Chuan sat alone at the stone table, supporting his chin with one hand and looking up at the moon. After a long time, he sighed softly and turned to look at the beautiful woman with a smile on the other side of the stone table.

.

"If the Governor of Li County is really as the message said tonight, if you return to Licheng at this time, you will be completely trapped in the quagmire, and may even be beyond redemption. Do you... want to follow me?" the beautiful woman asked.

He smiled solemnly and said.

"I remember you said that the mission of this trip is to send me safely back to Licheng?" Luo Chuan smiled and put his hands behind his head.

"That's because when I set out, Lijun and Licheng were not what they are now." The beautiful woman looked back with a serious face, "You and I both know that the news tonight is very likely to be true."

"If it were before today, I might seriously consider your proposal. There is really nothing that makes me miss Lijun, but now that I know he is going to die, I can't help but not go back and see him again," said Luo Chuan with a smile on his face.

It's very complicated, with an indescribable contradiction or relief, "As for the quagmire you are worried about, maybe it is, or maybe it is not. I have been thinking tonight, if the person who can make a former Tsing Yi crown girl fall in love...

If he died like this, wouldn't this green-robed woman's vision be too bad? So, if this time is really the last dance of his life, I have to watch it before leaving. If not...

." He chuckled twice but did not finish.

"Don't forget, the people who want you to die on the way back to Lijun will not stop killing you just because you arrive in Licheng," the beautiful woman sneered, "Today's Lijun has focused on countless Southwestern Han Dynasties

Under the gaze of the top figures in the state, you, a young master from Li County, will have many murderous intentions if you want to return home. Once tonight's news is known to more people, or in other words, sooner or later, this news will be known to more people. At that time,

Lijun will be coveted from all sides, do you still think you can come and leave whenever you want?"

"Lijun is a land surrounded by mountains. How often has it been coveted in history? There are naturally many people who want to cause chaos in Lijun. Those who want to eat Lijun have to weigh their own appetites. Furthermore, if Lijun

It's the Dragon Pond and the Tiger's Den. There aren't many places in this great cauldron that can be considered truly peaceful now. At least this Jincheng and Huaicheng won't be as peaceful as they seem, right?" Luo Chuan said something that was not so ordinary in the most bland tone.

He said, "As for me, of course there are people who want me dead, and it seems that there are people who don't want me dead now. Isn't that interesting? I can't see many things clearly now, but how much is Lijun Prefecture?

It’s clear. If you just leave without understanding it, the risks won’t exist?”

"Follow me. It means nothing whether these risks exist or not. When your strength improves and the situation in the world becomes clear, you can come out again if you want." The beautiful woman stared into Luo Chuan's eyes and said slowly, "This world

After all, strength is respected. Isn’t the Lu Zu you are always talking about the best example? There have been many emperors in the capital in the past three hundred years. Which emperor would not go to Wangchuan first after ascending the throne? "

"It's true that strength is respected, but how many people can be respected to the level of Lu Zu? Throughout the history of the human race, how many people are there?" Luo Chuan laughed at himself and said, "I can't break through the three realms for ten years. Even if I still have confidence, but

Whether you can enter the Upper Three Realms in your lifetime is also an elusive and unpredictable matter. If you don't enter the Upper Three Realms, who can dare to say that you can escape the shackles of the secular world? What's more, in today's world, even if you are lucky enough to enter the Upper Three Realms, it may be difficult to find true love.

It’s a peaceful place...”

"I never thought that her son would doubt his talent," the beautiful woman said in a cold voice, "Or does tonight's news make you intend to seize the worldly status of the prefect of Li County?!"

"I'm not sure," Luo Chuan still held his head in his hands and looked up at the moon, "because I'm not sure yet whether there is that person's shadow behind his death. I need to figure it out first.

"He paused for a moment and then murmured to himself, "There are a lot of troubles in this world. There are some things you have to do, and some things you have to do. In this case, whether it is difficult or dangerous, it is

I have decided to do what I want to do in the future...what are I afraid of..."

The beautiful woman frowned and stared at Luo Chuan's face for a long time before snorting and disappearing from the stone table.

——————————————————————

In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, Luochuan and his convoy had already set off from Jincheng.

Two carriages and five light cavalry, the same as when they came.

Luochuan was still sitting next to the old coachman as usual, putting his feet on the shaft of the coach and taking a nap against the carriage.

After only ten miles out of the city, the old coachman swung the whip in his hand. The horse behind the wheel felt pain on one side of his buttocks. He groaned and pulled the coach up the official road near the roadside, and then stayed close to the official road.

While walking, he gave way to the center of the spacious official road.

The man driving the second carriage behind the old coachman was the ferocious-looking Sword Monk. He turned back and glanced at the smoke and dust on the official road in the distance, and then followed the old coachman with his carriage.

The two Lijun Qingqi who were guarding the rear of the carriage followed the carriage naturally, but Li Mu, one of the three riders in front, rode back to the rear and looked at the smoke and dust on the official road in the distance and asked, "A lot of people are coming?"

A Qingqi from the rear team shook his head and said, "Seven or eight people at most, but it seems they are in a hurry."

Li Mu turned his horse's head and walked alongside the two cavalrymen. "Be more vigilant," he said, motioning the other two cavalrymen to move closer to the center of the road. Shi Shiran occupied half of the road and separated the two carriages.

It was still early in the day, and there were very few pedestrians and vehicles on the road. It was quiet everywhere, and the sound of horse hooves in the distance was gradual. The riders were not wearing armor, and they were all dusty. When they saw Luochuan's team from a distance, they took the initiative to slow down and keep their distance, and then

After following for a short distance, two riders slowly approached.

Li Mu watched coldly, and waited until the two cavalry were close to a position of ten meters before he put his horse's head across the middle of the road and shouted, "Who is coming? How dare you follow Lijun Qingqi?!"

The two people immediately got off their horses and bowed. The older one quickly glanced at the carriage that was slowly stopping not far away and saluted Li Mu, who was still riding on the horse. "My lord, make atonement, my lord."

Atonement, how can the little people dare to follow the adults from Lijun Qingqi, but..." He hesitated and looked at the more luxuriously dressed young people beside him, but he hesitated.

The young man seemed to have remembered something, and looked quickly in the direction of the two carriages, "Sir, don't get me wrong, we are here to find my sister," he gritted his teeth and suddenly raised his voice and pointed at the carriages.

shouted in the direction, "She was lost on the Han River!"

"Bold!" Li Mu glared and shouted angrily, "Take it!"
