Under the scorching sun, Li Wutong looked at the man in front of him with a puzzled expression: "I want you to come see my father?"
"yes."
The man nodded: "Young master, that is indeed what he ordered the villain to do."
"But my father has been unconscious for half a month now."
Li Wutong frowned slightly: "Don't Mr. Wei know about this?"
"Young Master knows."
"Then...what will you do after meeting your father?"
"do nothing."
"..."
do nothing?
This somewhat nonsensical answer made Li Wutong squint his eyes.
The man obviously guessed what she was suspecting, so he reluctantly handed over his hand and explained:
"Princess, I just follow orders and don't know anything else."
"If the princess is worried that the villain will do something outrageous, she can seal all the villain's acupuncture points."
"I just need to see His Majesty with my own eyes."
"..."
After taking a deep look at the man, Li Wutong didn't ask any more questions.
She held the sachet and hesitated for a moment, then turned and walked towards the apse.
"Come with me."
...
A quarter of an hour later.
Accompanied by Zhu Tianhong and Meng Shi, the man successfully entered Li Qi's palace and saw the dying emperor with his own eyes.
His breathing was weak, his face was pale, and there was a strong smell of medicine all around him.
At the moment, Li Qi clearly looked like he was going to die at any moment, and the man didn't make any move. He just looked at the former from a few steps away, and then stepped back.
"..."
The man didn't lie to Li Wutong, and he actually didn't know what Wei Changtian wanted him to do on this trip.
"See Li Qi with your own eyes, and then come back."
These are Wei Changtian's original words, and there is no extra explanation beyond that.
Although the man was a little confused, he just followed the order anyway. Now that the task has been completed, it is time to go back.
"That's it."
Nodding to Li Wutong, the man whispered: "Thank you for your help, Your Highness, Princess. I won't bother you too much, and I will set off back to Shuzhou for business."
He traveled all the way from Shuzhou to Fengyuan just to take a look at Li Qi.
This matter was undoubtedly full of doubts, but Li Wutong and others could never guess what kind of medicine Wei Changtian was selling in his gourd.
"This big brother..."
After pondering for a moment, Li Wutong suddenly asked: "Can you send a message to Mr. Wei now?"
"Well......"
The man was stunned for a moment and then answered truthfully: "Princess, I am not qualified to send messages directly to the young master."
"What about Chu Xianping?"
Li Wutong asked: "Can you send a message to Mr. Chu?"
"..."
As a high-level member of the Freemasonry, men can of course contact Chu Xianping directly.
but......
After a brief hesitation, the man was about to refuse Li Wutong's request and wait until he quietly reported to Chu Xianping before making any plans.
But before he could speak, a slight movement instantly attracted everyone's attention.
This sound came from Li Qi's Yuta.
...
...
An hour later, Youshi.
Shuzhou, Guanghan County.
At this time, there was still more than an hour before the official breakout, and Liang Zhen had already arranged everything. He would only wait for the time to lead his men out from the southwest to kill the generals.
Although such a breakout battle can be expected to be very tragic, as long as Han Zhao does not rebel, the outcome will not change.
So Wei Changtian was even in the mood to have dinner in advance.
"..."
"Gulu~"
At the somewhat rough wooden table, Wei Changtian took a sip of porridge from a porcelain bowl, and then ate a third of a steamed bun in one bite, looking completely nervous.
Xu Suisui next to him was much more polite, and seemed to have something on his mind.
"Hello......"
After hesitating for a moment, she leaned towards Wei Changtian with the bowl in hand and asked in a low voice: "Are we going to break out and escape later?"
"What an escape, this is called a strategic shift."
Wei Changtian answered casually, and then asked: "How did you know?"
"I guessed it."
Xu Suisui looked worried: "I see that all the soldiers in the city are heading south."
"Oh, quite clever."
Wei Changtian curled his lips and didn't hide anything: "We are indeed going to break out from the south. Please follow me later and stop running around."
"good......"
Xu Suisui nodded slightly, but it was obvious from his expression that he still had something to say.
"What's wrong? You're hesitant."
Wei Changtian stuffed some quick stewed meat into his mouth: "If you have anything to say, just tell me."
"you......"
After hesitating for a long time, Xu Suisui seemed to have finally made up his mind. He suddenly put the bowl down and quietly tugged at the corner of Wei Changtian's clothes.
"Come out and we'll talk outside."
"..."
Glancing at Xu Suisui and then at Chu Xianping who pretended not to notice the situation, Wei Changtian also put down the bowls and chopsticks and walked out of the room without saying a word.
"What's going on? Let's talk about it now."
Stopping in a deserted corner, Wei Changtian's expression was calm and his tone was not as casual as before.
Xu Suisui in front of him also had a calm face, but there was always a hint of tension in his eyes that was difficult to hide.
"Wei Changtian, can we escape?"
"..."
Staring at Xu Suisui, Wei Changtian did not answer directly, but slowly asked: "Why do you ask this?"
"You, don't get me wrong."
Perhaps because Wei Changtian was staring at him a little, Xu Suisui's voice couldn't help but become a little softer.
"I just wanted to ask...if you need my help."
"How can you help?"
Wei Changtian's pupils suddenly shrank: "Aren't you unable to practice?"
"I can't practice, but..."
Xu Suisui raised his head and bit his lip gently: "But I should be able to help you."
"Really? How can you help me..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As he spoke, Wei Changtian slowly took half a step back.
After Xu Suisui noticed his movement, he slowly moved back a small step.
"..."
They were still face to face, but the distance between them was now twice as far as before.
Moreover, the two of them each held something in their hands hidden in their long sleeves.
Xu Suisui was still clutching the piece of pure jade pendant.
What Wei Changtian was holding was the "Divine Strike Talisman" that he had originally exchanged to kill Yama Luo, but failed to use it because he "couldn't lock on to the target"...
One is afraid that the other party will kill him.
One is preparing to kill the opponent.
Obviously, although Xu Suisui and Wei Changtian often laugh and joke on weekdays, they even reached an "agreement" on the issue of "friends" a few days ago...
But from beginning to end, the two never really believed each other completely.
The reason is not difficult to understand.
It is undoubtedly impossible for travelers who both own systems to achieve "complete mutual trust" before they understand a series of issues such as what the other party's system is and whether it conflicts with their own interests.
And in this case, in order to protect themselves, no one of them can be the first to reveal their own details.
Therefore, Xu Suisui pretended that he did not know what the "system" was, and Wei Changtian never mentioned the secret of "Tiandao Luck" to the former.
This mutual defense and suspicion seems to be an unbreakable deadlock.
Because they don’t trust each other, no one is willing to tell each other their secrets first.
Because no one "confesses" first, there will always be doubts.
Because of doubt, we will continue to be unable to fully believe it.
unless......
"Are you afraid that I will kill you?"
Wei Changtian suddenly narrowed his eyes and asked, "Is that right?"
"..."
"It seems so..."
Shaking his head, Wei Changtian seemed a little helpless: "I know what you are worried about, but you also lied to me, didn't you?"
"I-I was afraid!"
Xu Suisui suddenly shouted out loud: "I don't know if you will harm me!"
"If I wanted to harm you, you would have died long ago."
Smiling, Wei Changtian put the secret "Divine Strike Talisman" into his sleeve pocket and deliberately folded his empty hands in front of his chest.
And this move really made Xu Suisui's expression relax a lot instantly.
"Okay, we are all fellow villagers, can't we be honest with each other?"
Seeing that this trick worked, Wei Changtian immediately seized the opportunity and asked with a smile:
