Looking at the tired figure, Lu Chen sighed helplessly and murmured to himself. "Oh, how can I not do this if I am too kind... Besides, this evil clan's matter is my matter..."
"
Although everyone wanted to hurry up, they were still a long way from Jian'anchen, and the desert was full of dangers. Once they relaxed their vigilance, they might be catastrophic.
So at night, everyone had no choice but to stop and camp.
Lu Chen sat helplessly in the palm of his hand. His demon soul power clearly felt that everyone was very different at this moment from before.
No matter what, these guys used to be majestic, chatting and laughing, but now they don't even have a smile on their faces.
"Brother Lu Chen, are you asleep?"
Just when Chase Lu was deep in thought, a call suddenly came from outside the tent.
Lu Chen was stunned and immediately opened the tent. It turned out to be Tang Ruo. He was standing outside the door holding two wine jars. When he saw Lu Chen, he smiled sheepishly: "Hey, brother Lu Chen,
Can we talk together?"
Tang Ruo's temperament can be regarded as rough and arrogant. Lu Chen was really uncomfortable with being so polite all of a sudden.
Lu Chen immediately laughed twice, nodded and said: "Of course, what are you talking about?"
"Hey...brother is feeling miserable..."
Tang Ruo and Lu Chen came in and sat down, and the conversation started.
It seemed that he had been depressed for a long time, so after Tang Ruo sat down, he ignored Lu Chen's expression and poured out what he had to say. First, he introduced the Wu family to Tang Sheng, and then he told Lu Chen
He started talking: "...Actually, I came to see you today, Brother Lu, mainly because I have something to ask you. Others may not know what happened during the day, but how could I not know the inside story? Obviously,
That poison powder cannot be Tang Sheng's item, it must be your magic potion, right?"
Lu Chen looked at Tang Ruo's already red cheeks and did not deny anything.
"That's it." Tang Ruo nodded, "The stupid Wu family must have done something wrong this time while the eldest lady was not at home. If you ask me, I will borrow some poison from you. I will quietly tell you later.
Let’s poison the Wu family to death…”
Tang Ruo drank a drink as he spoke, and then said with a smile: "As for Brother Lu Chen, I tell you, if you follow us back to Jian'ancheng this time, it will be very bad. You might just escape death."
"Don't worry..." Tang Ruo said, and slapped Lu Chen on the shoulder, "If you drink this jar of wine, we are brothers. I will give you half of my private money. You should be there early."
Before returning to Jian'an City, leave quietly, lest those bastards from the Wu family see that you are in the same team as us, and then it will be difficult for you to escape."
Lu Chen looked at Tang Ruo's eyes, which were already a little hazy from drinking, and couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.
Although these people from the Tang family met him by chance, no matter what, they were the ones who saved him. How could he just leave at this critical moment?
Lu Chen raised his head and drank a sip of wine, then smiled at Tang Ruo and said: "Brother Tang, to be honest, since I was rescued by the Tang family, I owe my life to the Tang family! Brother, I have nothing else to say.
No, it’s okay to go back with you and join forces. This is the poison you want, I’ll give it to you, but don’t expect me to leave.”
Lu Chen directly took out a bottle of magic potion and threw it to Tang Ruo, with a touch of Lu Chen's demon soul power attached to it.
Tang Ruo held the medicine bottle, grateful, and looked at Lu Chen in shock. To be honest, although they saved Lu Chen, as Lu Chen's identity as a pharmacist, he was always a guest of the family wherever he went. What's more, this Lu Chen
At present, his injuries have recovered a lot. At this critical moment of life and death, if he wants to leave, no one can say anything wrong. He is not from the Tang family in the first place?
Unexpectedly, Lu Chen was actually willing to stay and help the Tang family for a life-saving favor. This realization shocked Tang Ruo's heart.
Not to mention Demon God Continent, even within the Middle Realm, who is not putting profit first at present? Who would be willing to risk his life for so-called favor?
What Lu Chen did was really beyond Tang Ruo's expectations, and he couldn't help but admire him.
"Brother Lu Chen, are you telling the truth? Do you know that the alchemists are rare in the middle realm now? How noble! If Brother Lu Chen is willing to help, the alchemist, this
Not to mention your status in Jian'an City, our Tang family can hold our heads up in the entire Northern Wasteland! Are you sure you want to stay with our Tang family to help, and not go to the Central Territory to develop?"
"Haha, if I don't repay my life-saving grace, how can I have the face to go to the Middle Realm? Let's not talk about this. Let's have a good drink tonight and talk about other things tomorrow. At the moment, I only have one request, and that is my identity as an alchemist.
Now you can't tell anyone, it's still the same as before, no one else can know except you and Tang Sheng. Is that okay?"
Lu Chen looked at Tang Ruo and said.
"Of course! It's absolutely no problem!" When Tang Ruo saw Lu Chen say this, he immediately patted his chest with great emotion and laughed loudly, "Go and ask, no matter what the outcome will be in the future, now that I can meet someone like you.
Bro, it’s worth it! Let’s drink!”
…
One night passed, and everyone continued on their way home. Although everyone hurried on without saying a word this time, after all, there was still a long way to Ancheng, so even if everyone rushed on their way, it would still take at least two days.
It takes three days to arrive.
The atmosphere along the way was much more depressing than before.
However, after walking for a long time this time, everyone met some passers-by.
The oncoming passers-by were not a large convoy, but three guys riding Shatuo. They looked like they were buying and selling wine, and they were not afraid of being robbed. They were just carrying two huge wine barrels.
The car and the five sand camels set off on the road.
People in the Tang family are used to seeing such small businessmen. When they saw that the auras of these guys were only at the first level of Tribulation Realm, and were far from the match of the Tang family's escorts, they immediately ignored them.
The three wine dealers also followed the rules of Jian'an City and saw the Tang family's team early, so they waved a golden flag. This is the official order of the merchants of Jian'an City, and it is for everyone on the right path.
, each other’s caravans began to greet each other from a long distance away. In order to prevent everyone from misunderstanding each other as gangsters, unnecessary misunderstandings would occur, and the losses would be great.
Seeing this, everyone in the Tang family also took out yellow flags in response to the other party.
Seeing this, the three wine sellers casually approached the Tang family's team.
When the two teams were about to cross each other, Tang Yiyi was sitting in the carriage, leaning against the window in a daze.
She held her cheeks in her delicate hands and stared out the window with her beautiful eyes, looking indifferent.
At this moment, Lu Chen released his demonic soul power and paid attention to everything around him. Seeing Tang Yiyi's appearance, he had no choice but to shake his head. This girl always had a straight face. He didn't expect that she would be like this.
She has such a fragile side. Thinking about it, it is not easy for her to support the entire Tang family in Ancheng by herself.
"Hey, I wonder if the weather has changed when we return to Jian'an City after finishing our work this time?"
While Lu Chen was meditating, the conversations of several wine sellers passing by reached everyone's ears.
All the demons in the Tang family's team couldn't help but give a pause, and then cast their gazes over.
"Tch, isn't this Wu family so shameless? They actually took advantage of others' danger." A man curled his lips disdainfully at his companion.
"Uh... you know everything?" The person who spoke before was suddenly startled and said awkwardly.
"Am I a fool for such a big thing? Otherwise, why do you think I urged you to hit the road so quickly to sell alcohol? I don't want to stay in Jian'an City and watch the civil strife. I won't go back until the matter is over.
That’s the most reliable thing to do, so that the gods won’t fight and harm innocent people.”
"Uh... you are right. But how did you know the news in advance? I thought I was the only one who knew the news."
"Well, no matter what, the Tang family behaves with benevolence and justice. When I was drinking in the shop, I heard that the Wu family was going to attack the Tang family recently. I heard that they also wanted to marry the eldest lady of the Tang family. You
"Don't I know about the grievances between the Tang family and the Wu family over the years? Since we know that there are conflicts between the two families, what will be the consequences if the Tang family is unwilling to marry and the Wu family insists on marrying?" The man shook his head fiercely. In fact,
The young lady from the Tang family is really a rare beauty. If it weren't for his limited ability, he would really like a hero to save her, but he can only dream about it. He doesn't have such overwhelming power to deal with the evil clan behind the Wu family.
, and does not have strong strength to defeat the heroes. As a common citizen, it is not easy to protect oneself.
As everyone listened to the conversation of these three people, their expressions immediately changed.
"Speaking of which, before we set off, the Tang family seemed to have encountered some trouble. I guess it was the Wu family who started it, right?" The fat man among the three who had been silent for a while said.
"Hey, I don't know what will happen to this matter. I heard that the eldest lady of the Tang family hasn't come back yet, right?"
"I don't know about that. The Tang family's affairs are kept very secret. I don't know the exact information..." The man shook his head and was about to continue talking, but suddenly he was stunned and slowly raised his head.
When I came, I found that the caravan that was about to pass by had actually stopped. All eyes were fixed on the three of them, like a spotlight, extremely dazzling.
This made him swallow his saliva and said cautiously: "This... I wonder what's wrong with you all?"
"You just said, what happened to the Tang family?" A female voice came from a carriage, soft and gentle, with supreme pressure.
"Uh... I don't know very well. I just heard that there seemed to be a fierce battle in the Tang family two days ago, and then the Tang family refused to allow any outsiders to enter. We outsiders don't know the specific situation.
." The man said anxiously.
"Yes, we heard about these things and found that Jian'an City was unsafe, so we left Jian'an City in advance." Fatty continued, "So we don't know what happened to the Tang family later."
After listening to the words of these people, Tang Yiyi's face gradually darkened, and her heart became even more uneasy.
"Okay, thank you very much." Tang Ruo knew that he couldn't ask anything else, so he didn't prepare to ask. He thanked him immediately, and then led everyone on the road together.
"Why do these people feel that the marks on their carriages look familiar..." Looking at the convoy disappearing on the road, one person suddenly whispered.
"Mark?" The fat man was startled after hearing this. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, and a hint of horror gradually appeared on his face, and he said in a low voice: "Oh my god, couldn't the person we met just now be someone from the Tang family?"
Right? Could it be that this is the eldest lady of the Tang family, about whom rumors have come out? Are we just going to meet them when we go back?"
