Chapter 486: Parting ways, or the separation of yin and yang
"Ah! I forgot to take the package I left at the inn yesterday!"
As they approached the city gate, Zhen Luo screamed in surprise, covering her mouth with her small hands, with a hint of embarrassment on her face.
"Why don't you let me get this...thing for Miss Luo'er? When you arrive in Xiangyang for the first time, you must not even recognize this neighbor. Fortunately, the inn is not far from the city gate. You guys go ahead and I'll come right away."
.”
Wang Can felt guilty for everyone in his heart and did not say it, but he had already decided that he would do his best to help these people gain a foothold in Xiangyang.
"Ah... This is not good. It's obviously Luo'er's fault, but I still need to trouble Brother Wang..."
Luo'er was a little embarrassed. She glanced at Wang Can and asked Yi Xiaotian for advice.
Yi Xiaotian couldn't tell Wang Can's thoughts, and knew that although scribes like Wang Can were always amiable on the surface, in fact they had very high self-esteem.
So he followed Wang Can's words and said:
"Leave this matter to Brother Wang. It's getting late. It's quite dangerous for a girl like you to stay alone in the city if you can't find a way."
"All right…"
Zhen Luo thought about the getting late night sky and the fact that she was in Xiangyang, a place she was unfamiliar with, not to mention it was okay, but she actually felt a little timid when it came to it.
Wang Can smiled, greeted a few people directly, and left the team.
"Brother Wang, come back as soon as possible. There are many matters to discuss with Brother Wang in the evening."
"Don't worry, I'll come back as soon as I go...remember that the package Miss Luo'er said was a light blue cloth bag?"
"Well...that's right! Thank you, Brother Wang!"
Zhen Luo smiled every day, and Wang Can nodded and left.
The four of them parted ways at the gate of the city. Although they knew that this might only be a short separation, Yi Xiaotian felt a trace of uncertainty in his heart.
He watched Wang Can go away, and finally disappeared at the entrance of the alley. After stopping for a long time, he was stunned by the calls of Zhen Luo and Xu Chu.
"Sir, what happened?"
"It's okay, let's go. General Le must have been waiting for a long time."
——
For Wang Can, the streets and alleys in Xiangyang City are simply familiar. The sun sets and the shops in the city have closed their doors. Only a few vendors still want to sell more goods in the last hours of the day. On the streets,
At first glance, it looks extremely depressed.
Perhaps this is really the reason why Cao Cao took control of Xiangyang. The once vibrant city of Xiangyang now has a sense of desolation.
Fortunately, the gentle evening breeze was blowing at night, which made Wang Can's heartstrings tense, so he was not overwhelmed by this weird atmosphere.
He patted his face to wake himself up:
"Wang Can, from now on you really need to straighten your back, stand among these romantic figures, and leave your own traces..."
Thinking of this, Wang Can's resentment, which had been suppressed for nearly ten years, slowly melted away at this moment.
He went round and round, actually choosing a shortcut. Within two seconds of burning incense, he once again arrived at the inn where the conflict had occurred during the day.
The inn was not closed yet, mainly because the blood stains Ma Yong sprayed on the ground were difficult to remove. Although the shopkeeper took a sum of money from Ma Liang, he was still in shock.
However, the reason why he was so frightened was not because of what happened during the day.
A familiar figure appeared at the door, and the shopkeeper seemed even more nervous, as if he had known that the other person would come here, and he hurriedly greeted him.
"Master Wang! You're here...well...you guys seem to have left some things in their rooms. We've left them intact for you. You can just take them."
"So that's it, the shopkeeper, you have your heart."
Wang Can bowed his hands, and out of compensation for the shopkeeper, he put down hundreds of dollars of compensation on the table.
The shopkeeper was sweating profusely and kept bowing to Wang Can, which made Wang Can a little embarrassed. However, he also knew that Yi Xiaotian and others were waiting for him, so he went upstairs without hesitation.
The shopkeeper watched Wang Can go up the stairs, then collapsed to the ground. His dull eyes stared directly at a dark figure in the corner of the hall - the dark figure's whole body was shrouded in a dark bamboo hat, and his face could not be seen clearly.
Can't tell the difference between men and women.
Until he slowly walked to the shopkeeper's cabinet and said softly:
"You did a good job and saved your life... now, get out."
After hearing these words, how could the shopkeeper dare to stop?
The pissed-off shopkeeper ran out of the inn door crawling on his feet, howling and wailing in the street, alarming a group of merchants.
——
At the same time, Wang Can, who went upstairs, naturally didn't know what happened downstairs after he left.
He just followed the route in his memory and found the room where Zhen Luo had lived before.
He didn't know exactly what he was feeling when he opened the door.
But when he saw a group of dark figures covered in bamboo hats sitting inside the door, he knew that he might have to break the appointment.
"Can I take someone else's package?"
Wang Can smiled miserably, and then the men in black swarmed up.
The door was closed, as if nothing had happened.
——
The military camp outside the city is not far from the original stronghold of the Xiangyang defenders.
Perhaps in order to monitor these surrendered troops, Le Jin, apart from staying in his tent at night these days, was actually training soldiers in the Xiangyang garrison camp on weekdays.
But today is different. Today, the soldiers under Le Jin are always waiting for Le Jin's orders.
With the arrival of several figures, the tense atmosphere was finally relieved.
"Le Wenqian! Come out quickly and see Master Yi!"
Xu Chu shouted towards the camp with his trademark loud voice.
Fortunately, the soldiers in front of the camp recognized Xu Chu's appearance from a distance, and they subconsciously blocked their ears to prevent them from fainting from Xu Chu's extremely impactful roar.
"What's the fuss about? Isn't this coming?"
Yue Jin was also a brave and courageous man. Although Xu Chu spoke openly, in fact when he was in the army, he belonged to Yue Jin. Xu Chu and Dian Wei had such big voices.
People like Yu Jin and Zhang Liao had a hint of Confucian general style. They wanted to build a good relationship with these people, but they had no idea how to do it.
Wearing armor and armed with weapons, Le Jin simply led several battalions of troops out of the stronghold and prepared a grand welcome ceremony for Yi Xiaotian.
Yi Xiaotian was also a little helpless, watching Le Jin coming from the army, especially Le Jin's big grin, which was exactly the same as Xu Chu's simplicity. Le Jin was rather strong, but his voice was still not small.
With a wave of his hand, the soldiers of all camps raised their halberds and spears and struck the ground heavily.
The rumbling sound of weapons sounded like thunder, frightening the Xiangyang soldiers in the camp next door.
