Chapter 463 Return to Kyoto! (Second update)
At noon, the former Shuangxi Village was completely unrecognizable, and the mountains were riddled with holes. The three-forked river had disappeared and was filled with large and small rocks. Wu Chen He did not destroy all the hills like he destroyed the stone village, which would have exhausted him to death. He just knocked off some rocks to see if they were hollow inside.
At this time, Wu Chen was pointing at the former Shuangxi Village and Yu Shian, telling him how to spread the soil and what to say before spreading it...
Xu Dagu stood on the right side and whispered. Xing Yun looked at everything in front of him in a daze. The place they were standing on was originally a narrow mountain road. Now it has been widened a lot by Wu Chen. It is just a little bumpy, but it is still helpful for earth transportation.
The eldest brother and the others were finally reunited, and the second child and the fourth child talked enthusiastically about what happened last night.
It was as if nothing happened last night, except that the big head was missing.
No one dared to mention this difference.
It would be most appropriate to hand over the next earthworks to Yu Shian. If five hundred people are not enough, Yu Shian can mobilize more troops to nearby military camps.
Yu Shian's mood is very complicated. He always wants to find an opportunity to repay his kindness, but Wu Chen has always put him in the safest position, leaving him only the task of guarding Datou. He has not completed it yet, Wu Chen Chen said Datou went to a good place, but Yu Shian still felt sorry for Wu Chen, but didn't know what to say.
Wu Chen finished his instructions, patted Yu Shian and said, "Goodbye in Kyoto!" He turned around and left.
Xu Da, Xing Yun, and the boss did not dare to delay and quickly followed.
Wu Chen ran forward quickly, and the others struggled to follow. Only Xing Yun could barely follow, and he could only look at Wu Chen's back from a distance.
......
The group finally arrived outside Yongshan County again. Wu Chen arrived early and found someone to prepare a few horses. When he saw a few people following him, Wu Chen galloped away. , the remaining people hurriedly mounted their horses.
Xing Yun chased and shouted: “You don’t know the road, you’ll get lost again!”
Wu Chen slowed down. He really didn't remember the way. When he came, he relied on Xing Yun to lead him. On the way back, he only remembered the short section outside Yongshan County and the short section outside Kyoto.
“I know you are anxious,” Xing Yun caught up with Wu Chen and said, “I am anxious too, but what if I am anxious? This place is thousands of miles away from Kyoto, and you cannot reach it in one breath. Even if You worked hard to catch up Go back, how can you fight against the Ghost King when you are so exhausted?"
At this time, Xu Da and his party also caught up, Wu Chen slowed down, Xing Yun rode at the front, and the group rushed straight ahead. Kyoto.
......
The group did not rest much for three consecutive days. On this day, they went to the inn to change horses and make some repairs.
A group of people gathered together, and Wu Chen said: "I know the way after passing Teng County. I will go back then. You guys should take care of yourself before going to Beijing. Don't look for me when you get back. Don't ask anything about what to do." What to do."
Xing Yun said: "I'm with you! I'm not worried about you dealing with the Ghost King alone." "You will only be a burden to me," Wu Chen said with an expressionless face.
Xu Da glanced at Wu Chen. Wu Chen would not have said this before. Xu Da thought it was because Da Tou left suddenly and never recovered, so he interrupted. Said:
"Maybe it's not what you think. I don't know what the Ghost King is. Maybe he knows how powerful you are and saw that Shuangxi Village was destroyed, so he hid long ago."
Wu Chen looked at Xu Da and asked: "Why do you think Aunt Ping went to Qianfo Temple?"
Xu Da looked at the others, and then said seriously:
"You said Ping before There is nothing wrong with this girl, but, no matter what, how could she, a young lady, have anything to do with the Ghost King in the first place? The rescue was just a coincidence. Even we don’t know where you will go in the middle of the night. How could she predict it in advance?”
Wu Chen didn’t answer immediately. He didn’t know how to tell these people who he was. It's not unusual for the Ghost King or his people to appear where he woke up. What's strange is why he wasn't killed as soon as possible?
“Pinggu was born and grew up in Anping County. Her parents valued boys over daughters. Perhaps for Pinggu, her parents should not sell her as a concubine or sell her to a brothel. She was satisfied, but when I asked her whether she should go back with me or stay in Qianfo Temple, she said she would rather die with understanding than live in confusion... But for ordinary people, how can they live without being confused? "< br>
Gu You frowned and asked: "Do you think Aunt Ping stayed in Qianfo Temple on purpose? Why did she... want to be with the Queen Mother?"
Xing Yun said hurriedly: "I'm not afraid of beheading anymore. If this is the case, then the Queen Mother is the Ghost King or knows where the Ghost King is. I'm afraid that Ping Gu is just following orders..."
"If you follow orders, you won't stay in Qianfo Temple." Wu Chen interrupted Xing Yun and said, "It's enough for the Queen Mother to find you personally. It means she is not the Ghost King. It is not your turn to threaten the Ghost King himself, Aunt Ping. If she is just following orders, the best position is to follow me, and this is not difficult to do. Aunt Ping only needs to let Datou make the request, and I will definitely agree. But she chose to stay at Qianfo Temple, even if she He is not the King of Ghosts, but he is also the most capable general of the King of Ghosts..."
Xu Dajian said anxiously: "Well, then she should have attacked you early. How could..."
"I didn't think about this either. I have to wait until I see her. Only then will she know, if she is willing to tell me." Wu Chen said with a smile.
"Wait for me to figure it out." Xu Da said seriously: "The Pinggu we met in Luanfengang later took care of her parents. Chen Zhong recognized her as his adopted daughter. She followed us to escort the convoy, and then he You were sent back to Kyoto first, and we went to Yang'an County. Waiting for us to return to Kyoto By that time, she had already entered the palace to accompany the fifth princess, so what’s the problem? I don’t think there’s any big problem.”
“It’s not normal for Chen Zhong to think that her parents are leaving us. She was killed by Chen Zhong when we were in Anping County. I originally wanted to hide it, because Aunt Ping He once said that just a few hungry meals would be enough for his parents and brothers. At that time, I felt that this little lady looked strong but was actually very kind at heart. This is why I kept her with me. But when she knew that her parents were no longer here, she There was no reaction, including the fact that her second brother was gone, and she had no reaction either. What did you say? This made me suspicious that she had eaten something from the Queen Mother, so I went into the palace to find the Queen Mother. Why did they put on this show?"
Xing Yun asked hurriedly: "You mean you went into the palace? Did they lure you there intentionally?"
Wu Chen nodded.
Gu You pondered his thoughts, suddenly frowned and asked, "Did you find out about Shuangxi Village after you entered the palace and forced yourself to interrogate the Queen Mother?"
Wu Chen said: "The official said it out of anger. If it had been the Queen Mother, I'm afraid I would have thought more about it."
I received a lot of monthly votes, thank you! Hold your fist!
