Chapter 2014: Trouble



Not long after the two of them stayed on the roadside, they saw a large group of people coming along the official road. When the scout in front of them saw the two of them on the roadside, he immediately stopped, looked carefully, and then quickly turned and left. Then after a while, the scout appeared in front of the two of them again, riding his horse and whipping his whip.

"May I ask if this is Mr. Fang Zheng?"

The scout first glanced at Ji Yanran, then clasped his fists towards Fang Zheng and asked. This is also normal. Although Ji Yanran is famous all over the world, her fame is more than ten times that of Fang Zheng. Unfortunately, this world has poor information exchange, no TV, movies, newspapers, magazines, so ordinary people can't recognize Ji Yanran at all.

Fang Zheng was different. Although he was not much more famous than Ji Yanran, Fang Zheng's characteristics were too distinct and difficult to imitate. After all, if you wanted an average person to find a deer this big, it had to be white, and it had to be obedient and let people ride it... that was not something that everyone could do.

So just by looking at the person riding a white deer, you can basically determine the person by the first impression.

"It's Fang, what can I do for you?"

Fang Zheng chuckled, and the scout quickly lowered his head.

"Xiang Shaolong and Xiang Bingwei invite you two, please follow me."

"OK."

Fang Zheng nodded, then rode the white deer and entered the convoy with Ji Yanran. At this moment, Ji Yanran also curiously rode the horse and came to Fang Zheng's side.

"Does Mr. Fang have any history with the Zhao people?"

"I know a guy, we have a pretty good relationship, and I can tell he's working hard."

Fang Zheng answered with a smile, and at the same time he was curious about why Xiang Shaolong was looking for him. Judging from his behavior, he didn't want to treat him to wine and meat.

Soon, the two saw Xiang Shaolong in the convoy. When Xiang Shaolong saw Fang Zheng appear, his eyes lit up and he hurried forward to salute.

"Xiang has met Master Fang."

"It's been a while since we last met. It seems you're still in good shape."

Fang Zheng was grinning as he looked at Xiang Shaolong, who was wearing full armor and riding a tall horse. Xiang Shaolong seemed a little embarrassed. He had never thought of showing off in front of Fang Zheng. After all, the impression this young man left on him was too unfathomable. Especially the martial arts and internal skills that appeared out of thin air in his mind before. At that time, Xiang Shaolong didn't pay much attention to it. After all, he had also read martial arts novels.

It was not until later when he was practicing swordplay that Xiang Shaolong learned from others about the current level of martial arts in this world. As a result, he attached more and more importance to the things he had obtained, and his impression of Fang Zheng was also repeatedly improved. Originally, Xiang Shaolong thought that Fang Zheng should be the legendary immortal, and he was afraid that he would not see him again for a hundred years.

I didn't expect to meet him again on the way to Daliang.

This god seems to be very idle...

"This is..."

Ji Yanran's appearance is unparalleled in the world. She has been surrounded by people since she joined the motorcade, but she is used to it. However, Xiang Shaolong couldn't help asking, and Ji Yanran smiled slightly. Fang Zheng also turned sideways to introduce her.

"This is Master Ji Yanran. Master Ji and I were traveling around and are planning to return to Daliang now."

"It turns out to be the world-famous talented lady Ji!"

Everyone didn't know Ji Yanran's name before, but when they heard her name, they were immediately excited, their eyes sparkling, just like modern fans who see a star in person, they gathered around excitedly. Only Xiang Shaolong was still confused, after all, he hadn't been in Zhao for long, and he was always worried about life and death, so how could he have time to care about rumors about the most beautiful woman in the world.

However, Xiang Shaolong was not a fool after all. Looking at the expressions of the people around him, he knew that this beauty must have an extraordinary identity. He hurriedly stepped forward to stop the others' reckless behavior, and then quickly reported the matter.

It must be said that Ji's talent is indeed well-known. After learning that Ji Yanran was here, the core figure of the team, Zhao Qian, the princess of Zhao State, soon invited Ji Yanran to get on the carriage for a chat. Ji Yanran also readily agreed to this. She was on good terms with dignitaries from various countries. Given her status, most of the people were naturally women. Anyway, the goal of this team was also Daliang. She was free anyway, so she might as well chat with the princess of Zhao State.

Ji Yanran got on the carriage, and Xiang Shaolong dragged Fang Zheng over. It was obvious that he had learned about Ji Yanran's true identity from his own family, and he couldn't help but speak with envy.

"Mr. Fang is really romantic and free-spirited. I didn't expect that the most beautiful woman in the world could be conquered by you. It's really comfortable to watch you two traveling around."

"Brother Xiang is doing well, isn't he?"

Fang Zheng did not respond to this conversation, but looked at Xiang Shaolong with a smile, sizing up the armor on his body.

"I heard that you are already a soldier? You are in charge of the mission to Wei this time. I guess you are already a big shot in Zhao."

"What kind of person is this..."

It would have been better if Fang Zheng hadn't said anything. As soon as Xiang Shaolong said it, his face suddenly turned bitter. He couldn't tell these words to others, but for this god-like figure, Xiang Shaolong had nothing to worry about.

"To be honest, I am having a hard time in Zhao State right now. If I take a wrong step, disaster will befall me. Not only will it affect me, but it may also affect others... Sigh..."

Having said that, Xiang Shaolong sighed tiredly, while Fang Zheng glanced at him silently.

"It is the most difficult to accept the kindness of a beautiful woman. If Brother Xiang stays away from beautiful women, he won't have so many troubles."

Are you kidding? Isn't Xiang Shaolong asking for a beating by playing the victim in front of him? It's fine if you lie to others, but Fang Zheng has read A Step into the Past and knows that Xiang Shaolong flirted with many beauties in Zhao State and even got the precious pearl of the Wu family. You are taking advantage of me here. Believe it or not, I will beat you.

If it weren't for those beauties, you would have run away long ago. Why are you still staying here?

"Well……"

Hearing Fang Zheng's insinuating sarcasm, Xiang Shaolong's face turned red. It was obvious that the other party knew about the ugly things he had done. Although Xiang Shaolong didn't know how Fang Zheng knew it, since the other party was a god... it was not surprising that he could predict the future.

"But there is one thing I don't understand, and I would like to ask Brother Xiang for advice."

"Mr. Fang, please speak."

Looking at Xiang Shaolong in front of him, Fang Zheng hesitated for a moment, then frowned and asked.

"What's so good about Zhao Ya that you're obsessed with her so much?"

Fang Zheng was very confused about this question when he was watching A Step into the Past. Zhao Ya is the sister of the King of Zhao and the wife of Zhao Kuo, who was good at talking about war on paper. In A Step into the Past, this woman is a playboy and a prostitute who can sleep with anyone. She is well known for her charming appearance. Xiang Shaolong also had a brief relationship with her, and from the beginning, he used her and trusted her. Unfortunately, Zhao Ya was a hopeless case. She was so overwhelmed that she betrayed Xiang Shaolong several times, and Xiang Shaolong actually endured it all... This Fang Zheng could not understand.

Originally, if it was a man from this world, it would be fine if it was the current world. But Xiang Shaolong was a modern man who traveled through time. It would be fine if he was just pretending to be nice to the bus because of the situation, but what the hell is it that you are really sincere?

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Xiang Shaolong suddenly looked embarrassed, as if the neighbor next door was caught by the neighbor's husband.

"I never thought that this rumor would reach your ears, Master Fang."

"Zhao Ya is a woman of loose character and weak will. If you want to achieve something, you'd better stay away from her."

Seeing Xiang Shaolong's embarrassed look, Fang Zheng didn't know what to say. He could only make a few comments. As for whether Xiang Shaolong would listen or not, he didn't care.

"I will definitely keep in mind what Master Fang said."

Regardless of whether Xiang Shaolong listened to Fang Zheng's words or not, his attitude on the surface was still good. He just nodded obediently and then came to Fang Zheng again.

"Mr. Fang, in fact, Xiang invited you here this time because I have something to tell you."

"Oh? What's that?"

"Master Fang, do you still remember the group of horse thieves with gray beards?"

"Remember, their war horses sold for a lot of money."

Fang Zheng said that he made a lot of money from that deal, and upon hearing this, Xiang Shaolong gave a bitter smile, then his face became serious.

"In fact, I just got the news two days ago. The gray-bearded man seems to be the King of Wei's men. They should be the Wei army pretending to be horse thieves, causing chaos in various countries..."

"oh."

Facing this bombshell dropped by Xiang Shaolong, Fang Zheng seemed very calm, which surprised Xiang Shaolong.

"Isn't Mr. Fang surprised?"

"Of course not. I saw that the other day."

Fang Zheng looked at Xiang Shaolong as if he were an idiot.

"Eight hundred horse bandits, all on war horses, advancing and retreating in moderation. If you say they are just ordinary bandits, someone has to believe it, right?"

Besides, similar things have always happened in history, such as privateering, and the British Empire, which always had the sun, was also very good at it.

But it started so early in China.

"Mr. Fang is truly a strange man..."

Xiang Shaolong was speechless, and felt that the other party seemed to be despising his intelligence... Well, he really had nothing to say.

"But the problem is not just this. The more important thing is that in recent days, the bandits in Wei State seem to be planning to gather together and want to harm our diplomatic corps. Not only that, I heard that they are also planning to conspire with the King of Wei to deal with you, Master Fang..."

"So you came to me this time to get help?"

Fang Zheng chuckled and looked at Xiang Shaolong again, while Xiang Shaolong laughed in return.

"Mr. Fang is very smart and intelligent, so I won't say much. I promised Princess Zhao Qian that I would bring her to Daliang intact. If I can get Mr. Fang's help, it will be better than the strength of a thousand men."

You can ask me to help you solve your problems and pick up girls by yourself, which is also possible. You are worthy of being the first stud in time-travel literature.

Fang Zheng silently raised his middle finger in his heart.

"Well, although Fang is not interested in conflicts between countries, since he is a bandit who is causing trouble for one side..."

Having said this, Fang Zheng touched his chin and smiled meaningfully.

"Naturally Fang feels obliged to do so."
