Chapter 895: Neither Existence nor Non-Existence (I)
If any accident really happens, all the faults will be borne by me.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on Li Zimu's face, and there was an unquestionable determination in his eyes.
It seemed that this was no longer a discussion with Zhang San, but an order.
As for Zhang San's reaction to this, "You"
With his eyes wide open, Zhang San was stunned for a moment.
He knew that Li Zimu was much smarter than him, so this decision was definitely made after careful consideration.
Of course it shouldn't be like this. How could Li Zimu not understand how important those 100,000 demon soldiers are?
Unless she was sure that Wei Changtian was in danger.
"Miss Li, do you know something that I don't know?"
Frowning, Zhang San said in a deep voice: "It's already this time, there's no need to hide it anymore."
"What happened to him, young master?"
"Brother Zhang, I really know as much as you do."
Li Zimu lowered his head: "I just have a very bad feeling."
"Premonition?"
Zhang San never expected to hear such an explanation.
Such a serious decision, you said you relied on your feelings? Zhang San's expression suddenly became strange. Just as he was about to say something, he was interrupted by Li Zimu:
"Brother Zhang, I know you must find this ridiculous."
"But Young Master, he might really be in danger now."
"We can't come up with anything right now, so please trust me this time."
"Hurry up and send a message to my wife."
“.”
There was a hint of pleading in his tone, which was enough to show that Li Zimu was determined to stick to his own judgment.
Zhang San didn't say anything else, just watched her hesitate for a moment.
Although both of them are Wei Changtian's confidants, there is no difference in their identities and status.
But from the perspective of "giving advice", Li Zimu is undoubtedly the one who is more valued.
Therefore, even though Zhang San felt that this matter was unreliable, he finally gritted his teeth and nodded.
"Okay, I'll pass the message on."
"I wish you were telling the truth! I wish you were telling the truth."
"Um."
Li Zimu breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head and glanced at the sunset outside the window, and murmured to himself:
“I hope my feeling is wrong”
Three hundred miles north of Linchuan City.
"Boom boom"
The animal's hooves stepped on the ground, and the loud sound was dull and depressing.
Amid the flying dust, an endless herd of beasts were galloping forward tirelessly, leaving behind only densely packed footprints that went several inches into the ground wherever they passed.
"Demon King, we only have one day to reach Linchuan City."
On a low hill, Yang Liushi looked down at the beast tide below her feet and said to the woman in white skirt beside her: "I hope you can control your demon soldiers well and don't make any mistakes."
"As long as you can do this, we will return the remaining three holy fruits, and we will also fulfill the benefits we promised you."
"But if you can't do that, then you may have to wait another sixty years for your sacred tree to bear fruit again."
Turning her head to look at the woman in the white dress, Yang Liushi did not hide the threat in her words at all.
The former didn't say anything, but just looked at Yang Liushi with a somewhat ugly expression, and then looked at Xu Quan who was standing not far away.
She was undoubtedly disgusted with the two people, a man and a woman, who suddenly appeared and stole the holy fruit.
A fox demon whose strength is not weaker than his own.
A strange human being whose realm seems not very high but can actually control monsters.
More importantly, the holy fruit is now in the hands of this man. Faced with such a combination, the woman in white dress had no way to "get rid of them immediately", so she could only compromise and agree to Yang Liushi's request to send troops to Linchuan City.
She didn't care whether she was being used or not, she just wanted to get back the holy fruit that was extremely important to her.
After all, if you can't get it back, you'll have to wait until sixty years later for the next time.
"This king knows."
After coldly replying to Yang Liu's poem, the "counter-threat" of the woman in white dress seemed pale and powerless.
"I hope you won't break your promise, otherwise I will spend my entire life to avenge you!"
"Well, don't worry, Demon King. We demons always keep our promises."
"Wait a minute, I'll be gone for a while."
As he was speaking, Yang Liushi suddenly felt the jade on his chest getting slightly warm, so he smiled and walked to a nearby place.
The woman in the white dress ignored her and just stared at the herd of animals at the foot of the mountain helplessly.
A moment later, when Yang Liushi hurried back and called Xu Quan away, she realized something.
Turning around and looking at the two people talking in the distance, the woman in the white dress was stunned.
Of course, she could see that there was something wrong with Yang Liushi and Xu Quan's expressions.
So. The woman in the white dress narrowed her eyes and chuckled, feeling that perhaps she didn't have to compromise like this anymore.
Linchuan City, a small inn in the east of the city.
At dusk, I lean on the red railing alone, and the new moon appears in the southwest.
The sun is setting and the new moon is rising.
At the turn of day and night, Gu Paner walked to the window again and looked out silently.
The joy and anticipation on his face disappeared at some point, and were replaced by a little worry and a little loss.
Of course, the worry came from the fear that something might have happened to Wei Changtian.
The reason for the loss was not because of the fear of not being able to borrow money, but because she felt that Wei Changtian might have left.
After all, although Wei Changtian lived in this inn, he didn't bring any luggage with him, so he was very likely to leave at any time.
Why didn't you tell me? Gu Paner knew that she shouldn't have such "extravagant hopes", but she couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.
When she thought that she might never see Wei Changtian again, she realized that she had not even properly thanked him.
Not necessarily.
Master Wei might still be busy and might come back later.
If you are too tired, I will not mention borrowing money later and let him have a good rest.
Well, the young master shouldn’t leave without saying goodbye.
He still wants me to pay him back, so he should at least tell me where to find him. He lowered his head and left the window, sitting at the tea table in a daze, feeling uneasy.
She wanted to comfort herself, but she felt more and more uneasy.
So after sitting for a while, she stood up, put on her coat, carefully put the one thousand taels of silver and a small purse in her arms, pushed the door and walked out of the room.
I rented a carriage from the inn and got into it under the last rays of light in the sky.
Gu Paner didn't know why she was so nervous, so she wanted to go to the temple to worship.
Just like that, with the sound of "gurgling" wheels, the carriage slowly drove away from the entrance of the inn and headed towards the only temple in Linchuan City.
It was sunset at this time, and it was time for people to go home. The hustle and bustle of the streets caused Gu Paner's carriage to move slowly.
However, Gu Paner was not in a hurry. She just looked at the scenery on the roadside through the car window, and then cast her gaze to the Yun'an Temple in the distance, which was located on a hill, or rather a slope.
The crescent moon hangs in the corner of the sky, and Yun'an Temple seems particularly peaceful tonight.
