Chapter 426 Xiang Tian
Si Linglong was walking towards Yongjing in a noisy manner.
On the other side, Bai Qianqian, who was far away on Yutai Mountain, quietly left Huguo Temple under the cover of Ziyue.
From that night on, she realized that she was the protagonist of this world, and Bai Qianqian had no intention of staying obediently on the mountain as Helian Yue wished.
After knowing what might happen in the future in her dream, Bai Qianqian was even glad that Helian Yue left her behind.
After all, if not for this, she would not have the opportunity to hide from everyone's sight and find the person she was looking for.
"Are you sure the person I asked you to inquire about before is in there?" Bai Qianqian asked the guard Wang Shouxian who was driving outside while sitting in the car.
Of course, she couldn't go out alone. This guard was specially arranged by Helian Tuo to be by her side before he left. He was not only to protect her safety, but also to ensure that he could be notified in time if anything happened.
As early as the day after the Holy Driver left, she sent him to Lancheng to help her confirm some things.
"I have personally confirmed that the man is in Yonghe Town under Lancheng. His name is Xiang Tian. In addition to two elderly people, he also has a younger sister who was kidnapped three years ago and her whereabouts are unknown. She is now making a living in a steel shop."
Wang Shouxian paused and asked, "But I don't understand why Your Majesty went out of her way to look for this person?"
"He is not an ordinary person." Bai Qianqian smiled but did not give a direct answer, "He is also the person I need most right now."
…
Lancheng is adjacent to Pingcheng, and it takes four or five hours to get there from Yutai Mountain. It was already late when Bai Qianqian and Wang Shouxian arrived.
Bai Qianqian only took a short rest in the inn and then suggested going to see where the man lived.
Because the place where Xiang Tian lived was mostly inhabited by some poor individual tenants from outside, the whole alley looked a bit run-down. Bai Qianqian, dressed in silk and with bodyguards, appeared in such a place and almost immediately attracted the attention of people around her.
This was also Bai Qianqian's first time in such a place. Even though there were people around her, she couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
According to her memory in her dream, she should have met Xiang Tian in March of next year. At that time, he was on the run and had no home.
It was only by chance that Bai Qianqian heard him mention it and learned that his home was in Yonghe Town, Lancheng.
According to her memory, he must have suffered the accident within the past two months.
Bai Qianqian knew very well that the future she saw in her dream had shifted, so she naturally couldn't just sit there and wait for death.
Rather than gambling on whether she will meet her most loyal helper in the future next March, she might as well take the initiative to find him.
Bai Qianqian was thinking this, but she didn't notice that someone was quietly following them.
Wang Shouxian was a martial artist, so he was the first to notice something was wrong. He was about to whisper a warning to his queen when he saw two men with shifty eyes walking out in front of him.
At the same time, several hooligans following behind the two also appeared.
Their eyes passed over Wang Shouxian, then swept across Bai Qianqian's dress and jewelry, and finally fell on her fair and smooth face, with a few evil lights flashing in their eyes.
"Whose young lady is so beautiful? But you are lost? Do you want your brothers to show you the way?"
Bai Qianqian noticed the gazes on these people and frowned in disgust, but because Wang Shouxian was there, she didn't worry that he wouldn't be able to handle so many hooligans.
"Wang Shouxian! I feel disgusted when I see them. Tell them to disappear from my sight."
Wang Shouxian had already prepared himself and nodded when he heard the voice. "Madam, please step aside. I will handle it."
Having said that, he rushed straight towards the person who had just spoken as fast as the wind.
Since they had sneaked out secretly and didn't want to cause any casualties or cause a disturbance, Wang Shouxian just wanted to teach them a lesson.
Wang Shouxian was assigned by Helian Tuo to be by Bai Qianqian's side, so his martial arts skills must be quite high.
But he obviously underestimated the abilities of these country hooligans.
In terms of martial arts, these people are far inferior to him, but Wang Shouxian is a guard who was raised in an orthodox and law-abiding manner and he rarely goes to the market, so he still doesn't fully understand the methods of these street thugs.
One of them, seeing that he couldn't win the fight, took the opportunity to throw a handful of ash at him.
Wang Shouxian felt a stinging pain in his eyes and was unable to see for a while.
Seeing this, those hooligans rushed forward immediately. Wang Shouxian was kicked a few times accidentally and was at a disadvantage in an instant.
Bai Qianqian's face turned extremely ugly in an instant. She didn't dare to stay any longer and was about to run away after lifting her skirt.
One of the hooligans saw this and quickly stepped in front of her, grabbed her wrist and pushed her against the wall with force, grinning, "You still want to run?! Do you think you can run away?"
