Chapter 321 Like Another Person
Along the way, Xiaohuo didn't dare to open his claws that were covering his face, for fear of seeing something he shouldn't see.
In the end, I was caught off guard by the scene in front of me.
"Hmm..."
Oh, it's really tired, destroy it!
Hearing the barely perceptible murmurs, the two people below pulled themselves out.
Luo Diandian coughed twice to ease the awkward atmosphere.
However, Lu Wuhui looked calm and didn't care much about it.
After a busy night, it would be better to enter the city as soon as possible and rest.
The closer you get to the center of the city, the smaller the impact of floods and plagues becomes.
As expected, it was the common people of low status who suffered in the end. There was no government official to control the plague in remote areas.
Or, they only want to take care of a small number of people first. Reality is so cruel. Maybe this is why ghosts specifically choose those small places to attack?
Now Luo Diandian can only hope that the two major forces in the world of immortal cultivation can find out more information about the ghost clan and deal with the remaining matters as soon as possible.
After walking for a long time, they finally found an inn affected by the flood and found horses, and then they set off for Huaicheng.
......
On the spacious and flat streets, horses galloped back and forth, the sounds of merchants hawking their wares could be heard constantly, and the surrounding shops were filled with a wide variety of goods.
The clean and spacious environment is completely different from the scenery outside the city that we passed by before.
There are complete facilities for flood evacuation here, not to mention the guards who strictly control the entry and exit of plague patients. Even the medical isolation point is fully equipped to deal with plague patients in the city in a timely manner.
At this time, Luo Diandian was sitting high up in the restaurant, looking at the scenery outside the window. Although the situation was definitely not as prosperous as before due to the flood, it was relatively well under control.
Everyone still had masks on their faces, but they dared to go out to buy and sell things.
"Sir, what can I order?"
At this time, the waiter came forward and looked at the two people wearing veils in the box. They seemed to have some extraordinary temperament, so he did not dare to neglect and asked respectfully.
"This, this, and this... bring one... two of each."
Luo Diandian pointed at the menu and ordered several novel dishes. She originally wanted to order only one, but considering that Xiaohuo had now advanced to the God Transformation stage and must have a big appetite, she changed her mind.
After telling Xiaohuo what she and she liked, she pushed the menu to Lu Wuhui sitting opposite her.
"Husband, what would you like to eat?"
The casual address made the person opposite frown slightly, and suddenly raised his eyes to look at her.
A strange feeling filled his heart, and Lu Wuhui ignored the menu in front of him for a moment.
The two of them rarely called each other by their names, so this address made him a little fluctuating.
However, Luo Diandian's idea was very simple. Since the two of them were in the mortal world and their relationship was there, she just spoke in front of outsiders.
But who would have thought that this shout was so powerful. Seeing that he didn't respond, Luo Diandian shouted again.
Lu Wuhui finally responded, "It's up to you to choose."
"Okay." Luo Diandian could only order two more desserts for him that were not too greasy.
After all the dishes were served, Luo Diandian locked the door and made sure the surroundings were safe before letting Xiaohuo show up.
Xiaohuo had been looking at the table full of food and was so greedy that he quickly rushed over and started to eat.
Luo Diandian also picked up the chopsticks and started eating, but as she ate, her ears moved slightly and she unconsciously listened to the conversations in the surrounding boxes.
"The flooding around here is really annoying. The government doesn't have enough manpower. We can only watch people die of exhaustion."
"What can we do? Our terrain is low-lying and undulating. There's no place to drain all this water. However, it would be great if we could divert the water north..."
"Forget it. It's good enough that the King of Zhou didn't take this opportunity to attack our Southern Kingdom. How can you still expect cooperation? If you ask me, maybe this flood is the work of the King of Zhou's newly recruited Imperial Master!"
"Where did you get that? Could it be that this person can actually control the will of heaven?"
At this time, Luo Diandian also pricked up her ears quietly.
Lu Wuhui sipped his tea and stared at her eavesdropping appearance.
"You may not know this, but King Zhou is now approaching sixty, yet somehow he still retains the youthful appearance of a thirty-year-old, and his body is radiant, youthful, and strong!"
"Is this really true? You're talking nonsense. I don't believe in all this weird stuff. Could it be that immortality really exists?"
"Don't disbelieve me! I heard that this happened because his newly recruited Imperial Master gave him a magical elixir. So maybe the flood here was caused by the Imperial Master's witchcraft!"
"So, King Zhou is actively seeking a young and beautiful woman. I'm afraid he's trying to show off his virility even in old age."
"Hahaha, you also know this interesting story?"
"Of course not! The King of Zhou has brought his people to our Qin State. In my opinion, this person does not exist in the world..."
King of Zhou?
The dusty memories suddenly flooded towards Luo Diandian like a tide. How could she have forgotten them?
The Human Emperor, Zhou Jinshen.
According to the plot of the original novel, the heroine had a brief relationship with the other person in the mortal world, helped him, and was infected with cause and effect.
But this is not a big deal for the heroine. After all, the person she saved became the future ruler of the world, unified the human world, and was eventually recognized by heaven.
She was considered a meritorious person, but this also caused the Human Emperor to be obsessed with her.
Later, when the heroine returned to the mortal world, he pursued her fiercely and was even willing to give up his kingdom for her and pass the throne to his nephew.
The heroine was also moved and brought him back to the world of immortal cultivation to become one of her harem concubines.
But now Luo Diandian knows that the Chu Yi in the original book is not the same person as the current one.
Thinking about it carefully, could it be that in the original novel, as early as in the peach forest, the ghost clan used secret methods to take over Chu Yi's body at the first opportunity?
But things changed later when Luo Diandian joined.
What happened later in the Five Sects Trial was just an attempt to correct the plot, not the beginning!
Based on Shao Xiaoling's description of Chu Yi, Luo Diandian felt that she was not the person in the original novel, so things like taking the Human Emperor into the harem should not happen again.
But her earlier rescue really caught Zhou Jinshen's attention.
The true identity of this "national teacher" is very intriguing, and Luo Diandian really can't think of a second candidate.
But these are all her own guesses, conclusions drawn from a God's perspective and based on the original plot, but how should she tell Lu Wuhui about these?
"Tell me, if I hadn't appeared, would you have fallen in love with someone else in another world?"
Luo Diandian asked this, raised her head, and just fell into his deep eyes.
