Chapter 200 General Flying Fish
If she were an ordinary woman, just looking at Shan Ji at this moment would probably make her legs go weak and her heart tremble with fear.
But Yun Chen was used to seeing murder and arson, and his own men had no idea how many people they had killed. So he was not afraid at all, but inexplicably felt very friendly, and unconsciously opened his mouth with a very intimate and familiar words:
"Did you just get back from your errand?"
Shan Ji did not feel awkward about the tone, and his expression became very gentle, completely different from the cold and disgusted look he had shown towards Huo Gan Nian just now:
"Well, I have an order for 400,000 gold to take the head of a foreign prince. I just got back from my work and wanted to see you."
Only then did Yun Chen notice that there was a black iron box placed next to the roof where Shan Ji had just sat. It was probably filled with the head of that foreign prince.
But Shan Ji spoke of this important task as casually as if he were saying, "I just came back from a walk."
Yun Chen instantly thought that Shan Ji must have had a more exciting and dangerous past than hers, where he had to face life and death.
For no reason at all, Yun Chen suddenly felt sorry for the "stranger" in front of him.
Seeing Yun Chen's thoughts, Shan Ji felt a little uncomfortable. He coughed to clear his throat, took out a thick stack of brand new red paper from his pocket and gave it to Yun Chen, saying:
"I know you've successfully borrowed troops, and you'll be setting off back to the Nan Kingdom in a few days. Here's to you. If you need anything in the future, you can find me at Duiyue Fenyan."
Yun Chen took the red paper in a daze, thinking: Who said just now that this thing is extremely expensive and it takes 30 days of secret recipe to make one?
"The headquarters of the Wuyi Blood Guard is in Zhao Country. If I go back to Nan Country to look for you, won't it be very difficult for you?" Yun Chen asked.
Shan Ji said, "That's fine. I should be moving to Nan Country soon. I won't be too far away from you."
Yun Chen asked again: "Then your master is still the head of the sect, does he agree to let you go?"
Shan Ji shrugged and said, "It's okay. If she doesn't agree, I'll kill her and become the leader."
Yun Chen grinned: "Don't tell me such confidential things, I still want to live..."
Shan Ji couldn't help laughing and whispered, "Chen'er, you are still the same as when you were a child."
Yun Chen was stunned for a moment, hearing the word "Chen'er", and then looked at Shan Ji's face. The more she looked, the more familiar it seemed, as if she had seen him somewhere.
Not many people call her Chen'er. Jiang Ming treats her like his own daughter, Huo Gannian regards her as the apple of his eye, and other than that, only her mother calls her that.
No, there is one more person.
All of a sudden, a lot of past events came flooding back to her mind, and she suddenly remembered who else would call her that! She couldn't help but exclaim in surprise:
"General Feiyu! Brother Feiyu!"
Finally recognized, but not completely recognized.
Shan Ji touched Yun Chen's head and said, "I haven't seen you for eleven years. You have grown into a big girl."
Yun Chen never expected to meet a childhood acquaintance in Zhao State, who turned out to be the famous Wuyi Blood Guard.
She instantly felt that the Wuyi Blood Guard was not so scary anymore, and happily put her arm around Shan Ji's arm:
"Brother Feiyu! Why are you here? When did you leave Youzhou?"
Hundreds of past events came to mind, almost all of them were bloody, inhuman, and unbearable, contrary to the laws of nature. However, Shan Ji just smiled:
"You ran away from home without even telling me. No one ate the fish I caught anymore, and I was so lonely that I came out to look for you. I accidentally learned martial arts and joined the Wuyi Blood Guard. That's how it happened."
Yun Chen didn't care about Shan Ji's joke. He was as happy as a little sparrow jumping up and down, chirping around Shan Ji and asking him questions.
"Brother Feiyu, why is there a copy of 'The Secret Book of Meaninglessness (Part 1)' underneath the stack of red paper you gave me? What's it for?"
"This is the exclusive secret technique of the Wuyi Blood Guards. I only have the first volume at the moment. The second volume is in the hands of the Sect Master and will be given to you in a few days. You should have fought the Wuyi Blood Guards a few times. Your skills are not inferior to theirs, but Wuyi cultivates internal Qi, which is more powerful than the acquired internal Qi you have learned. If you study this carefully, your martial arts will surely improve, and others will not be able to easily defeat you."
"Wow—Brother Feiyu, you're so kind to me! But how are you going to explain this to Wuyi Blood Guard?"
"Don't worry, I can handle it."
"Brother Feiyu, if the Wuyi Blood Guards won't let you go, then just take the secret book back. Don't take any risks. Or you can ask me to help you fight! I'm very good with a sword!"
"No need. From now on, no matter who asks about us, just say that we played together as children. Don't say anything else."
"Why?"
After a moment of silence, Shan Ji's expression was complicated, and a hint of violence and gloom flashed in his eyes.
To Huo Gannian and Yun Chen, the Wuyi Blood Guard might just be a terrifying and money-greedy killer organization.
But in the circle of assassins, the Unrighteous Blood Guards represent the strongest force and the highest honor.
I don’t know how many people want to become Wuyi Xuewei’s disciple, but they can’t even get through the door.
Because the first principle of joining the Wuyi Blood Guard is "no relatives within the five degrees of mourning", only orphans whose relatives have all died can join the Wuyi Blood Guard.
"If others knew about your existence, they might cause trouble and implicate you." Shan Ji said.
Yun Chen didn’t quite understand. She was not Shan Ji’s relative, just a childhood playmate. Was it that important?
Considering the Wuyi Blood Guards' superb killing skills and harsh style, Yun Chen stopped asking questions and chose to obey.
The two chatted about some childhood memories until Huo Gannian in the outer courtyard became very impatient, coughing constantly and deliberately making some attention-grabbing noises, then Shan Ji said goodbye to Yun Chen and left.
When passing by Huo Gan Nian, Shan Ji saw Huo Gan Nian's slightly raised chin and the hostile posture of a "rival in love". He found it very funny, frowned, and said in a reprimanding tone:
"Get your mind right! Before you drag her into your inner chambers, have you asked her father? If you want to marry her, then go to her palace and ask for her name, then formally propose marriage. How can you be so frivolous without even asking the imperial court?"
Huo Gannian was well-read and knew very well about these matters of propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame.
It's just that she had already given her whole heart to Yun Chen and would never allow anyone else to be with her in this life. She had been single for more than 20 years. She looked at Yun Chen, this warm and soft jade, in her arms every day but couldn't eat him. She was aroused by lust and lost her manners.
Huo Gannian felt ashamed after being scolded by Shan Ji, but he still stiffened his neck and cursed:
"What does it have to do with you? Who are you, Yun Chen?"
Shan Ji did not reply, but Yun Chen, who came out to see him off, called out sweetly:
"Brother Feiyu, please walk slower!"
Shan Ji nodded to Yun Chen, then jumped onto the roof, picked up the box containing the human head, and his figure suddenly disappeared into the night.
Huo Gannian was left standing there, feeling frustrated and angry, unable to speak.
