Chapter Forty-Six: Late News
After Cheng Wu left, Xu An slowly opened his eyes and slowly sat up from the hillside.
sighed softly and said, "It's been half a month, and I'm really patient." ”
There was no one around, but Xu An suddenly said such a sentence, which made people feel that he was talking to himself.
"Still not coming out?"
Xu An slowly picked up a pile of stones from the ground, threw them upwards and caught them, maybe it was too small, he picked three larger ones from the ground.
Looking at the three stones in his hand and nodding slightly with satisfaction, he threw the first stone forward, and then the remaining two in two other directions.
He doesn't throw fast, and if there's a lake in front of him, it's like he's playing to pass the time.
The three stones were thrown out in turn, and Xu An clapped his hands and looked carefully at the position in front of him.
The next moment, the three places where he threw the stones moved, and the three black figures flashed to the side in turn.
"Masked? It's really nothing new, and though I can guess, I want to ask who asked you to come? Xu An asked with a chuckle.
"I've come to watch on the orders of Lord Luna. The three figures stood side by side, and the man in the middle spoke.
"If Wangshulou wants to spy on me, he will openly send someone to live directly in my house, and tell me that he is here to spy on me, instead of using such an unsightly method, as for you, I'm afraid it's not just so simple to monitor. Xu An shook his head lightly and said.
"The owner of the beef stall I often go to buy has changed, and I don't think he suddenly went somewhere else, because this town is his home, and he can't be away for so long. The beef you want to sell me must have been something, but unfortunately I've been drinking leftover soup for a month and haven't bought beef again. Xu An said with a wry smile that he didn't buy beef because he saw that there was a problem with the beef, but because he had no money!
"Of course, I'm not the only one who bought your beef, I also asked Aunt Zhang about the reaction of those who ate your beef, they weren't poisoned, you were only targeting me, which is why I didn't kill you. Xu An continued.
"If it is poisoned, it may be a better choice than beef water source, you know that you can't get close to my shop, the water in the town is the stream outside, you may know where the three small rivers go, so you don't dare to poison the water, but the stream outside is just a diversion, and it doesn't flow to Taiyin Mountain, if it is the people on Wangshu Tower, they won't know these problems." ”
"I tell you this because I don't want to kill you, because I know who you are, but I don't know who made you here. Xu An looked up at the sky and said.
"I can't tell you, and I ask Your Highness for forgiveness. The man in black thought for a moment and said.
"Tell me if the beef seller is dead or alive. Xu An nodded and said.
"He's alive. ”
"Well, you can't kill me, so let's go. ”
"Your Highness is magnanimous, and I deeply admire you, but the dangers of your way back to the capital are far more than these, please take care of your Highness. The three of them saluted respectfully.
"Why do you all think I'm going back to the capital?, what's going on in the capital?" Xu An asked with a frown on his brow when he heard this, and he felt more and more that something was wrong.
"I can't tell you, please forgive me. With that, the three of them departed.
Xu An stood in place and thought carefully, he was a little flustered, he was very afraid that something had happened to the capital, what he was worried about was not that His Royal Highness the eldest prince had been released as Li Wusheng said, he was more afraid of something else.
It's just that if something happened in the capital, why didn't Uncle Nine come to tell him? Xu An didn't know that Yang Hejiu had been trapped in the Spirit Academy by Mulanzhou.
"What are you doing here?" Cheng Wu had already turned back, looked at Xu An standing on a hillside and stopped running forward, and then asked.
"It's okay to figure out your identity, I'm your boss, can I care about what I'm doing here? Xu An jumped down and said.
"I thought you went to Wangshu Tower. Cheng Wu returned the sword to Xu An and said.
"What am I going to do in Wangshu Tower? Am I like someone looking for death?" Xu An returned with a depressed face.
"Thank you, I wouldn't have been able to see Ji Dongli's sword without you. Cheng Wu knew what kind of person Xu An was, so he didn't care about his attitude at all.
"Yes, you really saw something. Xu An nodded and looked at Cheng Wu and said.
"Wangshu Tower. Chifudo. Xu An remembered the Wangshulou in Chengwu's mouth just now, and muttered these two sentences softly.
Cheng Wu didn't know what he meant, and he didn't bother his thinking, just quietly watched what he wanted to do.
Xu An thought carefully for a while and still felt that something was wrong, Li Wusheng came to let him not go back to the capital, and the three of them also asked him not to go back to the capital, he believed that Li Wusheng would not dare to lie, but what happened to the capital to make everyone think that he wanted to go back to the capital?
With the strength of Zhifeng Tang, it is natural to easily receive news from the north, and with the penetration power of the Wei Mansion, he can also know what happened in the capital, but now Yun Wangshu and Chang Geng are one of them who refuses to show up, and the other is so frightened that it is too late to escape.
Could it be that something happened to the King of Beichang?
Xu An felt more and more flustered when he thought of this, and his body began to shake slightly, he pulled out the black sword and stabbed a sword into the sky, he knew that the people on Wangshu Tower could see this sword, and Yun Wangshu could also see this sword, he thought to himself that no matter who came from Wangshu Tower, he just wanted to know what was going on in the north.
After stabbing the sword, he began to sit down slowly, a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his mouth kept repeating: "Come on, come on." ”
Cheng Wu was taken aback by his reaction and hurriedly helped him sit down.
"What's wrong with you?" Cheng Wu also asked in a hurry.
Inside the Temple of the Moon God.
Lord Moon God sat quietly in the first place, he naturally saw Xu An's sword, and there were many people on the Wangshu Tower who saw the sword, including Yun Wangshu.
But he didn't let people go to check it, and like Yun Wangshu, he knew what this sword meant.
Yun Wangshu stood in the Moon God Temple and frowned, she knew what Xu An's sword meant, but she really felt that Wangshulou didn't dare to do anything to him with a sword just like this?
When did Wangshulou become a place for him to collect information? If he wanted to know where something was going on, he stabbed a sword at the sky, and then Wangshulou would send someone to tell him this?
Yun Wangshu was a little worried when she thought of this, she looked up at Lord Luna, but was a little surprised to find that Lord Lunae was not angry.
"If you want to go, go ahead. Lord Moon God caught Yun Wangshu's gaze and looked at her and said lightly.
"Yes. Yun Wangshu's frowning brows stretched slightly, and then he walked out of the Moon God Temple.
"I want to see what you guys do. Luna-sama thought about the sword just now, and then said with a smile.
Cheng Wu stayed by Xu An's side, looking to the west from time to time, he didn't think Xu An was such an impulsive person, although Wangshulou had let the two of them go, but Cheng Wu believed that in the face of Xu An's provocation, Wangshulou would not choose to ignore it, he knew very well that Xu An would not know this, but Xu An did not hesitate to stab out the sword, Cheng Wu faintly felt that something was wrong.
"You're really daring. After a while, Yun Wangshu came over from the west, and Yun Wangshu had not changed much compared to before, he was still dressed in white, and he was still so dusty.
"Tell me, is there something going on in the north?" Xu An saw that Yun Wangshu didn't say hello first, but immediately got up and asked what he wanted to know.
"King Beichang is critically ill. Yun Wangshu said lightly.
"When is the news?" Xu An asked when he heard this.
"The north is far away, the news was two months ago, and now I'm afraid it's..."Yun Wangshu said after thinking for a while.
"I'm going back..."Xu An repeated in a low voice with a trembling voice, and sat on the ground with his legs unsteadily.
"You should know very well why no one has come to tell you about such a big thing, many people don't want you to go back, and you should understand that even if you go back now, it won't be useful. Yun Wangshu said.
"I have to go back if it's useful or not, he's my father!" Xu An said with a roar at Yun Wangshu.
Cheng Wu was not shocked when he heard this, he knew that Xu An's identity was definitely not ordinary, but he didn't know what happened to Xu An, and he didn't know the situation in the Beichang Empire.
"Whatever you want. Yun Wangshu pursed his lips and said, seemingly a little unhappy with Xu An's attitude.
"Listen to me, my father has an accident, I want to go back, but I can't take you back, I can't go back with this sword, you take this sword, I will find you back after I take care of the matter. Xu An sat on the ground with trembling hands and handed the black sword to Cheng Wu in front of him, and then said quickly.
Cheng Wu didn't say anything, didn't ask anything, took the black sword from Xu An's hand and nodded.
"Why don't you take him with you?" Yun Wangshu asked as he looked at Xu An's reaction.
"I don't bring people or swords, just to tell those people that Lao Tzu is not going back to rebel!" Xu An stood up with difficulty and shouted loudly at the north, he is a little aggrieved now, why no one has come to tell me about such a big matter?
After Xu An said this, he ran towards the shop, he had nothing to pack, but he wanted to take someone back.
This morning, a monk named Li Wusheng came to Sanhe Town.
Xu An couldn't take Chengwu back, because it would make those people think that he was a rebel, but he could take this monk back, he wanted to know what else happened in the capital, why didn't the Spirit Academy and his father send someone to inform him.
