Chapter 50: The Nightmare
"Boss Chen misunderstood. Don't say that just with your current appearance, you have a heart and are powerless, even if you are powerful? Why are you doing this? This business was originally set by you, and I can't think of any reason for you to go back on your word. ”
"Then why do you bother to get this gunpowder out?"
“。。。 I'm just thinking, you've been sleeping on the side of gunpowder for ten years, and you've probably never had a day of restful sleep. So for the rest of the day, no matter how long it takes, I hope you get a good night's sleep. ”
Chen Yuan suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Yue, his eyes seemed to shake slightly, and he showed a relieved smile after a while.
"If there is an afterlife, please give me a chance to repay the kindness of today."
Yue didn't answer for a while, and was silent for a long time before speaking.
"If you really want to repay me, then repay this favor for revenge, drink Meng Po soup cleanly, and don't remember the debt of this life even if there is a cause in the next life."
Hu Er originally thought that Lu Chongguang had just had a big quarrel with Chen Yuan, and he was afraid that he would have gone away, but as soon as he walked out of the courtyard, he saw a figure standing alone in the distance, but under the four eyes, there were thousands of words beyond words.
Hu Er reluctantly said hello to Lu Chongguang and ran back to the courtyard as if he were running away, not being able to bear to take another look.
Yue watched Lu Chongguang walk in, and finally knew the secret that Chen Yuan had hidden for ten years, but the shock, pain, and disbelief on his face were all true.
He really didn't know.
"I need to transport this gunpowder to the closest place to the dock but not be discovered by Gu Mingyi, but I really can't do without Boss Lu's help, so I have to invite Boss Lu back."
"The girl is polite, this is a matter within Chongguang's business, the place has already been prepared, Chongguang will ask someone to move away."
Those complicated and painful expressions flashed across Lu Chongguang's face, and when he turned around, he only had numb indifference left in the face of Yue.
Chen Yuan had been sitting in the room without saying a word and looking at the people coming in and out, but Lu Chongguang never looked at him again, as if all he was sitting there was a cloud of empty air.
Until the last barrel of gunpowder was also transported out of Chen Yuan's room, the dawn of the sky had already torn apart the darkness of the night.
"Wait."
Lu Chongguang's feet had already crossed the threshold, but he stopped because of Chen Yuan's voice.
He still turned his back to Chen Yuan without saying a word, as if he couldn't wait to escape from here, but Chen Yuan's next words made him turn his head sharply.
"Move those boxes of gold away, give them away or melt them, in short, dispose of them as you like."
“。。。 What do you mean by that?! ”
Lu Chongguang seemed to suddenly understand something, and his tone was mixed with countless unbelievable surprises and even trembled slightly.
Chen Yuan opened his mouth slightly, but suddenly lost all his words.
How can he explain it?
He crawled in the dark for twenty years, and at the end of his life he just wanted a few carefree night's sleep in the sun?
"Haven't you always wanted to go back to the Northland? I've been sleeping in this room for ten years, and now I realize that the four walls are really boring, and it's time to change places. ”
Lu Chongguang looked at Chen Yuan in a daze, only to feel that the words ringing in his ears were like a wonderful fireworks, until his eyes were suddenly wet, but what he shed were tears of ecstasy.
"It's a shame that you still shed tears at such an old age!"
Chen Yuan glanced at the water trail that reflected the morning light path shining with disgust, but his eyes couldn't help but be a little red.
"I'm going to prepare, the girl's great grace will never be forgotten."
Lu Chongguang ignored him, but turned around and made a big bow very respectfully.
Yue smiled slightly, calmly accepted this big gift, but in a blink of an eye, he motioned to Hu Er to carry Chen Yuan.
"Boss Lu doesn't have to be anxious, wait until this matter is sorted out, and then ask Boss Lu to come to me and discuss something. As for Boss Chen, I will take it away first, and it will save Boss Lu from worrying about the next few days, anyway, Boss Chen is tired of seeing these four old walls. ”
"Yes, yes, it's still the girl's thoughtfulness. I have placed Miss Su in the inner courtyard next door, and I immediately asked the doctors to take care of her with her, and when I have sorted out this matter, I will go to see her immediately. ”
Yue nodded and agreed, and took Chen Yuan to the inner courtyard with Hu Er, and as soon as Chen Yuan was settled, he fell asleep deeply.
Hu Er looked at Chen Yuan's frowning appearance even though he had fallen into a deep sleep, and couldn't help but open his mouth as soon as he stepped out of the room.
"I didn't expect the girl to untie the knot that Chen Yuan had hidden for twenty years in just a few words, if he could have met the girl earlier, maybe he wouldn't have to...
"What's the possibility. You think that meeting him earlier will make him less painful, but the Chen Yuan of the past is not the Chen Yuan of today. If it were Chen Yuan, who had not avenged his revenge ten years ago, I am afraid that he would not even listen to my words today, and he would have blasted me out in a rage. ”
Before Yue finished speaking, she noticed that Hu Er's eyes looking at her were ten out of ten strange, and without waiting for her to ask, she hurriedly threw down a sentence and fled out of the yard.
"Girl, rest for a while, and we'll discuss the rest when Boss Lu comes."
Yue looked at the back of Hu Er's escape, and was stunned for a long time before he suddenly understood something.
Not only Lu Chongguang and Chen Yuan, but also Hu Er is just a mortal.
"The gunpowder has been settled, and it has been checked, and after some long periods of time, all the dampness and unusable have been disposed of, and the rest can be lit."
"Well, there's Boss Laolu."
Yue rested silently in the room for a while, but after a little nap, Lu Chongguang and Hu Er came together. Lu Chongguang looked very tired, but his eyes swept away the depression and haze of the past, shining brightly.
"As for the gold, I've secretly handed it over to someone credible to find a way to send it to the Northland."
“。。。 Why do you bother? Boss Chen is seriously ill, and there are many places where money is needed... ”
"Don't worry, girl, although I can't compare to the Lord, I have saved a lot of money over the years. I know that the Lord is not short of money, but in this special period, I can have a little more. What's more, those treasures have always been a burden on my heart, and now that I can finally unload them, I wish I could throw them as far away as possible. ”
"It's okay, then I'll thank Boss Lu for the punishment."
"Girl, now that the gunpowder is ready, how will the rest be arranged?"
"There are three things that are most important at the moment, and I ask you to get them done. First, after we have finished our discussion, we will ask the two of you to go back to sleep immediately, and make sure that you are well refreshed so that you can cope with the next things. ”
As soon as Yue spoke, Lu Chongguang and Hu Er looked at each other with a smile, but when her words fell, their expressions had changed to solemnity.
She's right, the next half day and a day at most will be a real hard battle, and they can't cope with it in their current state.
"Second, please Boss Lu evacuate all the people in this Lu Mansion as soon as he wakes up, be sure to arrange them properly, the action must not only be fast but also small, and Gu Mingyi must not be allowed to notice."
Lu Chongguang nodded while listening, once Yue made a move, Gu Mingyi would inevitably think of the Lu Mansion, and it seemed that the prestige of the Huaihe Lu Mansion was over.
But when he thought that the family business he had saved for so many years was about to be destroyed, he didn't feel too much regret and reluctance, but felt a lot more relaxed, as if he had finally gotten rid of the cage that had imprisoned him for many years.
"Rest assured, girl, Chongguang knows it."
"Third, please Boss Lu immediately pack up your belongings and prepare the carriage, and as soon as the boat arrives, I will immediately take Boss Chen and Miss Su, and Hu Er will personally escort you out of the Huai River, and never come back."
"How?! Boss Lu and I are gone, so who will help you do things? ”
Before Lu Chongguang could refute, Hu Er had already screamed.
"Isn't there still Xueyan and Qianning?"
"But they are all hiding outside the city, far away water can't quench their thirst, and just the two of you plus Qianning have to deal with the entire salt gang...
"My purpose is to blow up the ship and the food on it, not to pull out the Salt Gang, it is enough to have Bloodflame and Qianning Gang. On the contrary, it is already very difficult for Boss Lu to take care of Boss Chen alone, and there is also a Miss Su, who else can I entrust them to? ”
"But having said that, just a few of you have to deal with the entire Salt Gang...
"Okay, it's not that you don't know about Blood Flame's ability, I just need to find a way to get them into the city in advance."
"It's easy, when Boss Lu sends all the people in this mansion, I'll find a carriage to secretly transport them in, but I'm still not at ease...
"Okay, I must first ensure the safety of Boss Lu and them before I can do things with confidence, you will be obedient and obedient, and send Boss Lu and them to a safe place before coming back."
"Girl, one person is enough...
"No! This matter is not discussed, even if it is not for Boss Lu, I must ask Hu Er to personally send Miss Su to a safe place, otherwise how can I be worthy of my eldest brother. ”
Lu Chongguang and Hu Er saw that Yue was so resolute that they didn't give them any room for negotiation at all, so they reluctantly agreed.
Seeing that they no longer objected, Yue discussed a few more details with them, and couldn't wait to rush them back to rest.
But Hu Er went to sleep, but he still couldn't let go of this matter in a daze.
Yue's performance was really strange, he quickly arranged everything, and then poured them soothing soup with his own hands, and couldn't wait to drive them back to rest, as if he deliberately didn't leave them any room for thought and refutation.
It seemed that something crucial was deliberately hidden by her.
But this thought had been circling in Hu Er's heart for a day, and it wasn't until he personally drove the carriage to escort Lu Chongguang and the others out of Huaihe City that he suddenly understood.
Yue didn't deliberately hide anything, but she said the most critical issues from the beginning.
said it openly, but when she said it, she was too calm, and she was so evasive that she untruthfully exposed it, and it didn't attract the attention of Amber Er at all.
It wasn't until Koji put aside those conversations and put the whole thing together again that he realized that Yu had been misleading them from the beginning.
It wasn't the Salt Gang that she was going to fight against, but the person sitting in the Divine Martial Temple.
