Chapter 612: Back to the Old Place
Qu whispered.
Chen An was in a trance when he heard this name, although he was prepared when he came, he couldn't help but show a complicated look.
That was his only relative in this world, the only survivor who survived after the Chen Qu family was lost to Ren Zhongxu's hands.
Once upon a time, Chen An relied on her as the sustenance of his soul, and even if he dreamed back at midnight, he cared about her many times.
When I heard her news suddenly, my heart was agitated for a while, and it was difficult to control myself at all. After a long pause, he said: "This, this girl is actually married, yes, it's been 20 years, or maybe she even has a child......"
Speaking of this, Chen An paused again, and suddenly remembered the girl he met on the road, she called herself Bu Siqing, and from some things that just happened, it was shown that she should be the daughter of Bu Yunqing, in other words, she was probably the daughter of the whisper.
Somehow, Chen An's heartstrings trembled, and he couldn't help but want to go back and see her again, so he turned his head to Qiu Yuan and said, "I still have some things to deal with, you go back first to collect the relevant materials of Xu Qian's death back then, and wait for me to come back to check." ”
Qiu Yuan was a little stunned by Chen An's sudden change, and wanted to persuade him, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know how to speak, so he finally had to say: "Obey the orders of the master." ”
After arranging Qiu Yuan, Chen An's heart was like an arrow, and he disappeared in place as soon as his footsteps turned, and his reappearance was already dozens of zhang away, so he quickly disappeared in front of Qiu Yuan's eyes at a speed of dozens of zhang in one step, and rushed to the inn where he had just come.
Originally, Chen An didn't take Wu Yanting and the others to heart, but after seeing Qiu Yuan and receiving his invitation, he directly left them behind, including Bu Siqing, even if she was the holder of one of the accessories of the Tianji Seal Letter.
The Heavenly Seal Letter can sense each other, even if the little girl loses it, he can find it back, anyway, he is not in a hurry to make the two one.
It's just that now that he knows the identity of the little girl, he can't help but be in a hurry.
Although the wolf-like Holy Court guards outside were trapped by him, who knows if the person behind the curtain will send someone again. His method is not to create the effect of space folding like a ghost, but to directly act on people's thinking space, making them disoriented, and being able to trap these people does not mean that they can also trap those who come after them.
If this makes the little girl have a mistake, how can he face the whispering.
Fortunately, with the strength of the Sect Master, he hurried extremely fast with all his strength, and once and again, except for wasting some time with Qiu Yuan, not an hour had passed before and after.
Therefore, when Chen An rushed back, there was no change in the inn, and there was a lot of sleeping inside, which made him quietly relieved.
Looking out of the inn again, the Holy Court guards who had originally intended to break in also seemed to sense that something was wrong and had retreated one after another. But instead of giving up, he is planning to make a comeback again. As soon as Chen An entered the inn, they reappeared with crossbows soaked in fire oil.
didn't care about Wu Yanting and them, Chen An came directly to the outside of Bu Siqing's room and knocked on the door.
"Who?"
Bu Siqing's vigilant voice came from inside, obviously not asleep, which made Chen An very relieved, and said, "It's me, open the door." ”
"Dart Master?" Bu Siqing inside heard Chen An's voice, but did not open the door according to his words, but vigilantly probed: "What's the matter with coming to me so late?"
"The gang is coming after us during the day, let's go. ”
didn't directly wipe out all the people outside, because he still didn't know the identities of these people very clearly, and there were too many relatives and friends in the Holy Court, and if he was not careful, he would probably accidentally hurt his own people.
Of course, the most important point is that these people are not a threat to him at all, except for being extremely bored, who will go to crush ants?
"Hmm?" Bu Siqing, who was quietly leaning against the door behind the door, wanted to say something more, but suddenly heard a "doo", followed by a "click......click" sound like raindrops.
Countless arrows pierced into her room with starry firelight, and then the sky-high flames rose in an instant, even if she grew up in the Holy Court since she was a child, how could she have ever seen such a scene, she was stunned for a moment and then opened the door with a scream and rushed out, crashing into Chen An's arms.
Chen An hugged her in a hurry, dodged two strong and fierce forces under his feet, passed through the room, shot arrows into the corridor, turned around and retreated into the inn.
He didn't leave there, but stopped in the lobby of the inn.
Bu Siqing, who had just calmed down at this time, turned red, and pushed Chen An away.
In Chen An's eyes, she is just a child, but in her eyes, Chen An is a young man who is similar to her age, and she is held in her arms by the other party so much, how can she not be ashamed when she has always been proud.
It's just that before she could attack, the flames in the inn had risen rapidly, and the Taimen who were originally asleep were awakened one after another, but even in the face of this situation of being raided, the team suppressed by the innate grandmaster still did not show panic, and looked for a place to avoid in an orderly manner, and at the same time looked for an opportunity to counterattack.
A black halberd that seemed to pierce the heavens and the earth slashed down vertically, splitting the formation of the Holy Court Guards outside in two. Another majestic mountain shadow suppressed down, splashing smoke and dust in the sky......
I have to say that the frontal combat power of the Innate Grandmaster may not be as good as that of the Celestial Warriors, but he is still very good at bullying ordinary people against the military formation.
The Holy Court Guard in front of him came out to catch a little girl, obviously there was no power of the same level to contain the first-grade grandmaster, so he was defeated as if he was devastated, leaving a few corpses on the ground, and the rest of the people fled frantically.
For the Holy Court, Wu Yanting and the others obviously did not have the intention of killing everything, and walked in front of Chen An in a ruined rubble, with the original intention of using the other party as a gun, but who knew that they had not been able to achieve this goal, but were first used as a gun by the other party.
But Wu Yanting, who knew Chen An's identity, didn't dare to get angry at him, but just said in a muffled voice: "Mr. Chen, you can't sleep this time, why don't we rush overnight, if it's faster, we should be able to rush to the capital before dawn." ”
Chen An nodded, and said a little indifferently: "Yes." ”
In fact, he is also a little bit of a arrow.
When he first came here, he was afraid that he would leave for so long, no one would know him, and he would not change his name or appearance, so he went all the way to the capital in such a big way.
But when Yu Hongna learned about the changes in the Holy Court over the years, he was a little hesitant, either afraid of his hometown, or afraid of the changes in the past twenty years, afraid of the loneliness and desolation of the person beyond his face, and he could drag it in a carriage along the way.
And in Taiyimen, after he got the information that the ghost mother might be Lu Wen, he thought about it a lot. Sometimes I was afraid that if I appeared with my true identity, I would not scare away those who wanted to hide from me, so I subconsciously covered it up, such as asking Yu Hong and others to enter Beijing in advance to arrange accommodation, such as watching Wuyanting all the way here.
After that, I accidentally met Qiu Yuan, and learned the whispering news from him, and the whole person couldn't control himself, just thinking about returning to the capital to meet his only relative in the world.
If it weren't for Bu Siqing's ties, he might have flown directly to the capital by now.
Fortunately, he has not forgotten his original intention, if he wants to see those old people again, and if he wants to investigate the cause of Xu Qian's death, he can't easily break the current balanced pattern, that is to say, he can't easily stand in front of the stage, which is likely to cause panic from all sides.
This is not that he put gold on his face, from the reactions of Zhang Hatshui, Wu Yanting and others, it can be seen that although he has been away for twenty years, because of the existence of ghost disciples, his influence has not decreased at all, but he has been completely mythologized, and the panic he can cause is even more than at the beginning.
Therefore, the current delicate balance should not be broken.
Of course, he didn't deliberately maintain this, and when his goal was mostly achieved, he didn't mind resetting the current pattern himself. But now he just wants to be a spectator.
"Do you need a carriage?"
Chen An thought about it and turned to Bu Siqing.
The person concerned in this question didn't feel anything, but Wu Yanting was nervous, although the capital is not far from here, if you use a carriage, at least the speed will be slower by more than half, that is to say, it may take more than ten hours, and it may not be possible to arrive at this time tomorrow.
Wu Yanting, who was unbearable on the way, didn't want to be delayed on the road for so long, so it was better to arrive early and disperse early.
In fact, Chen An is not a good person, but Wu Yanting just feels that the psychological pressure is not ordinary, and no one likes to get along with a person who can pinch him to death at any time.
Wu Yanting believed that the other party did have the ability to save his life in the hands of the ghost mother, but what danger could he have just as a spectator. So even if it was the eldest brother's order, he didn't plan to obey it, and planned to part ways as soon as he arrived in the capital.
And at this time, he didn't want to make any more extraneous branches.
Fortunately, Bu Siqing didn't understand Chen An's kindness at all, and said disdainfully: "You don't look down on people, I grew up on horseback since I was a child, but I am not so pampered." ”
Chen An didn't care, maybe it was a relative of the next generation, the girl's arrogant appearance was very cute in his eyes, so he said with a little doting: "Okay, if you don't sit, you won't sit, then we can set off." ”
If his expression is seen by Donglai's ministers, his chin can fall to the ground, because it is really difficult to see his emperor doing this to a person, even a few princes and princesses, and he can't let him look sideways slightly.
It's just that Bu Siqing didn't notice this, she felt that she was being trivialized, she only felt that this person was extremely annoying, if she didn't have to rely on the other party now, she would be far away from him.
As he spoke, the disciples of the Taiyi Sect had already brought the horses, and those Holy Court guards were all attacking from the front, but the horses tied to the backyard were not harmed.
And because of the actions of the Holy Guard, the shopkeeper had long since lost sight of where to hide, although Wu Yanting and the others did not want to escape the order, but they were also unwilling to do the pedantic thing of deliberately waiting here, so they directly got on the horse and left with Chen An.
Along the way, Chen An took a lot of care of Bu Siqing, but this could not make the latter give a smile, but made Bu Siqing, who thought he had insight into the other party's impure purpose, very vigilant.
Chen An didn't care about this, but was quite pleased, girls, they should be a little vigilant.
This place is indeed very close to the capital, and at dawn, a huge city came into front of everyone's eyes like a dormant beast, which amazed the disciples of the Taiyi Sect who had never seen the world, and made Bu Siqing, who looked at them so unbearable, disdainful. Only Chen An looked at the familiar and unfamiliar black city wall and was silent, and there were thousands of emotions in his heart that were difficult to describe.
