Chapter 2 Out of Chu Realm in the West
In the palace of Chu State, Emperor Chu Han and the eldest princess Chu Yue were shocked when they looked at the Hou Yi Bow in the imperial study, they never thought that the Hou Yi Bow would be sent back to the forbidden place of the palace silently.
Chu Yue said, "Father, you see that there is a letter under Hou Yi's bow. 」
Chu Han unfolded the letter paper, and after reading the letter, his frowning brows gradually loosened.
Chu Yue took the letter and read it, and said happily: "It turned out that the old ancestor was quietly thinking about it and wanted to go to the mainland for a spin, and with his old man coming forward, Yu'er must be fine." 」
Chu Han said, "I'm afraid Yu'er won't be able to come back until a long time later, I don't know if she will be able to adapt to life outside. 」
Chu Yue said: "My sister is very naughty, usually I take her out, but now after leaving the imperial capital, she is like a fish in water, and my father doesn't have to worry about her. 」
Chu Han sighed a little and said, "There is an old man who comes forward, of course I don't have to worry about her, it's just ...... Your second brother's literary style has been away for the past few years, and now the little naughty has left, and only you are still by my side of my three favorite children. 」
Chu Yue said, "Brother and sister will return to my father's side sooner or later, you don't have to be sad. 」
Chu Han said: "Well, in fact, this is also good for the little naughty, she is too naughty, after this tempering, she will definitely mature a lot. He pondered for a while and then said, "Now there is no need to alarm Zhuge seniors, do everything possible to block the news of Chennan's troubles in the imperial capital, and never reveal it......
On the way, the little princess found that the Houyi bow on Chennan's body was missing, she couldn't help but keep asking, Chennan didn't answer anything, and finally she decided that Chennan had hidden the Houyi bow near the inn.
She was completely ignorant of what happened last night, and when she saw Chen Nan's absent-minded look, she sneered: "The scum must be scared when he sees that you look preoccupied and unrelenting, right?"
Chen Nan unceremoniously knocked on the little princess's smooth forehead and said, "I'm afraid of your size. 」
The little princess's eyes were full of tears, and she said hatefully, "Dead scum, sooner or later, you will fall into my hands again......
Chen Nan patted the little princess's fragrant shoulder, and said in a "serious and long-hearted" manner: "The wish is beautiful, the process is tortuous, but the result is impossible. Alas, in the season of fantasy, the girl's heart is always full of longing, poor child, wake up, that day is impossible. 」
The little princess hated and was angry, and said angrily, "You should be less proud of the stinky thief, and one day I will make you regret what you have done today. 」
Chen Nan smiled, "Little devil, don't be delusional, there will never be that day. 」
Along the way, the little princess and Chennan kept bickering, and at the same time took advantage of various opportunities to slip away, but none of them succeeded.
At the beginning, Chen Nan held the little princess hostage and hurried away, but the little princess was too beautiful and kept attracting the side eyes of passers-by, so in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, she finally changed to take a carriage. At the same time, he wiped the little princess's jade face dirty, which caused the little princess to scream and scold, and finally under his threats and intimidation, he finally got the matter done.
A few days later, Chennan's weakened body from casting the Sleepy Divine Finger finally recovered, and he let out a sigh of relief.
"There really wasn't anyone following along the way, it must have been the old monster who informed Chu Yue and the others after sending Hou Yi Gong back. The master of the imperial capital did not follow, and the ** old monster himself followed. Thinking of the horror of the old monster, he felt a chill in his heart, if the old man really had a plan against him, he didn't dare to imagine it......
Chen Nan held the little princess hostage all the way west unimpeded, and the emperor did not send anyone to pursue and stop him, and he did not even hear a word about his troubles in the imperial capital.
"Little devil, your emperor Lao Tzu and the princess sister abandoned you, not only did they not send someone to rescue you, but they also blocked the news of the imperial capital, it seems that they plan to give you to me. 」
The little princess leaned her back against the carriage, glanced at him, and said, "You stinky thief doesn't know how to learn, you can't even see such a simple thing, and you're embarrassed to talk nonsense here, hum!"
"In their eyes, the reputation of the Chu State is much more important than you, the princess, otherwise how could they only care about the news of the blockade of the imperial capital and ignore you?"
"Hmph, this princess will never explain you vile scoundrel. 」
"Do you want to be free or not, as long as you are willing to listen to me, I will give you freedom. 」
The little princess glanced at him and ignored him.
Along the way, although Chen Nan continued to implement "slave education", the stubborn little princess didn't give him a good look every time, causing his desire to turn the little princess into a good maid failed again and again.
Ten days later, Chen Nan and the two came to the city of Shantai, where there are two major roads, one leads to the west of the Chu State, and the other road goes straight to the south for hundreds of miles, and then turns westward, passing through the sin city in the mountains in the middle of the continent, to the western continent.
Looking at the lifelike white jade statue in the square of Tangtai City, Chen Nan was full of emotion, and it was not until 10,000 years later that he understood the reason why his skills did not advance but retreated, all thanks to the goddess in his heart in the past.
"Tai Xuan, the day I break through the void, I will definitely let you fall into the world......
The little princess struck at the right time on the side and said, "Daydreaming, you dare to blaspheme the fairy of Lantai like this, the fairy manifests his spirit, hurry up and send down the thunder to punish him." 」
Seeing Chen Nan raise her hand, the little princess quickly covered her forehead, her smooth forehead had been knocked several times in the past few days.
Chen Nan didn't knock her, pinched her pretty Qiong nose, and said, "If you talk nonsense again, I'll pull it into a pig's nose." 」
The little princess cried out bitterly, "Oh, let go of the stinking thief......
Chen Nan smiled, "It feels pretty good. 」
"It hurts...... Oh...... I can't spare you, dead scum. The little princess grabbed and kicked again, attracting a burst of sideways glances from everyone in the square, and Chen Nan hurriedly let go.
On the night of living in the city, the symptoms of the little princess's sleepy finger power finally attacked, every inch of her skin was bright red and full of bloodshots, and the blood in her body flowed at a hundred times the usual speed, almost boiling.
"Ah...... It's so uncomfortable, dead scum, hurry up and untie your broken fingering for me, I can't stand it......" Sweat soaked through the little princess's clothes, and she lay on the bed and kept rolling.
Chen Nan clicked on her acupoints a few times, so that she couldn't move, and then began to slap on her body continuously, and golden light was injected into her body, and it lasted for half an hour.
After a long time, the terrible symptoms caused by the sleepy finger gradually disappeared, and the little princess's body temperature slowly returned to normal.
"I'll fight with the scum!" After the little princess was able to move, she gritted her teeth and pounced on Chennan.
"I bite...... I caught ...... I kick ...... I couldn't ......bite it, couldn't catch it, couldn't kick it, and finally she hit Chennan with her head.
Chen Nan didn't dare to use his skills, for fear of accidentally hurting the little princess who was mad, so it took him a lot of effort to subdue her.
The little princess gasped and said, "I hate you to death, stinky thief, you actually use such vicious fingering on me, quickly dissolve it for me. 」
Chen Nan said: "I am the only one in this world who can resolve the Sleepy God Finger Force, it will attack every ten days and half a month, if I don't help you activate the essence and blood in advance, every time you have an attack, you will be as painful as today, so you have to be obedient, otherwise you know the consequences." 」
"Die, the devil will listen to you, a stinky thief. The little princess slammed a pillow at him, and then ran to wash up in a huff.
"The maid training program has gone bankrupt again. 」
The next day, Chen Nan and the others set foot on the road to the Sin City early in the morning, and the ancient city of Shantai gradually disappeared behind them.
This road runs through the east and west, and is the most important trade route on the mainland, and the daily flow of merchants is very large, so that this frontier road is not silent.
After eating and sleeping all the way, the two finally came to the gateway to the western part of the Chu State - Wangfeng City, which is tall and strong, and is a choke point on the road between the east and the west.
The name Wangfeng Castle has a long history, and it is said that the first Wangfeng Castle was built during the Great War between the East and the West, and the castle has changed several times in the past 10,000 years. The Windy City was built thousands of years ago, and has not changed its address until today, but has expanded several times on the original basis.
Although there have been few wars between the East and the West for thousands of years, the city was regarded as a military fortress by any dynasty, and it was heavily guarded. In peacetime, the soldiers in the city mainly inspected the merchants and inspected their goods.
Before Chen Nan entered Wangfeng City, he had already carried out a "city education" on the little princess, threatening her to cooperate well if she was interrogated by soldiers.
The little princess sneered at first, claiming that she would never play for him, but Chen Nan threatened her, threatening that if she was not "honest", she would be disfigured at the time of the incident, and let the trapped divine finger power she suffered attack early, and the little princess hatefully compromised.
Sure enough, when they entered the city, the two were strictly interrogated, but fortunately, Chen Nan was prepared in advance and made up a set of lies to easily fool them.
Of course, there was also a small episode in the whole process, although the little princess's face had been wiped dirty by Chennan, but its natural beauty was still difficult to hide, and as a result, a soldier was hairy, and she was almost mad when she was angry, Chennan hurriedly threw down a few gold coins, and pulled the angry little princess away in a hurry.
After coming to the city, the little princess said angrily: "It's too much, how can we have such soldiers in the Chu State, I will definitely order these soldiers to be killed when I return to the imperial capital." 」
Chen Nan smiled, "Then you will kill a quarter of the soldiers, and hundreds of thousands of people will fall to the ground. 」
"Nonsense, how can we have so many evil soldiers in the Chu State?"
"Don't you believe me? I'll take you around the soldiers. 」
The little princess hurriedly shook her head, if any more soldiers did anything to her, she would have to be angry.
Although Wangfeng City is located in the border area, the city is extremely prosperous, and there is one industry in the city that is particularly prosperous, and that is mercenaries.
Out of Wangfeng City is the vast mountains, on the road to the Western Continent there are not only all kinds of fierce birds and beasts, but also some strong bandits, so people who travel to and from this road will generally travel in groups, and even most people will spend money to hire some mercenaries to ensure the safety of life and property.
Chen Nan took the little princess to the mercenary union in the city, which was noisy and chaotic, and the walls were covered with all kinds of notices, all of which were large and small tasks, waiting for the mercenaries to claim them, as small as being a bodyguard for people, and as big as exploring some terrifying Jedi.
At present, the most expensive task is to catch the Qilin Divine Beast in the Falling Wind Mountain Range, and someone has already bid 500,000 gold coins. Although there are many people who have taken on this task, none of the mercenaries or mercenary organizations have been able to succeed so far, and most of them are gone, and few people have taken on this task anymore.
The employers who come here are generally people who are going to Sin City or the Western Continent, and if you want to deal with the bandits on the road, a few mercenaries are not enough, and it is often a group of people with the same destination to hire a mercenary group collectively.
A raunchy, bearded man walked towards Chennan with a big sword on his shoulder, and said, "Brother, do you want to find a mercenary as a bodyguard? It is definitely a wise choice to choose me, I am the one who is known as the 'King of Mercenaries', and I will keep you safe all the way." 」
Several mercenaries next to him said in unison, "Cut...... If you're the king of mercenaries, we're still the king of mercenaries. 」
Dahan said, "Oh, I don't say the word 'future', I am the future king of mercenaries. 」
Chen Nan had already seen that this big man was indeed a strong man, and his cultivation had reached the first-order level, but for some reason he was willing to be an ordinary mercenary.
"How's that brother, although I've only just joined this business, I'm definitely a miracle among mercenaries, and I'm sure you'll have peace of mind along the way. Although your little lady wipes her face dirty, but a discerning person knows at a glance that she is a stunning beauty, and if there is no person with high skills to protect you, it will be very dangerous to go out of Wangfeng City. 」
The little princess was extremely angry and said angrily: "What are you talking nonsense bearded, who is this scum little lady, talk nonsense again, beware of me cutting off your head." 」
Dahan said, "Oh...... What a wonderful little girl. Then he turned his head and said to Chen Nan, "Brother hasn't succeeded yet, so make a move when it's time to make a move, otherwise there won't be that store in this village!"
Chen Nan smiled and said, "At present, she is only my maid. 」
The little princess faced two bad men, and she was about to go crazy with anger, so she picked up the teapot and teacup on the table and threw them out. Chen Nan and Dahan quickly hid to the side, but the people nearby were not so lucky, some people were drenched by the hot tea, which provoked an angry scolding in the mercenary union, Chen Nan quickly pulled the little princess and escaped.
The big man with a beard on his face also followed, shouting at Chennan, "It is really dangerous for the two of you to go on the road, if you hire me, I will ensure that you have a safe journey." 」
Chennan stopped and said, "We're going to Sin City, I heard that there are a lot of bandits on the road, can you protect us alone?"
Dahan said, "To deal with those rabble, my one hand is enough. Besides, we are not on the road alone, a group of merchants have hired a mercenary group, I know their leader very well, and I will go on the road with them to ensure your safety. 」
Although Chen Nan was not afraid of bandits on the road, after taking the little princess, he was not so confident, and for the sake of safety, he decided to go on the road with those mercenaries.
"Okay, we'll come here for you tomorrow morning. With that, he walked out with the angry little princess.
The big man shouted from behind, "That's it. 」
When she returned to the inn, the little princess was full of displeasure, and said coldly, "Stinky thief, you are about to leave the border of Chu State, now you can help me dissolve the sleepy divine finger power." 」
"What's the hurry, we haven't reached Sin City yet. 」
"What? you forgot what my sister said, if you don't let me go when you leave the border of Chu, she will pass down a killing order and mobilize all forces to hunt you down, and you will die without a place to bury. 」
"Hmph, whether you let you go or not is a result, so it's better to keep you by your side as a maid. 」
Now the little princess was really frightened, and said in a trembling voice: "Scum, what you said won't be true, I have no grievances with you, although we had some ...... before Unpleasant things, but that's all ...... Misunderstanding, besides, it's been so long, you won't want to ...... now Get revenge on me?"
"Smack"
Chennan reached out and tapped her, and then put her on the bed.
"You little devil......
Although Chen Nan was a little afraid of the old monster who had never shown up, he still felt that it was safer to keep the little princess by his side. He had determined that although the old monster was terrifying, it could not unlock his sleepy finger, and he was secretly glad that the family had passed on the subtlety of the mystical skills.
On the second day, Chen Nan took the little princess to the mercenary union on time.
The little princess was full of anger, staring at Chen Nan with hatred, and at the same time there was some fear in her heart, she was about to leave the Chu country, she was really worried that she would lose her free body from now on.
When the big man saw the two of them, he hurriedly beckoned, and when he got closer, the little princess gave him a big roll of his eyes.
Da Hanhao didn't care, and laughed hehe.
The mercenary group responsible for protecting the caravan had a total of one hundred and three people, and except for the deputy leader, who was an old magician who had reached the first-order level, the rest were all martial artists.
The head of the regiment was a middle-aged man of about forty years old, who looked shrewd and capable, and he was followed by a behemoth, which was an earth dragon.
The earth dragon was about five zhang long, and its pitch-black scale armor was shining, and it looked quite fierce.
Dahan said, "The first-order magician, the first-order earth dragon knight, and me, the future king of mercenaries, who would dare to provoke this combination? 」
Chen Nan said: "How many gold coins do you need?"
Dahan said: "One hundred gold coins for one person, and a little discount for two people, just one hundred and eighty gold coins." 」
Chen Nan said: "You rob the money, ten gold coins is enough for an ordinary family to live for a month, you are just escorting us for a ride, and you actually offer such a sky-high price." 」
"Then one hundred and fifty gold coins, no. 」
"No, fifty. 」
"One hundred and twenty. 」
"No, eighty. 」
......
The final transaction price was one hundred gold coins, and Chen Nan paid him the money on the spot.
At this time, the head of the mercenary group came over and said, "Guan Hao, you have already received the mercenary money of eight people, why did you bring two more people now, although you have helped us, but with so many people following us, the brothers will have opinions." 」
Guan Hao said, "These are the last two people. 」
After the leader of the mercenary group left, Chen Nan said angrily, "The liar pays back the money. 」
Guan Hao said embarrassedly, "This ...... Although there are many people, I guarantee your safety.
The little princess said, "One scum, the other is a liar, you are not a good person. 」
Chen Nan glared at her, turned to Guan Hao and said, "It's okay if you don't return the money, but when you go out of the city, you promise to get this little girl out quietly." 」
Guan Hao looked suddenly enlightened and said, "It turns out that you are a human trafficker. 」
"Pay it back. 」
"Ah, I said the wrong thing. Hehe, this thing is easy to do, isn't it just to get out of the city, just point her acupoint and stuff her in the cargo pile. 」
At this time, the little princess's eyes were able to kill, and she said angrily, "You two bastards......
"Smack"
Chen Nan clicked on her acupoint, then turned to Guan Hao and said, "Are there any female dependents among the merchants?"
"Yes. 」
"Put her in the carriage of the lady, or it will be troublesome for such a delicate body to be crushed by the cargo. 」
There were more than 40 merchants, men, women, and children, and there were more than 20 wagons pulling goods, plus more than 100 mercenaries, and the team was quite spectacular.
The little princess was pointed, and rode in the same carriage with several female relatives of the merchants, she could not speak, her body could not move, she could only lie upright in the carriage.
Several female dependents praised her while observing her:
"This sick girl is so beautiful, I have never seen such a beautiful woman. 」
"yes, it's really beautiful!"
"Her face is dirty, she must be protecting herself, she is such a smart girl. 」
"I really want to pinch her smooth cheeks. 」
......
A few women finally really began to caress the little princess's jade face.
"If only I had such a beautiful daughter. 」
"yes, that's so cute. 」
......
The little princess's lungs were about to explode, and she couldn't help but gasp for breath.
"Oops, this girl's illness is getting worse. 」
"No, it's like a whirring sound. 」
......
The group soon reached the city gate, and after the merchants donated dozens of gold coins, the soldiers did not disturb the women.
It wasn't until she was far away from the city gate that the little princess was unlocked by Chennan, and as soon as she could move, she jumped out of the carriage as if she was running away, and then screamed loudly at the woods beside the road.
"Haha......" Tatsunan couldn't help but laugh.
"Dead scum, untie that broken fingering for me and let me go back. 」
"Dreaming. 」
Guan Hao came over and said, "Don't bark, little girl, if you bark again, you'll attract the male wolf." 」
"You...... You're not a good person either, bearded, aren't you greedy for money, you help me kill this scum, I'll give you 100,000 gold coins. 」
Guan Hao exclaimed: "Wow, 100,000 gold coins, a huge amount of wealth, but a gentleman loves money in a good way, and I can't accept such ill-gotten gains. 」
"You money addict, a liar, and you have the face to say that you have a good way to get it, as long as you help me kill him, I will add another 100,000 gold coins to you. 」
Chen Nan knocked on the little princess's head with a "bang", and said, "You dare to find someone to kill me in front of me, you treat me as air." 」
The little princess exhaled in pain, and at the same time said hatefully: "You stinky thief and scum who deserve a thousand cuts, sooner or later you will go to hell......
Chen Nan smiled, "The Buddha said, 'If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell.'" 」
"Then you go to Hell now. 」
"I'm not a Buddha yet. 」
"Shameless scum, stinky thief......"
The merchants and the people from the mercenary group looked sideways and looked at the two of them in surprise.
In the next few days, it became a habit for everyone to listen to the two arguing, and if they didn't hear the two quarrel for a long time, everyone would be surprised.
