Chapter 327: Entering the Game with Your Body
Using self-harm to lure out people hiding in the shadows is also one of Chen Kan's methods.
In the past few months, although Chen Kan has not paid much attention to the affairs of the White Lotus Sect, the secret layout has not fallen.
Chen Kan was sure that the killing of more than 20,000 members of the White Lotus Sect in a fraudulent death pit a few years ago had already greatly damaged the vitality of the White Lotus Sect.
And the reason why the true Buddha didn't make a move was probably because it was difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.
Since he didn't have rice, Chen Kan had no choice but to expose himself.
When the people of the Five Cities Terracotta Division secretly followed the people who were monitoring him, Chen Kan forcibly endured the pain in his heart and lifted his robe.
A bullet had already pierced through more than ten layers of silk that Chen Kan was wearing outside, deeply embedded between the three layers of soft armor.
Fortunately, the impact of the bullet was stopped by three layers of soft armor, and Chen Kan only scratched a little skin on his body.
Throwing the bullet aside, Chen Kan turned the dock and walked out of the city.
Since he is using himself as bait, the play that should be performed must be finished.
Two hours later, Chen Kan had already ridden to Donghe Town.
After several months of construction, Donghe Town has become a dusty construction site, and the wharf by the river is also being built in an orderly manner.
The main body of many buildings has gradually taken shape, such as dormitory buildings, teaching buildings, libraries and so on.
The villages not far from here were also evacuated in an orderly manner under the command of officials from the Ministry of Works.
The Five Cities Terracotta Division had already found out that they did not know about the White Lotus Sect, and the cultivation of the Bliss Pill was simply because the price given by the Old Crow Temple was too high.
Now that the seeds of the Bliss Pill have been confiscated by the Five Cities Terracotta Division, and the true identity of the Old Crow Temple has been exposed, Chen Kan has no idea of embarrassing these villagers.
To the north of the gentle slope is a busy construction site, outside the construction site is a turquoise jade belt, and to the south of the gentle slope are many villagers who are bidding farewell to their hometown where they have survived for many years.
Chen Kan only thought that this painting was very beautiful.
He turned around and asked Fang Xu: "Fang Xu, why do you say that there are always people in this world who have a peaceful life, but if there is nothing to do, jump up and down to find a sense of existence?" ”
Fang Xu was stunned for a moment, and then his brows furrowed.
It was a philosophical question that was beyond his knowledge.
After a while, Fang Xu hesitated a little and said, "Master Hou, could it be that they are idle?" ”
"Tsk!"
When Chen Kan heard this, he couldn't help but twitch his cheeks: "If you really ask for it, you are blind." ”
Fang Xu scratched his head honestly: "I don't know about the lowly position, and the lowly position is difficult to understand, how rare such a peaceful day is." ”
Chen Kan looked around at the beautiful scenery in front of him, as if he wanted to engrave this picture deeply in his heart.
After a while, Chen Kan squinted his eyes and said, "It may be that people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants." ”
The topic is too high-end, and people's hearts are too impetuous.
Chen Kan didn't say much, but hit the horse down the gentle slope.
After going around in a circle, he was still safe and sound, obviously, the White Lotus Sect didn't have the courage to do it here.
How can this be, Chen Kan went out of the city today to find death.
If they don't do it, then he won't go out of the city for nothing.
Fang Xu beat his horse and came to Chen Kan's side: "Master Hou, the White Lotus Sect hasn't done it yet, is it necessary for us to continue wasting time here just now?" ”
Chen Kan raised his horsewhip and whipped it hard on the horse's buttocks, and the horse began to gallop in pain.
Chen Kan's voice came from afar: "Of course it is necessary. ”
Fang Xu and Zhang San were startled, and hurriedly rode their horses to chase after them: "Master Hou, slow down, wait for us." ”
Thinking of the consequences of Chen Kan's loneliness, the foreheads of the two were instantly covered with cold sweat.
However, Chen Kan didn't remind them before he hit the horse and galloped wildly, just a few seconds apart, and the distance between them and Chen Kan was already more than 100 meters apart.
Chen Kan recalled the location of the old crow view presented by the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and the horse inserted into a small road and galloped away along the west.
He finally understood that the true Buddha's degree of caution was beyond his imagination, and if he didn't take it any longer, he was afraid that he would return in vain today.
Chen Kan was still in a hurry to stay away from the court, where did he have time to play a game of cat and mouse with him.
simply directly create an opportunity for him to die and live.
Yes, Chen Kan is gambling on his life again.
Passing through a reed, it is a broad-leaved forest, and there is an official road in the forest, which is the one that leads to the old crow's view.
Chen Kan ignored the anxious shouts of Fang Xu and Zhang San and other guards behind him, and handed over everything to the war horse under his crotch.
The treasure horse ridden by Chen Kan's crotch is naturally not comparable to the war horse under the crotch of Fang Xu and others, not to mention 800 miles a day, there is no problem with traveling 200 miles a day.
After a while, Fang Xu and Zhang San and the others were left far behind.
Of course, there must be Fang Xu and Zhang San's deliberate cooperation.
I don't know how far he traveled, Chen Kan only felt that the eyes of people on both sides of the official road were becoming scarcer and rarer, and they were replaced by large woods.
Just when Chen Kan was about to slow down his horse's speed, a team of unhurried convoys suddenly appeared in front of him.
The convoy was long, about 300 people up and down, and the largest carriage in the middle had no sign on it.
Chen Kanda followed behind the convoy, he had kept his distance from the convoy as much as possible, but he was still noticed by the team in front of him.
A rider in the convoy was waiting on the side of the road, and Chen Kan didn't care, and walked away on his own.
"This son, why is he following my master's convoy?"
The knight spoke, but after he saw Chen Kan clearly, a surprised expression suddenly appeared on his face.
Chen Kan frowned: "The official road was built by the imperial court, your master can go, and my son can naturally go, so why follow it." ”
After a while, Chen Kan also noticed the knight's expression: "Do you recognize me?" ”
The knight hesitated: "Do you remember that when you were waiting for the meeting on the first day, you invited our master to eat a bowl of rice noodles?" ”
Chen Kan was stunned for a moment, and then a meaningful smile appeared on his face: "Of course I remember." ”
"It's really you, Childe, the villain collided with Childe, please don't be surprised."
"It doesn't matter."
Chen Kan stopped with a smile and said, "I don't know if the little brother can show your master, just say that my son is tired from riding a horse, can you let my son get in the car and rest for a while for the sake of that bowl of rice noodles?" ”
When the knight heard this, he immediately arched his hand and said, "Please wait a while, the villain will go to show my master." ”
"Thank you, little brother."
Chen Kan returned the salute and watched him catch up with the convoy.
After a while, the knight turned back and arched his hand: "Childe, my lord invites you to get in the car for a while." ”
The words fell, and the convoy in front of it also stopped in time.
Chen Kan stepped forward, and the knights guarding the convoy took the initiative to make way for Chen Kan.
The curtain of the largest carriage was lifted, and an old man with a childish face came into Chen Kan's eyes.
The old man said loudly: "Young man, come alone?" ”
Chen Kan smiled and arched his hand: "I brought the guards, but the kid was playful and left the guards behind." ”
The old man smiled: "What a playful young man, speaking of which, we are also fated, Yuan Ri Jingshi has a two-sided fate, and I never thought that I would meet again in this wilderness today." ”
Chen Kan turned over and dismounted, and said with a smile: "Who said it wasn't." ”
"If the boy doesn't give up, please get in the car and talk about it."
The old man smiled and sent an invitation to Chen Kan, Chen Kan did not twist, handed the reins and whip in his hand to the knight on the side, stepped on the wheel and got into the carriage.
Seeing this, the old man commanded the leading knight, "Continue on your way." ”
After saying that, he lowered the curtain.
After Chen Kan got into the carriage, he turned it east and west in the carriage, and after a while, he turned out a lot of pastries and nuts, as well as a pot of rice wine.
The old man looked at Chen Kan with a smile, and did not say anything to dissuade him, until Chen Kan threw a chestnut into his mouth, and the old man said: "How could the young man know that the old man hid so many things in the carriage?" ”
Chen Kan didn't say anything, but just held a handful of nuts and handed it to the old man.
The old man was not annoyed, but just stopped gently: "People are old, their teeth are not good, and they can't eat such hard things." ”
Chen Kan understood, retracted his hand, and ate by himself.
"Hiccup~"
After eating half full, I rinsed my mouth with rice wine and couldn't help but burp.
Then he said to the old man: "The boy has a habit of hiding all kinds of food in the carriage, so he can see at a glance where there may be a hidden boy in the carriage.
As for why the old gentleman hid food in the car, instead of a hidden weapon or poison, it is not understandable to the boy. ”
"Hahahaha......"
The old man suddenly laughed, and pointed at Chen Kan with a smile: "What a funny little guy, if you eat my things, aren't you afraid that I will ask you for money?" ”
Chen Kan spread his hands: "Anyway, I've already eaten, the kid doesn't have the habit of bringing money, and besides, the kid didn't also invite the old gentleman to eat a bowl of rice noodles that day, let's be evened out at most." ”
As soon as Chen Kan said this, the old man's face suddenly showed a sad color, and he muttered: "Eating can be leveled, but this human life can't be leveled like this food." ”
Chen Kan said indifferently: "If you can't level it, then kill it all to repay the hatred in your heart, the old gentleman is so old, do you still want the kid to teach you this truth?" ”
The old man shook his head: "You kill me, I kill you, when will I get revenge." ”
"The old gentleman doesn't dare to agree with this, in the world, you should be happy and revengeful, have grievances and revenge, and have revenge, so that you can live up to the short decades of life."
At this moment, Chen Kan's youthful spirit seemed to break through the carriage and go straight to the Nine Heavens.
The old man bowed his head: "That's what I said, but it's hard to do it, when has the old man been as high-spirited as you, but now the old man is old, so old that no one can remember the old man's name, the old man, it's destined to be not a person of the same era as you." ”
Chen Kan's expression remained unchanged, and he said indifferently: "The world has changed, the vicissitudes of life, it is rare for the old gentleman's name to be able to be written on bamboo silk for eternity, and no matter how demanding it is, it will be a little greedy." ”
After saying a word, the old man suddenly fell silent.
Chen Kan didn't continue to talk more, just took the rice wine in his hand and poured it from time to time.
Before you know it, the convoy has come to an intersection.
The old man lifted the curtain and glanced at the fork in the road ahead, turned his head to Chen Kan and said, "Young man, let's not go the same way, you can get off here." ”
Chen Kan shook his head: "Old gentleman, Anzhi kid and Mr. are not on the same path? ”
The old man smiled: "How does the young man know that the old man doesn't know?" ”
Chen Kan put the wine jug in his hand back into the dark compartment, took the silk silk and wiped his hands, and said indifferently: "If the old gentleman is going to the old crow view, then I think the kid may be on the same road with you." ”
"Alas!"
The old man sat back in his place and couldn't help but sigh: "Young man, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, this is not a wise decision, not to mention that your teacher should have taught you the truth that a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall." ”
Chen Kanwan smiled and said slowly: "No matter how big the tiger of the old crow view is, how can it be bigger than your big tiger." ”
The old man still didn't have any expression, but said in a deep voice: "The old man is just an old-fashioned tiger, and the tiger of the old crow is the tiger that really wants people's lives." ”
After a moment of silence, Chen Kan asked, "In this way, there is a disagreement within the White Lotus Sect on the opinion of the kid, Lord True Buddha, or rather, Liu Dashuai?" ”
A look of surprise flashed in the old man's eyes, and then he looked at Chen Kan with interest: "When did you notice it, the old man thought that he didn't show any horses' feet." ”
"Jingshi is so big, do you think two people who have nothing to do with each other will meet twice in the same day, and they will intersect twice?"
"Oh, I forgot to mention just now, the kid still has a habit, and that is not to believe in any coincidences."
Chen Kan crossed Erlang's legs with a big grin, and he didn't have the slightest performance of falling into the wolf's den.
The old man glanced at Chen Kan appreciatively, and said with a smile: "You are indeed not simple, the old man has lived in Daming for so many years, and it is the first time that someone has recognized the identity of the old man, and other people, even if it is the old man's old man, think that the old man is dead." ”
Chen Kan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "It's a blessing to see you, the kid only hates to be born at the wrong time, and he was not born in the previous dynasty, and he fought side by side with your elder, His Royal Highness King Ming, and Emperor Taizu." ”
The old man was silent for a moment, and then asked lightly, "Do you know what the old man regrets the most in his life?" ”
Chen Kan was just about to shake his head, but he heard the old man ask himself: "It was the woman who took in two years ago, otherwise my White Lotus Sect's century-old foundation would not have withered to this point in one day."
It's ridiculous that the woman and the old man's son still think that they have laid a net in the old crow's view, just waiting for you to enter the palace. Now that you're here, the Crow View should be gone, right? ”
Chen Kan didn't answer his question, but asked rhetorically: "In this way, the True Buddha should be your son, the Holy Mother of the White Lotus should be your granddaughter, I killed your granddaughter, why are you still willing to let me go?" ”
The old man said: "The old man has already said that when will he repay his grievances." ”
"It's as simple as that?"
Chen Kan looked suspicious and looked at the old man fixedly.
"It's as simple as that, the old man is already old, and he doesn't have the courage to raise troops against the court again, you have the right to be the old man seeking a way to live for the old man's unsuccessful son."
The old man's tone was a little depressed, and the appearance of the old dragon bell was distressing.
