Chapter 1137 The Protagonist of the Story (Part )
An invisible wave swept away the white fog over Xishuo City.

In the fake Xishuo City, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then continued with their work and life.

In the courtyard of Wu Yan's house, the handsome man walked out with his hands behind his back, and looked up solemnly.

"How could this be so..."

"Is this the Heavenly Dao fighting for power? What on earth did Fu Qingzhou do..."

Just as he was thinking, a call suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Master Fu?"

The handsome man lowered his head and saw Qiu Chan and Tang Jiao looking at him curiously.

He restrained his emotions and smiled: "What's wrong?"

"Why aren't you chatting with Miss Ning and Mr. Wu in there?" Qiu Chan asked with a blink.

"Haha, come out and get some fresh air."

The handsome man smiled and said, "Besides, although I am the protagonist of that book, I have never read it. I cannot interrupt them in their conversation."

Tang Jiao waved her hand: "Then why don't you chat with us? Mr. Fu is not from Xishuo City, right?"

"...Indeed not."

The handsome man smiled.

He had said before that, as an old friend of Wu Yan, he had no idea that Wu Yan had written him into the protagonist of the book. But now Wu Yan's books were almost sold out in the city. If he had always lived in Xishuo City, it would be a bit false to say that he didn't know.

He has the same name as the protagonist in a popular best-selling book. Even if he doesn't know it himself, there must be someone around him who knows and told him.

As he spoke, he walked into the small courtyard and sat down at the stone table where Qiu Chan and Tang Jiao were sitting. He looked up at the faint white mist in the sky and said softly, "I just came here not long ago."

"What about Master Fu?"

Tang Jiao asked with bright eyes: "What does it look like outside the city?"

The handsome man suddenly turned his head and stared at Tang Jiao with fiery eyes.

Tang Jiao was startled by him and shrank back. Qiu Chan immediately hugged her shoulders and glared at the handsome man: "Why are you glaring at her? She is just curious about the outside of the city!"

"Hehe... There's nothing good outside the city."

The handsome man quickly calmed down and smiled: "Xishuo City is the best place in the world."

"Is that so..." Qiu Chan looked at him suspiciously: "Then tell me what it's like outside the city. It should be okay, right?"

"..."

The handsome man was silent.

He regretted it again, regretting forcing himself to intervene between these people... He had not yet tuned everyone's thinking to perfection, and "outside the city" was still a concept that could not be touched at this time, which could easily make them feel more uncomfortable.

But soon, he changed his mind...

Following this line, can we find that weird "anchor point"?
So he raised his head and smiled again: "How about this, I will take you to have a look."

"Oh?!"

Qiu Chan and Tang Jiao were really shocked this time!
"Can you take us to have a look?" Tang Jiao immediately turned from surprise to joy!
Qiu Chan was still a little worried: "Isn't it bad? The young lady is still here..."

"It's okay, I'll tell him later." The handsome man stood up with a smile.

As he pushed the door and walked into the house, Tang Jiao and Qiu Chan immediately exchanged shocked glances.

"Do you really want to go with him?" Tang Jiao lowered her voice and asked nervously.

Qiu Chan bit her lip and said, "Isn't this great? He must have a purpose for approaching us. Who knows, this may help us find out about him!"

"But……"

Tang Jiao was still nervous: "Even if he really has some sinister purpose, there's nothing we can do with just the two of us, right?"

"Like this!" Qiu Chan leaned close to her ear and whispered a few words.

Tang Jiao was shocked: "Will this work?"

"Hurry up!" Qiu Chan pushed her hard. When the handsome man walked out of the house, Qiu Chan was the only one sitting there in the yard. She put her hands on her knees, blinked her eyes, and looked very well-behaved.

"what?"

The handsome man asked, "Where's the other girl?"

As he asked the question, his thoughts drifted with the white fog that filled the city, and he tracked down Tang Jiao - she was holding up her skirt and running hard on the street.

"Oh, we are leaving the city after all..." Qiu Chan said with a smile: "Although you have told the young lady about this matter, we still have to inform the mansion... It's okay, let's go first, she will be here soon!"

The handsome man didn't point it out, and smiled and said, "Okay."

He knew that Tang Jiao must have gone to "find help."

But who could she turn to?
In other words, whoever she goes to find will help him find out... where the anchor point is.

"Then let's go."

He whispered to Qiu Chan, "You can walk slower so that the other girl can catch up."

……

Tang Jiao stopped panting.

Qiu Chan asked her to report the news and find people for help, and it would be best if everyone in the Hong Mansion could be called over - after all, the Hong Mansion is hosting a banquet today, and if everyone could be called over, no matter how powerful this Mr. Fu is, he will definitely be surrounded and killed!

But as she ran, she felt something was wrong.

I am just a little maid. What reason do I have to call everyone in the mansion?

Qiu Chan, that damned girl, said "Just say Miss Ning was kidnapped" and she ran out in a hurry, but if she really had to use this excuse to lie and call for help, she was a little afraid...

Just as she was holding her head in worry, a kind voice suddenly came from her side: "Little girl, what's wrong with you?"

Tang Jiao turned her head and saw an old lady sweeping the floor.

This auntie looked very friendly. Although she looked tired and exhausted, when she glanced at her, Tang Jiao inexplicably felt a sense of intimacy and familiarity.

Jingming felt the same way.

She had been sweeping the streets all day and was so tired that she just wanted to go back and have a good rest. But when she saw the little maid in front of her, she felt pity for her and wanted to help her.

"I……"

Tang Jiao said subconsciously: "We met a strange man, and he seems strange... We want to find someone to help us, but I don't know if anyone is willing to help us..."

She didn't know why she had to say all this to an old lady who was sweeping the floor.

Jingming was stunned.

I am just a cleaning lady...

But for some reason, she decided to help the little girl in front of her.

"Whose daughter are you?" she asked.

Tang Jiao lowered her head: "I am a maid in the Hong Mansion..."

"Leave it to me then." Jingming smiled kindly and said, "Where is that weirdo?"

"He, he took my sisters and went out of the city." Tang Jiao replied.

Jingming was startled: "Outside the city...outside the city, what does it look like?"

Benedict!
In the butcher shop not far away, a boning knife chopped heavily into the chopping board.

"Outside the city?" Bai He, who was wearing a greasy apron, frowned. "Is there anyone who can go outside the city? I have wanted to go outside the city for a long time, why doesn't anyone take me there? I want to go too!"

Tang Jiao turned her head in astonishment.

I was talking to the cleaning lady, and the butcher...what was he so excited about?
"Never mind, little girl, go find your sister."

Jingming smiled and pushed Tang Jiao: "Someone will come to help you soon."
