Chapter 141 Good Guys
Chapter 141 Good Guys
Wu Yan is missing.
In just a few breaths, when Fu Qingzhou passed through the ruined temple and flipped open the broken wall fragments that Wu Yan had smashed, he only saw an iron arrow that was broken into two pieces...
And a bloodstain on the ground.
But the killer who should have been seriously injured and dying was nowhere to be seen, and there was not even a trace of blood dragging on the ground, not even a drop of blood that might have left a clue as to the direction.
Even at this point, Wu Yan was still able to hide his whereabouts...
Fu Qingzhou shook his head.
There is still a lot for me to learn. There are so many hidden dragons and crouching tigers in this world.
"Fu, Brother Fu."
Yue Heng covered his chest and walked out coughing, his tone full of surprise: "It's dawn, we... have won, right?"
Fu Qingzhou sat down on the ground, looked up and smiled at him happily.
Yue Heng was overjoyed. He raised his hands high and cheered. Then he coughed violently because of the pain in his throat. He was laughing and coughing at the same time, with tears and snot all over his face.
The next thing... is to sleep.
Needless to say, Fu Qingzhou had been fighting for three consecutive nights and had not had much time to relax and rest, so he fell into a deep sleep immediately.
Yue Heng was a scholar, and after experiencing such a violent mental fluctuation last night, he also fell asleep quickly hugging the straw mat.
The spring breeze was cool, and the dilapidated temple with rotten walls was drafty from all sides, but the two men didn't care at all and slept soundly, snoring loudly.
They slept until noon, when they were surprised by the sound of horse hooves outside the temple.
Looking up, he saw that it was not someone riding a horse coming, but the horse that Fu Qingzhou had ridden before and was frightened away during the first night of the battle, which actually came back by itself!
Fu Qingzhou was overjoyed, after all he had spent money to buy it.
I don't know where this horse has been for two days, and it has gained some weight.
"Brother Yue."
He smiled at Yue Heng and said, "You have got the horse for the imperial examination."
Yue Heng was shocked and waved his hands repeatedly: "Brother Fu, you protected me for three days, I already owe you a lot, how can I still ask for your horse?"
"Okay, we are all brothers, no need to be so polite."
Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "I still have to go to Meifeng City. It's not far. You have to walk a long way, and my leg injury hasn't healed yet, so having a horse will be much more convenient."
Yue Heng was quite casual. After hearing what he said, he laughed and stopped refusing. He cupped his hands and said, "In that case, I thank you, Brother Fu."
He packed his suitcase and half climbed and half jumped onto the horse.
"Brother Fu, I will take my leave now."
He looked at Fu Qingzhou, his eyes actually misty: "Although we have only known each other for three days, I will never forget your kindness in protecting me at the cost of your life. Brother Fu, please do not forget our appointment at the Beijing Academy... You must come to see me!"
Fu Qingzhou laughed: "Okay, man, stop being so fussy."
After saying that, he patted the horse's butt hard and said, "Brother Yue, goodbye!"
The horse neighed and galloped away. Yue Heng looked back every few steps and waved his hands continuously, and finally disappeared into the forest.
After Fu Qingzhou let out a long breath, he suddenly raised his head and spoke loudly to the people around him.
"Senior Zuo? Are you there?"
His shouts echoed in the forest, and soon after, footsteps were heard nearby. Zuo Lamei walked slowly out of the forest with her hands behind her back, a playful smile on her face: "How did you know I was beside you?"
"Hehe." Fu Qingzhou laughed and said, "The horse came back by chance. I don't think it came back by itself. So I guess Senior Zuo finished Ding Shuanghe's business and came to see how I'm doing and brought the horse here."
Zuo Lamei shook her head: "Young man, you are very smart, but the world is dangerous. You should learn to hide your shortcomings and not show off your intelligence too much."
Fu Qingzhou was startled, then he became solemn and bowed: "Junior, please teach me."
"Okay, I don't like to talk about big principles."
Zuo Lamei said with a smile on her face: "You did a great job this time. Wu Yan of Xiyu Pavilion is the most troublesome assassin of the younger generation in the martial arts world. He has never failed in many years. I never thought that he would fail at your hands."
"The Nebula Chamber of Commerce will give you a very high evaluation."
Fu Qingzhou's mind moved: "Before coming here, the senior said that handling this matter well would be of great benefit to me. Could it be that he was referring to the Xingyun Chamber of Commerce?"
Zuo Lamei nodded: "Not bad."
Her eyes were far away, and her tone was like a deep pool: "If you want to deal with Fanyin Temple, you should also remember that behind it stands Jinchan Temple... and behind Jinchan Temple, there is an even bigger backer."
"You thought about borrowing the power of Ziqi Xianfeng Temple and Wulin League, but you never thought that even if you tear open the stinky and rotten veil of Fanyin Temple, you may not be able to hurt Jinchan Temple at all. Instead, it is easy to bring disaster to yourself."
"I know you have a strong background, but there are always people who are not afraid of the True Immortal Palace or the big sects. Being a hero in the martial arts world is not as simple as you think... You must make yourself valuable enough to gain a foothold in this world."
Fu Qingzhou listened very carefully.
This is the true talk of experience. Zuo Lamei herself is a person without a sect or backing... at least that's the case on the surface, but she was able to become a famous senior in the entire Shu area and even in the world. She has her own way of survival.
"Thank you, senior."
He bowed respectfully, then straightened his back, his eyes flickering, "Senior, do you mean that the value that Xingyun Chamber of Commerce has given me is enough for me to fight against the big backer behind Jinchan Temple?"
"Of course not enough."
Zuo Lamei smiled and said, "But everything has to have a beginning, right? I will show you the way, and you should learn what to do next."
Fu Qingzhou laughed: "Senior, what you said is absolutely right."
"Do you have anything else to ask?" Zuo Lamei stood still, like a teacher waiting for questions.
Fu Qingzhou was also very single, and asked directly: "I want to know, Senior, I have never met you before, why are you so devoted to teaching me?"
"Huh, you're so proud of yourself after hearing a few compliments?"
Zuo Lamei glared at him and said, "When did I ever open my heart to you?"
Fu Qingzhou: “…”
"But... you are indeed a good junior."
Zuo Lamei changed the subject and suddenly sighed: "In this world, there is no shortage of geniuses or strong people in the world."
"But there are always not many good people in this world."
She looked deeply into Fu Qingzhou's eyes and said in a deep voice, "You are not the smartest young man I have ever seen, nor the most talented young man, nor the most outstanding young man, but you are one of the few truly good people."
"There have been people like you before, but most of them have become dry bones in the grave. I don't want to hear about your death in a few months or years."
"Fu Qingzhou... I hope you can do something different in this world."
