Abandoning literature for martial arts, starting by unleashing the beauty's bow.

Wang Tiezhu said in a low voice, "Sir, the soldier guarding the camp gate said, 'Someone is looking for you at the camp gate.'"

"Looking for me?"

Lu Fengnian looked puzzled.

He didn't know anyone in Shiyang Pass.

If Yu Sihai wanted to find him, he would have other channels; he wouldn't go through the main entrance.

Wang Tiezhu added, "It was a woman."

"A woman?"

Lu Fengnian was even more puzzled.

After a moment's hesitation, he asked in a low voice, "What does it look like?"

Wang Tiezhu shook his head. "I don't know either. The soldiers guarding the camp gate only told me that it was a woman."

After thinking for a moment, he added, "Should I go take a look?"

Lu Fengnian glanced at his cane. "Once you've looked at it and come back, I can wash up and go to sleep."

Wang Tiezhu scratched his head awkwardly, "I'll find someone else."

After saying that, he quickly turned around and went out.

A moment later, a guard strode in.

Lu Feng asked in a low voice, "Who are they?"

The guard replied in a deep voice, "Sir, the woman looking for you is named Du Wanting."

"Du Wanting?"

Lu Fengnian was completely baffled; he had never heard of this name before.

The guard continued, "I asked her what she wanted, but she wouldn't say. She only said she wanted to see the lord."

Lu Fengnian asked, "What does she look like?"

The guard quickly responded, "He looks to be in his thirties, and has a rather decent appearance..."

After hearing the guard's description, Lu Fengnian finally knew who the woman looking for him was.

It turned out to be the female owner of the tofu pudding shop that I ran into on the street a while ago.

"What does she want from me?"

Lu Fengnian was very puzzled.

After a moment's thought, he ordered his personal guard, "Go and go again, and ask her what exactly happened."

Tell her that I will only see her if she tells me what it's about.

The guards obeyed and quickly went out.

Soon, he returned and reported: "Sir, Du Wanting says her husband has been imprisoned in Shiyangguan Prison and she would like to ask you to rescue him."

Lu Fengnian frowned. "Did you ask why her husband was imprisoned?"

The bodyguard responded, "Her husband sells tofu pudding, and he ate her so much that she ended up in the hospital."

Lu Fengnian waved his hand. "You can leave now."

The guard hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Sir, what should we do with this woman?"

Lu Fengnian replied, "Ignore her. If she doesn't wait for me for a long time, she'll leave on her own."

The guard gave an "oh" and slowly withdrew.

……

At noon, Wang Tiezhu came over again and told Lu Fengnian that Du Wanling was still guarding the gate of the Zhenxi Army camp and had not left.

Lu Fengnian nodded without responding.

He only met Du Wanting and her husband once, and they didn't have any real relationship.

That day on the street, he didn't get to eat any tofu pudding and even lost a few taels of silver. He felt he had done everything he could.

After dinner, Wang Tiezhu came over again and said that Du Wanting was still guarding the door.

Lu Fengnian glanced at Wang Tiezhu and said, "Can't you worry about something else? Why are you always staring at Du Wanting?"

It's getting dark soon, she'll definitely leave.

After dinner, Lu Fengnian began practicing archery and refining his Broken Army Saber Technique.

At the same time, I have been paying close attention to changes in my body.

He clearly saw that the strange piece of animal hide enter his body.

After observing for a whole day, there were no adverse reactions in my body.

The animal hide seemed to have vanished suddenly, as if it had never existed.

However, Lu Fengnian did not relax.

The animal hide was so bizarre that it almost sucked him dry.

This is a dangerous individual; we must not be careless in the slightest.

……

After shooting more than a thousand arrows, it was almost midnight.

Because as long as the arrow travels ten zhang (approximately 33 meters), the skill level is recorded once.

With his current physique, if he keeps shooting and Wang Tiezhu prepares arrows for him, he can shoot a thousand times in about an hour and a half.

After practicing the Breaking Army Saber Technique several more times, Lu Fengnian was drenched in sweat and prepared to take a shower and then catch up on some sleep.

Suddenly, he remembered something and asked Wang Tiezhu, "Send someone to the camp gate to check if Du Wanting is still there?"

Wang Tiezhu replied, "Sir, this woman has been waiting at the door for a whole day. She must have no other choice but to do this."

"If you want to help her, why make her wait so long?"

Lu Fengnian glanced at him sideways. "When did I say I was going to help her?"

Wang Tiezhu blinked. "If you're not going to help her, why send someone to look at it?"

Lu Feng sighed, "The nights are not peaceful inside Shiyang Pass. After all, she is a woman, and it is already late. If she has not left yet, we should have someone send her back."

……

Soon, the guards who went to scout at the camp gate returned.

Lu Fengnian was informed that Du Wanting left around 7 PM.

Wang Tiezhu followed behind Lu Fengnian, hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke, "Sir, I know you are not a heartless person."

This woman must have encountered something extremely difficult to stay at the camp gate for a whole day.

"Sir, are you really not going to help her?"

Lu Fengnian slightly raised his eyelids and stared directly at Wang Tiezhu. "I'm asking you, am I considered a high-ranking officer in the Zhenxi Army, a centurion?"

Wang Tiezhu hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "A centurion is an official, but not a high-ranking one. In the Zhenxi Army, he would only be a low-ranking military officer."

Lu Fengnian added, "In the Zhenxi Army, I was just a low-ranking military officer. If I were placed in Shiyang Pass, I would be a nobody."

How can I have the spare energy to help others?

Besides, I only met that woman once; it was just a chance encounter.

There is no obligation or responsibility on my part to help her.

Wang Tiezhu opened his mouth, about to speak.

Lu Fengnian waved his hand, "Wang Tiezhu, don't be fooled by my current position as a centurion. If a real danger comes, I won't even be able to protect myself."

What we need to do now is to quickly improve our abilities and status, and stop being so sentimental and causing trouble for ourselves.

One wrong move, and you might lose your life.

Wang Tiezhu fell silent and stopped speaking.

……

The following day, in the morning.

After practicing his archery and swordsmanship, Lu Fengnian thought for a moment, then left the camp and went to the main gate of the Zhenxi Army camp.

Seeing that Du Wanting did not reappear, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.

What he said to Wang Tiezhu yesterday was not an exaggeration.

During this period, he seemed to be rising steadily in rank and enjoying great success.

But in reality, he is in the eye of the storm.

One wrong step could lead to utter destruction and irreversible ruin.

At this moment, who has the mind to care about other people's business?

Although he had a suspicion that Du Wanting's husband's accident was likely related to the Black Wind Army.

If that's the case, then this matter is somewhat related to him.

Why is that? Lu Fengnian was somewhat uneasy and hesitant about Du Wanting's matter.

However, since Du Wanting wasn't so insistent, he stopped thinking about it.
