Chapter 101: The world is full of troubles (1)

The street below the inn appeared for a moment and the pedestrians and vendors raised their heads and looked at the place where the shouts were heard with a hint of astonishment. They saw Chen Changsheng, and then heard his next words.

"I am Chen Changsheng. Su Li is in the room behind me. Whether you want to kill him or save him, everyone who wants to come will come quickly."

Just like the previous sentence, this sentence also floats in the bright spring Xunyang City, drifting very fast and far. I believe that you will soon leave the city and go all over the mainland. Countless eyes fell on the window of the inn and on Chen Changsheng's face. The streets of Xunyang City continued to be quiet for a while, and then were broken by a noisy sound, and a chaos of war came.

There was the sound of porcelain bowls falling on the ground and shattering into eighteen pieces, the sound of windows being closed almost roughly, the shouts of crying, the childish child full of doubts, the sound of parents beating and scolding, the sound of horse hooves running towards the distance, and even the heavy trembling sound of the city gate closing was faintly heard in the distance.

In just a moment, all the pedestrians and vendors on the streets of Xunyang City disappeared, and the long street became empty, leaving only waste paper with oil-packed cakes floating on the street, and a few wisps of smoke and dust floating from the city gates in the distance. Xunyang City seemed to have become an empty city in an instant - not all empty cities are tricks, sometimes empty cities mean that this is a dead city, or it will then become a dead city.

Chen Changsheng stood by the window, looking at the silent street, listening to the voices gradually fading away, and looking at the eyes that were peering timidly in the cracks of the closed doors, he was speechless. He couldn't understand why he just called Su Li here, causing such a big noise? He vaguely felt that he seemed to have done something wrong, or that he had underestimated this matter.

In the deep spring, the wind passing through the streets and alleys should be slightly warm, but at this time the stove next to the road was out and there was no people. The wind became a little colder. Chen Changsheng subconsciously closed the window again. Looking back, he saw Su Li sitting on the chair, feeling helpless and mocking, "Are you scared?"

Chen Changsheng's voice was a little nervous and said, "It's just a gamble."

Su Li held the yellow paper umbrella in his left hand, and gently tapped the armrest of the chair with his right hand, looking into his eyes and said, "Then I can tell you now that you... lost the bet."

Su Li is here, these four words spread throughout Xunyang City at an unimaginable speed. Even the fastest Red Eagle or Red Geese in the Great Zhou army could not intercept the news. Xunyang City was dead silent, but behind the silence was real chaos. I don’t know how many ordinary people’s dishes were affected, and I don’t know how many people sprained their ankles.

The most tense place in the atmosphere is of course the inn where Su Li and Chen Changsheng are. This inn is also the source of this chaos. The guests who eat at the dining room run away as fast as possible. Many passengers staying in the inn didn't even care about taking their luggage, so they disappeared with the flow of people. Even the inn owners and waiters had sneaked away.

At this time, the inn was silent, with upside down tables and chairs everywhere, looking in disarray. Only at the counter against the wall, there was a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a man who had a job.

The news had already spread, and people naturally came one after another. What made Chen Changsheng a little happy was that the first person to come was the people from the National Education.

The Bishop of Xunyang City is the northernmost bishop of the state religion in the mainland. He has a very high position and a very powerful authority. The current Bishop of Xunyang City is called Hua Jiefu, and he is a confidant of the Pope. Therefore, his status in Xunyang City and even in the entire Tianliang County is extremely respected. Whether it is Xunyang City Lord or the royal palace, he rarely needs to visit him in person, but today he must come to this inn in person, and his attitude shows that the entire Xunyang City is a little uncomfortable.

Hua Jiefu did not let the dozens of priests accompanying him enter the inn. He stood in front of the stone steps and sorted out the red clothes. Then he walked in alone, acting very low-key and even a little humble. If Su Li was not seriously injured, his life would not last long, so this respect would naturally be given to him, but now, this respect is for Chen Changsheng.

Chen Changsheng is now the dean of the National Education College. In the words of Archbishop Meilisha, within the National Education Church, except for the Pope, he does not need to salute anyone. On the contrary, others should salute him. Just a cardinal with a noble status salutes respectfully, but he still makes him very uncomfortable and subconsciously leans his head.

Hua Jiefu straightened his body, and did not even look at the closed door next to him, and said to Chen Changsheng: "We just learned that you are still alive, but we cannot confirm it. It is a joy to see you today. I believe that after this news reaches Kyoto, the Pope will be very happy. Countless people will look forward to your return in Kyoto."

He didn't say it all, but he was already straightforward. The Bishop asked Chen Changsheng to leave Xunyang City. If Chen Changsheng agreed, the Xunyang City Sect Hall would undoubtedly send powerful guards, and even Hua Jiefu would escort him personally.

Chen Changsheng looked at the closed door, and after a moment of silence, he said, "You know, I'm in a little trouble now."

"I admit that this gentleman is indeed a great trouble, and it may even be the biggest trouble in hundreds of years." Hua Jiefu looked at the door and said, "But this is not your trouble, nor is it the trouble of the state education. If you insist on staying in this inn, the trouble will become bigger and bigger, until it is so big that I can't solve it."

Chen Changsheng asked: "When will those... troubles appear?"

Hua Jiefu said: "Soon, and news came from Kyoto that someone in Huaiyuan might have come to the Northland. He cannot be sure of his identity for the time being, but what is certain is that it is a big trouble."

Chen Changsheng was silent for a while and asked, "Can I take Mr. Su back to Kyoto with me?"

Hua Jiefu didn't need to think and said directly: "Li Gong has never said it."

Chen Changsheng was silent again and understood what he meant - it had been a while since he met the two assassins and Xue He. Li Gong must have known about Su Li and him, but he only asked his subordinates' sect palace to escort Chen Changsheng back to Beijing, and he did not mention Su Li at all, which already represents Li Gong's attitude.

"I might have to wait in the inn for a while."

"We will certainly protect your safety, but we have no way to protect this gentleman just because you want to protect this gentleman in the house. You should understand that this is unfair."

"Yes."

Chen Changsheng looked at Hua Jiefu and said, "So you can pretend that you don't know that I'm in Xunyang City."

Hua Jiefu said: "But you are in Xunyang City, and when do you want to stay? Everyone has to solve their own troubles, not to mention that the gentleman himself is a trouble."

Chen Changsheng thought for a while and said, "I want to wait until someone from Lishan Sword Sect comes, or... someone who has his trust and the ability to protect him arrives."

Hua Jiefu sighed and said, "Everyone knows that Su Li never believes in others... He has no friends, not one. When will you wait until such a person appear?"

"Maybe...but I always feel that someone should be willing to help him."

After saying this, Chen Changsheng turned around and walked into the room.

Hua Jiefu suddenly said behind him: "You probably don't know yet... Something happened outside Zhouyuan, and you really need to go back to Kyoto as soon as possible to solve it."

Chen Changsheng stopped and asked, "What's the matter?"

Hua Jiefu said, "Liang Xiaoxiao is dead."

Chen Changsheng didn't expect to hear such news. He was stunned and said, "He is a spy from the demon clan, who was killed?"

Hua Jiefu's expression was a little complicated and said, "He said he was killed by you."

Chen Changsheng was surprised and asked, "What he said? I killed me?"

"Yes, although he did not explain before he died, everyone knew what he meant." Hua Jiefu looked into his eyes and said, "He died under the last move of the Lishan Sword Sword Sword. There are only Qijian in Zhouyuan and you know this kind of sword technique."

Chen Changsheng was stunned, unable to understand what was going on.

Hua Jiefu finally said: "Liang Xiaoxiao said that you and Zhexiu are spies of the demon clan, and Zhexiu... have been put under Zhou Prison."

Hearing this, Chen Changsheng was silent for a long time. He knew that he had to go back to Kyoto as soon as possible, but how could he leave now? He looked at the closed door and felt very troublesome.
