Chapter 1273: Partnering Up
Here.
Ye Fusheng urged his horse forward all the way, straight towards the Judgment Hall, changing back into his original clothes on the way.
Changsheng Town was my first time visiting, but I wasn't unfamiliar with the surrounding area. I distinctly remember that the people living there spanned all ages and wore diverse clothing styles. So my outfit wasn't particularly out of place.
However, the clothes obtained from the old woman were easier to remember.
After about an hour's walk, he stopped and did not go any further.
The reason is simple, his speed though fast, hasn't reached full speed yet. After all, being too abrupt would be easily noticed. If nothing unexpected happens, those guards behind him should have already caught up.
If you keep going forward, there is a high probability that you will be caught up.
Even the guards had notified the guards in the direction of the Judgement Hall, and they were coming to surround and capture them.
I don't want to have a direct collision for now, so I'll just dodge if I can.
"If I'm not mistaken, Nancheng is also a domain!"
After walking for so long, he was very certain that, judging from the slope where he lived, the straight-line distance to Fengdu City would take him about two hours' walk.
Now, if you count carefully, it's already been two hours.
Of course, although it was a domain, Ye Fusheng wasn't worried because he was already within the domain. Therefore, whether it was a domain or not didn't matter much to him.
"To the right is Xicheng. If the city division were a straight line, it would mean that if you walked west for less than a quarter of an hour, you would return to Shiyu."
“So, now to evade pursuit, the only option is to head east.”
He moved immediately, marching eastward.
Although it looks like a flat expanse to the east from here, somewhat like a desert, and even further ahead is unknown, entering Shiyu to the west is definitely a dead end.
I can only try my best, and pick up the pace again.
After walking for about half a quarter of an hour, he turned his head to look back at the road he had just traveled. The road that was once wide and broad had now become a thin line, so narrow that it could be ignored if you weren't paying close attention.
"I see the road like this, they should only see me as a small black dot, so I'm safe for now."
Ye Fusheng turned around completely and walked backward.
I just used Shadowstep. If conditions allow, I can use it again, just follow them when they pass by and quietly sneak up behind them.
Take measured steps back.
Suddenly.
He stepped into a void, his center of gravity unstable, almost falling. Fortunately, he reacted quickly, exhaling sharply to steady himself. He turned his head and saw that there was a pit beneath his feet.
It's not just beneath our feet.
Looking ahead, the entire plain was covered with countless pits, about two feet in diameter each. They were scattered haphazardly; anyone with a fear of crowds would be terrified to see them.
Before he could think more about it.
"Are you **ing looking for a death!"
A roar suddenly echoed from within the cave.
Then, a middle-aged man in a huff appeared from the cave. He was busy dressing, his hands moving non-stop.
Ye Fusheng was stunned. There were actually people here.
This man leaped out of the hole in one bound, standing before Ye Fusheng. He was extremely hot-tempered, grabbing Ye Fusheng's collar with one hand and glaring at him, "Are you insane I asked if you were looking for death!"
Slap!
Ye Fusheng was too lazy to waste words and slapped him away.
The man flew out several dozen feet and crashed heavily to the ground, but he didn't fear. With a ferocious expression, he quickly got up and drifted toward Ye Fusheng.
"Dare to move me, and I'll kill you!"
Whoosh!
Ye Fusheng saw him approach, raised his hand and firmly grasped his fist, indifferently saying: "I'm just passing by, if you provoke me again, I'll kill you first!"
After he finished speaking, he fell heavily back into the hole.
"Ah..."
A scream suddenly echoed from within the cave, a woman's voice, clearly terrified.
I have to admit.
A woman's scream carries more power than a man's.
Then dozens of faces peered out from the nearby holes, just like prairie dogs. The sight was rather comical, and they all stared at Ye Fusheng in wonder.
"Are there people in the cave"
Ye Fusheng was taken aback by this scene. He never expected that there were still people living here. If so, wouldn't all the caves in this vast plain be inhabited
He quickly smiled and said, “I am an old acquaintance of his, here to learn some things, I didn't mean to disturb everyone, sorry.”
As they were speaking, he quickly jumped into the hole.
You shouldn't stay in their line of sight for too long, as it could cause unnecessary trouble.
Upon entering the cave, one discovers that it is not deep, barely two meters in height. Nor is it large, measuring less than a zhang square. It is an entire unit, visible at a glance.
If you compare the place you're going down to a door, then looking forward is the bedroom.
One-room, no living room.
The man who had just been knocked down looked at the other person with suspicion and apprehension, "What do you want Get out of here now, or don't blame me if I fight back."
A woman huddled in the corner, shivering under a blanket. She didn't appear to be very old, perhaps around thirty years of age, and her face was still quite pretty.
Ye Fu Sheng's original intention was only to hide, so as not to attract the attention of the people around him who were causing trouble. But the scene before him made it impossible for him to stay out of it.
He asked in a low voice, "Are you husband and wife"
No wonder he was curious, the man looked to be around forty years old, while the woman was much younger.
Hearing this.
The man was on high alert, looking like he was ready to fight to the death at any moment: "Why are you asking these questions Let me tell you, even though you have a strong presence and are quite skilled, if you try to provoke me, I'll tear a piece of flesh off you even if it means losing my soul."
Slap!
Ye Fusheng casually shot out a breath of air with his hand.
The man was beaten and tumbled around in the pit, falling heavily to the bottom. The entire pit seemed to shake, and he writhed in pain, gritting his teeth and clutching at his soul as it grew translucent with agony.
Ye Fusheng looked at the woman again: "Has he bullied you Did he force you"
The woman stood still, looked at the man, first nodded her head, then shook it.
"Speak!"
Ye Fusheng's voice raised several degrees.
"No." The woman blurted out, then trembled, "I willingly chose to be with him, Big Brother, who are you What do you want"
Volunteer
Could I have misunderstood
Is she just too pressured to tell the truth
"You can speak the truth, I'll back you up. Don't worry, he's nothing to me, and I guarantee no one will dare touch you again."
The woman choked back tears and shook her head, indicating she didn't need it.
The man calmed down a little, completely recognizing reality. He and Ye Fusheng weren't just a bit different; he had absolutely no power to resist. At the same time, he finally understood what Ye Fusheng meant.
"Are you here to be a hero and save the day Let me tell you again, she's my wife, we are married! What do you want!"
Ye Fusheng didn't make a move this time.
"He questioned, “If you are a couple, how can there be such a large age difference between you Also, if you are husband and wife, why does she show no concern for you, and you don't seem to have any love for her”
A normal wife would have come up to check on her husband if she saw him being beaten.
A normal husband, seeing that someone has broken into the house, would also urge his wife to put on her clothes quickly.
The man choked for a while, and finally looked at Ye Fusheng in disbelief: "I'm forty-three years old, she's thirty-one. Is the age difference a problem We just live together as partners, we don't necessarily drink Mengpo soup every day and enter reincarnation. Why do we need to have feelings"
