Have You Met My Brother?[Comprehensive Martial Arts + Sword Three] Chapter 32

Chapter 32 Traveling to Yangzhou [Inverted v] The wild goose does not return: I am not a road fool…

Almost at the same time that Xue Ling and Bai Renyu set off for the Central Plains, Yan Bugui had already left the city where he was originally located and was on his way to the capital – at least he thought he was on the way to the north.

Until he saw the port and the sea, he still didn’t think there was much of a problem – after all, the South China Sea is a sea and the East China Sea is also a sea. The only difference is that the South China Sea is south of Lingnan and the East China Sea is east of Jiangnan. The former is far away from the capital, while the latter is already halfway there.

Of course, when asked whether the sea in front of him was the South China Sea and not the East China Sea, Yan Bugui still had a faint desire to sigh.He was used to it. He just had such an inexplicable “talent” and his position would shift for some unknown reason as he walked.

Brother Xie said that this is because his five senses and intuition are too strong, and his perception of the world is different from ordinary people. There are gains and losses, and his sense of direction is relatively poor. In fact, it is not that he has a poor sense of direction, but that he cannot adapt to the kind of perception that transcends ordinary people’s knowledge and is easily misled, so he has become a “road fool.”

Shaking his head silently, the swordsman rejected the passerby who put on a mysterious smile and suggested that he could go to the densely packed wooden houses not far away to “have fun” – that inferior powdery fragrance mixed with the smell of sweat, hair oil, and the corrosive smell of things between men and women, it was a kind of torture to his nose, and he could tell where it was without seeing it with his own eyes.

Not to mention whether Brother Xie would beat him to death if he knew by some mysterious means that he had been to that kind of place in the future, he himself had no interest in getting close to it… If he really wanted to vent his excess energy, wouldn’t it be enough to swing the knife hundreds or thousands of times?Many times he really couldn’t understand why someone would be addicted to doing this kind of thing with strangers.

Yan Bugui, who had only had the impulse of the spring dream towards Xie Donghai from the beginning to the end, turned around with the knife in hand and walked out of the area without any regrets. At the same time, he found someone else to ask if there was a ship heading north – preferably one near the capital.

It’s a pity that if you ask along the way, you will either go to a certain island or a certain island. However… none of them have been heard of by the swordsman, and some even say that they can go to Japan – really unlucky.The ships heading north along the coastline will only reach the Yangzhou area at most.

Yan Bugui thought about it for a moment, thinking that it would be possible to go to Yangzhou. At least it would be more reliable than asking for directions all the time – there was no carriage delivery service in the Central Plains, so he had to fly by himself!Ahem, in short, putting aside those minor resentments, he had already made up his mind – he had to find a way to hire a guide when he arrived in Yangzhou, which should avoid some trouble.

Because he wanted to meet Liu Yuan as soon as possible and did not intend to continue his nonsense, Yan Bugui made up his mind to fight quickly, so even if the ship boss Lion asked him for a ticket of one hundred taels, he still gave it – as long as the other party’s ship was indeed going to Yangzhou and he didn’t make any small tricks, he didn’t care if he was slaughtered as a fat sheep.

“The ship is sailing -”

Not long after Yan Bugui boarded the ship, the ship quickly began to weigh anchor and prepare to sail out of the port – the person who sold him the right to board the ship said that the ship was full and was about to depart. It was very risky to have him temporarily extra, so he was asked to pay more money before he was allowed to board.

Yan Bugui only half believed this kind of talk – the ship would indeed sail soon.As for the “risk of being overweight”… being overweight does bring considerable risks, but according to his experience, this weight should not be exceeded, and there is still a lot of margin.And according to his observation, besides him there were a few people who were also rushing to board the ship at the last minute.

Yan Bugui held the Hengdao in front of him, and his eyes hidden in the shadow of the bamboo hat retracted from looking at the boatmen and passengers coming and going, and turned elsewhere.The ship seemed to be a merchant ship, with mostly unknown cargo piled at the bottom of the cabin. The number of people was not too large, but it was clearly divided into two groups: people from the caravan – including its owner, hired boatmen and guards, and individual people like him who paid to borrow the ship to travel.

For those guards, he only glanced at them and estimated that those people should have received the same training and had good skills, but together they would not be his opponents, so he stopped paying attention.The more attention was paid to the caravan owner who brought the piano to the deck and played it leisurely.

This man has a lot of interest, good piano skills, and moves gracefully and freely. He is not much different from ordinary young men from aristocratic families. It’s just that his eyes are empty and lifeless, and there must be something wrong with him.However, even if he is blind in both eyes, it will obviously not have much impact on him, and he will also have a better and keener awareness – “Your Excellency, what is wrong with your lower body? Why do you keep looking at it?”

Listen.Yan Bugui felt that he was careful enough, but his observation still made the other party aware of it.In fact, the swordsman was not too surprised, because on the whole ship, perhaps except for him, this young man who seemed to be a brilliant man had the best martial arts.

When someone asked him about it, he clasped his fists from a distance and said, “I’m sorry. I just heard that the sound of the young master’s piano was very pleasant, but the music was something I had never heard before, so I was just a little curious.”

“Such a piece of music is just a casual play…” The handsome, elegant but blind young master, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, cupped his hands towards the position where the wild goose was not returning, “Your Excellency, you are also good at music?”

Yan Bugui replied honestly: “I know a little, but I’m not good at it. I’m far inferior to the young master. I’m sorry for interrupting the young master’s playing. A rough guy like me will no longer disturb the young master’s interest and leave.”

The young man seemed to want to stay gently, but when he heard that the other party walked away decisively, he just said: “In that case, we will meet again if we are destined.”

And Yan Bugui had already walked from the bow to the stern of the ship – of course he didn’t want to have a too deep friendship with the owner of the caravan. The impression he gave him was a bit chaotic. Generally speaking, most such people were secretive, ambitious, and secretive – just like the first impression he had on him when he first met Xie Cai.

In fact, until now, he still couldn’t figure out why Xie Cai betrayed Senior Fang Gan and betrayed Penglai.This person has almost colluded with various forces, big and small, in the southeast, northwest, and northwest, and is still fanning the flames and creating chaos everywhere… Is all he does just to see the world in chaos?

At least Yue Quanhuai, who had worked with Xie Cai before, acted crazy, but it could be seen that the latter was trying to fill in the gaps, to live forever, to reach the top spot… When Xie Donghai mentioned Yue Quanhuai, he commented that he was like “a Garuda who doesn’t know enough.”After the battle in Jiulao Cave, he heard about Yue Quanhuai’s fate – the other party was transformed due to the special nature of Shenmanguo, and eventually burned himself to death.

What about Xie Cai?Yan Bugui couldn’t understand this person, and he didn’t intend to understand him.But he knows very well that if he encounters a similar guy, he should stay away from him, otherwise he must be careful not to be sold by such a person and count the money for others!

Sailing on the sea is very boring and empty. Facing the vast sea, people will inevitably become impetuous – this is because the ship only travels along the coastline and does not stray too far from the land. If it goes deep into the inland sea, it will make people feel even more confused.

However, Yanbugui, who often runs between Wengzhou and Penglai, has long been accustomed to sailing. He does not have any psychological pressure at all and does not need to relieve it through communication with others.In his opinion, the unknown caravan owner was more terrifying than the ocean.Therefore, he deliberately avoided the other party during this period of time on the boat. Until the swaying ship finally docked, he simply jumped off the ship and ran into the city.

It was getting late at this time, the tail of the setting sun was falling heavily, and the bright silver moon began to release its charm.The shops and houses along the street are hung with bright lanterns one after another. The continuous lights are like stars coming from the world, paving the splendid rivers of stars.

Yan Bugui touched his empty stomach, looked at the children running by in the street and the adult men and women taking a leisurely stroll, thinking about what to eat tonight – and then grabbed the thief who was mixed in the crowd and was reaching out to steal the jade pendant around his waist.

The swordsman paid attention to the strength of his hand and did not directly break the thief’s wrist. However, the thin man with very unremarkable clothes and face still shouted “Help”, so that many passers-by looked at him with curiosity, surprise and vigilance.

Well, what do you do if you catch a thief who attempted a robbery?The time when the wild geese will not return is a bit uncertain.When he first entered the Central Plains, he made no secret of the fact that he was a disciple of the Dao Sect from Wengzhou. Some people scolded him, lied to him, robbed him, and drugged him… but he never met anyone who would directly come up to steal his things.

However, considering that this place was quite orderly, he immediately asked: “How can I get to the Yamen? I want to send this thief there.”

When the skinny man heard this, he immediately shouted, “What thief? I don’t know you at all! It was you who grabbed my hand out of nowhere! I’m warning you, don’t try to do harm and take credit!”

Yan Bugui looked down at him: “So you mean to keep it private?”

The skinny man’s eyes flashed with light: “Have sex? Yes, that’s right! You pay me one… no, ten taels of silver, and this matter will be settled!”

Hearing this, Yan Bugui did not give a reply, but simply dragged the man towards the dark alley.Probably because they didn’t want to cause trouble, people in the direction of the swordsman’s movement involuntarily made way for a passage.When the skinny man saw this, he couldn’t help but start to panic, and shouted again: “What do you want to do? You are abducting and selling good families in front of everyone, do you still have the right to do it!”

Yan Bugui turned a deaf ear, even though the skinny man tried to use the weight pendant to prevent himself from being dragged away, and kept struggling to get rid of his grasp… But everything was in vain. The latter was still taken into a dark alley where almost no one else passed, going deeper and deeper – and then being kicked, kicked and beaten.

With a “ding” sound, a copper coin was popped out from the swordsman’s fingers. It flipped and fell in front of the skinny man who was lying on the ground and screaming, with a bruised nose and face. The copper coin even drew half an arc before it fell completely – it was the common copper coin here, which he had exchanged for the rest before.

Yan Bugui rubbed his wrist that he barely exerted any force on – he was very careful that he only punched the other person so that it hurt, there were at most some bruises on his body, and there were no other internal or external injuries at all.He couldn’t bear the pain of mere flesh. God knows why this guy had the guts to steal on him.

In the past, when practicing swordsmanship and sparring with fellow disciples, it was not normal for the swordsman to not be injured ten or eight times a day. He silently despised this, then straightened his bamboo hat with his white-gloved hand, lowered his eyes and said calmly: “For one penny, you want private medical expenses.”

After speaking, he no longer cared about the people behind him and strode away.
