Chapter 2635: Early Congratulations on Your Triumphant Return!

~9 min read 1,777 words

Jian Gong Bo Ou Bo Jun, together with the Right Army Governor-General's Office Governor Wu Shutong, after going through a banquet, quickly became familiar with each other.

These two people each had their own thoughts in their hearts; Ou Bo Jun felt that Wu Shutong was a true confidant of the wise lord with real authority, naturally worthy of his deep friendship;

while Wu Shutong also felt that the wise lord had already shown an attitude of allowing the four great marquises to contact the Five Armies Governor-General's Office, so in the future he would naturally have to deal with the four great marquises, and moreover the other party's strength was much greater than his own, so being able to form a deep friendship was naturally also a good thing.

Thus, the two people seemed to have a feeling of meeting late in life; if it weren't for Ou Bo Jun having to go to Cyprus in the evening, the two might have even burned yellow paper to become sworn brothers.

After lunch, Ou Bo Jun, under Wu Shutong's warm invitation, rode together with him in a carriage after the meal and began to tour Naples.

Located at the southern end of the European continent, Naples has a warm and pleasant climate; even just taking a quick look around made Ou Bo Jun's mood much more pleasant.

In the evening, Wu Shutong personally hosted a banquet and drank and chatted with Ou Bo Jun.

At the banquet table, the two also formulated a plan to investigate the Cyprus copper mine.

The first thing the two needed to confirm was whether the copper mine jiedushi Ni Zhenyu had secret contact with foreign enemies.

Therefore, the two's plan was: after Ou Bo Jun secretly sneaked into the copper mine's interior and began to secretly monitor Ni Zhenyu, Wu Shutong would issue a new secret order to Ni Zhenyu, ordering him to immediately send people to Italy, Rome, to carry out a secret mission.

And Wu Shutong would also at that time send experts ahead to Rome, waiting to secretly deploy surveillance on the incoming Jinyiwei who were to carry out the mission, to see if they would encounter an ambush or secretly communicate with the enemy;

if Ni Zhenyu had a problem, he would certainly, upon receiving the secret order, immediately contact the outside world through other means; once detected, he could be caught red-handed, and then follow the clues to find the organization or individual colluding with him inside and outside.

if Ni Zhenyu had no problem, and Wu Shutong's side also found no problem with the Jinyiwei, then the previous incident in Northern Europe was probably not an internal leak.

After the two had discussed the plan and were full from food and drink, Wu Shutong saw that it was about time to go to the airport, and smilingly said: "Jian Gong Bo, I, your subordinate, will see you off to the airport!" Look book chen

"Good!" Ou Bo Jun laughed heartily and stood up, patted Wu Shutong on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Wu Laodi, you and I both serve the wise lord loyally; in ancient times we would be comrades-in-arms, in modern times we are colleagues; from now on, there is no need for us to be so polite; you call me Ou Lao Ge, I call you Wu Lao Di, and from now on we two will address each other as brothers."

Wu Shutong had an expression of being honored and surprised, and said: "That is truly my honor as the younger brother!"

After speaking, he hurriedly poured two full cups of wine, handed one to Ou Bo Jun, and excitedly said: "Old brother, let us two brothers drink another cup! Early congratulations on your triumphant return!"

Ou Bo Jun laughed heartily: "Good, good, good! With your blessing, younger brother, I believe I will surely win victory at the outset in this trip to Cyprus; if I can uncover the problem, then in the merits, there will also be a share for you, younger brother!"

Wu Shutong hurriedly said: "Ai yo ai yo my good big brother, I, the younger brother, say a word from my heart: if this time you truly uncover a problem in Cyprus, you have solved a major trouble for me, the younger brother! Otherwise, if in the future it should happen that I bring greater loss to the wise lord, the wise lord himself will certainly not let me off!"

Ou Bo Jun said with a firm expression: "Younger brother, rest assured; this time, if there is a problem in Cyprus, I, the older brother, will certainly find it out; if there is no problem in Cyprus, I will certainly inform the wise lord and thoroughly remove your trouble!"

Wu Shutong held up his wine cup, with an expression of gratitude, and said: "Old brother, nothing else needs to be said; it's all in the wine!"

Ou Bo Jun laughed: "Good! I and my younger brother will share this cup; this time we will surely triumph!"

……

Nine o'clock in the evening.

A government aircraft took off from Naples Airport, heading for Larnaca International Airport in Cyprus.

Ou Bo Jun on the aircraft was in a very relaxed state of mind; in his view, this trip to Cyprus was no different from an ordinary person going to a chicken farm, and there was absolutely no need to worry about any danger.

When the aircraft was halfway through its flight, he suddenly took out his mobile phone, used the internal communication software of the Broken Clear Society, and sent a video call invitation to Yun Ruoge, the Dingyuan Bo from the Far East.

Yun Ruoge did not answer, but after rejecting his invitation, replied with a voice message: "Jian Gong Bo, what do you want from me?"

Ou Bo Jun laughed heartily and said: "Ruoge, surely the Far East is a very boring place? Today I went to Naples and found that the climate and customs of Southern Europe are quite good; if there is an opportunity, we two might as well go there together for a tour."

Yun Ruoge said lightly: "Forget it; I'd rather stay alone."

Ou Bo Jun replied: "Ruoge, why do you insist on keeping me at arm's length? After all these years, you should know my sincerity toward you; look around, under heaven, is there anyone more suitable for you than me?"

Yun Ruoge retorted in a displeased tone: "Why do I need someone to suit me? You wouldn't think that I still have any need for emotions even now, would you? What use are emotions? Can they increase cultivation? Can they grant longevity?"

Ou Bo Jun sighed, laughed embarrassedly, and said: "Ruoge, look at you; although emotions cannot increase cultivation nor grant longevity, they can make people satisfied! No matter how we cultivate, we cannot live forever; since we are bound to die sooner or later, why not take some time and enjoy life in time?"

Yun Ruoge said coldly: "Sorry, I have no interest in enjoying life."

Ou Bo Jun's tone became somewhat urgent, and he retorted: "You can't possibly remain an unmarried young lady until death, can you? If you don't find another half, at least you should give birth to a son or half a daughter; otherwise, after we die, who will erect our steles and inscribe our biographies, who will kowtow and burn paper for us?"

Yun Ruoge said disdainfully: "When a person dies, it is like a lamp going out; if I die, the best outcome would be to die without any attachments, letting this body return to dust and earth; as for erecting steles and inscribing biographies, kowtowing and burning paper, I am already dead, so what use would these things be?"

Ou Bo Jun realized Yun Ruoge was on guard against him, sighed helplessly, and muttered: "It's not easy to come into this world and live one life; I don't want to die in obscurity, I want someone to remember me after death, not to forget me."

Yun Ruoge snorted and laughed in reply: "Then hurry up and find a woman to marry in the society, let her bear you a few children, so that after you die, your descendants will have someone to sweep your tomb and burn paper for you."

Ou Bo Jun said resentfully: "Dingyuan Bo, I have repeatedly hinted both openly and subtly, yet you always find various excuses to put me off; I, Ou Bo Jun, am I really that inferior? I cannot enter your discernment, Dingyuan Bo."

Yun Ruoge said with a light laugh: "Jian Gong Bo is joking; He Deheneng, how could I be so favored by you? He Deheneng also does not look down on you; He Deheneng merely seeks cultivation, and if longevity can be attained, then everything worth having in the world will eventually come; if longevity cannot be attained, then everything will be like passing clouds, unable to endure, and He Deheneng does not like this feeling."

Ou Bo Jun was stunned for a moment, then sighed deeply: "How could longevity be so easily sought? Even the wise lord himself, strong as he is, does not have this ability; this would require supernatural power!"

Yun Ruoge said calmly: "Whether to seek or not is my matter; whether to obtain or not is heaven's matter; the two do not conflict."

After speaking, Yun Ruoge sent another voice message, saying: "Jian Gong Bo, although we are comrades-in-arms, we ultimately are not on the same path, so please, Jian Gong Bo, do not waste your time on me in the future."

Ou Bo Jun felt very depressed in his heart, mixed with a few points of sorrow, a few points of anger, and a few points of resentment.

But since Yun Ruoge had spoken to this extent, he really had no face to continue pestering her; so he sighed and said dejectedly: "Enough, enough; Dingyuan Bo has lofty aspirations; I know I am not worthy of you; today I have indeed been presumptuous; in the future when we meet, please, Dingyuan Bo, do not take it to heart."

Yun Ruoge said with a laugh: "I have a bad memory; just now I accidentally deleted Jian Gong Bo's information; what Jian Gong Bo just said, I also cannot recall."

Ou Bo Jun knew that Yun Ruoge was giving him a way out, so he replied: "Since Dingyuan Bo has deleted and forgotten it, then I will also not mention it again; I hope that you and I can both complete the tasks entrusted by the wise lord and return triumphantly!"
