Chapter 41

Watching his senior brother leave, Yu Heng sat on the futon with some loss, always feeling empty in his heart.

Since he could remember, the three of them had never been separated; he was very happy following Master and senior brother, but he didn't want to be separated in just a few words.

But he believed that Master wouldn't harm him, so he could only ask weakly.

"Master, then who do I go to find in the Northern Frontier?"

Bu Yunsuan shook his head: "I don't know either; originally the stars in the Northern Frontier were mixed, like a chaotic situation, but the two constellations of Wei and Xu suddenly rose; currently, although the light is dim, there is a trend of rising later."

Yu Heng was speechless; Master's words were no different from not saying anything; in the vast Northern Frontier, he went to find these two people, no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.

Seeing through what his disciple was thinking in his heart, Bu Yunsuan wasn't angry, but instead petted Yu Heng's head lovingly.

Yu Heng continued to ask, wanting to learn more from his master's mouth: "Then what does the second half of the sentence about the Northern Frontier mean?"

"From the celestial phenomenon, currently the two constellations of Wei and Xu have a connected horn trend, but they haven't fully combined; if they combine, I'm afraid their light will surpass the Western Liang King of the Western Frontier."

Hearing this, Yu Heng nodded as if he understood, not knowing what was in his little head.

Bu Yunsuan turned around, no longer looking at this clingy disciple, leaving only one sentence: "You go too!"

Hearing Master chasing him away, Yu Heng couldn't help but wipe away tears: "Master, can I leave tomorrow?"

Bu Yunsuan still had his back to Yu Heng, without responding or making any movement.

Yu Heng learned from his senior brother, knelt on both knees and performed a big ceremony.

After standing up, he said to Master's back: "Master, disciple is leaving."

Just as he took a step after turning around, he couldn't help but turn around: "Master, you old man, remember to eat on time."

Seeing Bu Yunsuan not responding, he walked out while looking back three times for every step.

"Master, cover yourself well when sleeping at night."

"Master, if the situation is not right, you find a place to hide, wait for me and senior brother to come pick you up."

"Master..."

"Take care!"

Until there was no sound behind him for a long time, Bu Yunsuan opened his eyes, his turbid eyes covered with a layer of water mist.

These two disciples of his had been following him since they were young, but they had completely different temperaments.

The eldest disciple Xuanji was steady and spoke little, always doing more and saying less, and had never made him worry.

The younger disciple was younger, lively and active, spoke a lot, but was clever, and had some quick wit; he only hoped that the two would go smoothly this time.

As for himself?!

Let's help the old emperor one last time!

It wouldn't be considered failing the original grace of knowing and meeting.

"Three with one, do you want it?"

"Can't afford it."

"King bomb, reporting single!"

Wang Sixi threw the bamboo slip in his hand on the table, unable to help complaining: "Lost again! Brother Jiang, this game was designed by you specifically for yourself, right?"

Jiang Jinshi raised his eyebrows: "How are you talking? You are questioning my noble character."

Waking up in the morning, the few were too bored, so they found some bamboo pieces, shaved them thin, made them into simple playing cards, and started playing "Fight the Landlord."

Such a novel game naturally attracted the onlookers of many people in the Viper Stronghold, and at this moment, there were several circles around the few.

"What are you all doing here? Why don't you go patrol?"

Pit Viper's voice came from outside the door, and the bandits who were watching with great interest scattered in a flurry.

Jiang Jinshi waved at Pit Viper enthusiastically: "Any news?"

Pit Viper nodded, and it wasn't hard to see the joy in his heart from his expression.

"Just now the Centipede Stronghold has sent people to every stronghold to spread the news, saying that even if they turn Lianhuan Shan upside down, they must find you few."

Hearing this, Jiang Jinshi looked confident: "As I expected, then the next things will be easy to operate."

"Should we send people to respond immediately? Will it be too fast and arouse the suspicion of the Centipede Stronghold?"

Pit Viper always thought too much when doing things; of course, this wasn't a bad thing, he was the one who relied on this point to reach his current status.

"Of course! If the things you said were all fake, it would naturally arouse the suspicion of the Centipede Stronghold, but it's an ironclad fact that my brothers and I stayed in the Spider Stronghold, many people in the stronghold know it, even if that Black Spider has eight mouths, he can't explain it clearly!" Jiang Jinshi said so.

After thinking about it, Pit Viper still felt that what Jiang Jinshi said made sense, so he turned to arrange this matter.

After a night of thinking, Pit Viper finally thought of a way to have the best of both worlds.

If the matter succeeded, he would replace Viper as the head leader of the Viper Stronghold, and then silence Jiang Jinshi and the others, and no one would know the origin of this matter.

If it failed, it didn't matter; as long as he handed over Jiang Jinshi and the others to the people of the Centipede Stronghold to appease their anger, he would still be the second head leader of the Viper Stronghold.

Anyway, regardless of the result, the result of Jiang Jinshi and his party was already fixed in his heart.

Looking at Pit Viper's back as he left, Jiang Jinshi narrowed his eyes; this time he not only wanted the stronghold, but also money, people, and reputation, just depending on how Pit Viper operated.

Even if it failed, it didn't matter; there were still a few days, everything could catch up, and at least he could ensure his party's safe withdrawal.

Jiang Jinshi's motto in his past life was that things don't work just by thinking, you have to do them!

As an orphan, can you solve the problem just by thinking about being full?

You have to snatch food from other people's bowls, and if you can't snatch it, then kneel and beg others to give you a bite.

There will always be a way to solve things, and the stomach will always be full, won't it?!

When the sun rose to the highest point, a bandit suddenly ran to report to Pit Viper that the injury on Wang Xiaoniu's body had worsened, and he was now unconscious, and Jiang Jinshi and his party wanted to go down the mountain to send Wang Xiaoniu to the medical clinic in the city.

Pit Viper naturally knew about Wang Xiaoniu's situation; after all, last night in the main hall, he could inadvertently see the dense knife wounds behind the blood-soaked cloth strips.

Of course, Pit Viper wouldn't allow them to go down the mountain; Jiang Jinshi and the others were his trump card to get out of this action, and to appease Jiang Jinshi and his party, Pit Viper only agreed to send Wang Xiaoniu to the medical clinic, but it must be sent by his own people.

Just based on the injuries on Wang Xiaoniu's body, he could conclude at a glance that the other party couldn't live, so Pit Viper didn't prepare to send Wang Xiaoniu down the mountain at all; he ordered his subordinates to pull Wang Xiaoniu to a pit on the mountainside to bury him, and even for safety, he told his subordinates to remember to finish him off.

This matter was just a small episode for Pit Viper, but it made Jiang Jinshi a bit surprised.

He didn't expect Pit Viper to agree so easily; he had prepared two other plans that weren't used.

So two bandits made a simple stretcher with bamboo and prepared to carry Wang Xiaoniu away; Jiang Jinshi pretended to help and quietly tucked the firewood knife into Wang Xiaoniu's waist, instructing in a voice that only the two could hear clearly: "Be careful, there might be a problem."
