Laughing, the host always wants to escape

Chapter 180: The Jianghu in the Wine and Sword Village (23)

"Of course not. Helping others is a quality that people of our generation should have. Let us help you." The servant boy glanced at Jiang Sichen, sighed slightly, then lifted him up together and walked towards the mountain.

During this time, the two of them did not forget to look back at Tang Cuo and asked, "Young Master, do you want us to carry you up together?"

"No, no... no." Tang Cuo quickly shook his head, "I can do it myself, don't bother you two."

"That's fine. If you feel tired, you can tell us. We have been practicing martial arts since childhood, so it won't be difficult for us to carry you up."

The servant boy did not exchange any pleasantries, but instead quickened his pace and led Tang Cuo deeper into the cave.

After climbing over the mountain, Tangcuo leaned over and held onto the rock wall on one side, breathing heavily, "You two boys live quite far away..."

"Uh... don't worry, young master. We will be there soon. After we pass through some water, we will reach our habitat." The boy turned around and comforted him.

"Waterway? We have to walk another section of waterway?" Oh my god, how could such a good person live in such a crooked place? Was he afraid that others would find him?

Tang Cuo took a deep breath, then continued to follow the two of them. After crossing the top of the mountain, the three of them began to walk down. They stopped only when they reached flat ground.

One of them walked quickly towards the depths of the reed marsh. After a moment, he launched a small boat from somewhere and looked at the people. "Everyone, get on the boat. We will arrive after crossing this section of the water."

Tang Cuo raised his eyes and looked around for a few times, without thinking too much, he stepped onto the boat. The servant put Jiang Sichen down in a comfortable position, then picked up the oar beside him and rowed towards the direction of the stream.

"You two, I wonder where exactly you live?" Tang Cuo looked at the falling petals flying around him, and his fingers couldn't help but raise up to catch them.

"It's in a valley. Our master said it's quite secluded and usually no one comes to disturb us."

"Then why did you come here?" Tang Cuo looked at the two of them in confusion.

"Our master also said that there will be guests coming today and asked us to wait here in advance." said the servant.

"Then your master is quite powerful, he knows all this..." Tang Cuo pursed his lips.

"Of course, the master is the most powerful person in the world, he knows everything." Hearing Tang Cuo's words, the servant boy felt inexplicably proud.

The boat slowly sailed through the stream and entered a mountain stream covered with clouds and mist. The surrounding birds and animals flew along with the boat, as if they were showing the way to the people.

In the distance, a city wall stands proudly on the shore, and the towering brown-gray gate gives people an inexplicable sense of oppression.

"Young master, we're here. You must follow us after we dock." The servant boy smiled, with a gleam in the corner of his eyes.

Tang Cuo nodded and followed closely behind them.

On top of the city gate, a woman in red was gazing at the distant scenery, her affectionate eyes slightly raised, with a sharp edge that was difficult to conceal.

"They are back, open the door." The woman raised her hand and then walked down the city gate silently.

Several people slowly walked into the brown-gray gate. Tang Cuo looked around and saw that the surrounding area was full of peach trees. When the breeze blew, the fragrance lingered around the noses of several people, refreshing their hearts.

The petals fluttered and fell on Tangcuo's shoulders and head, and he couldn't help but exclaim.

"Young master, you can move around as you like. Let's take him to the guest room first." The servant nodded slightly towards him.

"Ah."

As soon as the words fell, the two gradually walked out of Tang Cuo's sight.

Hearing the screams coming from another place in the yard, Tangcuo walked towards that direction curiously. He quietly hid behind a tree and stuck his head out to observe the scene in front of him.

In front of me, a man in black was training with a team of people. They were holding swords tightly in their hands, working in groups of two, practicing sparring.

Suddenly, the man in black looked behind the tree. He then took out a throwing knife from his sleeve and threw it towards the tree trunk. "Who? Come out!"

Tang Cuo leaned against the tree trunk, pounding his chest with his hands to calm his breathing, "Oh my god... I'm scared to death."

"Not coming out? Then I won't be polite." The man's tone was somewhat threatening.

Hearing his words, Tang Cuo took a deep breath helplessly and slowly moved in front of everyone. The moment he saw his face again, Tang Cuo opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

"Aren't you the one who wanted to kill me in front of the ruined temple that day?" Tang Cuo raised his finger and pointed at him.

Kui Ye seemed to have recognized Tang Cuo's identity and immediately turned around, "You've made a mistake, I'm not..."

"How is that possible? You are a person with religious beliefs in this era. I remembered you right away. How could I have made a mistake?" Tang Cuo shook his head in disbelief.

Seeing that he couldn't shirk it, Kui Ye sighed and patted the back of his hand vigorously, "It's all your fault. Why did you do this?"

After he finished speaking, he straightened his face and walked to Tang Cuo's side with a smile, "You really made a mistake. The person you are talking about might be my useless brother..."

"Your brother? Are you a twin?"

"Twins?" Kui Ye didn't quite understand what this meant, but judging from his reaction, he must have been frightened. "Yes... they are twins."

"Hey, I get angry when I mention my good-for-nothing younger brother. He is unfilial, disloyal and unrighteous. I have long expelled him from my family. I didn't expect that he would actually hurt the young man. I heard about this. It's too much. When I catch him, I will beat him to death." Kui Ye pursed his lips.

"That's... not necessary." Hearing his words, Tang Cuo's mouth twitched a little.

"By the way, I heard that he also fought with another young man beside you?" Kui Ye's fingers trembled slightly, "I wonder if that young man is back?"

"Well, I'll stay in your village for now."

"Oh my!" After hearing Tang Cuo's words, Kui Ye slapped his thigh and muttered softly, "It's over now."

"What's over?"

"…It's nothing, young man. Everything I said just now is true. It's what I really think. Please convey my endless regret to that young man."

"Actually, I think... Brother Jiang might not care that much..."

"That's good, that's good." After hearing his words, Kui Ye secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other side, in the study.

Jiang Sichen leaned casually on the sandalwood chair with his legs crossed, looking extremely noble.

"Master, your body..." The servant boy stood beside him and asked in a low voice.

"Nothing, where's Acuo?"

"We let that young man walk around in Jieyou Forest at will. Master, do you need us to call him back?"

"No need, it's good to take a walk." Jiang Sichen raised the corners of his lips slightly, "Don't let him know where this place is for the time being..."
