Chapter 545 Long time no see
Jinglan immediately became very anxious and said, "You...you must not be impulsive..."
The driver seemed to recognize Chang Lun and said, "It's Master Chang. What are you doing here so late at night?"
Chang Lun said, "So you recognize me. You can give me a ride. My legs and feet are a bit inconvenient and I can't walk today."
The driver said, "Master Chang, who is by your side, is an unfathomable master of the Force. There are a few people in Jinyang City who don't know him. Unfortunately, I have some urgent business to attend to today, so I can't take you there."
I could only hear the clattering footsteps approaching the carriage, and Chang Lun's voice was getting closer and closer: "Just give me a ride, it won't take up much of your time, and besides, I'm not riding in your carriage for nothing."
With a "pop" sound, Chu Xiaomu actually broke off a large piece of the stool in the carriage. Jinglan saw veins popping out on his forehead and fire in his eyes. She quickly stretched out her hands to hold Chu Xiaomu's left hand and said softly, "Brother Xiaomu, bear with it for a few more days..."
Chang Lun heard the noise inside the car and said, "So there are other friends in the car. That's great. I'll have someone to accompany me on the journey."
The driver was obviously angry and said, "Master Chang, you don't understand what I'm saying, right? Didn't I tell you that I have something urgent to do today? Why are you still nagging me?!"
Chang Lun said, "I don't care what your urgent business is. I have a golden order given by the city lord, which allows me to requisition anyone's carriage and horses in Jinyang City! How dare you disobey the city lord's order and not allow me to ride in a carriage?!" Chu Xiaomu heard one or two slight tinkling sounds coming from Chang Lun's body, and he probably took out the city lord's golden order from his arms.
The driver said, "The city lord's golden order doesn't work on me. Do you know who sent me?"
Chu Xiaomu felt a trace of spiritual power coming from Jinglan's hands, and his mind gradually calmed down. He thought that Chang Lun was so shameless today, which was very different from his previous behavior, and it was obvious that he was targeting him.
It seems that Jin Lier has figured out something. She really did everything she could to prevent me from getting close to Xuanying!
The driver had a bad temper. If he really said Xuanying's name, things would only get worse. If Chang insisted on riding in the car, he would have to be restrained or beaten to death.
Chang Lun said angrily: "Even the Venerable is very respectful in front of the old city lord. Who do you think you are? How dare you say such nonsense? Don't you want to live?!" As he spoke, he had already walked to a few feet in front of the carriage.
The driver slapped the horse and shouted, "Get out of the way, or I'll kill you!"
However, the carriage did not move forward at all. It was obvious that there were people in front and the horses were afraid to move forward.
Chang Lun said: "Could it be that there is a traitor from Jinyang City or a spy from Chisha Country in your carriage?!" With a whoosh, they rushed directly towards the carriage.
Chu Xiaomu was about to make a move when he suddenly heard the sound of a sharp blade breaking through the air from behind the carriage, and then it hit a wooden pillar not far away with a thud. Chang Lun leaned aside, and it was obvious that the sharp blade was flying towards him.
Then a man flew forward and fought fiercely with Chang Lun.
The man shouted in a deep voice, "Hurry up!" and the driver started off.
Chu Xiaomu hated Chang Lun so much that when the carriage passed by him, he used his earth-phase spiritual power to attack him through the carriage. Chang Lun's breathing suddenly became heavy, and his movements were obviously much slower.
The carriage turned many corners and finally arrived at a dense forest. It traveled for nearly half an hour before finally stopping.
The driver opened the door, invited Chu Xiaomu and the other two to get out, and said with a bow, "You three should go forward along this road for three miles. There will be a stone house there, and someone will be waiting for you inside." Then he pointed to a small path ahead.
The road for the carriage was about six or seven feet wide, but when it reached here it suddenly narrowed into a small road about two feet wide, and the carriage could no longer move forward.
Xiaoying looked at a path that led straight into the depths of the dark forest. She couldn't help feeling scared and called out softly, "Brother Xiaomu..."
Chu Xiaomu pulled his hand over and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
The driver took a lantern down from the side of the carriage, lit it, and handed it to Chu Xiaomu, saying, "Lin Jinwei, go over quickly, don't keep him waiting for too long."
Chu Xiaomu nodded, picked up the lantern and walked along the path. He thought Xuanying was already a powerful figure in Jinyang City, but he didn't expect him to act so cautiously. This was too cautious.
After walking about three miles, a strange-looking stone house appeared in front of them. This stone house was different from the common houses in Jinyang City. The roof was crooked, which was somewhat similar to the house he saw in the pine and bamboo garden when he was waiting for Xuanying that day. Chu Xiaomu thought that this was probably built in the style of the houses in Xuanying's hometown.
There was a dim light coming from the room, and it was obvious that someone was inside. However, what Chu Xiaomu found unbelievable was that he could not hear the breathing of the person in the room even though they were only a dozen feet away.
He knew Xuanying must be nearby, so he was not worried. He walked to the front of the house with a lantern and gently opened the door.
The man in the room had long hair and black clothes, sword-like eyebrows and thin lips. He turned his head and his eyes were as cold as the underworld. It was Xuanying, whom he had not seen for several years.
Sisi was actually there too, standing quietly beside him, her face as calm as water.
When Xuanying saw Chu Xiaomu coming in, the coldness in his eyes turned into a strange and excited light, and he asked, "Are you Xiaomu?"
Chu Xiaomu stretched out his hand to take off the mask on his face and said with a smile: "Xuanying, long time no see."
