Demolition

Lu Chen was still full of doubts, but he didn't say any of them.One is Shen Jichuan's half-truth and half-false nonsense, he needs to digest too much and too complicated information, and secondly, his energy is limited.The two of them didn't dare to stay in this weird valley for too long, they kept climbing up until nightfall, and finally turned over to the other side of the mountain before daring to rest. Never move again.

In fact, Lu Chen's physical fitness test in the Yin Xiao class was already one of the best. He just started following the crow in the middle of the night yesterday, had a big battle this morning, and climbed the mountain all day. His nerves have been tense and his energy is really low.But Shen Jichuan didn't know what he ate, and he still had the strength to catch fish in the mountain spring.According to him, it is 'you can't let the little prince go hungry. ', Lu Chen was extremely impressed.

Lu Chen quietly looked at Shen Jichuan in a daze, thinking about what Shen Jichuan said this morning.If he didn't lie, his coming may not be a bad thing.Lu Chen knew his situation, the dark tide was surging in the court, the two princes formed a clique, and the forces of all parties checked and balanced each other. Emperor Ying was scheming and thoughtful, and his own status was special. If it wasn't for Ying Yuan's interference, he would have been unable to survive alone.

He was sure that Ying Yuanzhi was planning something, but no matter what, he had been taking care of him for so many years, Lu Chen would not say it, and was grateful to him in his heart, so he didn't want to care about it.It’s just that he also understands that it’s limited to this. There are some things that only he knows. He hasn’t told anyone. Things in the blood, every heart beat will remind myself.

"Shen Jichuan, what did my father do for you?"

Lu Chen suddenly asked

"Help, save people."

Lu Chen frowned, he wanted to ask Shen Jichuan if he knew that the 300 people who came to protect him would become crows forever, but he always felt that it was too cruel, he hesitated and a flash of inspiration flashed.The person who turned into a crow, isn't that the same village as before?Could it be that they are not the crow people, but also poisoned by Danqiu Daming? But why does a whole village in a small village in the south get poisoned by the rare poison in the north?Are they people or crows?Why do they 'feel' as crows, but appear in human form?No, there are people living in that village!Shen Jichuan found traces of human life!What about those people?What were those people doing during the fight?Or did those people die recently?

Ji Chuan saw Lu Chen staring at him with a tangled face, so he walked over

"Young master, eat some fish."

"En?" Lu Chen looked blank, and Ji Chuan poked him in the face

"You look at me so affectionately, don't you have some unreasonable thoughts about me?"

Lu Chen came to his senses and wanted to hit him with a backhand, but Ji Chuan jumped away with a smile

"Young master, you can ask me anything you want. Looking at you, I'm afraid that you will die of heart palpitations. I won't say what I can't say, but I will know everything else."

Lu Chen seemed to be stuck in the neck, unable to speak.What do you want to ask?How did he know that there was a villain by his side?How could he recognize Taiyi Xuanmen, Lin Jiateng Saber?What did he want himself to do for him?Why is he a crow helping him to kill a crow?Why would my father save a crow?

"The opportunity is rare, what do you want to ask, young master?"

"Yes, I just want to ask too much, and I don't know what to ask."

"Then ask what you want to know the most."

Lu Chen thought for a while and said, "Since you didn't lie, why did you say that you have no father or mother and can only have a name and no surname?"

"Young master really cares about me, what you want to know most is my parents," Ji Chuan joked, but Lu Chen ignored me, "My father doesn't recognize me, so naturally I can't take his surname."

"What about your mother?"

"My mother doesn't even have a name, how can I have her last name?"

"Why doesn't your father recognize you?"

"Young master, you are not a three-year-old child, don't you even know this? Why does a man deny his son?"

"You, aren't you his own?"

Ji Chuan didn't expect his answer, he was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed out loud

"What are you laughing at?" Lu Chen was annoyed

"Hey, young master, you should read less drama books in the future, what are you thinking about?"

Lu Chen was so angry that he threw a stone at him, and Ji Chuan grabbed him

"My mother didn't marry him, so naturally he can't recognize me as a son."

"Your father doesn't recognize you, and your uncle still suspects that you have that seal in your hand?"

"It's not a seal, but it's also a very important thing. My father is only one of my sons, and the one born in the other room is also his own. If you don't want me, who can you look for?"

"..."

"Young master, is there anything else you want to ask?"

Lu Chen pondered for a moment, then spoke softly

"Tell me about my father."

Ji Chuan was silent for a while

"I haven't seen your father."

Lu Chen was dumbfounded

"Then you said he saved you."

"You don't need to meet me to save me, young master, some people's choices can determine the fate of others."

"Then why do you have my father's stuff?"

"It was passed on to me by someone else."

"Who?"

"I can't tell you."

Lu Chen wanted to grab his collar, it was very important who was the last person to see his father, but he was at a loss now

"Why? You, you are a crow, and my father is a crowbreaker."

Ji Chuan shook his head

"You can't just look at the surface of many things. You still have a lot to learn, young man."

"Is this something you can't say?"

"I know very little, and most of it is just speculation. Telling you will only affect your judgment. Besides, this is your family matter, and it should not be relayed by an outsider."

"But where shall I find out?"

"Young master, you have to ask yourself, everything you want to know is in its proper place, you just ignored it."

"I……"

Lu Chen wanted to ask again, but Ji Chuan took off his robe and covered him, covering his eyes with his hands

"Question time is over, it's time to rest, go to sleep."

Lu Chen didn't resist, but really felt sleepy.

'Truth', he thought dazedly.

Before dawn, Lu Chen was shaken awake, and the two continued on their way, finally seeing a small town before noon.You need ID documents to enter the city, and all of them are left at the inn. Lu Chen wanted to take the wooden card, but was stopped by Ji Chuan

“Told you not to eat the free lunch”

"Then how do you get in?"

Ji Chuan took out two documents from his pocket as if by magic, Lu Chen raised his eyebrows

"It's always right to have a few extra copies of the experience of escaping for your life. Don't be afraid of losing it. If you lose it, there will be more."

Lu Chen didn't ask him where he got these. He is not afraid of losing the document. He is an official of the imperial court. Anyone who wants to use it falsely has to weigh whether his life is enough. It's just that those documents are more troublesome. One more free lunch please.

In fact, Lu Chen didn't want to use it either. Shen Jichuan guessed right. With this once, Ying Yuanzhi could grasp his whereabouts. Yesterday's experience caused them to deviate too much from their original route, and it was impossible to go back. If you make a mistake, you will make a mistake. Fortunately, the general direction remains the same, but if you use the wooden card Ying Yuanzhi again like this, you will definitely become suspicious.Lu Chen vaguely felt that the experience last night was not simple.

The small town the two arrived in a day and two nights is a famous water town in the south of the Yangtze River. The south of the Yangtze River has been rich since ancient times. Sometimes I just want to find a restaurant to fill my stomach.

Ji Chuan and Xiao Er were finalizing the meal, Lu Chen was thinking about things blankly, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice

"...I didn't do it on purpose. I'll go back and pay you back, plus a month's worth of breakfast."

"Ye Ji?"

"A Chen!"

It was Jiang Ye and Ye Ji who came.

"Three... Well, Master Ying ordered us to come and investigate some things. Why are you here? I heard that you were sent to the north."

Ye Ji sat down and explained to Lu Chen, but his eyes were fixed on Ji Chuan, and Jiang also looked at him.Lu Chen felt embarrassed, how should he explain Shen Jichuan's identity?He was ordered to surrender the crow, but he still brought a crow with him?

"Well, this is Shen Jichuan, my distant cousin, who came to visit relatives..."

The four stared at each other, no one believed what he said, stiff and embarrassed, Lu Chen secretly scolded Shen Jichuan for being a goose, and changed the subject boldly

"This is Ye Ji and Jiang Ye, my classmates."

Now Shen Jichuan smiled generously, stood up and grabbed Ye Ji's hand

"It turned out to be Brother Chen's good friend. It's a pleasure to meet you."

Jiang Ye stared at Shen Jichuan with more gloomy eyes, but Ye Ji was a little panicked

"Hello, brother Shen."

I don't know if Shen Jichuan did it on purpose, he didn't have the slightest sense of being suspected of his identity, he talked to Ye Ji, Ye Ji was originally a lively character, and it was a joy to be teased by him like this. In other words, Jiang also twitched the corner of his mouth, Lu Chen had no choice but to play dumb.

"Our brother Chen has caused trouble for everyone."

"Don't bother, don't bother, Ah Chen is the executive king, and we usually rely on him to help us."

"Zhi Jinwu? Little brother, from the countryside, we only know that he is a small official, but I don't know what this official is called!"

"Zhi Jinwu is not a petty official, he..."

"Ye Ji," Jiang Ye interrupted, Ye Ji looked at him puzzled, but he looked at Ji Chuan

"I'm sorry, Brother Shen, we have important business to do, so we can't stay any longer. Sit down slowly, let's take our leave first."

After speaking, he dragged the wronged Ye Ji away

"Xiao Ye, I haven't even had a sip of tea yet."

"What kind of tea to drink? I think your mind is full of water."

"What happened to me?"

"Speak less and do more, how did I tell you?"

"That's Ah Chen's cousin! Ah Chen has few relatives, why should I talk to him more?"

Ye Ji angrily stopped talking to others, and Jiang also sneered in his heart, yes, there are few relatives in the first place, and out of nowhere came a cousin who spoke a lot of northern dialect.

After the two left here, Ji Chuan sincerely apologized

"Did I get you into trouble?"

Lu Chen frowned and shook his head, Ji Chuan was even more embarrassed when he saw this

"They must know I'm a fake."

"……fine."

Lu Chen answered casually, absent-mindedly, he had smelled the smell just now in Lianle Lane, those moss... At that time, he thought it was the marks left by some iron objects, but now thinking about it, there is still a familiar smell in it. Jia knife.Why?What did Ye Ji do in Lianle Lane?Are those white lights in the middle of the night related to him?Ye Ji, Jiang Ye, this town is not far from that uninhabited village.Is it because I think too much?

Lu Chen's ecstasy startled Ji Chuan, he poked the other's arm tentatively, Lu Chen regained his senses

"what?"

Ji Chuan breathed a sigh of relief, pretending to ask unintentionally

"Will those two people go back and read your book?"

"No, they are...they won't meddle in this kind of business."

Lu Chen was upset and wanted to leave here quickly, but Ji Chuan came over curiously

"You are Zhi Jinwu? Why are you still sent out?"

Lu Chen didn't expect him to know this, and he didn't want to explain further.

"The higher-ups tell me to leave, so I'll leave, it doesn't matter so much."

Ji Chuan smiled and picked up the tea

"Does it refer to the owner of the wooden plaque?"

Lu Chen didn't refute when he heard the words, and looked at him, Ji Chuan didn't panic

"I haven't lied anymore, does the young master still need to be so guarded against me?"

"This is the part I don't want to tell you." Lu Chen looked away and said lightly

"Being willing to hand over such an important thing to you must be of great use to you, right?"

"You have a lot of knowledge, so you can guess this kind of trivial matter."

"Young master has raised me high. Even if I read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles, I won't be able to guess people's hearts."

Lu Chen got used to this man's routine and ignored him, and Ji Chuan didn't bother him either.The food in the south of the Yangtze River was sweet, and Lu Chen was already hungry, so he ate with relish.The two of them filled their stomachs with the remnants of the wind and cloud, and then went on the road again.
