Shangxian Cultivation Handbook

Chapter 43: Chess Meets Opponent, Prosperous Brocade Book

There is always a huge gap between a prison cell and a residence.Before entering the palace, Shen Yuan was at least a son of a wealthy family, with high-quality clothing, food, housing and transportation, let alone after entering the palace.He followed Gu Zhiyuan, how could there be any reason for him to suffer?

Now that he is in a dirty and messy cell, he feels somewhat resistant no matter what.I thought Song Nanchu was the same, but when he turned around, he found that he was sitting cross-legged on the pile of straw with great interest, looking at him provocatively.

Shen Yuan walked over with downcast eyes, and sat down on the haystack all of a sudden: "Let's talk."

"What are you talking about? Where do you start?" Song Nanchu began to play dumb as soon as he entered the cell, "What does Shen Daxia want to say next?"

Shen Yuan took a deep breath, then turned his head and smiled at Song Nanchu: "Tell me how you knew I would be in the crowd, why you let me into the cell, and... tell me who you are...!" He was going to wait for Song Nanchu As soon as he finished speaking, he escaped from prison and left.

"Okay." Song Nanchu adjusted his sitting posture, and then raised a finger, "First of all, you saved me from the arrester three days ago...well, let alone whether you saw the murderer or not. Because of your desperate efforts to save me, I guess you, a foreigner, came to find me specially."

Shen Yuan smiled: "The final conclusion is good, but the analysis in the middle was wrong. I didn't try my best to save you."

"Ahem, no matter what, you are here for me. Since I was dragged to the court under the eyes of everyone, you will not be ignorant. If you know, you will definitely come to save me." Song Nanchu waved his hand Pointing, and then stretched out the second finger, "Second, going to the cell is an expedient measure, since this has happened to me, I can't let it go, right? Didn't I say it in the end? Song Nanchu."

For Song Nanchu's remarks, Shen Yuan felt that he could only half-believe.

"You want to take care of this?" Shen Yuan scanned the dilapidated prison cell up and down, pointing at the big rat that had just crawled past the two of them crazily, "In this place? Forget it, I'd better escape from prison." As he said that, he subconsciously went to grab the sword on the left, but it was empty.After thinking about it, his sword was taken away when he entered the cell.

Song Nanchu looked at Shen Yuan with a smile: "Sit down, don't worry." While talking, he patted the empty haystack beside him, signaling Shen Yuan to sit down.

"..." Even in adversity, Shen Yuan has only met one person in his life who is still so calm and composed - Gu Zhiyuan.Fortunately, there is one more person——Song Nanchu.From some aspects, Song Nanchu has a good opinion of Gu Zhiyuan.

He took advantage of the opportunity to sit down, crossed his legs, and sat very upright: "What are you going to do?"

"Wait." Song Nanchu took out a note from his pocket, "This is the note I received on the day Miss Ling died, please meet me in the woods outside the city."

Shen Yuan took the note, and it really said 'See you in the woods outside the city'.He flicked the note: "Who did you offend? You want to hurt you like this." Although it was a question, for some reason, he wanted to laugh.What a 'vain young master', he's so unlikable!

As if seeing Shen Yuan's thoughts, Song Nanchu hummed, and said, "Naturally, I can't see such a famous person. Oh, people nowadays have such vicious hearts, and they don't like others. Alas, famous people It's dangerous~" He said with a hurt expression, which looked funny.Shen Yuan couldn't hold back for a moment, and burst out laughing.

Song Nanchu turned his head to look at Shen Yuan, and laughed at himself.

How long has it been?How long has it been since he smiled like this?Five or six years or longer?He can't remember.For many, many years, he wandered from the capital to Jiangbei alone, and followed the refugees from Jiangbei to Jiangnan.He robbed a place to sleep with a beggar, robbed a morsel of food with a dog, and was chased and called 'thief'...

I have suffered a lot, and now I don't feel anything.It's just that in those hard days, he was always alone, smiling hypocritically and full of lies, but he had never sat in the haystack with anyone like this, talking and laughing happily.Even though his reputation in Jiangnan has gradually become more violent this year, few people really admire him, and there are many people who make things difficult for him.

Shen Yuan, Shen Yuan... Song Nanchu suppressed her smile, if you have no purpose, for the sake of saving me, maybe I will treat you as a friend.

The two chatted in the cell, saying everything but not revealing their old background, it was purely for mutual entertainment.Anyway, waiting, why worry about it?

As night fell, the two people who were halfway through the conversation suddenly stopped in tacit understanding, looked at each other and sat quietly on the haystack.

After about half a stick of incense had passed, there was a sudden noise outside the cell.

The tips of Shen Yuan's ears moved, and he vaguely heard the sound of someone walking cautiously outside.

"Remember to protect me when the time comes!" Song Nanchu hid behind Shen Yuan and said with a smile.

"..." Shen Yuan pursed his lips, glanced at Song Nanchu who was hiding behind him from the corner of his eye, and lowered his voice, "'Young Master Void' has good ears." As he spoke, he pushed Song Nanchu away, and jumped a step back , a sword flew over from the outside and stuck in the place where the two had just stood.

Shen Yuan looked at the sword shining with cold light, and through the moonlight, he saw himself on the sword.

In the dead of night, murder and arson are the best!

Sighing a little, the chain of the door was split open, and a man in black walked in.Looking at the figure, Shen Yuan felt that it was a little different from the murderer's figure that day.The murderer is a master of lightness kung fu, and his legs are very natural, especially his calf looks muscular.And the man in black in front of him was thin, with a murderous look all over his body, and his calf muscles were not very developed.

Seeing someone coming in, Song Nanchu didn't care about his face, and ran towards Shen Yuan in a staggered manner, all he could think of was 'seek Shen Yuan to save his life'!

"Who is your Excellency?" Seeing Song Nanchu running towards him, Shen Yuan quickly ran towards him, and when he met him, he immediately pulled Song Nanchu behind him, "It's against the rules to bring a big knife into the cell."

Song Nanchu was so anxious, he shouted at the top of his voice: "You don't hit people directly, what nonsense are you talking about? What's not in line with the rules? People come to kill me, who cares about the broken rules?!"

The man in black on the opposite side paused, jumped up, and the knife slashed down.

Subconsciously, Shen Yuan caught the white blade with both hands, and reacted quickly after catching the knife, raised his right foot and swept towards the waist of the man in black.The man in black let go of the knife and spun around to avoid Shen Yuan's sweep, and then held the handle of the knife again with his left hand. With the force of the fall, he cut down a few more points, pushing Shen Yuan back a little. Step into Song Nanchu's arms.Song Nanchu was also clever, put his hands on Shen Yuan's shoulders, stepped back with his right foot against the wall, and managed not to step back.

Meeting an opponent for the first time, Shen Yuan inexplicably felt a little excited.But he didn't have a common sword by his side, otherwise he would really have to fight the man in black for several rounds.

The noise in the cell was very loud, and with the guard who fell at the door of the cell, the guards who came to change shifts were shocked and rushed into the cell one after another.

As soon as they entered the door, they saw this scene and rushed up one after another.

Seeing that there were more people, the man in black kicked Shen Yuan's chest, took a knife and chopped open the stake on the window of the cell, and escaped from the window.

A fierce fight is over.
