Breaking Army smiled and said, "It’s what I wished for, but I dare not ask."
"Lord, who do you plan to take with you this ti?"
Li Guanyi replied, "Just Changsun and Shaking Light."
Breaking Army’s smile slightly faded: "Why?"
Li Guanyi answered, "The rest must stay here to prepare for the changes in the greater situation. They each have their own matters to handle, and going to Xiyi City this ti, I have a feeling like a storm is coming."
"I’m afraid there will be changes."
"Changsun is practically half a person from Xiyi City, he cannot not go."
"And once the situation changes, if there is any danger, fewer people make it easier to escape."
Breaking Army said, "Then Shaking Light..."
Li Guanyi replied, "I have an agreent with her, even if the world hunts us down, wandering the four corners, I won’t abandon her."
"And over the years, from Guan Yi City to Zhenbei City, from Zhenbei City across thousands of miles to Jiangnan, through the battles in Jiangnan, and then to Central State."
"Finally from Central State to the Western Regions, facing life and death danger not just once, she never left , and helped a lot, often her mystical skills helped solve many troubles..."
Li Guanyi paused in silence, then softly said:
"This body owes too much."
Breaking Army remained silent for a long ti, only answering:
"Shaking Light has mystical skills, traveling with her can indeed be safer."
Li Guanyi laughed freely, clasped his hands slightly in a salute, and said:
"Yes, then, I entrust this city to you."
"My strategist."
Breaking Army paused slightly, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, then firmly pressed down.
Still slightly curled up, unable to suppress it.
Straightened his back, left hand behind his back, pinching the lower back, right hand in front, fist against his lips, coughed once, expression unchanged, said: "Hmm, don’t worry, Lord."
"This place is left to !"
"I will definitely not let you down, Lord!"
Li Guanyi burst into laughter.
Changsun Wuchou, having waited for a long ti, was already anxious, seeing Li Guanyi prepared, naturally took them and set off, in Anxi City, old Siming and Whale Hunter had already left for a long while, and Stick Monk Thirteen also left the day before yesterday.
"The poor monk said, to asure the breadth of the world with these feet, how can I stop here? Fates co and go, fates are born and extinguished."
"Mr. Li, the world is not big, if we have the fate, perhaps we will et again."
Li Guanyi asked where he was going.
The honest monk, wearing a wind-and-sand-proof hat, carrying a bamboo basket with scriptures, a teapot, and teacups, holding a thick as a bowl water and fire rod in his left hand, standing with it vertical in front, answered: "The world is like a sea of suffering, you and I are all just passersby."
"From where you co, to where you go."
"The poor monk..."
"No coming, no going!"
He laughed aloud, turned and walked into the vast desert, chanting the Diamond Sutra.
He wants to asure the earth with his feet, see all things in heaven and earth, save the living beings from all suffering.
"Brother, you and I, the living beings, the three thousand worlds."
"Take care of yourselves."
"Amitabha."
The people of the world, coming and going like dust, familiar people co, then leave, those imrsed in the past awaken, then return, indeed there is no feast that doesn’t disperse.
And after departing from Anxi City, Li Guanyi sat on a cal’s back, listening to the clear, distant sound of the cal bells of the Cal Comrce, only feeling the vastness of the desert, boundless.
Though not far from [Xiyi City], it was neither close.
Along the way saw many towns, constant battles, different tribes fighting, Li Guanyi remained calm in spirit, though he possessed Grandmaster skills, he restrained his aura, actually resembling an ordinary traveling rchant.
On the journey, he also often acted chivalrously, dispelling sand pirates, witnessing the increasingly unstable situation in the Western Regions, finally nearing Xiyi City in August.
Due to the continuous travel, stopping in a small town to rest temporarily.
Changsun Wuchou imdiately wrote a letter to contact Li Zhaowen, informing her they were almost arriving, this area of towns, filled with various complex situations, there were Western Region people, Central Plains people, Tuyuhun people, and Dangxiang people.
Li Guanyi couldn’t sit still, also saw that Shaking Light seed quite interested, simply took so money to wander around the town with Shaking Light, buying things, the silver-haired girl quite liked a kind of baked flatbread here.
It could last a long ti, but ultimately, after consideration, they chose buns instead, only when passing by a marketplace, the silver-haired girl’s steps paused slightly, turning to look in a direction, those clear eyes slightly widened.
Li Guanyi squatted in front of a stall, saw a horn comb, haggled with the old lady, despite her full efforts, she could not maintain the price, defeated by the young man’s rich experiences from years of wandering the world.
Suddenly, Li Guanyi felt soone tugging at the sleeve of his robe.
Li Guanyi paused slightly, saw the silver-haired girl beside him, her robes wide, revealing only a small, fair hand, tugging at Li Guanyi’s sleeve. Having been through life and death with Shaking Light, they had developed a tacit understanding, smiled and said: "Alright."
He took out money, giving the old lady the amount she originally asked for.
Then took the horn comb, placed it in the palm of the girl’s hand, and followed her guidance through several alleys, only to slightly pause, seeing a familiar person.
It was a young man of good background, at the mont appearing haggard, face covered with scars, bearing signs of punishnt, eyes calm, like a subdued wolf, gripping a wooden stick, confronting a group of n, with a little girl behind him.
Li Guanyi saw it was an old acquaintance and said, "If not for Shaking Light, I wouldn’t have thought I could see him again." He deliberately made a sound, letting the people in the alley notice him.
The faces of the n showed vigilance, while the young man froze, eyes wide.
"It’s you..."
Li Guanyi said, "It has been a long ti."
More than two years ago, in Jiangzhou of Chen Country.
As a hostage of the alliance coming to Jiangzhou City, the Princely Heir of the Dangxiang and the Imperial Guard of that ti had once glanced at each other, today here, eting again in this way, he was the eldest son of the Dangxiang King.
The forr hostage.
And the legitimate heir of the Dangxiang Kingdom—
Li Guanyi said:
"Princely Heir of the Dangxiang."
