#291 - You are actually a riddle man
Half an hour later, inside a certain inn in Yuanzhou City.
Wei Changtian looked at Li Wutong, who was sitting upright at the table, with a helpless expression.
"Princess, you don't need to watch me here, I won't run away."
"Young Master Wei, I'm not at ease."
Li Wutong replied straightforwardly, "You don't have to mind me, just do whatever you need to do."
"I want to sleep."
Wei Changtian was amused and annoyed when he heard this, "You want to watch that too?"
"Yes."
Li Wutong nodded, "Young Master, feel free to sleep, I will wake you up when we depart tomorrow morning."
"..."
Fine, watch if you want to.
Wei Changtian glanced at Li Wutong and stopped talking, starting to take off his clothes.
He didn't have the habit of sleeping naked, and wore an inner shirt under his black robe.
However, this "crude" scene still gave Li Wutong a great shock.
She forcibly resisted the urge to flee, turning her head away with a red face, and waited for a long time before secretly glancing at the bed with the corner of her eye.
Wei Changtian had already covered himself with the quilt and lay down with his back to her, only showing the back of his head.
"..."
The already faint moonlight sprinkled slightly on the edge of the bed, as if forming a layer of white frost.
Li Wutong sat there for a while, then suddenly stood up on tiptoe, gently walked to the bed, and slowly stretched out a hand...
"Pa!"
Wei Changtian suddenly got up, and at the same time, grabbed Li Wutong's wrist tightly with a gloomy expression.
"What are you doing?"
"I..."
Li Wutong was startled and subconsciously wanted to pull her hand back.
However, she didn't succeed, and instead swayed, almost falling into Wei Changtian's arms.
"You continue to sleep, I promise I won't disturb you again!"
"Hmph! It better be."
Wei Changtian snorted coldly, then lay down again, ignoring Li Wutong's expression behind him.
Of course, with such a woman with unclear intentions beside him, he certainly wouldn't be so carefree as to really sleep.
Anyway, it was less than two hours until dawn, so he might as well lie down and rest for a while.
"Da da, da da..."
The bright moon startles magpies in other branches, and the clear wind chirps cicadas in the middle of the night.
The distant and dense footsteps echoed in his ears, and Wei Changtian knew that this was the Da Feng army taking full control of Yuanzhou City.
The Liangzhou army and Wen Wen chose to "betray the enemy", while the Shuzhou army and Liang Zhen chose to feign surrender and fight to the death...
When the Shuzhou soldiers were about to be annihilated, he suddenly appeared, not only scaring away Meng Shi, but also killing a third-rank deputy general of Da Feng.
Finally, he reached a certain deal with the Da Feng princess, in order to save Liang Zhen and his daughter's lives...
There were too many witnesses to what happened tonight, so it was impossible to hide it, and it was estimated that it would be known to the world in three days at most.
By then, many secrets, including the Starry Night Saber Sheath, would no longer be able to be kept hidden.
But these things are not a big problem.
The thing that Wei Changtian was most concerned about at the moment was whether or not to go to Fengyuan.
Although there was Li Wutong watching him right now, he couldn't use the "Bixing Talisman" for the time being.
But it would take about ten days to go to Fengyuan, and Wei Changtian didn't believe that he would be monitored all the time for such a long time.
Therefore, it was still very easy to slip away.
The only point of entanglement was what Li Wutong wanted him to do, and what reward she could give him.
Li Wutong hadn't said anything about these two things so far, and it was estimated that he would have to wait until he went to Fengyuan to find out.
But since this princess is a royal daughter, then she should be very generous...
So... should I go?
"Hmm, is he asleep?"
Suddenly, a soft murmur floated into his ears, which was obviously Li Wutong's monologue.
Wei Changtian continued to maintain his previous posture without moving, and after a long while, he heard a faint footstep again.
Judging from the direction of the footsteps, Li Wutong should have gone from behind him to the front.
The refreshing fragrance lingered at the tip of his nose, which smelled quite good.
If the fragrance on Lu Jingyao's body was like a peony, Yang Liushi's was like a peony, Xu Qingwan's was like a camellia, and You Jia's was like a peach blossom.
Then Li Wutong should be like a winter plum, with a sense of awe and nobility of seeking spring in the snow.
"He's really asleep..."
Another monologue, with a hint of lightness in her tone compared to just now.
"He's only at the fifth rank, why can he kill a third rank?"
"Even General Meng said that he was no match for him..."
"How strange..."
"He must have a treasure on him, or he has learned some amazing supernatural power..."
"I really want to learn it, but he will definitely not teach me..."
"Alas..."
Hearing this sigh, Wei Changtian almost laughed out loud.
I have to say that this woman is quite self-aware.
But the pity is that the reason why he can kill second-rank and third-rank is not because he has mastered any supernatural power, but because he has a system.
Besides that, perhaps only when he has practiced the Moon Picking Sword to a certain level will he have the possibility of defeating the upper three ranks.
Hmm... Should I not wait for Qin Zhengqiu to "test the waters" first, and just start practicing directly?
But what if I go crazy?
Huh? I have a system! I can just buy a prop to cure it when the time comes!
Wonderful, I am so witty...
Wei Changtian was thinking wildly in his mind, and the soft murmur that had been paused for a while also sounded again in his ears.
However, this time Li Wutong's voice was a bit distressed.
"I don't know if he can beat that thing..."
"I hope he can, but we have to try anyway..."
"There are less than three months left..."
"But what if he doesn't agree..."
"Oh, if I had known, I shouldn't have let those two people go, it would be great to threaten him with them..."
"If it really doesn't work, give him that thing?"
"It seems that this is the only way..."
"..."
The murmuring stopped abruptly, and as a soft sound of closing the window fell, there was no movement in the room.
And Wei Changtian shouted in his heart at this time -
Damn!
I hate riddle-makers the most!
It sounds like Li Wutong is preparing to let him clean up something, and is also preparing to give him a good thing as a reward.
But what exactly are these two things, you should say it!
Do you have to play dumb even when talking to yourself?
I'm convinced!
After complaining frantically for a while, Wei Changtian didn't get up immediately to ask clearly.
After all, Li Wutong had just mentioned a time limit of "three months", which should refer to the trouble she encountered must be resolved within three months.
As everyone knows, the price of a bottle of mineral water can be vastly different in a supermarket and in the desert.
So, if he really decides to go to Fengyuan, then he can completely delay it for a while in order to get a better "price".
Hehe, I have the potential to be a black-hearted businessman!
Wei Changtian was quite proud of his little calculations, and at the same time prepared to enter the dreamland to start practicing the Moon Picking Sword.
In the distance, various shouts were looming, and large flags embroidered with the word "Feng" were slowly erected on the four city towers in the southeast, northwest, and north.
In the fifteenth year of Tianji, on April 19th, at dawn.
Yuanzhou City was broken, and the Da Feng army of 500,000 entered the city, without slaughtering a single commoner.
