Chapter 25: Journey
Three days passed in a flash.
During these three days, Chen Heng did not do much, but simply visited those people he was familiar with.
In the past half year, thanks to his deliberate efforts in making friends, he got to know quite a few people, so these three days were fully scheduled.
On the third day, early in the morning, when it was just light outside, Chen Heng got up and walked outside.
Outside the manor, in an open space, someone was already waiting there.
"Sir, you are here."
Ji Te looked respectful as he looked at Chen Heng with great respect.
"Uncle Kit, you are here too."
Chen Heng smiled, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "I'll leave it to you."
"It doesn't matter."
Kit shook his head: "If it weren't for you, I don't know what would happen now."
"Now you are leaving, no matter what I say, I will see you off."
At this point, he smiled again: "In fact, it's not just me."
"Upon hearing the news that you were leaving, my five children and my old friends all said they would come and escort you."
"Is it?"
Chen Heng smiled, and was unusually happy when he heard this: "Please thank them for me."
Kit smiled and agreed.
Therefore, it was still early and the people around had not arrived yet.
The two of them chatted here, talking about this and that.
After a while, accompanied by the neighing of horse hooves, a sound of crisp footsteps came from afar.
Butler White also rushed over with some people.
Of course, these people did not surprise Chen Heng.
What really surprised Chen Heng was the middle-aged man behind Butler White.
"Father, why are you here too?"
He looked at Baron Kaisen, walked forward quickly, and spoke with a respectful expression.
In front, Baron Kaisen was wearing a gray robe. He looked a little unwell at the moment, with dark circles under his eyes, as if he did not sleep well last night.
"I want to see you off."
Looking at Chen Heng, Baron Kaisen shook his head and said this.
How can parents help but worry when their children are about to leave?
He didn't sleep well last night, and even had the urge to keep Chen Heng and not let him leave.
But in the end, he still resisted the impulse and controlled himself rationally.
"This is a long journey, remember to be careful about everything."
He looked at Chen Heng, and finally sighed softly, speaking like this.
"I see."
Chen Heng smiled and nodded, his face still looking relaxed.
After just a moment's thought, he walked to the front, in front of Baron Kaisen, looked at his figure, and said seriously: "I'm afraid I won't be back in the short term when I leave this time."
"I once heard that white birds in distant places will miss their hometowns, and even when they are away from home, they will miss their loved ones. Now I think I can understand this feeling..."
"I hope that you can take good care of yourself while I am not around, and that I can still have a pleasant breakfast with you when I come back..."
He spoke softly, his face focused and serious, with a kind of sincerity.
Listening to his words, White and others around him couldn't help but be moved and touched .
Baron Kaisen's eyes also turned red.
He opened his mouth, looked at Chen Heng, and wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing. He just patted Chen Heng's shoulder hard and gave him careful instructions.
"be careful."
He instructed earnestly, his eyes reddening a little: "No matter what, come back safely."
"I will."
Chen Heng smiled and answered seriously.
After a while, Chen Heng stood up and prepared to set off.
He took a carriage and left the place.
In the carriage, Kit and others accompanied him, either driving him or acting as his guide, and were responsible for his life for a long time afterwards.
Only Baron Kaisen was left there.
The morning breeze blew slowly, lifting his sleeves and making him feel a little cool.
He stood there in silence for a long time, and finally could only let out a sigh.
Just at this moment, a roar came from the distance, as if someone was training there.
"what sound?"
Hearing the voice, Baron Kaisen frowned and asked subconsciously.
"It's Sir Ormando who is leading the guards in training." Someone answered.
"asshole!!"
Baron Kaisen suddenly became angry: "His brother is about to go on a long journey, and as an elder brother, now that he has woken up, he doesn't even come to see him off!!"
He got angry for a moment, then stormed off, rushing in the direction where the sound came from.
Of course, Chen Heng was not clear about this.
At this moment, he was sitting in the carriage, thinking alone.
Leaving Baron Kaisen's side has both advantages and disadvantages.
There is no need to say much about the disadvantages. After leaving Baron Kaisen's side, if something happens there, Chen Heng will not be able to react.
But the possibility of this is very low.
In the past six months, most of the people around Baron Kaisen have been bribed by Chen Heng and are more or less inclined towards him.
Baron Kaisen's health was also good, and he didn't look like someone who was about to die.
As for Omando, there is no need to even consider him.
Maybe without Chen Heng around, he would let himself go even more and make things even worse.
The benefits of leaving Baron Kaisen are also very obvious.
First of all, it gives me the opportunity to see a bigger world.
This world is very big. The territory of the Duchy of Kuhn alone is very vast. Baron Kaisen is just an ordinary small noble. He is not worth mentioning at all in Kuhn.
Although Baron Kaisen's territory is not small, it is limited after all. If he remains trapped here, it will not be conducive to future development.
Now it is an excellent opportunity to leave early and go to Kuhn, the most prosperous city in the Principality of Kuhn, to study.
It is not only beneficial to Chen Heng's future development, but also very helpful for him to obtain points.
That's the benefit.
Of course, how much benefit can be obtained depends on Chen Heng's own methods.
When he thought of this, he stopped thinking about these questions and just turned around and looked forward.
Before they knew it, they came to a narrow road.
The surroundings are very small and cannot accommodate many people.
Looking at the terrain in front of him, Chen Heng sat up silently, and subconsciously stretched out one arm to the side and grasped the sword.
He was ready and prepared for any unexpected event.
However, until I passed this place, I didn't encounter any accidents.
Looking at the canyon behind them that they had already walked through, Chen Heng couldn't help but shake his head secretly.
It seems that although Omando looks like a big fool, he is not stupid enough to actually bring people to intercept and kill.
When he left just now, he was already prepared for Ormando to lead his men to attack and kill him, but in the end he did not wait for that.
"pity……"
He sighed softly as the thought flashed through his mind.
If Omando really dared to come here and kill him directly, then he would have a reason to take action and directly destroy Omando.
By then, things will be much easier .
It’s a pity that he might not have thought of this, or he might have thought of it but didn’t have the courage to do it, and ultimately did not come.
But it doesn't matter.
Anyway, as time goes by, the results are the same.
Sitting calmly in , Chen Heng's face was calm, and this thought flashed through his mind.
