Chapter 55: Return Soon
Meng Ruochen regrets it to death now.
Watching Shen Lang staggering down the mountain, I really wanted to throw a few darts at him and kill him!
Why do I have to make a bet with him?
Now it’s done. Not only will you lose face, but you will also have to agree to one condition!
"You little brat, if I meet you again, you'll be in trouble!" Meng Ruochen looked at Shen Lang's gradually disappearing figure, her autumn-water eyes curved into a pair of crescents, and she turned around and went back.
It’s been ten years, just after leaving the mountains, I returned to the mountains.
At this time, Shen Lang was very happy walking on the mountain road. Although he didn't know who Meng Ruochen, who looked like a fairy in the painting, was, he got a huge advantage if she gave in to him on one condition.
When I am happy in the future, I will come to Qingfeng Martial Arts College to find her and ask her to fulfill her promise. I can just ask her at that time!
"Husband!"
Before I even reached the dormitory, Qingsi ran over with an anxious look on her face: “Something happened!”
Shen Lang was stunned: "What's wrong? What happened? Tell me slowly!"
Qingsi handed the note in her hand to Shen Lang. When he opened it, he saw two words written on it.
"Come back quickly!"
"Where did this note come from?" Shen Lang flipped through it.
"Uncle's carrier pigeon!" Qingsi said with some sweat on his forehead.
She was really anxious.
Because my uncle would never write to me unless something happened!
Now that the letter is being delivered by a carrier pigeon , something must have gone wrong.
Shen Lang nodded and looked through the note carefully. Apart from these two words, there was nothing else. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are you sure it was written by your uncle? Is the handwriting okay? "
"No problem, I recognize uncle's handwriting!" Qingsi nodded, looked at Shen Lang's puzzled expression, and said: "What's wrong , husband, is there something wrong?"
Shen Lang touched his chin: "According to your uncle's character, if something really happened, would he let you go back and take the risk?"
Qingsi was stunned...
She knew her uncle's character very well. He was a loyal and righteous man. Because he had no children, he was particularly fond of her and treated her like his own daughter.
If the city lord election was not too dangerous, her uncle would not have let her leave Baiyun City, the place under his jurisdiction.
"Husband, do you mean this letter is fake?" Qingsi looked at the note in Shen Lang's hand and said, "But, the handwriting is indeed uncle's notes. I can recognize it even if it turns into ashes!"
Shen Lang pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go talk to Dean Shangguan!" After that, he put the note away and went to find Dean Shangguan with Qingsi.
At this time, Dean Shangguan and Muchen were chatting in the pavilion.
"Teacher Muchen, Dean Shangguan!" Shen Lang stepped forward, bowed and greeted them.
Mu Chen and Shangguan Yu nodded, and then Shangguan Yu said, "Is there something wrong?" His eyes looked at Shen Lang and the anxious Qingsi behind him.
"Dean, can you please talk to me for a moment?" Shen Lang nodded.
"Okay!" Shangguan Yu nodded, bowed to Mu Chen, followed Shen Lang out of the pavilion, and came to an empty corridor. He asked, "What happened?"
Shen Lang handed the note in his hand to Shangguan Yu, and Qingsi told Shangguan Yu the origin of the note.
After hearing this, Shangguan Yu looked solemn and looked at Qingsi: "What do you mean?"
"I want to go back!" Qingsi said.
"I'm afraid there's something fishy about this!" Shangguan Yu said.
"Then I also want to go back and take a look, so that Qingsi can feel at ease!" Qingsi said again: "Uncle has been so kind to me, even if it means going through mountains of swords and seas of fire, I will go back!"
"Okay!" Shangguan Yu nodded and handed the note back to Shen Lang: "Let's set off now!" After that, he turned around and said goodbye to Muchen.
"You go and notify Chang Rumo and Mingyue, I'll contact Chen Luo and Chen Buyong, and let's meet at the dormitory entrance later!" Shen Lang spoke, Qingsi nodded, and then the two separated.
Half an hour later, Chang Rumo and Mingyue appeared at the dormitory door. Chen Luo was still talking with Lang Taiyi. Chen Buyong was dragged out of the dormitory by Shen Lang. He was full of complaints at first, but after learning about Qingsi's incident, he immediately shouted that he would take the lead if anything happened.
Dean Shangguan and Muchen explained their intention to leave. Although Muchen was very puzzled, he still agreed and notified the students at the foot of the mountain to prepare the three carriages.
"We left in a hurry this time, so you must stay a little longer next time you come!" Mu Chen stood at the gate of the academy and spoke to Shen Lang and others.
"When the time comes, take out the fine wine from your private collection and let me have a taste of it!" Dean Shangguan said with a smile.
"Of course, of course!" Mu Chen smiled brightly.
…
"Buyong, after I finish my studies at the academy, I will go to Baiyun City to find you!" Zhuge Xiao looked at Chen Buyong reluctantly.
"Well, I'll wait for you to come and be my bride!" Chen Buyong nodded and hugged Zhuge Xiao into his arms: "When you miss me, look at the jade pendant!"
"Hmm!" Zhuge Xiao's eyes were a little blurry.
We have just started and we have to separate. Although this day will come, it comes too fast!
…
Not far away, behind a huge rock, a figure in a white robe looked at the people at the entrance of the academy and tried to step forward several times.
But none of them could take this step. They just gently stroked the Rainbow Pear Blossom Needles and looked at someone with somewhat blurred eyes.
Shen Lang seemed to have sensed something. He turned his head and looked at a huge rock not far away. He smiled, but did not say anything. Instead, he raised his hands and touched his forehead. The person standing next to the boulder chuckled, stretched out his right hand and waved to Shen Lang as a farewell.
…
Everyone sighed, and then Shen Lang and his group of six found a path down the mountain and left Qingfeng Martial Arts Academy, putting an imperfect end to these few days.
As for Chen Luo, Shen Lang did not go to notify him, but left a note to Muchen, asking Muchen to give it to Chen Luo when he and Lang Taiyi finished their conversation.
Four hours later, Shen Lang and his group of six appeared at the foot of the mountain. Three carriages had already been prepared. Without saying much, everyone simply thanked and got on the three carriages. With a few neighs of horses, the three carriages moved slowly.
As they were in a hurry to return to Baiyun City, the three carriages did not stop in Qingfeng City. They drove until nightfall, then they stopped and found a relatively safe area in the forest to set up camp.
After lighting the bonfire, Shen Lang and Chen Buyong went into the woods and hunted two musk deer for dinner. After a simple meal, the three women returned to the carriage to rest. Shangguan Yu returned to the carriage and closed her eyes to rest, while Shen Lang and Chen Buyong sat by the bonfire to keep watch.
In order to strengthen the vigilance, Shen Lang directly brought out two unmanned reconnaissance aircraft and released them into the air. He and Chen Buyong each wore night vision glasses on their faces. However, Shen Lang was still a little worried, so he snapped his fingers and brought out the military radar, starting indiscriminate reconnaissance within a three-kilometer range.
“Huff…”
The wind in the forest late at night was a bit biting, and the cold moon hid in the clouds to keep warm. Shen Lang and Chen Buyong were so cold that they were crying and snotting. They got out five bulletproof vests and put them on, which made them feel better.
“Ding ding ding…”
Suddenly, the radar sounded an early warning, which was a bit harsh in the dark night.
