Volume 4: Heroes Shed No Tears Chapter 113 The Man Carrying a Box
The tenth day of February.
Su Weiyun returned to Chang'an.
The Lion Hall in Luoyang has been renovated and given a brand new look.
Luoyang no longer needs Su Weiyun.
After helping Ding Xie remove the poison from the arrow, he left quietly, planning to return to Chang'an to continue working as a chef.
Even though Zhu Meng and Gao Jianfei were indeed his good friends, he was really unwilling to get involved in the endless fight between the Big Escort Agency and the Lion Hall.
This was a hassle for him and didn't mean much.
There is another more important reason - he really can't bear to see what Gao Jianfei will become when he finds out that his sweetheart is Zhu Meng's favorite woman, Die Wu.
When Su Weiyun finally left, she only asked Gao Jianfei one question: "What would you do if you found out that the person you love is actually the person I like the most?"
Gao Jianfei smiled and said, "That's impossible. This question is invalid. With your current character, Brother Su, it's impossible for you to fall in love with a woman."
"Um."
Under the setting sun, Su Weiyun set out on a long journey.
There are many, many problems that bother people, but in fact they are not true.
But people can never escape from the troubles of these problems.
…
Changanju, a large restaurant.
Ever since a new teahouse opened next to Chang'an Ju, business here has been getting better and better.
The owner of Chang'an Ju originally thought that the "distinguished guests" who came to the big restaurant would not be willing to eat across a wall from all kinds of small people from all walks of life.
But things turned out to be beyond his expectations.
So when Su Weiyun returned to the restaurant, he was still very polite: "Oh, Master Su is back? Come on, come on, the restaurant's business is getting more and more popular now, the kitchen is very busy, it's great that you can come back."
Su Weiyun changed into a brand new chef's uniform and walked all the way to the kitchen at the back.
The boss of Chang'anju also said: "You don't know that the good business of the restaurant is thanks to you. If you hadn't asked Madam Sima to open a teahouse next door..."
When Su Weiyun heard this, she knew that Zhuo Donglai and others from the Big Escort Agency had not spread the matter between Wu Wan and him. Instead, they must have issued a gag order, so even the boss of Chang'an Ju didn't know about it.
The owner of Chang'anju continued, "I never expected that those distinguished guests would actually prefer to come to the restaurant, and often deliberately sit near the teahouse."
Kitchen.
Su Weiyun came in, washed the pots, scrubbed the dishes, and swept the floor, all with skillful movements, all done in one go.
As he was tending to it, he smiled and said, "What's so strange about this? Some 'distinguished guests' often like to look at people who are more humble and inferior than themselves, because this can make them feel much better about themselves without any effort."
The owner of Changanju smiled and said, "Yes, yes, Master Su is very insightful. I won't bother you anymore. Xiao Zhang will let you know what dishes are ready later."
Having said that, he walked out.
Su Weiyun quickly lit the fire, heated the pot, and washed the vegetables. His mood suddenly became much better than when he was in Luoyang City.
"Well, the Lion Hall's affairs have been temporarily settled. As for Zhu Meng and Gao Jianfei's affairs, let them handle them themselves."
Su Weiyun decided not to think about it anymore and not to cause herself any more trouble.
…
February 11th, cloudy.
Su Weiyun was particularly busy that day because many guests from Chang'an heard that he had returned and made a special trip to try his cooking.
From noon until night, Su Weiyun was busy in the kitchen with almost no rest time.
There is nothing happening in Chang'an.
After the Grand Escort Agency learned the news from the Luoyang Lion Hall, it did not take any action.
The only thing that was worth wondering was that a red smoke suddenly rose outside Chang'an City and then disappeared.
…
February 12, snow.
Su Weiyun wanted to take it a little easier today. Although it was still hard work, it was a fulfilling and interesting day.
Sima Chaoqun and Zhuo Donglai held a banquet in their Chang'an residence, which was very lavish. Two of the three main dishes were made by "Master Su".
They had no other intentions and really just came to have a meal out of politeness.
Moreover, Zhuo Donglai specially rewarded "Master Su" with three hundred taels of silver. The owner of Chang'anju personally delivered the silver and greatly encouraged and praised Su Weiyun.
Early morning.
Outside Chang'an City, blood and smoke appeared again.
…
February 13th, sunny.
Su Weiyun was much more relaxed now. He made sure to have enough time every day to practice internal skills, read secret books, and learn the Poison Sutra.
Today is the beginning of spring and the snow is about to melt. Su Weiyun is in high spirits. He finds a deserted place and practices a set of Seven Birds Palm.
He felt that his palm skills had improved.
Apart from the third rising blood smoke, Chang'an was otherwise calm and peaceful, and the Big Escort Agency seemed to be out of reach of Luoyang.
…
February 14th, sunny.
It's a sunny day again and the sun is especially warm.
In the morning, Su Weiyun took advantage of his free time to run to the teahouse next door, drink a cup of tea, and listen to storytelling leisurely.
"It is said that Lord Xuande was attacked by Lü Bu that day and fled from Pei City. It was really dangerous and full of dangers."
"Lü Bu rode on his Red Hare, swung his Fang Tian Hua Ji, and laughed loudly : 'Big Eared Thief, the King of Hell wants you dead at three o'clock in the morning, who dares to keep you alive until five o'clock? I have killed at least eighty masters. Even if the King of Heaven really comes today, he can't save you!'"
"Liu Bei heard this..."
It was early in the day and the weather was still cold.
There weren't many customers in the teahouse.
Su Weiyun suddenly interrupted and said with a smile: "Wait a minute, was that what Lu Bu said just now, or did you make it up yourself?"
The storyteller stopped, scratched his head, and said awkwardly: "Hehehehe... Don't be angry, sir. This is indeed something I made up... Doesn't it highlight the murderous intent of Lu Bu?"
Su Weiyun laughed loudly, took out a whole ingot of silver from the three hundred taels of silver that Zhuo Donglai had sent the day before, threw it to the storyteller, and said with a smile: "You made up a good story, please continue."
The storyteller took the silver with both hands, smiling: "Yes, yes, sir, listen carefully, the next story is even more exciting..."
Su Weiyun shook his head and laughed, he stood up and was about to leave, but suddenly he felt a force locking onto him from behind.
A strong murderous intent!
Under the surveillance of this energy, he didn't dare to move at all.
Although Su Weiyun did not see who it was, he was sure that it was definitely not Zhuo Donglai, let alone Sima Chaoqun.
Neither Sima Chaoqun nor Zhuo Donglai could have such powerful momentum and murderous intent!
He could also be sure that this person was here to kill him!
——This person might be more difficult to deal with than Sima Chaoqun and Zhuo Donglai combined!
Su Weiyun's mind raced, and he suddenly remembered what Gao Jianfei had said to him.
"From Chang'an to Luoyang, it's eight hundred miles, and there are six masters in total."
The last master is the ordinary man carrying the box.
So Su Weiyun didn't look back, but walked towards the outside of Chang'an City.
He walked on the road with a very serious look on his face, walking step by step and steadily.
Ordinary people looking at him just thought that he was just like someone learning to walk in Handan, and his walking posture was very strange.
But in the eyes of experts, it is different.
At this moment, there was no open hole in Su Weiyun's body, not even the slightest flaw.
The main gate of Chang'an, outside the gate is the suburbs.
The soil on the outskirts of the city was covered with thick snow, which was very different from the scene inside the city.
It took Su Weiyun two hours to walk from the teahouse to the city gate.
At noon, the sun was high in the sky.
After Su Weiyun left the city gate, he walked another five miles.
It took him another hour to walk the five miles.
Then he stopped and turned around.
Logically speaking, with Su Weiyun's profound internal strength, if he walked at this speed, he would not feel tired even if he walked for a day and a night, let alone five or ten miles.
But when Su Weiyun turned around, he was already sweating profusely.
He took those steps with great difficulty and was exhausted.
But he finally saw the person who had been behind him.
An ordinary face, an ordinary man carrying a box.
The only "unusual" thing about him was that he was sweating all over and breathing slightly in such cold weather!
Su Weiyun was afraid of him, and he was also afraid of Su Weiyun!
Su Weiyun sighed: "Are you here to kill me this time?"
The ordinary man nodded and admitted: "Yes."
Su Weiyun asked: "What grudge do I have against you?"
The ordinary person said: "No hatred or grudge. I am just a killer, a killer called Xiao Leixue!"
Su Weiyun frowned and asked, "Xiao Leixue?"
Xiao Leixue said: "That's right, because my name is Xiao Leixue, so when the 'Death Order' appears, a very important figure in the martial arts world will die in my hands."
Su Weiyun asked: "What is the death order?"
While he was talking to delay time, he took the opportunity to practice his internal energy and restore his strength.
He knew that Xiao Leixue must have made such a plan, but he was confident that the magic of his "Wedding Dress Magic" would not be inferior to the mental method practiced by Xiao Leixue.
Xiao Leixue said: "The bloody fire and red smoke outside Chang'an City is the message of the soul-snatching death order. Someone in the martial arts world once described this order as the 'King of Hell's Order'. 'King of Hell wants you to die at three o'clock in the morning, who dares to keep you until five o'clock?'"
Su Weiyun said: "It seems that many masters must have died at your hands."
Xiao Leixue said calmly: "If not a hundred, then at least eighty."
Su Weiyun asked again: "Then even if the king of heaven came today, he couldn't save me?"
This question actually made Xiao Leixue ponder. After a long while, he slowly said, "You are the one who I think has the highest martial arts skills and is the most difficult to kill. But what you said today is probably not wrong."
Su Weiyun's internal energy had already circulated through a cycle and was in excellent condition. He suddenly moved and flew high into the sky.
The sword emitted a flash of light, creating a vast expanse of white, which contrasted beautifully with the snow on the ground!
"Unfortunately, I never have the habit of waiting for God to save me!"
