Chapter 415 A Question
After staying in Dongwulin for three whole years, visiting all the major sects one by one and checking in at many Jianghu scenic spots, Lu Ping finally started to think about traveling again.
Through the space channel he learned from Du Fa, he successfully came to Beiwulin, and it has been two months since then.
In the past two months, Lu Ping has already gained a good understanding of the current situation in Beiwulin——
The Zhao Song Dynasty had two emperors, the Northern and Southern emperors, who were seemingly united but actually at odds with each other. Within their respective territories, the people spread rumors that "they were the orthodox ones".
The Liao, Meng, Jin, Xia and other ethnic groups had been beaten to the point of being wiped out after the great war decades ago, and the remaining descendants could only change their names and surnames to survive.
There was a Dali Kingdom on the border of the two Song Dynasties. Its territory was not large and its national strength was not strong. It advocated Buddhism and was in charge of the Duan family. It had friendly relations with the Zhao Song Dynasty for generations.
Overall, the Northern Song Dynasty is the eldest brother, the Southern Song Dynasty is the second brother, and Dali is the third brother.
After figuring out the division of power at the international level, Lu Ping began to investigate the situation in the martial arts world.
After two months of open and secret investigations and intelligence gathering, it was deduced that the current martial arts world should be an era where Tian Long, Shen Condor Heroes, and Situ Jianqiao's comic book "Wen Ruian's Heroes" are combined into one.
After learning about the situation in the martial arts world, Lu Ping did not go directly to someone or something, but continued to travel around the world, hoping to see if he could meet any "protagonist" or "extra".
Now he has finally waited for it.
"Are you Wang Xiaoshi?"
"Uh...you heard my story?"
Wang Xiaoshi blinked his innocent big eyes, feeling very surprised.
This was clearly the first time I came down the mountain, and also the first time I met this man named Lu Ping, so how come he seemed to know my name?
Lu Ping laughed: "Your face is full of stories!"
“My face…???”
Wang Xiaoshi was even more confused. Wasn't his face famous for being simple, cute and innocent?
Could it be that the person in front of me can read my face and see my rich history of broken love?
However, Wang Xiaoshi soon realized that he was wrong, because Lu Ping took out several bounty orders from his arms - those were the bounty orders issued by the Power Gang, for Wang Xiaoshi, Yang Guo and others.
"You see, your story is worth a lot!"
Wang Xiaoshi took the reward order and looked at it, only to find that the portrait on it was actually himself, as well as the portraits of Yang Guo and others. When he saw the price, he could not help but exclaimed.
"Three hundred taels?!"
Who do you look down on?
"Why, do you think three hundred taels is too low?"
Lu Ping chuckled and continued to drink and eat leisurely, commenting: "Yes, your strength is definitely worth more than this price!"
The two people's startled voices soon attracted other people who were drying clothes nearby.
"What three hundred taels?"
Wang Xiaoshi handed over the reward order with a bitter face: "Look at this..."
"This is... We are being put on a bounty by the Power Gang?"
Yang Guo frowned, knowing that he was in big trouble now.
The reward amounts for the five people are different.
Wang Xiaoshi and Yang Guo were the main forces in the street fight that day, so they were offered a reward of 300 taels;
Guo Fu was Guo Jing's daughter, so a reward of 200 taels was offered for her.
The two Wus were unknown, so only a reward of 100 taels was offered to each of them.
The total amount for the five people was one thousand taels.
One thousand and two taels of silver is not a small sum for those desperate criminals who live on the edge of a knife every day.
After hearing the news, the few people who were originally relaxed suddenly became a little wary of the road ahead.
This guy is so strange, and he appears here at this time. Could it be that he wants to capture us and take us to the Power Gang in exchange for a reward?
But soon, this idea was rejected by several people.
If he really intended to attack me and others, he should not have told this matter out loud. Instead, he should have drugged the food and wine and waited until I and others had consumed the food and wine before taking action.
"Thank you, Brother Lu, for telling me this. Otherwise, we wouldn't have known that we were in big trouble..."
"Brother Yang, you are welcome to sit down and have a cup of hot wine to warm yourself up."
Lu Ping was also very interested in why Yang Guo and Wang Xiaoshi got together.
If we estimate his age based on his appearance and consider the timeline of the original novel, Yang Guo should have just come down from Mount Zhongnan at this time.
But this is the world of martial arts after all, and his past may not be the same as the plot in "The Return of the Condor Heroes".
So Lu Ping decided to investigate with words first.
"But simply eating and drinking is boring. Why don't you tell me why you were targeted by the Power Gang?"
"There is nothing wrong with this..."
Seeing that Lu Ping was open-minded and generous, Yang Guo immediately felt a liking for him. In order to make friends with him, he readily told him about their experiences in Zailai Town.
Upon learning the reason for the reward, it turned out that Guo Fu was causing trouble outside, Lu Ping was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
But for some reason, he was not surprised at all by this reason, but felt that it was "not unexpected". Guo Fu was called a straw bag by the readers of The Return of the Condor Heroes, and it was not wrong.
"Ahem... Actually, Miss Guo has a chivalrous heart, and she has the same spirit as her father!"
Although it was just polite talk, it finally eased the awkward atmosphere a lot.
But Yang Guo was still unwilling to stop, he put the wine glass heavily on the table, and continued to sneer: "Reckless and impulsive, even dragging Uncle Guo and Aunt Guo into the water, making enemies for nothing, she is just a stupid woman!"
These days, Guo Fu has been regretting her impulsive behavior that day.
Now, hearing Yang Guo exposing his shortcomings in front of outsiders again, and not even hiding the accusations in his words, he suddenly felt frustrated, angry, ashamed and annoyed, and he felt that the roast chicken that Xiao Wu and Da Wu brought to his mouth was no longer delicious.
"I already know I was wrong, why are you still holding on to this matter?"
The girl yelled, staring at Yang Guo with her big eyes, and she was about to drop her little pearls.
The two Wu brothers standing by felt very distressed.
Yang Guo originally planned to turn a blind eye, but after seeing the tears in the girl's eyes, his heart trembled and he felt guilty. He wanted to speak out to comfort and apologize, but he couldn't bring himself to do it.
The atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly became solemn.
The only sound in the air was the sound of Wang Xiaoshi eating meat and drinking.
"Brother Shitou, eat slowly, others haven't eaten yet!"
"Oh, I thought they weren't hungry..."
Wang Xiaoshi laughed sheepishly and handed over the sauce-flavored cake in his hand: "You guys can have some too."
However, before anyone could reach out, an arm suddenly swooped in from the middle and snatched the sauce-flavored pancake away.
Just as I was wondering, I heard Lu Ping's voice.
"Twelve hours have passed. Congratulations on your victory."
Wang Xiaoshi looked up and happened to see a cold and arrogant face.
The two faces were upside down, and the four eyes were bright and sharp.
The gazes of the two people collided in the air less than ten centimeters apart. As they looked into each other's eyes, it seemed that they could see into the deepest part of each other's soul from those close eye sockets, and they even briefly entered a state of spiritual empathy.
"How long do you two want to see it?"
"Come any closer and I'll kiss you!"
A voice brought Wang Xiaoshi back to his senses.
When he came back to his senses, Wang Xiaoshi immediately forgot the wonderful feeling and related memories.
Then Wang Xiaoshi discovered that the person standing behind him and who had just snatched the sauce-flavored cake was the one who had been standing upside down in the position of the Buddha statue.
This man had a cold face and looked crazy and stupid. He looked at the people in front of him and uttered three cold words -
"Fuck, you, mother!"
He starts cursing as soon as he opens his mouth. His quality needs to be improved.
Except for Lu Ping, who already knew his identity and habits, everyone else present was stunned.
"Hey, why do you curse as soon as you open your mouth?"
Among the people present, only Guo Fu's mother was still alive, so she was quite dissatisfied with this.
In addition, she had just been angered by Yang Guo, and at this moment she wanted to vent all her anger on the madman in front of her.
But before Guo Fu could stand up, Yang Guo violently pushed her back to her seat.
"Ouch! What are you doing?"
"Yang Guo you hurt me!!"
The girl frowned and looked coquettish, which was very pretty.
However, Yang Guo did not even look at his white moonlight, but just stared at the madman who had just started cursing.
Not to mention how terrifying the internal strength of a person who can stand upside down in that position for twelve hours must be. Just from the fact that the opponent landed on the ground and grabbed the cake without him noticing, you can tell that there is a huge gap in strength between the two sides.
If such a person had ill intentions towards himself and others, the situation would definitely be ten thousand times more dangerous than facing those powerful gangs in Zaila Town that day!
Fortunately, the madman ignored Yang Guo and the others, but sat down next to Lu Ping, finished the sauce-flavored pancake in his hand in three bites, and then reached for the roast chicken on the table.
"I won the bet!"
Lu Ping nodded: "Yes, you win."
"Now I can answer a question in your mind."
The madman asked: "Then tell me quickly, who am I?"
"You are Guan Qi!"
