Quick Travel: Passing Through the Bloody World

Qin Shenyi, dressed in a theatrical costume, walked slowly onto the stage. As the sound of musical instruments rang out, his wide sleeves swung out from his hands.

The clear voice lingered throughout the Li Garden, as melodious as an oriole.

The people listening to the opera in the audience seemed to be pulled into this world.

"The water town has soft words, and the river city has Qin music. The people from the southern water town are different. When they start singing, my bones are softened."

"That's right. The world is so difficult. If the Qin family hadn't suffered, how could we hear the young master of the Qin family singing for us!"

"Even the rich and powerful are in such a state now. It's hard to describe! It's hard to describe!"

"If you ask me, in today's world, only those who hold guns can stand tall. Look at Master Pei Qi..."

Two elegant scholars were whispering while eating melon seeds.

The two people talked in low voices, and Pei Yu took a sip of tea calmly.

Cui Jiangping beside him was happy: "I didn't expect that people with guns are now praised by everyone."

Back when Master Pei had his own army, occupied the land and dominated Jiangcheng, the people here still fantasized that the emperor would send troops to quell the rebellion, and regarded those who used hot weapons as aliens.

Now that the two countries are at war and the situation is unstable, the truth is that the stronger the fist, the more likely it is that.

Pei Yu said: "The people are suffering so much, and they will naturally judge who is maintaining peace in their hearts."

Cui Jiangping was silent for a moment, then looked at Pei Yu and said, "Am I the one holding the gun, or am I a commoner?"

Pei Yu: "You are a bandit."

Cui Jiangping sneered, leaned back lazily, and leaned against the back of the chair.

After the song was finished, there was thunderous applause.

Qin Shenyi glanced in Pei Yu's direction before stepping down.

Pei Yu gave him a smiling look in return.

"Tsk." Cui Jiangping kept clicking his tongue.

Pei Yu looked over and asked: "Toothache?"

Cui Jiangping covered his mouth and said, "My teeth are sore."

Pei Yu: "Get lost."

Cui Jiangping picked up his folding fan and waved it gently: "You are not here to listen to the opera, you are here to see people."

Pei Yu did not deny it.

Cui Jiangping tapped his palm with his fan: "Since you like her, redeem her and take her back. Master Pei Qi, don't you have the ability to support someone?"

Pei Yu shook his head: "He won't go with me, at least not now."

Cui Jiangping couldn't understand: "You are the chief of staff of Jiangcheng Command. Under the current situation, the power of the command is in your hands. Everyone knows that you are the one who has the final say."

Isn't Mr. Qin's vision a bit too high?

Pei Yu smiled but said nothing.

"Manager, manager! Oh, something happened. Liang Saner went to the backyard!"

A voice came from behind.

The manager's voice was panicked: "What? Why didn't you keep an eye on him? Let him in!"

"I, I can't stop it!" the man was very anxious.

The manager waved his hand and said, "Shut up, don't make any noise, and leave now!"

Pei Yu looked at the steward and the servant leaving, lost in thought.

Pei Yu asked: "Who is Liang San?"

Cui Jiangping said in disgust: "The son of Liang the butcher is in the water transport business. Nowadays, there are wars everywhere, and the water transport business is mostly done. The father and son have occupied a lot of ships with their power. They are just two scoundrels."

There are many waterways in Jiangcheng, and the people make a living by fishing. Their lives are even more miserable when their boats are forcibly occupied by this father and son.

Whenever Cui Jiang encountered the Liang father and son's boat, he would stop it, rob the cargo and distribute it to the people.

"This Liang San'er is an illiterate man who usually hangs out in those filthy brothels. Why is he...?"

Cui Jiangping's face changed: "The old man in charge said he went to the backyard? Could he be going to Qin Shenyi?"

However, before he could finish his words, he saw Pei Yu get up and leave.

Under the flickering light, Pei Yu's back was hurried as he walked, and his shadow was stretched out very long.

The system was terrified [Nothing will happen, right?]

System [That Liang Saner is a big and strong man.]

Pei Yu [Don't worry, Liang San won't die.]

System […huh?]

The system wants to say that it is not this person that it is worried about.

The backyard of Lijiayuan was dimly lit, with only a few spots of light in the pitch-black darkness.

The shadows of the trees swayed, and the whole backyard was eerily quiet.

Pei Yu drew the pistol from his waist and glanced around.

creak-

Pei Yu paused and looked down at the thing that made the sound when he stepped on it.

It was a piece of candy. After Pei Yu stepped on it, the candy fragments scattered everywhere.

Pei Yu bent down, wrapped the candy pieces in a handkerchief and stuffed them into his pocket.

In the woodshed not far away, there was a flickering candlelight, flickering in the darkness.

There seemed to be a faint shadow swaying in the candlelight.

Pei Yu quickened his pace and ran in that direction, then pushed open the door of the woodshed with force.

The next moment, a cold light flashed before Pei Yu's eyes.

Pei Yu quickly dodged backwards, then raised his hand, held the man's hand, and pushed him towards the door.

"hiss……"

The man groaned, and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground, still struggling.

Pei Yu looked at the person he controlled and frowned: "Mr. Qin?"

After Pei Yu said this, Qin Shenyi, who was still struggling, stopped and turned to look at Pei Yu.

Under the flickering candlelight, Qin Shenyi's face was covered with two lines of tears, and there was anger and fear in his eyes. After seeing Pei Yu's face clearly, there was a bit more shock.

Qin Shenyi's lips moved: "Master Pei Qi..."

Pei Yu let Qin Shenyi stand firm and asked, "Mr. Qin, what happened? Why did you appear in the woodshed like this, holding a dagger to hurt me?"

"No, I'm not trying to hurt you..." Qin Shenyi gritted his teeth, suddenly raised his hands to hug Pei Yu's waist, and buried his head in Pei Yu's arms.

"Seventh Master, someone wants to bully me... I'm so scared... I'm sorry..."

Qin Shenyi tightened his grip around Pei Yu's hands, and his voice was very low and trembling as it sounded in Pei Yu's ears.

Pei Yu glanced at Qin Shenyi and raised his hand to pat Qin Shenyi on the back.

"It's okay, it's okay... I'm... what happened?"

Perhaps it was because Pei Yu's voice was too soothing, and after a while Qin Shenyi opened his mouth and told Pei Yu what had happened.

After finishing today's performance, Qin Shenyi took off his makeup and prepared to go back to his room to rest. However, the temperature dropped sharply tonight, so he wanted to go to the woodshed to get some firewood.

As a result, he felt something was wrong after taking a few steps, as if someone was following him.

However, it was so dark around him that he couldn't see clearly, so he thought of going back to his room to get a candle to light up.

As a result, as soon as he returned to the room, he was thrown onto the bed by someone. The man kept touching him all over his body. He was so scared that he screamed a few times, but the man showed no intention of stopping.

In panic, Qin Shenyi only had time to stab him a few times with the knife he carried with him, then pushed him away and ran out.

Qin Shenyi said in a trembling voice: "I was so scared that I didn't know where to hide, so I ran all the way to the woodshed..."

When Pei Yu came over just now, Qin Shenyi thought it was that person coming over again, which led to the scene just now.

Pei Yu took off his military jacket and put it on Qin Shenyi.

"I know what you said, don't worry, it's okay."

Qin Shenyi grabbed Pei Yu's coat with his hand and nodded.

"chief of staff!"

An officer who came with Pei Yu came in and gasped: "Oh no! Someone's dead!!"

Pei Yu raised his eyebrows: "Who?"

The officer glanced at Qin Shenyi, then at Pei Yu: "Liang Saner."

Pei Yu turned his head to look at Qin Shenyi, who was holding the corner of his clothes with his head down in a daze.

"There is also a soldier from Country R." the officer added.
