In the morning, the fire went out.

Lu Yuan brushed off the dust on the package and said to the embroiderer, "You helped me identify some things, and I saved your life."

"It can be considered that we owe nothing to each other."

"I plan to travel around the world. What about you? Have you decided where to go?"

"Your injury hasn't healed yet, so you'd better find a quiet place to rest first."

Meeting Lu Yuan's clear gaze, the embroiderer didn't know what to say for a moment.

She is a wandering soul. Although the Seven Kingdoms are big, where can she go?

The target she chose to assassinate this time was not ordinary, and most importantly, she failed. One can imagine what will happen in the future. When she returns to Chu, the other party will definitely send more men to hunt her down.

"Senior, I can see that you are a good person."

"Unlike those unfaithful people in the world, Xiu Niang can stay by your side, even if she is just a maid."

"To repay you for saving my life."

"I just ask for a place to settle down." The embroiderer clenched her jade hands.

Afraid that Lu Yuan would refuse.

nice guy?

Different from a heartless person?

But what can I see clearly after just spending one night with him?

Lu Yuan looked at the embroiderer and knew that she had lowered her head. He looked at the scars on her body and picked up the package in his hand and handed it to her: "Wait for me here!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

The embroiderer held the package in her hand and wondered what Lu Yuan was going to do, but she still stood there obediently and waited.

It was not until half an hour later that Lu Yuan came back.

And a carriage followed him back.

In fact, it was all thanks to those people who were hunting down the embroiderer, and it was also because they had extorted enough money from them.

Only Lu Yuan could buy this carriage.

Lu Yuan stretched out his hands: "Come, let me help you up!"

"Thank you, senior." After a slight hesitation, the embroiderer placed her hand in Lu Yuan's palm.

After helping the embroiderer into the carriage, Lu Yuan drove the carriage forward on the road while saying to the people in the carriage: "My last name is Lu, and my given name is Yuan."

"I'm not some master, so you don't have to call me senior."

"It sounds like an old man."

"Young Master?" The embroiderer's voice sounded tentatively.

"Oh... whatever you want!" This was how things were in feudal dynasties. The word equality was undoubtedly a luxury and a heinous crime.

Lu Yuan has gotten used to it over the past decade.

And deep down in my heart, I secretly enjoy this feeling.

Human nature is like this. Most people don’t hate privileges, they just hate that the people who enjoy the privileges are not themselves.

"Can I ask who your failed assassination target was?"

"After all, they may be our common enemy in the future." Lu Yuan is not stupid. The reason why Xiu Niang chose to follow him is probably because she wanted to use her own strength to resist the subsequent pursuit.

"Sir, please forgive me."

"I didn't mean to hide it, but I just haven't figured out how to tell you yet."

"If you feel embarrassed, I will leave now." After the explanation from the embroiderer, Lu Yuan finally understood the cause and effect of the matter.

The target that Xiu Niang assassinated was nothing special. He was a descendant of a fallen nobleman and was powerless. His only advantage was that he was a scholar.

But the difficulty lies in the fact that this person is an aide to Zuotu's Mansion of the State of Chu.

This man often took advantage of the power of Zuotu Mansion to force women to marry him. One of the women who was defiled was the daughter of a small merchant from the State of Chu.

The only daughter in the family, she is very much loved. This is why her father, knowing that he could not afford to offend Zuo Tufu, still spent all his family wealth in exchange for 300 gold to issue an assassination mission.

The embroiderer waited outside Zuotu's mansion for more than ten days but her target didn't show up, so she had to sneak in to look for him. But with her skills, how could she complete the task in such a heavily guarded place with soldiers in the open and experts in the dark?

Lu Yuan did not blame the embroiderer.

Survival is human instinct.

Although he is a little clever, his nature is not bad. He is not insidious, cunning or scheming.

……

I don't know how many days passed.

The embroiderer's injuries have recovered as before, and thanks to the Yin-Yang family's secret medicine for external injuries, there is not even a scar left.

The embroiderer drove the carriage and looked at the ruins around her and said, "Sir, why are there so many ruins in Korea?"

"It is one of the seven great nations in the world, but how could it be so dilapidated? So many people are displaced and living in the wilderness!"

"Alas..." Lu Yuan sighed with emotion: "In the past, King Ping of Zhou moved eastward, causing the Zhou Dynasty to gradually decline, and the princes successively dominated."

"It has been more than 500 years now and the seven nations are still at war year after year. There has never been a moment of peace and stability on the border."

"Among the seven countries, some are strong and some are weak, and South Korea is undoubtedly the weakest among them."

"In such an era and in such an environment, how can border residents born in such a country live a happy and stable life?"

The war has been going on for hundreds of years, and it really needs a man of great courage to end it.

The embroiderer had never read history books and didn't understand these things, but when she listened to Lu Yuan's story, scenes of constant wars among countries, chaos everywhere, heroes vying for supremacy, and the birth and destruction of countries emerged unconsciously in her mind.

Soldiers died on the battlefield and civilians died in the wilderness.

It is so desolate, tragic, barbaric and bloody...

The carriage headed towards the heart of Korea.

Lu Yuan was not in a hurry. He walked and stopped during the day. When he was tired, he would stop to have a good rest and appreciate the scenery along the way.

Meditate and practice qigong at night.

Of course, in addition to practicing, he would enter the battle space every day as usual to fight with Donghuang Taiyi and others.

Xiaoyi's Wanye Feihualiu, which was at the minor level, had already been inherited by Lu Yuan.

Although he could not defeat others every time, a mosquito is still meat, and even the efficiency of the "consolation prize" was far greater than Lu Yuan's step-by-step practice.

Moreover, as his strength continued to increase, he was no longer killed instantly in one blow like before.

Gradually, you will be able to launch a counterattack and even take more actions.

Sinjeong, the capital of Korea.

A carriage slowly drove in from the east gate.

The embroiderer looked back into the carriage and said, "Sir, where are we going next?"

"Let's find a place to stay first! We may have to stay in Xinzheng for a while."

"Do you have enough money to buy a place to stay?" Lu Yuan's voice came from the carriage.

"There's still a lot of money left from the money I looted from those people. It should be enough."

"But I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for much longer."

Ever since he had an embroiderer by his side, Lu Yuan handed over all the chores to her.

It's a lot more relaxing. It's really a good thing to have a woman around.

"Then settle down first."

"Don't worry about the money. I'll find a way to solve it later."

With Lu Yuan's current means, he doesn't have to worry about money.

At worst, we can rob the rich and help the poor.

Steal other people's wealth and give to your own poverty.

night.

Lu Yuan and the embroiderer were standing in a courtyard with two entrances.

Looking from top to bottom, the whole house looks like a Chinese character "日".

There are three main rooms and two side rooms. There are bamboos and water, and the environment is very good.

It is enough for Lu Yuan and his companion to live in.

After driving the carriage all the way, the embroiderer was indeed tired.

After helping Lu Yuan wash up, he also washed up quickly and fell asleep soon.

Lu Yuan began to practice his mental skills in the room.

Even with the system, the habits Lu Yuan had developed over the years remained unchanged.

The path of cultivation is like rowing against the current; if you don’t move forward, you will move backward.

There is no room for slackness, Lu Yuan always believes in this.
