Traveling through the Immortal Realm: Starting from Becoming a Top-Level Furnace Cauldron

Li Chonglin didn't understand.

How could this man in front of me say such words so brazenly?

"Chief, these two must be spies of the Qin Dynasty. Lock them up and interrogate them thoroughly!" said the subordinate.

"Yes!"

"You're talking nonsense and making trouble. If you're not Qin Gou, then what is he?"

Lu Yuguan got angry and quickly retorted, "Hey, stop it! I was just framed as a Zhao spy a while ago. Isn't this a very fast change of identity?"

"What a Qin dog, daring to pretend to be a Zhao person!"

Lu Yuguan: “…”

Shangguan Qi said solemnly: "Brother Lu, I believe that you are definitely not a Qin spy!"

"nonsense!"

Lu Yuguan cursed: "I was almost killed by the little Ling Wang, how could it be a Qin person?"

Shangguan Qi was lost in thought.

"Do I need to think about this?" Lu Yuguan was speechless.

"But I dare not deny whether you are from Zhao."

"..."

"Are we still teammates? Where's the most basic trust?"

Shangguan Qi looked at him straight.

Lu Yuguan naturally knew what he meant and curled his lips: "Okay, I'm sorry."

Shangguan Qi didn't say anything.

"I have a cousin."

"Thank you, Brother Lu."

Lu Yuguan: “…”

Did it only take a few seconds to forgive me?

Yue Yi.

Young Master, I am sorry for you!

At this time, the hall was noisy and full of different opinions.

"Quiet!"

Li Chonglin shouted angrily and stopped the quarrel.

Lu Yuguan's eyes lit up: "Can you let us go?"

"That's a nice thought," Li Zhonglin looked at him as if he were a fool. "Until I find out your identities, you are not allowed to leave the base camp."

"Someone is coming——"

"Lock them up."

"promise!"

The two were dragged to the back, Lu Yuguan squeezed into a stone chamber, and Shangguan Qi was locked up in the next room.

The stone room was simple, with only a stone bed and a set of rough wooden tables and chairs.

There was a small window with iron bars on the wall, and outside was an unfamiliar mountain and forest scene.

It seems.

Li Chonglin’s so-called base camp was actually just a mountain stronghold.

"Hey!"

"let me out!"

Lu Yuguan slammed the stone door hard.

The gatekeeper laughed and said, "Stop shouting, kid. No one will come to save you even if you scream your throat out!"

"Broken throat!——"

"..."

Shangguan Qi poked his head out: "Isn't he here?"

Lu Yuguan was puzzled: "Who?"

"His throat is broken," Shangguan Qi said seriously, "otherwise why would you call him?"

Man: "..."

Lu Yuguan: “…”

This guy.

Or it could be a case of great wisdom hidden beneath the surface.

Or it's just pure bizarre thinking.

"Just stay here and wait until the leader is in a better mood. He might let you out." The man snorted and stood by the door without saying anything.

Lu Yuguan originally wanted to get some more information, but seeing that chatting was useless, he could only withdraw his head.

"Big brother."

"So when is our leader in a good mood?"

Shangguan Qi asked.

Lu Yuguan: “…”

confirmed.

One hundred percent the latter.

The man pretended not to hear.

Shangguan Qi thought he had spoken too quietly, so he shouted at the top of his voice—

"we!"

"leader!"

"Whenever I'm in a good mood!"

"what?"

The vein on the man's forehead jumped, and he glared at Shangguan Qi: "I think you are tired of living!"

Shangguan Qi shrank his neck, looked at Lu Yuguan innocently, and muttered softly: "Brother Lu, he seems to be in a bad mood."

Lu Yuguan couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Nonsense."

"Brother, don't be angry," Shangguan Qi apologized, "I'll show you a talent. How about sketching?"

"What?"

"It's just painting," Shangguan Qi picked up the gravel on the ground, "Just stand still and I'll draw you a picture."

The man turned his head and looked at Lu Yuguan, "Is he always like this?"

"No."

"It's probably the aftereffects of a broken heart."

Lu Yuguan felt helpless and melancholy. He sat on the cold stone bed and rubbed his swollen temples.

The dusk shone through the iron bars of the small window, casting shadows on the rough stone floor.

The birdsong gradually became less frequent, replaced by the rustling sounds of the people in the village.

*

Night falls.

Footsteps were heard outside the stone chamber.

The chains rattled and the stone door was pushed open.

Li Chonglin changed into a neat suit, and the fierceness between his brows became even stronger.

He glanced at Lu Yuguan without saying a word, then took off his outer robe and hung it aside.

Then he walked to the table and poured himself some water to drink.

The movements are very natural.

Lu Yuguan watched his actions and couldn't help but ask, "You are a great leader, and you are still huddled together with prisoners?"

"Who said you were a prisoner?"

Li Chonglin said calmly: "Also, this is where I live."

Lu Yuguan coughed awkwardly, "So...you're going to live with me like this?"

Li Zhonglin put down his water cup and glanced at him: "What's the matter? Is there a problem?"

"Are you not afraid that I will stab you in the middle of the night?"

Lu Yuguan narrowed his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Li Chonglin actually sneered.

"You can try."

"If I die here tonight."

"Tomorrow morning, you and the kid next door will be chopped into pieces by others."

Lu Yuguan felt a chill on his back.

I guess it's not that big.

"Tsk."

Lu Yuguan curled his lips and said, "You are so cruel."

Li Chonglin ignored him and lay down on the outside of the stone bed with his clothes on, taking up most of the space.

The stone bed was not big to begin with, and two grown men squeezed together, their skin almost touching.

Lu Yuguan could smell a faint scent of sweat on Li Chonglin.

He shrank back awkwardly.

This feeling.

too familiar.

It was the same when Li Chonglin stayed in his bed and refused to leave.

*

the following few days.

The two were still under house arrest in the stone chamber.

The scope of activities is limited to a small open space at the door, which is guarded.

"Three belts and one."

"I'm sorry."

"Three, do you want to follow?"

"Wang Bang!"

"Haha! This is what I've been waiting for. Seventeen cards, airplane!"

The three of them sat cross-legged on the ground playing poker.

The man said happily, "Oh, you told me there was something fun like this earlier. I'm so bored."

"Hey, brother, good things take time!" Lu Yuguan said with a smile.

After spending a few days together, he had already figured out the nature of the base camp through the man's words.

The so-called base camp.

It is an anti-Qin alliance organized by people from various countries.

The man said that Li Chonglin was originally from Yan State. Since the destruction of Yan State, he has been organizing people outside Tianyin to fight against Qin.

"Is the leader from the royal family of Yan?" Lu Yuguan asked.

"That... I'm not sure," the man scratched his head. "The leader never said anything."

*

Li Chonglin seems to be very busy.

But every night, he would return to his room and sleep on the same bed with Lu Yuguan.

"I checked you." Li Chonglin stared at him.

"Oh."

"What did you find?"

Lu Yuguan raised his eyebrows slightly.

"He was arrested by the Qin army, but he was favored by Wang Jian and stayed in the military camp as a cook."

"I fled to the State of Zhao, and within a short time, I became close friends with the young King of Zhao."

"After the border war ended, you were targeted by the Little Spirit King again, and he even used his secret guards to abduct you from Hancheng and bring you back to Tianyin."

Li Chonglin's voice was low and steady, but every word was shocking.

"you……"

"What's the charm..."

"How could these powerful figures be so obsessed with you?"
