The reason why Chen Yuan chose to believe Yin Liu's words was mainly because of fate.
A person who is poisoned, in a humble position, and has worries will only tell the truth when he sees the hope of destiny.
Although he didn't know what the relationship between Yin Liu and the girl named Bi Yue was, and his last words were just for one person, Chen Yuan could definitely conclude that Yin Liu was not lying.
He has no reason to lie. Once he lies, no one can save him, and no one can protect Biyue.
Letting Yin Liu leave, Chen Yuan turned around and returned to the Chenghuang Temple.
A dozen undocumented children were considered all of Jin Wu's family property. Since Jin Wu went to Luofeng Mountain alone for himself, he could not ignore these children.
"Big brother, you are back. You are so powerful, even more powerful than the fifth sister."
The girl named Xiao Ou stared with big watery eyes and was not afraid of Chen Yuan at all.
On the other hand, the other children showed fear after seeing Chen Yuan's burned body.
"Fifth sister? You call Han Wu your sister?" Chen Yuan looked confused.
"Yes. The fifth sister is very kind to us. She brings us delicious food every day, including chickens, fish, beef and big steamed buns. Unfortunately, the fifth sister has been gone for several days, and we have been hungry for several days. Oh my God. Big brother, you are so capable, can you help Xiao Ou get some meat to eat? Xiao Ou is really hungry."
The little girl was stroking her withered belly, with tears in her eyes, looking very pitiful.
Looking at the thin children in front of him, Chen Yuan suddenly admired Jin Wu. A woman, disguised as a male cultivator, just to take care of these homeless children.
The most important thing is that since I didn't find out that Jin Wu is a woman.
This shows how good Jin Wu is at disguise.
Smiling, regardless of whether Jin Wu is a boy or a girl, the most important thing now is how to place these children.
Jin Wu's life and death are unknown now, and the Yin Sha Sect comes from time to time. The most important thing is that he is also a wanderer in Huiyue City, with no place to stay.
"Come here. I have something to ask you."
Chen Yuan picked up the thin girl, called the oldest Liu Chao over, and asked: "Usually, after your fifth sister leaves, where will you live? How will you live?"
"Every time the fifth sister goes out, she will leave some food and money for us. Although it is not much, it can last at least a few days. If we really run out of food, we will go to the streets to beg for food. At the end of the day, we can always get something to eat. As for the scope of activities, apart from the ruined City God's Temple, there are several important streets in Huiyue City. We generally will not leave Huiyue City."
The words of Liu Chao, the big boy, prove that they have no skills and know nothing except begging.
Even if I leave them food and money, I won't be able to support them for long. This time I went to Luofeng Mountain. It was unknown when and whether I would be able to come back. We had to find a way for these children to make a living.
But I don’t know anyone, so what means of livelihood can I give them?
Frowning and thinking hard, Chen Yuan suddenly thought that these two people might be able to take care of them on his behalf.
"Big brother, what are you thinking about? Xiao Ou is hungry and hasn't eaten for two days. Can big brother take Xiao Ou to eat the big fish in Yuefanzhuang first? Xiao Ou heard that those big fish are all It weighs ten kilograms, and one piece is enough for Xiaoou to eat for ten days."
The two people Chen Yuan thought of could indeed temporarily protect the children in front of him, but now, solving their stomach problems was the most important thing.
Squeezing Xiao Ou's dirty face, Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Okay, big brother will take you to eat a ten-pound fish now."
"Let's go eat a big fish...the biggest fish at Huiyue Restaurant..."
Twelve ragged beggars and children followed Chen Yuan towards the spacious streets of Huiyue City, attracting many strange looks along the way.
Huiyue Restaurant is the largest restaurant in Huiyue City. There is an endless flow of people in the bustling restaurant. When more than a dozen people just arrived at the door of the restaurant. Two men dressed as servants immediately ran out of the restaurant and shouted:
"Go, go, go, you little beggar. Huiyue Restaurant is not the place you should come."
"We are here to eat big fish. Big brother is rich, a lot of money!"
Xiao Ou held his chest high and raised his head. He was not afraid of the waiters at the restaurant, so he walked into the restaurant with his head held high.
Chen Yuan liked the little girl who was less than ten years old in front of him very much. After throwing a silver coin to the waiter in the restaurant, he said: "Put the best food in your restaurant on the table. Remember, the fish should be the biggest. It must weigh ten pounds.”
Opening a restaurant is naturally about money. With money, no matter who you are, even if you are a beggar on the street, you are the most valuable guest.
Looking at the silver in his hand, the boy couldn't believe it at first, then he smiled and shouted: "Thirteen distinguished guests want a ten-pound fish!"
Soon, a table of sumptuous meals was served. The big fish was indeed ten pounds, and it took two people carrying a huge plate to bring it to the table.
The children wolfed down the food, and half of the food on the table quickly disappeared in the wind and clouds.
The moment Chen Yuan picked up the wine glass, he felt a familiar scent.
Shi Yangming, one of the two people Chen Yuan thought of who could protect Xiao Ou and others, this chivalrous and righteous Luoxia Sect monk appeared in Huiyue City for some reason.
It really takes no effort to find it.
Pick up the wine flask, pick up the wine glass, and come to the second floor of the restaurant.
"Brother Shi, you're fine!"
Pushing open the private room, Chen Yuan saw two people in total, the injured Shi Yangming, and Ouyang Tianyin who was treating his injuries and applying dressing.
"You...why are you here?"
Although Ouyang Tianyin is not the most talented female cultivator in Luoxia Sect, she still has a certain status. Being caught by the Heavenly Demon Sect was the biggest stain in her life. She had always been most afraid of this stain being known by the sect.
Except for some people who didn't know her, Chen Yuan was the only one who knew about the stain.
Seeing Chen Yuan's arrival at this moment, Ouyang Tianyin was inevitably a little panicked. She was most afraid that Shi Yangming would find out about her affairs.
"Miss Ouyang, please come and be fine. That day..."
"Shut up, you remnant of the Heavenly Demon Sect, stop talking nonsense, I don't know you!"
Chen Yuan still wanted to say something, but the sword in Ouyang Tianyin's hand came to Chen Yuan's neck. It could be said that as long as Chen Yuan moved slightly, the sword would immediately cut off his neck.
"Miss Ouyang, why are you doing this? If not..."
"Shut up. If you dare to say more, I will not let you go!" At this time, Ouyang Tianyin's aura has been completely released. Since he has reached the fifth level of Qi refining, he is one level higher than Chen Yuan.
"Senior sister, Brother Chen is my best friend, so please don't lose your temper. My injuries have nothing to do with Brother Chen, they are all caused by the Yinsha Sect. Ahem..."
Shi Yangming on the bed seemed to be seriously injured. He vomited a lot of blood after just saying a few words.
"Junior Brother Shi, please stop talking. It's all Senior Sister's fault that has harmed Junior Brother."
Ouyang Tianyin was busy stroking Shi Yangming's back, with tears in the corners of his eyes.
Chen Yuan also put down the wine bottle in his hand and consoled him: "Brother Shi is injured, so it's not appropriate to talk too much. It's better to get more rest. Today, I was drinking in this restaurant and accidentally sensed Brother Shi's aura, so I came to pay a visit. Brother Shi, let’s discuss something.”
Shi Yangming was a nosy, chivalrous and courageous knight. Chen Yuan asked for help, so he was naturally very happy and said:
"Brother Chen's matters are my Shi Yangming's matters. I will do my best. However, Brother Chen, I also have something to ask of you. Please agree to it."
"Brother Shi, please speak."
"Brother Chen must have known that the Ninth Prince wanted to escort the Nine Dragons Jade Seal back to the imperial capital. That day, I recommended Brother Chen to the Ninth Prince. I originally thought that the Ninth Prince would let Brother Chen go with us. Unexpectedly, the Ninth Prince had other plans. So that Brother Chen He couldn’t come with us.”
Only now did Chen Yuan realize that the reason why he was targeted by the Ninth Prince was entirely because this dear man was talking behind his back.
However, it doesn't matter now. Even if Shi Yangming doesn't recommend it to the Ninth Prince, Chen Yuan will be involved in this court catastrophe.
Almost no one in the world, no matter who they are, can escape this whirlpool.
It turned out that not long after the Ninth Prince and others successfully left and returned to Yuecheng under the escort of Shi Yangming and other monks, they were ambushed. Moreover, the person who ambushed them was at least the fourth level of Qi Refining, and there were even masters in the foundation building stage.
After a fight, the Ninth Prince took the opportunity to escape, leaving only Shi Yangming and seven other monks to contend with the ambush.
After another series of battles, more than half of the seven monks were killed or injured. Those who survived like Shi Yangming were also seriously injured. It was obviously impossible to continue fighting.
If it hadn't been for the roar of a ferocious beast from nowhere, Shi Yangming and others would definitely have died on the spot.
"I would like to ask Brother Shi to find the Ninth Prince and escort the Ninth Prince to the imperial capital smoothly. The Ninth Prince is the wisest and most benevolent among the nine princes. Only when he becomes the emperor can the Great Qi Dynasty come out of the quagmire. .”
In fact, Chen Yuan was very puzzled by Shi Yangming's behavior. He was obviously a monk with good talents and loved by the sect, but he liked to meddle in the world's affairs. It is not enough to take care of the affairs of ordinary people, but also the affairs of the dynasty.
I really don’t know where his avenue is?
Frowning slightly, Chen Yuan deliberately refused.
"I understand Brother Chen's thoughts. There are few monks in the world who like to meddle in other people's business like me. But nosy matters are the world's affairs. Only when the world's affairs are in peace can we monks practice with peace of mind, right?"
"If the world is in turmoil all the time, although we monks can stay out of it, what about ordinary mortals? Should they become cannon fodder in the world?"
After listening to Shi Yangming's words, Chen Yuan smiled and said: "The affairs of the world are our business. I am just an escort messenger. It won't take long. I promised Brother Shi for my brother."
Shi Yangming was overjoyed and quickly took out something from his arms, handed it to Chen Yuan and said:
"This is the identity token given by the Ninth Prince. As long as you hold this token, you are the person whom the Ninth Prince trusts most. You can appear next to the Ninth Prince at any time."
