“Huh?”
Upon hearing what Vermilion Bird said, Zhang Yu looked astonished.
As for Chen Sheng,
his understanding of him was limited to the fact that he was Shen Zi Ming’s friend and that he could fight Zhao Zhenfeng, the Power Sect’s Direct Disciple, whose strength was quite impressive.
But that was about it.
As for Vermilion Bird,
Zhang Yu knew that he was a member of the Holy Sect and that he was acquainted with his master.
But he had no idea why they were connected or what they were going to do.
Out of trust for Sun Yihe, Zhang Yu never wanted to pry. He only tried to respect Vermilion Bird as a senior.
Vermilion Bird and Chen Sheng,
Zhang Yu couldn’t understand how the two of them were involved with each other.
“Don’t ask any more,”
Vermilion Bird waved his hand, acting mysterious. “Anyway, I’ll bring him to see your Master tomorrow.”
“He’ll stay with you tonight.”
“Oh… okay.”
Among the disciples of the Yihe Gate, only Zhang Yu’s villa had many vacant rooms.
Used for some “special purposes”
Since Vermilion Bird didn’t want to say more, Zhang Yu took the hint.
As he stepped aside, he looked at Chen Sheng.
“Then, Little Brother Chen, you…”
“I’ll go find Shen Zi Ming,”
Chen Sheng answered without hesitation. Although it seemed more convenient to stay with Zhang Yu directly, Chen Sheng had initially planned to do so.
After all, from his earlier perception, Shen Zi Ming had already gone to bed.
Disturbing him would be a bit inappropriate.
But…
As Chen Sheng’s gaze passed over Zhang Yu and looked into the villa, he felt a creeping sensation on his scalp.
The interior decoration of the villa exuded an air of luxury everywhere.
Whether it was the crystal chandelier on the ceiling, or the expensive wooden floor.
The only unusual thing was that there were almost no ordinary household furniture in the downstairs hall.
Instead, there were some strangely-shaped objects.
For example, a swing with straps.
Or a rocking wooden horse.
“These… are for practicing—”
Zhang Yu noticed the unusual look in Chen Sheng’s eyes. He coughed twice and immediately tried to explain. “Brother Zhang, no need to explain.” Chen Sheng didn’t know what these were for, nor did he want to know. “I’ll take my leave!” Chen Sheng bowed and saluted.
Then, he took White Tiger and walked towards the foot of the mountain.
His movements were swift.
Zhu Que and Zhang Yu didn’t intend to stop him as they watched him leave.
“Little Brother Chen… is still young,”
Zhang Yu sighed, looking at Vermilion Bird.
The two exchanged a knowing look, smirking.
Everything was left unsaid.
“Zhang my friend, are we having a party tonight?”
“If Senior Vermilion Bird needs it, I can arrange it.”
“Good, good, you’re considerate.” Bang!
The door closed quickly, and hearty laughter echoed through the villa.
Vermilion Bird was quite familiar with Zhang Yu in the Yihe Gate, besides Sun
Yihe.
As for the reason, those who know, know.
Regarding Vermilion Bird and Zhang Yu’s affair, Chen Sheng pretended not to hear.
As he walked along the mountain path, only then did he feel his tense body gradually relaxing.
“Go that way.”
He informed White Tiger of the direction where Shen Zi Ming’s house was located, and directly rode on it, letting it carry him through the mountain forest.
He took a steamed rice flour meat from the bamboo basket, eagerly pinching a piece of meat and putting it into his mouth. Even though the steamed meat had cooled,
Chen Sheng tasted the sweet, soft and glutinous texture.
This showed how good Chen Danggui’s mother’s cooking was.
“It’s a pity,”
Chen Sheng couldn’t help but sigh.
If it weren’t for Xuanwu Vermilion Bird’s interference, he would have stayed near Datian Village for some more time, enjoying this delicacy longer.
Although he had already noticed that Chen Danggui sent him food for other purposes, honestly, in his spare time,
Chen Sheng didn’t mind guiding the little girl in martial arts.
It’s just a pity, that the worlds they lived in were different.
If nothing unexpected happened, he would probably not have the chance to see the little girl again.
With this in mind,
Chen Sheng refocused on the steamed rice flour meat in front of him.
White Tiger moved swiftly, treating the steep mountain path as if it was level ground.
Chen Sheng ate at a leisurely pace, right when White Tiger stopped, he finished eating.
The man and the tiger were now at the foot of a mountain inside the Yihe Gate
Headquarters.
Not far away, a very simple small wooden house caught Chen Sheng’s eye,
much like the wooden house where Shen Zi Ming had temporarily lived in Quanjiang City.
Chen Sheng?”
As a martial artist, Shen Zi Ming maintained basic vigilance.
Since Chen Sheng couldn’t suppress his own movements,
Shen Zi Ming had been waiting at the door before he arrived, assuming it was one of his fellow disciples.
He didn’t expect it would be Chen Sheng.
“Can I stay with you for the night?”
Chen Sheng asked with a smile.
“Of course, but you…”
In just a few days, although Chen Sheng’s appearance hadn’t changed much, the feeling he gave Shen Zi Ming was quite different.
It seemed… more unfathomable.
The presence of White Tiger, made Shen Zi Ming very curious as to why Chen Sheng would visit him at night. However, curiosity aside,
“Come in,”
He stepped aside.
“But it… I don’t think my room can accommodate.”
Shen Zi Ming’s wooden house was extremely small, barely suitable for two people to sleep in.
Let alone a giant beast like White Tiger.
“No problem, it can just guard the door..”
