Tian Gan didn't know what this mysterious man's sudden words meant, so he could only repeat them nonstop and carefully guess the person's intentions. In his mind, scenes that he had once been familiar with kept flashing by, but because his psychokinesis wasn't clear yet, the scenes were in disarray.
If one was not paying attention, one would not be able to see that it was abnormal at all. However, the moment that smile blossomed, an extremely uncoordinated hesitation appeared on the cheeks and cheeks of that face.
Tian Gan acted as if he had been pricked by a bee and flew out of the house straight to the next room.
Before he could figure out what was going on, he heard General Fan whisper in his ear, "General Fan, the situation is urgent. Please report back after you take care of it. Please quickly follow me!"
Hearing Tian Gan's solemn and low words, Fan Yuzheng naturally did not dare to hesitate. He hastily put on a robe and followed Tian Gan out the door. Since Tian Gan didn't stop at all, Fan Yicheng didn't have enough time to determine where Tian Gan was headed. He could only follow his footsteps and run forward.
Although Fan Yuzhen didn't have the time to discern that the sky was dry and was rushing out, on the way out, he more or less felt a sense of familiarity with this path. When he finally saw the ruins in front of him, he immediately realized that this place was the home of that filthy, stinking, deaf, and dumb native.
Tian Gan suddenly came back to this place. Could it be that he had discovered something?
This question arose in Fan Yuzhen's mind, but he didn't have time to ask because Heaven's work didn't give him any chance, and he had already flipped over the wall.
When Fan Xian followed him into the inner room, he saw Tian Gan using a wooden stick to brush away the burnt ashes on the ground. The sparks around the ashes were scattered, but it didn't seem like they were caused by the burning of the charcoal itself. He only muttered to himself, "He hasn't gone far. Perhaps he might still make it in time." Fan Yicheng knew that Tian Gan had designated the deaf and dumb native. Although he did not know why Tian Gan was so anxious to find the deaf and dumb man, from Tian Gan's actions and words, it must be related to the eldest son they were looking for.
However, even though the native hadn't walked far out of the wilderness, he didn't know which direction he had taken.
Vincent hesitated, and he was sure that Tian Gan would too, because going there was indeed the biggest problem at the moment.
But he had guessed wrongly. Tian Gan didn't hesitate at all. After exiting the door, he only shouted "General, this way!" and followed the wild road to the east.
This was the time of the next crescent moon's hiding time, thus Yue Ye was black. Even her last bit of moonlight had long since been covered by the black cloud, unable to reveal the slightest bit of brilliance. However, this kind of night was exactly what the hurrying figures longed for. This was because darkness was not exclusive to the word 'frightening'. Sometimes, it was also the best match for stealth.
There was a wheezing sound, a labored wheeze, that rose and fell in the silent night and seemed to be out of tune with the night. His feet were as heavy as lead, and his mouth was as if it was cracked from the pain. However, he was still unwilling to stop because he knew that if he did not try his best to escape now, Rao Yang would probably bury him.
Although he already felt that his disguise was flawless, he would never have expected that his plan to desperately flee had already been exposed. The people who had been bitterly searching for him for so many years still refused to give up.
"Sir, you have been living in Rao Yang for so many years. Why are you leaving without saying anything?" The running shadow in the night was suddenly startled by the sound of a distant but firm voice coming from his surroundings, and the busy footsteps under his feet also stopped.
"Who are you?" The black figure immediately became terrified. His originally tired body also began to tremble as he muttered to himself, "I've been hiding here for so many years. I've long ceased to participate in the affairs of the Qin. Why is Ying Zheng still not willing to let me go?"
It was obvious from the black figure's tone that he was the son of the Qin nation's patriarch that Fan Yicheng and Tian Gan had been searching for. It was a sound filled with despair and resentment. Cheng was like a frightened bird that had escaped from the clutches of the great general Wang Jian, who was under Ying Zheng's command. He had fled all the way to Zhao. Fortunately, the King of Zhao had taken them in and cut them off from the imperial court, in hopes of surviving in this world. Now that Ying Zheng was in a position to rule the world, they knew that someone had come to look for him, so if they didn't come for revenge, what else could they say?
"Young master, you're overthinking things. I'm not here to take the young lord's life. I have a great plan to discuss with the young lord." The man saw that the eldest young master seemed to be afraid, so he explained in a calm tone.
"Hahaha," Cheng Jiang suddenly laughed towards the sky with a face full of disbelief, "The Qin Nation is now a country ruled by the Ying Zheng, and I'm just a stray dog, so why would I dare to talk about the matter of the State? "Sir, please don't joke with Cheng."
"Young master, why do you have to be so self-deprecating? Don't tell me that you don't have the bravery you had when the report was sent for?" As soon as Cheng Yu finished his sentence, he heard another person criticizing him from the sidelines. There was a rough tone in his voice, as if he had just traveled a long way.
The voices were familiar, and the two men knew each other, for they had come to his lodgings this evening to inquire after him. One of them was good-looking, with a handsome look. The other was tall and sturdy, with a whiskered beard that hung below his chin. He looked like a valiant general. "And then there was someone who, although he was much older now, would never forget his imposing aura and appearance.
Cheng Yu turned to look at each other, only to see that the two of them had walked out from the shadows. One was the eldest disciple of the Mo family, Tian Gan, and the other was General Fan of the Lan Tian Army.
When Fan Yuzhen saw Cheng Yu, he immediately kneeled down to pay his respects, and spoke with a sense of remorse: "I, Fan, am looking forward to meeting Young Noble Zhuo."
Cheng Yu heard Fan Yicheng's words of self-blame, but he didn't acknowledge Fan Xian's words of apology. He only coldly ridiculed, "When General Fan failed to obtain Fan Xian's head, he went to Ying Zheng to ask for credit. Why, why do you go back on your words now?" "Could it be that today, I will be the one to take the credit in place of Wang Jian?"
When Fan Yuzhen heard this tone, he knew that Cheng still hated him for turning the tables when he seized the imperial power of the Qin nation. He bowed even more and said, "Of course I wouldn't dare."
"In the past, General Fan was deceived by an adulterer, so he made such a big mistake. Now, he often regrets over this matter and hopes that the Young Master will be able to take it easy." Tian Gan knew that the two of them had a grudge, so he came out to speak up for Fan Yuzheng.
Hearing the words of the man beside him, Cheng Yu turned his face to the side, and carefully sized up Tian Gan. In a low voice, he asked, "Which hero are you?"
"I am the eldest disciple of the Mo Clan, Tian Gan. Together with General Fan, I am here to pay my respects to the president." Tian Gan had something to ask him, so he cupped his fists and explained.
"The eldest disciple of the Mo family, Tian Gan?" Cheng Yu frowned, as if he did not understand, "Although I have not heard of your name before, but since you were able to see through my disguise, you can still be considered an outstanding individual."
"The eldest young master is extremely talented, and acting deaf and mute is even more vivid. Only with the help of a great patron could one be fortunate enough to expose the true identity of the eldest young master." Tian Gan felt guilty after being acknowledged by Cheng Yu. He immediately explained in a modest tone.
However, his explanation did not arouse much of a reaction from Cheng Yu Chen, but it made Fan Yu Chen who was kneeling down, shocked. He raised his hand and asked: "That dirty and unclean native is actually the eldest young master? Why can't this lowly general see it at all? "
Fan Xian's astonishment was within reason, because the well-dressed, refined, and refined Cheng was completely different from the ragged, stinking, deaf, and dumb youth. Fan Xian, who had known this to be the case, was completely oblivious to the fact that he was being concealed under his disguise, and was, of course, shocked.
"The eldest young master does not usually comb his face, only wear tattered clothes, and deliberately smeared black charcoal on his face. The black ink has completely changed his appearance, making it hard for ordinary people to recognize him. Not only that, in order to not let others recognize his voice, the eldest young master had even pretended to be deaf and mute, using his crippled body to make people stay away from him. From then on, it was as if he had disappeared from the Land of Rao Yang. " Tian Chanzi waved the feather fan in his hand, and occasionally drew circles with the handle of the feather fan as an explanation.
"So it's like that? No wonder even after we have searched for a long time, we have not found the slightest news about the eldest young master. " At this moment, Fan Yuzhen came to a sudden realization. He finally understood why nobody in Rao Yang had ever heard of this place before. The descendants of this noble prince lived here for a long time.
However, while he felt that he was stupid, Fan Xian also felt admiration for Tian Gan's intelligence. As a fool, he naturally wanted to know how this witty person could see through his flawless disguise, so he asked Tian Gan, "Brother Tian Gan, how did you see through my master's disguise?"
Tian Gan heard Fan Yicheng's question and couldn't help but sigh. "Speaking of which, I'm ashamed. The disguise of the eldest young master is indeed very profound. I didn't suspect him at first and thought that he was just a deaf person who wanted to leave with General Fan. Fortunately, with the guidance of a noble person, she suddenly recalled the expression that the eldest young master had when he was facing us in the day. At first, I didn't notice the shocked expression on the Eldest Young Master's face when he suddenly saw us. Instead, he cleverly covered it up with a smirk. Now that he thought about it, it must have been because the eldest young master saw the old division general Fan in the past but didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse, so he decided to cover it up and make plans. As for me, who was beside General Fan, I have never heard of Young Master Cheng. Furthermore, he was hiding something from the eldest young master, so the young master must have thought that the person was secretly sent to take his life.
After Tian Gan said that, Cheng Yu and Fan Yuzhen both stared at him, their faces showing surprise, but they didn't know what to say.
After a long while, Cheng Yu came to a realization and clasped his hands together, "This disciple from the Mo family is indeed cautious and meticulous. I admire him."
"Of course I don't deserve to be called the Heaven Saint Master. However, I have something to ask of you, young master. I hope you will accept it."
"Cheng Yu has already lost to a dead dog, and is only struggling at death's door, how can he have the ability to receive Young Noble's heavy request?" Hearing Tian Gan's words, Cheng Jiang only felt disdain in his heart, as if his spirit had been hurt.
At this time, Fan Xian saw that this was the case, and immediately stood up and said: "I can only blame myself for making a mistake in the past and for believing in the villainous villain. Now that Ying Zhenglong had settled down and appointed Seth as his trusted aide, he began to push aside and persecute the powerful officials of the previous dynasty. Wang Jian had been demoted, Han Fei had died due to injustice, and everyone in the empire was panic-stricken, because of Reese's overbearing attitude, the foundation of the Qin Dynasty was going to fall into the hands of someone with a different surname, so how could Eunuch Mu rest in peace? I hope that the eldest young master will let bygones be bygones and lead us to the old tribe, order for traitors, and consolidate the Great Qin Nation! "
"Oh?" When Cheng Yu Chen heard this, he was stunned, and then he slowly said, "I didn't expect the imperial court would experience such a huge change in just a few years."
"Tyrant Qin Wudao, using Li Si's plan to enter the Central Plains from the east as a strategy, plundering and killing everywhere in a short period of time. All the ambitious people in the world are fighting against each other, the eldest son is of the true dragon of the Qin Nation, if you can personally take charge of the situation, then you will be able to suppress the king and the citizens of the Qin Nation will definitely return to their families, each county will also surrender to the four seas." Tian Gan seemed to sigh as he continued to explain.
As for Cheng Yu, although he had a grudge against Fan Xian's initial betrayal, he was now living a life of desperation. Now that the State of Zhao had proclaimed itself to the Qin and no longer had a place to protect him, his head was in danger. If he did not rely on Fan Yu and Tian Gan's persuasion, what better way could he do? If he listened to Fan's plan, he would be able to accomplish his goals in the future. He would not have to worry about his own livelihood, and even if he had to gamble his own life, he would not hesitate to do so.
With a long sigh, he grabbed Fan Yicheng's hands and said, "General, you came all the way to Rao Yang to seek me out, and even if I had to rely on my own life or death, how could I ever miss you and reject you?"
"With young master's words, I, Fan Yicheng, will not refuse even if my head is covered with blood!" Fan Yuwen was very grateful for being able to get away with it, so he immediately dropped to his knees and kowtowed.
Just as Tian Gan was about to step forward and encourage them, he suddenly felt a shadow pass by behind them, and the next thing he knew was that the shadow was still floating above the walls of Cheng Yu's residence.
He knew clearly in his heart that the person who had helped him to find it was right behind him. He had been silently watching from the shadows, and now that he had succeeded, he left without a sound. But as someone who knew how to repay a favor, how could he let her go just like that?
He then said to Fan Yicheng, "Then I'll have to trouble General Fan to bring the eldest young master to your inn to rest for a while. Tian Gan will have to go and thank that esteemed guest."
Before he could even nod his head in agreement, Tian Gan had already flown away, chasing after the remnant Qi behind him.
