Chapter 433 Courage and Wisdom
Yang He never thought that one day he would plot against the leader whom he usually worshipped as a god together with someone he had known for only half a month.
But Zhao Yushu always has a way to make you think in the direction he wants. He doesn't need to instill anything in you. He just needs to point out a little flaw, and then you will doubt and prove it yourself, and eventually go the same way as him.
This kind of person should be quite suitable to be an emperor.
"Go to hell, that chair annoys me."
Zhao Yushu said so.
"As a friend, I still think it would be better if you invite the old immortal to come."
"I know. Don't worry. I still say the same thing. I won't take the initiative to harm your leader."
"So what are you going to do now?"
"Now," Zhao Yushu touched his chin, "of course I'm going to meet Yan Hui."
When the weak wields the sword against the strong, what is needed is not only courage but also wisdom.
The leader needs time, so I can't give him time. Compared to Yan Hui who doesn't want to kill me for the time being, Zhao Yushu is more afraid of this hidden leader.
Since you don't reveal any flaws, I will force you to create flaws.
Zhao Yushu politely declined Yang He's request to accompany him out of the city, said hello to Lan Ling, and walked out of the East Gate alone.
If I haven't returned before dark, Yang He will send Lan Ling and Hei Lu away from Yuezhou as soon as possible, and collect the bodies later. There is a high probability that I have been taken to Dabei Temple.
The leader listened to the report from the city gate officer and said lightly, "I understand."
Zhao Yushu was more alert than he thought.
Ever since Yang He revealed his attitude towards the academy to him last night, he knew that the relationship between Yang He and Zhao Yushu was beyond his control, so when he went to see Yan Hui, he deliberately did not bring Yang He with him.
But Yan Hui's arrival was no secret, so when he saw Zhu Huo walking with Zhao Yushu on his way back to the city, he immediately realized that Zhao Yushu might have already known about it.
In less than a day, the other party swaggered out of East City. Where did he get the courage?
The leader is very cautious. Caution means that he dare not make overly bold guesses based on a small amount of information. This is completely different from Zhao Yushu.
At this moment, Zhao Yushu guessed most of the truth and dared to use half of his life to verify his guess, while the leader only dared to confirm that Zhao Yushu knew that Yan Hui was coming.
In the invisible confrontation between the two, Zhao Yushu finally won.
The leader stood up, then sat down again, and he hesitated, which was rare.
I don't have enough time.
He pondered for a full quarter of an hour. The leader rarely pondered for so long on one thing or one person.
Finally, the leader stood up again and seemed to have made some kind of decision.
"Call Yang He over."
Zhao Yushu walked all the way to Shili Pavilion but still didn't see the old monk. He felt quite distressed. Could it be that he guessed wrong?
What if Yan Hui had already left? When I return to the city, I will be laughed to death by them.
Zhao Yushu scratched his head. Should he go a little further?
However, he didn't have to go. A gust of wind blew, and under the dark clouds in the east, an old monk with unsteady gaits was walking towards him step by step towards the setting sun.
Regret.
"Mr. Liu, we meet again."
"Master Yan Hui is following very closely."
Yan Hui clasped his hands together and saluted, but he had no choice. No matter how annoying the other person was, he was still a senior master. Based on the etiquette of the academy, Zhao Yushu could only return the greeting.
"I didn't expect the leader to make a decision so quickly."
"There are so many things you haven't thought of. So, Master, are you going to take me away by force, or do you want to talk first?"
Yan Hui smiled and said, "My legs and feet are not convenient for me. Can you allow me to sit in the pavilion for a while?"
Zhao Yushu turned sideways, Yan Hui walked over with a smile, and sat cross-legged on the ground.
"Master, won't you come into the city?"
"Haha, this pavilion is probably the limit of what the leader can tolerate. If it weren't for Mr. Liu's face, I wouldn't dare to come here. The monks in Dabei Temple are all ascetics. They are content with a piece of tile to cover the roof. If Mr. Liu doesn't mind, please sit down together."
Zhao Yushu shrugged and sat down: "Ask whatever you want to ask. Maybe you can get the answer today. You don't have to tie me up and take me to Dabei Temple, right?"
Yan Hui nodded: "Who are you?"
"Zhao Yushu."
Yan Hui laughed: "Let's go to Dabei Temple."
Zhao Yushu wanted to hit someone, but this old monk was indeed not easy to fool.
"Where has the Master been lately?"
Zhao Yushu looked like he was chatting.
"Mr. Liu is extremely smart. I won't say anything."
Well, this old monk has been fooled once and has learned his lesson. He doesn’t say a word and doesn’t give himself any chance to reason.
"Since you don't want to chat, why are you still sitting here, Master? Why don't you take me away quickly? Aren't you afraid that something might happen if you delay?"
"Mr. Liu is absolutely right. If we delay, something will happen. Mr. Liu, where do you think the change will happen?"
He is trying to trick me.
Zhao Yushu narrowed his eyes and thought quickly in his mind, what is Yan Hui waiting for? For him, wouldn't the best result be for him to take the initiative to walk up to him?
Is he waiting for his teacher or senior brother to save him?
No, he is waiting for the leader.
Before they finished their thoughts, they both looked up in the direction of Yuezhou almost at the same time. Even with Yan Hui's great concentration, he could not hide the horror in his eyes.
A beam of fire shot up into the sky, obscuring the light of the setting sun. A huge red lotus shadow slowly spread out, covering the entire Yuezhou City.
Purifying red lotus.
"What is the leader doing?"
Zhao Yushu couldn't understand it at all. It looked like some kind of formation was being activated.
"The leader has locked Yuezhou City with the Purifying Red Lotus. From now on, any cultivator who dares to enter or leave Yuezhou without the leader's consent will be attacked by an inner scene and a heavenly treasure at the same time. I know I have thick skin and flesh, so I dare not take more than a few hits."
Zhao Yushu's face changed. Compared to this old monk, the eldest brother who played with speed would probably be even less resistant to attacks.
"Ha, the leader used his ultimate move too late. If he wanted to protect me, he shouldn't have let me leave the city."
Yan Hui smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, if you go back now, I will not stop you. I believe the leader will definitely let you enter the city."
This old bald donkey has a conspiracy!
I deliberately went out of the city alone, just to force the leader to take action, betting that he would not easily take sides before everything was ready. However, the leader directly used the tortoise shell tactic, and I haven't returned yet.
It wouldn't make sense for Yan Hui to let go of such a good opportunity and not take me away.
Zhao Yushu miscalculated a move and almost lost everything. At this moment, the sound of horse hooves came from afar and people came from the city.
He thought it was Yang He.
The one who came was Fang Sanniang.
"Master, Mr. Six, the leader asked me to bring you two a message."
"What?"
"The time has not yet come."
The same sentence is given to two people. They hear the same thing but understand it differently.
Yan Hui laughed and made a gesture to see the guest off.
Zhao Yushu's face was solemn, and he slowly left along with Sanniang, whose face was so gloomy that it looked as if water was dripping out of it.
"I thought it would be Yang He who came."
Sanniang glanced at him.
"Yang He is missing."
