Chapter 87: Merciful Cause and Merciful Effect Part Two
Fang Jie quickly went over the plan, and Da Quan sighed, “I’m afraid that we will bring trouble to Ms. Xi.”
“It is alright; Ms. Xi will be able to explain herself. If someone tries to investigate, she could say that a few servants of Beckon of the Red Sleeve got knocked out, and their clothes were taken. This will be a dead end.”
Fang Jie jumped onto the horse-drawn carriage and swung the horsewhip, and the horse neighed and slowly pulled the carriage out of the backyard of Beckon of the Red Sleeve.
Before leaving, Fang Jie glanced at the three warhorses from Northern Liao; he looked sad.
Those three horses were exceptional, especially the red one.
In an alleyway, Luo Wen hid at a corner and watched Fang Jie leave Beckon of the Red Sleeve on the horse-drawn carriage. He ordered Luo Two, “Monitor them and see where he goes. If he is heading out of the city, don’t do anything yet; wait until he is out. If he is going anywhere else, follow him and kill him tonight.”
“Ok!” Luo Wen nodded and quickly left with a few other servants.
Tens of kilometers away from Chang’an, a handsome young man in white patted the forehead of a white tiger. He looked at the Capital of Great Sui that could be roughly seen and murmured, “Go hide in the forest and find food if you are hungry. However, remember not to kill anyone. This isn’t Great Snow Mountain; devils and demons are everywhere, and they don’t even respect buddhas, let alone you, a beast who guards the gate on Great Snow Mountain. If you die here… it is in your fate.”
As if the white tiger understood him, it jumped into the forest.
This young man in white tidied up his clothes and slowly walked on the public road. The Capital of Great Sui was inches away, yet he looked extremely calm.
…
The horse-drawn carriage was steady and slow. Da Quan got the horsewhip from Fang Jie’s hand and asked, “What should we do if we get blocked at the gate?”
Fang Jie seemed absent-minded; no one knew what he was thinking about. Hearing Da Quan’s question, he replied, “If the soldiers at the gate want to search, we will just let them. Now, we have no other options. We can only try our luck. Only that level 9 master saw Chen Qingshan’s face; he couldn’t be guarding all these gates of Chang’an, right?”
“Eh,” Da Quan nodded, but he didn’t seem confident.
“What are you thinking about?” Da Quan asked after a moment of silence.
Fang Jie looked at the shops on the streets and all the pedestrians, and he smiled powerlessly while saying, “Not long ago, we were thinking about how to survive in the Capital. We were trying to do some business to earn money, and we two found a shop that is at a good location and is for sale. We were only a step away from negotiating the price with the owner. That shop is good; it is unfortunate.”
Da Quan knew that Fang Jie wasn’t referring to that shop when he said that this was unfortunate.
“Perhaps we will be back,” Da Quan said.
“Who knows?” Fang Jie said feelingly, “In the last 15 years, we haven’t been to the same place twice. I don’t know if we can come back to the Capital, but I know that we can’t go back to Fangu anymore. Now, we need to think about where to go.”
Da Quan thought for a bit and asked, “Aside from the Capital, where else is the safest in Great Sui?”
“Pure Joy Mountain,” Fang Jie replied without needing to think.
“Great, we will go to Pure Joy Mountain then,” Da Quan replied.
Fang Jie shook his head and said, “Even if we go to Pure Joy Mountain, we can’t enter One Qi Daoist Temple since I can’t cultivate. How could we be safe if we don’t enter One Qi Daoist Temple? There are countless factions in Great Sui, but none of them is open to me.”
Da Quan was unwilling to give up and took Fang Jie’s pulse. Then, his eyes brightened.
“Three now,” he said in surprise.
Fang Jie froze for a second before asking Da Quan, “You sure?”
Da Quan nodded and didn’t know what to say.
After a moment of silence, Fang Jie suddenly said in a quiet voice, “There is something strange going on, and I didn’t tell anyone. I don’t know what is going on, so I’m a bit anxious.”
Fang Jie found a bowl and placed it on his right hand with his left hand. Then, his right hand clenched and shattered the bowl! The chipped porcelain pieces created a series of crisp sounds when they landed on the ground.
Da Quan’s eyes opened wide, and he looked shocked. “You recovered?”
“It is alright; Ms. Xi will be able to explain herself. If someone tries to investigate, she could say that a few servants of Beckon of the Red Sleeve got knocked out, and their clothes were taken. This will be a dead end.”
