People in Terra, poor and weak but invincible

Chapter 875 Wei Yanwu's complete understanding of Qi Yan

The teacup touched the table, making a slight sound.

The man looked absent-mindedly at a strong bow hanging in the corner of the room.

"Duke Wei, are you interested in the weapons in my army's tent again?"

Inside the house, an old man wearing the black and red official robes of the Yan Kingdom spoke in a deep voice, and emphasized the word "again".

Wei Yanwu saw that his actions were misunderstood and shook his head repeatedly:

"How could that be? Brother Zuo, you must be joking. How could I, Wei Yanwu, be that kind of person?"

When the general of Yumen City, Pingsui Hou Zuo Xuanliao heard this, he tried his best to control his temper and said in a sarcastic tone:

"I am old, but I am not so old that I can't remember things. Ten years ago, Duke Wei made a bet with me and won the famous sword I just found. Five years ago, Duke Wei took away a bow given to me by the Tianshi Mansion while he was drunk."

Wei Yanwu wanted to pretend to be guilty and embarrassed, but he couldn't control his expression. He had to raise the teacup again and drink tea to hide the upturned corners of his mouth.

Zuo Xuanliao took a breath and sighed helplessly:

"Never mind, it's just some jokes. Longmen has been supplying materials to Yumen for so many years. Moreover, the handover is in progress now. It's only right that I give you a few gifts."

"You said that as if I were bullying you."

Wei Yanwu said this as he stood up and walked towards the powerful bow.

Zuo Xuanliao: “…”

Wei Yanwu took off the bow, held it in his hand and casually tested the bowstring, then kindly reminded:

"I'm leaving with Longmen, so prepare yourself."

"So urgent?" Zuo Xuanliao was a little surprised.

"It's urgent."

The joy of getting a free ride faded from Wei Yanwu's face, and he said bitterly, "If you don't leave now, I will also experience what you are feeling now."

Zuo Xuanliao:?

My current mood... Being blackmailed and robbed, and having my favorite weapons looted?

Or, what kinds of troubles will be encountered when returning to Beijing from Yumen?

After a moment's reaction, Zuo Xuanliao was puzzled and asked tentatively:

"What about the Grand Tutor's return to the capital?"

Wei Yanwu shook his head.

Zuo Xuanliao continued, "What about Master Zhongyue's resignation?"

Wei Yanwu continued to shake his head.

Seeing that Zuo Xuanliao was unable to come to a conclusion after trying back and forth, Wei Yanwu had no choice but to reveal the truth:

"If Qi Yan comes, Yumen will be in chaos."

"...I heard from the Grand Tutor that he has reached some kind of consensus with Qi Yan." Zuo Xuanliao frowned and said, "Logically speaking, the Grand Tutor has already given his trust to Qi Yan, so Yumen will not suffer too great a disaster."

"Look at what you said, as if Qi Yan is some kind of disaster star."

Wei Yanwu actually chose to speak up for Qi Yan.

This made Zuo Xuanliao even more confused, and he couldn't figure out Wei Yanwu's exact stance.

He tried hard to recall the information about Qi Yan and asked suspiciously, "Isn't he a disaster enough?"

"Brother Zuo, listen to my advice." Wei Yanwu said seriously, "Don't approach Qi Yan with this mentality. Rather than thinking of him as a disaster star, I recommend that you think of him as a special messenger.

Just like the Messenger of the Scourge, it is not that wherever the Messenger of the Scourge appears, there will be a disaster, but wherever there is a disaster, the Messenger of the Scourge appears."

"So, Yumen is really going to encounter a disaster?"

"I'm afraid it's a disaster."

"Why?"

"Because Qi Yan came with people." Wei Yanwu confirmed, "The last time he gathered people for a long time before he was killed was Victoria."

Zuo Xuanliao was speechless for a moment.

Wei Yanwu reminded again: "The matter of the Grand Tutor returning to the capital is a little strange. Be prepared. This is the first time I have sensed his urgency from the letter he sent."

"That's going to be a big deal."

Zuo Xuanliao lowered his head and recalled the letter that the Grand Tutor had sent him alone. The content of the letter was very short, with only four words "Return to the Capital from Yumen".

But Zuo Xuanliao understood one thing.

Fewer words mean bigger things!

Zuo Xuanliao raised his eyes and looked at Wei Yanwu: "I think Duke Wei reminded me on purpose, he must have some ideas, why not say it clearly."

Wei Yanwu hung the bow behind his back with skillful movements and said concisely:

"Throw the Grandmaster out to attract Qi Yan's attention, and you lead Yumen to reduce your presence."

Zuo Xuanliao: “…”

In silence, footsteps approached from outside the door.

As the two watched, a man in a white shirt and a black coat walked into the house.

The man has a calm temperament, with dragon horns on his head and his sturdy arms are painted with the unique style of the Sui family. The main body of the painting is black with dark gold lines outlined on it.

After walking into the house with steady steps, the man smiled faintly and nodded to the two people in the house.

"Grandmaster, you are here."

Wei Yanwu greeted the other party as usual, as if he had never said anything bad about the other party.

Zhong Yue walked to the table in front of the two of them, pulled over a chair and sat down, then greeted Wei Yanwu:

"Long time no see."

"Yes, it's a pity that our meeting is short. I'm ready to leave." Wei Yanwu did not return to his seat.

"So urgent?" Zhongyue was a little surprised.

"He was frightened by Qi Yan, so he was in a hurry to seek refuge." Zuo Xuanliao revealed Wei Yanwu's thoughts without hesitation.

Wei Yanwu was not annoyed. Instead, he raised his eyebrows with interest. He had already begun to wonder how much trouble Zuo Xuanliao would have to suffer at Qi Yan's hands before he would behave himself.

Seeing the two bickering, Zhongyue decided to change the subject and bring the incident to himself:

"Now that Yumen is about to return to the capital, my identity is inconvenient, so I am ready to resign from all my duties in Yumen. You are already aware of this, and the Grand Tutor has agreed."

Wei Yanwu immediately asked, "Master, thank you for your hard work. Are you planning to leave Yumen these days?"

Compared with Zuo Xuanliao, he showed more concern for Zhongyue.

Pay attention to the movement trajectory of this player who can clearly attract Qi Yan's movements, and be prepared to avoid him at any time.

Zuo Xuanliao was more concerned about another matter: "Master, do you have a plan to properly dispose of your sword?"

Seeing that Zuo Xuanliao was talking about serious matters, Zhongyue explained:

"Yumen is a martial arts-loving place, and I am also a martial artist, so my idea is to decide who keeps the sword on the Yumen Arena. Whoever comes out on top will get the sword."

"Isn't this a bit too casual?" Zuo Xuanliao asked worriedly.

He knew clearly in his heart that Zhongyue's sword was not one of the famous swords he had collected.

Seal in Zhongyue's sword is Zhongyue's former name and his body as the agent of the Sui Beast.

And the Zhongyue sitting in front of him and Wei Yanwu at this moment was just a human body shaped by power.

Zhong Yue had obviously anticipated Zuo Xuan Liao's concerns and said with a faint smile:

"Of course it won't be that easy. Martial arts is only the first test. I have other considerations as to whether it is worth entrusting the sword to others.

I know General Zuo has some opinions on the disposal of the sword, but for me, this sword should be entrusted to a suitable person, not a suitable situation. I hope you can forgive me."

"That's natural." Zuo Xuanliao did not force the matter.

"You two are discussing serious matters, so I won't bother you for now."

Wei Yanwu picked up the teapot on the table, poured tea for Zuo Xuanliao and Zhongyue, and then walked away with the teapot in his unclean hands.

Zuo Xuanliao opened his mouth but ultimately did not ask Wei Yanwu to stay, allowing him to leave with his beloved purple clay teapot.

After Wei Yanwu left, Zhongyue couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Even if Duke Wei wanted to avoid Qi Yan, he wouldn't be so anxious, right?"

Zuo Xuanliao snorted, "He might be afraid that I would expose his bad idea to others and get punched by you."

"How could I do such a thing?" Zhongyue said calmly with a smile, "What idea did Lord Wei come up with?"
