Chapter 77: The Real Purpose of Getting Married

Lou Yun looked at the closed town gate and obviously couldn't accept this fact. Since Han Tianxiao and the others were not in the town, they must have left. From this town to Canglan Kingdom, there was only the only way they were standing now. He paid attention to the situation on the avenue all night. It was absolutely impossible for them to pass the avenue without discovering it.

That means there is only one possibility, they walked from another city gate, that is, the direction they came from!

No, there is another possibility, that is, they were caught by the people of Sanhe Kingdom and took them away from the town overnight, but it was not right. Even if they were taken away, they would definitely go to the capital of Sanhe Kingdom. They had to go through this necessary path. It was impossible to send them back directly!

Shaking his head, Lou Yun felt that if he continued to analyze this, his mind would explode sooner or later. Now if he wanted to know what was going on, the best way was to go into the city and ask!

Lou Yun came to the place where Wan Huier was hiding and expressed his discovery and thoughts. Wan Huier anxiously said: "No, now there are soldiers in the city. Brother Lou, if you go in, you will definitely be discovered!"

Lou Yun smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not so easy to be caught, and I'm not going in openly, I must disguise myself."

Lou Yun’s so-called disguise is to make some stains on his face, rub his clothes and wrinkle his hair, roll up his trouser legs, and then ask Changxiang to help hide his cultivation. In this way, he looks like an ordinary farmer boy.

Finally, Lou Yun took off the sword in the stone on his body and handed it to Wan Huier and said, "Hui'er, I'll go in while it's dark. As long as I hear the news, I'll come out immediately. You'll wait for me here. Unless I show up in person, no matter what sound you hear or what you find, don't come out! Do you know?"

Wan Huier nodded vigorously and said, "Brother Lou, don't worry about me, you must be careful yourself, Huier is waiting for you to come back here!"

Lou Yun smiled and stretched out his finger and poked Wan Huier's forehead gently and said, "Don't worry, wait for me to come back!"

After saying that, he turned around and left

With the protection of the night, Lou Yun successfully entered the city, and then moved quickly under the shadow of various buildings like a raccoon cat.

The city is indeed very cautious, and many soldiers are patrolling, and there is almost no ordinary person on the street. However, Changxiang's reminder made Lou Yun easily avoid these soldiers, and then came to the inn where Han Tianxiao and others lived.

Not far away is where Huo Yong fought yesterday. At this time, the body of Huo Yong and the executioner were naturally gone, but there were some dry blood stains on the ground.

Lou Yun glanced at it and entered the inn. Although it was not too late, because of the tense atmosphere in the town, there was no one in the inn, only a guy who was dozing off on the counter.

Hearing someone coming in, the guy opened his sleepy eyes and said, "Objectively, are you staying?"

Lou Yun walked over, reached out to take out a gold coin and said, "If you don't stay, I'll ask you a few questions!"

The young man was so old that he had never seen a real gold coin. His eyes were staring straight and he nodded repeatedly, "Objectively, if you want to know, just ask!"

"Last night, was there a group of people staying at your inn?"

"Well, there are fifty or sixty people, men and women, they live in our inn!" The young man suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Objectively, aren't those people good people?"

Lou Yun was too lazy to answer his question: "When did they leave and where did they go?"

"They left in the middle of the night, and like thieves, silently. I don't know where they went, but I helped them lead the horse and saw that they were leaving towards the city gate over there."

The direction of the guy's finger was exactly the direction of Lou Yun and his team entering the city yesterday, which means they did go the way they came from.

The young man was still saying: "Not long after they left, a group of soldiers came from the city and closed the entire city!"

Lou Yun nodded and said, "I understand, okay, I'm leaving. Remember, don't tell anyone about what I have been here, otherwise, be careful not to spend money but no life!"

After saying that, Lou Yun left, and at this time his heart was full of doubts. Han Tianxiao and the others actually left in the middle of the night yesterday. Obviously, they were not taken away by the people of Sanhe Kingdom, but why did they leave from the way they came? Did they go back to the ancient Feng Kingdom along the original route?

It makes no sense. The mission has not been completed yet, and Huier is not in the team. It would be no benefit for them to return to the ancient Feng Kingdom like this!

Changxiang suddenly said coldly: "Boy, I think they should have abandoned you on purpose!"

"Why?"

Changxiang did not answer Lou Yun, but said in his heart: "Hmph, Old Man Feng, Xia Guanqiu, you are all fools. There is a Han family among the nine clans. Isn't Han Tianxiao the surname Han? Why didn't you think of him? He might also be a member of the nine clans. He had discovered Lou Yun long ago, but he couldn't find the opportunity to attack Lou Yun, and just took this opportunity to attack Lou Yun!"

Changxiang knew that if he was not very sure, he could never tell Lou Yun, because Lou Yun valued friends very much and was loyal. In his heart, Han Tianxiao was both his teacher and his friend.

Lou Yun did not get Changxiang's answer, nor did he continue to ask. In fact, with his intelligence, he naturally knew that Changxiang's words were indeed a possibility, but there was no reason for this possibility, so he did not believe it.

When Lou Yun appeared in front of Wan Huier, although the two had been separated for only more than half an hour, Wan Huier rushed to Lou Yun's arms excitedly. Before she could speak, two lines of tears had already flowed down her eyes.

Although Wan Huier is a tomboy's personality, she is only sixteen years old. Besides, no matter how poor his father is, she is also a member of the royal family. She has been rich and spoiled since childhood. How can she be like today? When she is hiding alone in the wilderness, she is worried about whether she will encounter any bad people, and she is also worried about Lou Yun whether he will have any accidents.

Now that he saw Lou Yunping's return, Wan Huier's tense heart finally relaxed, and tears of grievance naturally fell down.

Wan Huier's actions shocked Lou Yun. He thought she had encountered some danger. However, after scanning the surroundings, he didn't even have a single figure. Looking at the surrounding environment, he immediately understood. So he patted Wan Huier's shoulder with guilt and said, "Don't cry, it's not good for brother. You shouldn't leave you here alone. I promise not next time!"

It would be fine if he didn't say it, but Wan Huier cried even more sadly, making Lou Yun feel helpless and coaxed for a long time before he could only coax it.

After stopping crying, Wan Huier immediately began to ask about Lou Yun’s experience in the city. Originally, Lou Yun didn’t want to tell her, but when she thought that this matter had a very important relationship with her, she still told her.

After hearing this, Wan Huier's first reaction was to slap her hands and jump up, yelling excitedly: "That's great, I'll be completely free!"

Lou Yun looked at her helplessly, but he felt a little irritated because he didn't know what he should do next, should he take Wan Huier to Canglan Kingdom, or should he take Wan Huier back to the ancient feudal country?

Going to Canglan Kingdom is equivalent to completely destroying Wan Huier's future freedom. When returning to the ancient vestigation country, there will inevitably be another person escorting Wan Huier to Canglan Kingdom again. To be honest, Lou Yun is really concerned about the future of his newly recognized sister now.

Seeing that Lou Yun didn't speak, Wan Huier stopped making trouble and asked in a low voice: "Brother Lou, what are you thinking?"

Lou Yun sighed and said his thoughts. Wan Huier fell into silence after hearing this. After a long time, she raised her head and took a deep breath. It seemed that she had made some decision and said to Lou Yun: "Brother Lou, my father only has me as a daughter. When I was a child, I really wanted to have an older brother who could take care of me and love me. Now that I meet you, I really treat you as my brother, so I don't want to hide it from you!"

Lou Yun looked at Wan Huier and said in confusion: "What are you hiding from me?"

"Actually, my trip to Canglan Kingdom this time was not an order given by the king, but a proposal from my father!"

"The Sixth Prince wants you to marry into Canglan Kingdom?"

"Well, my father suggested to the king that marrying me to Canglan Kingdom can win over the relationship between the two countries, so as to unite and eliminate the small countries of Sanhe Kingdom, and enhance the territory and strength of my ancient vassal state."

Lou Yun's brows couldn't help but frown. He couldn't imagine why Wan Huier's father did this.

"In fact, this is just the father's suggestion to the king, and his real purpose is not to consider the ancient feudal state at all, he is entirely considering his own future."

Lou Yun didn't ask, now he had vaguely guessed the truth of the facts

"The real purpose of the father is to use the power of Canglan Kingdom to help him become the king of the ancient vassal state. After the matter is completed, he will join forces with Canglan Kingdom to attack the small countries of Sanhe Kingdom. After winning, all of these small countries will be given to Canglan Kingdom, and he himself does not want anything!"

"And this time I went, I didn't marry a prince, but a king of Canglan Kingdom, as a hostage to help my father's king in Canglan Kingdom!"

Wan Huier let out a long breath. She had been holding these words in her heart for a long time, but she could not find anyone to talk to. She said them in front of Lou Yun today, which made her feel relaxed.

Lou Yun looked at Wan Huier with pity. He really didn't expect that this little girl who looked like a tomboy would have carried so many things on her body. Not only was she not crushed, she could still talk and laugh and pretend to be nothing. How could ordinary people do this mind!

After pondering for a while, Lou Yun said, "Hui'er, I'll ask you something now, do you want to marry the king of Canglan Kingdom?"

Wan Huier smiled bitterly and shook her head and said, "Brother Lou, do you think I would think? Of course I don't want to, but I don't want to go against my father's words and don't want to disappoint him, so I just want to enjoy a real life before I become a hostage!"

These words made Lou Yun feel deeply moved, but it also made him make a decision: "Hui'er, since this is the case, let's continue to go to Canglan Country. I will satisfy your wish. Before entering Canglan Country, I will accompany you and let you enjoy a real life, okay?"

Wan Huier wiped away the tears from her face hard, nodded excitedly and said, "Okay!"

Seeing that Wan Huier was happy, a trace of loneliness flashed inevitably on her face, Lou Yun smiled in his heart: "Little girl, when you arrive in Canglan Country, I'm waiting for me to give you a huge surprise!"

Since Lou Yun has made up his mind to help Wan Huier, of course he will not just let her live a real life so simply. He wants to help her and give her a brand new life!

"Okay, since that's the case, let's set off. The road ahead is still long!"

"Yeah, OK!"

So, Lou Yun took Wan Huier and the two continued to move towards the direction of Canglan Kingdom.

Because of Wan Huier, Lou Yun did not think about Han Tianxiao and the others' departure for the time being, but in his heart, there was a stone blocking him, and he didn't know when he would be able to move it away!
