Chapter 598 Temples and Heaven!
Chapter 598 Temple...and Heaven!
After hearing Yamu's words, Chen Pingping quickly analyzed the meaning of Yamu's words.
There is no doubt that Yamu's target is indeed Fan Xian, but he seems to have no ill intentions toward Fan Xian, just like himself. Instead, he seems to be examining Fan Xian's character and methods.
...just like he is doing now.
Referring to others, Chen Pingping asked Fan Xian to interrogate the manager to see if he was qualified to inherit the Supervisory Council.
What about Yamu?
Why did he want to inspect Fan Xian?
Could it be that just like the story Fan Xian made up, Ya Mu also wanted to find a qualified disciple?
Countless thoughts flashed through Chen Pingping's mind in an instant.
But no matter how shrewd he was, there was no way he could have guessed the existence of the Traveler Alliance.
This is a limitation of vision, a barrier of knowledge that ordinary people cannot break free from.
Yamu looked at Chen Pingping quietly, and suddenly his figure blurred for a moment.
Chen Pingping felt a strong wind blowing in her ears. The next second, the two hands pushing the wheelchair slowly let go, and the figure of the man in black robe and mask fell to the side without warning.
"thump!"
A black figure fell in his peripheral vision.
Chen Pingping was shocked, but her face remained expressionless.
"You want to kill me?"
Yamu shook his head and said, "It's just that some private words are not convenient for him to hear."
Chen Pingping composed herself and said coldly: "What do you want to say?"
Yamu said calmly: "I know your plan and what you want to do, but don't worry, I won't stop you, let alone take Fan Xian away forcibly, and don't let your imagination run wild."
"The existence behind me is far beyond what you can imagine."
Chen Pingping frowned slightly: "So, you are not from the temple, but there is another force behind it."
Yamu sighed after hearing this. As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Pingping started to think wildly again.
Chen Pingping didn't care and continued to stare at Yamu and asked: "How does the existence behind you compare to the temple?"
Seeing Chen Pingping being so persistent, Yamu had no choice but to say, "Has Ye Qingmei told you the story of Journey to the West?"
"...mentioned a few words."
"That's easy to explain. If the temple is a temple on earth, then we are a temple in heaven."
...Heaven?
Chen Pingping looked at Yamu blankly, as if it was difficult to imagine that there was anything more noble than the temple in this world.
"Don't try to trick me!" Chen Pingping suddenly spoke, as if she was refuting Ya Mu, but also as if she was trying to convince herself, "You are just a grand master. What do you think about heaven? Do you really think I will believe it?!"
Yamu glanced at him: "Believe it or not, it's up to you, we don't care."
After saying that, Yamu turned around without hesitation and walked towards the secret room.
When he reached the secret door, Yamu suddenly stopped and said without looking back: "In the next three days, remove all the people you have deployed around Fan Xian. As long as I am here, Fan Xian is the most powerful person in the world." Safe people.”
Chen Pingping said coldly: "What if I don't do it?"
Yamu said nonchalantly: "Then you will see them here."
With that said, Yamu raised his hand and inserted it into the gap in the wall, and opened the secret door as easily as pushing open a sliding door.
The rough movements without hesitation caused the layers of machinery in the wall to crack, and the sound of twisted metal creaked.
The dark stone brick wall also cracked and cracked as the metal structure was destroyed.
After he opened the secret door very roughly and walked out of the secret room, Yamu turned around again, nodded towards Chen Pingping who was sitting in the wheelchair with a blank look on his face, and then politely closed the loose secret door again.
The door closed with a friction sound. Chen Pingping frowned and looked at the wall strangely, as if she could see Yamu's back through the wall.
"Heaven..."
Chen Pingping murmured to herself, then suddenly raised the corner of her mouth and chuckled softly: "I am really looking forward to it now. If the so-called heaven really exists, then your majesty, what do you think of the fame and hegemony that you long for in your life? "
"After all, the only ones who are qualified to join the game are the young lady's flesh and blood!"
Speaking of this, Chen Pingping couldn't help but laugh. The laughter was long and full of joy.
…
…
"What laughing?"
Yamu glanced at the secret door behind him in surprise, then returned to the fork in the road and looked at Fan Xian who was interrogating Si Lili.
At this time, the charming woman was huddled in the corner of the cell. Fan Xian was squatting in front of her, holding a porcelain bottle in his hand. He looked very much like a bad young man who forced a good family woman to drink aphrodisiacs.
Not long after, the woman spit out a name with a pale face.
After receiving the name, Fan Xian put away the porcelain bottle, thanked him calmly, and then turned and left.
"Did you ask?"
"Asked."
Fan Xian nodded and kept passing by Ya Mu.
"The man who came into contact with her is named Wu Bo'an. He is a famous person in Kyoto. He has always been hovering between the second prince and the prince. He seems to have no obvious tendency, but now it seems that he has made his own choice."
Wang Qinian hesitated and said: "But sir, how can you be sure that what Si Lili said is true?"
As Fan Xian walked, he replied calmly: "It's very simple. If that Wu Bo'an is still in Beijing, it's not him. If he has run away, it's him!"
Hearing Fan Xian's calm words, Ya Mu had a thoughtful look on his face.
As far as he knows, in the TV series, the assassination on Niulan Street was instigated by the eldest princess behind the scenes, and the one who really planned it was the second son of the prime minister, Lin Gong, who was also Fan Xian's second brother-in-law.
Although Lin Gong was not a very good person, he was very good to his sister Lin Wan'er, and Lin Wan'er also respected this brother very much. If he killed him, it would definitely cause a rift between him and Lin Wan'er.
Therefore, after investigating Lin Gong's identity, Fan Xian was very entangled and didn't know whether to take revenge on his second brother-in-law.
But in the novel, the one who planned the case was actually a counselor named Wu Bo'an. He was hovering between the second prince and the crown prince on the surface, but in fact he had already secretly surrendered to the prime minister Lin Ruofu.
For this assassination, he first approached Lin Ruofu, but Lin Ruofu strongly opposed the plan, so he approached the second son, and Lin Gong, who had long been extremely annoyed with Fan Xian, was indeed very enthusiastic.
So, the two began to secretly operate these things.
Since Fan Xian asked Si Lili about Wu Bo'an's name, it means that the Niulan Street assassination in this world is a plot in the novel.
Of course, whether it is a novel or a TV series, the second son of the prime minister, Lin Gong, is an extremely entangled existence for Fan Xian.
Fortunately, Fan Xian in this world did not suffer any losses due to the assassination.
The conflict between him and Lin Gong did not intensify to the point where he had to decide life and death.
Moreover, with the existence of Wu Bo'an, the second son Lin Gong was just a fool who was bewitched.
Let Fan Xian decide his life and death...
Ya Mu thought so while leaving the Tianlao with Fan Xian.
…
…
After leaving the Tianlao, Fan Xian sent Wang Qinian to check the news of Wu Bo'an.
And he himself returned to the bookstore that had not yet opened with Ya Mu.
After changing clothes and walking out of the room, an unexpected boy appeared in front of Fan Xian.
"Fan Sizhe, why are you here?"
Fan Xian looked at the slightly fat boy in front of him in surprise.
Fan Sizhe glared at Fan Xian and said, "We opened this bookstore together, why can't I come?"
Fan Xian raised his eyebrows and looked him up and down, which made him feel a little uneasy.
"You...what do you want to do?"
"Nothing." Fan Xian said with a half-smile, "It's just that school shouldn't be over yet at this time. You are the legitimate son of Si Nanbo, but you don't study hard in the private school and sneak into the bookstore. What's going on?"
Fan Sizhe looked embarrassed. He stammered for a long time before whispering, "Brother, don't tell my family that I sneaked here. You know I like doing business. This bookstore is my first business. Dad finally got a colleague, so I must come and see it!"
Fan Xian said unhappily, "Just look, don't show up. You are the legitimate son and will inherit the title of Si Nanbo in the future. Don't get involved in the name of a merchant."
Fan Sizhe sighed and said, "My mother said the same thing. I really envy you for being able to sit in the bookstore every day."
Fan Xian laughed and said, "You like doing business so much..."
The two brothers walked and talked, but Yamu did not keep up. Instead, after the two walked out of the yard, he jumped onto the roof.
"How did you get here?"
Ya Mu stood on the roof, looking at Wu Zhu who was squatting in front of him.
Wu Zhu looked up at him, was silent for a moment, and said: "Have you met Chen Pingping?"
Ya Mu nodded and said: "Yes...you have met him too?"
Wu Zhu was silent for a moment again, and said: "Chen Pingping said that Wu Bo'an has left Kyoto now. He was taken away by the people of Lin Gong, the second son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and is currently hiding in a manor about 18 miles outside the capital."
Ya Mu recalled the plot and frowned: "Do you want to kill him?"
Wu Zhu whispered: "Whoever wants to kill Fan Xian, I will kill him."
Seeing Wu Zhu's calm and firm words, Ya Mu thought for a while and said: "I'll go with you!"
Wu Zhu shook his head: "You have already appeared next to Fan Xian. If you take action, Fan Xian will be involved."
Ya Mu smiled slightly: "Don't worry, no one can tell!"
Soon after, the two figures disappeared on the roof of the bookstore.
On the other side, Fan Xian took his brother to visit the bookstore, and when he was satisfied, he arranged for someone to send him away.
When he returned to the backyard of the bookstore, Yamu's figure had disappeared. Fan Xian frowned and called a few times. Seeing no movement, he frowned strangely.
Before he could think about it, a figure climbed over the eaves and landed in front of Fan Xian lightly.
"Little Master Fan!"
Wang Qinian smiled and bowed to Fan Xian.
Fan Xian hurriedly said: "Don't do this fake, tell me your investigation results!"
"Yes, Master!"
Wang Qinian bowed again and whispered: "I have checked, Mr. Wu has left the capital, and the people who picked him up are all strangers. I haven't investigated their identities, but according to the description of the city guards, they should all be masters!"
