Sun and Moon Are Wrong: Traveling Through Time from Under One Person

Chapter 293 A way out

After the incident was over, the waterway became surprisingly calm and there were no more waves.

Meng Ning drove the air boat and finally brought Zhang Yingcai safely to the gate of Yangzhou city.

Lu Dahai had been waiting here for a long time with a group of people. When he saw his grandson-in-law Zhang Yingcai arrived safely, his joy was beyond words.

He was not a fool. The previous turbulence on the lake and the sudden dark clouds covering Yangzhou City had already made the head of the Lu family notice some changes.

He knew in his heart that the journey of his grandson-in-law here was definitely not smooth.

The reason why he was able to arrive safely was thanks to the great power of Young Master Meng, who was practicing the Three True Methods that he had set his eyes on.

When Lu Dahai looked at Meng Ning's face, all his wrinkles turned into a flower with a smile.

"Thank you for your trouble, Brother Meng. If you need help from our Lu family in the future, please let us know. With just one word from you, our Lu family will go through fire and water to help you!"

Meng Ning waved his hand: "Grandpa Lu, why be polite? Since the matter has been settled, I have brought the person back to you intact.

Now that the investigation of that evil corpse is urgent, I will go ahead."

After saying that, Meng Ning stepped on the air boat again, went upstream, and headed towards the outside of Yangzhou city.

Seeing Meng Ning leave, Lu Dahai followed Meng Qi's back closely and couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Meng is still as charming as ever, he is truly a god!"

Zhang Yingcai heard this and nodded in agreement: "Yes, if it weren't for this young master's help, I would have been a water ghost in the lake."

After the two of them sighed for a long time, Lu Dahai realized that this Zhang Yingcai was indeed an extraordinary person with a righteous spirit to protect him.

He would warmly invite Zhang Yingcai to the Lu family to welcome him and treat him well to show his hospitality as a host.

However, Zhang Yingcai shook his head firmly and disagreed.

"Master Lu, thank you for your kindness. But the first thing I will do when I return to Yangzhou is to go back to my ancestral home to observe seven days of mourning for my parents who unfortunately passed away when I was a child."

When Lu Dahai heard this, he couldn't help but feel emotional. He recalled his old friend and understood Zhang Yingcai's filial piety.

So he patted Zhang Yingcai on the shoulder and said, "My child, you are a good and filial child. Go. If you need anything, come to me at any time.

Um... and the child, what do you think about the marriage with my little bear?"

Zhang Yingcai bowed deeply to Lu Dahai and said, "Regarding the engagement with your daughter, I will come to your house in seven days to give you a clear answer!"

After saying that, Zhang Yingcai turned and walked towards the ancestral home.

Returning to his ancestral home and pushing open the familiar yet unfamiliar door, everything that had happened here brought back his memories.

The ancestral house is very clean. I guess Mr. Lu often sends people to clean it regularly.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yingcai's gratitude towards the Lu family increased by another point.

After entering the main hall and lighting the incense and candles in front of his parents' tablets, Zhang Yingcai slowly knelt down.

"Dad, Mom, I'm back. I was unfilial and failed to show my filial piety to you when you were alive. Now I can only mourn for you here to express my guilt and longing for you."

"And Dad, Mom. I came back this time to do something big, and I am shamelessly using the connections and resources you left behind."

After kowtowed three times, Zhang Yingcai came into the courtyard and whistled.

Immediately afterwards, a white dove flew out from outside the yard and landed on his shoulder.

Zhang Yingcai swiftly took out the letter from the white dove, on which there was a few small words written.

Tonight at 9:00 p.m., see you at Qimeng Tower, south of Shili Waterside Pavilion!

...

In Lu Mansion, under the well, there is a mysterious peach garden.

At this moment, a black smoke came here through layers of land. The moment it stepped into Taoyuan, the black smoke changed into a beautiful woman.

As soon as the beautiful woman entered Taoyuan, her originally stern and cold expression instantly turned into a tender one.

After she paced around the peach garden for a long time, she used the gauze in her hand to wipe away every speck of dust in the garden.

Afterwards, he fell asleep peacefully under the peach tree, his face looking calm and serene, just like that of a child.

After waking up, the woman got up and left.

Before leaving, she looked at the peach tree and spoke after a long silence.

"That white-haired kid has ruined one of your three chances. It seems like you are really lucky in this life.

But you have to be more careful, you won’t get away with it easily in the remaining two times.”

Then the woman was silent again, and actually sighed.

"Alas~ A thousand years... It has been a thousand years... I have been protecting the loyal people of Yangcheng for a thousand years.

It seems that the Nine Realms Sect is going to take action against Yang Cheng."

“And it seems that they are very determined this time. It will be difficult for Yangcheng to survive this catastrophe.

But I will use all methods to solve the problem, all methods!"

After the woman finished speaking, she turned into smoke and gradually floated upwards and disappeared.

...

On the other side, Yun Xiaowei, a disciple of the Blue Bird Sect, felt a little sad when she was inspecting the area of ​​Yangzhou City assigned by the Lu family.

She saw too many poor children in the city who had to work since childhood.

“When the boys were about eight or nine years old, they started to do hard labor to earn money.

Girls are even worse off. Many young girls are in the brothels, putting on thick makeup and starting to serve those big men who are full of the smell of wine and meat. "

Seeing this, Xiaowei couldn't help but sigh. The Blue Bird Sect Leader saw what she was thinking and comforted her with a smile.

"Wei'er, are you sorry to see so many young children working so hard?"

Yun Xiaowei nodded. She always thought that this group of children should not appear in places like brothels where all kinds of people gather, at least not at this age.

"Master, don't these kids have any good way out?"

Hearing this, the head of the Blue Bird Sect couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Wei'er, I don't know how to answer you. But, ironically, what you think is a bad way out is already the best outcome for these children."

"You know, this is not a peaceful era. Chaos is happening all the time. These kids in the city may seem to be working, but at least they have a bowl of rice to eat and a place to sleep.

After all, Jiangnan is still considered a rich place. At least the weather is warm, there is no shortage of water, and the food is also abundant. "

"In the Northwest, there are too many children and too many people who don't even have bark to chew.

They dream of having a full meal, and this kind of life with work to do, food to eat, and a place to shelter from the wind and rain is heaven for them."

These words made Yun Xiaowei close her eyes tightly and feel painful.

"Master, the world is like this, is there really nothing we can do?"

The head of the Blue Bird Sect thought for a moment before speaking.

“It’s not like there is no solution.”

Hearing this, Yun Xiaowei suddenly became energetic.

"Master, what do you think? I will do it!"

Looking at this lovely disciple, the Blue Bird Sect Master spoke. "It's very simple, Xiaowei, this method is very simple.

That is, as long as you become stronger, that's all."
