Laughing, the host always wants to escape

Chapter 166: The Jianghu in the Wine and Sword Village (9)

"Also, spread the news that the leader of Jie Youlin has recently found a rare treasure and has gone out to look for it. It is rumored that whoever can get that treasure will be able to dominate the martial arts world." Jiang Sichen tapped the coffee table with his fingers. "Go ahead and make some noise."

"Yes, young master." As soon as the words fell, the few people who were originally standing on the first floor disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Jiang Sichen stood up, walked slowly down the stairs, raised his hand and casually tore off a token, playing with it in his palm.

In the side yard, Tang Cuo shook his sore arms, sat cross-legged on the ground, and complained, "It's too tiring. This is not something a human can do. I won't practice anymore."

"What do you mean you don't want to practice anymore?" Jiang Sichen asked in a teasing tone with a hint of seduction.

Hearing his voice, Tangcuo immediately collapsed and gripped the hilt of the sword, "No, I didn't say I won't practice anymore, I said this is not enough practice."

"Oh? Really? Then add a few hundred more strokes?"

"No, no." Tang Cuo shook his head like a rattle. "This is enough. You can't become fat in one bite. Don't be greedy. What does it taste like? It smells so good!"

Tang Cuo turned around and looked at Jiang Sichen in front of him, his eyes unconsciously attracted by what he was holding in his hand.

"I haven't eaten anything since this morning. I just went out and bought you some food." Jiang Sichen put the beggar's chicken on the table beside him. "Want to try it?"

"Try it." Tangcuo smiled and then sat down next to him. "How did you know I wanted to eat beggar's chicken?"

"Is there anything you don't want to eat in this situation?"

"Not really." Tang Cuo raised his hand and picked up the beggar's chicken in front of him, and began to eat it with relish. "Brother Jiang, to be honest, the relaxation you feel doesn't seem like someone who just witnessed a family massacre."

"What's that like?"

"More like a person who caused a tragedy, came back to inspect the results, and then felt that the problem was solved well..." When he said this, the chicken leg in Tang Cuo's hand fell involuntarily on the table. He swallowed and turned his head to look at Jiang Sichen.

"Do you think your guess is correct?" Jiang Sichen asked casually.

"Actually... I still tend to think that you are a good person." Tang Cuo picked up the fallen chicken leg, blew on it a few times, and continued eating.

"Actually, I'm a bad guy."

"But you said that bad people never say they are bad people." Tang Cuo's words were vague.

Hearing his words, Jiang Sichen chuckled and said, "That's true, but Young Master Tang, I still want to advise you not to trust others too much, otherwise you will be the one who suffers in the end."

"So, you killed those people?"

"That's not it."

"Oh."

"You're not worried at all. What if I'm a bad guy? What should I do?"

"Worry about it? Wait until I finish eating. There's no rush." ​​Tang Cuo curled his lips, as if he didn't care at all about what he said.

Jiang Sichen sat beside him, his eyes fixed on him with a bit of tenderness.

At sunset, Tangcuo leaned against a pillar beside him, rubbing his sore arm.

"Brother Jiang, did you practice martial arts like this back then?"

"I'm not. I'm more talented, so I don't need to start from the basics." Jiang Sichen replied.

Well, you know how to hurt my heart...

Suddenly, there was a sound of rapid running from the side door. Tang Cuo frowned and looked towards that side.

"Young Master Tang, Young Master Jiang, something bad has happened again."

"Something happened again? Who happened?" Tang Cuo stood up and walked towards An Zuo with Jiang Sichen.

"It was the Sunset Sect... that was wiped out..."

"The whole family was wiped out again?" Tangcuo's voice rose a few notches.

"You two should come with me to the main hall to take a look."

Several people walked towards the main hall together. As soon as they entered, they saw the woman who had quarreled with them in the morning, lying on the ground and wailing without caring about her image.

"What's going on?" Tang Cuo walked around her and looked at Mr. Xu on the main seat in confusion.

"It's you, it's all of you. Because we had an argument this morning, you were so angry that you destroyed my sect and killed my father..." Wu Zheng grabbed Tang Cuo's trouser leg and shouted.

"What and what?"

"Don't mind, young men. Miss Wu is just heartbroken. News came at dusk today that the Sunset Sect was wiped out. The leader of the Sunset Sect is Miss Wu's father." Old Xu raised his hand, and An Zuo on the side gestured to him to come forward and help Wu Zheng to the side.

"Was it also done by the gang in Jieyoulin?"

"We are investigating, but a bloody incident just happened, and not many people dare to approach the Sunset Sect. It may take a while for the news to reach us." Elder Xu picked up the white paper on the table, "I asked you to come here tonight because I want to discuss with you.

The current leader of the Wulin sect, Li Xiuzhu, has just sent a letter via carrier pigeon, telling us survivors to go to the Wulin sect to take shelter for a while. He is going to convene a Wulin meeting to discuss the matter of attacking Jie Youlin. He hopes we will set out tonight, otherwise something unexpected may happen."

"Do we have to go? Since it has nothing to do with us, why can't we each go back to where we came from?" the young man at the side asked.

"Since you have attended this wedding banquet, you have been implicated. If you still want to save your life, it is better to stay with us." Old Xu said.

"How do you know they won't take action tonight? What if they block us on the road, wouldn't it be even more difficult for us to escape?" Tang Cuo frowned.

"Since you want to pull us in, you shouldn't hide anything. Please tell me all the information you get." Jiang Sichen said calmly.

"This..." Old Xu hesitated for a moment, then sighed, "Well, actually we also received a letter saying that the leader of Jie Youlin has left the mountain to look for a treasure that can dominate the world. Now the people in the martial arts world have begun to panic."

"Treasure?" Isn't there a plot like this in this dimension? Why does it feel more and more confusing?

“Nobody knows what it is.”

"Then how do you determine that what he said is true?" Tang Cuo looked at him puzzled.

"Because that is Jie Youlin." Old Xu shook his head helplessly.

"Jie Youlin has always been known for knowing everything in the world, so what they say will be believed by others." Jiang Sichen took over the conversation.

"Xie Youlin once predicted that a sect that was once at its peak would decline within half a month. No one believed it. After all, it was a large sect with hundreds of experts. How could it decline within half a month?

But who would have thought that what they said was so true, and in just a dozen days, a huge sect completely disappeared. "When mentioning this, Old Xu's fingers trembled slightly.
