The man nodded and said, "Yes... You were driving south earlier, so I figured you must have co from the north. The main road up north leads to Liangcheng County, and I thought I'd try my luck asking you about how Liang Xiaobin was doing."
Hmm... the next one is the last question.
"Why did you stop us here?"
Lu Xi'an asked.
The man said, "The road to the north is blocked, so you'd have to co back. Earlier, when I saw you leaving so quickly, I knew you didn't want any conflict with .
"Otherwise, how would I dare to co looking for you? I figured if you returned, you wouldn't take the sa route, so I ca here to try my luck.
"Thank you for telling all this. I have so food stashed in the coffin; if you want it, you can take it yourself."
Lu Xi'an squinted his eyes, "Why don't you eat it yourself?"
The man shook his head wistfully, "I don't feel like eating anymore. After sleeping for so long, it seems my stomach has fallen asleep too; I'm rarely hungry. I ate a bit when I ca out and have a little with . With my current appetite, it should be enough.
"I don't want to go back. Going back makes want to lie down and continue sleeping. I want to go to Liangcheng County to see where Liang Xiaobin died; can you tell ?
"I want to find him and have a chat. Last ti I visited him, he went mad and tried to eat , so we couldn't communicate at all. Now that he's dead, maybe we can finally talk?"
He didn't ask how Liang Xiaobin died, or if it had anything to do with Lu Xi'an or Yao Wei. This update is available on novel⚑fire
Maybe it was related, but what's the point of that?
In this world, for soone like Liang Xiaobin, perhaps death was a form of relief...
"He's above the Liang River, you have to search for him. And do it quickly; if you're too late, he might be eaten by fish in the river, or who knows where he'll drift to,"
Lu Xi'an said.
When he was by the Liang River, the Fish Rider was killed by him, and after a while, the body floated up. It didn't follow the current downstream at the ti. But who knows now?
The man nodded and said, "I see, then I'll hurry over. Thank you, you should go."
As he spoke, he retreated to the side of the road, still raising both arms, with an arrow still lodged in his shoulder.
Lu Xi'an asked, "Is your arrow okay?"
The man shook his head, "Just leave it in. Who knows if it will bleed if I pull it out? If I bleed too much, I'm afraid I'll fall asleep again, or even die."
Lu Xi'an said nothing more.
Yao Wei climbed onto the car roof, still holding her bow and arrow aid at the man, who stood obediently by the roadside with his hands raised.
Lu Xi'an shifted gears and pressed on the gas, driving forward, passing the man quickly. The man remained motionless, putting Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei at ease.
After they drove a considerable distance, the man finally turned to the north and slowly followed. But since he was on foot, he was much slower than Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei, quickly disappearing from their view.
Only then did Lu Xi'an breathe a sigh of relief and say, "I didn't expect to et soone who knew that Fish Rider."
"Mm,"
Yao Wei responded from the car roof.
Lu Xi'an continued, "I thought there might be a big fight, but we just exchanged a few words and learned so things from the past, which is quite nice."
"Mm,"
Yao Wei replied with another "Mm."
Then Lu Xi'an asked, "Should we go check out that coffin? Do you think what that man said is true?"
"Let's take a look,"
Yao Wei finally gave a definite opinion, "If it's true, we can get so food. Let Gou check it out first to avoid danger."
"Alright,"
This ti it was Lu Xi'an's turn to give a terse answer. He made a turn, steering the car back onto the main road of Gu County's city, exited the city, and then turned onto the East Outer Ring.
