Chapter 129 Don't believe or spread rumors
"As the saying goes, troubled times produce heroes. Only when the entire martial arts world is in chaos will he have a chance to become famous. As for the position of sect leader, Shan Gu Dao has never thought about it. What he wants is to be the supreme master of the martial arts world and become the person above everyone else."
"You just said he risked his life to complete his scheme? Please, even a fool wouldn't do that. Unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless that's not his fate."
"What do you mean?"
"Excuse me, everyone, that concludes today's story. After hearing so much, I'm sure none of you are foolish or unable to distinguish right from wrong. You can judge the truth for yourselves. I hope that when you don't know the truth, you will refrain from believing or spreading rumors."
"It's getting late, so I won't keep you all for a late-night meal. Please take care on your journey."
"Why are you kicking them out? What did you mean by that last thing? Did you understand?"
"It sounds like Shan Gu Dao didn't die."
"How could that be? That was something the brothers from the Four Gates saw with their own eyes."
"But who among us here has seen it, and no one has seen the body of that lone swordsman either."
"I heard that the Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance took away Shan Gu Dao's body to threaten Sect Master Li."
Another person came over.
"What use is it for the Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance to take it away? Sect Leader Li has been gone for so many years. Has anyone heard of the whereabouts of Shan Gu Dao's body? Those who do know are probably already reincarnated."
Li Lianhua, who is only four years old, is ill, and the flute plays a tune. Wu You says: We are not dead yet, so there is no rush to reincarnate.
Brother, you mean...?
"It's unspeakable. Don't believe or spread rumors. Let's go."
"Let's go."
After everyone left, only five people remained. Wu You walked over to Qiao Wanmian and thanked her.
"Sister A-Man, we're leaving now. Thank you for today."
"You're welcome, Youyou. But were those things you just said true?"
"Sister A-Mian, didn't I say that I don't believe or spread rumors?"
Wu You winked at Qiao Wanmian.
"I understand, Youyou. Be careful on your way."
"Okay, Sister A-Mian. You two still have things to say, right? We won't disturb you any longer. Talk things out calmly, and try not to get too emotional."
"I know, Youyou, I'm very calm right now."
"Goodbye then, Fang Duobing, Nanfeng, I'm leaving."
"Master Xiao, Lady Qiao, farewell."
Seeing Wu You call him to leave, Fang Duobing clasped his hands in greeting to the two men and followed them.
Nanfeng didn't speak, but gently clasped his hands in a fist and followed the two men.
Wu You, often ill, the south wind comes quietly and goes gently, waving its sleeves, leaving not a single cloud behind.
After the tea party, only Qiao Wanmian and Xiao Zijin remained.
Inside a private room of a teahouse in the small town,
"Wu You, you've ordered so much. Can the three of us finish all of this?"
"It's not much, but it looks good to me. I'll pack the rest back to the inn for Li Lianhua and the others. This is enough for us. Nanfeng, go pack some more food to take back to Lianhua Tower later. It's okay to bring more."
Wu You pointed to the four or five plates of pastries on the table.
"Yes," Nanfeng replied, placing the packaged snacks on the table beside her.
"There's so much, we probably couldn't finish it even in two meals."
Wu You: What are you afraid of? There's a refrigerator here, it won't be a problem if you leave it for a day or two.
"Let's not talk about that, Wu You. What you said at the tea party—that my father, Shan Gudao, is not dead—is that true?"
"?uh-huh?"
"Impossible! I buried him myself, how could he be dead? You're lying, aren't you?"
"Don't believe or spread rumors."
Nanfeng chimed in from the side.
