We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?

Master Changsheng nodded slightly and said, "It's very good that the donor has such determination. But things in this world are unpredictable. I hope the donor can always keep this clear mind."

Xiyu said solemnly: "Master, don't worry. After this experience, I already know the truth. I just don't know if there will be many twists and turns in my future." After saying that, a trace of worry appeared on his face.

Master Changsheng comforted: "Don't worry, donor, everything has a destiny. As long as you have good thoughts, you will be able to turn danger into safety."

Xiyu clasped his hands and said, "Since the doubts in my heart have been answered, I will take my leave. Thank you for your guidance."

Master Changsheng chanted a Buddhist name: "Amitabha, donor, go slowly."

Just like that, Xiyu turned and left. Not long after leaving the temple, many figures suddenly appeared in a quiet bush. They all held bows and arrows, aimed at Xiyu, and started shooting without hesitation.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!" The sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air rang out. At this critical moment, the dark guards beside Xi Yu appeared like ghosts. They flashed and immediately used their light skills to rush towards the archers.

The dark guards were agile and swift, tumbling and moving in the air, blocking the many arrows shot at them.

For a moment, many arrows lost their accuracy and scattered to other places.

The archers saw the dark guards who suddenly appeared like a god, and their eyes widened, their faces full of disbelief, and panic spread on their faces in an instant.

"No, run!" Several black-clothed men with poor psychological quality were frightened by this sudden change, turned around and ran away, their steps were flustered, and they didn't even care about the bows and arrows in their hands.

How could the dark guards let them escape easily? They were like lightning, their clothes fluttering, and they rushed towards the archers at lightning speed.

Some of the secret guards waved their swords, and the swords flashed, knocking down the arrows one by one; some of the secret guards rushed directly to the enemy, fighting with fists and feet, and engaging in close combat with the archers.

At this time, the battlefield was in chaos, with dust flying and the sound of swords colliding.

Xi Yu frowned, turned over and dismounted with a gloomy face, with his hands behind his back, and shouted loudly: "Leave them alive! I want to see who is behind this!"

Next, the secret guards fought hard with the archers while thinking of ways to keep them alive.

Their moves were restrained, trying to avoid the vital points and only subdue the opponent.

After a fierce fight, the archers gradually lost their resistance.

Several of the captured archers roared with resentment on their faces: "Humph, the impostor is our friend. Seeing him being paraded and humiliated, we naturally want to avenge him!"

Who would have thought that there was such a hidden force around Xi Yu!

Xi Yu looked at the trembling survivors, pondered for a moment, and unexpectedly said: "Forget it, let them all go."

The secret guards were all shocked, but still obeyed the order.

The archers couldn't believe their ears. After reacting, one of them was full of gratitude, kowtowed continuously, and shouted: "Thank you, Prime Minister, for not killing them. Thank you!"

Xi Yu was unmoved, just waved his hand and continued to move forward.

Xi Yu rode back to Youzhou at full speed. He was exhausted from the journey.

As soon as he entered the city, he suddenly felt a rumbling sound from his stomach, and hunger came instantly.

He didn't go back to the mansion first, but found a lively little restaurant on the street, lifted his robe and walked in, found a seat casually, called the waiter to serve the dishes, and prepared to feast on them.

Suddenly, when Xi Yu was about to feast on them, he heard the people at the next table start to discuss a topic enthusiastically.

"I heard something happened in Xianbei!" One person lowered his voice and looked nervous.

"What's going on?" Another person asked impatiently.

"Tuoba Tianlong is in a coma, and now a man named Hong Gang is in charge of government affairs."

When Xiyu heard this, the chopsticks in his hand paused slightly, and his brows wrinkled unconsciously.

Xiyu put down his chopsticks and listened to the conversation at the next table.

"This Hong Gang is not a good person. It is said that he is ruthless and ambitious." One person said worriedly.

"Is it possible for Tuoba Tianlong to wake up? If he remains in a coma, won't Xianbei change?" Another person was worried.

Xiyu thought to himself: The sudden change in the situation in Xianbei may affect the stability of the border, and this matter needs to be prepared early. Such a shocking event, I didn't even hear a trace of wind? This is really too strange!

His brows were tightly knitted, like two deep ravines, and his puzzled expression seemed to be able to squeeze out water.

"You know, Xianbei is very different from those purely foreign countries. After all, they have some connection with the Central Plains." Xiyu muttered to himself.

A man suddenly appeared at the table. He had a fair face, delicate features, and looked particularly delicate. He bent down slightly and asked politely: "Brother, can I sit opposite you?"

Xiyu looked up at him and nodded slightly.

The man sat down gracefully, bowed and introduced himself: "I am Hu Lin, may I ask what your name is?"

Xiyu looked calm and said: "My surname is Liu."

Hu Lin smiled slightly and then asked: "Brother Liu, do you know Youzhou College?"

Xiyu looked calm, nodded slightly, and said slowly: "Youzhou College, of course I know it."

Hu Lin's face instantly bloomed with an expectant smile, and he said eagerly: "To be honest, Brother Liu, I came here specially to find someone. Her name is Wenxuan, and she is from my hometown. I have been in love with her for a long time, and her figure is all over my heart. This time I came here to find out whether she has someone in her heart."

Xi Yu was stunned when he heard this, and countless thoughts suddenly surged in his mind: "This is a coincidence, how can I hear this confession here."

However, there was no ripple on his face, and he remained calm, pretending to know nothing, and responded lightly: "Oh?"

Hu Lin saw Xi Yu's cold reaction, and a trace of disappointment flashed across his face, but he quickly cheered up and continued: "Brother Liu, to be honest, Wenxuan and I have known each other since childhood, and her every frown and smile is engraved in my heart. This time I came to Youzhou College to find her, and I also made a great determination."

Xi Yu took a sip of tea lightly, his eyes fell on Hu Lin, and he still didn't speak.

Xiyu looked at Hu Lin's lost look, and couldn't bear it, so he had to say: "Then I hope you can get good luck and find your ideal person as soon as possible."

But in his heart, Xiyu knew very well that Hu Lin's trip would definitely be in vain.

Wenxuan is very proud, doesn't like ordinary people, and may even be single for life.

Hu Lin listened to Xiyu's words and sighed heavily, his face full of helplessness and sorrow: "Alas, Wenxuan's parents once wanted to control her marriage, but Wenxuan was stubborn and didn't listen at all. Her parents had no choice but to let her do it."

He shook his head, with a trace of fatigue in his eyes, "I went through a lot of trouble to find out her whereabouts, and finally found out that she was teaching at Youzhou College."

At this time, Xiyu thought to himself: Hu Lin is really infatuated, but it's a pity that Wenxuan is not easy to be moved.

But he still said with some comfort on his face: "In this case, you may still have a chance if you come here this time."

Hu Lin raised his head, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, but soon dimmed: "I hope so, but I don't know how she will react when she sees me."

After a while, the dishes ordered by Hu Lin were served.

He couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and gobbled them up like a whirlwind. His eating manner was simply not elegant at all.

Xi Yu sat opposite, silently watching Hu Lin's appearance, secretly despised him in his heart, but said nothing.

He just frowned slightly, thinking: This person is so uneducated.

But Hu Lin didn't realize his loss of composure at all. He raised his head and glanced at Xi Yu, showing a silly smile, and then lowered his head to continue to gobble up.

Seeing this, Xi Yu's face was more disgusted, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart: This idiot is really hopeless.

Xi Yu really couldn't stand Hu Lin's vulgar eating manner, so he simply turned his eyes away.

Hu Lin continued to eat and chew, making smacking sounds from time to time.

After a long while, Hu Lin was finally full. He burped contentedly, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and said, "Oh, it feels so good!"

Hu Lin stood up, patted his stomach, and said, "Brother Liu, I'm ready to leave now. I have to find Wenxuan."

Xiyu nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I wish you good luck."

Hu Lin turned and strode away. Xiyu looked at his back and thought to himself: Wenxuan would probably be disgusted by his appearance.

Then, Xiyu was also ready to leave, but he was still imagining Wenxuan's reaction after seeing Hu Lin.

Hu Lin finally arrived at the college. The plaque on the lintel was written with the four characters "Youzhou College" in a flamboyant manner.

The walls of the college were tall, and the courtyard was shaded by green trees. From time to time, the sound of reading aloud came, which made him feel a sense of emotion and awe.

At this moment, Lu Su, a burly man with a serious face, stood at the door.

Lu Su looked at Hu Lin carefully from top to bottom with a sharp gaze, frowned slightly, and asked with a bit of vigilance and majesty in his tone: "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Hu Lin quickly turned over and dismounted, looking a little nervous, but still respectfully clasped his fists and said: "Brother, I came from afar, running all the way, going through hardships, just to find Wenxuan. I hope you can help me and tell me her whereabouts."

Lu Su stared at Hu Lin again with a sharp gaze, questioning: "Who are you?"

Hu Lin quickly clasped his fists , with a flattering smile on his face, he said eagerly: "Brother, my name is Hu Lin, and I am Wenxuan's fellow villager. I miss her so much that I came all the way here."

Lu Su's expression did not change, and he still said seriously: "You wait outside, I need to go in and ask Wenxuan if she is willing to see you."

Hu Lin nodded repeatedly, and his attitude was very polite: "Thank you, thank you, brother."

Lu Su walked through the corridors and came to a study. He knocked on the door gently and pushed it open after getting a response.

I saw Wenxuan sitting at the desk, holding a scroll, with a focused expression.

Lu Su walked forward, bowed slightly and said: "Teacher Wenxuan, there is a Hu Lin outside the door who claims to be your fellow villager asking to see you."

When Wenxuan heard the name Hu Lin, his face instantly became particularly ugly, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes were full of disgust and anger. "I didn't expect him to chase here!"

She snorted coldly, her tone was cold.

Lu Su was shocked by Wenxuan's reaction and asked quickly, "Miss Wenxuan, what happened?"

Wenxuan put down the book in his hand, stood up, and walked back and forth with a very complicated expression on his face. "Mr. Lu Su, it's a long story, so you might as well stop asking."

Seeing Wenxuan's resolute attitude, Lu Su couldn't ask further questions, so he had to say: "Okay, Teacher Wenxuan, I will drive him away right away."

Wenxuan nodded and sat back at the desk, but his frown never relaxed.

Lu Su walked out of the academy and came to Hu Lin, who was still waiting anxiously.

He looked slightly embarrassed and said slowly: "Brother Hu Lin, Teacher Wenxuan doesn't want to see you, so she asked me to drive you away."

When Hu Lin heard this, his face was instantly filled with pain. His eyes widened and his voice trembled as he said, "Why? Why is Wenxuan so heartless towards me? I came thousands of miles away just to see her."

Hu Lin was so excited that he tightly grasped Lu Su's sleeves and begged: "Brother, please, let me go in and see her, even if it's just from a distance."

Lu Su shook his head helplessly and said: "Brother Hu Lin, outsiders are generally not allowed to enter this academy. Besides, Teacher Wenxuan is adamant and will definitely not see anyone. It will be useless even if you go in."

Hu Lin's body shook, as if he had suffered a huge blow. He let go of Lu Su's sleeves and muttered to himself in despair: "How could this happen? How could this happen?"

Lu Su looked at Hu Lin's devastated look and couldn't help but feel sympathy in his heart, but he could only helplessly advise: "Brother, you'd better go back first. Maybe when Teacher Wenxuan's anger subsides, there will be another chance in the future." ”

Hu Lin raised his head, his eyes were empty, tears welling up in his eyes: "Go back? Where else can I go back? My heart and mind are filled with her. Without her, my world has lost its color."

At this time, a breeze blew by, ruffling Hu Lin's hair and adding to his embarrassment.

Lu Su sighed softly: "Brother, don't be so stubborn. You can't force things in this world."

Hu Lin was silent for a long time, turned around slowly, dragged his heavy footsteps, and left the gate of Youzhou College step by step. That back view was filled with endless sadness and despair.

Lu Su looked at Hu Lin's lonely figure leaving, shook his head helplessly, turned around and returned to his office.

He sat on the chair, recalling Hu Lin's painful and desperate look and Wenxuan's determined attitude of not seeing him, and he couldn't help but sigh heavily: "Oh, it's really impossible to explain the love between a man and a woman. A man who loves so much So passionate, but one person is so heartless, it’s really unpredictable.”

He rubbed his temples with both hands, feeling filled with emotion: "Why is love in this world so complicated? It makes people happy and worried, obsessed and sad."

Wenxuan paced back and forth in the room, his chest heaving violently with anger and his pretty face turning red.

"This Hu Lin has been pestering me in my hometown, and now he comes here to harass me. It's totally unreasonable!" she cursed through gritted teeth.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and the anger in her heart could not be calmed down.

After a while, it was time for her class, but her heart was still filled with panic, as if there was a big stone pressing down on her.

"How can we teach students good lessons in such a mood?" Wenxuan took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions, but the anger and irritability still lingered in his heart.

Wenxuan frowned and tried hard to drive Hu Lin's figure out of his mind, but the annoying thoughts were like a spider web, getting tighter and tighter.

She reluctantly picked up the lesson plan and walked toward the classroom with heavy steps.

Along the way, she was distracted, and Hu Lin's disgusting face kept appearing in her mind.

Entering the classroom, the students shouted in unison: "Hello, teacher!" But Wenxuan just forced out a smile, and his voice was a little dry: "Hello, classmates, please sit down."

The class had already begun, but Wenxuan made frequent mistakes. He either taught the wrong knowledge points or forgot what he was going to say next.

Her eyes were wandering and her mind was not in class at all.

Finally, one student couldn't help raising his hand and asked: "Teacher, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Wenxuan suddenly woke up and realized his gaffe, and quickly said: "Teacher is fine, let's continue the class."

But only she knew that at this moment, her heart was still occupied by anger and boredom, and it was difficult to calm down.

Hu Lin walked alone on the bustling street like a wandering spirit. His eyes were dull, his face was pale, and he looked completely lost.

He was walking in a trance like this. After a while, he heard a "crash" sound. He accidentally bumped into a stall and knocked the rice on the stall to the ground. The white rice instantly scattered all over the floor.

The old man selling rice stared angrily and asked loudly: "What's going on with you?"

Hu Lin woke up from a dream and realized that he had accidentally bumped into someone else's stall. He immediately felt guilty and apologized hurriedly: "Old man, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

The old man selling rice looked at Hu Lin's guilty look, his face softened a little, and he sighed and said: "Young man, you have to be careful when walking! This rice is scattered all over the floor, and it will be difficult for me to do business."

Hu Lin hurriedly knelt down and hurriedly started to pick up the rice on the ground. He kept saying, "Old man, I'm so sorry. I'll help you pick it up. All the losses are mine."

Passers-by also gathered around, some pointing and others kindly helping to pick it up.

But the old man was unwilling to do so and insisted on telling Hu Lin that the rice had gone bad and could not be sold, so he asked Hu Lin to stay and work for him for a month. (End of this chapter)
