When the middle-aged man saw Luo Chen, he quickly stepped forward and shook his hand, saying excitedly: "Brother Luo Chen, you are finally back! We have been looking for you, but we didn't expect that you would be arrested by the government."

Luo Chen looked at the familiar face of the middle-aged man, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.

He asked, "You are...?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "I am Ruyu's brother and one of the friends you met in the restaurant before. After we learned that you were framed, we have been trying to find a way to rescue you."

Hearing this, Luo Chen burst into tears of gratitude.

He didn't expect that he would have so many friends in Donglin City who were willing to stand up for him.

The middle-aged man patted Luo Chen on the shoulder and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of your health, and then we will work together to find the mastermind who framed you."

Luo Chen nodded, his heart filled with determination and gratitude.

He knew that this was not only to clear his own grievances, but also for the friends who had worked hard for him.

In the following days, Luo Chen moved into this secluded house under the arrangement of his brother Ruyu, and began his recuperation and planning.

He knew that it was not easy to uncover the truth on his own, but he was not fighting alone.

Brother Ruyu used his connections in Donglin City to secretly investigate the truth behind the murder.

As time went by, Luo Chen gradually recovered from his injuries, and his mood became heavier.

Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, he would sit in front of the window, gazing at the starry sky outside, silently pondering the reasons for all this.

He asked himself, who had he offended to deserve such a misfortune?
Finally, after a period of hard work, Brother Ruyu brought surprising news.

It turns out that the mastermind behind all this is the second son of the Donglin City Lord’s Mansion, Lin Yi!
Lin Yi was jealous of Luo Chen's talent and Miss Ruyu's favor, so he secretly framed Luo Chen and attempted to kill him.

After learning the truth, Luo Chen was furious.

He had never expected that he would end up in such a situation because of the jealousy of such a petty person.

But he also understood that anger could not solve the problem. He had to calm down and make a careful plan to expose Lin Yi's crimes and clear his name.

So, with the help of Brother Ruyu, Luo Chen began to collect evidence secretly.

They used various means and finally found direct evidence that Lin Yi framed Luo Chen, a secret letter.

This secret letter recorded in detail the entire process of how Lin Yi instructed his men to commit murder and forge evidence to frame Luo Chen.

After receiving the secret letter, Luo Chen and Brother Ruyu discussed and decided to make the secret letter public so that everyone in the city would know Lin Yi's true identity.

However, they also know that doing so would be extremely risky.

After all, Lin Yi is the second son of the City Lord's Mansion and has powerful support behind him.

But Luo Chen couldn't care less about that anymore.

He knew very well that if he did not stand up and expose the truth, more people would be persecuted by Lin Yi.

So he resolutely chose this path.

On a sunny morning, Luo Chen and Brother Ruyu came to the square of Donglin City with the secret letter.

They shouted loudly, attracting the attention of everyone around them.

Then, they read out the contents of the secret letter in public, exposing Lin Yi's crimes.

For a moment, the whole square was in an uproar.

People were talking about it, expressing indignation and condemnation of Lin Yi's evil deeds.

The City Lord's Mansion also felt unprecedented pressure, and they had to send officials to investigate the matter.

After some investigation and evidence collection, the City Lord's Mansion finally confirmed Lin Yi's guilt.

They decided to bring Lin Yi to justice as a warning to others.

Luo Chen was thus cleared of all charges and regained his freedom.

The moment Luo Chen walked out of the cell, he took a deep breath of the air of freedom.

He knew that all the suffering was worth it.

Because he not only cleared himself of the charges, but also sought justice for those innocent victims.

From then on, Luo Chen became famous in Donglin City.

He proved his innocence and courage with his actions.

He also strengthened his belief that no matter how great the difficulties and challenges were, he must stand up bravely to face them and overcome them.

Lin Yi paid the price for his evil deeds.

He was stripped of all his power and status and exiled to a remote place.

His fate has also become a topic of conversation and a warning for people after dinner.

Donglin City.

In a restaurant.

The aroma of wine filled the air, the seats were full of guests, and the sounds of laughter and joy intertwined into a picture of a bustling city.

Luo Chen and Ruyu, brother and sister, and a group of friends who had forged a deep friendship due to their shared experiences, sat around a large table and raised their glasses to celebrate the hard-earned victory and freedom.

There was an unprecedented light flashing in Luo Chen's eyes, which was the expectation for a new life and the relief for past hardships.

He raised his glass, his voice firm and warm: "This glass is for all of us. Without you, there would be no Luochen today."

The Ruyu brother and sister smiled at each other, their eyes full of relief and pride.

Ruyu whispered softly: "Luo Chen, you are not only our friend, but also the hero in our hearts. You make us believe that justice will eventually triumph over evil."

The atmosphere at the table became more heated because of these words, and everyone echoed and raised their glasses to celebrate.

After three rounds of drinks, the topic naturally turned to the outlook for the future.

"Luo Chen, what do you plan to do in the future?"

Ruyu asked in a low voice.

Luo Chen thought about it, and then replied: "I'm not sure what I'm going to do, but what I do know is that I plan to continue to gain experience in the secular world."

As soon as Luo Chen finished speaking, voices of approval rang out from all around.

His friends know very well that Luo Chen is not an ordinary person and his future must be full of infinite possibilities.

"Brother Luo Chen, no matter what you do, we support you!"

Ruyu's brother patted his chest and said with great pride.

Luo Chen looked at him gratefully, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.

He knew that these friends were not only his partners, but also his solid support in life.

"Yes, Luo Chen, we all admire your talent and courage. No matter which path you choose, you will go far." Other friends also echoed.

Luo Chen smiled and nodded, already having his own plans in mind.

He knew very well that after this turmoil, he needed to choose his own path more carefully.

He not only has to live for himself, but also for those who support him and believe in him.

In the blink of an eye, it was three days later.

After Luo Chen said goodbye to his friends in Donglin City.

He left Donglin City silently.

At this time, outside the city gate.

Luo Chen subconsciously turned his head, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at the huge city silently.

For a moment, he couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

"I don't know if I will return to this city after leaving this time."

Luo Chen pondered secretly in his heart, but then shook his head and put these distracting thoughts behind him.

He knows very well that life is like a journey and I am just a traveler. The road ahead is still long and he cannot always be immersed in memories of the past.

So he took a deep breath, took firm steps, and embarked on a new journey.

He did not choose the busy official road, but walked along a path less traveled by people.

This trail, though rugged and difficult, allowed him to better appreciate the natural scenery and give him more time to think about the future. He believed that only after experiencing wind and rain could he see the rainbow.

Only by going through the ruggedness can you reach the flatness.

Along the way, he met many people, most of whom just had a quick contact with him and then left.

What concerned him most was a fat businessman who always had a smile on his face all day long.

A businessman named Liang Qi.

It seemed to be the young master of the Liang family in a city far away.

This time, in order to earn enough profit for his family, he did not hesitate to travel thousands of miles to sell the goods he brought.

Anyway, Luo Chen has nothing to do.

I don’t know where I should go to gain experience.

So he followed Liang Qi and moved forward.

"Hey, Brother Luo."

Liang Qi wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Luo Chen beside him with a smile. His round face was filled with an indescribable affinity. "You said that although our journey was a bit hard, the scenery along the way is quite unique."

Luo Chen smiled slightly, looked deeply at the mountains in the distance, and said softly: "Yes, everything in the world has its beauty, we just need to discover and appreciate it with our heart. For me, this journey is not only a physical migration, but also a spiritual baptism."

Liang Qi heard this, a trace of admiration flashed in his eyes. He stopped and looked at Luo Chen seriously: "Brother Luo, you are so young, but you can have such insights. It is really admirable. Although I have been in the business world for many years, I always feel that I live in a muddle-headed way, and all I pursue is fame and fortune."

Luo Chen turned to look at Liang Qi and smiled gently, "Brother Liang, you are too serious. Everyone has his or her own way of living. Different pursuits lead to different gains. It is not easy for you to make a name for yourself in the business world. I just happened to gain some insights during this journey."

The two smiled at each other and continued on their way.

As time went by, their friendship gradually deepened, from strangers at first to friends who could talk about their hearts.

One day, they came to a steep valley and saw clouds and mist lingering in the valley, like a fairyland on earth.

Liang Qi pointed to the front excitedly and said to Luo Chen: "Brother Luo, look at that valley. It is said that there are rare treasures and various opportunities hidden in it. Many people have tried to go in to look for opportunities and treasures, but most of them have returned empty-handed. How about we give it a try too?"

Luo Chen frowned slightly when he heard this.

He knew very well that the road to finding opportunities was extremely dangerous and that he could lose his life if he was not careful.

But seeing the expectation flashing in Liang Qi's eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse.

So, he pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Liang, the road to finding opportunities is not trivial. We must be fully prepared, and we cannot act blindly. We must first understand the situation in the valley."

Upon hearing this, Liang Qi quickly nodded in agreement.

So, the two of them camped outside the valley and began to ask around about the situation inside the valley.

After some effort, they finally learned some secrets of the valley from an old hunter.

It turned out that there were indeed opportunities and treasures hidden in the valley, but there were also many ferocious and terrifying monsters.

After hearing this, Luo Chen became more cautious.

He knew very well that he had to be careful on this trip, otherwise he might not come back.

So he began to work with Liang Qi to develop a detailed plan and prepare sufficient supplies and weapons to ensure that nothing would go wrong.

Finally, on a sunny morning, they stepped into the mysterious valley with full of anticipation and nervousness.

The valley was indeed as dangerous as rumored, with the roars of mysterious monsters rising one after another.

But Luo Chen and Liang Qi did not retreat. They held their weapons tightly, their eyes determined, and moved forward step by step.

The sunlight shines through the dense leaves, dappled onto the ground, adding a bit of brightness and hope to the dark valley.

The first thing they encountered was a group of low-level monsters. Although there were many of them, they were quickly defeated one by one with the tacit cooperation between Luo Chen and Liang Qi.

Luo Chen's swordsmanship was sharp and precise, and every sword hit the monster's vital points just right.

Liang Qi, with his round body and agile skills, moved freely among the group of monsters, throwing special medicinal powder from time to time to throw the monsters into chaos.

As they went deeper, the monsters they encountered became more and more powerful.

Once, they accidentally startled a huge earth dragon beast.

This earth dragon beast has thick skin and flesh and is extremely powerful. It can bite a huge rock into pieces with one bite.

Faced with such a powerful enemy, Luo Chen and Liang Qi both felt unprecedented pressure.

But they did not give up. Instead, they quickly adjusted their tactics and used the terrain to maneuver.

Luo Chen was responsible for attracting the attention of the Earth Dragon Beast. He was agile, sometimes jumping onto the treetops, sometimes diving into the bushes, making it impossible for the Earth Dragon Beast to track him. Liang Qi took the opportunity to set traps. He used the ropes and spikes he carried with him to set up obstacles on the path that the Earth Dragon Beast had to pass.

Finally, during a sudden attack by the Earth Dragon Beast, it accidentally triggered the trap and was tightly entangled by the rope, with the spikes deeply piercing its flesh. Seeing this, Luo Chen immediately seized the opportunity and stabbed the Earth Dragon Beast's eyes with a sword, ending this thrilling battle.

After this life-and-death test, the friendship between Luo Chen and Liang Qi became even deeper.

They supported each other, faced difficulties together, and became true friends for life and death.

In the following days, they continued to go deeper into the valley, searching for the legendary opportunities and treasures.

They passed through dark forests, crossed turbulent rivers, and climbed steep mountains.

Every challenge brings them closer to their goal and strengthens their faith. (End of this chapter)
