I, the wanderer of the universe, love making friends

Chapter 90 I said I was not, but they insisted that I was

The sound of hurried horse hooves came from far away, like a sudden storm sweeping in.

In the blink of an eye, a tall and strong horse galloped before everyone at lightning speed.

The knight on horseback was agile. He pulled the reins suddenly, and the horse neighed loudly, raised its front hooves high, and then stopped steadily beside the few people.

The knight swiftly dismounted, knelt on one knee, saluted Shen Lang, and said respectfully:
"Your humble servant greets the young prince! The prince has a letter for you. He originally ordered me to ride out of the city as fast as possible to catch up with you. I never expected to meet you here. God is truly helping me."

After saying that, he presented a sealed letter with both hands.

Shen Lang reached out to take the letter, gently opened the envelope, took out the letter and read it carefully.

After Shen Lang finished reading the entire letter, he nodded slightly and said to the knight, "Go back and tell Brother Wang that I'm aware of this matter and will handle it properly. Please rest assured."

"As you command!" After receiving the order, the knight mounted his horse again, turned his horse's head and rode away quickly.

Li Qiushui, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but ask, "What's in the letter?"

Shen Lang smiled slightly and handed the letter to her.

Then he turned to look at Li Canghai and continued, "Our Prince Duan doesn't need to return to the palace for the time being. Duan Zhengming asked him to visit some martial arts sects in the Song Dynasty."

Li Canghai nodded lightly, a smile on his face, and replied: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away. Duan Zhengchun can't do anything if he goes back now anyway, and it will only lead to nonsense."

This is not wrong. Duan Zhengchun is indeed talking nonsense now.

In the inn, Gan Baobao and Qin Hongmian, who were about to go out, heard the name "Little Prince".

The two couldn't help but look at each other.

Qin Hongmian whispered, "What little prince?"

"I don't know." Gan Baobao shook his head, "We don't know much about the court's affairs."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the diners around him whispering, "Is this young man the little prince? What little prince?"

"Of course it's the young prince of the Duan family," someone replied. "It's said that he was caught in a fire half a year ago, and his face was burned beyond recognition. His brother sought help from countless people, but to no avail. Fortunately, a master came to his aid."

"Neither human nor ghost? But why does this face look uninjured to me?"

"Didn't I just tell you that we have the help of a master? It is said that this master is called Li Guishou. Anyway, his medical skills are so superb that he was able to replace the little prince's entire face!"

"Hiss! There is actually such a master in the martial arts world?"

"Of course not. I wouldn't have believed it if you asked me, but my cousin's brother-in-law works for them, and this was said by the palace guard himself."

"This is amazing! This face is so natural, there's absolutely no flaw at all."

"..."

Qin Hongmian and Gan Baobao sat quietly in the corner, hearing the whispers of people around them. Their eyes met, and they saw deep doubt in each other's eyes.

"Senior Sister, what is going on? He clearly claimed to be Shen Lang, so how come he has become the young prince of the Duan family?" Gan Baobao asked Qin Hongmian in a very low voice.

At the same time, he glanced around vigilantly, fearing that others would hear him.

Qin Hongmian gritted her teeth and said bitterly, "Humph, I've known for a long time that this guy is not a good person. He's full of sweet talk and must have fabricated a fake identity to deceive us sisters! Look at those women around him, they are obviously not decent people!"

Having said that, she could no longer suppress the anger in her heart. She stood up suddenly and was about to rush out to settle the score with Shen Lang.

However, Gan Baobao was quick-witted and grabbed her.

"Senior Sister, don't be impulsive!" Gan Baobao hurriedly advised.

"Let me go!" Qin Hongmian struggled to free herself from Gan Baobao's hand, her brows furrowed as she demanded angrily, "Are you still going to protect that bastard?"

Gan Baobao quickly explained, "Senior Sister, you misunderstood me. I just think it's not appropriate to rush over so rashly. Let's observe the situation first."

After hearing what Gan Baobao said, Qin Hongmian calmed down a little. After thinking about it carefully, she felt that what she said made sense.

She glared at Shen Lang in the distance, then sat down again unwillingly, but continued to curse under her breath.

outside.

After Li Canghai left, Li Qiushui followed him and said, "Luo'er and I will go and arrange for the return trip to Suzhou. If you have any unresolved matters, please do so immediately. However, the road to Suzhou is not safe, so it's best if unrelated people don't follow us."

The meaning behind these words is self-evident.

Shen Lang nodded and said, "Don't worry, no one will follow you."

Although the Xixia Emperor was in poor health, he was still alive, so there was really no need for him to go to such a remote and desolate place to suffer.

So, after some discussion, everyone decided to go to Suzhou first, carefully renovate the old house of the Li family, and live there for a while before making any further plans.

After Li Qiushui and Li Qingluo left to make arrangements, Shen Lang glanced casually at the first floor of the inn out of boredom. Unexpectedly, he saw Qin Hongmian and Gan Baobao walking out slowly side by side.

But at this moment, the faces of these two people were filled with anger.

Qin Hongmian was about to open her mouth to reprimand her when Gan Baobao quickly lowered her voice and advised, "Senior Sister, please don't be so angry. It's better to ask her about the whole story first." After that, she turned to face Shen Lang and said seriously, "We have some questions for you. Please come with us!"

They did not lead Shen Lang to the guest rooms on the second floor, but instead walked straight to the door of the inn.

After walking a short distance, Shen Lang couldn't contain his curiosity and asked, "I wonder what you two want to ask? I will tell you everything I know without reservation."

Hearing this, Qin Hongmian stared at Shen Lang intently and asked directly, "Are you the young prince from the Duan family of Dali?"

Shen Lang sighed, "I came to Dali just to travel the world. Traveling the world requires a nickname, right? I was just thinking of a good name when they suddenly said I was Little Prince Duan. I said no, and they said yes. I said my last name wasn't Duan either, and they said yes. I had no choice but to be called that."

"Really?" Gan Baobao obviously didn't believe it.

Shen Lang asked, "Could I really lie to you about something like this?"

"Who were those women around you just now?" Qin Hongmian asked again, "Don't tell us they have nothing to do with you."

"As a young prince, is it strange that he has several subordinates and women around him?" Shen Lang asked, "Don't you see many people with many women around them when you travel around the world?"

"But." Qin Hongmian hesitated to speak.

"Don't say but." Shen Lang sighed softly and said slowly, "Look, I've even told you the huge secret that I'm not a member of the Duan family without reservation. Isn't this enough to prove my sincerity and honesty towards you?"

After saying this, he looked at the pair of sisters in front of him sincerely.

Qin Hongmian and Gan Baobao couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this, and saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.

Shen Lang then continued, "Hongmian, baby, precisely because I'm not Prince Duan, if you happen to meet someone who looks or has a similar temperament to me in the future, you must not recognize them rashly. You must exchange secret codes first."

"What's the code?" Qin Hongmian and Gan Baobao blurted out almost at the same time, both of them with curiosity on their faces.

Shen Lang smiled slightly and said softly, "Hongmian, our code is 'To die under Shura's sword, to be a romantic ghost'."

After he finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Gan Baobao, "Baby, our secret code is naturally 'Baby, kiss Baby'."

As soon as the words fell, Gan Baobao's pretty face instantly turned red with shame, and she said coquettishly: "Oh, who wants to listen to you say such disgusting words?"

Qin Hongmian on the side couldn't help but give her a blank look, then turned to look at Shen Lang.

He said solemnly, "Okay, as you said, 'If you die under the Shura sword, you will be a romantic ghost.' If one day you dare to betray my true love, then I will make you die under my Shura sword!"

……

Shen Lang stayed in Dali for a few more days.

However, because Gan Baobao and Qin Hongmian received letters from their master, the two had to go back to the master to do some work. In addition, Li Qiushui also arranged to return to the Song Dynasty, so everyone separated temporarily.

After seeing them off, Shen Lang, Li Qiushui and others also set off, returning to Suzhou with the secret book that Wuyazi had stolen.

First, renovate the Li family's old house, recruit servants, and then hide all the secret books in a secret room.

Li Qiushui suggested, "Since Senior Brother Wuyazi named the place where he hid his books Langhuan Blessed Land, and now that these secret books are here, let's name it Langhuan Jade Cave to commemorate him."

"That's a good idea." Shen Lang nodded. "Let's do as you say."

Several people just came out of the secret room.

The maid Ah Ping hurried over to report: "Master, ladies, a young man claiming to be from the Murong family is visiting with his wife, and he has brought many gifts."

"The Murong family? It must be that kid Murong Bo." Li Qiushui said, "Since he has taken care of the Li family mansion for so many years, let him in."

"Yes, I'll arrange it right away." A Ping said.

Shen Lang and his group came to the hall and sat down to drink tea. Not long after, A Ping brought in Murong Bo and a young woman, followed by a dozen people, all carrying boxes.

The young woman was about eighteen or nineteen years old, wearing a light green dress, and looked quite pretty.

Murong Bo bowed deeply and respectfully with a smile on his face.

He said sincerely, "My nephew Murong Bo and my wife have come to pay a visit to my two aunts and uncles. I heard that my two aunts have returned home in glory, so I have prepared a small gift as a token of my gratitude. It is really not a token of respect, but I sincerely hope that my two aunts will accept it."

As he spoke, he signaled the followers behind him to present the gift box.

"Thank you very much, nephew." Li Qiu Shui nodded slightly to express his gratitude, then extended his hand and gestured for them to sit down.

Murong Bo bowed again, his attitude becoming more humble. He said, "Aunt Li, I came here not only to visit you two, but also to ask for an important favor. I hope you can grant my request."

Li Qiushui asked with interest, "Oh? What's that?"

Murong Bo said, "My wife's family, the Wang family, is quite well-established in Suzhou. Old Master Wang was once a great scholar. Currently, the Wang family has an unmarried son who is also handsome and well-behaved. Therefore, my nephew has the courage to ask for a marriage on behalf of this young master of the Wang family from my aunt and uncle."

Having said that, he glanced at Li Qingluo beside him.

She added, "Miss Qingluo is as beautiful as an orchid in a valley, her talent is as rich as that of an immortal, and her beauty is breathtaking. She is rare in the world. If she and the young master of the Wang family were to marry, it would be a match made in heaven. I hope your aunt will grant your blessing."

Hearing this, Shen Lang's face turned cold and his brows furrowed, "Murong Bo, do you know what you are saying?"
