Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

951 Tou City

“What is it, Luo?” Feng Ao Si could clearly notice the changes in Nan Luo’s expression.

“Ah…. Just be prepared to stand here for some time. Brother Ao Kuai is really good at debating when he really meant to, so we might have to stay here for a long time if the other party is someone who’s good at answering.” Nan Luo sighed.

He had practiced with Feng Ao Kuai from time to time to make sure that he still understood the rules and the importance of speaking. It was just…. When Feng Ao Kuai truly put his mind into it, no one would be able to stop him.

In the first place, Feng Ao Kuai had vast knowledge from the so many books that he had read and memorized. He himself didn’t like talking when it was not important. But when it comes to debating…

Nan Luo was sure that Feng Ao Kuai could really put those officials at the Imperial Palace to shame with his knowledge and ability.

Thankfully, the guards were not good at talking.

And under Feng Ao Kuai’s relentless attack towards their conscience, rules, and even to the point of involving their family members, they surrendered.

“We can get in now.” Feng Ao Kuai turned around.

And what greeted him was the sight of Mu Sheng Xi looking at him strangely while Feng Ao Si was yawning sleepily. Nan Luo smiled bitterly and raised his hand. “You’re the best, Brother Ao Kuai.”

.....

Feng Ao Kuai nodded.

Mu Sheng Xi looked at Feng Ao Kuai for a moment then nodding. “I guess I can leave my cousin to you now.”

“…”

Feng Ao Kuai was utterly speechless when he heard Mu Sheng Xi’s words. Didn’t this annoying man just provoked him continuously because he disagreed with the matter? What made him change his mind right away?

Both Nan Luo and Feng Ao Si were struggling to hold their laugh when they saw Feng Ao Kuai’s dark face.

Not everyone was capable of offending Feng Ao Kuai.

And for them to be able to see it upfront when someone dared to tease him… it was gold.

“If you laugh, I’ll make sure you won’t be able to show your face to your soldiers anymore.” Feng Ao Kuai was sullen.

Nan Luo and Feng Ao Si shut up.

They didn’t want to give any chance for Feng Ao Kuai to realize his words as they quickly ordered the soldiers to get in. In any case, they better settled the matter first.

The governor was originally enraged when he found out that the guards let the solders in. But with Mu Sheng Xi threatened with sword and Feng Ao Kuai spouting so many laws and regulation, he had to surrender.

If he didn’t, his life would be over.

Over with a capital O.

Since it meant both literally and also figuratively as the two youths in front of him would really realize their threat.

“This is the first time I feel that they can actually work together so well.” Nan Luo was speechless.

He had heard the many incidents at the frontline when Mu Sheng Xi made things difficult for Feng Ao Kuai. It was to the point that Feng Ao Kuai was really itching to get revenge if only they were not in the midst of an important war.

But now that the two of them were no longer going against each other…

Nan Luo found out that they could actually pass as brothers.

“This is the reports of all the incidents.” Feng Ao Kuai passed the stack of bamboo scrolls to Nan Luo. “Help me sort them all out. There are too many of them.”

“Alright. We’ll need a place to do it.”

Mu Sheng Xi pointed at the building beside them. “I have already booked an entire inn. It should be enough for us to go through everything soon.”

“Good, then.”

“Also, Cousin Ao Si, do tell the soldiers to build tent outside the city. It’s much cheaper than renting inns.”

“Got it.”

Most of the soldiers would surely stay outside the city and only a small portion stayed inside the city. Feng Ao Si was already familiar with this arrangement, so he quickly gave the order.

As for the four of them… they were busy sorting through the many documents.

There were simply too many of them.

“Just how many cases are there?” Nan Luo was frustrated when he read the content and felt that it was never ending.

“It’s not just from Tou City but also from the villages nearby. It’s stated that there are some people who suddenly act crazy and attack others. Many of them are actually members of the village.” Mu Sheng Xi frowned.

Feng Ao Kuai silently browsed through the report with his brows creased. So far, the cases didn’t state that the attackers were noble children. In fact, all the youths who attacked them were stated to be members of the village.

Why was it different from them?

“The only similarities are this doll tag.” Feng Ao Si rubbed his forehead. He felt that his heart hurt after looking at so many documents. There was no way he could possibly withstand staying here for a long period of time.

Even back then, he felt that all of these writings were only going to make him hurt his head even more.

“Their number are increasing.”

“How many youths are there actually?” Nan Luo sighed and put the document away. He glanced back where Nan Hua was standing. “Nan, do you have the report of the missing people from the Capital City.”

“It’s on the way.” Nan Hua had ordered people from the Dark Moon Organization to work on this. The report should be delivered by night.

“Got it.”

Mu Sheng Xi looked at the three youths in front of him then at Nan Hua. He had the feeling that the relationship between Nan Luo and this ‘Nan’ was not as simple as Master and servant.

In fact, they sounded closer than that.
