The reason why he avoided traveling far away was just hoping that he could be out of sight and out of mind.
But her voice and smile were always in his heart. Instead of fading away, they became clearer.
Chu Shaobai was confused and acted casually.
He remembered that when he first met her, she once said that she wanted to fly out of that big cage and travel around freely. She said that the world was so big and she must go and see it. She wanted to travel all over the country and see everything in the world. He also promised that if one day comes, he will accompany her to see the beautiful scenery!
The words are still in my ears, but things have already changed.
She has become the queen of a country, and he can only walk alone.
No matter how beautiful the scenery is, without her company, the beautiful scenery cannot enter his eyes. In his eyes, everything is just gray and white.
Chu Shaobai just wandered around like this, going to several beautiful places, but there was no scenery in his eyes. He just drank and got drunk every day, fell asleep when he was drunk, and got drunk again when he woke up. This was how he lived day by day. Spending time in a state of drunkenness and dreams.
Until one day, he was drunk and fell asleep on the table in the tavern. He vaguely heard the people in the tavern talking about it, saying that the South Vietnam Kingdom sent a hundred thousand troops to attack Western Chu. The momentum on the road was overwhelming, and they had captured Nanguan and Shuanglu towns in succession, defeated the three groups of troops sent by the imperial court to support them, and were approaching Yuezhou.
He raised his head in a daze, thinking he was dreaming.
The words in this dream are so ridiculous!
But when he looked up, he saw that everyone in the tavern had worried faces, and they were weak when speaking, which was very different from the usual loud and noisy situation.
Because everyone knows that once Yuezhou is lost, half of the country of Western Chu will be given away, and the situation will be over!
Chu Shaobai shook his head and suddenly became more awake. He reached out and grabbed one of the people who was frothing at the mouth and asked what happened.
The man told the whole story vividly, saying that King Chu Shaoyang of Dingyuan fled to South Vietnam after treason. He was deeply favored by the South Vietnamese emperor and entrusted him with an important task. He was named King of Chu and Grand Marshal of the Army. He personally led ten troops. Wan, attack Xi Chu.
When Chu Shaobai heard the news, he almost couldn't believe his ears, and he suddenly woke up from the drunkenness.
"No way! I don't believe it! I don't believe it!"
He blurted out, with a look of disbelief on his face. He exerted force unconsciously with his fingers, and squeezed the man who spoke so hard that his wrist bones were split, and he cried out in pain.
Chu Shaobai didn't seem to hear anything. The man's words were like thunder, which made his ears roar and he couldn't hear anything.
Suddenly, he yelled, let go of the man, and ran out of the store. In the blink of an eye, the man was gone.
Everyone in the tavern was shocked. They only saw that Chu Shaobai came here to drink every day. Every time he drank, he would get drunk. He was often so drunk that he didn't know what was going on. They just thought he was an alcoholic and no one took him seriously.
It wasn't until they saw him showing off this shocking light kung fu when he left that everyone was shocked. They were all ordinary people. They had never seen such advanced kung fu before. They all thought he had encountered a ghost in broad daylight. They were so frightened that they knelt down. On the ground, he kowtowed to the air repeatedly, praying for the blessings of his ancestors and that the drunkard should never get involved with him.
The location of this tavern is actually quite far away from Yuezhou City.
