The reason he joined the war was not for anything else, but to reduce the casualties among the grassroots people of China!
Liu Xun does not have Lin Shichen's great ideal of establishing a world government, nor does he have Wu Tian's ambition to rise in troubled times! He will not conquer the whole world, nor will he create a new era. He just wants to protect China!
"Are you... leaving?" Shi Meng didn't know whether she should say this, but she said it anyway.
"Yes, I must face it!" Liu Xun took a deep breath and looked at Shi Meng with complicated eyes. He felt that he owed this woman too much.
If it weren't for Shi Meng's blood, Liu Xun would have died when the bullet pierced his heart. Now that he knew all the inside story, Liu Xun could feel a subtle resonance between himself and Shi Meng.
After Liu Xun finished speaking, Shi Meng lowered her head, like a child who had done something wrong, and murmured softly: "Can I... go with you?"
"..." Liu Xun was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Of course, it would be great if you could help me."
To be honest, Liu Xun didn't want to separate from Shi Meng. Being with this woman, Liu Xun felt that the feeling was different from being with other women. When he was with Shi Meng, Liu Xun felt very calm, without any desire, only the tranquility of returning to nature.
"Okay, let's go back. Your clothes have been covered with dust these days. It's time to change them." Liu Xun is a human being. It is impossible for him to be as dust-free as Shi Meng.
"Okay, go back and prepare, we'll leave here together." Liu Xun stretched out his hand to Shi Meng, and the two of them walked towards the dragon vein hand in hand.
When he returned to the dragon vein, Liu Xun picked out a black casual suit, but at this moment, Qilin Ci's voice rang in his mind: "Boy, are you going to leave here?"
"Yes, let's leave here." After regaining his memory, Liu Xun became less immature and more steady.
"Can you remain calm now? That thing... we must take it away!" Qilin Thorn knew that once the war started, it would take many years to return to this place, so it had to take out that thing before leaving.
"What on earth is it that makes you miss it so much?" Liu Xun asked curiously. The thing that Qilin Ci is obsessed with must not be a simple thing, right
"Anyway, you'll know once you take it out." Qilin Thorn still didn't tell Liu Xun, keeping him in suspense.
"If you don't tell me what it is, I won't take it!" Liu Xun was too lazy to argue with Qilin Ci and said in a firm tone.
Qilin Ci fell silent for about ten seconds, then said, "Think about it, can your current identity be made public? The whole world thinks you are dead. How dangerous would it be if you go out like this? Although you can disguise yourself, there are always people who are better than you. If you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet. If you keep going like this, you will eventually be discovered!"
After the words fell, Liu Xun nodded and said in his heart: "What you said makes sense, but... is this matter related to the thing you mentioned?"
"There must be a connection, otherwise why would I be so bored telling you all this?" Seeing that Liu Xun was interested, Qilin Ci kept the secret again.
"I say, if you want to express something, it's best to say it directly in one breath! Do you think it's fun to only say half of a sentence? I don't have that much patience to accompany you to be stupid!" Liu Xun said with some impatience.
"... "Qilin Ci was speechless for a moment, then said: "Isn't it okay? In fact, the thing inside is a mask. I can guarantee that as long as you put on that mask, no one can recognize you! Even the person with double pupils in your memory can't recognize you!"
"... "Liu Xun's face darkened. How could this guy... see his own memories? And he could just look at them and tell them out loud without blushing or beating his heart
"It's just of little use, why would I risk my life to get it?" Liu Xun didn't believe that a mask would make Qilin Ci so obsessed with it.
"To tell you the truth, this is the mask of my first master. But don't underestimate it because it is just a mask. It is not an ordinary mask!" Qilin Ci said seriously.
"What kind of mask is that?" Liu Xun asked casually.
"I don't know either..." Qilin Thorn's words sounded a little awkward, but Liu Xun could tell that it wasn't lying this time.
"Since you don't know either, why should we take it out?" Liu Xun asked with a frown.
"Although I don't know much about the mask, it has been fought over by people for a long time, and was finally sealed in a cave by a powerful person! The powerful person originally wanted to destroy the mask, but unfortunately... he didn't have the ability to do so, so he could only seal it."
At this point, Qilin Ci's tone became a little high-profile, and he continued: "Think about it, if something can be fought over by the world, then what else can it be but a good thing? Don't you think so?"
"Uh..." Liu Xun fell silent. In fact, without Qilin Ci telling him, he knew that this mask was not simple, because how could something that could be in the same place with Longyin Sword, Fengming Robe and Qilin Ci be a simple thing
"Well, since I'm short of a mask, I'll trust you this time." Liu Xun still couldn't resist the temptation of the Qilin Thorn and took the bait.
...
At the same time, Wang Xi spent three days and finally found the whereabouts of the three Japanese ninjas.
Just as Wu Tian expected, the three ninjas were lurking in China. When Wang Xi arrived at their residence, he found no less than dozens of shriveled corpses, all of which were Chinese.
With his brows furrowed, a hint of anger flashed in Wang Xi's eyes, but when he thought of the words of the Five Elements of Gold, it turned into helplessness.
"Chinese ancient warrior, what are you doing here? If you want to kill us... you are not good enough on your own." Just when Wang Xi stepped into their residence, three ninjas discovered Wang Xi's whereabouts.
"I'm here to give you a big gift. It depends on whether you dare to accept it." Wang Xi closed his eyes, not looking at the shriveled corpses, and said in a cold voice.
"A big gift? How interesting! A Chinese ancient warrior comes to give us a big gift? To use your Chinese words... it's like a weasel paying a New Year's visit to a chicken, with no good intentions, right?" The female ninja from Japan snorted coldly.
"I've already said it, it's up to you whether you believe it or not. If you don't believe it, there's no need for me to stay here any longer. Goodbye!" After Wang Xi finished speaking, he was ready to turn around and leave.
"Wait, what gift? You tell me first." Just as Wang Xi was about to leave, the new ninja who inherited the Death Ninja's legacy spoke.
(Today is the third update. Now is the stage of laying the groundwork for the plot, which is difficult to write, so I really can't keep up with the previous five updates. I hope you understand!) (To be continued)
