Chapter 234 I have this day too
In the bustling city, Zhang Liang played and frolicked with a lively little golden monkey.
The little golden monkey became more and more clever and full of energy. Zhang Liang looked at it helplessly and was about to take a rest when suddenly a black figure passed by the window. He clenched the long sword in his hand and jumped out of the window in an instant.
Outside, Dongjun was sitting alone on the balcony of her apartment, looking up at the bright moon in the night sky. Zhang Liang walked over to her, sat down next to her, and asked calmly:
"Why are you here, Dongjun?" Dongjun did not respond directly, but asked back: "What are you pursuing?"
Zhang Liang pointed to the bright moon and asked Dong Jun: "Do you think the moon is far away from us?" Dong Jun nodded. In this technologically advanced world, even if you reach the level of a top master, you cannot touch the moon. You can only absorb its energy at most. His goal is to cross the boundaries of this world and open up new horizons.
After listening to Zhang Liang's words, Dong Jun smiled and said: "Your ideals are so lofty, no wonder you no longer care about the affairs of the Seven Kingdoms after protecting the Zhang family. Your heart is not in this world. Now I understand why I have never been able to surpass you? Because my heart has been bound to this land, running for its peace. And you can explore freely."
Zhang Liang smiled: "You came to me today just to talk about this? In fact, you can be like me, as long as you are willing to let go of the burden in your heart, you can also face the world bravely and take that step." Dongjun shook his head: "I still have a lot to let go of, I can't be as free and easy as you. In fact, I envy your life, you can do whatever you want, and take action when you are unhappy."
After a conversation, Dongjun slowly stood up, stared at Zhang Liang, and said softly: "Thank you, I am very happy today." Then, she floated away alone. Zhang Liang watched her go farther and farther away, and sighed softly: "Why bother."
Not long after Dongjun left, Zhang Liang had a bad feeling in his heart. He had originally planned to practice, but his mind became increasingly uneasy. Finally, he left the apartment with the little golden monkey and headed for the Wonderland Building.
Walking on the road, he heard the sound of fighting in the distance. Zhang Liang hurried over, but when he arrived at the scene, there was only a pool of blood and a dart thrown aside. Zhang Liang picked up the dart and examined it carefully, and found a strange mark on the tail of the dart.
As he was about to leave, he noticed that the bloodstain slowly revealed the word "smoke" under the moonlight. Zhang Liang was shocked and immediately realized that it was left by Dongjun. But who took her away? Dongjun had reached the late stage of the Grandmaster's cultivation, and ordinary people could not approach her at all, let alone take her away. Moreover, she had just left him and met with an accident.
At this time, the little golden monkey jumped off Zhang Liang's shoulder, sniffed the blood on the ground, then jumped back onto Zhang Liang's shoulder and pointed in a direction. Zhang Liang pondered for a moment: "You mean they went there?" The little golden monkey nodded, and Zhang Liang immediately followed in that direction, ready to rescue Dongjun, after all, she left from him.
If something really happened to her, he would not be able to rest easy. Following the guidance of the little golden monkey, he came to the city wall and climbed over it. But the city wall was full of guards, and if she really left, it would be impossible not to be discovered. Zhang Liang searched carefully and finally found a dark tunnel entrance in the grass in the corner of the city wall.
Zhang Liang jumped into the tunnel and found bloodstains on the edge. He went deeper into the tunnel and soon saw a faint light ahead. When he approached the light source, he found that he had left the city. There was a big mountain opposite. Zhang Liang blamed himself and said, "I am still a step late, but I still have to chase them. I don't believe they can run faster than me with the wounded."
Following the instructions of the little golden monkey, Zhang Liang found the traces of wheels in a forest area only half a day later. It seemed that they took Dongjun away in a carriage. Judging from the freshness of the wheel tracks, they should have left not long ago.
Zhang Liang ran after them and indeed found a carriage parked at the edge of the forest, but no one was around. Zhang Liang wondered: Did they abandon the carriage and leave? At this time, he felt the sound of wind behind him.
Zhang Liang swung his sword back instantly, making a clang sound. He saw a man in black standing not far away, holding a sharp dagger in his hand. It was the one who had just attacked him.
The man in black said in a hoarse voice: "I didn't expect someone to chase me. In that case, prepare to die." After that, he attacked with his sword without waiting for Zhang Liang to respond. This man's swordsmanship was superb, but after fighting with Zhang Liang, Zhang Liang saw that he was not at the level of "land immortal", but should be at the late stage of the master, or perhaps the peak of the master.
Zhang Liang had never heard of such a master who was good at swordsmanship. After two moves, the man in black realized that Zhang Liang was very powerful and it was difficult for him to be subdued by himself.
After fighting for a move, the man in black retreated and said to Zhang Liang: "Who are you? If you don't want to cause trouble, leave now and forget about today's matter. Otherwise, no matter who you are, you have to stay here." Zhang Liang smiled and said: "Come on, I haven't met such an interesting opponent for a long time."
Zhang Liang did not wait for the opponent to attack, but took the initiative to attack. The Changsheng Sword took the lead in attacking, performing the first move of Zhenwu Sword Technique, "Kaishan Style". The man in black was not to be outdone, and his swordsmanship was even more fierce, using some unknown moves. Zhang Liang thought at this time that if he was any later, he might not be able to catch up with Dongjun.
The little golden monkey suddenly jumped on the man in black and grabbed his chest. The man in black just reacted and almost fainted from the severe pain. Zhang Liang seized the opportunity, quickly approached and stabbed him with a sword.
The man in black coughed up blood and looked at the little golden monkey who retreated to Zhang Liang's side. He said intermittently: "I didn't expect that I would have this day. I was attacked by this little guy..." Seeing that the man in black was gradually fading, Zhang Liang asked: "Where did you take Dongjun?"
