Chapter 046: Hidden Wind
Nan Kerui chatted with Nan Ke Duer for a whole hour, and then he walked out of the library with satisfaction, and after talking with Nan Ke Due, Nan Kerui's confidence increased greatly.
As soon as Nan Kerui came out of the library, Joo appeared behind him, holding the 'Starfire' and following him.
"You seem to have something on your mind?"
Nan Kerui glanced at Joo, saw that he was a little different from usual, but he couldn't speak, and looking at his expression, it always seemed that he wanted to say something and stopped, and couldn't help but ask curiously.
It stands to reason that Jolo already belongs to Nan Kerui's most trusted lineage, and he has even won Nan Kerui's trust, there is no need to hide anything at all, just open his mouth directly, and it is precisely because of this that Nan Kerui is more curious.
"Hmm. β
Joo nodded instinctively, and didn't react yet, but soon realized that something was wrong, shook his head hurriedly, and waved his hand eagerly. "No, no, no...... My subordinates are fine!"
"Tell me, if you say anything, there is nothing else to see with me. Nan Kerui had already guessed that Qiu Luo must have something to ask him, but he seemed to be embarrassed to cause trouble for Nan Kerui, and he hesitated for a while, not knowing how to decide.
"This ......," Joulo couldn't help but be embarrassed.
Nan Kerui smiled and nodded at him again with a determined face.
Joo gritted his teeth, and after some thought, finally made up his mind and fell to his knees. "The subordinates want to ask the young master for a favor in private?"
"Oh?" Nan Kerui was quite curious, this was the first time that Joo Zida had come to him, and he was also curious about what Jolo was asking for.
"You are my person, your business is also my business, as long as I can do it, I will never shirk, you don't have to be embarrassed, just say it. β
Qiu Luo heard Nan Kerui's words, and finally let go of the heart that was still hanging, since Nan Kerui agreed, then this matter is nine times out of ten, he doesn't know what kind of things in the Great Qin Empire can be difficult to stop the Nan Ke family.
"My subordinates know a gladiator in the arena, because he and his subordinates are from Jinshan Prison, we are very close on weekdays, but because of the last gladiatorial arena gambling match, we unfortunately became opponents, he lost to me, but my subordinates couldn't bear to hurt the killer, and deliberately released the water, and because of this, the subordinates were forced to fight with the four-headed mammoth, but the subordinates were much luckier than him, and they were taken in by the young master because of the blessing of misfortune, but his life is probably not easy now, and I am afraid that he will never have a chance to leave the arena in this life, and the subordinates want to ask the young master to rescue him from the sea of suffering, and the subordinates really don't want to watch him be killed alive by other gladiatorsγ β
"The subordinates assured him that he was definitely not a burden. β
Joo had a pleading look, his meaning was already clear, if Nan Ke Rui could save the other party, he would definitely be loyal to Nan Ke Rui.
"You're talking about the big guy with the mace?"
Nan Kerui remembers very clearly in his impression that in order to save his opponent's life, Qiu Luo resolutely kicked him off the arena instead of killing him with a sword, and it was precisely because of this that Nan Kerui fell in love with him at a glance and made him who he is today.
"Young Master, are you ...... You know?" Jolo's eyes widened in disbelief.
"I happened to be present in the competition between you and him, and it can be said that I watched your competition the whole time, especially at the last moment, your righteousness made me look up to you, because I know that a person with this kind of mind is definitely not just a gladiator who only knows how to fight hard, and it is precisely because of this that we are together today. Nan Kerui patted him on the shoulder and pulled him up.
"Again, your business is my business, and you will see him again tomorrow at the latest. Nan Kerui looked at Qiu Luo's expectant expression, smiled faintly, and patted his chest confidently and reassured.
For their Nan Ke family, asking for someone from the Royal Arena is simply easy, a piece of cake, even Nan Ke Rui is not allowed to go out, it can be easily handled.
"The subordinates thanked the young master for the 'dog slaughter'. Qiu Luo smiled excitedly, he knew that since Nan Kerui agreed, he was absolutely nine percent sure of this matter.
"Tomorrow is the decisive battle, go out for a walk with me, it can be regarded as a distraction. Nan Kerui patted Joo Luo, turned around and walked out, and Joo hurriedly followed with the 'Starfire'.
Nan Kerui did not leave directly, but took a detour to the Women's Garden, and bothered Shen Liang to make a special trip to the Royal Arena to ask for the 'dog slaughter' mentioned by Qiu Luo.
However, when Nan Kerui was about to leave, she was entangled by Han Han, at this time she had finished today's schoolwork, and she had to go out with Nan Kerui.
Nan Kerui couldn't resist her, and finally simply disarmed and surrendered, and brought it with Wan Guan, specifically responsible for helping Han Han carry things, don't look at Han Han's young age, but the desire to shop is not trivial, almost what to buy, if it weren't for Nan Kerui's wealth, I'm afraid she would have been hollowed out by her.
Han Han walked in the front, jumping excitedly, chattering all the way was not idle, Wan Guan followed behind with a look of resentment, shoulders, heads, and hands were all large and small, all kinds of packages.
"Brother Rui?" A slightly confused and uncertain voice sounded, making Nan Kerui, who was lowering his head and thinking about the decisive battle, raise his head suspiciously.
Not for anything else, because the voice was all too familiar to him.
A fourteen or fifteen-year-old white-clothed young man who looked about the same age as Nan Kerui greeted him from the opposite side, with an excited face. "Brother Rui is really you, I was about to go to Mirage Manor to look for you, but I didn't expect to meet you halfway. β
"Chengying?"
Nan Kerui was stunned for a short time, saw the other party's appearance clearly at close range, and finally confirmed his judgment just now, although it has changed a lot, but at least the outline is still there, Nan Kerui was also rare at this time, and then turned into a ball of joy, rushed forward with an arrow step, and gave the white-clothed young man on the opposite side a big hug.
"Stinky boy, where have you died in the past two years? Young Master Ben still thinks you have hung up!"
The young man on the opposite side was also excited, hugged Nan Kerui with his backhand, and smirked at him.
"You kid still know that you've come back, where have you been fooling around in the past two years? Nan Kerui punched Su Chengying fiercely, and his face was also full of smiles.
In the past two years, Nan Kerui has been worried about him all the time, and it is only now that he is relieved to see that Su Chengying is unharmed.
Su Chengying is the bloodline of the Su family, is Su Xiaoxiao's cousin, born a day later than Nan Kerui and Su Xiaoxiao, due to their similar age, the three of them have played together since childhood, and belong to Nan Kerui's most loyal younger brother plus followers.
Just like his name, in the eyes of outsiders, he is the shadow of Nan Kerui.
Su Chengying has been frail and sick since he was a child, and he is riddled with illness, it is said that he was taken away by a fortune teller from the traveling side two years ago, and there has been no news at all in the past two years, Nan Kerui and Su Xiaoxiao thought that they might not see him in this life, but they didn't expect him to come back again, and he looks a lot stronger than two years ago, although he is still relatively thin.
Su Chengying's original hippie smiling expression suddenly collapsed, and he rolled his eyes at Nan Kerui, with an unbearable expression of looking back on the past, and sighed.
"Hey, don't mention it, that dead old man is simply an old pervert, little brother, I was almost tortured to death. β
"What's going on?"
Although Nan Kerui is not good at gossiping, he is still very curious about this matter, he knows Su Chengying's funny skills, and there are people who can toss him without any temper, and looking at him, he still looks scared, Nan Kerui can't help but admire that person a little, and at the same time has a trace of curiosity about the other party.
"What kind of person can make Su Chengying, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, change the color of Su Lao'er's talk?" Nan Kerui muttered to himself in his heart, faintly looking forward to it.
"There's no rush on this matter, we'll talk to you slowly in the future. β
Su Chengying obviously didn't want to talk about this matter in public, seeing that he seemed to have some scruples, Nan Kerui nodded knowingly, and tacitly didn't continue to ask.
"It's Brother Rui, why did you come into a head-on conflict with that fake guy in Qin Chuan? Let me tell you, that guy is not as simple as it seems. Su Chengying approached Nan Kerui and asked in a low voice.
As he said this, a hint of worry appeared on his face.
"It's a long story, so let's find a place to sit down and talk slowly. β
Nan Kerui glanced at Su Chengying with a little meaning, and he didn't plan to continue talking on the street, since he met a playmate he hadn't seen for two years today, he was no longer idle and wandering around aimlessly, patting him on the shoulder, and hugging him to leave.
A few people found a good restaurant nearby and asked for a private room, and Nan Kerui selectively told Su Chengying what happened, but the general meaning was clearly expressed.
After Su Chengying listened to Nan Kerui's words, his brows furrowed slightly. "Although Qin Chuan is a villain, his strength should not be underestimated, as far as I know, he should now have the strength of the ninth level of the flesh body, and he belongs to the genius of the Great Qin Empire that is rare in a hundred years, if the timing is right, maybe there is still a chance to break through the innate realm in this life. β
Nan Kerui held a bowl of tea and tasted it slowly, he felt that Su Chengying must have had adventures in the past two years, at least now he is much more confident than before, and he is also much wiser, so he didn't interject, quietly waiting for his analysis, he knew that he still had the following, otherwise it would be too disappointing for him.
"If that's all, maybe Brother Rui, you still have a certain chance of winning, but he seems to have dealings with some mysterious force, and got a secret technique from the other party, which is said to be able to increase the combat effectiveness several times in a short time, if this is true, Brother Rui, I am afraid you will not have the slightest chance of winning. Su Chengying frowned, obviously worried about Nan Kerui, and listening to his tone, he didn't seem to be too optimistic about Nan Kerui.
Nan Kerui still didn't speak.
"I know Brother Rui's character, and he never fights uncertain battles, so I really want to know, Brother Rui, where does your confidence come from?" Su Chengying changed his words and asked with a puzzled face.
Nan Kerui 'groaned', it seemed that he really guessed that Qin Chuan did master the secret technique of the terrifying 'Holy Sacrifice', but since Da talked to his great-uncle and grandfather, Nan Kerui was no longer afraid of him.
Although it is not clear how true Su Chengying's news is, Nan Kerui instinctively chooses to believe that this is a silent tacit understanding between them over the years.
"You'll know then, and it's not fun to say it now. Nan Kerui smiled faintly and didn't say it directly.
Although Su Chengying has played with him to a big time, after all, the two have not seen each other for two years, and they are still at this juncture, this is too much of a coincidence, he really dare not bet, after all, tomorrow's competition is a real life-and-death struggle for him, either you die or I die.
"Actually, I'm more curious now, how do you know about these top-secret things?" Nan Kerui was quite curious about Su Chengying's experience in the past two years, looking at his current state, he should have experienced a lot of wonderful things, otherwise he would definitely not have grown so fast.
Although Nan Kerui asked this sentence, he didn't intend to get any answer, unexpectedly, Su Chengying glanced left and right, and actually came to Nan Kerui's side and whispered two words in his ear.
