Chapter 179 Revival (1)
Zhou Shu only treated Meng Bai’s words as business flattery.
He had never said what Zhou Shu had to do during this trip or what goals he had to achieve.
Great Xia’s number one Forging Master? Zhou Shu wasn’t the kind of person who would get arrogant just because someone praised him.
He wouldn’t do anything that didn’t benefit him.
!!
After the small interlude with Han Dazhi, the Great Xia diplomatic mission’s speed increased. In less than a day, they arrived outside Hangu Pa.s.s.
The so-called Hangu Pa.s.s was actually a canyon.
The canyon was as long as a hundred miles. On both sides of the canyon were towering cliffs and precipices. The wonder of creation was astonishing
When Great Xia’s diplomatic mission arrived outside Hangu Pa.s.s, many people had already set up camp there.
Shi Songtao was experienced and knowledgeable, so he gave Zhou Shu a simple introduction.
There were the diplomatic missions from Great Liang, Great Wei—Great Xia’s archenemy-and three other countries.
The diplomatic mission from most of the ten countries had arrived.
Zhou Shu also saw what Han Dazhi meant by Hangu Pa.s.s being blocked.
At the entrance of Hangu Pa.s.s, there were Great Qin soldiers wearing black armor guarding it. They were so densely packed that it was impossible to see their heads.
The entrance to Hangu Pa.s.s was only so wide. Now that Great Qin soldiers were guarding it, it was impossible for even one man to pa.s.s through.
If the diplomatic missions from the various countries wanted to go through, they had to get permission from the other party.
“Deputy Envoy Shi, go and ask how we can go through.”
Zhou Shu was already quite proficient at being a leader. It was very simple. He wouldn’t do anything that others could do. He would just treat himself as useless…
Shi Songtao didn’t refuse. He was already used to it. Most of the time, he had the illusion that he was the leader of the diplomatic mission.
He did everything!
Shi Songtao brought two officials from the Ministry of Rites to communicate with Great Qin, while Zhou Shu curiously sized up the diplomatic missions from the other countries.
His gaze landed on the camp of the Great Wei diplomatic mission.
Just as he was observing the Great Wei camp, a person suddenly walked out of the central army tent.
Upon seeing this person, Zhou Shu’s pupils suddenly contracted. His body, which was sitting on a horse, straightened up.
Lu Wenshuang noticed Zhou Shu’s reaction and thought that there was an enemy. She raised her right hand and grabbed the hilt of the sword revealed above her shoulder. She instantly became a sharp sword.
The next moment, a puzzled expression appeared on her face. She didn’t sense any enemies nearby.
Following Zhou Shu’s gaze, they saw a tall and slender young man in white nodding toward them.
“You know him?” Lu Wenshuang said.
Zhou Shu glanced at her. Lu Wenshuang was not a talkative person. Along the way, she had spoken less than ten sentences!
“Shen Yue!” Zhou Shu frowned. “He was once the deputy envoy of the Great Wei diplomatic mission to Great Xia. I’ve met him a few times!”
Zhou Shu’s tone was very calm, but his heart was already in turmoil.
Shen Yue!
It’s Shen Yue!
He remembered that during the You Prefecture incident, Yang Hong had once told him that after the Divine Constable Bureau chased after the Great Wei diplomatic mission, they had met Shen Yue.
At the time, he didn’t think much of it, thinking that the Divine Constable Bureau saw someone disguised as him.
After all, this world also had disguising techniques. Yang Hong and the others were not very familiar with Shen Yue, so it was not difficult to deceive them.
Looking at it now, Yang Hong and the rest indeed saw Shen Yue!
Zhou Shu never thought that he would see Shen Yue again!
Back then, Shen Yue had indeed died under his Great Destroyer Sword. Even the Legendary Armament Canon had given him benefits, so how could he not have died?
If the one who died under his sword wasn’t Shen Yue, then who was it?
Although they were far away, Zhou Shu was certain that the person in the camp of the Great Wei diplomatic mission was indeed Shen Yue, the one who had competed with him in forging!
But at the time, there was no problem with the aura of the Shen Yue he killed. He was very sure that this person was Shen Yue!
Two Shen Yues?
“Deputy Envoy Lu, is there any revival technique in this world?” Zhou Shu asked in a low voice.
“No,” Lu Wenshuang said coldly.
If there was no revival technique, what was going on?
Even if Shen Yue had a twin brother, their auras couldn’t be exactly the same.
It was impossible that Lu Wenshuang wouldn’t know the existence of a revival technique in this world.
Lu Wenshuang was not an ordinary person. She was the eldest daughter of the Lu family of Qingzhou, the number one Martial Dao genius of Great Xia. If a revival technique really existed, it was impossible for her not to know.
In the Great Wei camp, Shen Yue cupped his hands toward Zhou Shu as if they were old friends reuniting.
Zhou Shu’s expression became rather ugly. If Shen Yue really came back from the dead, will my secret be safe?
After Shen Yue cupped his hands toward Zhou Shu, he leisurely walked into another tent. From beginning to end, his att.i.tude was very friendly and didn’t seem threatening at all.
Zhou Shu frowned in thought for a moment, his expression grim as he arrived in front of Meng Bai’s carriage.
“Great General, I have something to discuss with you!” Zhou Shu said in a low voice.
“Come up.” Meng Bai’s voice sounded.
The coachman, who had been guarding the carriage all this time, opened up a gap. Zhou Shu jumped onto the carriage.
