I am the villain in the book

An hour later, Shen Shi (3-5 PM).

With a “satisfied” expression, Yang Liu Shi boarded the carriage under Liang Zhen's suspicious gaze, and then they set off together to meet Du Chang outside the city.

If there were no accidents, they would lead ten thousand elite Shu soldiers into the mountains from the outskirts of the Shiwan Mountains in three days, and there they would meet the ten thousand demon beasts selected by Qing Xian.

Although these ten thousand unshaped demon beasts were of various types, they all possessed relatively high intelligence.

They would become the mounts of the ten thousand elite Shu soldiers, and after training and running-in, they would form a brand new “Heavenly Dog Army”.

Then, this army, sufficient to shake the world, would suddenly appear on the battlefield one day in the future, becoming the key to the victory of Shu's “self-defense counterattack”.

"."

The carriage had disappeared from sight. Wei Changtian, having temporarily relieved a worry, retracted his gaze, shook his head, and turned to walk back to the small house.

The sky had turned a faint red, and there was less than an hour before dinner.

Usually, this time should be the liveliest time in the small house, but now it was a bit deserted.

Chu Xianping had left, Liang Zhen had left, Du Chang had left, and Yang Liu Shi had left.

Xu Qingwan and Lu Jingyao were busy at Yingfengsheng calculating how to “speculate on grain”.

Ning Yuke and Qing Xian were witnessing the groundbreaking of “Datong City” in the south.

Everyone suddenly became busy, but he inexplicably became idle.

Now the imperial army was still in Yuanzhou, and it would be at least half a month before the war broke out.

And his previous plans had already been arranged, and more would have to wait until the battle really started before further plans could be made.

So, at this moment, Wei Changtian suddenly felt a little bored.

Of course, he was not really idle.

For example, “researching firearms” and completing his previously conceived grand plan of “universal conscription”.

For example, inquiring about the latest movements of Ning Yongnian and Bai Youheng.

And, for example, cultivation...

Thinking of cultivation, Wei Changtian couldn't help but feel a headache.

“Dream Dao” was good, but he could only practice martial arts in dreams, but he couldn't use it for cultivation.

Therefore, his previous realm improvement was basically靠着 “Spirit Absorption”, by killing monsters to directly “extract experience”.

However, since he hadn't killed a single monster in the past six months in Dafeng, his realm had naturally not improved at all, and he had been stuck at the fifth rank for a long time.

It was estimated that a pile of demon beasts had been accumulated at Xiaoqingshan, so why not go and kill a wave?

The third rank was a bit far, but at least he should rush to the fourth rank first.

That made sense.

Thinking like this, Wei Changtian prepared to have Zhang San prepare a carriage, wanting to go to Xiaoqingshan to eat the “experience” accumulated in the past six months first.

However, at this moment, a gust of wind suddenly blew up in the garden not far away for no reason.

Huh?

What's going on?!

Wei Changtian suddenly turned his head, his eyes narrowed, and his hand had already rested on the hilt of his sword.

This gust of wind was not blowing in from outside the wall, and the affected area was very small, so it was obviously impossible to be a natural phenomenon.

Of course, he couldn't say for sure what the specific situation was, but any abnormality must be a demon, and it definitely wouldn't be anything good!

He exchanged a glance with Zhang San not far away, and the two slowly walked towards the violently shaking flowers.

And as they got closer and closer, the wind became more and more violent, even reaching the point where it could roll up the gravel on the ground.

Damn it!

Could it be that Ning Yongnian was launching a sneak attack? Stealing the base?

For a time, countless guesses flooded Wei Changtian's mind, which made his expression even more ugly.

But just as his nerves had been stretched to the extreme, the wind suddenly stopped.

The branches and leaves slowly stopped shaking, and the petals rolled up in the air also gently fell to the ground.

Instantly widening his eyes, looking at A Chun who was less than a zhang away from him, Wei Changtian had even more question marks in his mind than just now.

No, what's the situation?

Disappearing act?

“How did you get here?”

Wei Changtian walked up to the somewhat uneasy A Chun and asked with a frown, “Were you hiding here all along just now?”

“Master, no, it's not like that.”

A Chun twisted her fingers, looking like she wanted to say something but hesitated, “I was just in the backyard.”

“In the backyard?”

Wei Changtian was even more puzzled: “Then how did you come over?”

“This, this, Grandmaster won't let me say.”

Grandmaster?

Wei Changtian immediately realized that A Chun was referring to Old Zhangtou.

But what does this have to do with Old Zhangtou?

Although it was true that Old Zhangtou was now teaching A Chun and A Gou to cultivate, but—

Wait a minute!

Suddenly, Wei Changtian seemed to understand something.

Good!

You old bastard!

I just said that I couldn't figure out how you escaped in the Ximo Gobi back then!

So you were holding back a trick from me, right!

A quarter of an hour later.

“Talk about it!”

Wei Changtian grabbed A Chun and found Old Zhangtou, and directly questioned him as soon as they met: “What's this trick called?”

"."

Faced with the conclusive evidence of “caught red-handed”, Old Zhangtou knew that things had been “exposed”, and after holding back for a long time, he finally gave the answer.

“This is my unique skill, the Escape Technique.”

“Escape Technique?”

Wei Changtian was slightly stunned, and then continued to question: “Then why haven't you ever told me about this before?”

“You didn't ask.”

Old Zhangtou glared back unwillingly: “Why should I say it?”

“Okay, I know now anyway.”

Wei Changtian had just witnessed the magic of the Escape Technique with his own eyes, so now he didn't want to be shameless anymore, and directly urged: “Since you have taught this thing to A Chun, there is no reason not to teach it to me, right?”

“Hmph! I'll teach whoever I want to teach.”

Old Zhangtou looked unhappy: “A Chun at least calls me Grandmaster, but you, this evil disciple...”

“Master!”

Wei Changtian made a decisive decision, and immediately changed his face without saying a word: “Master, what are you talking about!”

“This disciple has always respected you very much in his heart. I called you Old Zhangtou before because I thought the title was more affectionate.”

“If you don't want me to, then I won't call you that in the future.”

“Look at this Escape Technique...”

“I won't teach it!”

“Ahem, Master, tonight at Manchunlou, are three girls enough?”

“Hiss, three... Don't try to trick me! I won't teach it!”

“What about five?”

“. I won't teach it!”

“Master, I can't add any more! I'm afraid your old body can't take it...”

“I said I won't teach it, and I won't teach it!”

"."

Good!

Seeing that Old Zhangtou's attitude was so firm, Wei Changtian immediately sneered.

“Master, don't forget that you have already taught this Escape Technique to A Chun!”

“If you don't teach, then I'll let A Chun teach!”

"? ? ?"

The few remaining long beards trembled for a while, and Old Zhangtou never expected that Wei Changtian would be so shameless.

He was silent for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly.

“Alas, if you really want to learn, it's not impossible.”

“But you have to promise me one condition first.”

“What condition?”

Wei Changtian immediately grinned and leaned forward: “As long as this disciple can do it, I will!”

“Hmph!”

Old Zhangtou glanced at Wei Changtian, and his expression slowly became serious.

“You send a few people to escort me out for a trip.”

“Go out? Where to?”

"."

Without answering immediately, Old Zhangtou looked up at the sunset glow outside the window.

“I want to go back to Baidian to take a look.”
