Capítulo 1398: Chapter 1382: Master of Both Literary and Martial Arts (Part 2)

“Lord Huyan, you’re too kind. If we continued, I would’ve surely lost. Please offer your guidance in the future.”

“No problem, Mr. Song. Let me host you here, I’ve already arranged a place for you to stay.”

“Then I’ll trouble Lord Huyan. I need to think through some matters.”

Song Xiaodong and Qingluan were taken to a side room in the backyard, which consisted of a row of three rooms, just their accommodation. Within such a city, this was quite a luxurious arrangement.

Inside the room stood two young girls, appearing to be around sixteen or seventeen, both beautifully formed like carved jade.

“Sir, Madam!” The two of them bowed respectfully.

“What’s this?” Song Xiaodong asked.

The two girls sneaked a glance at Song Xiaodong, then the girl on the left whispered, “I’m Huarui, and she is Huaqing. We will be in charge of your meals and daily life, and warm the bed for you.”

“Warm the bed…” Song Xiaodong’s expression suddenly became colorful.

Then a sharp pain came from his waist, turning around he saw Qingluan glaring at him fiercely.

Chapter 1383: Discussion

“Ahem!” Song Xiaodong coughed lightly, saying, “Alright, you go ahead with your duties, my wife and I need to rest.”

Huarui and Huaqing nodded in agreement, Huarui said, “Sir, Madam, we are in the next room, please instruct us anytime.”

After the two exited, Qingluan closed the door, glaring at Song Xiaodong fiercely, “You sure hit the ground running, just arrived here and became a strategist, and now have two girls warming your bed.”

Facing Qingluan’s gaze, Song Xiaodong’s face bore a smile, “I seem to smell a strong scent of jealousy.”

“Jealousy… huh, you’re imagining things. Do you really think I’d be jealous for you? What a joke, I won’t be jealous for you. Go ahead, find your little girls to warm your bed, I won’t bother with you. Anyway, I still intend to kill you, die under the peony, at least be a happy ghost.”

Song Xiaodong reached out and hugged Qingluan’s waist, “Even if I die under the peony, I would die under you, this peony.”

“Let go of me, go to your little bed-warming girls.” Qingluan shrugged Song Xiaodong off, but once his arm was released, he immediately embraced her again. Qingluan twisted her body, “Stop clinging to me, I get annoyed seeing you.”

Song Xiaodong held Qingluan and sat on the bed, “Stop being so awkward, those two little girls can’t compare to you.”

Qingluan turned her head away from Song Xiaodong, saying, “Hmph, I’m not your anything, whether you enjoy yourself is your concern.”

“I’m just adapting to the local customs. This is their way of thinking. If we insist on bringing our modern thinking here, no matter how advanced, it will cause trouble. We’re not here to make something big; our main goal is to find the way out. If they can enter, they must be able to exit.”

Qingluan’s eyes lit up, “You’re right, we do need to find that place.”

Song Xiaodong nodded, “Yeah, but it’s been over two thousand years, I’m afraid these people wouldn’t know where the passage is anymore. We need to unite all these people to help us find the exit. Just relying on the two of us, it would take forever.”

“You really have a belly full of tricky ideas, huh? Guess all those women at your home were tricked by you like this?”

Song Xiaodong’s face darkened, “Your mind sure jumps quickly, talking about serious business and you switch to this.”

Qingluan raised her chin, “Why not? I’m always reminding myself not to be fooled by you.”

“Is that so?” Song Xiaodong squinted his eyes, suddenly kissing Qingluan.

“Bastard!” Qingluan’s words were once again cut off in her throat, as she symbolically struggled twice, yet again lost to Song Xiaodong’s kiss; she was becoming increasingly powerless to resist, this struggle was becoming less meaningful.

After quite a while, Song Xiaodong let go of Qingluan, the two were now lying on the bed, Qingluan’s clothes even more disheveled.

“Bastard, you bullied me again.” Qingluan glared at Song Xiaodong with embarrassment, yet her charm was undeniable.

“Hehe, bullying you always makes me particularly excited.” Song Xiaodong grinned.

Qingluan said arrogantly, “Hmph, just wait, when I kill you, you won’t be excited then.” Then she didn’t bother to fix her clothes, ogled and touched anyway, most importantly, his hand was still on her chest, who knows if he would bully her again, fixing would be in vain.

Song Xiaodong said, “Alright, let’s talk after we get out, but to achieve this isn’t easy. Think about Huyan Lie’s skills, already so strong, and there are other more skilled individuals, plus I see the soldiers’ levels aren’t weak either. If they were to be taken to modern times, they’d be family guards sought after by various clans.”

Qingluan nodded, “Indeed, the martial arts heritage here is strong, if we could acquire their martial arts heritage, perhaps our abilities would improve greatly.”

“We can discuss this later, have you noticed their equipment is quite poor? They don’t have knives or swords, at most a spear, and the spearheads are basically stone, indicating there’s no metal refining here. If we brought some modern items, it might have a magical effect.”

“You want to make things? It’s probably not that easy, first, there’s no iron mine here, second, they light fires carefully, indicating the oxygen here isn’t sufficient, if we do something oxygen-consuming, everyone here might suffocate.”

Song Xiaodong praised, “You’re very right, it’s impractical, but crystals are better than their stone and bone tools, this could enhance the city’s combat capability.”

“That’s a method, but with their high martial arts abilities, a weapon upgrade might be limited?”

“Even with high martial arts skills, when hundreds fight together, martial arts often can’t be utilized, weapons then play a big role. Of course, our main thought is not to initiate war but to defeat them without a battle using other means.”

“Sounds simple, but do you have concrete methods?” Qingluan asked.

“I haven’t thought of one yet. Regarding strategy, I do have some experience, but for real tactics, I’m more learned than them but not like those great strategists who can come up with a good plan on the spot.”

Qingluan smirked, “That’s as good as saying nothing.”

“We’ll think about it slowly, first establish ourselves here, then find solutions elsewhere. Let’s get up, stop lying, we’ll go out for a walk, truly experience the ancient life, this is a true adventure across time.”

Saying this, Song Xiaodong sat up.

Qingluan sat up while fixing her clothes, angrily retorting, “Bastard, you were pestering me, now you say I’m lying in bed.”

Song Xiaodong chuckled, “Agreed, agreed, I didn’t control myself, entranced by Miss Qingluan’s beauty, thus derailing the serious business, ask Miss Qingluan for forgiveness.”

“Hmph, as long as you know. Let’s go.” Qingluan satisfied, jumped off the bed, boasting like a little princess, oh, she indeed is a little princess!
