Rebirth: Living in Wilderness with My Superpower-Chapter 977: Cunning Big Beard

"Moreover, it is said that Yuwen Song has taken the Imperial Capital, and now in the south, only Yuwen Song and Yuwen Jun remain!"

"Just you wait and see, Yuwen Song will definitely pursue his victory. Forget about ’three upheavals without destruction.’ Once Yuwen Song leads his troops to the Eastern Land, everything here will be plundered!"

The so-called ’three upheavals without destruction’ refers to the great turmoil in Baiju Country, the infighting among the nine Third Princes, and Yuwen Luanfei borrowing a path to head north.

Biluo has stood tall through three major turmoils, and the common folk boast that this place is blessed.

However, Big Beard believes that such luck will soon vanish.

Yuwen Song’s army, having starved in the barren Western Region, will not be satisfied with just the Imperial Capital. The Eastern Land, this juicy piece of meat, is bound to be their next target. And how could the pampered Soldiers of the Eastern Land possibly contend with them?

Thinking of something, Big Beard muttered to himself: "Actually, this Fifth Prince is no pushover. These two brothers foolishly battling it out will ultimately just hand over the land to someone else."

"How do you know that?" Bai Junjun raised an eyebrow.

"Yuwen Luanfei is the best example. Two hundred thousand Hanying Army men were silently suppressed in the Northern Lands. Isn’t that enough? I’m afraid that he’s the real tiger. But you just listen, don’t go spouting this outside as my words. I won’t admit to it."

Big Beard’s analysis of the situation was sharp, not like it was his first time discussing such matters with others, and he didn’t forget to completely dissociate himself, revealing how the common people often privately concoct stories about The Celestial Family.

It’s a pity that even commoners can see things clearly, but these Princes cannot, or perhaps they see the truth but are unwilling to give up the temptations before them.

For example, Yuwen Song had such a great opportunity to seize the Imperial Capital, and it really isn’t something everyone can resist. Besides, sometimes people have an inexplicable confidence in themselves, believing they are the Chosen One, capable of surmounting all difficulties and eliminating all obstacles.

Therefore, even knowing the dangers, they would risk all for greater gains.

"We’ve talked enough about the heavens. You should also start making plans for yourselves. I need to pack up and leave this place too." Big Beard, happy with having earned enough for his journey home, didn’t want to waste more time after chatting for a while.

Bai Junjun shook her head, once again impressed by Big Beard’s cunning.

This outsider really is an outsider. Just look at him, ready to run off as soon as he has the money, without a shred of attachment. After spending a good fifteen years here, can’t he form some kind of emotional connection?

Big Beard laughed proudly, "Although I like it here, my family is in my homeland. I can wander for their sake, but I cannot forget the way home just because the journey is beautiful. All in all, I’m glad to have met you, and if there’s a chance, please come visit my hometown."

Li Wenli asked with a cheeky grin, "What’s the hard currency over there?"

"Ah, we really like your porcelain, silk, and tea. If you come, you can bring some along, you can exchange them for many good things."

"Alright, if there’s a chance, we’ll drop by for a visit," Bai Junjun nodded, as if making a promise with him.

Big Beard didn’t think much of it, still packing with a cheerful smile. But looking at the warehouse full of goods, he estimated that the young couple couldn’t carry it all and even offered to deliver the goods to their home.

Bai Junjun declined, saying it would be too conspicuous to carry these things away in broad daylight. She asked Big Beard to pack them up and leave them at the back door, and that she would send someone to pick them up at night.

Big Beard didn’t suspect anything and readily agreed. As if something crossed his mind, he chuckled and spoke.

"Speaking of which, I’ve had quite the fate with young couples these past few days."
