Chapter 136 Now I am a Saint
Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, Green Pepper came ashore, whispered a few things to the sheriff, and continued on his way.
"What did the Holy King say to you?" a reporter asked the sheriff.
"No comment." The sheriff's face was serious, and because it was a matter entrusted by the Holy King, a layer of urgency appeared on his face.
Amidst everyone's confusion, the sheriff personally drove the police car, siren blaring, in another direction...
Green Pepper's physical condition was very bad. On his way forward, when he wasn't feeling particularly unwell, he would choose to fly slowly close to the ground. When he got tired, he would land and walk.
When he was too tired, he would stop to rest and take a look at the scenery of this foreign land.
As we drove along, the number of police cars clearing the way increased, with dozens in front and dozens behind.
Although no one knows where he is going or what he is going to do, people have gradually reached a tacit understanding to keep their distance and observe without getting close to disturb him.
And so they traveled a very long way, stopping and starting, until a military transport plane appeared on the television screen.
As the transport plane landed on the wide highway and the rear hatch opened, a white sedan slowly drove out, gradually resolving everyone's previous doubts.
It turns out that what Green Pepper asked the police chief to do was to ask everyone to help transport his car from his hometown.
As the sheriff handed the car over to Green Pepper, Green Pepper took the opportunity to address the camera and say to the world, "I saved the world once, so it's not unreasonable for me to make this request, is it?"
Needless to say, it's not an exaggeration.
The whole world smiled silently, and applause broke out spontaneously at the scene.
The applause was an affirmative response, and also a timely congratulation on behalf of the whole world to the Holy King for slaying the dragon.
"Your Majesty, if you wish, a luxury car can be arranged for you at any time."
Why did you wait for your own car, and then walk such a long, long way to get it?
The reporter asked the question at the opportune moment. It was also a question on everyone's mind.
"When life is not going well, it shelters me from the wind and rain."
I once sat in the car and told it, "One day when I become successful, we'll see the world together."
Moreover, what lies ahead is an extremely important journey, and I cannot travel without it.
Green Pepper smiled and patted his beloved car.
He has kept his word. Not only is he driving his beloved car on the roads of a foreign land, but he is also accompanied by countless police cars. He is truly living a life of glory.
With a car, the travel speed increased significantly, covering hundreds of kilometers in a row.
The journey passes through both small towns and large cities.
No matter where you are, locals wait on both sides of the road in advance, cheering for the passing green pepper trucks and showering them with the most congratulatory flower petals.
There was a little anecdote: a famous mayor personally carried an oil drum to refuel the green pepper truck. Later, that oil drum was preserved in the local museum.
In short, on that day, the hearts of people all over the world were with Green Pepper.
The farther the journey, the more curious people become about what the green pepper is going to do.
When people's curiosity was piqued to the point of no return, Green Pepper parked the car at the foot of a mountain.
The scenery there is unique, with mountains that never frost and grasslands divided into patches at the foot of the mountains, where groups of horses roam.
Green Pepper got out of the car, looked at the seemingly endless road, and then walked down a slope.
Is the answer finally about to come out?
The world's hearts tightened. The accompanying police officers also jumped out of their vehicles and watched from a distance, waiting for the mystery to be solved.
However, when Green Pepper walked to a big tree, he actually used the tree trunk as cover to "pee".
People then realized that the Holy King simply needed to urinate.
The people present couldn't help but laugh good-naturedly, while the women politely turned their backs.
Before long, Green Pepper returned to the hillside with his belt tied around his waist, but instead of getting into the car, he handed the car keys to the sheriff.
The others resumed walking and continued forward.
The sheriff immediately arranged the convoy into formation, with his own car, the Green Pepper, leading the way, followed by the Green Pepper. Despite the chaos, the convoy moved in an orderly fashion, a magnificent sight.
People might think that the green pepper was tired from driving and wanted to change its driving style.
But only he himself knows that, within the limits of his physical capabilities, every step of the remaining journey is a testament to his sincerity...
After about seven or eight miles, a figure on horseback gradually came into view.
The man stood on his side in the middle of the road, and when he saw the Holy King's entourage approaching, he neither dodged nor yielded.
As the view zoomed in, the person's appearance gradually became clearer.
She was a beautiful woman with a long, high ponytail, wearing an ancient-style dress and a red cloak.
It looks like the scene was filmed here; they certainly look very dashing.
At this point, everyone familiar with Qingjiao (a TV host) smiled in front of their TVs, because they recognized the person – Yu Qiuyue!
"You've arrived."
Yu Qiuyue smiled as she watched the green peppers getting closer.
Upon hearing her voice, the people immediately understood that their Holy King had traveled over mountains and rivers just to reach his beloved.
Green Pepper nodded and smiled in return, appearing slightly reserved as it was their first time meeting face-to-face in real life.
How did you know I was here on a business trip?
Yu Qiuyue deliberately raised her head. In the face of true love, I don't care if you're a saint or not; this is your first time meeting me, and I have my pride.
"How could I not know from which direction the voice that pulled my soul back from hell came?"
Even though we are separated by thousands of miles, my heart can still see the one I love.
Green Pepper stood on his horse, gazing longingly at his beloved. Before, I had nothing, and could not express my love; now that I am a saint, I dare to tell you my heart.
I've been waiting to say some things for a long time, come on up!
Yu Qiuyue exchanged glances with him and simultaneously extended a hand toward Qingjiao.
Green Pepper took over and jumped up to sit behind Yu Qiuyue.
Then, Yu Qiuyue flicked her whip and rode off with Qingjiao towards the distant grassland.
Those at the scene were about to follow, but were stopped by the sheriff.
The sheriff said meaningfully to the camera, "Ladies and gentlemen, I think we've had enough time to track down the Holy King."
Next, it's time for the couple to have some personal time...
On the grassland, horses gallop along, facing the gentle breeze.
On horseback, two lovers clung tightly to each other.
This moment was a dream they had never spoken of to each other before, a dream they had waited so long to finally realize.
"Did you dress like this to match my outfit?"
"Qingjiao asked, while simultaneously tightening her grip on Yu Qiuyue's waist."
"You're overthinking it. It's for work, but it just happened to be a coincidence."
Yu Qiuyue showed him no respect whatsoever, and as she spoke, she pressed herself even closer to him as he embraced her.
Let's get married.
When love runs deep, you just want to be together. There are no more twists and turns. Green Pepper turned her face and pressed it against Yu Qiuyue's neck.
Some time ago, Yu Qiuyue told Yuebai and others that she would immediately agree as long as he said those words.
But she didn't agree now; instead, her eyes reddened as hot blood spilled from the corner of Green Pepper's mouth and flowed down her collar and onto her body.
As she untied the rope around her waist and tightly bound the green pepper to her back, she sobbed, "Are you stupid? Why did you have to come to see me step by step? How could you be so stupid?"
"I was born ordinary, and I love you in an ordinary way."
Green Pepper wanted to tell her that he was not willing to say he loved her because he had become the Holy King, but because he had the ability to protect her and dared to say he loved her.
As he spoke, he handed her a ring he had made from foxtail grass along the way.
"From this day forward, I am your wife."
Before she could wipe away her tears, Yu Qiuyue slipped the ring onto her ring finger...
