...Chapter 234: Arrest Warrant...
“You should know, there are a lot of purple maple leaves on Zi You mountain. Those people bought it because it was more convenient for them, and they could save time picking it. Huh, there's no point in telling you now. Forget it, forget it . . . . “
The old village chief continuously sighed.
Fang Yuan shook his head: “We just want to sell it to get more ancient stones, one to cover the cost, the other is to take care of our parents. Who would have thought after so much effort, it could not be sold . “
He sounded anxious, a little crying in his speech.
Hearing his words, the old village chief's heart softened, the grudge in his heart spread by more than half.
Fang Yuan said again, “Don't worry LORDVillage head, I have decided to follow the caravan tomorrow. By lowering the price, I believe we can sell it in the end. “
“Follow caravan? Who let you follow the caravan?” The old village chief stared with his eyes wide open.
Fang Yuan said in truth: “I saw many humans in the caravan. If they can follow, why can we?”
The old village chief leaned his head on his arm: “They are the family servants of LORDGu Masters! You think anyone can follow them? What if people with bad intentions mingle among them? “
“Ah?!” Fang Yuan's mouth was wide open, stunned on the spot: “Then how did it go? The caravan will leave tomorrow.”
“Sigh ..” The old man sighed deeply: “Nothing, I will help you to the end. Tomorrow I'll beg them to let you into the caravan, it all depends on your fate.”
The sun had just risen, and there were still a few stars visible in the light blue sky. Looking far away, the mountain of Zi You was shrouded in a deep purple color, peaceful and mysterious.
After an overnight break, the caravan had already started loading their belongings.
“Check the goods once again!”
“Follow the rope tightly, if anyone falls during the trip, we will punish you with a hundred strokes.”
“Quick, fast, fast, feed our black beetles to fullness.”
Gu Masters ordered and sent their family servants into a busy state. Some had bad temper, holding a whip in their hands, anyone who moved slowly would be whipped. Some like their Gu worms, and feed them personally.
“LORDChen. The old village chief bowed, saluting one of the vice leaders in the caravan.
“Oh, old Zhang, I'm busy here, just say what you want to say.” This Master Chen Gu said.
“It's like this. I have two juniors, doing small business ..” Before the old village chief finishes, Chen Gu Master suddenly shouted: “Chen Xin, why are you in a daze? Go and feed the winged serpents, do you think those servants can feed them properly? Your snake has swallowed three servants in recent days! “
“Ya clan elder.” Chen Xin was arrested, raised her head and said.
But Chen Gu Master did not let go, reprimanded again: “How many times have I said, call me a clan elder in the village, in the caravan, you should call me as the vice leader.”
“Yes yes LORDvice leader. “Chen Xin replied, run fast.
“ this ...” Chen Gu Master scolded slowly in anger, before turning to the old village chief: “What did you say earlier? Oho! You want me to guarantee your two juniors to enter the caravan?”
“LORD is really wise, that's the problem. The old village chief quickly replied.
“It ...” Chen Gu Master deliberately hummed.
The old village chief was changed to Gu Master by him, since this route required a caravan to pass through, he needed someone working for him.
For the traveling caravans, the villages were important, but the mortal hamlets along the way could not be ignored either, they were just as important.
Caravans have a lot of people and a lot of things to do, a lot of life resources will soon run out and need to be replenished along the way. There were also maids, when they faced danger, some servants died and the manpower became less. Caravans had to select a few humans in those hamlets to recruit.
By the way, among the servants of the Chen Gu Master family, the labor began to feel lacking, after all humans had cheap lives, it was only after all, they are just a kind of expendable resource that can talk and move.
“Furthermore, when I cross the mountain of Zi You, I still need to utilize old Zhang, if I do not grant his request, won't that discourage him? Although I am short on energy now, I disagree easily.I had to wait, and sell this favor at a good price. “
Chen Gu Master was still considering, when a Gu Master envoy from the caravan came running.
There was a stack of papers in his hand, while running and shouting: “All members note, there is a new arrest warrant, there is a new arrest warrant!”
He shouted while gluing a piece of paper on the body of the black fat beetle.
“New arrest warrant? From which clan? How much is the prize, get me.” Master Chen Gu was interested.
“Ya, vice leader.” The Gu Master's envoy quickly handed over a piece of paper.
Chen Gu Master saw: “Oh, arrest warrant from Bai clan. As long as the information was accurate, they would give away a thousand ancient stones? So much!”
Chen Gu Master's eyes shone, beginning to be interested in the matter.
There are two prices on the warrant, one price of information, the other price of murder.
The information that was valued was a thousand ancient stones, usually used for a wanted demon cultivator who had made a name for himself. But this poster only features two young people, with decent features, and one of them is even very pretty.
One male one female, these are two beginners.
“One is Gu Master rank one, the other is rank three. With the information of the price of a thousand ancient stones, and the killing price of five thousand eight thousand ancient stones. Pfft, it seems that the Bai clan hates these two demons to the core . Hehe... “Chen Gu Master laughed at their predicament, as long as it was not his Chen family.
What he did not know was, these two demons were nearby.
The old village chief saw the arrest warrant, and a chill came from within his heart.
“The world of Gu Master is really dangerous, a beautiful young boy, is actually a criminal demon cultivator! Let's hope they don't come to our village.”
“Alright, seeing how you have worked so hard for this many years old Zhang, I will approve your request.” Said Master Chen Gu.
“Thank you LORD! LORD, I will call them here now. “The head of the old village is very happy.
Against two humans, he was not interested. At the same time, he did not link them to the arrest warrant in his hands, after all this was the request of the Bai clan, and they were thousands of li. Chen Gu Master subconsciously felt that he was at a very safe distance.
This is a very common thought.
Even on modern Earth, when murder cases occur in cities, however cruel and heinous they may be, other cities do not feel much danger, even if transportation is very advanced.
In addition, they also have a fluke mind mentality.
In this vast world, where people live everywhere, how could these two demons come to my caravan? Then I will be very unlucky, that is impossible!
People always tend to think that unlucky events will not happen to themselves.
In addition, many people on arrest warrants are extremely violent and ruthless characters, which attract people's attention. Two newbies like Fang and Bai, one rank three and one rank one, how many were they?
Chen Xin looked at the two of them but did not think about the warrant at all.
Fang and Bai's image had changed completely, not only was Fang Yuan damaged, but after the days of training, he also started to become more natural.
Chen Xin immediately lost interest, especially Fang Yuan's appearance made her sick.
He was only rank one, while Fang Yuan rose to rank two a few days ago.
Chen Xin observed them carelessly, and did not sense Gu Master's aura, thus calling the old attendant and making him organize Fang and Bai's work.
“Who is your name?” The old officer asked.
Only now did someone ask her name.
“My name is Hei Tu, my wife is Bai Yun.” Fang Yuan said casually.
“Female?” The old officer frowned.
He looked at Bai Ning Bing and saw, seeing her dark skin appearance and her dazed appearance, she was called Bai Yun? Hey Tu this is also very ugly!
“Women are a problem, you have to be more careful. If anything happens, don't blame me for not reminding you!” The old officer said.
“I know, this wagon beside me is filled with purple maple leaves. My wife lives in the cart and takes care of the goods, I do not want much interaction with others.” Fang Yuan said.
“Hmph, good you understand.”
The old attendant arranged a physical task for the two, to move the items, but for Fang Yuan and Bai Ning Bing, it didn't matter at all, but Bai Ning Bing had to pretend and act like she was out of breath constantly, causing her mental exhaustion.
Not far from there, some family helpers were lazing around, resting in a corner.
Their gazes were directed at Fang and Bai.
“Brother Qiang, there are two newcomers. Some people saw them carrying their personal belongings! That's one cart full of purple maple leaves.” A skinny family servant said excitedly.
Depriving the newcomers, it was a ritual that the old people caravans often performed.
Brother Qiang crouched on the ground, squinting: “I saw him. Skinny monkey, try them.”
His body was strong like an ox, although his muscles were developing, he was not a rash person.
In a world where the Gu Master mastered everything, human strength was not a spectacular thing. Being able to become the most important person in this small circle, he had intelligence after all.
The skinny monkey sighed, under everyone's supervision, he approached Fang Yuan.
Others call me monkey brother, from now on we will cooperate, I hope we can cooperate peacefully. ”Thin monkey forced a smile.
Fang Yuan gave him a quick glance, only saying a word: “That's it.”
The skinny monkey eyes widened as he showed an angry expression.
Fang Yuan did not look at it, but continued to move his things. He has worked in caravans in his previous life, very clear of such “ritual”.
In simple words, the skinny monkey was testing the water, using words to test Fang Yuan's identity, if he did not have any support, they would cooperate and bully him, depriving him of some profits from it.
But in reality, not only were humans like this, Gu Masters were the same, they did it more elegantly.
Moving alone and risking their lives, that included fighting with ferocious beasts. Moving together in groups, it competes with their own kind.
In the most favorable places, there is conflict. There is only so much space, everyone wants to live better, and have more space for themselves, what can they do?
They could only attack the space of others.
The skinny monkey did not expect Fang Yuan to not give a face, so he was stunned at that spot, staring intently at Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan did not think of such a character. Humans are as cheap as grass, even if one or two people are killed, then why?
As long as the items were still delivered, the responsible Master Gu would not care.
Even if they did, Fang Yuan had a backup method to resolve the matter.
Overall, trying to provoke Fang Yuan, the servants of this family were nearing death.
“What, why don't you go, you want me to kick you out?” Fang Yuan looked coldly at the skinny monkey again.
The skinny monkey snorted, but did not explode in anger, instead leaving.
Such a powerful attitude, caused Brother Qiang to feel threatened: Do the two have some kind of background? Otherwise, how could they be so arrogant? I should check their background first.
(TL: Bai Yun means white cloud in Chinese, ironically)
