Chapter Fifty-six: The first time I saw the waves

"Are you the eight realms?"

Looking at the burly man in the seat in front of him, Liu Mengzhu smiled softly and sighed with joy.

The man laughed and sighed: "Yes, even the imperial doctor of the Mongolian royal family was helpless, but he was cured by the group of little guys who had not even reached the three realms!"

"Who would have thought?" After a smile, Liu Mengzhu took back the finger pressed on the man's wrist and pondered, "Although your internal injuries have been eradicated now, the damage to your body over the years has been greatly affected. You stay here first and I will help you take care of your body."

"Okay." The man nodded and agreed after hearing this.

Seeing that he was so straightforward, Liu Mengzhu showed a puzzled look and said curiously: "Since your injury has recovered, don't you plan to continue to fulfill your dream? You made all kinds of troubles back then, and even seriously injured by that person in the end, wasn't it just for yours..."

"Ahem!" The man suddenly coughed twice, interrupting Liu Mengzhu's words, and said with a smile, "I have already completed my dream, so I'm fine now, but... when my injury is cured, there are other things to do."

"Oh?" Frowning his eyebrows, Liu Mengzhu looked at him with some dissatisfaction, and said, "You actually entrust your dream to others. It's really... I can't help but make people angry! Is the other party so worthy of your trust? We are following you for so long, and after you have an accident, you insist on not letting us intervene, but now you have entrusted it to others..."

Seeing that he gradually became nagging, the man rubbed his eyebrows helplessly and suddenly said, "It's them."

"They? What are they?" Liu Mengzhu was stunned when she heard this. After a while, she reacted and said in surprise, "You... are you talking about them? Those little ghosts who have not even reached the three realms?"

"Yes, they are..." Speaking of this, the man looked at Liu Mengzhu with interest, " Speaking of not even reaching the three realms... Do you still remember what kind of cultivation we had when we first met?"

Liu Mengzhu was embarrassed when she heard this and quickly scratched his green length.

He smiled faintly, and the man's eyes suddenly became deeper, as if he had recalled something. After a long time, he sighed: "Mengzhu, everyone..."

Seeing him asking, Liu Mengzhu couldn't help but put away her smile and whispered, "Everyone is not very good."

"I was the one who hurt you," the man sighed, "If I hadn't been too persistent in the past, I wouldn't have caused everyone to leave their hometown..."

After rolling his eyes, Liu Mengzhu shouted, "I was not happy in the Song Dynasty, so I came out to experience the customs and customs outside Xiaguan. What's the matter with you, Tan Wenjun?"

Seeing that he was not in tune with his heart, the man couldn't help but laugh and laughed loudly.

That face full of rebelliousness was the one from Wulong thief... the boss!

*—*—*—*—*

After leaving the Chaotianmen of Chongqing Prefecture, we walked north along the Jialing River, turned east and west, turned left and right, and after a day and night, everyone finally arrived at the dock of Hezhou City.

Because they had already vented their feelings at Chaotianmen Wharf, everyone did not lose their composure this time. However, even so, the group of people from the Literature and Art Department still couldn't help but feel a surge of heart when they stood on the deck and looked at the surrounding scenery.

In any case, compared to the main city of Chongqing, Hezhou is the city they are truly familiar with. After all, their university is here. Apart from Chen Meng, Hou Jingru and Li Yilin, three freshmen who have been here for less than a year, Yang Renjie, Fu Feng, Jiang Siyu and Wu Xue, stayed here for two years, and Yao Ruoyu even lived here for four years, with a very deep relationship.

"Hey! You guys, what are you going to see! Come down and pay the city tax!"

Just when Yao Ruoyu and others were in a complicated mood, a scream suddenly came from the shore. Then they saw several men in black uniforms strode over and shouting at them from afar.

With a slight frown, Yao Ruoyu threw a wink at Yang Renjie and Fu Feng, signaling them to calm down, and then nodded to the man: "Okay." After that, he took the lead and walked down the board.

After everyone walked down, a burly man reached out and counted, and said in a deep voice: "Ten people, each of them had a 200-yuan quota fee."

With a slight frown, Yao Ruoyu turned around and looked at the people behind him, then said in confusion: "We only have eight of us."

"Two on the boat are counting!" After rolling his eyes, the man replied angrily.

Everyone was furious when they heard this, especially Yang Renjie, Fu Feng and Li Yilin, who almost pulled out their weapons.

They and their group were also rolling on the battlefield. At this moment, when everyone was angry, a momentum emerged. Suddenly, the man felt his body tremble, quickly took a step back, looked at them vigilantly, and said sternly: "What do you want to do? I'm from the Wildfire Society!"

"Wildfire will be? Isn't it a wildfire thief?" Seeing that he was so fierce and weak, Yao Ruoyu smiled contemptuously.

However, he was too lazy to get involved with the other party, so he reached out to Jiang Siyu, who gave him a blank look, but also took out two taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to him.

After taking the money and throwing it to the other party, Yao Ruoyu asked casually: "Where is the city?"

Perhaps feeling the difficulty of this group of people, the man restrained himself a little, reached out and replied, "Let's go there and you'll be there soon."

"Yeah." He nodded slightly, then Yao Ruoyu's eyes swept away the wildfire thieves, and immediately intimidated the group of people to scatter left and right, and gave way, letting the eight of them go away.

Following the direction pointed by the man, Yao Ruoyu and his team left the pier and walked all the way, and soon arrived at the center of Hezhou City.

When Yao Ruoyu saw the scenery in the center of the city, he frowned without realizing it. Although he could not compare to the prosperity of Chaotianmen Pier, the market here was also lively, at least not as desolate as the boatman said before.

While thinking, Yao Ruoyu suddenly heard a rumbling sound, and then saw the shops around the market packing up their things, then quickly closed the doors and windows, as if they were trying to avoid something.

Yao Ruoyu was stunned when he saw this, then glanced around and took everyone into a winery.

The winery was packing up and closing the doors and windows. Seeing them coming in, the boss quickly came up and said with a smile: "Sorry, we're closed, please go back."

After smiling, Yao Ruoyu took out a silver ingot from his waist and threw it over, and said with a smile: "We are just passing by, so we will go to the second floor for breakfast. Don't worry, it won't affect you."

After taking the silver ingot, the boss hesitated for a moment, finally gritted his teeth and nodded and said, "It's done, please come upstairs." After saying that, he immediately called the waiter to take them upstairs.

"Wow! Brother Yao, you actually hide your private money." Fu Feng said with a smile while walking on the stairs.

After rolling his eyes, Yao Ruoyu said angrily: "Is this my spoil, okay?"

In the battle of Fuling City, Yao Ruoyu and others received certain rewards for their contributions to killing the enemy. Because these were personal income, they were kept by themselves, unlike the money given by Chu Kuangge was all in Jiang Siyu.

Yao Ruoyu killed twenty assassins from the Mandala organization alone, so the reward was extremely generous, so he could only be so generous that he could just take a silver ingot.

When they walked upstairs, everyone found a table next to the street and sat down, called for some breakfast, and then looked out the window with great enthusiasm, looking forward to the movement below.

After a while, everyone saw a group of big men in black uniforms holding swords and other weapons, rushing from afar, and then rushed straight out of the city.

Seeing this scene, Yao Ruoyu called out to the waiter who had just brought a plate of dumplings and asked, "Waiter, what's going on next?"

The waiter glanced at it and smiled and said, "Wildfire thieves, oh no, the wildfire will go to the Diaoyu City."

"Just rely on these people?" Yao Ruoyu raised his eyebrows and laughed, "I heard that Diaoyu City is the residence of the city lord and some powerful people. Its defense should be good, right? Just relying on these thieves, I want to attack Diaoyu City?"

"Oh, you can't beat it, but you can surround it!" After a smile, the waiter replied, "Diaoyu City is surrounded by mountains. Once surrounded, the people inside will have to eat and store grain. However, the harvest has not been good in the past two years. The powerful and powerful have not much stored grain. When they can't hold on, they will have to surrender."

"Surrender?" Hou Jingru opened her mouth wide and said in surprise, "Isn't that rebellion?"

"Wildfire Thieves are not that stupid, they won't really occupy the Diaoyu City," probably because they saw that Yao Ruoyu and his group had special identities, so the waiter simply changed his name to "Wildfire Thieves" and smiled, "They can only blackmail some money, and then leave. After a while, they found a reason and then came to the siege and blackmail."

"Don't the Lord of Hezhou City asks for support?" Chen Meng couldn't help asking.

After smiling, Yao Ruoyu pondered: "I think he is also afraid that such a thing will affect his city lord's throne, so he deliberately concealed it. Anyway, the blackmailed money can be taken from the common people."

"Young Master is insightful!" He smiled and raised his thumbs up. The waiter sighed, "Every time the wildfire thieves go to blackmail, the city lord's mansion will come here to collect taxes, and he also famously says that it is used to raise soldiers and protect the city... If it weren't for Baihe Academy, we would have been hacked to death by those bandits, bah!"

Hearing this, Wu Xue's eyes rolled and she smiled and said, "Let's go and have a look at the fun?"

"Hey! Girl, don't go," the waiter hurriedly persuaded him, "Those wildfire thieves are all thugs who kill without blinking. There is Baihe Academy in this city, and they are still restrained, but once they leave the city, they will not care about it!"

But at this time, Yang Renjie, Fu Feng and others were also interested. These people were originally afraid of heaven and earth, or were too nervous. Especially after experiencing the battle of Fuling City, they did not put this group of local bandits in their eyes.

Seeing that everyone was full of interest, Yao Ruoyu smiled helplessly. Although he felt that it was a bit dangerous, he was indeed very interested in wildfire thieves attacking Diaoyu City, so he nodded in the end and agreed.

"Oye!" He raised his hand with a smile, and Wu Xuexi said, "Let's go quickly!"

"Well," said Yao Ruoyu to the waiter, "Leave us eight rooms, and the room money will be given from the previous ingots. If it is not enough, wait for us to come back before giving it."

"It's done!" Seeing that they insisted on following them to watch the fun, the waiter had no choice but to nod and agreed.

Under Wu Xue's urging, everyone ate all the breakfast like a wind and clouds, and then followed the group of wildfire thieves to chase out of Hezhou City.
