Chapter 29 Heading to a mysterious place

A convoy of carriages came from outside the city.

With his blue top and gold tassels and carved bells, you can tell at a glance that he is a dignitary from other counties, and his background may be quite high.

Anyway, there are only a handful of people in Fengjiang City who can ride on such a carriage.

The coachman held the horse rope with indifferent eyes, and the entourage standing in front of him to open the way had an arrogant and condescending look on his face. He didn't even look at the child who was kicked away by him, and prepared to move on.

far away,

Xin Fan fell to the ground, and his arm was scratched and started to bleed. The pain made him shed tears, but even so, his face was still red from holding it in, and he didn't dare to make a sound.

The adults watching the excitement wanted to stand up and say a few words, but after seeing the other party's followers, they also gave up their arrogance.

Even if you go up and argue, I'm afraid you won't get any benefits, and you may also get beaten up. Looking back, just for the sake of being reasonable, it's really not worth it.

Besides, it's not too much to say that he just kicked me and left.

In the past years, those people from other counties and counties who passed through here were not arrogant, domineering and arrogant. They took advantage of the fact that they came from a big county and had protection, so they would bully others lightly.

There is no way, who made Fengjiang a place where there are parents but no father to raise them? No one has ever looked down upon them.

"Stop! Why do you hit people?"

Gu Sanyue suddenly stood in front of Xin Fan, glaring at the carriage in the distance.

Behind him, Xin Fan wiped his tears in grievance while secretly pulling on Gu Sanyue's clothes: "Gu Sanyue, don't, stop talking, I don't feel any pain anymore, let's go."

Gu Sanzhi had braids and his black face was full of anger: "No, you are my future deputy general, how can I still mess around if you are bullied like this?"

Ahead, the kicking follower looked back at the little girl with disdain, didn't bother to pay attention and left.

But at this moment, a stone flew over without any warning. The entourage didn't even react and hit the carriage directly.

The entourage looked shocked and was about to reprimand when the carriage behind him slowly stopped.

Two people walked out of the carriage.

A middle-aged man wearing a simple blue robe.

The other one is a young man dressed in luxurious brocade, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with wild eyes.

Both of them looked at the dark-faced girl. A trace of surprise flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes, and then he said something to the young master.

The young man raised his eyebrows when he heard this, then looked at Gu Sanyue with a playful expression, and said, "Girl, give me the slingshot in your hand, and pretend that what happened before didn't happen."

As soon as these words came out, the people around him breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, all he wanted was a slingshot, and it wasn't anything valuable, so he gave it to him and avoided a disaster.

However, Gu Sanyue frowned.

"no!"

The slingshot was lent to her by Xin Fan. Although she only lent it for one day, she knew that this thing was very important to Xin Fan.

At this time, Xin Fan's face turned pale, and he whispered with a cry: "March, give it to him. I think this person is not joking. If he..."

Gu Sanyue looked stubborn: "No, your father gave you this slingshot. Are you really willing to give it to it?"

Xin Fan cried even harder: "I'll give it to you. My father is gone anyway, so the slingshot is not as important as your life. I don't want it anymore..."

"Shut up!" Gu Sanyue said with a look of hatred.

opposite.

The young man looked at the conversation between the two with his head tilted, his eyes were like looking at something in a cage, teasing and sinister.

"Are you done discussing it? My patience is limited. Give me the slingshot and exchange your life. It's worth it."

"No!"

The young man narrowed his eyes slightly and showed a smile: "Okay."

As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man behind him took a step forward and walked towards Gu Sanyue expressionlessly.

But then it stopped again.

The middle-aged man in blue robe looked up and looked forward, then slowly said: "You want to mind other people's business?"

A sturdy man in rough clothes stood in the center, blocking Gu Sanyue and Xin Fan, and spoke with a naive look on his face.

"They are all children, adults please don't care."

The middle-aged man said calmly: "Young master said, a slingshot can change your life."

Li Tieniu didn't look back. He didn't know what happened. He just finished filling the big hole and was about to come over to sell some firewood, and happened to catch up with this scene.

However, he also recognized Xin Fan's slingshot. The boy held it as a treasure and didn't even give it to Gu Sanyue when he wanted it, which showed how much he cherished it.

He shook his head dully, a bit like the stubborn old scalper at home. His body did not move at all, and he only said two words: "No."

"..."

The middle-aged man looked surprised. He felt that Fengjiang City was a bit strange today. How come all the weird people appeared?

I have been here in the past years, and I have never seen many people who are so courageous and not afraid of death.

It would be fine if there was a god of mountains and rivers to protect him, but in such a poor place with no worshippers and no high-ranking officials, there is almost no one to rely on. This is not asking for death.

"Whether it's okay or not is up to you."

Li Tieniu just stared at him: "It's not okay to steal people's things. Aren't you afraid that the police will arrest you?"

The middle-aged man and several people behind him all laughed.

The person in front of me didn't have any state fluctuations, and he didn't look like a martial arts practitioner. He was just a country boy.

"Reporter? Your official in the border area? I heard that there are no arrests. Who will catch me? The county magistrate who has been in the limelight a few days ago?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone around him fell silent.

They are still aware of the situation in the Fengjiang County Government. It seems that it is really the case. The government officials and the policemen want nothing more than what they want.

Li Tieniu muttered. He looked at the man, his stubborn temper seemed to be a bit high.

I saw him turning around and striding towards the city gate, and then tore off the notice that had just been posted on it.

Everyone was stunned.

He stared at this stupid man in stunned silence, not knowing what to say about him.

Li Tieniu ignored the looks of people around him. He raised the notice in his hand and looked at the people opposite him.

"Now there is."

"..."

The middle-aged man in blue robe was a little surprised, his eyes changed, and he looked back at the young man.

"Sir, we have just arrived, and we have a long time to come."

The young man snorted coldly, then turned around and got on the carriage.

The man in blue robe turned around and looked at Li Tieniu and Gu Yuyue Xinfan behind him, smiling, but his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Then, he turned around and left.

…

…

Fengjiang County, in the north.

Chen Mu was walking on the street. It was his first time to visit the northern part of the city. The map in his mind began to gradually unfold and light up the streets everywhere.

Behind him, Cao Zhengxiang kept dozing off, wondering why the county magistrate was so crazy today.

He was woken up early in the morning before dawn and asked to write a temporary notice recruiting agents and post it at the city gate.

Then he followed me to the north of the city for no apparent reason without eating breakfast.

Seeing that they were walking further and further away, Cao Zhengxiang finally couldn't help but stepped forward to ask.

"Sir, what are you doing here this early in the morning? Could it be that you have fallen in love with some girl?"

"..." Shen Mu was speechless. He realized that he had really misjudged this bad old man. How could his mind be filled with these things all day long? Besides, you can't look for a young lady in broad daylight, isn't it all at night?

"No, I will just stroll around. If you are tired, you can find a place to rest for a while."

When Cao Zhengxiang heard this, he just smiled and stopped talking.

In recent times, he has noticed that the county magistrate is acting more and more unreasonably, and is more greedy than he thought. Thinking of Liu Changfeng who just left after losing his skin, he felt sad. ,It's too awful.

Chen Mu, who was walking in front, didn't know what Cao Zhengxiang was thinking.

He was looking at the map in his mind, walking along the illuminated streets towards the place with special marks.

It's the mysterious place that the system rewarded not long ago.
