Looking at the young man in black clothes who appeared in front of him, the slovenly Taoist priest narrowed his eyes. When he entered the courtyard before, he did find three people there, but he didn't feel any special aura, so he regarded these three people as ordinary people.
But now that he saw the young man in black with a knife on his waist, the sloppy Taoist priest couldn't help but be a little wary.
He took back the foot he was about to step out and sneered, "Master Tao is in a good mood today, so he won't kill anyone."
The young man who was already lying on the ground vomiting blood raised his head and said with difficulty: "Let go of my sister!"
Chen Chao stood opposite and said calmly: "People stay."
The sloppy Taoist priest looked at the young man in black shirt in front of him strangely, and said with a smile: "You must have lost your mind and gone crazy, right?"
The young man also looked at Chen Chao and shouted: "Mr. Chen, it's none of your business, please leave quickly."
The young man didn't want this good man to be poisoned here, after all, this matter had nothing to do with him.
Chen Chao ignored the young man, just looked at the slovenly Taoist priest, and said with a smile: "If you are brave, then give it a try and see if you will stumble and capsize in the gutter?"
The sloppy Taoist priest's face was uncertain. After thinking for a moment, he finally let go of the girl. The girl ran to the boy's side crying and hugged her brother tightly.
The sloppy Taoist priest smiled and said: "I'm trying to sell you face, but I'm all a gangster. I'm bound to have difficulties in the future. Remember to remember my favor today."
Chen Chao was unmoved and just said: "As for the demon pearl, I have to take it out too."
Hearing this, the sloppy Taoist priest said angrily: "Are you really a Taoist who is easy to bully? Boy, you don't know how to advance or retreat."
"The things belong to him. If you use money to buy them, there's nothing wrong with it. But if you rob things, that's not okay."
Chen Chao looked at the sloppy Taoist priest in front of him. There was no special emotion in his eyes, and there was no murderous intention in his eyes.
"You're being too lenient, boy, are you really not afraid of your tongue flashing when you say big things?" The sloppy Taoist priest's eyes kept scanning up and down Chen Chao's body.
Chen Chao thought about it carefully and finally came to a conclusion, "It seems that as long as this kind of thing happens in the territory of Daliang Dynasty, I can control it. It doesn't mean that I have lenient control."
The sloppy Taoist priest sneered, "Do you really think you are the Emperor of Liang?"
Before he finished speaking, he felt a dark shadow flash before his eyes. The young man in black shirt in front of him was no longer where he was. When he saw him again, he had already come to him and pinched him with one hand.
neck.
"Is it a sea of misery? I almost don't understand."
Chen Chao pinched the neck of the sloppy Taoist priest in front of him, his face expressionless.
The sloppy Taoist priest's face turned red, but he had no strength to resist. At this moment, he only had one thought in his mind: it turned out that the young man in front of him was actually in the other side!
The other side of the world at such a young age?
In just a moment, the sloppy Taoist priest knew that he had hit a brick wall.
He looked at Chen Chao, his eyes full of begging for mercy.
Chen Chao had no expression on his face and just asked: "I want to save my life, do you have anything in exchange?"
The sloppy Taoist priest nodded hard, just begging the other party to let him say one more word.
Chen Chao let go and let the sloppy Taoist priest in front of him fall down, and then said: "For half a quarter of an hour, tell me something that interests me."
The sloppy Taoist priest hurriedly said: "Now there is a big business here!"
Chen Chao did not speak, but his eyes signaled the sloppy Taoist priest in front of him to continue speaking.
The sloppy Taoist priest took a deep breath, and then immediately said: "In the nearby mountains, there is a demon king recognized by hundreds of miles around. He has long since transformed, and his realm has reached the other side. Jianqi Mountain will soon open a furnace to cast a sword.
The new sword requires the demon king's demon beads and the horns on its head, and the price is high, so now many casual cultivators have gathered here just to compete for the demon horns on its head."
He explained all the key points of the matter in one breath, fearing that he would be killed by the young man in front of him a moment later.
"Since you are the Demon King of the Other Shore Realm, you are from the Bitter Sea Realm, why are you here to join in the fun?"
Chen Chao looked at the sloppy Taoist priest.
The sloppy Taoist priest said with a bitter face: "If the demon king was still intact, I wouldn't dare to trouble it even if I had 800 courage, but a few days ago it provoked a sword immortal, and it seemed that he was attacked by that swordsman.
Xian handed over a sword casually. Although he was lucky enough to save his life, he was seriously injured. Only then did the casual cultivators who got the news dared to come to trouble it. After a round of encirclement and suppression, it had been forced into the nearby mountains and forests.
.”
Chen Chao said oh, not doubting the authenticity of the news. When he was meditating before, he had already felt several auras entering the town one after another. The strength was not obvious, as if there were several in the sea of suffering.
At the peak, there is a breath that has already set foot on the other side.
The sloppy Taoist priest looked at Chen Chao and said: "Based on the strength of fellow Taoist, I think I can completely subdue the demon king, and then I can bring him to Jianqi Mountain. Not only can I get the reward from Jianqi Mountain, but I can even
If I can get favors from Jianqi Mountain, how about the favors from Jianqi Mountain? I guess I don’t need to say more about it, right?"
Chen Chao asked: "The price is clearly marked, where does the favor come from?"
The sloppy Taoist priest was startled.
Chen Chao didn't speak anymore, he was just thinking about something.
The sloppy Taoist priest asked tentatively: "Fellow Taoist, can this information save my life?"
Chen Chao looked down at him, shook his head and said with a smile, "No."
It's a matter of course.
…
…
The brother and sister who had witnessed Chen Chao's murder had no fear in their eyes at this moment. The girl broke away from her brother's arms, ran to Chen Chao and kowtowed to him to thank him.
Chen Chao helped the girl up and frowned: "I didn't lie to him what I said before. These things are all my responsibility."
The girl was startled and said in disbelief: "Are you an official?"
Chen Chao thought for a while and gave an ambiguous answer, "So."
The girl didn't know what to say at this moment.
Chen Chao found a money bag from the sloppy Taoist priest and threw it to the young man. Then he said: "These monks have many skills. I don't know what method they used. I know you have a demon bead here. Since he has a method, it is inevitable that you will not
You will meet someone with tricks again, so don’t carry the demon beads with you, otherwise you may all die from them one day.”
The young man did not hesitate, handed over the box in his hand, and said: "Thank you Mr. Chen for your life-saving grace. I will give the demon pearl to Mr. Chen as a token of my gratitude."
Chen Chao did not reach out to pick it up, but just shook his head again and said: "I told you, the demon bead is useless to me."
But after a while, he added: "I can keep it for you. If you can get to Shendu, and if I can return to Shendu this time, you can go to Zuowei Yamen to find me."
The young man handed over the box and wanted to give it to Chen Chao, but Chen Chao shook his head, "This thing is worth a lot of money to you, but to me, it's better than nothing. It's useless to give it to me. Keep it for yourself, and you can live a better life."
Much better."
Chen Chao thought for a while and then said: "Forget it, if I can't go back to Shendu in the future, you can go to the academy sometime. There is a small courtyard by the lake. There is a female gentleman in the courtyard. Tell her these things. She
It will be handled properly."
The young man took note of these words carefully and nodded again.
Chen Chao said: "Don't leave in a hurry. Stay in the town for a while. I'll join in the fun. When I come back, I'll take you to the county town. I'll be relieved to find a caravan back to Beijing.
.”
After hearing this, the young man's legs went weak and he was about to kneel down. Chen Chao shook his head and said softly: "It's just that if you encounter something, you should do everything you can. If you don't do it halfway, I'm afraid you will regret it again."
This sentence made the two of them confused.
Chen Chao didn't say much, he just turned around and went back to the house. He was going to take a nap in the middle of the night.
In the yard, the brother and sister looked at each other.
What happened before seemed to them like a dream, and they have not yet fully woken up.
Especially the young man. He originally thought that the young master was just an ordinary person.
The young man handed the money bag in his hand to his sister and sighed: "We really met a good person."
The girl nodded in agreement: "He is still a good man!"
The young man also nodded, and then pinched himself for no reason. He groaned and it hurt, and he was a little confused. He had met so many people in the past few years, but he had never met such a good person.
The girl suddenly slapped her forehead and said belatedly: "Brother, we haven't asked our benefactor's name yet."
The young man obviously understood a lot more, shook his head and said, "If my benefactor wanted to say it, he would have said it long ago. If he didn't want to say it, it would be in vain for us to ask."
The girl looked at the room over there, feeling a little disappointed and said, "But how can we remember our benefactor in the future?"
The young man rubbed his sister and said with a smile: "Silly sister, if you remember today, you will always remember it. If you forget today, even if you remember the name of your benefactor, it will be useless. You will be an ungrateful little white-eyed wolf.
!”
The girl made a sound and whispered: "I don't know if my benefactor has a wife."
The young man was startled and then asked: "What are you thinking about?"
"My mother told me a story before. When you meet a benefactor, you should give him anything you want."
The girl had a natural look on her face.
The young man was a little flustered, but he still managed to calm down and said: "Come on, my benefactor is very capable at first glance, how could he like such an ugly girl like you?"
The girl looked dissatisfied, "Brother, I'm not ugly!"
The young man said oh, a little lost in thought.
At this moment, he felt that it would be good if his benefactor could be his brother-in-law.
It's just that he understands much better than his sister after all. The woman that such a benefactor wants to marry is definitely not an ordinary person. As for his sister, no matter how beautiful she is, she will probably be destined to be a concubine.
As a concubine, you will be bullied by the real wife. Even if you are a benefactor's concubine, the young man feels that it is not acceptable.
My sister cannot be bullied.
No one can!
But if the benefactor takes the initiative to bring it up, what will his sister be willing to do?
What to do then?
Thinking about this, the young man suddenly felt so damn melancholy.
