Chapter 106: Blocking the Road
Li Xiu disagreed and said, "At worst, we can just pay the money and it's nothing. To cultivators like us, worldly gold and silver are not important at all."
Han Yueshan suddenly realized that perhaps it was this kind of thinking that made the beggars here so wealthy.
Xi Jing's face was full of sincerity: "Please don't talk about us."
Tao Zi spoke again: "Even so, don't be too conspicuous."
The previous scene reappeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but complain: "It seems that your actions are quite eye-catching."
Han Yueshan said confidently, "The rich cultivators and the poor outsiders who have to fight with beggars for a place to sleep, if it were you, who would you suspect?"
Li Xiu was silent. It seemed to be the case?
Tao Zi smiled helplessly and said, "Don't be conspicuous. Just come quietly and leave quietly."
Several people nodded seriously.
They set off after a simple rest for one night. After discussion, they put away their spiritual weapons and other things, bought a carriage and traveled the mortal path.
First, they were afraid that the aircraft would be remembered, and second, they were afraid of being robbed. After all, they only had one capable fighter. The saying "don't show off your wealth" applies to both cultivators and mortals.
Of course, this was just the superficial reason. As for the real reason, just look at Xi Jing and the others' excited expressions. Even Li Xiu said, "Master said that you don't have to use spiritual tools when traveling. You can learn more by traveling around as a mortal doctor."
Tao Zi sat in the carriage that was about to fall apart and asked expressionlessly, "Aren't you anxious?"
"No rush. If Master disappears again, we can look for him again."
Suddenly, the carriage began to shake more violently. Tao Zi heard the screams outside and had no choice but to get up and go outside to drive the carriage.
The carriage immediately stabilized.
The two men were driven in to rest. Han Yueshan looked at them with a look of despair and said, "I'm lucky my wound didn't split open."
Xi Jing looked at him seriously: "The road is too steep."
"What now?"
Zhao Xue tried to make amends for himself and his junior sister: "Senior sister's driving skills are good."
Han Yueshan sighed sadly. With the looks on their faces, who could believe that they were immortal cultivators?
Li Xiu looked at them with interest and said, "It seems that your senior sister knows much more than you do."
Han Yueshan said carelessly: "Senior sister is a senior sister. Isn't it normal for her to know more than us?"
The other two looked at the scenery outside and nodded in agreement.
The carriage suddenly stopped. Just as they were wondering, a voice came from outside: "You need to pay to pass this road!"
Hearing this familiar voice, Li Xiu slowly turned his head and glanced at Han Yueshan. He nodded and confirmed, "It's from that beggar."
This is the first time in my life that I have been robbed by a beggar.
Tao Zi glanced at those people and calmly got into the carriage.
Before she could say anything, Xi Jing and Zhao Xue understood what she meant, rolled up their sleeves and went out.
Li Xiu looked at her doubtfully, and she said, "Not every fight has to come to me."
He suddenly realized what was going on and, listening to the noise outside, said, "I should have given some money to settle the matter earlier, so as to avoid all this trouble."
"Is it troublesome?" Han Yueshan said regretfully, "If you lift the curtain and look outside, you'll know how interesting this is. It's a pity that I can't do anything now."
Li Xiu still looked like she didn't care about money: "I just think it's not worth wasting time for money. Besides, there's no need to haggle over gold and silver with mortals."
For a moment, Han Yueshan didn't know whether he didn't care about money or didn't care about ordinary people.
Although they have different ideas inside, they are having a great time playing together outside. Finally, finally, finally there is a day when I can use them!
Xi Jing and the others didn't use any spiritual energy, they just relied on their physical strength to take care of those people.
Soon, those people knelt on the ground crying and explaining how miserable their lives were, as they had elderly mothers to take care of and young children to take care of.
Han Yueshan sighed and said quietly, "He can still marry a wife and have children, which is better than me."
The crying outside the carriage suddenly stopped.
Li Xiu was a little amused and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He stood up and walked out, looking at the "beggars" outside, and said with a smile: "Are you usually like this?"
The leader outside was still dazed: "What?"
"Stop outsiders and ask for money, then rob them if they don't give?"
He felt guilty for a moment, then said confidently, "You guys are not short of money, so it's okay to give me some, right?"
After hearing these righteous words, Li Xiu, who originally thought there was no problem, suddenly felt that there was a problem.
With this attitude, he is being taken advantage of!
Li Xiu rolled up his sleeves and attacked with his half-baked street skills.
This time, he had learned his lesson and confessed honestly: "Those cultivators who don't pay can just cry and wail in the town, most of them will pay; as for ordinary people, we will rob them."
Xi Jing asked curiously, "No one is taking care of you?"
"We also treat people differently based on their appearance. We avoid cultivators who look tough, cultivators who turn cold when they howl, and even ordinary people with guards around them. But this time, we made a mistake."
When the leader said these words, his expression was extremely puzzled. This group of people, some were lying down, some were weak, and it seemed that none of them could fight. How could he have made such a mistake?
Tao Zi got off the carriage at some point. She looked at the leader and asked, "Who's behind you?"
The leader stiffened and quickly responded, "Who's behind me?"
"No one can be so arrogant now? I don't believe this is the first time you've made a mistake."
The leader began to hesitate.
There's someone behind this, and if we don't find out, it could cause trouble. Furthermore, this person's attitude is wrong, so shouldn't we take advantage of the situation and bring out our backers?
Li Xiu's face turned cold, and she looked at Tao Zi inquiringly. She looked at those "beggars" and said with a smile: "If you don't speak for a quarter of an hour, I'll chop off one hand. If you don't speak for two quarters of an hour, I'll chop off another hand."
He remained silent. Who couldn't tell lies? He just didn't believe these young people could be so cruel. Didn't he see that the two people who started the fight were hesitant to speak?
But the young man who looked easygoing took out a long knife, lit some incense, and said, "One stick of incense, two quarters of an hour, and when it's halfway burned I'll chop off a hand."
Looking at Li Xiu's gentle expression, the leader broke out in sweat. It seemed that this guy was serious?
Han Yueshan listened nervously inside.
Li Xiu's gentle voice sounded: "You can think slowly, with your hands and feet. Half an hour is enough for you to think."
The senior sister also echoed: "Don't worry, we know how to heal injuries. Even if we lose our hands and feet, we can still live. Don't be afraid."
It was clearly spoken in a gentle tone, but it sounded even scarier?
The leader forced a smile and said, "Gentlemen, even if I have someone behind me, there's no need to do this, right? This time, I was wrong and accidentally offended you. How about we give you the money we have as an apology?"
