Volume 1, Chapter 5: Feng He encountered robbers on the road and took action.
The muscles on Ye Tingmu's face trembled, his hands clenched into fists, and if you listened carefully, you could hear a cracking sound.
The other three people looked at Ye Tingmu with confusion on their faces. They wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, and their faces turned red from holding it in.
Qingfeng came back to his senses and asked excitedly, "How is it? Is it awesome?"
Ye Tingmu clenched his silver teeth, making a chattering sound.
This damn feeling of expectation, why can I have hope for him? Blame me for being too naive.
I silently said in my heart, "I'm not angry, I'm not angry, he is still young, don't bother with him."
Qingfeng saw that Ye Tingmu looked very unhappy, so he sat down tactfully.
He muttered softly, "I feel fine. What's wrong, big brother?"
Ye Jinghong tugged at the corner of his clothes.
"Shh~"
Guanqi stood up and took Ye Tingmu's hand with her little hand.
His fingertips danced and wrote three words on it.
"Don't be angry."
Ye Tingmu looked at her and touched her little head lovingly.
"Okay, I'll listen to you and won't be angry."
Upon hearing this, Guanqi narrowed her eyes into crescents, took out a piece of paper from the small flowered bag on her waist, and handed it to Ye Tingmu.
"You wrote the poem?"
Guanqi nodded obediently.
"Okay, then let me take a look."
After saying that, he opened the paper, and two lines of beautiful handwriting came into view.
"The setting sun sinks into the orange sea, and the evening breeze falls into the love of Akagi."
"Young man should wield a sword at the end of the world, and embrace the sea of stars in my heart."
Ye Tingmu finished reading, smiling, holding up the paper.
"Look, watching chess is poetry. You three should learn from this and worry me less."
A few people nodded in confusion, clapping lightly in their hands.
Ye Tingmu touched Guanqi's head and said with a smile: "My Guanqi is very smart. You will be the most talented woman in Jiuzhou in the future."
Guan Qi tilted his little head with a smile on his face.
"Okay, let's go."
After saying this, he stood up and left, still holding the poem about watching chess in his hand, his face intoxicated and lost.
"Great, great! Why can't I write that? I have talent, that's up to me."
Feng He carried Guanqi and Jinghong onto the back of the big black bull, picked up his luggage, and hurriedly caught up.
After having eaten and drunk his fill, Qingfeng changed from his previous decadent demeanor. He walked with big strides, his belly bulging, and a look of life on his face.
Humming a tune.
"You carry the bag, I lead the cow, we walk through thousands of mountains to earn money, I want to buy meat, and also have wine, this kind of life is wonderful."
Ye Tingmu was speechless after hearing this. The White Dragon Horse that he had just taught them had been modified by this kid again.
Nightfall.
The moon is bright in the sky.
The avenue under the moonlight was quiet and a little eerie.
A red candle flickered not far away.
"Brother, there seems to be a temple ahead." Feng He pointed ahead.
Ye Tingmu naturally saw it as well and said, "Let's rest there tonight."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingfeng quickly ran forward, pulling Dahei with him.
"Great, I can eat right away."
"Moo~"
"Slow down."
Soon they arrived in front of the temple.
The temple was in disrepair, with half of the surrounding walls collapsed. A plaque hung upside down on the rotten gate, and it looked like it had been abandoned for some time.
A few people stepped into the courtyard, where moss grew on the bluestone slabs.
There were lights flickering in the temple, and it seemed that someone had arrived before them and was camping there.
This land of northern barbarians is often visited by tourists and merchants, and there are also some people who are not afraid of death and go into the wilderness to look for rare and precious herbs.
Although ferocious beasts roamed the wilderness and a beast king reigned in the depths, natural treasures were also abundant. Legend had it that the ground was covered in gold and that if you found one plant, you would have enough food for a year.
But I am afraid that I may go alive but not come back. However, in troubled times, there are always some people who are not afraid of death.
Ye Tingmu didn't care and just pushed the door open and walked in.
The door creaked.
The bonfire flickered, and what came into view were three or five burly men, all of them with ferocious looks, who were now gathered around the bonfire, drinking wine in big gulps.
There was a girl tied up beside them. When the girl saw someone breaking in, she began to move her body and made a whimpering sound.
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
Ye Tingmu’s first reaction was that this group of people were kidnappers.
Kidnappers = desperadoes = dangerous.
Several big men were also stunned where they were, looking at Ye Tingmu in front of the door, thinking in their hearts that it was amazing that they could meet such an elegant scholar in this desolate and desolate place in the north.
rare.
Ye Tingmu came back to his senses and said with an awkward smile: "Everyone, I was just passing by. I know the rules. I didn't see anything. You guys drink slowly. I'll leave first."
As he said this, he stepped back, not forgetting to close the wooden door.
Are you kidding? I have a family to support and I don’t want to get into this kind of trouble.
When you are out, making money is the most important thing and doing things that are righteous is not an option.
It is better to have one less day than more.
"Brother, why don't you go in?"
Ye Tingmu patted his chest and said, "There are bad guys in there. Let's go to another place."
"Why not do them?"
Ye Tingmu rolled his eyes at Jinghong in annoyance. What a small child! All he does all day is work...
Feng He turned around without saying a word and followed Ye Tingmu.
At this time, the three or five strong men in the room also came to their senses.
"Boss, it looks like there are a few little kids."
The burly man in the lead grabbed his knife and stood up. "They've seen this little girl. We can't keep her here, or else it'll cause trouble. If anything goes wrong, it'll be hard to explain to the higher-ups."
A relatively kind-looking man said, "I think they are just a few children, so why not forget it?"
"You idiot! If the news gets out, we'll lose ten heads, not even ten of ours."
"Okay, listen to the boss."
As they spoke, several of them picked up their weapons and were about to walk out.
Ye Tingmu stopped and his ears moved up and down.
After breaking through the Kaiyuan realm, his hearing also improved. He could now distinguish the sounds of insects within a radius of 50 meters. The conversation between several people in the room naturally fell into his ears, and he couldn't help but frowned.
It seems like they are trying to silence the witnesses.
Feng He who was beside him also heard all this.
Feng He silently took off the bag on his back and put it heavily on the ground.
Ye Tingmu glanced at him, nodded, and warned him: "Don't kill anyone, your brothers and sisters are still here."
Ye Tingmu looked at the five people on the other side. Except for the leader who was in the Body Tempering Realm, the others had not yet entered the threshold of martial arts. They were just ordinary warriors. Feng He should have no problem dealing with them.
"good."
After saying that, Feng He turned around.
When he got to the door, he kicked it in the air.
With a bang~
With a murderous gust of wind, the temple door was kicked away in an instant.
The few people who were about to rush out were unable to dodge and were knocked to the ground by the flying wooden door.
“Ouch~”
Feng He walked in calmly, and then there was a noisy sound of fighting coming from inside.
Ping pong.
The sound of blades clashing and the dull thud of fists hitting flesh mixed together with the sound of impact.
From time to time, screams were heard.
Ye Tingmu covered his eyes and smacked his tongue.
"My condolences."
Qingfeng, Jinghong and the other two were all delighted, stretching their little heads to look inside.
His eyes were filled with excitement.
Three minutes passed.
Everything became quiet.
Feng He walked to the temple gate, clapped his hands, and said coolly: "Brother, it's done."
Ye Qingfeng gave a thumbs up.
"Second brother, you are so fierce."
Jinghong also jumped off the big black bull's back, holding a small wooden sword, and rushed inside aggressively.
"Second brother, I'll help you kill them."
Ye Tingmu hit her directly on the back of her head.
"Little girl, you're killing people every day."
Ye Jinghong held his little head and said aggrievedly: "Wuwuwu, big brother, it hurts."
