Er Gouzi clenched his fists unwillingly.
This person was right. As a taboo of the Fan family, Taiping Town would not let him in without the guarantee of Uncle Zhou, the patriarch of Zhoujiawu.
The people on the ferry saw Er Goudan's expression and smiled triumphantly.
"Er Gou Dan, I'm telling you, apologize to everyone now and show your sincerity."
"Yes, yes, since you are young, we won't make things difficult for you. Just..."
clatter!
The man hadn't finished his words when something sharp flew past his face and pierced into the mast behind him.
The man looked back and found that what was stuck in the mast was actually a complete fish bone.
Chu Mu stood in front of Er Gou Dan with his hands behind his back and said, "Don't you guys want to eat fish? Why don't you pick it up and eat it?"
Goatbeard was used to bullying others in the village, and had never been ridiculed like this before, so his face immediately turned black.
"No?" Chu Mu raised his eyebrows. "Forget it, Gou Dandan, let's go."
The young man lifted the oar nimbly, pushed and pulled, and the small wooden boat sprang out lightly.
All the Zhoujiawu villagers on the ferry stared fiercely at the three people on the wooden boat.
Chu Mu curled up the corner of his mouth, raised his fingers a few times, and picked up the long nails nailed on the human stake through the air.
The corpse that had been standing all night stiffly clenched its fist towards Chu Mu, then plunged into the water, went around to the back of the ferry, and lay on it motionless.
"Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. If you don't avenge a murder, you are a dog."
Chu Mu crossed his legs and deliberately stretched out his voice, half reciting and half singing.
The people in Zhoujiawu looked at each other in confusion.
"What is that kid mumbling about?"
"Who knows? Let's hurry up and get Master Fan to lock the city gates once we get to Taiping Town. Don't let them in..."
Zhoujiawu’s plan was very sound, but they missed one point, which was whether they could survive and enter the city.
Chu Mu's wooden boat was light and fast. When it was daybreak, they arrived at the dock of Taiping Town.
Although Taiping Town is just a town, it covers a large area. The dock alone extends for three miles.
A defensive wall was built in the town, which tightly surrounded the entire Taiping Town.
This layout reminded Chu Mu of the port city base in the doomsday plane.
Such a big town has only two gates, a main gate and a side gate. The dock where Chu Mu and his friends boarded is the location of the side gate.
There were quite a few people wanting to enter the town, and the queue made several long turns.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion at the front of the team, and the sound of someone crying and shouting could be vaguely heard.
Chu Mu and the others were too far away to see clearly.
"You two stay here, I'll go take a look."
After a night of ideological struggle, Pingniang has decided not to care about Chu Mu's previous inaction.
Especially last night she had a dream. In the dream, her man told her that she must follow Chu Mu, because that would be her only way to survive.
Pingniang has already seen Chu Mu's abilities. Since she has decided to follow him, she must do her part.
Pingniang couldn't do other things, but asking for directions and getting information was a task that was perfectly suited for her, as an unremarkable village woman.
Chu Mu's eyes, which seemed to be able to see through everything, scanned Ping Niang a few times:
"Okay, go ahead and be careful."
Pingniang breathed a sigh of relief, she knew that this powerful man truly recognized her.
Chu Mu and Er Goudan were still standing in their original positions, and soon, many people lined up behind them.
"Gou Dandan, how big is Taiping Town?" Chu Mu couldn't help but ask the young man beside him, "Can it fit so many people?"
"Brother, are you from out of town?" The first person to answer Chu Mu was the bucktoothed man standing in front of them.
He noticed Chu Mu early in the morning.
In addition to him, there were actually quite a few people who were secretly looking at Chu Mu.
The reason was simple: among this group of half-naked and dusty refugees, Chu Mu was too eye-catching.
Er Goudan wanted to deny it vigilantly, but was stopped by Chu Mu without leaving a trace.
"I'm from Dongjiang, and this is a servant I picked up on the road," Chu Mu said, revealing a bit of the arrogance typical of a young master from a wealthy family. "If I hadn't been separated from my family, I wouldn't have come to this godforsaken place."
The bucktoothed man rolled his eyes and said, "Dongjiang, that's a big place. Did you make an appointment to meet your family in Taiping Town?"
Chu Mu pouted and said unhappily, "My father has a huge warship, why would he need to dock in Taiping Town? My boat was damaged by a water ghost, so I had to come to town to buy a new boat and hire a few escorts."
Chu Mu pretended not to notice the people around him making eye contact and continued, "I heard there's a skilled boatman in town. I wonder if he's reliable."
The bucktoothed man said attentively, "Young Master, you've come to the right person. I know a reliable boatman. Their boat is guaranteed to be the most reliable in Taiping Town."
Chu Mubai's tender face was filled with joy at first, but then he asked doubtfully, "Seriously? Are you kidding me?"
"Hey, how could that be possible? Even if I had ten guts, I wouldn't dare to fool the young master, right?"
Bucktooth completely treated Chu Mu as a playboy.
"Sir, let me put it this way. I won't accept your deposit. After we get into the city, you can come with me to see the place and we can talk about it when you are satisfied. Is that okay?"
“No—wuwu—”
A thin man not far away had just shouted a word when he was dragged away by the strong men on both sides, covering his mouth.
This change happened quickly and subsided quickly. Chu Mu nodded as if he didn't notice it: "Okay, I will go with you to take a look."
Just as we finished talking, Pingniang came back.
