Chapter 8 While Qin Ren was tying people up, Liu Qing…
While Qin Ren was tying people up, Liu Qingyue's mood improved. He rested for a bit and then got up to help Qin Ren tie people up.
Once both of them were tied up, Liu Qingyue started crying and complaining to Qin Ren.
“After I left the temple, I wanted to walk along the area with houses. I thought that way, even if I encountered danger, I could open the door and escape. But... but I didn't expect that there would be people in the area with houses, and they were all men. Then I found that even if I opened the door and created a passage, as long as they were fast enough and there were enough of them, I still couldn't get in smoothly.”
Because he was grabbed by someone the moment he opened it.
It's not that he's stupid.
He had already managed to get rid of one person before opening the door.
Unexpectedly, the man had a companion hiding behind him.
He didn't even see him, so he was unlucky enough to be caught by the other party.
In addition, they were men, and he was a young man, so there was a big difference in their physical strength. Also, there were two of them, so he was really no match for them.
Qin Ren: "Did they see the passage?"
Liu Qingyue: "No, because I was grabbed by someone before I even opened the door."
They grabbed him and tried to drag him away, completely unaware of the door.
Qin Ren nodded upon hearing this, relieved that no one had noticed the door.
They are now in an ordinary courtyard.
The door that opens the passageway is the gate to this small courtyard.
After listening to the thief's words, Qin Ren inspected the house and, after confirming that there was no one else inside, returned to the thief's side.
He took off his backpack, intending to treat the thief's wounds first.
Liu Qingyue looked at the pile of things he took out and was a little confused about what he was going to do.
It wasn't until Qin Ren asked him to extend his hand that he realized Qin Ren was going to bandage his wound.
Qin Ren: "It hurts a little, just bear with it."
As Qin Ren spoke, he began to disinfect him with iodine.
The thief's injuries were not serious; he only had some scratches on his face and hands.
The thief's face was probably injured by those two men.
Two handprints were clearly visible on her fair cheeks.
There was blood at the corner of his mouth, which must have been from accidentally biting his mouth while he was being beaten.
There was also a very small scratch on his eyebrow.
Besides the injuries on his face, the thief also had some scratches on his arms and wrists, probably left by the two people dragging him.
Such a beautiful young woman, and those two were willing to be so cruel. It really shows how easily human nature is exposed in chaotic times.
After disinfecting the wounds, Qin Ren took out two large bandages and wrapped them around the thief's wounds.
These large bandages are square and have a large surface area; they are specifically designed for bandaging larger wounds.
Because the weather is cold now, the wound is less likely to get infected, and the wound is also relatively small, Qin Ren did not give him any medicine.
Every medicine has its side effects, and since the thief is from ancient times, it's best not to take any medicine indiscriminately.
It was at this moment that Qin Ren realized the weather on both sides was similar, as if it was just the beginning of winter.
From this perspective, the flow of time is the same on both sides.
Qin Ren: "Alright, don't get the wound wet for the next couple of days, it will heal on its own soon."
Upon hearing this, Liu Qingyue wiped away her tears. Seeing Qin Ren begin packing his things, she quickly asked, "You, how did you end up here?"
Qin Ren left so decisively this morning that he thought Qin Ren didn't want to have anything to do with him.
Qin Ren: "I'm here to do business."
Liu Qingyue: "Doing business?"
Those who do business are all merchants. The social hierarchy is scholar, farmer, artisan, and merchant. Merchants in Da Yong are considered to be of low social status.
"By the way, thank you for saving me this time."
As Liu Qingyue said this, she quickly stood up and wanted to thank Qin Ren.
Seeing this, Qin Ren said, "Thank you is nothing. I'm a practical person. If you really want to thank me, just give me another gold bean."
If the thief takes the gold coins, he won't have to keep thanking the thief for this small favor, and their relationship can be simpler.
Upon hearing this, Liu Qingyue took out a gold bean, but instead of giving it to him immediately, she frowned and looked at him, asking, "What kind of business are you doing here? Are you... short of money?"
Although he still didn't understand what time travel or the concept of time and space were.
However, one thing he was certain of was that Qin Ren's side was much more stable than his side.
Qin Ren said he came here to do business. With the place in such chaos and constant fighting, Qin Ren must be short of money.
Thinking about this, Liu Qingyue suddenly had a bold idea.
With his face red from crying, he approached Qin Ren.
The two men are quite different in height; Qin Ren is 1.9 meters tall, which is considered tall even among men.
Liu Qingyue is about 1.7 meters tall. When the two of them stand face to face, Liu Qingyue has to look up at Qin Ren.
Liu Qingyue tilted her head slightly, revealing her red, tear-stained eyes.
Are you short of money?
"Yes, I need money."
"Then, could you take me to my family? If you can get me to their side, they will definitely give you lots and lots of gold."
A hint of a smile appeared in Qin Ren's eyes. He had guessed what the thief was up to when the thief asked him if he needed money.
Qin Ren thought of the thief's pitiful state earlier, and to be honest, he did feel a little sorry for him. However, he didn't want to waste his time, so he waited patiently for the thief to continue.
"You said they could give me a lot of gold, but what if we can't find them? Wouldn't I have made a bad deal?"
“I… I still have some gold on me, and I can give it all to you.”
As Liu Qingyue said this, she turned her back and began to search for the gold on her body.
He searched for a long time before turning around to face Qin Ren.
"I... I still have four gold beans and a pair of gold earrings. Do you think that's enough?"
Qin Ren had a golden bean in his hand. Although it was called a bean, it was actually quite large, weighing nearly twenty grams.
According to the gold price in Qin Ren's world, twenty grams of gold would cost nearly 20,000 yuan.
The gold the thief gave him wasn't pure enough, but it should still sell for around 15,000.
The four gold coins in the thief's hand could be sold for about 60,000 yuan.
Those gold earrings weighed about ten grams each, and should be worth around ten thousand yuan.
If you give him all of these, it would be about 70,000 yuan.
Since he came here to make money, he'll definitely be coming here often in the future. Why not use the cheat code of the time-travel portal to find the thief and lead him to his family?
Qin Ren came up with a good idea. He wanted to keep the thief inside the passageway so that he wouldn't have to worry about the thief being watched, while Qin Ren could also lead him forward quickly.
If Qin Ren travels with the petty thief, the petty thief, who is slow, physically weak, and beautiful, is more likely to cause trouble for Qin Ren.
However, if the thief stayed in the passage, Qin Ren could travel alone while selling things.
This way, he can not only help the petty thief find his family, but also earn a lot of money on the road.
With that in mind, Qin Ren took the gold from the thief's hand.
"I can help you find your lost family, but you have to follow my instructions afterward."
Unexpectedly, Qin Ren agreed so easily, and Liu Qingyue couldn't help but smile happily upon hearing this.
He is handsome, with exquisite features, and even though he looks pitiful now, he is still very charming when he smiles.
"Okay, I'll be good, and I promise I won't cause you any trouble."
"Alright, now enter the passage. You can stay inside the passage or go to my basement, but you can't go to my yard."
Liu Qingyue was a little confused when he heard this. He asked, "Why? Why do you want me to go to the passage, and... why don't you let me go to the courtyard?"
"There are no so many whys, you just need to be a good boy and listen to me."
As Qin Ren said this, he gestured for Liu Qingyue to leave through the passage.
It was at this moment that one of the two people who had been electrocuted suddenly woke up.
The person who woke up was a guy with a beard, thick eyebrows, and a mole on his face.
He screamed as soon as he woke up, which startled Liu Qingyue so much that she trembled and hid behind Qin Ren in fear.
Qin Ren walked towards the other person and then kicked him hard in the face.
Qin Ren said, "Shut up if you don't want to die!"
The man paused for a moment upon hearing this, seemingly not understanding Qin Ren's words.
The man started babbling incoherently, his words somewhat similar to those of the thief.
Strangely, Qin Ren could understand the thief's words, but he couldn't understand Qin Ren's words.
Well, it seems their bronze keys only allow them to understand each other's meaning.
Looking at it now, it's clear that Qin Ren really can't do without the thief by his side, because he doesn't speak the language of this world, and learning a language isn't something that can be done overnight. If he wants to do business with the people here, he'll probably need the thief to help translate.
Qin Ren looked at Liu Qingyue and asked, "What did he say?"
Liu Qingyue poked her head out from behind him, looking at Qin Ren with some confusion, and said, "You, you can't understand what he's saying?"
"Hmm, I don't understand."
"He...he said...you're a different race, why are you ruining their plans?"
Qin Ren: "Alien race? Hmph, tell him to shut his mouth, or I'll cut his tongue out."
Seemingly not expecting Qin Ren to be so cruel, Liu Qingyue was frightened by his words.
Seeing the look of terror on his face, Qin Ren said with a hint of mockery, "If I hadn't come and saved you, you might not even know if you're alive or dead right now. Do you think I'm being too harsh on them?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Qingyue immediately shook her head, "No, that's not excessive, they all deserve to die!"
As he spoke, he repeated Qin Ren's words to them.
He's handsome, and even when he's being fierce, his tone is sweet and gentle.
Instead of being afraid of what he said, the man said even more hurtful things to him.
Upon hearing this, Liu Qingyue's face turned pale. As if remembering something, she suddenly pulled out his stun gun.
He turned on the stun gun and shoved it hard into the other person's face.
The stun gun had metal plates on it, which were extremely sharp and pointed. When they were stabbed in the face, they immediately cut several bloody gashes.
Liu Qingyue was terrified when he saw blood, but he also knew he couldn't continue to be so weak.
This time Qin Ren came to save him, but after he and Qin Ren are separated, who will he beg to save him?
