Chapter 28: Shouting, what a good life!
"Master Jiang, the Cui family is so rich. If we save Cui Lin, wouldn't the reward be quite high?"
Yun Fu narrowed her eyes, looking greedy for money.
Jiang Cheng's forehead began to sweat, and his voice was trembling: "You can't be..."
Yun Fu didn't wait for him to finish shivering before she smiled and said, "Master Jiang understands me. Yes, that's right, it's just as you guessed."
Jiang Cheng: "No, I didn't think about anything, and you mustn't think about it either!"
Yun Fu raised her hand and patted his shoulder, asking him to calm down. "Master Jiang, you can think about it. All of you brothers can think about it too. Take the money and go back to buy a big house and marry a beautiful bride. Wouldn't that be great?"
Jiang Cheng has almost sweated out all the sweat in his life in these few days. If this continues, even if he doesn't have a heart disease, he will be scared into having one by this evil spirit.
A big house and a beautiful bride are great, but they also have to be alive to enjoy them!
"Princess! Ancestor! Those are pirates! There are tens of thousands of them. The Lord of Black City and the Cui family can't do anything about them. If we, the few lousy escorts, go there, we'll be courting death!"
"No one asked you to suppress the bandits. You just need to cooperate with me and go to the City Lord's Mansion."
Yun Fu briefly explained her plan.
It was not convenient for her to act as an exile, so she needed to do it as a yamen runner.
This new identity requires the cooperation of Jiang Cheng and several other yamen runners.
"When the time comes, after we get the bounty, you guys will definitely be included."
"A woman dressed as a man? With your face and voice, I'm afraid you won't be able to get away with it!"
Not to mention the Lord of Black City, even with their eyes, they could tell that she was a woman, and a stunning beauty at that.
Yun Fu naturally thought of his question: "I know a little bit of ventriloquism, I can change my voice. As for the face, that's easy too, I just need to paint it a little darker."
In the escape game, Yun Fu has dressed as a woman many times.
So, she is familiar with this job.
Yun Fu separated from them, found an opportunity, entered a space, took out a hidden voice changer, and applied special potions on her body to darken her skin by several degrees. Finally, she darkened and thickened her eyebrows.
A handsome young man appeared in front of everyone.
"How is it? I look okay now, right?" Yun Fu opened her mouth and the male voice shocked Jiang Cheng and the yamen runners.
I just exclaimed, what a great life!
Yun Fu thought: Of course, what she uses are all high-tech and powerful techniques!
The group did not delay and went straight to the City Lord's Mansion.
Seeing that they were people in official uniforms, the guards of the City Lord's Mansion could not openly drive them away, so they could only make up an excuse that the City Lord was very busy and had no time to see them.
Yun Fu took a few steps forward, lowered her voice, and said a few words.
The guard's attitude changed 180 degrees, and he bowed and welcomed them in.
Jiang Cheng asked curiously, "What did you say to him?"
Yun Fu raised her lip. "Nothing much. Just saying, we come from a famous sect in the martial arts world. You are the descendant of the Sword God, and they are the direct descendants of the Boxing King and the Kick King. We passed by here and heard that Cui Lin was in trouble, so we are willing to help."
Jiang Cheng: “…”
How can anyone believe this?
No, the little guard who had never experienced the dangers of the martial world probably didn't expect that this evil spirit would be so bold to make up such a story.
——
The hall of the City Lord's Mansion.
The Lord of Black City, Lei Ying, was gathering a group of people to discuss how to rescue people.
"I've been holding it in for so long, but who of you can actually fart? It's all just bullshit! If anything happens to my nephew, I'll feed you all to the fish and shrimp in the Heisha River."
The appearance of Yun Fu and others broke the awkward situation.
"Are you from the martial arts world? Which sect or school do you come from? Why is the descendant of the God of Sword escorting exiled prisoners?" Lei Ying is as his name suggests, with a temper as violent as thunder and eyes as sharp as an eagle. He stared at Yun Fu and the others.
When these questions were asked, it was obvious that they were being treated as a group of scammers.
Jiang Cheng and those young yamen runners felt guilty being stared at, so they could only lower their heads and pretend to be dumb, letting the evil spirit handle the situation. It was because the evil spirit could have made up anything else but chose to make up this unreliable lie.
Yun Fu raised her chin calmly, meeting Lei Ying's fierce and furious eyes. She pursed her lips and said, "Oh, that was a lie I made up to trick the guards at the gate. After all, if I didn't say that, I probably wouldn't even be able to see the City Lord, and then there would be no way to discuss future cooperation."
Her actions left not only Jiang Cheng and the others but even Lei Ying a little confused for a moment.
This seems to be different from the scammers I have encountered before.
"What kind of cooperation do you want to discuss with me?" Lei Ying looked across at the overly delicate-looking young man. "Kid, how old are you this year? Are you fifteen? Your hair hasn't even grown out yet. Who gave you the courage to say this to me?"
Yun Fu's face was already young, and her figure was much smaller than that of an average man, making her look even younger.
He looks like a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old.
"It doesn't matter how old I am. What matters is that I can help you save the third son of the Cui family."
Facing the powerful pressure from Lei Ying, Yun Fu was not panicked at all. Seeing that the chair next to Lei Ying was empty, she sat down and poured herself a cup of tea.
"Boy, what are you doing?" Lei Ying's eyebrows twitched.
"Oh, I'm a little thirsty after walking all this way. Pour me a glass of water. The City Lord wouldn't be so stingy, would he?" After drinking a cup of tea, Yun Fu glanced at the jaw-dropping faces of the crowd and said calmly, "I will help you rescue Cui San. You must cooperate with me throughout the process and only obey my instructions."
Lei Ying had never seen a kid who spoke so arrogantly in front of him since he was a child.
The boy's confidence piqued his interest.
"Boy, why should I believe that you have the ability to save people?"
"Do you have any other options now?"
Lei Ying was speechless after her bet. He gathered so many people and discussed it for several days, but he couldn't come up with anything.
But this kid is too young. Can he really save people?
Just when Lei Ying was hesitating whether to drive the person away.
Suddenly, a guard rushed in from outside, holding a long lacquer box in his hands. He knelt tremblingly on the ground and said, "City Lord, a little beggar just left this box at the door of the City Lord's Mansion."
"Isn't it just a box? Why are you shaking it?" Lei Ying didn't think much about it.
Yun Fu said quietly, "It's not the box that scares him, but the things inside it."
Hearing this, everyone's attention was focused on the box.
Lei Ying also immediately ordered someone to open the box.
The guard lifted the lid of the box with trembling arms, and saw a severed hand lying inside the box.
