Chapter 53: Still Needs to Pay
Yun Fu turned around and looked at him.
"Is that little bastard behind you the Fifth Prince? He wants Qi Hanzhou's life."
If that's the case, the two little bastards who appeared had different purposes. The fifth prince wanted Qi Hanzhou's life, and the third prince wanted the secret of Qi Hanzhou.
If I'm not mistaken, the big shot in Shengjing during the incident at Heisha Village should be the third prince Chu Jingyan.
Because he did not kill Qi Hanzhou immediately, but let the people of Heisha Village kidnap him.
In order to express his gratitude to Yun Fu for not killing him, the snake ghost broke the rules of the killers from the Shen Gui Gate.
"The Fifth Prince must have a deep hatred for Qi Hanzhou, so he took advantage of Qi Hanzhou's current status as an exiled prisoner to try to kill him."
They found the Shen Gui Men, paid a high price, and asked these hall master-level killers to take action personally.
But no one expected that there would be a variable like Yunfu.
The mountain ghost and he were abused one after another.
"When I return, I will try my best to persuade the Sect Master to reject this deal. But even if our Divine Ghost Sect doesn't accept it, there are other organizations in the Five Nations that are willing to take it. Your journey will definitely not be peaceful."
Yun Fu pursed her lips and smiled faintly when she heard this: "Oh, it's okay. I will make them regret taking this deal, just like how you feel now."
If someone else said such arrogant words, Snake Ghost would definitely not accept it, but when the woman in front of him said such words, Snake Ghost was convinced.
——
As soon as Yun Fu returned to the carriage, a group of people surrounded her.
They all asked in unison, "Princess, what's going on up ahead? Have you figured it out?"
"What's going on ahead? Is there any danger?"
"Is this road passable? Can we go any further?"
…
Yun Fu took a look and saw three little balls with big eyes, equally full of curiosity.
"It's nothing, just a few snakes. It's not a big deal, we can go through."
When everyone heard that it was just a few snakes, they realized that everything was fine.
Some brave ones even caught the snakes and made snake soup.
It wasn't until they followed Yun Fu's instructions and passed through the area holding snake-repelling torches that they realized there weren't just a few snakes, but a whole swarm!
"Where the hell are all these snakes coming from in this place?"
Yun Fu thought of the snake ghost and replied, "Maybe someone raised it."
"Who would keep so many snakes for no reason? This snake keeper must love eating snake soup!" Jiang Cheng and those yamen runners just complained a few times without thinking too much about it.
But Qi Hanzhou was sharp-minded and felt that things were not as simple as Yun Fu said, so he reminded her not to be too careless.
"These snakes couldn't have appeared here for no reason. Someone must have lured them here. There are people in the martial arts world who are proficient in snake taming. They can use a flute to control the snakes to attack people."
Yun Fu finally understood why Qi Hanzhou could become the God of War General of Da Sheng at such a young age. This man could be so alert even though he was blind.
"Well, there was a guy like this just now, and he said his name was Snake Ghost."
Qi Hanzhou's face suddenly darkened: "Snake ghost? Is he from the Ghost Sect again?"
"How do you know he is from the Shen Gui Men? Have you seen him before?" Yun Fu asked with some curiosity.
Qi Hanzhou had never seen the snake ghost, but he knew some information about the God and Ghost Gate.
"Those leaders of the Ghost Sect never use their real names when they travel around the world. The names they use all contain the word 'ghost'."
"So, what happened after you just encountered the snake ghost?"
Why is there only the snake now, but the snake driver is gone?
Yun Fu didn't want to hide it from him on purpose, but she was afraid that if she told him about the bloody process of "cutting off fingers", it would scare the three little kids, so she avoided some of the content.
Seeing that the three little kids were focused on the snakes, Yun Fu cleared her throat, tilted her head toward Qi Hanzhou, and said in a low voice, "After I cut off his flute and fingers, he couldn't control the snakes anymore. Feeling ashamed, he ran away with his head down. He left in such a hurry that he left these little darlings behind."
Qi Hanzhou: "..."
This woman can always describe thrilling events in a light-hearted and funny way.
Although Qi Hanzhou couldn't see it, he could imagine in his mind the scene of the snake ghost beaten by Yun Fu fleeing in panic, with its head in its hands.
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up into a doting smile that he himself didn't even notice: "Are you sure he's doing it out of shame? And not because he was scared away by you?"
Yun Fu said, "I just cut off his flute and three fingers, and took some compensation from him. It shouldn't scare him away, right?"
The doting expression on Qi Hanzhou's face became even more obvious.
I remembered the mountain ghost who was forced to hand over all his belongings.
The killer from the Shen Gui Men probably didn't expect that while completing a mission, he would not only almost lose his life, but also have to pay money.
"Oh? What compensation did you take from him?"
I don’t know when it started, but Qi Hanzhou really enjoyed this kind of relaxed and comfortable chatting mode between the two of them.
"Nothing much, just some bottles and jars, things like Snow Lotus Pills, Bone-Renewing Pills, and Great Rejuvenating Pills, as well as a stack of banknotes. He's also from the Ghost Sect, and it's obvious he earns more than the Mountain Ghost, and he carries more banknotes on him than the Mountain Ghost, too."
Qi Hanzhou: "..."
This little girl's focus is always so strange.
Snow Lotus Pill, Bone-Fixing Pill, Great Rejuvenation Pill...
Is this nothing?
I'm afraid that the snake ghost's family fortune has been drained out by this little girl!
Yun Fu recalled the last words the snake ghost said: "Oh, he also told me that the person who came to the Ghost Gate to buy your life was the fifth prince of Dasheng."
"Chu Qiyu?" Qi Hanzhou was slightly startled. "Is it him?"
Yun Fu learned from the original owner's memory that the biological mother of the fifth prince Chu Qiuyu was Concubine Yu, who had always been favored by the emperor. The dog emperor loved his son so much that he doted on him, even to the point of spoiling him.
Chu Qiuyu was raised to be a pervert who was licentious, cruel, and bloodthirsty.
I don’t know what kind of grudge Qi Hanzhou had with this pervert before.
"What's the grudge between you and him?"
Qi Hanzhou thought carefully and realized that the only thing that caused him and Chu Qiuyu to have a grudge against each other was the time he saved Song Lingyun.
"I have a stepsister, as you know."
Yun Fu hummed indifferently, "I know, Song Lingyun."
"Aren't you angry when I mention Song Lingyun?" Qi Hanzhou was worried that Yun Fu would get angry again if he mentioned Song Lingyun, because every time before, as long as he mentioned "Song Lingyun" in front of her, Yun Fu would lose her temper and hysterically question him whether he had any shameful relationship with Song Lingyun.
But Yun Fu was too calm at this moment, so calm that no waves or ups and downs could be heard in her voice.
"Why should I be angry? Did Song Lingyun and I have a feud before?" Yun Fu thought about it carefully, fearing that she had missed something. "It seems not."
