The eyes of the official and his subordinates lit up. Such a big gold coffin weighed at least a million taels!
"Gold is contraband. Now, I want to confiscate it!" the officer shouted.
Wu Bei stood up. He walked up to the official and put a hand on his shoulder. Terrible power poured into him. The official was trembling all over and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Can you see clearly that my things are really contraband?" he asked calmly.
The official knew very well that as long as he dared to say no, Wu Bei would kill him on the spot and bury him on the spot. None of the subordinates who came with him could escape!
Rolling his eyes, the official said: "It's not contraband, absolutely not!"
Wu Bei: "Don't think that because we are outsiders, we can bully them casually. There are some people you can't afford to offend. I can kill ten useless people like you, you know?"
The officer swallowed his saliva and said, "Yes, I understand."
Wu Bei let go of his hand and sat back down.
The officer waved his hand and quickly left with his subordinates.
Late at night, Wu Bei took out the blood stone. When he input his spiritual thoughts into the blood stone, the blood stone suddenly glowed red, and then the red light rushed out of the stone and penetrated into his chest.
A stream of blood energy entered the body, and finally penetrated into Wu Bei's blood. Vaguely, he felt that his blood was undergoing subtle changes.
In the early morning, Wu Bei was awakened by a burst of people. It turned out that the previous official came again. This time he brought a large number of people and surrounded the inn.
"The thieves inside must come out and surrender immediately, otherwise they will be killed without mercy!"
"Headguard Wu, it seems this group of people is done." One of the escorts said through gritted teeth.
Wu Bei: "I'll deal with it."
He opened the door and saw the official from yesterday hiding behind, and a more powerful official standing there with a sneer on his face.
Wu Bei walked out, and the officer behind him said: "Shangguan, this guy is the least of the threats. If I dare to investigate him, he will kill us!"
The official officer in front looked down and said: "Bold! This is the Wuying Empire, how can you be allowed to act wild! Come and capture this person for me!"
"boom!"
A shocking secret power erupted, and a big black hand appeared in the sky, covering almost half of the sky and covering the entire inn. Under the cover of the big hand, everyone turned pale.
The official's expression also changed, and he turned to the official behind him and shouted: "You bastard, how can there be any thieves here? It's obviously you who wants to steal someone else's golden coffin. You deserve to die!"
In order to save his life, the officer drew his sword and chopped off the officer behind him, and then said seriously: "My friend, everything was a misunderstanding. I was very offended just now."
Wu Bei put away his god-level secret power. Once this secret power casts a secret spell or technique, everyone present will die, and no one can leave alive.
"Since this is a misunderstanding, please leave as soon as possible." He said calmly.
The officers fled in panic. As soon as they left, Wu Bei said to the escorts: "Tell everyone to get up and eat, and then continue on their way."
Officials protect each other. Although he successfully dealt with this crisis, there is no guarantee that more officials will not cause trouble for him. It is better to leave here as soon as possible and hurry up.
Half an hour later, the escort team set off again. After walking for half a day out of the city, the sky in front suddenly turned dark, gloomy clouds pressed over, and the wind began to blow.
An experienced old bodyguard said: "Boss Wu, it's raining. We have to find a place to take shelter quickly."
Wu Bei looked far away and saw nothing.
There is a place to take shelter from the rain, but on the mountain on the left, a temple is revealed.
He said: "Let's go to the mountains to take shelter from the rain."
At that moment, he led his escort team up the mountain and arrived in front of an ancient temple. As soon as he arrived, there was a thunder in the sky and heavy rain poured down.
When I opened the door of the temple, it was empty inside, with no one living at all. After parking the escort carriage, the escorts led the horses to the corridor, and the rest of the people went to the main hall to take shelter from the rain.
There are more than a dozen large and small halls in this temple. They are in the main hall, which contains many tall statues of gods.
Wu Bei wiped his hair and looked at these statues. He didn't recognize most of the statues, but each one was built in a majestic way.
"Crack!"
There was another thunder, the rain became heavier, and a cold wind blew.
The bodyguard picked up some firewood from behind, lit a fire in the hall, and spread a blanket on the ground.
As soon as Wu Bei and his group sat down, they heard chaotic footsteps coming from outside. A man and a woman rushed into the temple, and then ran straight to the main hall.
Several bodyguards immediately took out their back blades and looked at the two men warily.
The man was in his early twenties and the woman was probably under 20. They were both soaked and looked a little panicked.
Seeing Wu Bei's group of escorts, the man quickly handed over his hands and said: "Brothers, we went up the mountain to take shelter from the rain, sorry for disturbing you." After saying that, they walked to the other side of the hall.
The old bodyguard whispered beside Wu Bei: "Headguard, this man has a lot of valuable things with him. He may have eloped with a girl from another family."
Wu Bei had heard the story of elopement many times. He became interested and asked: "How will the men and women who elope be punished here?"
Old escort: "Usually they are arrested, the men are beaten to death, and the women are locked up for a few years."
Wu Bei: "Why are the men beaten to death and the women only imprisoned for a few years?"
Old escort: "This kind of elopement usually involves a man with no money and power, taking a wealthy family's daughter with him. Of course, the man is beaten to death in the end."
Wu Bei sighed: "I can see that the man's hands are calloused, and he is a coolie. The woman's hands are soft, and she is probably a rich man."
Just as they were chatting, there were footsteps outside the temple again. A group of servants rushed into the temple. They searched around as soon as they entered, and several people walked towards the main hall.
The man and woman were so frightened that they turned pale and quickly hid behind the statue.
Wu Beichong winked at the bodyguards, and the two bodyguards immediately stopped at the door and said coldly: "There is someone here, no one is allowed in!"
These people didn't dare to break in, so they went back and talked to their leader. Not long after, the leader came over and clasped his fists: "Friends who are escorts inside, did you see a man and a woman coming here?"
The old escort saw that Wu Bei didn't want to sell the couple, and immediately said: "I saw them, they wanted to come in, but we drove them away and entered the back hall."
The man glanced at the palace, obviously wanting to come in and search, but he also knew that the people in the escort agency were not easy to deal with, so he finally left and went to other palaces to search.
After this round of searching, they found nothing, and finally arrived in front of the main hall. The leader said: "Friends who are escorts, we have been soaked in the rain for a long time, can we go in and have a rest?"
Old escort: "I'm sorry. Valuables are stored in the palace, and idlers are not allowed to enter. You should go to other palaces to take shelter from the rain."
The temple has more than one hall, and the leader couldn't find a good reason, so he gave up and took the people to another hall not far away.
At this moment, a red umbrella appeared outside the temple gate, gradually approaching. Under the red umbrella, a woman, dressed in red, walked slowly.
