Chu Tianshu and Long Xiang rushed towards the other three people.
Chu Tianshu casually restrained one person, and the other two were simply killed.
Everyone except Kang Yaru was used to seeing blood. They gathered their horses and drank water and ate when it was time, as if nothing happened.
Chu Tianshu threw the merchant group guard he had just restrained to the side of the bonfire and asked in a deep voice: "Why did the guards at the city entrance arrest people from the merchant group?"
The merchant group guard snorted coldly and looked away.
Chu Tianshu said coldly: "Do you think I dare not kill you?"
The merchant group guard looked disdainful and asked, "Do you think I am someone who is afraid of death?"
"Not afraid of death?"
Chu Tianshu's tone was solemn, "Are you afraid that life would be worse than death?"
As he spoke, he directly raised his foot and stamped on the Jedi man's left knee, twisting it hard.
The Jedi man was very tough. Although his expression was distorted in pain, he remained silent.
"so smart?
Then I’ll give you something more enjoyable.”
Chu Tianshu curled up his lips, directly picked up a silver needle and pierced the Jedi man's head.
As the silver needle entered his body, the Jedi man suddenly felt numb and itchy, and then it seemed as if countless ants were crawling along his meridians inside his body.
This feeling is a hundred times more uncomfortable than simple pain.
The Jedi man couldn't help but scream and howl.
The look he looked at Chu Tianshu was full of fear.
Chu Tianshu pulled out the silver needle, and the Jedi man began to gasp for air.
Chu Tianshu asked jokingly: "Can we talk now?"
The Jedi man looked at Chu Tianshu in horror, shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Chu Tianshu rolled his eyes and stabbed the silver needle towards the Jedi man again.
"I have no idea."
The Jedi man yelled, "I really don't know."
Seeing that the Jedi man's expression didn't look like he was talking nonsense, Chu Tianshu didn't bother to talk nonsense to him anymore. He directly raised his hand and slapped a palm on the Jedi man's head.
The Jedi man's voice stopped suddenly, and he fell to the ground, annihilating his life.
Ren Changfeng stepped forward, groped around the Jedi man's body, and found all the coins on the Jedi man's body. He then dragged the Jedi man's body and threw it into the grass not far away.
Kang Yaru hurriedly turned her head away, not even daring to look in the direction of the grass.
After a few people finished eating and sat around the campfire, the topic naturally returned to: What should we do next?
After discussing for a long time, we couldn't come up with a solution. In the end, we had to unanimously decide to go to the city first.
Kang Yaru couldn't understand what Chu Tianshu and the others were saying, so she could only look at this and then that with her big eyes.
Chu Tianshu's eyes fell on Kang Yaru and said, "Miss Kang, what are your plans next?"
Kang Yaru's eyes dimmed, she shook her head and said, "I don't know either."
Chu Tianshu said: "How about we take you home first?"
Hearing these words, Kang Yaru jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on: "No... I won't go back..."
Long Xiang, Ren Changfeng, and Murong Po looked at Chu Tianshu in astonishment, with confused expressions on their faces.
Chu Tianshu explained helplessly: "I said I would send her home, but she reacted like this."
Kang Yaru knelt down directly in front of Chu Tianshu and begged: "Sir, didn't you say you wanted to go to Yunmeng City before?
Please, please take me to Yunmeng City, please?"
Chu Tianshu said speechlessly: "Then tell me how to get to Yunmeng City?"
Kang Yaru said: "There will definitely be a business group in the city going to Yunmeng City. Please help me advance my share of the money first. When we get to Yunmeng City, I will ask my brother to pay you ten times."
The corners of Chu Tianshu's lips curled up, but he said nothing.
He said he was going to Yunmeng City before, but he was just talking casually. His final destination was Weihu City.
Ren Changfeng couldn't help but ask: "Young Master Chu, what did this Jedi girl say?"
Chu Tianshu shrugged: "Please let us take her to Yunmeng City."
Ren Changfeng sneered: "Ask her if Yunmeng City can find a way to Weihu City. If she can find it, we will send her away."
Long Xiang glanced at Kang Yaru, a trace of compassion flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything. He could clearly distinguish the importance.
Chu Tianshu said calmly: "We will enter the city soon. If you are willing, we will send you home. If you are not willing, we will separate at the gate of the city. We have done our best to be benevolent."
Kang Yaru drooped her head with a weeping expression.
It was naturally impossible for Chu Tianshu to take unknown risks and send her to Yunmeng City just because she showed such a pitiful expression.
What's more, Ge Changqing's condition is still unclear.
At that moment, Chu Tianshu said nothing more and leaned against the tree trunk behind him, closing his eyes to rest.
Kang Yaru knelt for a long time, and saw that Chu Tianshu and others ignored her. She got up from the ground, walked to the side very lonely, sat down against a big tree, and stared at the bonfire in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.
After resting for a few hours, Chu Tianshu and others set off back to Hongye City.
Several people returned to the gate of Hongye City and saw a large group of beggar-like Jedi men and women surrounding the gate.
The Jedi men and women were dressed in rags and unkempt, like refugees.
Chu Tianshu said to Kang Yaru casually: "Why are there so many victims?"
Kang Yaru looked at the victims with pity and said, "They should all be people from outside the city who have been deprived of their fields."
Chu Tianshu asked: "What mistake did you make to be deprived of your land?"
Kang Yaru explained: "If you don't contribute according to the regulations, your land will be taken away."
She sighed: "The number of incense beads required by the city lord's palace to be handed over is getting larger and larger, and the tower protectors in various places will definitely have to ask the people under their command to contribute more willpower to complete the task.
Originally, when the Yang God came, the people should be allowed to concentrate on production. Now their production time has been greatly compressed. Many people do not have enough to eat, so they can only secretly reduce the time to contribute. In order to prevent this kind of thing, the City Lord's Palace
When something happened, an order was issued that anyone who failed to complete the task would have their fields confiscated."
Chu Tianshu knew that the arrival of the Yang God in Kang Yaru's words was the end of the day, while the end of the night was called the arrival of the Yin God.
Looking at the curious eyes of Long Xiang and others, Chu Tianshu briefly explained to them what Kang Yaru just said.
Long Xiang sighed: "This kind of rule by the Jedi is more likely to breed exploitation and oppression."
He reached into his arms, took out the coins he had collected from the merchant guards, and sprinkled them towards the refugees.
The refugees immediately surrounded Chu Tianshu and the others, grabbing coins on the ground.
The scene was like throwing bait into a goldfish pond.
Chu Tianshu said somewhat speechlessly: "Master Long, do you still want to go to the city?"
