Gu Wan just cared about Gu Chengyu and didn't notice the body on the ground.
When I heard the sound, I looked to the side and smelled such a strong smell of blood that I spat it out with a "wow" sound.
Sun Xian hurriedly helped Gu Wan get into the carriage, but even he felt disgusted when he saw it.
Some corpses had their bellies cut open with swords, and their intestines spilled out.
There were bloodstains everywhere on the ground. No wonder Gu Wan felt sick and scared after seeing it.
Second Sister Ye and Mother Ye didn't recover until now. They were really frightened. Seeing that Gu Chengyu was not injured, Ye Zhiqiu was also busy comforting them.
"Mr. Gu! Please take a moment to speak." Mr. Han approached the carriage and looked at Gu Chengyu flatteringly.
As soon as Gu Chengyu looked at Mr. Han, he knew what his purpose was. He would not agree anyway, and he did not want to put Gu Wan and the others in danger again.
"Mr. Han, you might as well say it directly if you have something to say. There are no outsiders here."
Mr. Han noticed Gu Chengyu's displeasure and felt that Gu Chengyu might not agree to his request.
"It seems that Mr. Gu is a cheerful person, so I will speak frankly. Mr. Gu also saw it. This batch of my goods is very valuable. I don't know who leaked the news. Many people are interested in them. I'm thinking
Please escort us to the capital. Of course, the reward will certainly not be small. I wonder what your wishes are?"
Regardless of whether Gu Chengyu agrees or not, he will not give up this opportunity.
Gu Chengyu shook his head. It's not like he didn't have any money, and he wasn't greedy for that little money.
"Master Han, I'm really sorry. If there were only three of us, master and servant, Master Han's request would be considered. However, you also know that I have many family members and friends with me, so I'm afraid it will be inconvenient."
Gu Chengyu bowed his hand to Mr. Han and expressed his apology.
Mr. Han was particularly unwilling to give up. He thought for a while and then said: "Young Master Gu is a scholar, right? We smart people don't talk secretly. Naturally, we study for the sake of being a high official and getting a good salary. My master is quite capable. If Mr. Gu can help escort him,
Then I must give Mr. Gu a few kind words and gain a backer, which is better than the young man fighting alone."
Gu Chengyu was a little dumbfounded. He didn't expect that Mr. Han would reveal his own background in order to ask him to escort him.
If he can say this, it can be considered sincere.
Then the owner of these boxes is the master behind Mr. Han. He is so loud. Could it be that that person is a member of the court? And his official position is not small?
Mr. Han could only speak for this reason. He could not reveal the whole story to Gu Chengyu. He also saw that Gu Chengyu was good at martial arts. If he was willing to sacrifice his life for his master, he might even become his right-hand man.
Gu Chengyu still refused. Who knows what faction Mr. Han is from? How could he rashly enter the other side's camp? Before entering the court, it would be better for him not to come into contact with the faction.
"Mr. Han, I'm just a weak scholar, not that capable. I just want to take the imperial examination in peace. As for the backer you mentioned, I know how much I weigh. Thank you for your kindness."
After Gu Chengyu finished speaking, he ignored Mr. Han and asked Ye Zhiqiu and the others to get back to his carriage. He was preparing to get his carriage away from the escort's convoy.
Fatty Han's face darkened slightly. He didn't expect that Gu Chengyu wouldn't accept this trick. At this moment, he had no other choice but to go back and talk to Liu Dong.
Liu Dong and the man in the bamboo hat cut off the heads of Liu Da and He Cheng, took off their clothes from the dead bodies, and wrapped the two heads. These heads are good things, and they will definitely be rewarded when they go back.
When the Wu escort leader saw the action of the man in the bamboo hat, he grabbed the knife in his hand. The escorts also suppressed their anger and said that they didn't know each other. How could they remove the head of the corpse if they didn't know each other? Isn't it just to go back and get rewards?
Mr. Han approached the two of them, intending to tell them what Gu Chengyu disagreed with. Who would have thought that when he came over and saw this scene, he was almost disgusted. These martial artists are so vulgar.
He suppressed the nausea in his heart and lowered his voice to tell the story to the two of them.
"Oh? You said he disagreed?" Liu Dong's rough voice sounded. Mr. Han leaned closer and felt very uncomfortable listening to it.
"My subordinate said that I would give him some money, but he was not happy. Judging from his clothes, he should be well worth the money. Later, my subordinate made his own decision and asked him to escort us to the capital and join our master. This would guarantee his bright future, but he was still not happy.
.”
"Did you tell him about the master?"
Liu Dong asked anxiously, could Fatty Han be so stupid as to reveal his master's background? He was suddenly filled with murderous intent. If so, he would have killed those three people even if he risked his life.
"No, no, how could my subordinate say that?" Mr. Han shivered with fright, but he knew that Liu Dong was ruthless!
If he talks nonsense, he may even be killed. The master trusts Liu Dong very much and he cannot afford to offend him.
"That's the best! If he doesn't want to, forget it. I don't believe it. Without him, we wouldn't be able to reach the capital."
Liu Dong used to be very arrogant and had lost his patience with Gu Chengyu's repeated rejections. In his opinion, letting Gu Chengyu escort him and agreeing to recommend him in front of his master was already a huge honor.
"Sir, it's not like this!" Mr. Han thought of another idea. He couldn't trust these two people. If another group of people came, wouldn't his life be decided here?
"Huh? Why, are you afraid that we can't protect this batch of gold and silver? Or are you afraid that you will lose your wealth and life if you follow us?"
Liu Dong also became dissatisfied with Fatty Han. He was very dissatisfied with Fatty Han's behavior of hiding whenever he was in danger. He was simply a rat who was greedy for life and afraid of death.
"How can that be possible? You adults are very skilled in martial arts, and my master often praises you two! But two fists can't beat four hands! More people don't mean more protection? Master has said it before! What he wants is to be foolproof."
Mr. Han also knew that Liu Dong was unhappy, but he didn't dare to show it. He could only curse in his heart. He didn't have the ability to let others talk about it.
Liu Dong was already very impatient, "Then what good ideas do you have?"
Mr. Han approached the two of them and said, "Sir! They must be going to the capital. Shouldn't we follow them closely? Anyway, this road does not belong to his family, can they not let us go? What if someone robs us again?
Dart, let's move closer to him, I don't believe they can just sit back and watch."
The more Mr. Han talked about it, the more he felt that his idea was very good. This way he could save money and reach the capital safely. Wouldn't that kill two birds with one stone?
Anyway, Gu Chengyu and the others had women and a lot of things, so they would not be able to run fast, so they were following closely behind.
Liu Dong glanced at Fatty Han. Although he despised such shameless behavior, this was the best way at the moment.
"No wonder the master thinks so highly of you, your mind works very fast."
This man was not good at martial arts and was not a scholar, but he was very cunning. Liu Dong felt that he had to be more careful, otherwise he might be tricked by him one day without even knowing it.
