On the road, Jin Bao walked in front, saying nothing along the way. His figure looked as cold as the night.
Zheng Huan followed behind, opening his mouth from time to time to say something, but holding it back.
"You don't have to follow me."
Jin Bao suddenly spoke first.
Zheng Huan said quickly: "I have to follow you, you said you would take me with you."
Jin Bao said: "You go, I won't take you with me, and you don't have to follow those people."
Zheng Huan asked in confusion: "Why? They gave the money so readily, it doesn't look like they were cheating."
Jinbao looked back at him.
Zheng Huan said: "I just want to live a good life and rely on my own strength to live a good life."
Jin Bao seemed to sigh slightly, and then gave Zheng Huan a rare word of advice.
"You want to live a good life by relying on your strength, but you haven't caught up with the time when you can live a good life by relying on your strength. Go home."
After that, continue to move forward.
Zheng Huan refused to give up. No matter how stupid he was, he could still see that Jin Bao was very capable.
He just refused to admit defeat in terms of strength, but not in other aspects.
"Take me with you."
Zheng Huan shouted: "I can't go back to my home."
Jinbao didn't look back. He raised his hand and shook it twice, which meant that you didn't need to follow.
Zheng Huan wanted to chase him, but Jin Bao's figure disappeared in a flash. Zheng Huan didn't even seem to see clearly. He froze on the spot, as if he didn't know where to go for a moment.
Early the next morning, Jinbao appeared at the city gate carrying a small luggage. At this moment, people who were preparing to leave the city were already queuing up.
Recently, many people want to escape from Xiantang City, but for some reason, the general of the Jade Army named Lin Ye did not stop them.
The people in Xiantang City were probably frightened. The smell of blood that once spread in the city got into each of their noses.
Jin Bao silently lined up at the back of the team, and then saw Zheng Huan, the guy by the wall at the city gate, still asleep.
He didn't know where to go to find Jinbao, so he simply waited at the city gate.
Jin Bao frowned again when he saw him.
Why bother.
Jin Bao seemed to be talking to himself.
In his opinion, there is no need for people like Zheng Huan to get involved in disputes, and they are not suitable.
Seeing that Zheng Huan was still asleep, he simply continued to walk forward in silence without intending to wake the guy up.
But who knew that the people in line in front suddenly started arguing. He said he would come first, and she said she would come first. The noise became louder and louder.
Zheng Huan was woken up and was unhappy. He sat up and saw that the quarrel was between a man and a woman. He got up and went over to stand between them.
The man got angry and said, why do you stand in front of me?
The woman was also angry, but she said that man, you deserve it, because Zheng Huan was standing behind her and in front of the man, stuck between the two of them.
Zheng Huan didn't say anything. He bent down and picked up half a brick from the ground, then crushed it into pieces with a snap.
It wasn't over yet. He lowered his head and picked up another piece, turned around, and then slapped it on his forehead. The brick was not broken, but there was a bump on his forehead.
But obviously, this one blow can make people shut up better than the one when he crushed the brick.
The man looked at it and stopped talking. The woman looked at it and stopped talking.
Zheng Huan laughed.
He seemed to be very proud because he had solved such a problem. When he smiled, his dullness was somewhat lessened.
He looked back with a smile, probably trying to see the admiration for him in the eyes of the people behind him.
Then he saw Zheng Huan, and his eyes immediately lit up.
"Brother Jinbao."
Zheng Huan came out of the crowd and ran towards Jinbao. The man and woman were obviously relieved at the same time.
Jin Bao glanced at Zheng Huan, mainly at the bag on Zheng Huan's forehead.
It's not that big. It seems like this guy has really good physique. If he were an ordinary person, he could send him away in one go.
"Brother Jinbao, it's so early for you."
"Um."
"Let's wait outside the city. Have you eaten? I still have some dry food in my backpack."
"have eaten."
"Well, then I'll eat it myself."
Zheng Huan opened the bag and took out a piece of cake that looked very dry and hard.
At this moment, Jinbao looked back and saw other people arriving one after another, lining up behind him.
When leaving the city, Tan Yulin appeared and whispered a few words to the defenders at the city gate, and the defenders nodded in agreement.
When it came time to check on them, they just went through the motions and let them out.
When they arrived outside the city, there were several people waiting on the roadside. Tan Yulin went over to explain a few words, and then returned to the city.
This group of people was led away from Xiantang, got on two carriages, and headed south.
Jinbao didn't stop along the way. He kept his eyes closed and rested, as if he didn't care where he was going.
They walked for more than four hours before the carriage stopped. When they got off the carriage, they discovered that it was a small village.
There should be no one living in the village. When the Kitano Army came, the village was set on fire. If not all of it was burned down, the rest would look even more desolate.
The leader looked to be in his mid-twenties, and he always had a straight face.
"Everyone enters the village and has been living here recently. No one is allowed to leave without my consent. The owner you are trying to protect has a prominent identity. If you leave, the news may be leaked. Therefore, if anyone leaves the village without permission, I will kill him."
.”
After hearing this, everyone nodded and refused to leave. Anyway, as long as the money was enough, it would be fine.
Jinbao didn't seem to like talking to people very much, probably because he looked down on those people.
Zheng Huan also didn't like talking to others. As long as Jin Bao ignored him, he would find a corner and sit quietly by himself.
Some people thought he was stupid and wanted to tease him. He didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with it, but with Jin Bao's look, those guys didn't dare to be too presumptuous.
After all, someone had deliberately tried to stumble Zheng Huan before, but Jin Bao took the man by the collar and threw him directly out of the wall.
From then on, everyone knew that Jinbao was taking care of Zheng Huan, and they felt that they couldn't defeat Jinbao, so who would want to be troublesome.
The next day, another group of people came, and Jinbao noticed something was wrong with these people.
These people look fierce and fierce. Although they are all taciturn, they feel chilly whenever they raise their eyes.
Jinbao guessed that these guys were the people on the list he stole, and most of them were death row prisoners.
Nowadays, there are insufficient troops in Xiantang City, the government office is paralyzed, and there is no one to guard the prison, so it is not difficult for Tan Yulin and the others to rescue the prisoners.
There were many more people coming this time than those who came with them yesterday. There were actually seventy or eighty people.
Zheng Huan seemed a little afraid of these guys, so he deliberately stayed away.
As long as Zheng Huan was not bullied, Jinbao didn't bother to pay attention.
Someone came on the third day, and someone came on the fourth day. On the fifth day, only two people came this time, one was Tan Yulin and the other was Jing Kaisheng.
Obviously, Jing Kaisheng's work made Tan Yulin quite satisfied, so when he led the team away this time, Jing Kaisheng was regarded as the deputy leader. The leader was a young man in his twenties, named Ye Yuliang.
Ye Yuliang rarely spoke, and his eyes were always fierce. He didn't know if he had a grudge against anyone or something.
He glanced at everyone and said: "We are almost here. I will bring you to the boss. Remember, I will only tell you the rules once. You are not allowed to ask where you are going on the way, you are not allowed to leave without permission, and you are not allowed to inquire about each other's identities.
As for these three rules, I will kill anyone who violates them."
At this moment, a bald man snorted with great disdain.
This person is from the second group who came before, and is one of the group of death row prisoners.
Ye Yuliang heard this cold snort and looked over: "Do you think I'm kidding?"
Baldhead said: "Do you think I'm scared?"
Ye Yuliang walked slowly to the bald head, looked into the bald head's eyes and said, "I never scare people."
Baldhead: "I've seen a lot of self-righteous pretty boys like you. You think you're superior to others just because you're being a jerk to others. When you show your teeth and grin, you think people are afraid of dogs."
Ye Yuliang suddenly smiled.
He turned around and walked back, but the bald man refused to give up.
"Remember, don't give me orders in the future. I won't do that. You hired me with money, not because I rushed here. If you don't give me money, will I pay attention to you?"
Ye Yuliang looked back, but the bald head was still shouting: "Do you only glare at people like a bitch?"
Ye Yuliang said: "I hired you with money, but you have no way to give yourself a decent burial."
As soon as he raised his hand, Baldhead was already prepared and was about to rush over.
At this moment, Jin Bao reached out and gave Zheng Huan a hand. Zheng Huan was right behind the bald head, seeming to be stupidly watching the fun.
As he was being pulled away, the back of the bald head suddenly exploded, and a sharp sword energy passed through his head.
Baldhead, who was still rushing forward, became stiff and fell straight down.
If Jin Bao hadn't grabbed Zheng Huan immediately, even if Zheng Huan wouldn't have been hurt by the sword energy, he would have been splattered with blood.
Zheng Huan looked at Jinbao with eyes full of gratitude, but Jinbao walked aside again, seemingly not interested in what just happened.
Zheng Huan wanted to say thank you, but he was ignored at all.
Ye Yuliang said: "I might as well say a few more words. I am a disciple of Jianmen. Jianmen was attacked by Lin Ye's troops. There were many casualties among my fellow sects. I have great killing intent in my heart, so you should not do anything during this period."
If you mess with me, I'll kill one, and I won't mind killing the second one."
After saying that, he turned around and said, "Jing Kaisheng, please guide them down the road, get in the car and leave soon. If anyone breaks the rules, tell me."
Jing Kaisheng swallowed, looked at the body, and then at the blood splattered on the ground, and for a moment he didn't even dare to respond.
After Ye Yuliang left, Jing Kaisheng immediately said to the others: "Everyone, I beg you, don't mess with that guy, it's okay. We are here to make money, not to fight for our lives."
A group of people responded, but Jin Bao remained silent.
Jing Kaisheng glanced at the guy. He could guess that Jin Bao's name must be fake. Maybe the guy had some secrets that he didn't want others to know.
After packing their things and burying the bald body, everyone set off on their way.
This journey lasted for more than ten days, and we seldom got off the bus, which made them all exhausted.
Especially the group of death row prisoners, they were used to it when they were locked up, but they were not allowed to indulge after they were released, and they all seemed a little irritable.
After finally arriving at the place, everyone was eager to go to the city to improve their lives, but the carriage pulled them directly into the mountains.
After entering the mountain, we walked halfway, but the car stopped and we continued walking. After more than an hour, we saw a walled city.
There are soldiers on duty on the walled city, and you can tell from the armor on their bodies that they were the former Forbidden Army.
When he saw these forbidden troops, Jin Bao's eyes lit up for a moment, but it only lit up for a moment and passed in a flash.
He glanced at Zheng Huan, who was looking at the wild fruits on the trees by the roadside, as if he was very greedy.
