Chapter 245: Followers
Riding out of Yangzhou City, Baili Feng traveled about a mile away, a forest appeared in front of him, and under a tree on the side of the road, a figure was leaning against the trunk of the tree, holding a piece of grass in his mouth, and his eyes fell on him. γFengyun Reading Network.γ
"Phew~"
Baili Feng grabbed the reins of the horse, made the horse stop, looked at the figure, and showed a slight smile on his face.
"Why are you here?" asked Baili Feng.
"Waiting for you. The man said.
"What are I going to do?" asked Baili Feng again.
"Didn't you say that you would leave Yangzhou City in three days, this is the only way. The man said.
"I've been waiting for you for three days and you haven't come, what are you still doing with me?" Bai Li Feng smiled slightly and asked.
"I've been thinking about it for three days. The man said.
"What are you considering?" asked Baili Feng.
The man didn't answer directly, but glanced at Bai Li Feng deeply, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "It can be seen that you are a very capable person with a very good family background, and you will not lack the resources for cultivation in the future, right?"
"It's ok. Baili Feng laughed and said.
The man nodded and said, "You're right, I'm from a poor family, and I've already spent a lot of effort and hardships to be able to cultivate to this point, and I also know that if I'm still like this, then it may be difficult to make progress in the future, and if I want to become stronger, I can only make myself a rich person, or follow someone who has the ability to provide me with cultivation resources." β
"But this world is very cruel, a poor person, a weak person, there is no way to suddenly become rich, even if it is possible to become rich, it will definitely take many years. β
"And I, don't have that much time!"
"So, I have no choice but to follow someone who can provide me with cultivation resources!"
Baili Feng rode on the horse, looked at the figure, and said, "What does this have to do with me?"
The figure walked out from the dark place under the tree, revealing a strong and burly figure, and the two eyes on the resolute face were as cold as knives, but they were firm, looking at Baili Feng, and said word by word, "I want to follow you!"
Hearing this, Bai Li Feng was slightly stunned, in fact, from what this strong man said before, he had already guessed such a thing.
In fact, when he first met this man three days ago, he already had the intention of taking this follower.
However, for some reasons, he can't say it directly, he can only let the other party take the initiative to follow him, because from the previous contact, the other party is the same person as him, and he will not be swayed by the will of others, and will only act according to his own ideas.
If he had made it clear that he would accept this stout man as a follower, then the other party would definitely rather die than give in.
It is precisely because of this stubborn temperament that Bai Li Feng will feel that this person has an appetite for him.
At this time, listening to the other party take the initiative to say that he wanted to follow him, Bai Li Feng smiled secretly, but on the surface, he was silent and said, "Follow me? Why? Just because I can provide you with cultivation resources?"
"That's right. The stout man said.
"Then what's the benefit for me?" Bai Li Feng stared at the sturdy man and asked, "You follow me and let me provide you with cultivation resources, so what good is that for me? Why should I do something that is not beneficial? Could it be that because I gave you a silver ingot last time, you treat me as a great benevolent person?"
The stout man was silent for a moment, and then said firmly, "I can do as you ask!"
"Do you do what I want, do you mean to be my subordinate?" asked Bai Li Feng.
Hearing the word "subordinate", the stout man's face was a little ugly, but he still gritted his teeth slightly and said, "Yes." β
Hearing this answer, Bai Li Feng smiled, the words have already been said to this point, it seems that the other party's determination has been decided, and it seems that the other party has some reasons to force him to do this.
Although I don't know what the reason is, Bai Li Feng doesn't want to ask, as long as the other party makes up his mind, then his mind will be achieved.
He smiled, looked at the stout man, and asked, "Why should I trust you?"
This question is critical.
Because if he hastily accepts a subordinate, what will he do if he rebels in the future?
The people of this world are sinister, and although Baili Feng admires the temperament of the other party, he also has to guard against it.
Listening to Baili Feng's question, the strong man was silent for a moment, then looked at Bai Li Feng, raised his right hand in front of him, stretched out three fingers, and swore, "I swear by my soul, follow Bai Li Feng, obey orders, never rebel, if there is a violation, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed!"
Soul Oath!
The most vicious and effective oath in the Kyushu continent.
Once you have made a soul oath, from now on, heaven and earth will witness!
If the person who made the oath violates the oath, he will be thundered by the sky and his body and spirit will be destroyed.
Seeing that the other party made such a ruthless oath, Bai Li Feng's eyes were also slightly condensed, and it could be seen that the other party's determination was even more resolute than he expected.
"Well, I promised you. Baili Feng looked at the sturdy man and said.
"Thank you, childe. The stout man immediately knelt down on one leg and hugged his fists.
"Get up. Baili Feng waved his hand and said, "Don't call me Gongzi, my trip is to Yitian Sect, the masters of the sect are gathered, and there are many geniuses, all of whom are monks who pursue martial arts...... Brother Feng!"
Bai Li Feng thought about it for a long time, and suddenly felt that the younger generation in the family seemed to be calling him well.
However, the stout man said, "Brother Feng...... That's not a good name, so why don't I call you the boss!"
"Whatever. Baili Feng said lightly.
"Then I'll call you Boss. The stout man said.
"After talking about it for a long time, then what's your name?" Bai Li Feng looked at the sturdy man and asked.
"Back to the boss, my name is Zhou Yunbai!" said the stout man.
"Zhou Yunbai ......" Baili Feng muttered, and then said, "Okay, then let's go!"
"Yes. Zhou Yunbai responded and followed the horse's side.
Since Zhou Yunbai didn't have horses, in order to take care of him, Baili Feng could only ride slowly.
Looking up at the sky, Baili Feng couldn't help but shake his head slightly, and said in his heart: At this speed, I don't know if I can get to the next town before dark.
The two of them walked slowly, and by evening they had only traveled more than thirty miles.
The mountains ahead are undulating, the vegetation is forested, and the mountain avenues are deserted and empty.
Bai Li Feng and Zhou Yunbai had just walked to a big mountain, and were thinking about finding a place to rest for the night, when suddenly, a noisy sound came from a distance ahead.
"Help!!"
Cries for help.
Bai Li Feng and Zhou Yunbai suddenly looked stunned, and ran towards the distance where the voice came from.
Baili Feng rode a horse, the speed was relatively fast, and he rushed to the front of Zhou Yunbai at once.
His face was solemn, a look of surprise and worry, and he waved his whip desperately, urging the horses to gallop quickly.
The voice just now sounded somewhat familiar, like a ......
