Chapter 134: Bad luck

The trip to Chuanbei Mountain made Wang Baoshan suddenly fall into a crisis, which was also something he never expected.

For this reason, he was also depressed and entangled for several days, always thinking about everything that happened before and after.

But he has too little knowledge, and many situations are beyond his comprehension and control, so no matter how much he tries to think about the answer, it is futile and useless.

In order to find out the situation, he also deliberately found a time to ask the little black dragon, hoping that it could solve some doubts for himself.

But the little black dragon told him that many things in this world are unpredictable by ordinary people, and since they have happened, they must be brave to face them.

The little black dragon also said that its divine soul was not complete. Only a little bit of the situation involving the demon clan and spirit beasts did it know a little.

Regarding other things in the cultivation world, like Wang Baoshan, he was also at a loss.

This was undoubtedly aggravated, and Wang Baoshan's inner doubts made him more and more frightened.

I don't know why this weirdness makes people so confused.

Perhaps, if you really want to be like what the old man said, don't have any delusions, or be honest and help him fulfill his promise, and everything can be resolved, so that he is both helpless and melancholy!

But self-reflection alone is useless, since something terrible has happened, what should he do, and it is time for him to seriously consider the problem.

In order to prevent Lu Yun from following him into danger again, Wang Baoshan had to think about whether he should go on the road alone to find relevant clues.

As for the flint powder hidden in the Sichuan Tablet Mountain, he didn't have the heart to explore it again.

He estimated that it might be that Chen Chong's news was wrong, and there was nothing they were looking for in this big mountain, or that there was indeed a vein of flint powder in the depths of Chuanbei Mountain, but they didn't find it.

But what is the meaning of these compared to the stakes of life?

Now he doesn't want to think about it, and he doesn't want to stay in this place that scares him.

Just three days later, Wang Baoshan discussed with Lu Yunyi and decided to find some lively places first, try their luck, and see if they could find some other news.

Not far from Mt. Chuanbei, there is a town called Pingshui Castle by the locals.

They decided to go over and have a look and ask someone about the situation.

Two days later, Lu Yun used the magical method of teleportation to take Wang Baoshan through the mountains of more than sixty miles and came to the gate of Pingshui City.

This is a large city with mountains and rivers, which is more than twice as large as Guanping City.

At a glance, there are thousands of houses, neat roads, intertwined cars and horses, and crowds of people, a prosperous and lively scene.

Even at the gates of the city, there were fifteen or sixteen well-equipped guards guarding the city. Moreover, none of them looked like ordinary people, they were all burly and majestic men.

Among them, there is a thin and handsome man who is eight feet tall, which is particularly different.

Just look at him, his face is as cold as frost, and he doesn't smile. A pair of vicious eyes, and from time to time, wandering and examining the people entering and leaving the city gate, seemed to be looking for some wanted criminal.

This made Wang Baoshan, who was about to enter the city, couldn't help but look at the man a few more times. Through observation, he expected that the other party's martial arts skills must not be low, and it is not good to say that he is still practicing his family.

Perhaps it was the first time to see such a scene, in order to avoid trouble, Wang Baoshan told Lu Yun not to panic, but he himself was flustered and a little panicked.

"Stop...... Where did you come from......"

As they entered the gates, the guards of the city seemed to notice the strangeness of the two of them and stopped them.

"Official, we are from the countryside, and we came to a small village in the Sichuan Monument Mountain......"

When Lu Yun saw the guards guarding the city, he blocked the questioning, and dealt with the interrogation according to the words he had discussed with Wang Baoshan on the way here.

When they came, they asked the people of the village about some basic information about the city.

I know that in this Pingshui City, it is usually heavily guarded, and when entering and exiting the city gate, there will be guards guarding the city to check their identities.

It is said that this is the way to distinguish between the good, whether there are bandits or bandits, who sneak into the city and do evil.

Therefore, on the way here, Wang Baoshan and Lu Yun discussed the strange town they were about to face.

Wang Baoshan pretended to be a trader who went out to travel, while Lu Yun pretended to be a servant and was his attendant.

According to some people, anyone with a little status, for the convenience of travel, will generally let his servants do things for him.

Otherwise, it will be looked down upon by outsiders and appear to be a bit cheap.

Wang Baoshan has also been a centurion, so he naturally knows these unwritten rules, and he asked Lu Yun to act at the opportunity, so as not to show his flaws.

"Chuanbei Mountain, that's a mountainous area more than sixty miles away!"

At this time, the sun was setting in the west, and it was getting late, and it was almost afternoon.

At the gate of the city, there were very few people entering and leaving the gate.

The other city guards were bored, and after listening to Lu Yun's words, they couldn't help but look sideways, and looked at the two of them a few more times.

Only the emaciated man still looked cold, and he didn't seem to have much interest in Lu Yun and Wang Baoshan.

The guard who had questioned him before looked suspicious, and then asked, "What are you doing here?"

"If you go back to the official, we will come to the city to purchase some medicinal materials, so that we can go back to the villagers and heal the sick......

"What? procure medicinal herbs...... Lao Tzu looks at the two of you, sneaky, you don't look like a good person at first glance, it must be the person from Qingshui Village!"

But at this moment, behind those guards, suddenly, there was an angry shout.

I saw that a big man walked over with a steady tiger step,

Before his people arrived, the voice had already come, which made Wang Baoshan and Lu Yun stunned on the spot.

"Brother Liu, why are you here?"

"Brother Liu, please ......"

As soon as the man came, several other guards hurriedly greeted him.

Only the thin and handsome man was unmoved, as if he was a little displeased with the big man who had just arrived, and he just didn't care about it.

"Someone, tie me ......."

As soon as the big man arrived, he didn't look at Wang Baoshan and Lu Yun, and called out directly.

"Official, there is a misunderstanding! We are really from Chuanbei Mountain!"

Seeing this scene, Lu Yun hurriedly explained.

But his explanation seemed to be very futile, and the guards guarding the city ignored him, and directly took out the hemp rope and tied up Wang Baoshan and Lu Yun.

As soon as they arrived in Pingshui City, they didn't even step into the city gate, and Wang Baoshan and Lu Yun were tied up like bees by the guards guarding the city.

After some escort, the two of them were taken to a dungeon and locked up.

In the dungeon, the environment is harsh, gloomy and dark, what a good place!

This made Wang Baoshan's heart sad and indignant, and he felt that his luck was really bad.

It's no wonder that they are in prison before they have made a difference, how can they not let his mood be depressed!

However, fortunately, with Lu Yun, he used the means of teleportation to break free from the shackles of the rope without much effort.

After dark, they escaped from the dungeon's carelessness on the part of the guards who were guarding the dungeon.

"Brother Tian, where are you going now?"

After coming out, Wang Baoshan asked a man who was rescued by them.

This man claimed to be surnamed Tian and his name was Tian Wei, and he was a native of this Pingshui City.

After escaping, in order to avoid the guards patrolling the streets at night, Wang Baoshan and Lu Yun did not know the path, so they had to follow Tian Wei.

"Engong...... Don't panic, wait for me to take you to my house......"

In the dark night, Tian Wei was grateful to the two of them. And he opened the way ahead, and led them into the city, in the very complicated alleys.

Under the cover of night, the three of them hid in deep, dense alleys, sneaking all the way. After walking around for about half an hour, I came to the depths of an alley.

"Engong...... When we arrive, let's rest at my house for the time being, and after dawn, we'll talk about it in the long run......"

Tian Wei said, taking the lead and climbing an earthen wall.

Wang Baoshan raised his eyes and found that this earthen wall, almost more than one person high, was connected to a small courtyard with a separate door.

Since there is a place to spend the night, it is better than sleeping on the street. He didn't think much about it anymore, followed Tian Wei and Lu Yun together, and climbed in.

"Brother Tian, what a righteousness!"

After entering the house and drinking tea, Wang Baoshan thanked him.

He found that Tian Wei's home was not too big, with a single courtyard, and there were no other houses except for three wings.

"Engong, where did you come from?"

"Kawabei Mountain ......"

"That's a long way off......"

In a simple conversation, Wang Baoshan did not tell Tian Wei the truth, after all, everyone had just met in Pingshui, and there was no need to tell the truth.

But Tian Wei was a solid eye and told him all about his situation.

He said he was born here as a child, and his parents died when he was thirteen.

In order to survive, he became a running guy in Pingshui City, in the Ping'an Restaurant on East Street.

This is six or seven years, although life is hard, but it is still possible to survive.

It's just that not long ago, he made trouble because of a few guests drinking, and he stepped forward to persuade him to fight, but he was beaten up.

He was also tied up in the dungeon by the guards who patrolled the streets that day, along with the troublesome guests, on the grounds of making trouble.

Originally, Tian Wei, who was innocently trapped in the dungeon, would think that his old club would take the silver to save him.

But inside, he waited for more than ten days, but he didn't see any movement.

At that time, he understood in his heart that he was just a lowly running guy, how could the owner be willing to spend money for him!

Six or seven years of hard work, there is no merit and hard work!

Forget it, according to one of the guards who was guarding him in the dungeon, his host may have deliberately put on a play for him.

Because of Hetian Wei, the guests who came in together were picked up by the owner of Ping'an Restaurant for five taels of silver on the evening of the same day.

"Five taels of silver ......"

After Tian Wei heard this, he fell into sadness on the spot.

His six or seven years of wages, his old employer, has not paid him a cent!
