"Master, a little further ahead, you can see that Wuyang City. ”

Bai Wushan looked at the end of the road from afar, and seemed to know the surrounding area well.

Zheng Xie rubbed his eyes and sighed:

"How many times have I said it...... Childe, it's called Childe! Master, that's too strange, isn't it?"

Bai Wushan was silent for a moment:

"But I owe you three lives.....

Zheng Xie rolled his eyes:

"If you owe me three lives, that's just a debt, and I'm your creditor, I can still understand if you call me son, it's too much to call the master!"

Bai Wushan seemed to be a little confused about the logic of this, but since Zheng Xie seemed so resistant, she also obediently changed her title:

"Childe ....."

Zheng Xie waved his hand weakly:

"I hope you can keep calling ..... from beginning to end"

Bai Wushan stuck out his tongue slightly, but immediately realized that this seemed to be a bit disrespectful, and quickly changed to a serious look.

Zheng Xie didn't bother to care about this, but he just asked a question seemingly unintentionally while hurrying on the road:

"Wushan, do you think human life is worth anything?"

Bai Wushan was a little puzzled:

"Can human life be measured in money?"

Zheng Xie sneered:

"Measurement can't be measured, but there are some short-sighted people who will give up their lives for a little vain property, do you believe it or not?"

Bai Wushan hesitated, but shook his head.

Zheng Xie laughed again, but just shook his head and said:

"Just watch. When you get to that Wuyang City, there is an opportunity to open your eyes. ”

For some reason, hearing Zheng Xie's vague words, Bai Wushan's heart was clouded with an ominous premonition.

And Zheng Xie didn't explain, he just brushed it off casually, which made Bai Wushan even more uneasy.

It didn't take long for the two of them to come to the outskirts of Nawuyang City.

There was still a distance of about a hundred steps from the city wall, Zheng Xie heard a noise at the gate of the East City, and listening to the mixed scolding, it was obviously not difficult to see whether the noise was good or bad.

Bai Wushan frowned, and then said to Zheng Xie:

"Lord...... Childe, this Wuyang City has always been mixed, I'm afraid we are caught up with a riot today, it may be more convenient to change the door. ”

Zheng Xie shook his head, just walked ahead naturally, and said:

"All you have to do is follow me. ”

Bai Wushan opened his mouth, but still chose to be silent.

When the people approached the city gate and looked at the crowded crowd, they realized that someone had a conflict with the city guard.

"The entrance fee to the city is getting more and more expensive, so how can those rural people afford it....."

"That's right, even if I have a good harvest, I can't withstand such an increase in the entrance fee, isn't this forcing people to go down the evil path?"

"It's no wonder those people can't bear it, it's a pity that they should have to suffer a little....."

Listening to the discussions of others, Bai Wushan also understood the cause of the conflict. Out of the identity of an entourage, although she knew that Zheng Xie had probably heard the ins and outs, she still chose to speak:

"Childe, these people have a conflict with the city guards because of the entrance fee, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for anyone to enter the city safely at this time. ”

Zheng Xie nodded noncommittally, but he didn't mean to turn around.

"Wushan, I want to ask you, if you were alone in this situation, what would you choose?"

Zheng Xie suddenly asked such a question.

Bai Wushan heard this, and only after a short thought, he responded:

"Avoid disasters and protect yourself. ”

Zheng Xie nodded slightly:

"Then if you have the strength to ignore everyone around you, including the city guards, what will you choose?"

Although Bai Wushan was full of doubts, he still replied obediently:

"Perhaps...... I'd better choose to avoid trouble. ”

The corners of Zheng Xie's mouth lifted, then slightly separated the crowd around him, and strode forward.

"Unfortunately, I'm not. ”

Bai Wushan was startled and wanted to follow closely behind Zheng Xie, but the crowd that closed immediately quickly separated her from Zheng Xie, making it impossible for her to keep up with Zheng Xie's pace in the first place.

At the front of the crowd, several shirtless men were blushing and cursing the city guards in front of them. And although those city guards had gloomy faces, out of the rules, they couldn't do anything directly against these civilians, so they could only let the other party insult them.

Just as the strongest of the reckless men was scolding excitedly, a thin figure walked out from behind him, and easily pushed him aside, making him stumble.

"Fuck off. ”

An indifferent voice sounded, making everyone present stunned.

The man also came back to his senses, and then felt that he had been humiliated, and he was worried that he couldn't get angry with those city guards, but at this time, someone knocked on the door, how could there be any reason to let go?

So, the man walked directly to the young man, stretched out his hand to grab his shoulder, and said fiercely:

"Housheng, you-"

Click!

A terrible scream followed.

Everyone gasped, and saw that the reckless man's elbow was directly folded outward at a strange angle, obviously broken with great force.

And the initiator of all this, the black-haired boy, just straightened his clothes, glanced coldly at the man who fell to the ground and wailed, and then glanced at the people around him.

The few people who were also scolding before all kept their mouths shut at this time, for fear of provoking this evil star.

The faces of the city guards also changed, and they all held the weapons on their waists.

Zheng Xie sneered, looked at the city guards who were on guard, and said:

"I'm afraid you can't control the brawls outside the city, right?"

The city guards looked at each other, but they still didn't dare to put down the weapons in their hands.

Zheng Xie shook his head, took out a few pieces of broken silver from the cloth bag on his waist, and threw them directly into the bamboo box placed next to the city gate, causing a few crisp sounds.

"I will enter the city, and if it is all right, do not hinder me. ”

Zheng Xie just left such a sentence, and then walked leisurely towards the city gate behind the city guards.

When Zheng Xie approached, all the city guards held their breaths, beware of this young man who didn't know where he came from, suddenly outbursting and hurting people.

However, Zheng Xie didn't have the momentum to make a move, and the city guards slowly moved out of the way.

They knew very well that this young man could not be provoked.

However, when Zheng Xie was about to step into the city gate, he paused and turned his head and said:

"You're not going to come with me?"

This inexplicable sentence made the people who had been holding their breath stunned, but then they saw a petite girl squeezed out of the crowd, carrying a bag, and hurriedly ran to the young man who broke the strong man's arm with one move.

"Childe...... Sorry ....."

Bai Wushan looked a little cramped, standing behind Zheng Xie with his head down, but he was speechless after saying this short sentence.

Zheng Xie didn't react, just turned around and continued to walk.

"Let's go. ”

Bai Wushan's hand holding the bag clenched tighter, and he also quickened his pace and followed behind Zheng Xie.

For this little girl who called the young man "Childe", several city guards also did not dare to stop it.

When Zheng Xie and Bai Wushan's figures gradually drifted apart, the oppressive atmosphere here gradually relaxed, and a burst of noise sounded, just like before, it was just the theme of noise, from the dispute of entering the city to the discussion of Zheng Xie and the two.

Bai Wushan lowered his head and followed behind Zheng Xie, speechless all the way, and Zheng Xie was also speechless, making the journey extremely dull.

Finally, Bai Wushan couldn't help but whisper:

"Childe...... Are you disappointed in me?"

Zheng Xie shook his head:

"It's not a disappointment, it's just a pity. ”

Bai Wushan raised his head, a little afraid to look at Zheng Xie's eyes:

"It's a pity?"

Zheng Xie said "um", and then said:

"In my opinion, your sharpness should not be as weak as it is now. ”

Hearing Zheng Xie's words, Bai Wushan wanted to explain something, but found that he couldn't speak.

"Since you are my retinue of Zheng Xie, you should have the sharpness to match it. ”

The depths of Zheng Xie's eyes revealed a rich rebelliousness:

"What I am not afraid of, you need not fear. What I have overlooked, you don't need to look at. All you have to do is follow in my footsteps. ”

"Because, your master's name is Zheng Xie. ”

"Got it?"

Bai Wushan held the jade card in her hand tightly, the cold aura in it made her have an inexplicable sense of trust in Zheng Xie's words, and the undoubted momentum in Zheng Xie's words also made her feel certain.

So, Bai Wushan nodded:

"Understood. ”

Zheng Xie smiled slightly and continued to walk forward:

"Now that you understand, you have to keep up. ”
