Chapter 61: An Unexpected Branch

It's embarrassing.

Du Ziyuan looked at Mu Chengan, who didn't know what kind of expression to put on at this time.

Before he said it, he was slapped in the face in an instant, and the experience was simply sour.

At the same time, he was also very curious about who was so bold as to dare to rob the road in such a place.

Mu Chengan opened the car door and walked down, while the other three poked their heads out of the car window. However, when they saw the robber clearly, they all felt a little crying and laughing.

Because that thin figure is clearly just a ten-year-old child. This guy is wearing a shabby linen coat and has a rusty kitchen knife in his hand, and he still wants to rob like this, why are you kidding me?

"Who gave him the courage to do this?" Liang Jingru?" Du Ziyuan exclaimed.

At this time, Mu Chengan had already gotten out of the carriage, and he was also a little caught off guard after seeing the child's appearance clearly.

"I'm sorry, Master Mu, this kid suddenly broke out......" The coachman apologized to Mu Chengan. He knew that Mu Chengan's identity was not ordinary, and the sudden braking he had just made the people in the car frightened, and if he was held accountable, he would not be able to eat and walk away.

This coachman is also a pure character, if some bullying coachman will run over this kid directly. Anyway, they are all robbers, and if they die, they will die in vain.

"It's okay," Mu Cheng'an didn't mean to blame him, but looked at the child, "Little brother, why are you here alone? ”

Du Ziyuan knew that this would be the case, this Mu Chengan's personality was too rigid and serious, and he also strictly abided by etiquette, he was simply a textbook gentleman. But in his opinion, he is actually an elm head, and he doesn't know how to be flexible at all, and he doesn't know how the Penglai Sword Sect was taught.

If it were him, it wouldn't do anything to the kid, but it would just drive him away, and then go on his own way. Where will he be like Mu Chengan and meddle in educating others. Of course, if it's a cute little Lori, it might be.

The little boy was obviously a first-time robber, and both feet were still shaking. Seeing Mu Chengan approaching him, he panicked even more, waving the kitchen knife in his hand indiscriminately and shouting: "Don't, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and hand over the money!

As a result, I didn't pay attention, my hand slipped, and the kitchen knife flew out directly.

The air was suddenly quiet.

The little boy looked at the people in the carriage and Mu Cheng'an in a daze, frozen there not knowing what to do.

Mu Chengan probably wanted to appease him, so he stepped forward and stretched out his hand: "Little brother......"

How do you know that the little boy suddenly shouted: "Ah!" Then he knelt down in front of Mu Cheng'an with lightning speed, which was called a fluency.

"Uncle, spare my life, I don't dare anymore, spare my life......"

Seeing this guy's constant kowtowing, Du Ziyuan complained: "Is this guy here to be funny?"

After Mu Chengan reacted, he immediately stepped forward to help him up: "Little brother, you don't have to be afraid, just tell me if you have anything." ”

The little boy ignored him, and still kowtowed there by himself, and Mu Chengan persuaded him for a while before he quieted down. After careful inquiry, I found out that his grandfather was sick, but the family had no money to hire a doctor, and he couldn't get money when he was young, so he had to think of robbery. It's a pity that he is obviously not this material.

"It's bloody. After listening to this guy's words, Du Ziyuan suddenly felt bored. Anyway, give him some money and it's over, I thought there would be something interesting to unfold.

However, just as he was thinking this, suddenly the system's prompt jumped out.

"Side quest trigger: Solve the difficulties of the Teenage Village. ”

"Mission rewards: +1 for the number of draws for the primary item, +1 for the junior temporary assistant (7 days). ”

"Side quests are selectable, and if you reject them, the quest will disappear and cannot be triggered again. ”

"Please select: accept/decline?"

Du Ziyuan suddenly came to his senses, and looked out of the carriage after choosing to accept it.

Mu Chengan had already given the little boy 10 taels of silver for him to take back to his grandfather for medical treatment. He did not dare to give more, for fear of bringing harm to the child. The little boy was so excited that he almost knelt down to kowtow to him again, but was stopped by Mu Cheng'an.

At this moment, Du Ziyuan, who was lying on the car window, suddenly spoke: "Hey, little brother, can you really save your grandfather as long as you give you money?"

Mu Chengan looked at Du Ziyuan suspiciously, and the little boy was shocked: "When, of course, if I have money, I can ask a doctor to treat my grandfather." ”

Du Ziyuan did not continue to ask: "That's it, then you can go." ”

"Thank you. As if the boy had been amnestied, he immediately ran into a small fork in the road with the money.

When he was almost far away, Du Ziyuan said to the coachman, "Master Wang, can you please follow that child?"

"Brother Du, why are you?" Mu Chengan had already returned to the car at this time, looking at Du Ziyuan puzzled, his behavior of suddenly asking just now was very strange.

The coachman had already followed Du Ziyuan's words at this time, the fork was not wide, but it was barely possible to accommodate the carriage to pass, and he followed the little boy from a distance, and he was not afraid of losing it.

In the car, Du Ziyuan explained to Mu Chengan: "Did you see what his two hands were doing when I asked him just now?"

Mu Chengan recalled that his memory was still very strong: "He was holding the silver I gave him with one hand, and the other hand was constantly touching that hand. ”

"That's right," Du Ziyuan said, "This is a gesture of self-comfort, which means that he doesn't even believe what he says, and needs to rely on this action to convince himself." ”

"Are you saying he's hiding something from us?" Mu Chengan said in surprise.

Du Ziyuan nodded: "I think yes, it may be true that his grandfather is sick, but giving him money obviously can't completely solve the problem." ”

Mu Chengan looked at him with some admiration: "Brother Du, can you easily tell if a person is lying?"

"In general," Du Ziyuan said, "I have a neighbor who is not very expressive, and in order to understand her meaning, I am used to observing a person's small movements or expressions. ”

Xia Wuyi nodded sympathetically, he was forced to wear the first women's clothing in his life by Du Ziyuan's ability, until now, he didn't know how long he hadn't touched men's clothing. Xiao Jin is the same, she wanted to deceive Du Ziyuan at the beginning, but she was instantly recognized, and she became his maid.

The group followed the little boy all the way, and the little boy's feet were not fast, and he stopped and rested for about three hours before rushing back to his village.
