Chapter 359: Killing Chickens and Monkeys
Shen Ye watched this Demon Emperor leave, and his heart was full of solemnity. He knew that the reason why the Demon Emperor was like this was because it was to attract Wanyan Zongwang's attention in order to cover Shen Ye's departure.
Like Zhou Tong, he had deep expectations for Shen Ye, because they had never seen a genius who made rapid progress like Shen Ye. The Demon Emperor was not a stupid person, he knew that Shen Ye had his own secrets, but he had no covetous heart.
Cultivation has reached this point, especially pay attention to chance, some things that are yours are yours, and if they are not yours, even if you grab them, you can't grab them. And now is not the time for infighting, compared to snooping into Shen Ye's secrets, it is better to do his best to help him improve his cultivation.
Because Shen Ye is very likely to be the strongest person in the entire Great Song Dynasty who is most likely to advance to the Earth Immortal, although this hope is very slim, it is still greater than the hope of these old guys.
Besides, Shen Ye's side, he thought that what the Demon Emperor said was very reasonable, but when he really wanted to decide, the whole person became confused again.
Yes, where else can he go besides Da Song?
Just when Shen Ye was puzzled, he suddenly remembered that Gu Shan had said that the Gu Mo Luo Sect had a branch in the Ryukyus. At the beginning, it was very close to the local forces, but after Shi Hu came to power, he was bent on killing, and over time, his connection with the Ryukyus became weak. By now, contact has been largely lost.
Furuyama once asked Shen Ye if he wanted to send Qingfeng to Ryukyu once, but the situation was not stable at that time, so it was shelved by Shen Ye.
"Ryukyu? is the treasure island in my memory!" Shen Ye muttered to himself, but he quickly made up his mind,
"In that case, let's go for a walk around the Ryukyus!"
Shen Ye's figure flickered and disappeared into the night, leaving only the howling wind that seemed to tell the desolation of this place.
Shen Ye is a man of action, and he will act directly if he makes up his mind, but he is not a reckless person. So in the next few days, Shen Ye first restored his cultivation to the peak before embarking on the journey of the Ryukyus.
In this era, although the connection between the Ryukyus and the Great Song Dynasty was not very close, there were many caravans. It was through this journey that those long-distance caravans resold their goods, which not only facilitated commercial trade, but also deepened ties.
Shen Ye didn't choose to go directly, but disguised himself as a young scholar and found a senior horse team to follow. The boss of the horse team is a man with five big and three thick, although he looks murderous with a fat face, but he didn't expect to treat Shen Ye extremely kindly.
Shen Ye gave him five hundred taels, and the big man couldn't close his mouth with a smile, and he was greeted with good wine and meat. Shen Ye glanced at the greed in his eyes, and his eyes were full of indifference.
After three days of discussion, they left for the Ryukyus. Shen Ye found an inn at random and stayed there, during which Shen Ye found that some people were spying on him. At first, Shen Ye was still a little suspicious, could it be that Wanyan Zongwang's minions had already chased here.
But later, Shen Ye observed a few times and relaxed. Those people were none other than those who had been in the previous caravan. Shen Ye glanced at them coldly, these people who were hungry for profit Shen Ye had seen too much, if they learned to be content, Shen Ye could give them a way out.
However, if they have bad intentions, Shen Ye is not the kind of rotten good person who is kind.
In a blink of an eye, three days went in a hurry, and early in the morning, Shen Ye packed his luggage and prepared to leave, saying that he was packing his luggage, but in fact, Shen Ye just brought a few happy clothes and a folding fan.
"Shen Gongzi, you're here!"
As soon as the boss saw Shen Ye's figure, he immediately greeted him with a smile on his face. Shen Ye nodded and said, "Brother Zhang, when can our horse team set off?"
Brother Zhang's eyes rolled, originally he was still muttering in his heart that he didn't know how to explain to Shen Ye, but he didn't expect Shen Ye to take the initiative to urge, so he won Brother Zhang's heart.
With a flattering smile on his face, he said very enthusiastically: "Originally, our horse team had to wait for another day, but if Shen Gongzi is in such a hurry to go to Ryukyu, then let's prepare a little and set off!"
Shen Ye glanced at him, Shen Ye also understood what this brother meant, but Shen Ye felt that he couldn't be insatiable. It takes about half a month to go to Ryukyu, and Shen Ye's willingness to pay five hundred taels is already a bargain in the world for Brother Zhang. But I didn't expect that this person was not satisfied.
"In this way, thank you Brother Zhang!"
Shen Ye opened his mouth lightly, directly disrupting the little abacus in Brother Zhang's heart. The smile on Brother Zhang's face was a hint of embarrassment, but he quickly concealed it again. He raised his bow and bent his upper body down, his eyes full of smiles when he got up again.
"Shen Gongzi is polite!"
After Brother Zhang finished speaking, he turned around and said to the subordinates behind him, "Brothers, pack your things and get ready to go!"
One of the sharp-beaked monkey gills, who looked very clever, had an inquiring look in his eyes, and the brother Zhang made a look. The man nodded without leaving a trace, and then prepared to set off with the others.
Shen Ye got up calmly, clamped his legs, and the horse under his crotch walked forward directly. The whole team of centaurs marched towards the Ryukyus. This road is tens of thousands of miles, and it is very difficult to trek through mountains and rivers, but this kind of environment is simply trivial for those horsemen who walk on the road all year round, as for Shen Ye, he is just to hide people's eyes.
At the beginning, Brother Zhang secretly explained to his subordinates, and he traveled thousands of miles on the first day, with the purpose of consuming Shen Ye's energy. Moreover, the effect is also obvious, Shen Ye's face is full of exhaustion, and as soon as he stops at night, he returns to the tent and sleeps.
These people are very concerned on the surface, but they are indeed full of sneers in their hearts.
During the first long journey, many people couldn't stand the harsh environment, and according to Brother Zhang's estimate, they would have a serious illness in about three days and nights. When the time comes, Shen Ye will be directly run to the valley by them to feed the wolves, and Shen Ye's wealth will fall into their pockets without much effort.
Thinking of this, this brother's face was full of excitement.
However, when he got up the next day, Shen Ye was still in the crowd with a horse in high spirits. The kid who looked very clever was suddenly dumbfounded, where did he think that this Shen Ye was a dragon-like figure.
With a smile on his face, he pretended to be like that. The brothers in the horse team felt that something was wrong, but they didn't know where to start. In desperation, I had to hurry silently.
Brother Zhang also muttered in his heart, but seeing that Shen Ye was so energetic, he couldn't help but be curious on his face.
"Shen Gongzi!"
He walked to Shen Ye's side in a fart, and there was a hint of flattery in his words.
"Well, what's wrong?"
Shen Ye was closing his eyes at first, and when he heard Brother Zhang speak, Shen Ye opened his eyes. He glanced at Brother Zhang's calm mouth.
"It's okay, I just wanted to ask how you feel? Yes, I feel like you traveled a long day yesterday, but you didn't show any fatigue at all, it seems that your physical fitness is very good!"
Of course, Brother Zhang would not ask directly, but every time he spoke, he was talking about Shen Ye's words. How could this little trick deceive Shen Ye?
"Oh, I've learned a little martial arts since I was a child, and I still don't have a lot of fighting with people, but it's still more than enough to keep fit. Brother Zhang doesn't have to worry about me, just hurry with all his might. ”
Shen Ye's words were full of thoughtful thoughts, and at the same time, he hinted at Brother Zhang again. That Brother Zhang's IQ is not too bad, but during that time period, Shen Ye provided him with a lot of information, although Brother Zhang traveled south and north, and saw a lot of the world, but he had no effect in front of Shen Ye.
That Brother Zhang had no choice but to speed up again, two thousand miles a day, and three days with a face. At such an intensity of the trek, even their own were a little overwhelmed. But there was no reaction at all in the dark night, just a beautiful and beautiful scenery.
At this time, they still don't understand Shen Ye's intentions. That Brother Zhang has been brushed by Shen Ye for four days in a row, and his face has long been impatient. They immediately copied the guy and surrounded Shen Ye.
"Guys, what does that mean?"
Shen Ye opened his mouth lightly, not taking them into account at all.
That brother Zhang looked at Shen Ye's indifferent expression, and there was a trace of doubt in his heart, but when he thought of the wealth that Shen Ye had, the trace of vigilance in his heart was drowned in endless desire.
"Don't talk nonsense, quickly take out all the money on your body, the uncle is in a good mood, and he can leave you a whole corpse." ”
At this time, the vicious Han Cai really showed his fangs. The other little brothers' faces were full of ferocity, and although they didn't speak, their attitudes were indeed very obvious.
Shen Ye shook his head, with a hint of regret in his eyes.
"I gave you a chance, but you just don't cherish it!"
Seeing that Shen Ye was so arrogant, Brother Zhang didn't pay attention to them at all, and immediately urged one of his subordinates behind him. He swung the iron rod and smashed it at Shen Ye's head, and Shen Ye's right hand was pushed out, and the person exploded suddenly.
The hot blood fell on the other cheeks, and Brother Zhang subconsciously touched it, feeling the temperature that had not yet passed, this Brother Zhang did not hesitate, and knelt on the ground with a pop. Seeing this, the other younger brothers just didn't care about begging for mercy and climbed down directly.
Shen Ye looked at these people coldly, and said calmly: "Keep going!"
Under the shroud of death, no one could die, they all rushed desperately, and the original half-month trip was cut by half.
