Guarding a reservoir? I am guarding the river of time! - Chapter 240
c239 The time and space that cannot be returned, the sorrow of little people
He still remembered that two years ago, a wooden coffin made of similar material appeared on the river.
It’s also a black coffin.
But although they are very similar, they are not the same mouth. They should be of the same category and material.
The next second, Su Mu held his hands in front of his chest and said to the black coffin in front of him: “Come out.”
After saying that, the black coffin was opened, and a man climbed out of the coffin.
Wearing a black robe, his skin is purple-black, and there are two silver horns on his forehead. His face is gloomy, his eye sockets are deep, and his pupils are deep and a little black.
After seeing Su Mu, the man in black robe felt tense and his breathing became somewhat disordered.
“Is it you who smuggled in?”
Su Mu stared at the man in black robe and asked.
As soon as these words came out, the black-robed man’s body trembled. He was more or less uncomfortable being questioned in such a superior manner, because he had always been the one to question others, but due to the pressure, he still answered slowly. Said: “It is indeed what I did wrong.”
“I hope senior can forgive me.”
He used his clone to travel against the long river of time. He was afraid that being noticed would lead to the failure of the assassination, so he chose to sneak across.
Because he had also heard a long time ago that an extremely powerful river keeper came to the Changhe River at this time, so to avoid accidents, sneaking across was the safest, but also the most dangerous way.
“You get ten for stealing.”
Su Mu doesn’t want to listen to these indifferent apologies. He sneaks in once and apologizes and that’s it?
If word of this spreads, wouldn’t everyone come here to sneak into the country in the future?
Therefore, one must steal and be punished ten, kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, and shock and frighten.
Hearing this, the man in black robe was also stunned. Ten punishment?
“What’s the meaning?”
“It means that you need to pay ten times the river crossing toll.” Su Mu then added: “I won’t embarrass you if we exchange things openly, so why do you do these secretive things?”
Hearing this, the man in black robe was also stunned. Crossing the river by himself has affected many causes and effects. Do you really just need to pay the river crossing fee? ?
“Everyone who crosses the river, regardless of gender or age, will be treated equally by me. It will be absolutely fair.”
“As long as you can afford the toll to cross the river, I will let you cross.”
Hearing Su Mu’s words, the man in black robe also lost his mind and froze on the spot as if he had been severely injured.
If I had known it was so easy, why would I bother planning such a big circle?
If he had crossed the river openly, Huang would have been eliminated by him long ago.
It’s good now, not only did Huang not get rid of Huang, but he even indirectly helped him grow, and his clone was captured back into the river of time. It was a complete failure!
The man in black robe began to look for his treasures. Because his purpose of this trip was to get rid of Huang who had not yet grown up, he did not bring any treasures with him, so he was asked to pay ten times the river crossing fee, and he actually paid. Sorry!
After searching for a long time, I only found two or three accessible treasures, a bronze mirror, a jade pendant, and a talisman.
After receiving these three magic weapons, Su Mu looked at them. After confirming that they were treasures, he accepted them: “There are still seven pieces left.”
Hearing this, the man in black robe smiled awkwardly and said: “Senior, you can see that I am just a clone and I didn’t bring any treasures with me. Can I owe the seven items first?”
Of course Su Mu could see the other party’s embarrassment, so he waited for him to say this.
He had drawn up the debt contract, handed it directly to the black-robed man’s hand, and said, “Press the blood seal.”
The man in black robe said: “Senior, I guarantee with my personality that I will definitely pay it back. Can I not do this?”
Hearing this, Su Mu sneered and said, “No, this is a rule. You can’t break the rules just because of you. And what I don’t believe the most is any guarantee of character.”
In his previous life, he had a bettor who was a puppy. He kept talking every day as a “personality guarantee” and he would definitely pay it back next month.
Under Su Mu’s coercion, his majestic ancestor was forced to press the bloody handprint. He never thought that such a day would happen to him.
After signing the debt contract, Su Mu collected it. “Okay, you can go, come and go wherever you want, don’t wander around on the river.”
Su Mu waved his hand to the man in black robe and said.
“Senior, can I ask you a favor?” The man in black robe thought of an excellent way.
If he can get the help of this man, he can wipe out Huang with a wave of his hand. For him, guarding the river for a long time and erasing Huang is just a wave of his hand, and it will not be contaminated with any cause and effect.
“After the thing is done, next time, I will definitely come in person and bring a heavy gift to repay the senior.” The man in black robe said with a heavy fist to Su Mu.
Hearing this, Su Mu waved his hand without any hesitation and said: “I never interfere in the affairs of anyone crossing the river. You can leave quickly.”
Over the years, there have been many people who wanted to seek help from him, just to avenge them, hunt down or something like that, but Su Mu refused them all.
Su Mu’s idea is very simple. He just wants to maintain order on the river, earn enough favor points as soon as possible, and leave this ghost place.
“Senior. Me”
“What are you? I’m not targeting you, but everyone. I won’t help.”
“Leave quickly.”
Seeing that Su Mu’s tone became impatient, the man in black robe moved the black coffin under his feet and headed downstream, quickly disappearing at the end of the river.
After sending away the man in black robe.
Ye Fan, Wu Shi and others appeared in the river of time again, and they were preparing to return to their own time and space.
When he saw Ye Fan and others passing by, Su Mu, who was patrolling the river, shouted to the three of them: “Hey, hey, stop.”
Ye Fan turned around with a puzzled look and asked, “What’s wrong? Senior?”
“Pay the money, why are you still so reckless and don’t understand the rules?” Su Mu taught Ye Fan a lesson.
Hearing this, Ye Fan’s eyes widened, with a look of disbelief on his face: “Senior, didn’t I pay you back?”
“It’s a one-time payment.” Su Mu explained.
“Ah?” Ye Fan opened his mouth wide.
“Let’s keep the account first. Remember to pay it back next time. Just pay it back together with the previous ones.”
Of course Su Mu knew that the other party couldn’t take out the treasure, but the rules couldn’t be broken.
“Thank you, senior, for taking the initiative.” The ruthless person didn’t care about these treasures. On the contrary, she was very grateful to Su Mu.
If Su Mu hadn’t taken action, not only would the rescue fail, but his own life would not have been saved.
Of course Su Mu knew what it was, so he waved his hand and said, “That person broke the rules and crossed the river secretly, so I took action.”
Wu Shi also cupped his fists and thanked Su Mu.
Ye Fan just said that he was a little poor, but he was also very grateful to Su Mu for his help.
“Go back, I have to continue my work.”
Su Mu waved to the three of them.
“If senior is free, you can come to Beidou as a guest. I will repay the debt in full and entertain senior well.”
Ye Fan cupped his fists at Su Mu.
