I can bless thousands of magical powers - Chapter 131
c131 Meeting on the road
The grass is long and the warblers are flying, the ancient road is quiet and far away.
The warm wind blows towards him, and Zhang Yuan, who is riding a horse, feels relaxed and happy.
At this moment, he does not know that he has been pursued by someone with a high bonus.
But even if Zhang Yuan knew, he would not be surprised at all.
Because this is already within his expectations.
After arriving in Qing’an County, he learned about the situation of the mission target-Zhao Rongbin, and read the message Yue Wuji left for him.
Zhang Yuan guessed a little bit of the thoughts of the war hall master.
Yue Wuji obviously wanted to train him to be a sharp weapon to stab the enemy.
But the same weapon can also be divided into open spears and hidden arrows!
The hidden arrow is a killer assassin.
In Zhang Yuan’s last mission, he showed his ability to shoot and kill the opponent from a long distance.
Take the enemy by surprise and kill with one shot!
The open spear is a warrior who can fight the enemy in an upright duel.
How to choose depends on Zhang Yuan himself.
Once Zhang Yuan makes a choice, Yue Wuji will certainly invest the corresponding resources to sharpen his weapon.
Charge for the Whale Gang, or clear obstacles!
Of course, Zhang Yuan can also give up the mission.
Then he will have no use value to Yue Wuji, and he will be used as cannon fodder in the future.
Having lived two lives, Zhang Yuan can still guess some of the ideas of the superiors.
Compared with assassins, he prefers to be a general!
Therefore, Zhang Yuan gave up the idea of sneak attacking Zhao Rongbin and went directly to the door to challenge and kill the strong enemy head-on.
He did not hide his real name and origin, both to establish prestige and to make a name for himself.
Establish your own name in this world!
Being rewarded will only make Zhang Yuan’s reputation spread wider and louder.
The only thing to worry about is that the angry enemy may take revenge on Zhang Yuan’s mother.
After all, the rules of the world that do not harm family members are not something that everyone can abide by.
Therefore, in the letter that Zhang Yuan asked Zhan Peng to send back to Linhe, he expressed his willingness to use the reward of this mission in exchange for Zhang’s mother to move to Jingbao.
Even if it was only for a short period of time.
Jingbao is the base of Linhe Branch, with strict defense and many masters, and three fourth-level warriors.
Naturally, it is the safest.
Zhang Yuan believes that Yue Wuji will not refuse his request for both emotional and rational reasons.
Otherwise, wouldn’t it be chilling?
And if you are honest, isn’t Zhang’s mother the best hostage for the gang’s upper echelons to control Zhang Yuan?
Zhang Yuan understands that he is weak now, and he must rely on the big tree of the Angry Whale Gang to grow.
The better he performs, the wider the road ahead.
There will always be a day to break free from the shackles and fly high!
It is precisely because he thought clearly that Zhang Yuan embarked on the journey of experience with confidence.
As he went north, he met more and more business travelers.
As the saying goes, the big tricks hide in the mountains and swamps, and the small tricks show up in the wild.
There are no big mountains or swamps in the area north of Qing’an. Most of the area is open plains and rolling hills.
There are many villages scattered around, and the population is quite prosperous.
This is very different from the scene around Linhe.
It is also much safer.
After traveling hundreds of miles, Zhang Yuan stopped at a roadside tea shed when his mount was running out of breath.
This kind of tea shed on the official road is not uncommon, for merchants and travelers to rest and drink some tea to replenish their energy.
The tea shed was very simple, with seven or eight tables inside, and many people sitting.
Among these people, there are both traveling merchants and wanderers.
There is even a monk.
This tea shed is run by an old couple, who are busy serving tea and water to the guests.
Zhang Yuan led the horse aside, then took a bundle of hay to feed it.
He found an empty seat and sat down, and greeted the boss.
The gray-haired boss quickly brought Zhang Yuan a pot of hot tea, nodded and asked: “Sir, would you like two sesame cakes? The freshly baked donkey meat hot cakes are delicious!”
Zhang Yuan sniffed, nodded and said: “Then give me five to try.”
As he said that, he took out a piece of silver and threw it on the table: “No need to change.”
“Thank you, sir!”
The boss was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly put away the silver: “Please wait, I will bring it to you right away.”
The silver Zhang Yuan gave was three coins.
And five donkey meat hot cakes plus tea cost less than a hundred coins.
What a generous customer!
Not long after, the boss brought a plate of five donkey meat hot cakes.
Zhang Yuan reached out and grabbed one.
The skin of the hot cake was crispy, and the tender donkey meat and slightly salty sauce blended together, the taste was unexpectedly good.
I didn’t expect that there was such a delicacy in a roadside shop!
He was very impressed and finished one in two or three bites.
“Where are you running!”
Just as Zhang Yuan grabbed the second donkey meat hot pot and was about to eat it.
Suddenly, a roar came from afar.
The sound was like thunder, breathtaking!
Zhang Yuan and the people in the tea shed couldn’t help but look in the direction of the sound.
On the official road not far away, two men were desperately fleeing, and a man was chasing them from behind.
In just a moment, the two fleeing men were caught up.
The pursuer waved a big sword in his hand and knocked them to the ground in a few strokes, cursing at the same time: “You dare to cheat me, you really don’t know how to live or die, quickly hand over all the money you have!”
A man fell to the ground and wailed loudly: “Auntie, please spare my life, I really have no money!”
The pursuer was furious and kicked him hard: “You don’t have money to open your mother’s gambling game?”
“Ah!”
The man screamed miserably.
The other man struggled to crawl towards the tea shed, raising his hand and calling for help: “Help, help!”
As a result, the people in the tea shed turned their heads and pretended not to see or hear anything.
The most taboo thing in the world is to meddle in other people’s business.
What’s more, the person asking for help is a cheating gambler!
Even the monk closed his eyes and only said “Amitabha”.
“Help your mother!”
The next moment, the man who called for help was also stepped on.
He held his breath on the spot.
The pursuer swung his sword to cut off the other’s belt, swept his clothes left and right, and tried to find some valuables.
In the end, there was nothing.
“Pah!”
She spat unwillingly.
Then he came to the tea shed with a big sword in his hand.
At this time, Zhang Yuan saw the other person’s true face clearly.
This fierce and sturdy woman had disheveled hair and a slender figure. Her skin was dark and her eyes were fierce. Half of her face was covered with a purple-red birthmark, and there was a large black hairy mole on her left eye.
To be honest, Zhang Yuan had never seen a woman uglier than her in his life.
In comparison, the crude village women in Chenjia Village looked much more beautiful.
The fierce and ugly woman swept her eyes, and no one in the teahouse dared to look at her.
Including several Jianghu guests.
The fierce and ugly woman snorted coldly, and then sat down opposite Zhang Yuan in a dignified manner.
She put the big sword in her hand on the table and shouted: “Boss, give me a pot of cold tea!”
