Be a Cartoonist In the Fairy World

Chapter 61 Unexpected branch

so awkward.

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

The words that were just spoken were instantly slapped in the face. This experience is simply sour.

At the same time, he was also curious as to who had the guts to rob 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 dumbfounded.

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

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

At this moment, Mu Chengan had already got off the carriage, and he was a little caught off guard after seeing the child clearly.

"I'm sorry, Master Mu, this kid came out suddenly..." the coachman apologized to Mu Chengan. He knew that Mu Chengan's status was unusual, the sudden braking he had just now had startled the people in the car, if he pursued it, he would be unable to eat and walk away.

This coachman is also pure in character, if this is some bullying coachman, he will run over this kid directly. Anyway, they are all bandits who robbed the way, and their death is in vain.

"It's okay." Mu Chengan didn't mean to blame him, but looked at the child instead, "Little brother, why are you here alone? It's not something you should do to rob the way halfway."

Du Ziyuan knew this would happen. This Mu Chengan's character was too rigid and serious, and he also strictly abided by etiquette. He was simply a textbook-like gentleman. But in his opinion, he is actually an elm-headed man who doesn't know how to adapt at all, and he doesn't know how Penglai Jianzong taught him.

If it were him instead, although it wouldn't do anything to the kid, it would mean driving him away and continuing on his way. How could he meddle in other people's business like Mu Chengan did to educate others. Of course, maybe if it's a cute little lolita.

The little boy was obviously robbing for the first time, and his feet were still shaking. Seeing Mu Chengan approaching him, he panicked even more, waved the kitchen knife in his hand wildly and shouted: "Don't, don't talk nonsense, quickly hand over the money! Otherwise, I won't be polite!"

As a result, he accidentally slipped his hand and the kitchen knife flew out.

The air suddenly became quiet.

The little boy stared blankly at the people in the carriage and Mu Chengan, froze there not knowing what to do.

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

Unexpectedly, the little boy suddenly yelled: "Ah!" Immediately afterwards, he knelt down in front of Mu Chengan with lightning speed, which was called smooth.

"Master, please forgive me, I don't dare anymore, please forgive me..."

Seeing this guy kowtow, Du Ziyuan complained, "Is this guy here to be funny?"

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

The little boy ignored him, and kowtowed on his own. Mu Chengan persuaded him for a long time before he calmed down. After careful questioning, he found out that his grandfather was sick, but his family had no money to hire a doctor, and he couldn't get any money when he was young, so he had no choice but to think of robbery. It's a pity that he is obviously not this material.

"This is too bloody." Du Ziyuan felt bored after hearing what this guy said. Anyway, if you give him some money, you can finish the job, and you thought there would be something interesting to unfold.

However, just as he was thinking this way, a system prompt suddenly popped up.

"Side task trigger: Solve the difficulties in the youth village."

"Mission reward: +1 for the number of lottery draws for primary props, +1 for primary temporary assistants (7 days)."

"The side mission is an optional mode. If you refuse it, the mission will disappear and cannot be triggered again."

"Please select: Accept/Reject?"

【Um? Mission triggered? 】Du Ziyuan regained his spirits immediately, chose to accept and looked outside the carriage.

Mu Chengan had already given the little boy 10 taels of silver to take back to see his grandfather. He didn't dare to give too much, for fear of bringing disaster to the child. The little boy was so excited that he almost knelt down to kowtow to him again, but was stopped by Mu Chengan.

At this moment, Du Ziyuan, who was lying on the window of the car, suddenly said, "Hey, little brother, can you really save your grandpa just by giving you money?"

Mu Chengan looked at Du Ziyuan suspiciously, while the little boy was shocked: "Of course, if I have money, I can ask a doctor to treat grandpa."

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

"Thank you." As if being pardoned, the little boy immediately ran into a small fork beside the official road with the money.

When he was almost far away, Du Ziyuan said to the driver: "Master Wang, can I trouble you to follow that kid?"

"Brother Du, why are you doing this?" Mu Chengan had already returned to the car at this time, looking at Du Ziyuan puzzledly, his sudden questioning behavior just now was very strange.

At this time, the coachman followed Du Ziyuan's words. The side road was not too wide, but it was barely enough to accommodate the carriage. He followed the little boy from a distance, and he was not afraid of being lost.

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 it for a while, and his memory is still very strong: "He held the silver I gave him in one hand, and kept touching that hand with the other hand."

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

"You mean he's hiding something from us?" Mu Chengan said in surprise.

Du Ziyuan nodded: "I think so, the thing about his grandfather's illness may be true, but giving him money obviously won't completely solve the problem."

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

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

Xia Wuyi nodded with deep sympathy, he was forced by Du Ziyuan's ability to put on the first women's clothing in his life, until now, he has not touched men's clothing for an indefinitely long time. It's the same with Xiao Jin. At the beginning, she wanted to lie to Du Ziyuan, but she was caught out in an instant and became his maid.

A group of people followed the little boy all the way forward. The little boy's feet were not fast, and it took more than three hours to rush back to his village after stopping and resting.
