Experience of living in a chaotic world of demons

The matter was done in one day, which was unexpectedly smooth.

The next day, Gu Erniu took Gu Sheng around the city. In addition to listening to books, he also bought some small things for his wife and children to bring back.

It was then that Gu Sheng realized.

Canghe County was not as peaceful and prosperous as he saw when he entered the city that day.

In some remote alleys, there were many skinny people, begging, stealing, and even fighting in the streets.

"Sure enough, the bright and beautiful is only part of it, and there is a dark side everywhere."

Gu Sheng was secretly shocked, knowing that there were many gangs in the city, and the people at the bottom did not live so well.

In order not to cause trouble, Gu Sheng simply stayed at home and found a place in the side yard to practice archery.

Now the proficiency of perfect archery has reached about 10%. If you want to break through to perfection as soon as possible, you need to work hard day by day.

At night on the third day.

Gu Dajiang and his son came back in a hurry. Although they were restrained, Gu Sheng still felt a sense of joy from Gu Xiaojiang.

These days.

Both father and son go out early and come back late, which makes Gu Sheng a little curious about what they do when they go out.

However, he suppressed his curiosity very well. It is better not to ask about some things, so as not to cause trouble.

That night.

Gu Renxu announced that the purchase was completed and he would return to the village tomorrow. Many villagers could not help but show their reluctance.

Canghe County is undoubtedly a world apart from Gujiazhuang.

Fortunately, Gu Sheng has a calm mentality. If he is not capable enough, staying in the city is asking for trouble. Maybe he will be eaten by others even with skin and bones.

It is better to develop slowly in Gujiazhuang first.

…

The next day.

It was just dawn.

The convoy of Gujiazhuang slowly drove out of Canghe County. The carts were empty when they came, but they were full when they returned. Most of them were daily necessities that were not available in the village. This is also the focus of each purchase.

The donkey carts were full, so Gu Sheng and his companions could only walk.

They came faster, but it would take until sunset to reach Gujiazhuang. The villagers had different expressions, but most of them were happy and told each other what they had seen and heard in the city in the past few days.

However, Gu Sheng keenly discovered that several villagers were missing.

He knew.

These people might have deliberately taken this opportunity to stay in the city, or they might have been kidnapped.

Gu Renxu's expression did not change at all, and he did not wait there. He was used to it. This happened every time he entered the city, and he could not look for them one by one.

"It seems... a warrior is missing too?"

Gu Sheng observed very carefully, and his intuition told him that the departure of this warrior was related to what Gu Dajiang had been busy with in the past few days.

He was startled and secretly alert.

The convoy moved forward.

No one looked particularly nervous.

They encountered bandits when they came, that is, they had some twists and turns when they passed Mangniu Mountain, so it was naturally a smooth journey back.

The sun gradually rose, and the bleak autumn wind could not stop the porters from sweating.

The convoy passed Mangniu Mountain.

Everyone was talking in low voices while walking, and some were still immersed in the afterglow of the city, especially the hunters who went to the brothels, each of them looked wild, with ambiguous smiles, and looked a little absent-minded.

Suddenly.

A rough laugh sounded from the forest, startling everyone.

"Brother Gu Dajiang, what a coincidence, we meet again."

Gu Sheng looked intently.

He saw a sturdy man carrying a mace lazily walking out, and the bandits behind him holding swords and strong bows all looked at this side playfully.

Gu Dajiang frowned, then forced a smile and clasped his fists and said:

"It turned out to be Leader Wang Chong, it was a coincidence, I accidentally disturbed you brothers, please forgive me, our Gujiazhuang convoy will be there soon."

He clasped his fists again to apologize, and then stretched out his hand to call everyone to go over quickly.

Faced with such fierce mountain bandits that could make Gu Dajiang surrender, the villagers of Gujiazhuang did not even dare to raise their heads and immediately sped up.

However.

Wang Chong pressed down with his mace and blocked the way.

Gu Dajiang's heart sank, his face looked a little ugly, and he said:

"Brother Wang Chong, what do you mean? We have paid the toll when we came here. According to the rules, brothers should let us go when we go back."

Wang Chong smiled, his clothes half open, revealing his strong chest muscles and chest hair. His muscles trembled during his laughter, and there was an indescribable sense of oppression.

"Rules? I don't care what the rules were here before. Since I, Wang Chong, am here, you have to follow my rules in the future!"

"In our Yunzhou, tolls are required for both round trips!"

Gu Xiaojiang was furious, and finally couldn't help but shouted coldly:

"We don't have this rule in Canghe County. My father will give you three points, don't push it too far!"

Gu Dajiang's expression changed slightly, and he quickly protected Gu Xiaojiang behind him.

Wang Chong glared with his tiger eyes, and a bloody aura came over him.

"How dare a young boy who is still wet behind the ears be so presumptuous!"

"My son is ignorant. I apologize to Commander Wang on his behalf."

Gu Dajiang said, holding back his anger.

"It's just that we don't have such rules in Canghe County."

"So, brother Dajiang doesn't want to make friends with me, Wang Chong?"

Wang Chong's eyes gradually narrowed, and a dangerous light emerged. He waved his hand slightly, and the sound of bowstrings being pulled came from behind him.

The warriors and hunters on the Gujiazhuang side suddenly tensed up, holding their weapons tightly, and asked the villagers to hide behind the bunkers.

Gu Sheng, who had been paying attention to the situation, had a bowstring in his hand that was already full of moons, with an arrow on it. If the situation was not right, he could shoot a meteor arrow in an instant.

Gu Dajiang was furious.

This old farmer-like man had always acted steadily, but now he was being ridden on his head and shitting, and he was on the verge of exploding.

But when he thought of the few blood-strengthening pills he carried with him.

His anger was immediately released.

"The blood-strengthening pills cannot be lost. Be submissive first, and then call King Kong to gather the warriors in the village. We must make this unruly villain pay the price!"

He was not sure if he really fought, and the key was that his son was by his side, which became his weakness.

The atmosphere was heavy and tense.

The next moment, they were going to meet with swords, and everyone's nerves were tense.

The villagers were even more panicked and felt that the sky was about to fall.

Gu Sheng touched the three arrows smeared with black blood powder on his back, and his heart was much more stable, but he still stared at the opposite side, looking for a suitable target to attack.

This depressing atmosphere enveloped them.

For a long time.

Gu Dajiang finally let out a long breath, his voice heavy and a little hoarse.

"Okay! Today I, Gu Dajiang, will make friends with Chief Wang Chong. It's still one hundred taels. Please have a drink, all of you heroes."

He didn't say anything harsh. It was the most unwise to say harsh words at this time. Instead, it would easily anger the other side. After gathering a good number of people, we'll see who will have the last laugh!

Gu Renxu handed over one hundred taels. It was the first time he met such a difficult mountain bandit, and he felt a little uneasy.

Wang Chong's men took it behind him.

He raised his eyebrows and sneered.

"One hundred taels is the price when we came here. You have so many more goods, and you have to collect tolls for the goods. Add another fifty taels!"
