The Eternals Who Travel the Worlds

Inside a dilapidated shop.

Lu Yan opened his eyes drowsily and saw soldiers filing in one after another. He was a little dazed.

During the action, the metallic clang of armor clashing brought with it a somewhat chilling air.

If it were ordinary people, they would probably be scared and stay where they are.

However, Lu Yan didn't feel anything. He was still lying on the wicker chair, not even bothering to sit up. He just watched every move of these soldiers calmly.

This confident look made these soldiers feel strange.

In order to show the majesty of the army, a leading general said solemnly: "Stand up!"

"anything?"

Lu Yan stretched out and said calmly.

"Are you the owner of this shop?"

"Yes."

After confirmation, the general winked, and two soldiers stood up and lifted Lu Yan up from the wicker chair.

He didn't resist much, otherwise under normal circumstances, these two ordinary soldiers wouldn't even be able to move him.

"I'm afraid we have to trouble you to come with us."

Jiang Qingyuan briefly explained to Lu Yan, then turned around and said coldly: "Take it away!"

"Wait a moment."

Lu Yan still had a slow tone.

"I sell books here. If you can buy all the books, I wouldn't mind coming with you."

When the general heard this, he laughed angrily.

He has never seen such an arrogant prisoner: "You may not be fully aware of your situation."

Lu Yan easily freed his hands and chuckled, "I know very well."

After saying this, the topic suddenly changed and his tone became calmer.

"Your way of doing things makes it difficult for me..."

He glanced around and continued to add: "Thirteen people. Originally, this shop was so dilapidated that there were no customers. What if it is stained with blood again and scares away the few customers?"

"Besides, I'm not good at handling corpses. It would be too cruel to ask the little girl next door to help throw away corpses."

The general frowned, as if he didn't quite understand what Lu Yan meant.

He said coldly: "There's no point in pretending to be stupid. Why are you still standing there in a daze? Hurry up and take the person back to life!"

In the second half of the sentence, the general was speaking to these soldiers.

Lu Yan shook his head helplessly.

In just a few seconds, the store fell into silence.

Lu Yan threw the lifeless soldiers out of the store door like garbage.

It is human nature to watch the excitement, and a circle of people eating melons had already formed outside the street.

After seeing these soldiers being thrown out, some timid people screamed in surprise.

There were several soldiers outside maintaining order while waiting.

Seeing this scene at this time, everyone fell into a daze.

Bang~

After throwing out the last body, Lu Yan took out his ears.

"In order not to get blood everywhere, I have tried to control the intensity as much as possible."

However, because the sound could not be transmitted, in the eyes of the onlookers, Lu Yan just opened his mouth but did not make any sound.

No one could guess what he said. They could only guess that it was some chilling threatening words.

The people who were watching dispersed in a hurry, and the few remaining soldiers did not have the courage to continue to deal with Lu Yan, so they turned around and ran away in panic.

Lu Yan leaned against the shop door and sighed quietly after seeing this scene.

"It looks like there won't be any guests coming today."

After sighing briefly, Lu Yan lay back on the wicker chair that could fall apart at any time.

Strangely enough, this wicker chair looks obviously worn out, but it is much stronger than expected.

…

Many times, things happen regardless of human will.

Just as Lu Yan thought that if something like this happened in front of the store today, no more customers would come.

However, the fact is that an old man wearing official robes entered the store alone.

Lu Yan collapsed on the wicker chair and covered his face with an open book.

He said casually: "Didn't you see those corpses in front of the store?"

"Saw."

The old man didn't care whether Lu Yan looked at him or not, and bowed his hands to him.

Lu Yan took off the book covering his face, sat up, and looked thoughtfully at the old man in front of him.

The life perception provided by Symmetra told him that this old man was not some hidden master, but a pure ordinary person.

"You are quite brave."

Lu Yan didn't quite understand.

This old man obviously holds a high position, but he dares to come to his shop after something like this happened, and he is not afraid of killing him?

"The store will never do anything to the customers, right? I just come here to buy books."

The old man was very calm.

In fact, he was not stupid enough to put himself in danger.

Before coming here, he had investigated this store.

From the time he opened for business until now, the store owner has never shown his extraordinary abilities. Even if the customers cursed at him, he would not deliberately embarrass him.

Taken together, it seems that the owner of this shop is not a cruel and murderous person.

So Bigan wanted to find out more and avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

Lu Yan suddenly laughed, as if he had seen something interesting, and said, "Okay, one hundred taels of silver for a book, pick whatever you want."

"Uh...what?"

Bigan was about to walk over and look at the books. After hearing Lu Yan's words, he froze on the spot.

"One hundred taels of silver per book, is there any problem?"

Lu Yan repeated it again.

Bigan took a deep breath before forcing down the emotions in his heart.

He really wanted to ask, are the pages of your book made of gold? Where did you get the courage to sell it for such a high price?

Bigan's status was indeed very high. He was the younger brother of Emperor Yi of Shang Dynasty and the uncle of Emperor Xin.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he was an important minister of the Yin and Shang royal families.

Even though he has a high status, he is actually not wealthy.

If you have money, you should either give it to the people or use it to develop the country. You really won't be able to get so much money for a while.

He turned towards Lu Yan and cupped his hands again and said, "I'll do it, old master."

Lu Yan raised his eyebrows.

"how?"

Bigan seemed a little embarrassed to say it. He hesitated for a moment before making up his mind and said: "May I ask the store if I can give it on credit?"

"No, just pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand."

Lu Yan spoke with a smile.

In his world, he knew Bigan.

I also admire the old man who prayed for the people, but in this world of experience, the two of them have no friendship.

Bigan was a little dazed.

In Chaoge City, this was the first time he failed to scan his face.

"The store owner...that's what he said."

After saying that, Bigan turned around and left. He didn't know whether he was going back to get the money or what he was doing.

Lu Yan didn't get up to stop him, he just covered his head with the book again and continued to close his eyes and meditate.
