Chapter 26: Evil Forces Incense Burner
"Those old guys seemed to recognize who I was."
Gu Sanqiu began to think about what went wrong, and then turned his attention to the several silver bills he took out.
"Oh my god, it can't be this thing."
Gu Sanqiu finally realized where he had made a mistake: "Damn it, these guys in Minlin probably barter most of the time, no one would always have such a large amount of silver notes on hand."
"Those old guys have sharp eyes. They must have figured out long ago that my banknotes are not the kind that are stored in the storage room all year round."
"Then combine the talisman paper and the elixir you took out..."
Gu Sanqiu immediately realized his mistake: "Damn, it seems that I shouldn't do cash transactions with them next time."
"But even though these guys are playing their own games behind closed doors, many of them know what they look like."
Gu Sanqiu touched his face subconsciously: "I don't want to be surrounded by a bunch of strange people when I go to trade again."
Sitting in the simple version of the self-made hovercraft, Gu Sanqiu is not worried about other problems now. The most important goal of this trip has been achieved. What he is considering now is how to happily take away those people who are persistently chasing him.
"How about killing them all and boosting the sales of Wangsheng Hall?"
After silently calculating the time, Gu Sanqiu shook his head. It was not the end of the year yet, so such things to boost performance were not acceptable.
Although we are in the wild, if we kill all those guys, it doesn't mean we will no longer live in Liyue, so we still have to save face for the official.
"We can't kill them. If we catch them all and hand them over to the Seven Stars, without a reasonable excuse, these guys will most likely be released without charge, and at most they will be put in solitary confinement for two or three days."
Gu Sanqiu only has one mouth. If those guys don't take action at that time, even if he is sure that they want to do something bad to him, his reasons will definitely not stand up in the face of so many mouths.
There must be a lot of excuses such as "respect for the incense burner" and "spontaneous protection ended up being misunderstood".
Although some people's IQ may not be high enough, the IQs of those guys are definitely high enough, and all kinds of contingency plans must have been prepared.
Of course, for them, the most perfect scenario would be that Gu Sanqiu was beaten to death in the wild, his ashes were eaten by various wild beasts, or he was simply burned to ashes by Qianqianhua.
"We can't kill them, and it's hard to catch them either. So the question is, what should we do with these guys?"
He is not a good-tempered person, or even if he is an honest person with a good temper, he will probably be furious if he is played the ghost-catching game like this.
“Got it!”
Gu Sanqiu glanced at the cart under him, and a slightly absurd idea, but extremely suitable for the current situation, appeared in his mind.
"Hey, Team 3, please report the information. Have you found that guy?"
"Hey, do you really think they'll tell us if they find it? Shouldn't we just find an opportunity to rush over and kill them beforehand to collect the reward?"
"Bullshit, I've already told them that the young man is very well hidden. Ordinary people are no match for him."
In a makeshift camp, several people with gray and black badges around their necks were tied up and trembling as they watched their camp being appropriated by a group of people in different clothes.
What frightened them the most was not the people who were talking loudly, but a muscular monster next to them who was looking at them with a greedy look.
"Okay, we're still on a mission in broad daylight, don't think about those weird things in your head. When you catch that guy, not every man will be able to be hugged by you."
"Hehe, that's true."
The muscular monster looked at the people tied up in front of him with a strange look.
"But what I want to know is, will the people in the treasure-stealing group be more stubborn and give me the pleasure of finally conquering them?"
After these words were spoken, the faces of the men next to him suddenly changed, and they all stepped back a long way at the same time.
Stay away from this weirdo!
"It's very strange. Several teams should have come back to report the situation just now, but now there is no sound from them."
The people in the tent frowned: "Those teams are responsible for different directions. Even if they found Gu Sanqiu's trace, it is impossible for these people to find it at the same time ."
"Let me tell you why."
A hearty laugh came from not far away, followed by a series of muffled sounds, and Gu Sanqiu's figure appeared in front of everyone.
However, all these people looked serious, because in front of Gu Sanqiu and the cart were "drivers" with ropes on their backs and bruised faces.
And these driver are none other than the team members who have not returned for a long time!
"How dare a dignified incense burner do such an insulting act?"
"Hehe, so many people surrounded me and killed me alone. The fact that I didn't kill all of you proves that I am a merciful person."
"Haha, what a joke! How dare you show up in front of us with such fanfare? Do you think this is Liyue Harbor? We can fully demonstrate our strength in the wild!"
The sudden escalation of the tone at the end was the switch for action, and everyone pounced towards Gu Sanqiu like hyenas moving in an orderly manner.
Various weapons flashed coldly, and various hidden weapons glowed dimly, but Gu Sanqiu, who was sitting on the cart, remained unmoved.
“This is actually what I wanted to say.”
"You actually said something so funny and impressive that you can show off your abilities in public first."
Gu Sanqiu's face suddenly drooped: "It seems that I have to learn the skill of answering questions quickly, which can easily attract hatred."
boom!
Endless roots broke out of the ground and began to whip like crazy. Big trees grew hands and feet and punched and kicked the surrounding enemies. Some trees even grew roots that looked like cages, locking up the enemies with broken bones.
"Although it won't have much effect if I say it now, I still want to say it."
Gu Sanqiu looked at the green plants that were rampant among the crowd and said, "Outdoors is also a stage where I can perform."
o(＊￣︶￣＊)o
Okay, I'm happy.
"Thank me. I will show mercy and bring those of you who got lost in Minlin back to Liyue Harbor."
Looking at the prisoners crammed into the small cage, Gu Sanqiu smiled.
"From another perspective, you are lucky after all. Even though it is a bit crowded, at least you have a seat ticket."
"As for these guys, they didn't have such good luck."
"In ancient times, arrogant people sailed on land. Today, I will try to see what's fun about pulling a cart by human power."
"Pray, pray that your companions will not die of exhaustion before returning to Liyue Harbor. Otherwise, even if you break your arms and legs, you must pull the cart. Even if you just crawl, you must die of exhaustion."
Gu Sanqiu sneered: "Or, you can work harder in the cage, kill a few people and cover yourself up, maybe I won't notice you?"
