C8

After they passed through the tavern, the two of them became vigilant. The wine in the tavern in the wasteland region was drank carefully while the food was carefully eaten.

"I really didn't expect that our first time in the martial arts world would be so depressing." The more he thought about it, the more sullen he became. He opened the bowl of water by the stream and took a sip. The waiter looked at the two weirdly, thinking to himself, 'Was there a need to look at the food these two bought?'

"How about I eat first? You be more alert tonight." As Tian Jue spoke, he began to eat, causing the gyrfalcon to swallow his saliva. The gyrfalcon humphed coldly and got up to go to the kitchen. He saw the restaurant and a few chefs eating dinner.

"I'll eat with you guys, pay for how much you eat." As the gyrfalcon spoke, the shop owner and the chef looked at him in surprise. One of the cooks stood up and gave him a seat.

The gyrfalcon wasn't being polite either. He sat down with a bowl and chopsticks and began to eat. The others could see what he was worried about, so they didn't refuse. They just thought he was very interesting.

"Aren't you afraid that what we eat will be poisonous, and that we have the antidote?" When the owner saw that the gyrfalcon was eating happily, he teased.

When the gyrfalcon heard this, he didn't think about it at all. He said with a bitter face, "I wouldn't be so unlucky, would I? I met you two before long."

These words made the staff in the restaurant burst out in laughter. One of the cooks said, "Haha, your little brother is interesting, but don't worry. The Unscrupulous Restaurant you mentioned is one of the few. We're all after money, so it doesn't hurt our lives."

After saying that, the chef looked at him weirdly. He also felt that what he said was not right.

However, the shop owner's words had reminded the gyrfalcon that it was not necessary for others to not poison their food. This way, they would feel even more powerless in the martial arts world. He suddenly felt that it was very chaotic and dangerous outside, but he, Hai Dongqing, was also not someone who was afraid of getting into trouble.

In fact, the shopkeeper was right. There were only a few people who wanted to steal money and murder others. It was bad luck to meet them once in a lifetime, but unfortunately, the two of them encountered this kind of thing the moment they stepped out of the door. However, being careful was still a good thing. Gradually, the two of them spent seven to eight days in peace.

After saying that, the two of them used up all their energy. They did not even see the shadow of a vicious person. When they thought back to that time in Ocean Viewing City, Tian Jue swore that he would never think of doing it again.

Tian Jue looked at the remaining copper coins in his pocket and looked at Hai Dongqing with a hidden bitterness. Hai Dongqing had his hands on his waist and his head was looking at the sky, a dogtail grass was in his mouth as he lightly walked away. In fact, he was looking at Tian Jue earlier, but seeing that Tian Jue had raised his head with an ugly expression, it seemed like he couldn't see me.

The two of them understood two problems after coming out for a few days. Walking in the martial arts world was too dangerous, and doing chivalry and righteousness also required money. The two of them felt extremely helpless. Disciples of other sects never worried about money when they went out. The two of them were second rate sect disciples of the Ocean Viewing Sect after all, so why were they living such a miserable life?

Just as the two were feeling extremely bitter and bitter, they suddenly heard a call for help. They looked at each other and smiled, and to be honest, the two did not expect that they would be so happy to hear someone calling for help.

The two of them ran towards the direction of the cry for help. Hiding in the grass, they saw a dozen bandits with knives in their hands surrounding a group of people and two carriages. Furthermore, the merchant's face was swollen and his nose was bruised. Several bloodied corpses were lying around him, and a bandit pointed at the merchant who was kneeling and viciously said, "Aren't you yelling quite fiercely? Try calling another one? "

"I don't dare, I don't dare." The merchant kowtowed as he spoke. Perhaps he was arrogant at times, but in the face of death, he was extremely humble. The bandit looked at the humble merchant in front of him, and grabbed his hair with a sense of playfulness, pulling him to the side of the corpse and said, "Bite off a piece of meat. Eat it and leave you with the money."

The merchant started to sob, but he actually bent his body closer to the bloody corpse. When the bandit saw this, he started to laugh. The other bandit also started to laugh, thinking that their boss really knew how to play.

Tian Jue could not bear to see this. He turned around to inform Hai Dongqing of his plan, but who knew that this fellow was already gone. Just as he was looking for Hai Dongqing's figure, he suddenly heard something.

"Shut up!" The dead cannot be desecrated! " After Tian Jue saw this, he held his forehead, but did not rush to come out.

"Where did this little brat come from? Didn't your family's elders tell you not to run around?" A small hill robber holding a knife slowly walked towards Hai Dongqing, his face full of malice.

"Disregarding human life and committing heinous acts, damn it! The He Clan, Bewildering Steps! " After the gyrfalcon finished speaking, he used the Phantom Shadow Steps to run towards the bandit who was walking towards him. When he saw him approaching, he shouted, "He Clan, assassinate him!"

The bandit was shocked at the speed of the gyrfalcon, shocked that he had taken his own life as a child, and died in shock. Hai Dongqing did not stop after killing the first bandit. She quickly ran to the next bandit and in the time it took for four breaths, two of the bandit became corpses.

The rest of the bandits reacted one by one, pouncing towards Hai Dongqing. The leader of the bandits knew some martial arts, and while Hai Dongqing was facing him, he used his blade to viciously slash at her. At this time, Tian Jue used a Bewildering Shadow to step out from behind the bandit boss, and stabbed the bandit boss in the heart without hesitation.

The bandit boss would never have thought that he would fall into the hands of these two children.

Not long after, the two of them took care of this group of bandits. Because of carelessness, the gyrfalcon's arm was injured and it couldn't stop bleeding. Fortunately, the merchant had brought some medicine and stopped the bleeding.

The two of them still lacked combat experience. Even though their individual skill was very high, they still lacked the strength to face a group battle. This time, if it was only the gyrfalcon alone, he would have lost to these merchants. Luckily, the gyrfalcon hadn't grown up and had immediately used his strongest martial arts, otherwise, he would have sustained more injuries. Seeing the bitter expression on the gyrfalcon's face, he would naturally not let go of this opportunity to mock him.

The gyrfalcon didn't expect it either. Although the bandits didn't have martial arts skills at the moment, they were not weak in combat, but he never understood the people who lived their lives on the edge of a knife. Killing was a small matter to them, but fighting was nothing to them.

The merchant and his group were naturally extremely grateful towards the two. The gyrfalcon whispered into Tian Jue's ear, "Why don't you take this opportunity to ask them for some money?"

"This isn't good, we are chivalrous." The corner of Tian Jue's mouth twitched as he whispered.

"In any case, there's no such thing as deceitful or unscrupulous. This fellow must have made quite a bit of money." Hai Dongqing held her arm and said indignantly. It was actually painful.

Tian Jue felt that Hai Dongqing's words made sense. Whatever this fellow did, he would always think of a good excuse. Usually, it was all done by him, so he decided to do it himself.

"Cough, cough!" Tian Jue walked in front of the merchants and coughed twice.

"Young Hero, feel free to instruct me if there's anything you need." The merchant immediately stood up and bowed to Tian Jue.

"If that's the case, then we two brothers won't have to deal with each other while we're on the road." After Tian Jue finished speaking, he gave the merchant a meaningful glance. The merchant thought that there was no difference between him and a bandit, but after thinking about it for a while, he smiled and said: "All of my goods are here, I only have so little money on me."

After saying that, the merchant took out a note worth a thousand taels of silver and a bag of broken silver. He held it with both hands towards Tian Jue as he looked at him in surprise.

"Hey hey, you misunderstand, aiya! That's not what we mean. " When the gyrfalcon saw this, he quickly ran over with his hands covering, pushing the merchant's hands back.

The merchant looked at the two of them in confusion. He really didn't understand what the two of them were playing at. The gyrfalcon rolled his eyes at Tian Jue and angrily said to the merchant, "When the two of us go out to do chivalry, we really don't have anything to do with each other. If you think of the kindness the two of us have done for you, you can give us two of us a little entanglement. If you don't want us to, we won't force you either."

Logically speaking, they didn't need to pay for their chivalry, but they needed money for it as well! It was also the fault of the two that they were insufficiently prepared to go out. Otherwise, they wouldn't have let others misunderstand them. Although the gyrfalcon understood this logic, he was unhappy that the merchant thought of him and Tian Jue that way. He pulled Tian Jue along with him and left.

The merchant seemed to have understood what was going on. The rest of the people believed the two: "Young Hero, don't go. You saved my life. I am just a worker. I don't have much money, so please don't mind me."

Seeing this, the others also started to dig out their own money.

The gyrfalcon knew that other than the merchants, the rest of them didn't have much money to work for the merchants, so he couldn't bear to take them. The gyrfalcon had taken a copper coin from each of them, and the merchant had lost some face.

Furthermore, he had initially misunderstood Hai Dongqing and seemed to have angered him, he did not know the background of the two, but after they had saved him and his family's goods, he took out a small bag of silver and walked over to the two, telling them to take out the one thousand taels of silver.

"I was thinking too much at the beginning. I hope the two young warriors won't take it to heart." The merchant said while half-bowing as he held the silver, but the gyrfalcon was still angry and did not intend to take it.

"Young Hero, take it. My master's heart isn't bad." A merchant beside him said.

"It's just that he's a bit stingy. It's not like he doesn't have money to hire two people for martial arts to deal with such a dangerous situation." Tian Jue added in his blade.

"Young Hero, you don't know that these sects and aristocratic families are asking for a sky-high price for the goods. Our goods are only getting a maximum of one to two hundred taels of silver, and the price they are offering us is at least that much." After all, every sect's aristocratic families had their own things to do, so sending people out was naturally not in the interests of fame. The two people of Hai Dongqing's group were different, they were just here to show their loyalty to the hero.

The gyrfalcon looked at the others, who nodded with a bitter face. Tian Jue could not help but sigh in his heart. The Central Plains had too many drawbacks.

In the end, the two of them still accepted the merchant's silver. The gyrfalcon weighed about two to three jin in his hand, making the two of them happy.
