I travel through the heavens as a human being

Chapter 65
After driving away the town residents, Xu Yang found the shop owner and his daughter in the woodshed that was boarded up outside.

Fortunately, judging from the appearance of the two of them, there were no injuries, so they probably were not abused.

When the shop owner saw that it was Xu Yang who opened the door, he immediately asked in surprise:

"My benefactor, why are you back?"

"What happened when I came back? Didn't I tell you last night that I would come back!"

"This...this, you shouldn't come back after you left!"

Facing Xu Yang's answer, the store owner didn't know what to say for a moment. This was completely different from what he imagined.

Xu Yang saw that the shop owner was just thinking in a daze, so he pulled him out of the woodshed and said:
"If I don't come back, will you be imprisoned by them and then handed over to horse thieves?"

The shop owner, who was brought back to his senses by Xu Yang's actions, immediately lowered his head after hearing Xu Yang's question. After sighing, he said in a lonely voice:

"Oh, this is the fate of us poor people."

"What about your daughter?"

Facing Xu Yang's questioning, the lonely shop owner became even more lonely at this time and didn't know how to answer.

But at this moment, the shop owner’s daughter, who had just walked out of the woodshed, said categorically:
"I'm ready. As long as they hand me over, I will commit suicide immediately."

Xu Yang turned his head and glanced at the girl in surprise when he heard this. From her firm eyes, he understood that what the girl said was true. When the time comes, she would really do that.

"Okay, I'm responsible for everything. You guys, come out first and see if anything is missing at home."

After Xu Yang comforted him, he turned around to pack his luggage, but when he took steps, he didn't forget to turn around and say,
"By the way, go get ready. Let's go together at noon."

"···Um!"

After hearing Xu Yang's words, the shop owner's face froze. After thinking for a while, he made up his mind and agreed.

Obviously, he had thought clearly. After such an incident, there was an irreparable gap between the father and daughter and the residents of the town.

Rather than staying here and continuing to be ignored, it's better to find a place to start over.

After a while, when Xu Yang saw the shop owner again, he saw the father and daughter each carrying a small bundle, standing in the yard waiting for Xu Yang with sad and angry expressions.

Obviously, the guy who wanted to take away the house must have been looted by the residents.

Regarding this situation, Xu Yang cursed secretly in his heart and then comforted him:
"Don't worry, I've already discussed it with them, and they will compensate you with 100 taels of silver at noon."

When Xu Yang said "discuss" and "compensate", he also deliberately emphasized his tone.

But even if Xu Yang said this, the store owner still didn't believe it:
"They really will?"

There was a strong suspicion in the shop owner's eyes. He had been rooted in the town for many years and knew the virtues of the local people. Money was their lifeblood.

"They will definitely give it."

When he said this, Xu Yang's palm gently stroked the hilt of the sword, and a coldness flashed in his eyes.

If he couldn't see the silver at noon, he didn't mind letting these people see the blood.

But thinking about it, this kind of thing shouldn't happen, because he had already heard noises in the distance. It was obvious that the residents were quarreling over money.

When he heard the noise and finally calmed down, Xu Yang knew that things should be settled.

And time seemed a bit long in the waiting process.During this period, the shop owner cooked the meat that the people had cooked in the pot again and made breakfast and lunch. Some of it was roasted and dried to make dry food for easy consumption on the road.

When the time approached noon, Xu Yang's ears twitched, a smile appeared on his face, and he ordered to the shop owner who was still cleaning up:
"Go open the door."

"Ugh."

The shop owner didn't have any doubts about Xu Yang's words. He simply reassured Azabu and opened the door of the hotel. At a glance, he saw the mayor walking from a distance and the residents following him.

"Hero, we sent the money."

When they arrived at the door of the hotel, the director did not go in directly. Instead, he stood outside the door, shouted something inside, and put the bag on his shoulder on the ground. There was a crashing sound inside.

"Ah, very good."

Xu Yang also appeared at the door at the right time, came to Li Chang, kicked up the more than 30 kilograms heavy bag with his feet, held it, and patted Li Chang's shoulder hard with the other hand. , making him grin in pain.

"You did a good job. You can go back. I wiped out the Five Tigers Village last night. If you don't believe me, go find someone to see it."

After Xu Yang dropped such light words, he called the shop owner and said:
"Lao Li, go call your daughter. It's time for us to leave."

The residents, who had not yet recovered from Xu Yang's previous words, took a collective step forward when they heard the news that Xu Yang and the shop owner's family were leaving.

But before they could speak, Xu Yang glared at them over there, unleashing his murderous intent, which made these people shudder, and they swallowed the words that reached their mouths.

Xu Yang knew that they didn't believe his words and were unwilling to take them away by himself.

But Xu Yang never needed their approval.

Even though the silver looted from Wuhu Village carried on the horseback could be used as evidence, Xu Yang still didn't want to show it to these people, just to make them worry for a while longer.

Under Xu Yang's shock, these people could only watch Xu Yang take the people away and leave the town.

The head of the village looked gloomy at this time, and his figure became more stooped, as if he had aged a lot. At this time, he couldn't help praying to the gods and Buddhas in the sky, hoping that what Xu Yang said was true, and Wuhu Village Really wiped out.

If Xu Yang deceived them, no one knew how furious the residents would be after losing both their lives and property, and what they would do.

Up until this moment, the chief had not reflected on what they had done before. Was it really right?

But all of this has nothing to do with Xu Yang who left the town. It just wants these people to have a long memory. As for the village chief, I am afraid he will be plagued by illness from now on.

Because when he was collecting cash, the few pats on his shoulders had injected internal energy into his acupuncture points. If those internal forces were not dissipated, it would cause qi stagnation and blood stasis near the acupoints, leading to constant injuries all over his body.

It can be said that this is the knowledge Xu Yang learned from those medical books, but he is just using it in reverse.

On the way out of the town, Xu Yang took out 100 taels of silver from his pocket and gave it to the shop owner:

"This money is for you."

The shop owner declined a few words, but Xu Yang still forced him to accept it.

The three of them went straight to the county town, where the shop owner planned to open a small restaurant. After all, he had been working in restaurants for half his life and he had no other skills.

Xu Yang, on the other hand, needs to exchange the money for banknotes and continue his journey.

After arriving at the county seat, the three of them separated and went about their own business.

"Girl, stop looking, we are not from the same world as him."
