You cultivate immortality, I cultivate merit

Chapter 528 Don’t Dare to Get Too Close
Shi Xiaoliu continued driving the carriage forward until he reached a fork in the road.

He sent a message to Shi Zelan and Xia Yu: "There are ambushes on both sides of the road. I will slow down the car and you drive the carriage to the front."

Shi Zelan and Xia Yu drove the horses forward at the same time, and Shi Xiaoliu fell behind.

"Kill, kill, kill."

A group of men in black rushed out from both sides of the road. When Shi Zelan saw them, she just wanted to cover her eyes. It was too unprofessional and too economical, and her face was exposed.

The host's family, who were sitting in the carriage, were already huddled together, covering their mouths in fear, not daring to make a sound.

Shi Zelan looked at the men in black running towards her and saw the swords in their hands. She took out a sword she had bought at random.

She looked at the man in black who rushed over with a smile and asked, "Do you have to kill him?"

The man in black was stunned for a moment, and Shi Zelan sighed, "I don't want to kill anyone, so you guys retreat."

Some of the men in black wanted to quit, but they took the lead and roared: "Don't believe what this little chicken says, kill him, kill him, go back and divide the money, and live a good life."

The man in black rushed over. Shi Zelan reached out and touched the horse's head soothingly. Then she smiled at the man in black, drew her sword, and with a flash of sword light, the sword in the black man's hand fell.

They crossed their arms and looked at Shi Zelan, listening to her sigh: "Let's go, I'm in a good mood right now, and I'm willing to give you a way out.

If you must seek death, I can help you do so."

The men in black picked up the sword that fell on the ground with trembling hands. Seeing that the smile on Shi Zelan's face was gone, they took a few steps back.

"Brother, let's go."

As they walked, they shouted at the man in black in the middle.

Shi Xiaoliu originally wanted to let go of the men in black who were trying to kill him, but after hearing the words of the men in black who were trying to stop Shi Zelan's carriage, his sword quickly pierced through the leader's shoulder bones on both sides, instantly destroying all his kung fu.

"If you want to seek revenge in the future, come find us brothers directly. If you accidentally hurt innocent people, no matter where you hide, we brothers will be able to find you and kill you."

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two did not want to have any life or death consequences in the secular world, so after the man in black escaped, they got on the carriage and drove on.

In the evening, they finally failed to reach the nearest town and could only stay in a dilapidated house on the side of the road.

Shi Xiaoliu and his two companions checked around and said to their host and companions, "This place is fine. Let's rest for one night and continue our journey tomorrow."

The host and his companions were overjoyed and expressed their gratitude to Shi Xiaoliu and the other two one by one.

The hostess cooked rice porridge and brought boiled eggs. She said to Shi Xiaoliu and the other two with a guilty conscience, "My benefactor, I'm sorry, these are all we have now."

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two reached out to take the things. Shi Xiaoliu said to the host’s wife, “Aunt, we have enough.”

The boss's wife wanted to say something but was dragged away by her boss.

He whispered, "The three benefactors are not ordinary people, so please don't meddle in other people's business."

It was dark, and Shi Xiaoliu and the other two sat directly outside the gate of the dilapidated courtyard. The host came out to meet them, and he rubbed his hands and said, "Benefactor, can you escort us for another day or two?"

After Shi Xiaoliu and the other two looked at each other, Shi Zelan asked, "Old man, where were you originally going?"

After the old man from the Dong family mentioned a place name, he explained: "My three benefactors, I didn't want to deceive you before.

But there are so many people and so many gossips, and our family, big and small, really can’t afford to be hurt.

The place we are going to is also near this place.”

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two nodded and said, "Okay, we haven't decided where to go yet, so we'll go with you." The host happily walked into the yard, and then joyful shouts were heard from the yard.

Shi Xiaoliu whispered to Shi Zelan and Xia Yu, "There are five or six people following us."

Shi Zelan couldn't help but sigh and said, "From the looks of the Dong family, they don't seem to be vicious people."

“Money can move people’s hearts.

His ancestors ran an inn in Wuming City and their business has always been good.

Now that the inn has changed hands, he has received another sum of money."

The next day, after Shi Xiaoliu and the other two asked their host for his opinion, they also asked their companions for their thoughts. They decided to bypass the town in front and go straight forward, trying to reach the place where their host wanted to go as soon as possible.

On the third night, they entered a town they were passing by and stayed directly in a simple inn in the city.

The host took out some money and prepared a banquet for Shi Xiaoliu and the other two.

However, Shi Xiaoliu and his two companions only picked out a few vegetarian dishes, and sent the rest of the dishes back to the host's family for tasting.

The boss asked Shi Xiaoliu anxiously, "My benefactor, is there anything I haven't done well enough?"

Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said, "The three of us brothers have been used to eating vegetarian food since we were young."

The owner finally felt relieved. He went back and said to his wife, "This is the first time in my life that I have met someone who is truly selfless."

The old woman listened to her boss's words, thought about it and said, "Why don't you ask for their address? When we get there, my daughters-in-law and I will make a few pairs of shoes for them, okay?"

"it is good.

But they won’t tell me where their home is.”

"Let's ask. Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, we can't accept such a great favor from these three people in vain."

On the evening of the fourth day, they had to stay in the suburbs again. This time everyone was used to it.

When Shi Xiaoliu and the other two were sitting together and talking, the people who were traveling with them were sitting far away. They admired Shi Xiaoliu and the other two very much, so they didn't dare to get too close.

The host walked up to Shi Xiaoliu and the other two, smiled and said something to them, then asked politely, "My three benefactors, where is your home?"

Shi Xiaoliu smiled and looked at the host: "Our home is far away."

The owner sighed and said, "My old woman is very good at making shoes. She wants to make three pairs of shoes for the three benefactors."

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two shook their heads. Shi Zelan smiled and said, "Thank you, old man. We accept your kindness, but we don't need the shoes.

It’s not easy for us to come out here, and this time we will be traveling outside for several years before returning home.”

"Have you ever married or had children?"

Shi Xiaoliu smiled and shook his head, saying, "We brothers are not very old. We plan to travel abroad for a few years and then return home to look for a marriage partner according to our parents' arrangements."

The host looked at the three of them, then thought for a moment and asked, "Do you need someone to do your laundry and cooking?"

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two shook their heads repeatedly. In the past two days, the look in the eyes of the grandson of the Dong family made them feel suspicious.

"Old man, when we brothers came out, we promised our family that we would do everything ourselves and would never ask anyone to help with chores."

There was a flash of disappointment in the boss's eyes, but he soon felt relieved.
