Yuan Jing and the others were currently treating the injured monks. This time, a total of seven monks were injured. If it weren't for Zhao Hai's timely rescue, then more people would've been injured. Fortunately, these injuries were only flesh wounds. As long as they were treated with medicine, they could be cured.
Zhao Hai also took out some medicine and applied it to the wounds of the monks. Then he had them rest on the side. There was still some time before dawn, so they could rest for a while.
After treating the wounds of the monks, Yuan Jing and the others turned their attention to the bodies of the black-robed men. Yuan Jing looked at the bodies of the black-robed men and then quickly walked over. Then he tore off the face mask of one of the black-robed men. Upon seeing the face mask, Yuan Jing couldn't help but coldly snort.
Zhao Hai went to Yuan Jing's side and said, "Amitabha. Master Yuan Jing, you're angry. This is a taboo for Buddhist Cultivators. What's wrong? Do you know him? "
When Yuan Jing heard Zhao Hai, he couldn't help but let out a long breath. Then he whispered a Buddhist prayer and said, "Amitabha. Yes, this person is one of the people who followed Fat Wolf. He can be considered a member of Fat Wolf's team. However, Fat Wolf's team only has 30 people. This time, they actually brought so many people. I want to see who the others are." Then Yuan Jing tore off the face masks of the black-robed men.
After looking at the corpses of the black-robed men, Yuan Jing couldn't help but whisper, "Amitabha, they're all ordinary Rogue Cultivators. It seems like Fat Wolf summoned them. Master Jing Hai, what do you think we should do next? How do we deal with these corpses? "
Zhao Hai didn't think that Yuan Jing would discuss with him. This made him realize that his strength has been recognized by Yuan Jing and the others. Yuan Jing even regarded him as an important member of the team. After thinking for a moment, Zhao Hai said, "Let's bury their corpses. Let's finish the mission first."
Yuan Jing nodded and said, "Alright, let's collect their belongings. We can buy some crystals when we return to Sealed Sword City. We will depart at dawn." Zhao Hai and the others nodded. Then they collected all the things on the black-clothed men. Then they carried the black-clothed men into the forest and found a place to bury them.
After everything was done, the sky began to brighten. Zhao Hai began to prepare breakfast. Because there were several wounded people, Zhao Hai specially prepared some medicinal materials for breakfast. Shopkeeper Wu and the others were not in the mood to make breakfast because of the attack, so they ate with Zhao Hai.
After breakfast, Yuan Jing let the injured monks sit on the cart to replace the workers who had been killed. Everyone moved forward.
This time, they were even more careful. Even during the day, they were still paying attention to their surroundings. However, the next few days were very safe. They didn't encounter any attacks. They didn't know where Fat Wolf and the others went, but in any case, no one attacked them.
Finally, on the tenth day after they left Sealed Sword City, they entered Xunshan City. Xunshan City was a medium-sized city, but because it was close to the river, it was very prosperous.
Although the Spirit Mountain Trading Company was an organization that spread throughout the continent, their shop wasn't very big. Moreover, the things they sold weren't high grade goods, but some necessities for low level cultivators. Because of this, the Spirit Mountain Trading Company's area in Xunshan City wasn't very big, it was more like a grocery store. Perhaps it was because of this that Shopkeeper Wu was very serious about the matter of crystal stones.
After Zhao Hai and the others sent Shopkeeper Wu and the others to the backyard of the store, Yuan Jing directly went to Shopkeeper Wu to settle the bill. Shopkeeper Wu didn't give them more crystal stones. Although Yuan Jing's escort mission caused Shopkeeper Wu's group to die, there were no additional losses. Therefore, Shopkeeper Wu didn't deduct their money. Both sides just completed an ordinary transaction. For people like Zhao Hai and the others, as long as they safely delivered the goods, the mission was considered completed. As for how many people you defeated, it had nothing to do with the employer. After all, this was an escort mission. If it was really that safe, then there would be no need to hire guards.
After Yuan Jing settled the bill with Shopkeeper Wu, the group left the Spirit Mountain Trading Company's branch in Xunshan City. Then Yuan Jing asked Zhao Hai and the others to wait for him in a small store before he went out.
The store that Zhao Hai and the others were staying in could be said to be one of the worst stores in the city. However, it provided food and accommodation. They ate ordinary meals and stayed in a shared room. Of course, the price was also very cheap.
Zhao's group of twenty people lived in the store for a day, and it only cost them a second-class crystal stone. Moreover, it was free for three meals. This price was really cheap.
Zhao Hai also knew what Yuan Jing was going to do. He must have gone to accept a mission. They came to Xunshan City to complete a mission. If they just went back like this, then it would be a waste. Therefore, Yuan Jing should want to accept a mission to return to Sealed Sword City. This way, not only would they be able to return to Sealed Sword City, they would also be able to earn more crystal stones.
Zhao Hai also had to admit that Yuan Jing was very talented in this aspect. If he wasn't a Buddhist Cultivator, then he might have become a good merchant.
Zhao Hai originally thought that they would wait here for two days. Who would have thought that Yuan Jing would come back in the afternoon. When he came back, he immediately invited Zhao Hai and the others to the dining room. After everyone sat down, Yuan Jing looked at Zhao Hai and the others and said, "This time, our luck is good. There's a small caravan heading to Sealed Sword City. However, they only have ten carts and are only willing to pay five second-grade crystals per person. However, they can provide us with food and accommodation. Moreover, their standard isn't lower than our current place. What do you think?"
Zhao Hai looked at the others, then he said, "I think we should go back. Although the reward this time is low, don't forget that there aren't as many opportunities here as in Sealed Sword City. We need to return to Sealed Sword City as soon as possible in order to have more opportunities. Moreover, we don't have any guarantee of safety here. Some of our masters were injured this time, they need to go back and rest as soon as possible. Because of this, we can't have a good rest in Xun Mountain City. Therefore, I agree that we should go back."
The other monks nodded as well. Although the injured monks were now much better, they didn't object. Although their injuries weren't heavy, they still needed to rest for a while before they could recover to their peak state. Although there were a lot of pills in the Sword Spirit Realm that could heal injuries in a short time, these pills were very expensive. It was impossible for them to afford them.
For rogue cultivators like them, the medicinal pills they used were the cheapest kind. The medicine they used was like the Golden Sore Medicine. Although it could stop bleeding, the effect was not necessarily good. Even if they wanted to use these medicinal pills to stop bleeding, it was impossible to use them to stop the bleeding even if the wound was a little bigger. It was precisely because of this that some rogue cultivators needed to recuperate for a period of time after being injured in order to recover their full strength. Recovering strength was very important for rogue cultivators because if their strength couldn't recover to its peak state, there might be a situation where they were injured on top of their injuries. In that case, it might become a hidden injury, and at that time, it would be really troublesome.
Seeing that the others didn't object, Yuan Jing nodded and said, "Alright, then it's settled. Tomorrow morning, we'll set off with the team. This time, we'll be able to relax. I told them that all of us can take their carriages to the Sealed Sword City. Hehe, how about it? Isn't this mission easy?"
Isn't it easy? "" Amitabha. It seems like Master Yuan Jing calling Shopkeeper Wu a miser wasn't wrong. I found that taking other missions is much more comfortable than following Shopkeeper Wu. "Zhao Hai softly chanted the name of Buddha.
When Yuan Jing and the others heard Zhao Hai, they couldn't help but stare. Then they laughed. Generally, when they take on guard missions, the employer will provide them with food and lodging. Only Shopkeeper Wu didn't.
Yuan Jing said, "Let's take a good rest here today. Right, their food doesn't seem to be very good. Why don't we eat Master Jing Hai's food tonight? What do you think? "
When everyone heard Yuan Jing, they all laughed. Zhao Hai naturally didn't object. It was rare for everyone to be so relaxed.
That night, everyone ate Zhao Hai's food in the store. They also replenished their food and water. Then they went to bed early. The next morning, they arrived at the gates of Xun Mountain City and waited for the arrival of the small caravan.
The people of the small caravan obviously didn't want to waste time. Not long after Zhao Hai and the others arrived, they also arrived. Then the caravan set off. At this time, the gates of Xun Mountain City had just opened.
On the way back, Zhao Hai and the others were very careful. This was because they were worried that Fat Wolf would attack them. However, in the first three days, they didn't encounter anything. However, this was also within Zhao Hai's expectations. This was because during these three days, they had a place to stay. After three days, they would have to stay in the wilderness for one day. Then there would be another day where they could stay in the wilderness. Then there would be another day where they could stay in the wilderness. Then there would be another day where they could stay in the wilderness. Then there would be another day where they could stay in the wilderness. Then there would be another day where they could stay in the wilderness. Then there would be another day where they could stay in the wilderness. Then there would be another day where they could stay in the wilderness. Then there would be another day where they could stay in the wilderness. Then there would be another day where they could stay in the wilderness. Then there would be another day where they could stay in the wilderness. Then there would be another day where they could stay in the wilderness. Then there would be another day where they could stay in the wilderness.
However, on the fourth day of their departure from Xun Mountain City, they encountered trouble when they were camping in the wilderness. This time, they weren't attacked by humans, but by beasts. Moreover, the beasts that attacked them were very strange. It turned out to be a group of rats.
These rats were called Sharp-Fanged Rats. They weren't very powerful beasts, and their courage wasn't very big. However, this time, they actually attacked the convoy. A total of several hundred Sharp-Fanged Rats were easily eliminated by Zhao Hai and the others. This allowed them to harvest some Sharp-Fanged Rats' skin, fangs, and whiskers.
Although the Rat's skin, fangs, and whiskers looked very inconspicuous, they were very useful. Not only can the Rat's skin be made into clothes, it also has a certain degree of resistance against earth-based techniques. Moreover, it was also one of the main raw materials for making earth-based beast soul talismans. As for the Rat's whiskers, they were an important material for making talisman brushes. As for the Rat's teeth, they can be used as refining materials. Because of this, Zhao Hai's harvest this time wasn't small. Moreover, they directly sold the Rat's skin, fangs, and whiskers to the caravan that they were protecting.
This was also the rule of the escort team. The escort team was responsible for the safety of the caravan. In the process, if the escort team suffered any casualties, the caravan wouldn't need to pay extra. Naturally, the loot obtained by the escort team would also belong to the escort team. If the caravan wants it, then it can only obtain it through normal transactions.
After selling the Sharp-Fanged Rats to the caravan, each of them received three second-grade crystals. Zhao Hai and the others earned quite a bit this time. Then the caravan set off again. They didn't encounter any danger, so they returned to Sealed Sword City without any surprises. After sending the caravan to the designated place, Zhao Hai and the others returned to the monastery.
Upon entering the monastery, Zhao Hai saw Hui De standing in the courtyard, looking at them with a smile. Everyone gave Hui De a salute and said, "Amitabha. We have seen Master Hui De." Among them, except for Zhao Hai, the others had already put away their weapons. Because of this, only Zhao Hai performed a single palm salute, while the others performed a hand salute.
Hui De smiled faintly at everyone and said, "You came back quite quickly this time. Fortunately, I didn't have to take away your houses and wait for you to come back. Hehe, how was the mission this time? Did it go smoothly? "
Yuan Jing replied, "Fortunately, in general, it went smoothly. However, we also encountered some dangers. Some of us were injured, so we need to take a good rest. I'll tell you more when we have the opportunity. Master Jing Hai, why don't we get together and talk about what happened this time? What do you think?"
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Amitabha. Master Yuan Jing is right. We should talk about it. Master Hui De, we'll talk about it later." Everyone didn't object. Then the group walked towards the courtyard.
When Hui De heard Zhao Hai and Yuan Jing's words, he couldn't help but stare. Then his expression couldn't help but change. He didn't think that Zhao Hai and the others would encounter danger this time. But he also knew that now wasn't the time to ask. So he just gave a salute to the group before letting them pass. Zhao Hai and the others didn't say anything.
