As Lü Shu discussed the matter with the caravan owner, he observed the expressions of Sun Zhongyang and the others. Lü Shu noticed that Sun Zhongyang and the others looked like they were ready to give it a try, as if the ambush was nothing serious.
In the end, the caravan owner did not argue with Lü Shu. Not only did he agree to Lü Shu's request for a free meal, but he also promised that if they ever met again, Lü Shu could follow the caravan for free forever.
The caravan owner was a smart man, but he knew that Lü Shu had saved his life. If he had died just now, the Sun family might have avenged him, but if he was dead, what was the point of revenge?
Still, his stance was clear. The caravan found a suitable place to set up camp that day, and the caravan owner told Sun Zhongyang and the others everything that had happened that day, such as the power of the arrow, his analysis of the slaves, and the surprise that Lü Shu had given him!
"Come to think of it, I didn't notice the arrow at that time, but Lü had already sensed it. It was just that I was in a hurry and didn't have time to think about it, so I missed some details," the caravan owner said as he recalled the scene from the day.
"You're saying that he had already sensed the arrow before it reached you, and you only noticed it when you heard the explosion in the distance," Sun Zhongyang said with a smile as he sat next to the campfire. "So, you're saying that he's actually a master?"
"That's right." The caravan owner nodded. "Also, I suspect that he noticed the arrow very early, but he pretended to notice it at the same time when it was about to reach me and saved me."
"So, you're saying that he purposely wanted you to owe him a favor for saving your life? Why would he do that? What if he couldn't save you? "
The caravan owner thought for a long time and said, "I think he wanted me to owe him a favor so that he wouldn't have to pay the fee to follow the caravan to the capital …"
Sun Zhongyang sucked in a cold breath. "I think it's very possible …"
Generally speaking, it was difficult to associate this kind of attack with some small amount of money. In Sun Zhongyang's eyes, the money Lv Shu spent on the caravan to King City was really a small amount of money, the kind that he did not care about at all.
But for some reason, when the main character of this incident became Lü Shu, they assumed that Lü Shu was thinking the same thing. He wanted the caravan owner to owe him a favor so that he could go to the capital for free …
Usually, everyone's personality was different, so the way they looked at things and their opinions were also different. However, their understanding of Lv Shu had surprisingly reached a high degree of unity.
"Say, do you guys think he really schemed so much for such a small amount of money?" Sun Zhongyang felt a headache coming on.
Mo Xiaoya didn't have a good impression of Lü Shu now, so she laughed coldly after hearing Sun Zhongyang's words. "Haha, this person is willing to do anything for money. He was even willing to take away Xu Mujun's life savings. Is there anything he wouldn't do? Previously, I found it hard to believe that he would betray that Wu Wei Army commander for money. Now, I feel that it's really unlucky for him to have met that commander. "
"Hmm, do you guys think he was arranged by our enemy to join the caravan?" someone asked.
"That's not possible." Sun Zhongyang shook his head. "To be honest, staying in the caravan is already a surprise to us. If he really wanted to ambush us, he wouldn't be so high profile …"
Was Lü Shu high profile? Actually, Lü Shu wasn't high profile at all, but for some reason, Sun Zhongyang and the others couldn't ignore Lü Shu's presence …
"Hmm, do you guys think he could be Commander Wu Weijun?" someone asked curiously.
"Probably not. Wu Weijun has four first ranks, so Commander Wu Weijun must be one of them. Otherwise, why would others listen to him? And this Lü Shu doesn't have the aura of a soldier at all! "
"I think it's better to guard against him," Mo Xiaoya said coldly, then asked the boss, "What do you think of his strength?"
"He should be at the peak of second rank." The boss thought for a moment and said, "He doesn't look like a first rank, but I feel like he's more relaxed than a normal peak second rank. You guys didn't notice his expression at the time, but I did … he's too calm. Normal people wouldn't be this calm. It's as if sneak attacks and battles are as common as eating and drinking to him! "
This was how the caravan owner felt at the time. He had been a caravan owner for many years, and he had encountered bandits, regular armies, and wars. Although he had always been able to turn misfortunes into blessings, the caravan owner still couldn't say that he could remain calm in the face of a battle or an arrow. However, Lv Shu's calmness was as if his life and death were in his hands, and no one else could touch him.
Mo Xiaoya laughed coldly. "Just tell him there's something wrong with him. I think we should all keep a closer eye on him. If he can betray Commander Wu Weijun, why can't he betray us for money? Should we just chase him away, lest he becomes a hidden danger in the merchant group? "
"Xiaoya is right. We should always be cautious, but wouldn't it be unreasonable to chase him away?" someone asked doubtfully.
At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves could be heard in the night, as well as the creaking sound of carriages rolling over the ground. It wasn't that someone had arrived, but that someone was leaving the caravan …
Sun Zhongyang was stunned for a moment before he rushed over with his men. Then, his face darkened. Lü Shu and Lü Xiaoyu were leaving overnight …
They were still wondering if it would be immoral to chase them away, but they were leaving on their own.
Sun Zhongyang was a smart man, so in that instant, Sun Zhongyang understood why the young man wanted to leave. He was worried that he would be ambushed along with them! They were only thinking about whether it would be unsafe for Lü Shu to stay with the group, but the young man was thinking whether it would be unsafe for him to stay with them …
"Negative emotions from Sun Zhongyang, + 666 …"
"Negative emotions from …"
Sun Zhongyang's face darkened immediately. "Where are you guys going?"
Lü Shu said calmly, "It's like this, it's not safe to follow you guys. Let's meet up in the capital. I'll help you guys find Commander Wu Weijun …"
Mo Xiaoya was furious. "Now that everyone is in danger, you guys are leaving?"
"What does it have to do with me?" Lü Shu was a little confused. To him, they were just a bunch of strangers who wanted to beat him up every day. It was already a good thing that he didn't wipe them out in the middle of the night …
Mo Xiaoya was speechless for a long time. "You abandon your companions and run away when you see danger. Even if you can live well, what friends can you have?"
"What does it have to do with you?" Lü Shu was even more confused.
He looked at the silent Mo Xiaoya and suddenly sighed. Life was all about using the words "what does it have to do with you" and "what does it have to do with me" to save a lot of trouble …
