Xing Ruo pushed open the door and saw a murderous guard standing outside. He was 1.9 meters tall and weighed more than 150 kilograms. Half of his body was covered in leather armor and was covered in scars. Xing Ruo's calves immediately cramped up.
"Fake, fake!" Xing Ruo muttered to himself twice in his heart. He forced himself to calm down, turned around, and gently closed the door. Then, he tiptoed outside.
Even though he had always behaved like an ordinary kid and was a little timid, Ren Baqian always doubted whether he could do well.
However, he was sent by Su Wen and naturally wasn't a slow-witted person. After thinking for two days in his room, he figured it out and was ready to take the first step out of this residence to take a look.
That guard turned his head to look at him. The way he looked at him as if he was examining his prey immediately made Xing Ruo shiver. He quickly lowered his head and hurriedly walked out.
"It's fake, it's fake, it's fake. They are all kind-looking good people. It's all because of negative karma …" Xing Ruo kept muttering in his heart. Then, he bumped into the person who was entering the courtyard and was knocked over.
"Well, kid, watch where you walk." Gong Zheng was the one who bumped into him. He knew that this little baldy was related to Ren Baqian, so he lowered his head to pick him up and put him on the ground. This process was no different from picking up a doll.
"Where are you going?"
Gong Zheng stood there like a wall, blocking even the sunlight and casting a shadow over Xing Ruo.
Coupled with his sinister smile, Xing Ruo pouted and looked like he was about to cry.
"Fake, it's all fake!" Xing Ruo shouted with his eyes closed.
"What's fake?" Gong Zheng scratched his head. Was this little baldy a fool?
Xing Ruo opened his eyes and trembled as he said, "You are a good person!"
"Of course! Whoever dares to say that I'm not a good person, I will tear him apart, pull out his intestines, wrap them around his neck, and strangle him to death. Finally, I will chop him into meat paste and feed him to the babebeast! "Gong Zheng sneered.
Xing Ruo was frightened by Gong Zheng's ferocity and almost turned around to run back to his room.
But thinking that he could only rely on himself now, Xing Ruo suppressed his fear and stood there trembling, "It's fake. Actually, you're kind and benevolent. It's just that the negative karma has covered my eyes."
Gong Zheng: …? Kind-Looking and kind? Kind and kind? Was he referring to himself? It should be, right? That seemed to be the case.
"Amitabha, I want to go out!" Xing Ruosui said with a trembling voice.
"Oh, be careful." Gong Zheng scratched his head.
Hearing this ferocious-looking man in front of him tell him to be careful, Xing Ruo instantly felt that it was just as the Arhat had said. The ferociousness was all fake. It was all just a facade.
Xing Ruo put his palms together in front of Gong Zheng. Then, he carefully moved a few steps to the side before quickly walking out the door.
Gong Zheng turned his head and looked at the back of the fleeing figure, then said to the guards in the courtyard, "Did you hear that? He said that I'm kind and benevolent, and that children don't lie. It must be true. "
The guard pursed his lips. 'Don't you know what kind of person you are?'
"You don't think so?" When Gong Zheng saw him curling his lips, he immediately flew into a rage. He raised his fist, which was as big as a clay pot, and sent the guard flying.
After leaving the courtyard, Xing Ruo felt a lot bolder.
When a group of winged cavalry walked toward him, he immediately stood to the side and thought to himself, "It's fake." He put his palms together and said, "Amitabha."
Then, he saw two guards standing to the side. He thought to himself, "It's fake." He put his palms together and said, "Amitabha!"
However, he was surrounded by winged cavalry warriors and people from the Protectorate of the South.
When Xing Ruo encountered people for the third time, he stood to the side and said, "It's fake. Amitabha."
"It's fake. Amitabha!" Xing Ruo stood on the side of the street and looked at the aboriginal soldiers passing by.
"It's fake. Amitabha!" Xing Ruo realized that these people weren't as scary as they looked. Just as the Arhat had said, he became a little bolder.
The group of winged cavalry warriors and guards were baffled. What fake Amitabha? Could it be a local dialect? Was it actually a greeting?
It took the little monk an hour to walk out of the street. He was finally able to occasionally see ordinary people, which made him feel a lot more at ease.
Along the way, he looked at the quaint buildings on both sides of the street and the ordinary pedestrians. Whenever he met someone, he would say, "Amitabha!"
After strolling until noon, Xing Ruo felt a little hungry. He found a roadside shop, put his palms together, and said, "Amitabha. Benefactor, can you give me a bowl of water and a bowl of rice?"
The shopkeeper's face immediately turned black when he heard this. If a little beggar like you asked for a cup of water and some food, I'll give it to you. You actually want rice? Those things are shipped from Great Xia, and even I can't afford them!
"No, get lost!"
The little monk wasn't discouraged after being chased out and continued to beg for alms at the next shop.
"Get lost!" The second shopkeeper's reaction was exactly the same as the first one.
"Amitabha. Benefactor, can you give me a bowl of water and a bun? Pancakes are fine too! "The little monk lowered his request at the third shop.
"No, leave quickly. If you don't leave, I'll beat you up!" The shopkeeper immediately picked up his broom after hearing this.
Arhat is right. The people here don't respect Buddha, don't know true kindness, and don't have a merciful heart. Those who look like fiends are actually kind and charitable. They look easy to talk to, but are actually very vicious, Xing Ruo thought to himself.
Finally, a few winged cavalry warriors who had seen him before passed by. Seeing that he was hungry, they threw him a piece of jerky and a pot of water, which made him feel very grateful.
He was even more certain of his thoughts.
…
"Fake amitabha! Principal Ren, our brothers who went to the north will be back in the city in two hours. I heard that they brought back a lot of people. How should we settle them? "a guard entered the room and asked Ren Baqian.
"What do you mean fake amitabha?" Ren Baqian was confused.
"It's the dialect of the southern natives of Tianjing Basin, and it means to say hello," the guard explained seriously. Recently, it seemed to be quite popular to say this. In any case, he saw a few guards who came in from outside greet him this way.
"Oh!" Ren Baqian was a little suspicious, but he didn't think too much about it and called for the guards to leave the city.
At this moment, besides the original aboriginal guards, there were six other people following behind Ren Baqian.
Four of them were in their thirties or forties, and they were all from the Lingshan Sect. Two of them used swords, one used a spear, and the last used a pair of steel sabers. The other two were slightly older and were from Qingyun Sword. One looked like an old farmer and used a fork as a weapon. The other had white hair and beard, but he had a sturdy build and was only slightly weaker than the aboriginals. He used a long saber.
All six of them were Earth Wheel experts and weren't considered weak.
In the past, they were all experts, but now, they had become Ren Baqian's guards.
However, seeing that the weakest among the winged cavalry was at the Earth Wheel level, they didn't feel that it was unfair.
If there was, it was because they had fought to the death before, but now, they were mixed in with the aboriginals as guards, which made them feel somewhat uncomfortable.
The group left the city and didn't wait for long before they saw a group of people coming from afar.
At the front were the people from the Golden Ring Residence, and behind them were hundreds of people. Everyone's hands were tied up, and their clothes, which used to be gorgeous, were now dirty.
Beside this group of people, there were dozens of winged cavalry warriors riding their mounts and moving forward slowly.
Behind these people, there was a large number of carriages. However, the carriages weren't loaded with people, but with looted goods.
"Sir!" When everyone arrived at the foot of the city, the winged cavalry warriors came up to greet them.
"Was everything alright along the way?" Ren Baqian asked.
"Sir, they were very well-behaved."
"Not bad. Did you meet the army from the Protectorate of the South? "
"Sir, there are still a few cities that haven't been cleared along the way, and they will only arrive in a few days."
Ren Baqian nodded, looked at the uneasy people behind them, and said, "Release them."
He then raised his voice and said, "You aren't here as prisoners, but as a sign of friendly coexistence between the people of Tianjing Basin and the aboriginals. The people of Tianjing Basin have many misunderstandings about the aboriginals and the imperial court. I hope that when you return in the future, you can dispel this misunderstanding. "
Awkward silence!
Misunderstanding? There was no misunderstanding at all.
Ren Baqian didn't mind and continued, "I gave you a chance and was lenient, but it doesn't mean that I will always be lenient. After entering the city, be well-behaved and know your place. Unless you are stronger than the one hanging at the top of the city wall! "
"Sir Ren, who is that on top of the city wall?" Zhan Changkong had been staring at the few people behind Ren Baqian since the beginning. He had seen these people before. Four of them were highly ranked experts in the Lingshan Sect. He didn't expect them to be following behind Ren Baqian.
The other two were experts from the hidden village.
It seemed like the Lingshan Sect and Qingyun Sword had surrendered …
Who was that on top of the city wall? Based on what Ren Baqian said, this person's identity wasn't simple.
"Spirit Spear Teng Yue. I'm sure you have heard of him!" Ren Baqian sneered.
"The fourth most powerful expert in the world, Spirit Spear Teng Yue?" Everyone was shocked. How did Teng Yue appear here? How did he die here?
