Sassoux shrugged and threw a gold coin into the basket. Then, he picked up a bouquet of flowers and pointed to Han Jin and Sunier. He smiled and said, "Miss, they will definitely buy your flowers. Hurry up, don't let your business run away."
Seeing that Sassoux was also generous, the girl was so excited that her face turned red. Han Jin and the others had harvested some high-level magic crystals in the Tarasha Mountains. Except for the magic crystal of the Thunderbird, which was left for Yalina, they sold the rest and divided it equally among everyone. It was the first time they had received a salary. However, Morrisons and the others had been busy with training these days, and Winston had taken care of their food and accommodation, so there was almost no place for them to spend money. Out of sympathy, it was not a big deal to throw a few gold coins, but for the girl, these few gold coins were equivalent to her income for a few months. It was very meaningful.
"Thank you." The girl timidly bowed to Sassoux, and then ran to Han Jin. "Big … big brother, do you want to buy flowers?"
Of course, Han Jin would buy them. Not to mention other reasons, Sunier was looking at him with a charming face! That day, when he released his "Haki" in front of Sunier, he was actually very uncertain. Who knew if Sunier would listen to him?! But it turned out that he occupied a very important position in Sunier's heart, because Sunier really said goodbye to the mask, and only tied a sky-blue ribbon on her forehead to cover the mark on her forehead. In terms of appearance alone, Sunier and Yalina were on par. However, perhaps because of the different "realms," Sunier had an additional charm, which was a combination of daydreaming about the future and a strong sense of happiness.
Han Jin did not waste any time and directly threw out two gold coins, then picked a bouquet of flowers that he was satisfied with and handed it to Sunier. Sunier smiled sweetly and took the bouquet.
Two gold coins?! The young girl almost cheered. In comparison, Han Jin was the most generous. She felt that she should say something. After a pause, she said softly, "I wish you both happiness."
"Thank you." Sunier nodded with a smile.
Most of the time, pain often came from comparison. When a starving person saw a rich man indulging in debauchery, he would feel pain. However, when he saw a prisoner on death row, he would feel very happy. At least he still had his life.
The young girl stared blankly at the backs of Han Jin and Sunier. She was grateful to these generous big shots, but she was also very jealous, especially of Sunier. They were both girls, but Sunier had solid arms to rely on. What about her? She still had to run around in such cold weather!
Just as the girl was lost in her thoughts, a fat hand reached out from the side and grabbed her flower basket. The girl reacted quickly and hurriedly dodged. "You … Master Dauncy …"
"Business seems to be good." The man named Dauncy wasn't tall, but he wore a lot of clothes. He seemed to be very afraid of the cold. His thick leather coat and hat, coupled with his round belly, made him look like a rubber ball.
The girl's face paled, and she couldn't help but take two steps back. Her eyes kept darting left and right.
"Give me your taxes for the next few days." Dauncy reached out his hand.
"Master, my mother has been sick for a few days. She's been waiting for me …"
"F * ck!" Dauncy's expression changed. He rudely interrupted the girl's pleading. He grabbed the girl's clothes with one hand and rudely reached for the flower basket with the other. "Cut the crap!"
The girl struggled, but she was too weak to break free. In a moment of desperation, she slammed her head into Dauncy.
Dauncy didn't expect her to resist. He let out a blood-curdling scream and fell to the ground while covering his nose.
The young girl turned around and ran. Her pair of tattered floral shoes were too shabby and didn't fit her feet well. She simply threw them away and ran in the snow barefoot.
"Chase after her …" Dauncy waved his arms.
Only then did the men behind him react. They cursed as they chased after her. Although the girl was the first to run, she was still a girl. Her body was stiff and numb from the snow, so her running speed was very limited. She only ran a hundred meters before the men caught up. One of them kicked the girl's back. The girl cried out in pain and fell into the snow. She rolled a few times and almost turned into a snowman. Another burly man rushed over and reached out to grab the girl's hair, forcibly lifting her up.
Dauncy panted as he rushed over. He raised his hand and slapped the girl's face. "F * ck! You still dare to run! "
The young girl's figure was very petite. After being slapped, her entire body was sent flying. Once again, she fell into the snow. In the hands of the burly man, there was a strand of pitch-black hair. The roots of the hair were mixed with streaks of blood.
"Young Master, you're bleeding …" one of the men whispered.
"So what?" Dauncy sneered. Blood was already seeping out of the girl's mouth, but he was far from satisfied.
"Young Master, I was talking about you … You're bleeding," the man said with a bitter smile.
Dauncy was stunned. He reached out and wiped his nose. Sure enough, his palm was covered in blood. Dauncy was furious. He rushed up and slapped the girl again. But this time was different. The girl's hair had been grabbed tightly by Dauncy, and she couldn't dodge at all. It was purely out of instinct. The girl closed her eyes and shrunk back. Bang! Dauncy's hand landed on her head.
Neither the person being hit nor the person being hit were professionals. In terms of body structure, the skull was far harder than the finger bones. The girl was seeing stars from the slap. Dauncy jumped up and screamed in pain. His fingers were stiff and almost numb.
"Young Master, what's wrong?!" The men hurriedly surrounded him.
"Get out of my way!" Dauncy was infuriated. He pushed aside the man in front of him and rushed over to the girl, kicking her. "How dare you run!"
The young girl already knew that she was going to be in trouble. She curled up into a ball and covered her right hand tightly under her body. What she was holding in her hand was not only today's income, but also her lifeblood. Or rather, her mother's lifeblood.
"I'll let you run … I'll let you run …" Every time Dauncy yelled, he would kick the girl. However, the girl clenched her teeth and didn't make a sound. This somewhat disappointed him. Of course, his actions also became more and more violent.
With a clang, a giant sword suddenly appeared and stabbed into the ground, right next to the girl's body. Fortunately, Dauncy's stamina wasn't good. After a dozen kicks, he had to take a few breaths before he could move again. If he had continued at the same pace as before, he would have kicked the blade of the sword instead!
Dauncy was stunned. He raised his head and saw Morrisons with his arms crossed in front of his chest. His expression was frighteningly dark as he stared coldly at Dauncy.
When the girl and Dauncy were fighting, Han Jin and the others hadn't gone far. They all saw the scene. Han Jin, who was at the back, didn't appear because he had something more important to do. He had to save someone! However, he wasn't saving the girl, but Dauncy. If he hadn't stopped Yalina in time, her lightning would have already struck!
Dauncy's eyelids twitched. He didn't want to get into a fight with the mercenaries, but he couldn't take this lying down. He tried his best to soften his tone. "Brother, mind your own business. Go do what you need to do."
"Do what you need to do? You said it yourself! "Morrisons sneered." I'm supposed to beat someone up right now! "Before he could finish his sentence, his large fist had already landed on Dauncy's cheek.
In truth, Morrisons didn't want to get involved. He wanted to first protect the girl, then hand both parties over to the Mercenary Association, which was responsible for maintaining law and order. However, Dauncy's attitude was unbearable. Wasn't it enough to beat them up? Did he want to continue?!
Even though Morrisons didn't use too much strength, Dauncy was still sent flying into the air, leaving behind an arc of blood in the air. When he landed on the snowy ground, he somersaulted and rolled for a long distance. The men hurriedly pounced on him. Morrisons was a fighter, after all. Even though he didn't have a longsword, his large fists were more than enough. He punched one after another, and in the blink of an eye, the men were all beaten into rolling gourds.
Dauncy struggled to get up, but felt dizzy. He retched a few times and spat out a dozen white and red teeth. At that moment, someone outside the crowd yelled, "What's going on? Get out of the way! "
An old man holding a sword led a dozen mercenaries through the crowd and walked into the field. When the old man saw Han Jin and the others, he paused for a moment before turning his gaze to Dauncy.
When Dauncy saw the old man, he somehow found the strength to sit up. He opened his leaky mouth and called out in a muffled voice, "Uncle …"
The old man looked around and saw the girl covered in wounds. Anyone with a brain could guess what had happened. The old man's face darkened as he said coldly to Morrisons, "Did you beat up all these people?"
"Yes, I did. What about it?" Morrisons University said casually.
"You should know the rules of the Mercenary Association. Since you've admitted it, there's nothing more to say. Come with us."
Morrisons couldn't believe his ears. He looked the old man up and down and said in an unfriendly tone, "Old man, are you drunk?!" Although he spent most of his time on cultivation and rarely went out, he was always the target of flattery and flattery every time he went out. Even the higher-ups of the Mercenary Association treated him with respect. Didn't this old man know that he was Morrisons?!
"And he drank fake wine." Han Jin continued calmly. His memory had always been amazing, and he recognized the old man. The one who had forced little Joseph to bite them was this old man, Cromwell! He had a vague feeling that the old man was plotting something, but as things happened one after another, he slowly forgot about it.
In the past, he had a lot of concerns, but now, he was no longer the Han Jin of the past! Jin Lin had made the great leap and completed the most important transformation. As the saying went, there were no idiots in his dealings. The people he was dealing with now were Gibran, Winston, Dwightsteel of the Dragon Singer Mercenary Group, and Juventus of the Mercenary Association. There was no need to worry about these errand boys, and they posed no threat to him.
Sassoux and the others laughed. Morrisons also cracked a smile, his eyes full of laughter.
The old man's face darkened as he said coldly, "Arrest them all!"
