Resurrecting Metaphysics - C114

“What a weirdo!” Li Lu complained softly behind Ouyang Yu. She suddenly raised her head and looked at Fu Shang. “Master, you know him. How come I’ve never seen him before?” Fu Shang shook his head. “I just met him. He has your master’s Medicine King Token in his hands. I think his relationship with your master is not simple. You can ask your master when the time comes.” “You can’t, why would my master hand over such an important medallion to him?” “What?” Li Lu’s mouth twitched. “Hehe, that might be possible. This brat is not simple at all. Didn’t you see how he took the cauldron for you just now? He didn’t even move his body and just smoothly placed the lid on the cauldron next to you. This is also a little difficult for me.” It can’t be, Senior Master, you’re a powerhouse in the air control stage! ” “Li Lu’s round mouth was opened so wide that it revealed her pure and cute side.” Why is it impossible? There are many things in this world that I cannot understand! ” For once, she gave Li Lu a hard look.

After leaving the Alchemist Guild, Ouyang Yu didn’t head straight back to the hotel. Instead, he stopped a carriage. “Go to the auction!” He didn’t care about the look in the driver’s eyes as he sat on the car. Ouyang Yu leisurely crossed his legs and waited in the car for a while, but he saw that the car was still standing there. Ouyang Yu stretched out his head and shouted to the driver below, “Uncle, why aren’t you leaving yet?” At this moment, the coachman was still standing there. After hearing Ouyang Yu’s shout, he came back to his senses and revealed a bitter smile. “Uncle, the auction is very far from here. The more people there are, the harder it is. This …” “Oh, that’s fine. I’ll pay you more later.” Ouyang Yu smiled casually before withdrawing his head. However, Ouyang Yu didn’t see any reaction from the car and was a little anxious. He stuck his head out and saw the coachman’s helpless expression. “Uncle, you’re afraid that I won’t give you the money!” Ouyang Yu thought that he had thought through the crux of the matter, and with a sneer, he took out a few gold coins from his robes and handed it over. The driver’s eyes lit up as he looked at the gold coin. However, he suddenly opened his mouth and said to Ouyang Yu, “Elder, it’s best if you don’t ask me to send you off.” “Sigh, she’s still young!” In the past, when Ouyang Yu was at home, he clearly remembered that it was usually only a few copper coins by car. Even if it was a long journey, it wouldn’t even cost a silver coin. Ouyang Yu helplessly smiled bitterly as he thought, the people here are really too evil. However, he did not want to bargain with the coachman, so he took out a few gold coins from his pocket, “This should be enough!” The owner’s eyes almost popped out. These gold coins were almost enough for him to live on for a year, and the greedy look on his face was as if he had made an important decision. In the end, he shook his head and said, “Sir, I still have some things I want to do, so you should call someone else!” As he spoke, he gestured a ‘please’ position towards Ouyang Yu. This confused Ouyang Yu. Shaking his head, he walked down helplessly. Ouyang Yu continued to call for another car, but when the car owners found out that he was going to the auction house, they all shook their heads and invited Ouyang Yu out. Ouyang Yu dragged over the driver to ask him, but he stubbornly refused to speak.

“Damn it, even if I have the money, I can’t use it today. Do you think I won’t believe you?” It wasn’t that Ouyang Yu didn’t want to leave by himself, but he didn’t know how to do it. Ouyang Yu also felt that asking the way was a little troublesome and a little untrustworthy.

“Big brother, we shouldn’t send herbs to the auction house like last time, right?”

“I don’t think so. After all, we’re here to deliver medicine to the auction house, so they won’t be so easy to mess with.”

“Well, I suppose so! We’ll just have to be more careful later. ”

While Ouyang Yu was helpless, a caravan suddenly walked past him. They happened to hear the auction house mentioned by them. How could Ouyang Yu miss such a good opportunity? “Today, I will thoroughly become a rascal!” He stood in front of the car.

“Aooo!” A loud horse howl rang out. Due to Ouyang Yu being too impatient, the carriage almost crashed into Ouyang Yu. If it wasn’t for the fact that the driver was skilled, Ouyang Yu wouldn’t have been harmed. However, he was looked down upon by others.

“Hey, brother, what are you doing?” “The coachman shouted at Ouyang Yu.” “Excuse me, are you guys going to the auction?” Ouyang Yu scratched his head, unsure of what to do. How do you know? ” A few heads suddenly stuck out of the car as they looked at Ouyang Yu with unfriendly expressions.

“Brothers, I was just unable to get a car to the auction house. I just happened to hear the two lords talk about the auction house, so I …” “Oh, so it’s Brother Lu, come up!” A middle-aged man made a move towards Ouyang Yu.

After passing through a few alleys, the car headed towards a remote mountain road. “After entering the mountain range, roars of beasts could be heard from time to time.” Could it be that the coachmen are not willing to come here because they are afraid of these beasts? ” Ouyang Yu thought to himself as he looked at the big carriage with a puzzled expression. Not long after, Lian Chong’s group that invited him up became cautious. Ouyang Yu felt that it was very strange, so he asked Lian Chong, “Big Brother Lian, why did you guys become so careful as soon as you arrived here? Are you afraid of the ferocious beasts here?”

“Wild beasts aren’t scary at all. Even if they do encounter a beast, they usually wouldn’t take the initiative to attack it.”

“Then big brother Lian, what are you afraid of?”

“Afraid of those beasts!” As he spoke up to this point, Lian Chong’s eyes burned with rage. The usually easy-going image was completely swept away. After calming down a bit, he continued, “Last time, quite a few brothers in our caravan were harmed by them. This group of beasts can’t compare to us, but they only know how to bully us merchants that don’t have much strength. When they heard Lian Chong mention their previous sorrows, the other team members gritted their teeth with faces full of grief and indignation.

“Aren’t there any officials in charge of this place?” Ouyang Yu asked.

When Ouyang Yu mentioned the government, the excitement on his face became even more intense. “The government?” Lian Chong angrily laughed a few times, “What officials are there in this society? The officials and bandits are already one family.” “In the past, the security of this place was alright, but ever since this city was managed by a general called Dufu, the security of this place has been like this. I heard that the bandit’s leader and General Dufu are related in some way.”

Ouyang Yu frowned. In his eyes, the emperor was a very wise person. Although he was very domineering, he would not let the commoners fall to such a state. “Sigh, this world is really hard for people to guess.”

Ouyang Yu felt very uncomfortable when he saw how the emotions of these casual businessmen had changed so much. Big brother Lian, since you know that this isn’t a good thing to do, why do you still want to do this? I think you can provide for your families by doing other things! ”

Hearing Ouyang Yu’s words, Lian Chong forced a smile on his face and said, “Brother Yu, you don’t know!” Although being a laborer can barely support my life, if I want my wife and children to live a better life, I have to do this! It doesn’t matter if I take a risk, as long as my family lives better.

Seeing these kind and ordinary merchants, Ouyang Yu couldn’t help but feel that they were great. Normally, they lived in the family and didn’t see the hardworking people living at the bottom. Today, they finally saw how difficult life was for them. He thought to himself, “If I meet them later, I must help them solve this problem.”

“Brother Lian, can you tell me the specific strength of those people?” My cultivation level shouldn’t be very high. Although I don’t understand battle qi, from the looks of it, they are only slightly stronger than ordinary people. However, there were many of them. Last time, there were nearly twenty people who surrounded us and robbed all of our supplies, causing us to lose everything. What’s more, a few of the brothers spoke a few words, and were then cruelly killed by them. ” Lian Chong clenched his fists in grief and indignation. The other members were also filled with hatred.

“Aren’t you afraid of encountering them today?” Ouyang Yu asked.

“How could I not be afraid? But this time, we are giving something to the auction house, so I believe they will not make things difficult for us. Hopefully, they will have some good luck!” Lian Chong sighed.

Since Lian Chong and the others had a shadow in their hearts, they didn’t chat and laugh like before when walking around here. They only cautiously looked at their surroundings. Regarding this, Ouyang Yu also maintained his silence, but he cursed in his heart, “Fuck, this bunch of things actually made me unable to get a taxi today. It’s best if I don’t get a taxi this time.” Otherwise … Thinking of this, Ouyang Yu’s expression turned grim.

The mountain range was not very large. Within two hours, they had reached the depths of the mountain range. Ouyang Yu discovered that the road was overgrown with weeds. He couldn’t see clearly through the scattered rutted images and Matty. It was obvious that very little people used to walk on this path. The trees here were tall and lofty. The sunlight outside was even less able to enter. Walking on this dark path, it gave off a depressing and sinister feeling.

“Everyone be careful, try not to let them find out.” Lian Chong’s voice made the originally dull team members even more tense. Ouyang Yu also released his mind to sense the surroundings.

After they nervously walked for a distance, Ouyang Yu suddenly felt a disturbance ahead. He was just about to warn Lian Chong and the others when nearly twenty burly middle-aged men rushed out from the forest and quickly surrounded Ouyang Yu and the others. Seeing their attire, Ouyang Yu let out a sigh of relief. “They’ve finally come out!”

“Leave your things behind!” The leader of the bandits expressionlessly said.

Seeing these vicious bandits, Lian Chong’s group did not seem to be afraid. They looked at these bandits with anger.
