Chapter 410
Xiao Chen still wanted to get some useful information from the old man, so he continued to ask, “Old man, do you know what that outsider looks like?
Or do you know his name? ”
“I don’t know. I just heard it from an old man who came from the city.” The old man was a simple farmer. He didn’t have any scheming thoughts, so he said whatever he wanted to say.
“The old man said that there were portraits of that young man everywhere in the city, and that the young man’s name was written on the portraits. What was his name again?
Look at my memory. It’s only been two hours and I’ve already forgotten about it. Let me think about it. Oh right, that young man’s surname seems to be Xiao Chen, right? ”
“What?
Xiao Chen? ”
When Xiao Chen heard his name, he was shocked, but he quickly calmed down. He had already confirmed that he was most likely the person wanted by the entire city. A outsider named Xiao Chen, could it be someone else?
There were no such coincidences in this world.
What made Xiao Chen puzzled was that he hadn’t even entered the city in front of him. How did he become a wanted criminal?
This was too ridiculous. It seemed like there was a need to clarify things.
When the old man saw Xiao Chen’s face suddenly turn cold, he became afraid and pleaded, “Young Master, can I leave now?
I still need to go back and take care of my sick wife … ”
“Eh.”
Xiao Chen was so absorbed in his thoughts that he forgot about the grandpa in front of him for a moment. He felt a little apologetic in his heart. He took out a purple gold note worth a hundred taels of silver and stuffed it into the grandpa’s hand. He said softly, “Old man, use this money to buy some good medicine and tonics for me. You should go back soon. Also, remember, if anyone asks if you’ve seen me, just say no. Thank you.”
“Ah?
Is this a purple gold note?
And it’s worth a hundred taels of silver? Oh my god! ”
The old man looked at the purple gold note in his hand and his eyes suddenly widened. His face was filled with shock and ecstasy. It seemed like he had never had a purple gold note with a hundred taels of silver. As a poor commoner, he couldn’t even earn one tael of gold in a year, let alone purple gold. Now that someone had given him a hundred taels of purple gold, it was already good enough that he didn’t go crazy on the spot.
“That was close …”
Xiao Chen looked at the old man holding the purple gold bills with a blank expression on his face. He was secretly glad that he had changed his mind at the last minute. If he had just given the old man ten thousand pieces of purple gold, the old man might have gone crazy or been scared to death.
The reason why he gave the old man purple gold was because he heard that there was a sick old woman in the old man’s family. He thought about how Su Qingyi and his grandfather were also suffering from the disease.
Originally, Xiao Chen had planned to give the old man ten thousand purple gold coins, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was inappropriate. Ten thousand purple gold coins was a terrifying amount of wealth for a poor person, and if the old man had so much purple gold, he would definitely be targeted by bad people. Even a Blood Bear Realm martial artist would be tempted by ten thousand purple gold coins.
So, Xiao Chen chose the smallest purple gold note in his pocket and gave it to the old man. Xiao Chen never carried purple gold ingots on him, not to mention cheap gold ingots. Because Xiao Chen thought those ingots were too big and too heavy, it was very inconvenient to carry them around. Purple gold notes were much more convenient.
Seeing that the old man was not going to wake up anytime soon, Xiao Chen ignored the old man and turned to Da Huang who was nearby. He laughed coldly and said, “Da Huang, let’s go. I want to see why the city in front of us wants to capture me.
If they want to mess with me, then we can only start a massacre and go back to being the strongest robber in history!
Hehe … ”
“Great!
Big brother is mighty!
Haha! ”
Da Huang saw that Xiao Chen was talking to an old man for a long time, so he was listless. But when he heard Xiao Chen’s idea, he immediately cheered. Sure enough, Xiao Chen was a warmonger who wanted to see the world in chaos.
Xiao Chen and Big Yellow left quietly, rushing toward Ryoyang City, which was a hundred miles away. They did not hide themselves, and walked openly on the road, as if they were afraid that people would not know that they were there. In the words of Xiao Chen and Big Yellow, “To be the strongest robber in history, one must have the style. If one is sneaky, sneaky, and sneaky, then one would be considered an ordinary robber.” That’s right, “Xiao Chen said.
Two hours later, a city that was a few times bigger than Yu Hua City appeared in Xiao Chen and Da Huang’s sight. Along the way, they did not meet any martial artists who wanted to capture them. Da Huang was a little disappointed. But when he saw the big city in front of him, he became excited and his green eyes shone with excitement and greed.
“Bada!
Bada! ”
Big Yellow stuck out its long pink tongue to lick its lips, which were about to drool, then it transmitted its voice to the indifferent Xiao Chen excitedly.
“Big brother, this city is so big, so there must be a lot of money. It should not be a problem to rob ten million taels of purple gold, right?
I was not interested in human’s purple gold at first, but in order to save enough purple gold for Sister-in-law Su’s treatment, I now feel that purple gold is such a wonderful thing, haha! ”
“Yes, there should be no problem.” Xiao Chen nodded his head lightly. His eyes were like lightning and as cold as ice.
Other than the occasional chivalry, Xiao Chen would not take the initiative to provoke others. A drop of kindness will be returned with a spring, and if someone offends me, I will return it a hundred times over. This was Xiao Chen’s principle.
He did not offend anyone in Rung Yang City, but they wanted to arrest him. If he did not retaliate, he would not be called Xiao Chen.
“Da da da!”
Right at this moment, a group of dozens of cavalrymen galloped out of the city gate of Rung Yang City. This group of cavalrymen were all martial artists, and their strengths were all above the White Tiger Realm. At the front was a middle-aged martial artist who was at the peak of the Blood Bear Realm. They were fully armed, and their faces were cold. It was obvious that they were going out of the city to do something important.
There were three roads outside the city gate. One led to the east, one led to the west, and the third led to the south, which was the main road that Xiao Chen and Da Huang were walking on.
The direction that the cavalrymen were walking in was the south, which was the direction that Xiao Chen and Da Huang were at.
There was a path to heaven, but they chose to walk on the road to hell!
This group of martial artists had chosen the road to the south, which was no different from walking on the road to hell. They were courting death.
With so many martial artists moving out at this time, it was obvious that they were searching for Xiao Chen. They probably hadn’t seen Xiao Chen and the yellow dog by the big tree on the side of the road. Or maybe they had seen Xiao Chen, but they were too far away to see his face clearly. Hence, they decided to get closer to take a closer look.
Looking at the cavalrymen galloping towards him from a few miles away, Xiao Chen’s cold face revealed a cruel smile. He muttered to himself, “Are you guys here for me?
Since you’re here, I’ll take your lives … ”
Da Huang glanced at the cavalrymen in the distance indifferently and revealed a disdainful expression. He didn’t say anything and just followed beside Xiao Chen lazily like a dog following its owner for a stroll. He didn’t attract any attention at all.
