Master is too ambitious

Chapter 29 Return to the Human World 3

Su Feng was not sociable by nature, and he had done all kinds of jobs to make a living in the past. Now, asking for directions was a piece of cake for him. His speech and behavior were very experienced, and it didn't take him much effort to find out that there were guild halls for various states in Sanshan City, which made it convenient for merchants from various states to come and do business.

Following the information he had obtained, he found the Beizhou Guild Hall at the west end of the city. Su Feng stepped into the guild hall and learned that a large caravan would return to Beizhou tomorrow, and the manager of the caravan was currently in the guild hall.

Su Feng gave the waiter of the guild hall a piece of silver and said, "Brother, please introduce me to a car. My brother and I would like to take a ride."

The waiter bit the silver pieces, weighed them, and said with a grin, "Sir, please follow me. The manager Zhao of the caravan is inside."

Shopkeeper Zhao was very smart, with a pair of triangular eyes that looked high and mighty. When he heard that Su Feng wanted to take a ride, he said indifferently, "Three taels for men and five taels for women. Just wait in front of the guild hall at noon tomorrow morning."

Su Feng didn't care about his attitude. After getting a confirmed time and reserving four seats, he politely said goodbye.

He was not in a hurry to go back to the tea stall, but turned around and found the waiter and said he wanted to buy a carriage. The waiter, having received his favor, naturally did his best to introduce him to the shop that did this business.

After buying two good horses in the east of the city and a comfortable carriage, Su Feng drove the carriage back to the tea shed. As soon as he entered the tea shed, he saw that Ji Qian had noticed his return. He hurried forward and said, "Master, Miss Yun, Miss Yu, I have already made an appointment with the manager of the caravan. I will follow the caravan to Beizhou at the Beizhou Guild Hall at noon tomorrow morning."

"You did a great job. Thank you for your hard work." Ji Qian praised.

When Su Feng heard this, his eyes lit up. He sat down next to Ji Qian and said, "I was worried that Miss Yun and Miss Yu would find it inconvenient to ride in the caravan's carriage, so I bought a carriage myself and now it's parked outside."

He looked at Ji Qian and continued, "Tomorrow, Master, Miss Yun, and Miss Yu will ride in the new carriage, and I will drive it."

Yiyun and Xie Xinyu were touched when they heard him say that and said, "Thank you, big brother."

Seeing his rather experienced arrangement, Ji Qian praised him and said, "Let me drive with you."

It was natural that he was happy to be able to drive with his master, but his master was his master after all, and it was not right to ask him to drive as well. Just as Su Feng was about to persuade him, Ji Qian said, "Let's do it this way. Let's find an inn today and set off at noon tomorrow."

The four of them arrived at the Beizhou Guild Hall at noon as agreed. In front of the guild hall was a long line of cars, with about a hundred horse-drawn carriages and dozens of escort vehicles. It seemed to be a large trading company.

Su Feng found Manager Zhao, paid the fare for four people, and gave him a fake pass. Manager Zhao kept the money, looked at the pass, and asked someone to lift the curtain of the car to look at Yiyun and Xie Xinyu in the car.

When Shopkeeper Zhao first saw Ji Qian, who was sitting in the front of the carriage driving the car, with a high-quality white fur coat draped over his shoulders that looked like clouds and mist, his triangular eyes flashed, and he guessed that the white fur coat was probably the fur of a rare animal that was seldom seen in these Ten Thousand Mountains. Now, when he saw Xie Xinyu, who was elegant and refined in the carriage, he felt a little excited inside. Such a beauty was probably more beautiful than the concubines in the palace.

He waved his hand, signaling Su Feng to drive the car to the back and catch up with the convoy. He was thinking about how to snatch Bai Qiu away when he arrived in Beizhou, and then keep the woman in the car as his mistress.

He had some influence in Beizhou. Looking at these four people, although they were well-dressed and might have some status in their hometown, what power could they have in such a remote place like Beizhou? Moreover, he was quite skilled in doing this kind of thing and would be able to capture them easily.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but touch his small tuft of beard and smiled with satisfaction. "Snap." "Snap." "Snap."

It seemed as if water had fallen on his face. Shopkeeper Zhang wiped his face and said that it was unlucky to rain. But when he looked up, the sun had just climbed out of the horizon and the people were almost melted by the heat.

"What are you looking at, shopkeeper?" A woman's voice sounded in his ears. The voice was so gentle and soft that people who heard it felt half numb. But to Shopkeeper Zhao, it was like a bolt from the blue. It was not for any other reason, but because the owner of this voice was taken back home by him a few months ago, and she hanged herself because she could not bear the humiliation. Hearing this now, he could not help but feel horrified and got goose bumps all over his body.

A white hand gently touched Shopkeeper Zhao's face. Shopkeeper Zhao felt cold all over and trembled involuntarily. He stared at the hand and saw it slowly rotting. Pus and blood mixed with rotten flesh slowly flowed down. His nose was filled with a disgusting stench, "You you you you!!!"

Shopkeeper Zhao screamed, startling the people around him. Shopkeeper Wang, who was traveling with him, slapped him in the face and said unceremoniously, "Mr. Zhao, you've been standing at the door for quite some time. Don't delay the boss's business."

Shopkeeper Zhao was slapped in the face. He looked carefully and saw that the caravan men were busy moving goods and driving the carts. Where did the hand come from? He wiped his forehead and guessed that he was hallucinating because of the heat. Hearing the words of Shopkeeper Wang, who was at odds with him, he glared at Wang grimly and went back to his work.

But Shopkeeper Zhao had no doubts about who would wear a white fur coat on their shoulders in such hot weather.

The system rubbed its hands and said expectantly, "I wonder how long this Zhao can last."

Ji Qian smiled and said, "Who knows? After all, I just agreed to one of their requests."

The system said: "If you meet a bad guy, even ghosts will be afraid of him."

Ji Qian didn't care and said, "Then let's say he wins." He was still looking at the scenery, and seemed to be in a good mood. He said, "But in this world, good will never prevail over evil."

After hearing what he said, the system thought it was true. Maybe today was just planting seeds, and who knows when they will accumulate and explode in the future.

Su Feng saw his master suddenly laugh, and couldn't help asking: "Master seems to be in a good mood, did you think of something?"

Ji Qian looked back at him and said, "Three hundred years ago, I came to the human world to travel, and it happened to be a chaotic time. Now it is peaceful, which is really good."

Su Feng was stunned for a moment when he heard him say this, and asked as if to verify it: "Did Master really come to the human world three hundred years ago?"

Ji Qian glanced at him strangely and said, "Indeed."

He seemed to recall that when he came to the world, there was a snowstorm that happened only once in a century. People rose up in rebellion and later followed the King of Qin to pacify the world. He smiled and said, "When I came to the world, the king of Xia was incompetent and the people were living in misery. The King of Qin pacified the world. Now the Qin State seems to be doing well. It should be that the descendants of the King of Qin have not forgotten the teachings of their ancestors."

Su Feng smiled, shook his head, and said, "Master, the Qin State of the past is no longer the Qin State of today."

Ji Qian said "oh", he was not surprised. After all, three hundred years had passed, and any dynasty would have been almost doomed by this time.

Su Feng was driving the carriage, his mind was in a mess. This was the young man in white clothes and white fur that he met when he was eight years old, which was only thirty years ago. However, Ji Qian said that he came into the world three hundred years ago, a difference of more than two hundred years. But Ji Qian was indeed exactly the same as the young man in his memory. What was going on?

Ji Qian saw that he was worried, but they were driving the carriage, and Yiyun and Xie Xinyu were still behind. Considering Su Feng's privacy, it was not appropriate to ask too much at this time. He thought to himself that he would wait until night when they arrived at the post station to ask him. Having something on his mind was not conducive to his practice. Besides, Su Feng was his disciple after all, so he couldn't let him do whatever he wanted. It would easily create resentment over time.
