My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.
Chapter 152 followed one after another.
Chapter 152 followed one after another.
A certain rugged mountain road,
A group of people were lying in ambush on the mountaintop, with the leader looking down at a small convoy of vehicles passing by on the mountain road.
"Boss, are you going to make a move? Looks like a fat sheep. We haven't had a bite in a while, and the brothers are getting restless!"
A man stepped forward from behind, gazing at the convoy passing by on the road below the mountain. He held a long knife in his hand, and his eyes revealed a greedy look.
Behind him, the crowd was also holding weapons, looking eager to try.
"No! Everyone, get out of the way!"
The leader noticed the flags on the convoy.
His expression suddenly changed, and he reached out to stop the crowd that was about to rush down.
"What's wrong, boss?"
"We haven't had a single customer in half a month. This is such a big, fat sheep, and it doesn't have many thorns. What are you still hesitating about?"
The man watched as the group below was about to pass the most suitable ambush position and couldn't help but speak anxiously.
"Listen to me, stop right now!"
"If you want to die, go find a rope and hang yourself so you don't drag your brothers down with you!"
The leader snorted coldly, his face grim, and cursed angrily.
"You idiot, didn't you see the flag hanging on that car?!"
"A flag? That's Shen... hiss, could it be the Shen family?"
The person who spoke earlier widened his eyes and exclaimed in surprise.
"Hmph! Now you know fear, huh!"
"It's harvest season in Linggu now. Judging from the appearance of that caravan, it should be the transport commissioner sent by the Shen family to collect rent and taxes."
"It's said that the Shen family's transport commissioner is at the Nascent Soul stage. If you dare to mess with them, you're really asking for trouble!"
"Be more discerning in the future, and don't rush in without thinking twice when you see something good!"
On the mountain,
The leader reprimanded his underlings.
Meanwhile, the team at the foot of the mountain,
Thus, they safely passed through that rugged mountain road.
Only when the rugged mountain road was far behind them and the caravan was in front of them did a young man riding a black dragon horse dare to turn around and look at the place they had just passed. A look of lingering fear flashed in his eyes.
"Father, was someone lying in ambush at that place just now?"
The young man asked the middle-aged man walking ahead.
If Shen Changchuan were here
Surprisingly, he discovered that this young man was none other than Shen Shaochong, who had tried to cause him trouble a year ago after he arrived in Dawan Village, but was scolded back by Shen Shiying, the then-guardian of Dawan Village.
The middle-aged man whom he called "father" was naturally Shen Shiying, the previous garrison commander of Dawan Village.
Judging from their appearance,
It seems that this year it will still be them who are responsible for transferring the family's share of the taxes.
It's unclear what methods they used to retain their positions.
"Hey, you actually figured it out? Looks like you've improved a bit lately."
Shen Shiying turned and glanced at her son.
There was some surprise in his eyes.
He knew his son's character very well.
He has always been an incompetent and ignorant person.
But now,
Yet they could spot an ambush at a glance.
This surprised him, but also made him feel relieved.
"Dad, people change."
"I'd love to be a carefree playboy, but our family has fallen on hard times, we have no foundation, and we're adrift. If we don't learn some skills, how will we survive in the future?"
A hint of smugness appeared on Shen Shaochong's face. "When I passed that section of road just now, I vaguely felt uneasy."
"At the same time, I saw birds chirping and chattering on the mountain, not daring to land in the woods. There must be someone lying in ambush there!"
Shen Shiying nodded slightly.
No words were spoken.
"Speaking of which, including this time, isn't this the eighth time?"
"How did this area become so chaotic? Could something have happened?"
Shen Shaochong pondered for a moment and then asked.
After completing their autumn harvest mission last year, they returned to Tiannan City and focused their main efforts on the city.
It wasn't until the summer harvest that they set off again and set foot in this area.
Therefore, Shen Shaochong knew almost nothing about what had happened in the vicinity.
But his father,
I have connections here, so I should know something.
"Hey, this is a really big deal!"
"Just watch, chaos is about to begin in this desolate land!"
"Even setting aside the idea of rivers of blood flowing into the sea, it was still a turmoil where swords and fires swept across the land!"
"However, these things have nothing to do with us now. Anyway, given our status, I doubt anyone else would dare to make a move."
Hearing his son's question, Shen Shiying also thought of the information he had previously gleaned from some old friends.
He chuckled.
"It really was a stroke of luck."
"If our job of guarding Dawan Village hadn't been taken over, we would be the ones facing this chaos now."
"Now we are the people of the Transport Commissioner, and we are protected by the Transport Commissioner who has reached the Nascent Soul Realm. Outsiders dare not act recklessly."
"But if we stay in that remote and isolated Dawan Village, in this chaotic situation, people can easily cover their faces, take advantage of the darkness to rush into the village, burn, kill, loot, and plunder your wealth. What can your family do then?"
"Shao Chong, when you meet that young master Shao Chuan later, you should be very grateful to him."
"If it weren't for that young master who saved us, how could our whole family have escaped from this turmoil?"
Between Shen Shiying's words,
Some of them were genuinely gloating.
"Haha! That really feels so good!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Shaochong couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Although his father didn't say anything explicitly.
But what can be confirmed from his father's words is that...
That guy named Shen Changchuan is about to be in big trouble!
That could even be a major problem that could destroy them!
now,
Shen Shaochong couldn't help but recall the scenes from a year ago when his whole family was kicked out.
At that moment, I felt as refreshed as if I had drunk an ice-cold can of cola on a hot summer day!
A pent-up frustration in my heart,
He vomited it out at that moment.
"Stop rushing, tone it down."
"Although that kid is going to be in big trouble, let's just have a good laugh in our hearts and not show it so obviously."
Seeing his son's smug look of having avenged his great enemy,
Shen Shiying couldn't help but speak up to remind him.
In any case, that one is the clan chief's son after all, and we can't easily leave any evidence against him.
"Don't worry, Dad, I'll keep my composure and won't show any smugness in front of him, lest I rub salt into his wounds."
A hint of mockery appeared on Shen Shaochong's face.
They calmed down a bit.
at the same time,
the other side,
Shen Chongshan, along with Shen Rongguang and his group, were exhausted and heading towards Dawan Village.
