My Journey to the West on the Heavenly Road

Chapter 33

"The strong man's sharp shot today, don't let that Yang Youji be more beautiful than before."

Jiang Yuan took five thousand and boarded the big boat. The handsome young man Sima Yan greeted him enthusiastically, and praised Jiang Yuan to the sky as soon as he opened his mouth.

Yang Youji was a sharpshooter of the Chu State during the Warring States Period, and he was famous in ancient and modern times.

The so-called "hundred steps through Yang" is praised for Yang Youji's archery skills.

Compared with the enthusiastic Sima Yan, the other three are far from friendly.

Wang Huai, who was wearing an indigo robe, looked at Jiang Yuan with obvious disgust.

And Jiang Yuan is most concerned about the brothers and sisters of the Qi family.

Qi Bo was expressionless, with disdain hidden in his eyes. Although his younger sister Qi Yuan was a little probing, she didn't give a smile.

Aren't you paying a lot of money to recruit strange people? I, Jiang Yuan, let alone a corporal, why don't you even give me a good face?

Where did I offend you?
Jiang Yuan was at a loss, completely confused.

Forget it, anyway, it was a ride with the wind, and I made some gold without paying the travel expenses.

"Under Sima Yan, what do you call a strong man?"

Sima Yan didn't seem to be aware of the attitude of the people around him, and ran to Jiang Yuan's body without stopping, and stretched out his hand to pull Jiang Yuan's arm.

Being so enthusiastic while having such a stinky face made Jiang Yuan very uncomfortable.

Dodging the approaching hand, Jiang Yuan clasped his fists and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Under Jiang Yuan, I have some skills to go to the Aolai country, which is better than China in the east, and I would like to go with you."

Faced with such an awkward situation, Jiang Yuan didn't bother to act as a mercenary anymore, he picked up the gold and put on an equal attitude.

Sima Yan laughed out loud, not caring, but showing appreciation.

Wang Huai interrupted suddenly, looked Jiang Yuan up and down, and said in a strange way: "Since this brother Jiang has great abilities, why is he still in such embarrassment?"

This person was trembling with Jiang Yuan, and at the same time secretly despised Jiang Yuan's behavior of asking the guards for gold just now.

"Who is Your Excellency?"

Jiang Yuan glanced over, Wang Huai immediately straightened up, raised his chin, and said proudly, "Wang Huai of Huai County."

"Oh."

Jiang Yuan let out an oh, then turned his head.

On this boat, the only people he was interested in were the brothers and sisters of the Qi family who were Qi refiners.

As for Sima Yan, and Wang Huai of Huai County, Jiang Yuan didn't care, no matter what kind of rich and noble relatives they were.

It's a pity that the brothers and sisters of the Qi family have a cold attitude, and he doesn't want to have a hot face and a cold ass.

I was too lazy to exchange pleasantries with these people, so I turned to Sima Yan and said, "I'm going to rest first and wait for the boat to sail. Can I have a separate cabin?"

"Independent cabin?!"

That "oh", and the blatant ignorance, Wang Huai was already furious, and now he shouted violently, pointing at Jiang Yuan and cursing:

"The third son and I don't have separate cabins, you are just a recruited guard, what right do you have to show off!"

With that said, he pointed at the brothers and sisters of the Qi family:
"Your bluffing archery skills are comparable to brother Qi's or Miss Qi's orthodox Taoism?"

Although he knew that Wang Huai was fighting, Qi Bo was still aroused.

At this time, in his eyes, Jiang Yuan has become a small magic weapon that doesn't know how to practice, but is self-righteous, arrogant and arrogant.

"Under Qi Bo, I also have some weak skills, and I would like to ask your Excellency to teach me a thing or two."

Qi Bo's eyes were fierce, and he stretched out his hand to pull out the golden mace on his back, preparing to teach Jiang Yuan a lesson.

"Brother Qi, stop!"

Sima Yan stepped over and held Qi Bo down, then turned to stare at Wang Huai:

"Cousin, I know you are angry, so come at me and don't blame others."

"Also, I've decided that I must go to sea today!"

Wang Huai's face turned pale with shock, he didn't care about Jiang Yuan, and hurriedly stopped him: "Third Young Master, don't be impulsive, calm down!"

Sima Yan ignored his terrified cousin, turned around and smiled at Jiang Yuan:
"Cousin is just a little impatient, he is very nice, don't blame Brother Jiang."

"It seems that you are Xijing, it's okay, I'll ask someone to make a cabin for you."

Jiang Yuan has already realized that he said something wrong.

A ten-foot-long boat may look big, but it must carry enough supplies to sail across the sea, and there are not only boatmen and sailors on board, but also many guards and attendants.

In this way, no matter how big the ship is, it may not be enough.

So as Wang Huai said, even the owner Sima Yan didn't have a separate cabin.

Since it was his own mistake and Sima Yan was so sincere, Jiang Yuan naturally didn't want to get angry with Wang Huai and Qi Bo.

"Actually, I didn't make it clear."

Jiang Yuan seriously explained: "I just want an independent space, which is convenient for meditation and meditation. It doesn't have to be a cabin, just make an empty space in the bottom warehouse or cargo hold where there is no one."

"I see."

Sima Yan secretly heaved a sigh of relief. If he really wanted to provide Jiang Yuan with an independent cabin, he didn't care, but he had to worry about the face of the Qi family brothers and sisters.

Although the contact was misunderstood, the atmosphere on the deck was still not relaxed.

Wang Huai glared at Jiang Yuan for a while, and looked at Sima Yan sadly for a while, begging.

Qi Bo looked coldly at him, and the girl Qi Yuan also looked unkind.

OK, let's go.

Jiang Yuan left directly with the attendants recruited by Sima Yan, first sent the five thousand horse to the bottom warehouse, and then went to the water storage cargo hold.

Because the environment of the water storage cargo tank is relatively friendly, the place arranged for Jiang Yuan is right there.

Several attendants quickly cleaned the narrow cabin, arranged the buckets neatly, laid out a clean mat for Jiang Yuan, brought some bedding, oil lamps, and a futon.

After some rectification, the dark cabin actually felt like a quiet room for practice.

As expected of a servant of a rich family, he is indeed capable.

After finishing, the attendant also warned: "My lord, please pay attention to some buckets, don't get hit by it."

"Thank you." Jiang Yuan put down the basket and nodded.

After the attendants retreated respectfully, the rat demon jumped out of the basket, and walked around the cabin with a golden light, and said very satisfied: "I like this place."

"You mouse, you must like this kind of dark place, be honest."

Jiang Yuan grabbed the scurrying yellow-haired rat, threw it back into the basket, then sat cross-legged on the futon, and asked the old monkey in a low voice:

"Old Monkey, besides the brother and sister, are there other capable people on this boat?"

The old monkey released his divine sense to search around, and replied: "There are only a few warriors with sufficient energy and blood, and there are no other practitioners."

Jiang Yuan's expression darkened, "It's not safe to say so."

"I hope they can recruit a few more strange people."

But the old monkey said, "I don't have much hope."

"As long as a monk with a bit of pursuit, either stays away from the mortal world and cultivates the way of immortality, or keeps his head down and asks for the heavenly talisman, how can he wander around."

Jiang Yuan asked the brothers and sisters of the Qi family: "What about the brothers and sisters, what's the situation with them?"

The old monkey pondered for a moment, then replied: "I guess they are alchemists whose masters have declined, or who have simply broken their lineage."

"Otherwise, at their age and their cultivation level just starting out, even if they are practicing, they will go to the door to ask for a Lingxiao Tianlu, and they will not just be followers of others."

"However," the old monkey said, reminding Jiang Yuan suddenly:

"Don't underestimate these folk alchemists. Although they can't get the right result, they often have secret methods and are especially good at fighting to the death."

It's easy to see why.

There must be many disputes in the rivers and lakes all year round. To survive, there must be extraordinary means.

After Jiang Yuan nodded and remembered the warning, he returned to the original conversation:

"Even so, I still feel a little unsafe to face that unknown siren."

The old monkey guessed what Jiang Yuan meant: "Do you want to take Xiaolonghu Pill?"

"That's right, instead of relying on other people, it's better to strengthen your own strength."

Jiang Yuan took out the golden elixir and said impatiently, "Take the elixir tonight."
