Longevity begins with an old woman

Chapter 394
"Master! We are coming from the village and have been walking for a day. See if you can be accommodating!"

A villager who was good at this and used to do small businesses in various villages came forward to communicate with the guards.

While speaking, he quietly stuffed some copper coins in the past.

If it's a big city, it's normal to close the city gates at night to prevent ordinary people from entering.

But Lefeng City is just a small county town. Even the walls are in dilapidated condition. The city gates are only for decoration. There is not much difference between closed and unclosed.

The reason why they are prevented from entering the city is just to get some benefits.

He had done a lot of this before, so he would rush on the road instead of finding a place to rest halfway and wait until he entered the city the next day.

Who would have thought that the guard leader took the money, weighed it twice, and suddenly cursed: "Bullshit! You dare to take out such a small amount of money, and you are sending a beggar away! Get out of here!"

Hearing the words of the guard leader, the villagers in charge of dealing with it couldn't help but turn blue and white, obviously very angry.

This was not the first time he had done something like this. The money given was definitely not small, but he did not expect that the other party was so greedy.

He had no choice but to endure his distress, took out some more money, and handed it to the other party with a smile.

"My lord, it's a villain who doesn't understand the rules, and I hope you don't remember the villain's mistakes!"

"Humph!"

The guard leader took the silver, weighed it twice, and put it in his arms, seemingly reluctantly agreeing.

"check!"

The guard leader greeted his subordinates, and walked towards the bullock cart with a sharp knife in his hand.

Xu Mu, who was standing by the side of the car, witnessed all this and did not speak.

With his strength, if you want to overpower others, it's not impossible to be strong, but if it can be done by spending some money, it is obviously more suitable to be stronger than him.

Faced with the approaching guards, the villagers naturally did not dare to stop them. Of course, they did not need to stop them, as it was not a contraband.

Instead, they have a sense of pride.

After all, hunting monsters is quite a feat.

The guard leader frowned, and used the long knife in his hand to pry open the straw mat above.

The reason why they were covered with straw mats was not to hide their eyes from others, but because they were afraid that the body of the black bear monster would be damaged quickly by direct sunlight.

The reason why they rushed into the city was because they were afraid that the black fur monster's body would be damaged on the road, and that it would be too late to claim the reward.

The head of the guard, who had felt a little strange about the things on the car, saw the black fur monster lying on it, his face changed in fright, and he couldn't help taking a step back.

The guards on the side also pulled out their sharp blades fiercely, their faces turned pale, obviously frightened.

From this point, it can be seen that this kind of monster transformed by a wild warrior is rare even in the county town, otherwise these people would not be so frightened.

"This, this...is a monster?!!"

The guard leader asked some uncertain questions.

This once again confirms the rarity of monsters, and also shows that there are not many wild warriors.

"Sir, you are indeed very discerning. This is exactly the demon causing trouble near our village. It was hunted and killed by Brother Xu Mu just yesterday. We brought him here because we wanted to go to the county government to collect the reward."

The villager in charge of the negotiations said with some pride.

Seeing the originally arrogant guard in such a frightened state, the villagers suddenly felt superior.

Although they were worse than each other when they met for the first time, they suddenly felt superior at this moment.

What about city people?Can city people hunt monsters?Not as good as our village!
That's what they think now.

One by one looked elated.

Xu Mu noticed the change in the expression of the guard leader.The other party was surprised at first, then his eyes flickered, and then he showed uncontrollable surprise.

"Whether it's a monster or not, it's not up to you to decide!"

The guard took the lead and rejected everyone's arguments, then turned to look at Xu Mu, narrowed his eyes slowly, and said in disbelief, "Did you kill him?"

With Xu Mu's youthful face and broken arm, no matter how you look at it, it is impossible to kill such a monster.

"Not bad!" Xu Mu nodded and said calmly.

The guard leader looked him up and down, not knowing what he was thinking, and then suddenly said: "It's important, you wait here first, I'll report it."

After finishing speaking, the leader of the guard ordered his subordinates to keep an eye on everyone, while he hurried into the city.

Xu Mu frowned, but he didn't stop it.

If it was him, it wouldn't matter if he took some other measures, but now a group of ordinary villagers followed him, and if there was any change, these people might be in trouble.

He has confidence in his own strength and is not afraid of anything, but ordinary people don't look down on him.

But these villagers can't do it, so he still thinks to wait and see what happens, and do his best to avoid unnecessary complications and cause trouble.

Not long after, the guard leader led soldiers in armor, riding a group of strange horses with antlers, and the leader was a purple-robed young man with a vain breath and a pale face.

There was excitement and anxiety in his expression.

"Go away! Where's the corpse? Where is it?" the purple-robed youth shouted, waving his whip.

"Young master is on that bullock cart!"

The guard leader hurriedly jumped off his horse and said, blaming the ox cart in the crowd.

The guards who were left behind immediately pushed the villagers aside, leaving a path open for the purple-robed young man to come forward and check.

The young man in purple robe did not dismount, and drove the horse directly to the front of the car. Then he pulled out the reins in his hand, and the strange horse's front hooves jumped high.

Seeing the half-man, half-bear corpse on the bullock cart, the purple-robed young man's eyes showed a look of fanaticism.

"It's really a monster, it really is a monster!"

The purple-robed youth jumped off the horse, threw the reins in his hand to a clever guard, then walked to the bullock cart, inspected the black fur monster's body up and down, and his eyes became more and more joyful.

At this time, not to mention Xu Mu, even the villagers who didn't have much experience felt something was wrong.

It's just that the purple-robed youth's ostentation is a bit big, followed by twenty or thirty soldiers in armor and riding horses. These soldiers are full of murderous looks, and they are full of sturdy aura. They don't look like ordinary soldiers.

With so many elite escorts, any fool knows that the identity of the purple-robed youth is not simple.

The villagers were frightened by this situation and did not dare to say anything.

"Someone! Take it away!"

After examining the corpse, the purple-robed youth said bluntly.

The guards stepped forward immediately, some were pushing carts, some were covering seats, and some were driving carts, as if pulling them into the city.

The villagers didn't know what to do for a while, and they all looked at Xu Mu. After all, this was Xu Mu's trophy.

"and many more!"

Xu Mu stepped forward and put his hand on the guard driving the car.

In an instant, the eyes of all the soldiers and guards fell on Xu Mu, and their eyes were full of oppression.

"Who are you? How dare you block my way!"

The purple-robed youth said coldly, then raised the whip in his hand, and whipped it towards Xu Mu.
