I have a knife, out of the sheath can kill monsters

Chapter 48
"Beigui, did you go to Liangcheng Mansion to study?" A girl with a moderate complexion looked at Ji Chen strangely and asked.

The girl is sixteen or seventeen years old, and she exudes the boldness of a barren person.

Ji Chen was dressed in brocade and green shirt, with a long utensil wrapped in cloth strips stuck in his waist.

This is the normal attire of a scholar.

The utensil at the waist is naturally regarded as a sword by the girl, but there are very few girls who put the sword on the waist like Ji Chen.

Although Ji Chen also has the aloofness of a barren man, his attire and demeanor are incompatible with this barren and this caravan.

Ji Chen wears the black flag official uniform of the Demon Suppressing Division, one is because the official uniform of the Demon Suppressing Division has a defensive effect, and ordinary swords are difficult to hurt, and the other is that he does not want to be too conspicuous.

After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, Zhenyaosi is definitely a taboo existence.

Facing the girl's curious question, Ji Chen answered casually: "Reading, it counts!"

It was already the sixth day after leaving Fenglin Town, and Ji Chen came across this caravan, which happened to be the caravan of the Chenjia Chamber of Commerce in Liangcheng Prefecture.

The Chenjia Chamber of Commerce is also the largest chamber of commerce in Liangcheng Mansion. The chamber of commerce often has some teams traveling through the wasteland to do some trade with the Snow Clan in the wasteland.

This kind of caravan usually has expert escorts. Many single gang members can pay some fees to the caravan and apply to travel with the caravan. Now that they are protected, they will not be alone.

Especially when staying at night, there are many people can also guard against the attack of monsters.

For caravans, the incorporation of running order gangs can also increase additional income.

This caravan is relatively large, with a total of 50 people. Ji Chen paid two taels of silver to the caravan and got the opportunity to accompany him.

Well, the main reason is that he doesn't know the way.

The people in the caravan only regard Ji Chen as a student who is going to study in Liangcheng. After all, the new year has passed, and the school students have also ushered in the school season.

At this moment, the caravan is resting, and the guards and men are making a fire and cooking.

Ji Chen also sat and rested beside a bonfire, eating the broth brought by the guards.

"If only I could study too!" The girl looked envious.

Her name is Lv Xiaoyu, and she lived with her father and elder brother in the borderlands since she was a child, traveling between the wasteland and Liangcheng, so she was very envious of studying.

"Huh! There is a fart, and a useless scholar!" An unharmonious voice sounded next to him.

The one who spoke was Lu Xiaoyu's elder brother, Lu Meng, who felt very upset when he saw his sister being seduced by a pretty boy.

Ever since this little boy came to the team, his younger sister had been circling around him every three days, and he felt that her elbow was starting to turn outward.

"Vulgar martial artist!" Lu Xiaoyu directly replied to his brother.

In her opinion, her elder brother and father are vulgar warriors who know how to fight all day long, and if she keeps messing with them, she will become a tomboy.

Lu Xiaoyu pointed to Po Jun at Ji Chen's waist, and asked curiously, "Is this a sword?"

Ji Chen nodded, and didn't bother to explain, basically most people would think it was a sword when they saw Po Jun for the first time.

"You know how to use a sword?" Lu Xiaoyu was even more curious. She only knew how to use a sword, and she still followed her father's five tigers breaking the door sword technique.

Ji Chen said: "Six arts of a gentleman, riding and archery is a compulsory subject."

"Wow!...!" Lu Xiaoyu was full of envy.

"It's just a fancy sword dance!" Lu Meng said coldly.

Sword dancing and sword use are two different things. In his opinion, Ji Chen holds a sword for decoration, isn't it the same for all scholars.

"Xiao Yu, come with me, I have something to tell you."

Lu Meng picked up Xiao Yu and walked to the side.

"What?"

Xiao Yu struggled for a while, but she didn't break free, so she followed her brother and pulled her away.

After walking a hundred meters away, Lu Meng put down Xiao Yu's hand, and said in a deep voice, "That scholar named Ji Beigui, don't get too close to him, it's not suitable for you?"

"Why, don't you care about my affairs!"

Children who grew up in the borderlands are wild and have their own personalities. Lu Xiaoyu has been running a business with her father and brother since she was a child. She must make her own choice, and her father and brother must not interfere.

Her father and brother also promised her to make up for her guilt.

Lu Meng continued to persuade: "Look at his clothes. One set of clothes can cover our living expenses for two months. He is a son of a wealthy family. No one from a wealthy family has a good thing. You and him are not from the same world. You Have you forgotten how your mother disappeared?"

This time Lu Xiaoyu did not refute Lu Meng, she glanced at Ji Chen's location.

"Don't you think he's pretty?"

Lu Meng:? ? ?
I co-authored it for a long time and it was useless!
The conversation between the two was heard by Ji Chen verbatim, to Ji Chen there was no difference between a distance of one meter and a distance of 100 meters.

After resting, the convoy continued to set off. Two hours later, when they passed a fork in the road, they stopped suddenly.

There were a few vicious men in front of them, driving a group of ragged civilians into the mountains.

The line stopped, ready to let this group of people pass first.

"Why did it stop?" Ji Chen asked.

"When you encounter gods, disciples and angels rushing to the mountain, let them pass first, otherwise you may be in trouble." A guard next to him explained.

The gods and immortals chased the mountain?

This is the first time Ji Chen has heard of it.

Finally, with Lu Xiaoyu's explanation, he finally understood what driving the mountain meant.

The so-called driving the mountains means treating the common people like livestock and driving them to the mountains to feed monsters.

The gods and angels are people who believe in these monsters, and regularly bring food for the monsters. In contrast, the monsters will give them some abilities.

For these gods and emissaries, this is the gift of the gods and their way of practice.

This method is even worse than the Shenhuo Cult.

A faint killing intent emanated from Ji Chen's body.Lu Meng glanced at Ji Chen and warned, "You'd better not act recklessly, this will implicate our caravan."

This group of people in ragged clothes, old and young, male and female, were moving forward dully under the urging of those ferocious men, their eyes had lost their light.

There was a little girl in the crowd, who had been staring at the caravan with her head tilted. There were fear, fear, confusion about unknown fate, and expectations for life in her eyes.

Perhaps because of the indoctrination of adults, she already knew what the fate she was about to face was to be eaten by monsters. She didn't cry, but there was strong desire and expectation in her eyes
She didn't want to die, and she hoped that the people in the caravan could help her.

At a young age, she has endured things that she shouldn't have to bear at her age.

However, everyone in the caravan lowered their eyes and looked cold. No one would dare to intervene in the affairs of the great immortals in the mountains.
