Chapter 195: Chapter 195: Weapons Confiscated

The book seemed to hit them hard, and although they were dressed thickly, they could still feel the group exerting considerable force.

All five stretched out their hands to block but refrained from counterattacking; showing weakness was best at this point.

"Stop hitting, stop hitting, everyone, we’re just passing through Misty World.

We mean no harm, we mean no harm!"

Lu Chao felt that since he had led these people here, he now had to step forward.

Sure enough, the snowball throwing stopped, and someone emerged from a shop on the right.

"Who are you, and what are you doing in Misty World?"

Seeing an opportunity, Lu Chao quickly stepped to the right and, groveling, said, "Brother, I’m here for a job. A friend told me they needed a bartender, so I came."

Jhiang Yuan felt that if there were cigarettes available, he would definitely smoke one right then.

"Here for a job interview? All of you?"

Lu Chao glanced at Song Yi, having dealt with this group enough to know they all looked to him as their leader.

"What, you’re not together?"

The man grew impatient, visibly on guard.

Lu Chao hurriedly stepped forward, smiling apologetically.

"Not at all, brother, it’s just that we’ve nothing left to eat at home.

These few friends of mine wanted to buy some goods."

The man scrutinized them from head to toe, his judgmental gaze unmistakable.

"Buying stuff, huh. Did you bring money?"

"Yes, yes, brother, don’t worry; we know the rules."

Zhang Kaiyang immediately stepped forward, pulled out a half pack of cigarettes from his pocket, and handed it over.

Now, this was a valuable item; the man’s eyes visibly brightened.

"Good lad, you’ve got some sense. Come with us."

"Alright, thank you, brother."

Zhang Kaiyang gave everyone a look and started walking ahead.

Jhiang Yuan looked around, sensing that each storefront seemed occupied.

Should a fight break out, they would certainly be wiped out in an instant.

"What are you looking around for? Hurry up and come register."

They had now arrived at a very small, unimposing storefront.

Inside was a fire pit, likely just lit, as you could still hear the sparks popping.

"Alright..."

Lu Chao went to sign in, followed by Song Yi and the others.

The man had already instructed them and he left, probably on patrol.

"Alright, you, looking for a job, go with him."

"Ah, alright, alright, thanks, brother."

Lu Chao looked back at everyone, nodded and bowed, and followed the man without even having time to say goodbye.

Ye Mianmian also nodded to him, signaling this might be their last encounter in this lifetime.

"All of you, take off your weapons."

On hearing this, Zhang Kaiyang became anxious; they weren’t allowed to carry anything.

If a fight ensued later, they’d be at a real disadvantage.

"Hurry up, don’t dawdle..."

"Alright, alright..."

Song Yi understood that under someone else’s roof, you had to bow your head.

Jhiang Yuan didn’t bring much, having lightened his load earlier.

Now that they’d secured their possessions, without discussing it further, should these people take a fancy to them,

and refuse to return them, there was nothing they could do. It would be a loss.

She wanted to take Song Yi’s sleeve arrows, but someone there was watching continuously; there was no opportunity.

After collecting all the weapons, Zhang Kaiyang, somewhat reluctantly, nodded and groveled, "Brother, could we get our things back when we return?"

"Ha, as if we want your junk."

The man said no more and led the four into another storefront.

It seemed Taurus Village was either occupied or requisitioned.

This area was all their people; this truly was a sense of dominating power.

Not to mention, the guards held real weapons in their hands.

This time, for the seeds, they had really taken a big risk.

Inside the store, there was a table and a chair at the front.

At the back, there was a campaign bed, likely for temporary rest.

"What do you guys want to buy?"

The speaker was a burly man with a full beard, looking quite intimidating.

Zhang Kaiyang, seeing the weapon tucked at his waist, was quite frightened.

He didn’t dare to talk much, fortunately, he was standing at the back.

Song Yi was the first, with Jhiang Yuan and Ye Mianmian in the middle.

There were too many men around, he didn’t dare to risk it, having girls in front and back was very dangerous.

"We would like some seeds..."

"Haha..."

The bearded man burst out laughing, causing the people nearby to follow suit.

It seemed as if they heard a joke; they laughed until tears came out.

"There are no seeds here; you’ve come to the wrong place."

Song Yi wasn’t upset, he was very careful today, his aura much subdued.

"Big brother, do you have corn, millet, paddy or something like that, even with shells would be fine..."

He had made it very clear, now it was up to them to respond.

The man snorted coldly but didn’t laugh anymore.

"Kid, you need to understand, with the weather this cold, even if you had seeds, you might not be able to plant them next year."

"Big brother, I know, the weather is too abnormal, next year might be unpredictable.

Please help us contact [someone]."

The bearded man listened, but said nothing more.

"Did you bring money?"

"Yes, yes."

The man waved his hand, and someone from behind came over.

After whispering to him, he motioned for several people to follow.

The person held a gun, looking like a guard from TV dramas.

Jhiang Yuan didn’t understand these things, she could only judge by appearance.

They walked along, and now it had gotten very cold, it was almost four o’clock.

Time was pressing, if it got much later, they wouldn’t be able to return today.

Jhiang Xingzhi and Qin Yue must be very worried about her.

Thankfully, she had taken precautions beforehand, hoping the upcoming trade would go smoothly.

The man led them along to a very small passageway.

It was extremely narrow, just wide enough for one person, and not someone too stout.

After walking about three hundred meters, they finally saw a very intense light.

"When we get there, don’t talk nonsense, answer what’s asked, understand?"

"Don’t worry, big brother, we know the ropes haha!"

Hearing this, the man seemed quite pleased.

He led them through the narrow passageway, then into a rather lavish hall.

From outside, it wasn’t apparent, but inside it was another world!

Marble walls, along with an oversized bar.

There were leather sofas outside and ornaments of mountains and flowing water.

The most surprising thing was that it was actually very warm inside, probably around twenty degrees Celsius plus.

Jhiang Yuan looked around, it felt like a foot spa hall, the decoration was very similar.

Perhaps the boss used to be in this business.

"Xiao Hu, is Sister Qin here?

These people, they’ve come to buy things."
