A refined and elegant young man slowly disembarked from the carriage.
Adorned with a gold crown and resplendent clothes, his handso face was unparalleled in grace.
Following him was a short, chubby old man in his seventies, with kind and benevolent expressions, who frequently bowed to the onlooking villagers walking around.
Five muscular n alighted from the two carriages behind them.
These n, possessing robust physiques and orderly deanour, carried large boxes on their shoulders after dismounting.
A sharp-eyed observer in the village comnted: ” Look, aren’t these the sa n who helped our village last night?”
“Yes, exactly!
I recognize that robust man with the square face; it was he who rescued my second uncle from the house yesterday.
He didn’t even stay for a cup of tea and left imdiately.
Today, I must express my profound gratitude to him.
Hey!
Valiant man, wait for …”
Square face, Valiant,
Chai Feng’s face darkened at hearing these words.
He clenched his jaws and ignored the villager’s call, striding off into another direction.
Ever since they followed their Master to this poor remote and deserted village, there wasn’t much progress.
But he certainly had several new nicknas now – Square-faced miser, Endless Runner, Square-faced valiant…
All thanks to that detestable woman!
That woman with her endless sches had successfully enchanted their Master who was otherwise indifferent to won.
She would influence him with her choice, and he wouldn’t go against her words.
For her, the Master would even dare to defy the Empress, causing her undue worry, and to publicly confront Tianjizi, disregarding his own safety.
And, of course, for her, the Master would even deploy them, the secret guards, to rescue the villagers and pose as her benevolent figures donating silver taels as disaster aid, all of these were not surprising!
“Hey, valiant man, don’t you recognize ?
I’m Mu Sanniu, the nephew of the old man who you rescued last night…”
The villager recognizing Chai Feng caught up with him and started talking familiarly, underneath a big tree at the entrance of the Clan Leader’s house.
“Thanks to you, my second uncle was not crushed to death last night.
The doctor said if the rescue had been just a bit late, he couldn’t have survived…”
“…”
“Valiant man, I’d like to invite you to my house for a drink.
We’re opening a jar of fatty pork my mother pickled at the beginning of the year, co and give it a try, it’s delicious…”
“…”
“Um, valiant man, are you not in the mood to talk?”
“…”
Mu Sanniu kept babbling for quite a while without getting a single response from the square-faced valiant man, whose face got darker by the minute.
The thickheaded Sanniu misunderstood, thinking that the box on his shoulder was too heavy to speak, so he kindly offered: “Valiant man, you must be tired.
Co, co, take a rest.
I’ll carry the box for you.”
Upon hearing this, Chai Feng gave him a cold smile and handed the box over to Mu Sanniu without hesitation.
The mont the box landed on Mu Sanniu’s shoulder, it imdiately drooped down as though he had a ton weight on it.
“Oh my god!”
Mu Sanniu exclaid, ‘thud’ toppling onto the ground.
Chai Feng, with his quick reflexes, caught the box in mid-air and placed it back onto his shoulder, turning his back on him without giving a second glance.
“What on earth is in here?
Why is it so heavy?”
Massaging his sore shoulder, Mu Sanniu murmured to himself while sitting on the ground.
