Moonlight and wind

Chapter 178: Clouds Flying Past

This time, after Shan Boyu handed over the silver, the captain weighed it, and the two negotiated for a few more words. Shan Boyu pointed towards their tea stall, and the captain actually took Dan Niu and Shan Boyu to Shan Zimo's side!

"What? Does this young master have too much money to spend?" The captain looked Shan Zimo up and down with disdain. "You look unfamiliar! You don't seem to be a local. Where did you come from? Do you think you can do whatever you want with a few bucks? I'll give you one chance. You can stop while you're ahead. If you want a second chance, why don't you pay all the money to those beggars at the city gate!"

Shan Zimo wanted to slap the captains guarding the city, but he suppressed his anger and forced a smile on his face, "Gentlemen, I really don't understand the rules of Hailan City. I'm new here, so I hope you can tolerate me!"

Shan Zimo stood up and walked in front of Daniu, "What a coincidence, this is an old acquaintance of mine." After saying this, Daniu looked up at Shan Zimo. Fortunately, the blood on his face prevented others from noticing his surprised expression. "How could I not save him?"

"What? Are you from Yujia Bay too?" The captain suddenly became interested.

"That's where it came from."

"You want to sell dried seafood here too?" The captain asked with a sarcastic tone and a crooked smile.

"I'm just passing by." Shan Zimo clenched his fists and endured it.

"Why are you meddling in other people's business?" The lieutenant rolled his eyes. "If you want to let him go, you can!" The lieutenant used his elbow to poke Daniu's abdomen hard, causing Daniu to bend over in pain. "This little money is not enough!"

"Sir, please name a price!" Shan Zimo's fake smile was almost frozen on his face.

"One hundred taels!"

"One hundred taels?" Daniu straightened up in pain, "Even if you sell me, I'm not worth one hundred taels!"

"No problem! But I don't have that much silver on me," Yuwen Lin was dealing with the membership matters and did not follow, so Shan Zimo's vault was not with him.

"Take it!" Wu Haochen, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up and threw a jade pendant at the captain's feet. "Go to the Blue Sea Shipbuilding Workshop to get the silver! Don't spoil my fun again!"

The lieutenant picked up the jade pendant and walked a few steps forward. Only then did he see Wu Haochen clearly, who was hiding in the shadow of the tea stall. "Could this be the young master of the Blue Sea Shipbuilding Workshop? I am blind!"

"Let him go! Get out of here!" Wu Haochen's cold voice was heard. The captain quickly let go of Da Niu, bowed and slipped away.

"It can be seen that the influence of Yulan Chamber of Commerce here is extraordinary!" Shan Zimo patted Wu Haochen's shoulder with an intriguing smile, and then pulled Daniu to sit down.

"Are you also from the Yulan Chamber of Commerce?" Daniu leaned against Wu Haochen, who was drinking tea, and said cautiously, "Aren't you going to kill us all? Why did you save me today?"

"Brother Daniu," Shan Zimo tried to calm him down and handed him a cup of tea. "We came from the north and passed by Yujia Bay. We were worried about where to stay for the night, but your father took us in. Actually, we still owe your father a favor!"

"Alas, I am also incompetent. My father should be enjoying his life at this age, but he has to suffer with us!" Daniu was very upset. At this time, Shan Boyu took out medicine from his small bag and treated his wounds with Zizhong.

"There are many villages and towns around Hailan City. Why are you so harsh on Yujiawan?" Shan Zimo asked puzzledly.

"They say that the location of Yujiawan Sea affects the Feng Shui of Hailan City. Isn't this nonsense?" Daniu said angrily. Suddenly he pondered for a moment, "I think it has something to do with one person!"

"Who is it?" Everyone pricked up their ears.

“Yun Fei!” Yun Zhenyu glared at the luxurious throne in the Yunqi Longxiong Hall. “You are so bold!”

"Master, I know I was wrong!" Yun Fei knelt in front of Yun Zhenyu, "But I also want to avenge you!"

"Nonsense! How dare you make decisions on your own without my order!" Yun Zhenyu stood up from his chair and paced back and forth in front of Yun Fei, "You almost ruined my plan!"

"I just want to seize Shan Zimo's Martial King and suppress the momentum of Xueyingtang..."

Before Yun Fei could finish, Yun Zhenyu slapped him in the face, "How could I not know what you are thinking? I advise you to stop thinking about Ruotong as soon as possible!"

Yun Fei knelt there with his head down, clenching his back teeth tightly.

"Here is an errand, hurry up and do it!" Yun Zhenyu took out a small piece of paper from his sleeve and threw it in front of Yun Fei, "Make sure to do it cleanly! If you leave any clues, I can't protect you!"

Yun Fei picked up the note from the ground, opened it and saw three words written on it - Yuwen Lin!

"The time is tonight. The boy will attend the initiation banquet held for him. We need to seize the opportunity and make a quick decision!"

"Yes, Master!" Yun Fei said, put the note into his mouth, swallowed it, and slowly stood up.

“Yun Fei,” Yun Zhenyu’s face suddenly changed, becoming much kinder, and he held Yun Fei’s shoulders, “I think so highly of you, I will definitely find you a good wife in the future! As long as you do your job well, your people will live well!”

"Yun Fei? Are you talking about the third disciple of the Yunyin Sword Sect?" Shan Zimo noticed something and approached Da Niu and asked softly, "Does that mean Yun Fei is also from Yujiawan?"

"That's right. According to seniority, he also belongs to our tribe." Da Niu was still grimacing in pain, but said nothing.

"Since your tribe has such a powerful warrior, shouldn't you benefit from it? How did you end up like this?" He pointed out his doubts in one glance and one sentence.

"Who said it wasn't true? At that time, Yun Zhenyu came to Yujia Bay and selected him. His parents were very proud of him, and we were happy too. We even personally used a boat to send them to the dock of Yunyin Sword Sect. Alas!" Daniu sighed, "But now, the sea is gone, and the boat has become useless in the yard. We, the young and strong, carried the boat to the East China Sea, but who knew that we would have to pay to go out to sea!"

"Does Yun Fei's family also live such a hard life?" Shan Zimo asked curiously.

"I don't know! Yunfei has been practicing martial arts in the mountains for five or six years. I heard that he had reached the level of martial arts master at that time and was the most outstanding among his classmates!" Daniu recalled, "But not long after, his parents moved away from Yujia Bay, and then the sea outside our village was filled up! Some people in the village said that Yunfei knew about this a long time ago, so he took his parents away early! So, the angry people in the village gathered in front of Yunfei's house and set fire to his house! Since then, we have never seen him and his family again!"

"Ha! Things are getting interesting!" Shan Zimo narrowed his eyes and smiled faintly.
