Chapter 214 Betrayal
Chapter 214 Betrayal
Hearing everyone shouting "Hero Hong", a sharp look was cast towards Shan Zimo who was sitting in the shadow. It was a simple look, but it made Shan Zimo shudder!
"If I'm recognized here, I'll be executed on the spot!" Shan Zimo buried his head in his chest and sighed secretly, "I'm still a step too late. I have to think of a way to get out!"
"One hundred thousand taels," Shan Zimo echoed with false excitement, "We have to cheer up. Even if it's only fifty taels of silver, it will be enough to make us happy for a while!"
"Master Hong is right!" The bounty hunters all complimented him, which caught Dao Sheng's attention.
She jumped up, thrust the sword in her hand back into the scabbard with a swish, took off her bamboo hat, and revealed a face that was as brave as any man, with a heroic and majestic beauty between her eyebrows!
She walked a few steps to Shan Zimo, took off the big knife from her waist, and placed the whole knife on Shan Zimo's shoulder! The other bounty hunters saw this and quickly left the city gate. Only the three of them were left in the dark city gate.
"Where did it come from?" A voice as cold as jade came from above Shan Zimo's head. Every word was so crisp and cold, just like the sound of cold jade hitting each other, which made people tremble with fear!
"From Hailan City." Shan Zimo replied with his head down.
"Your accent doesn't sound like it!" Dao Sheng said as he lifted Shan Zimo's chin with the knife in his hand, forcing Shan Zimo to look up.
"I've been traveling around the Wu Kingdom for many years and don't have a permanent place to live, so I don't have an accent." Shan Zimo squinted his eyes, with a forced smile on his face, his heart pounding as he accepted Dao Sheng's scrutiny.
"These losers are flattering you so much, it seems you have some skills!" Dao Sheng looked at the man for a while in the dim light, but he couldn't see anything from his pitch-black face, so he simply put away his knife and hung it back on his waist.
"I only know some mediocre skills to save my life!" Shan Zimo answered humbly.
"You don't have the ability to catch the criminal!" Dao Sheng said, then stood up and walked out of the city gate and headed towards the inn in Yanyu Town.
After seeing Dao Sheng leave, the bounty hunters carefully returned to Shan Zimo.
"Look at what she's capable of!" The bounty hunter complained harshly, "This woman is cruel and arrogant, and now she's not even a man!"
"Which man dares to want her?" The bounty hunters laughed secretly. "She's lying on the bed. I'm afraid even if I clamp her knees together, she won't be able to open them!" The bounty hunters burst into laughter!
"What is this move of clamping the knees inward?" Shan Zimo asked Shan Boyu as he approached him.
Shan Boyu blushed and shook his head quickly, "How would I know? Don't ask too much, it's definitely not good!"
"Master Hong, if Shan Zimo really comes to Yanyu Town, are you sure you can capture him?" There was anticipation in the eyes of the bounty hunters, as if the 100,000 taels were at stake!
"Let's see!" Shan Zimo laughed, stood up and stretched, and called Shan Boyu, "Let's go and take a look outside the city gate!"
"Look! He is worthy of being the president of the Yanyu Bounty Chamber of Commerce, so enthusiastic!" The bounty collectors praised him endlessly!
"Young Master, we are all out, let's run!" Shan Boyu leaned against Shan Zimo and whispered, "If we stay any longer, we will definitely be exposed!"
"Then what are you waiting for? Run!" As soon as Shan Zimo finished speaking, his internal energy poured into his legs, and he jumped out, running towards the dense forest!
"Master Hong!" The bounty hunters behind him saw Shan Zimo running away and followed him while running and shouting, "Have you found any trace of Shan Zimo?"
"Master Hong, come on! We are here to surround you from all sides!"
"We must get him!" The shouts of encouragement from dozens of bounty hunters echoed throughout the dense forest!
The sound behind him was getting smaller and smaller. Shan Zimo was feeling proud of having gotten rid of those bounty hunters when suddenly a man appeared from behind a big tree!
The two of them collided hard! This time, they almost knocked each other several feet away!
Shan Zimo gathered his inner strength, calmed his mind, and ran to the man, "Fang Hai?"
"Ouch!" Fang Hai stood up from the ground with difficulty and sat up, "Master Hong, are you flying? You knocked me out!"
"Fang Hai, why are you back again?" Shan Boyu stepped forward to help him up and picked up the bag behind him.
"Aren't we going to the town to sell deerskin?" Fang Hai grimaced in pain, took the bag handed to him by Shan Boyu and put it on his back, "Master Hong and Master Guo, are you chasing the wanted criminal?" Fang Hai looked around vigilantly, fearing that there might be wanted criminals lying in ambush nearby.
"I feel bored staying in town, let's go out and stretch our muscles!" Shan Zimo pretended to do chest expansion exercises, and Shan Boyu followed suit.
"You are quite far from the town. Let's go and have dinner!" Fang Hai pulled Shan Zimo and Shan Boyu together and led them to Yanyu Town. "After returning, Qiuxin told me that you two were really good people and gave Qiuxin two fifty-liang ingots. In this way, Qiuxin can spend the winter in peace!"
Shan Zimo tried to break free from Fang Hai's arms, but Fang Hai was very strong!
"Brother Fang Hai, you are really strong!" Shan Zimo teased.
"Well! Farmers make a living by working hard, and I'm a hunter. If I'm lucky, I can catch a fat deer weighing several hundred kilograms. I have to carry it all by myself, so my strength is naturally greater!" Fang Hai lowered his head and just walked, not looking at the expressions of the two people around him. "I'm not like you martial artists, whose strength is as strong as a thousand kilograms. I can't compare!"
"You didn't stay at home to spend more time with Sister Qiuxin this time when you went back. She missed Brother Fang Hai very much!" Shan Zimo said with a smile.
"As for my wife, if I don't come out to make a living, I can't live my whole life relying on the hundred taels of silver from Master Hong!" Fang Hai continued to walk forward with the two of them, and they actually walked out of the forest and came to the road leading to Yanyu Town.
"Master Hong!" The bounty hunters who had chased him surrounded him again, "We thought you were gone! Are you trying to embezzle the hundred thousand taels just like Dao Sheng?"
"No!" Fang Hai raised his voice, and he seemed to be a different person from the silly Fang Hai before, "Hero Hong is going to lead us to capture Shan Zimo!"
Until this point, Fang Hai still had no intention of letting go of his arms. The sweat in his arms had soaked the clothes of the three people! And the pair of greedy eyes revealed that Shan Zimo and Shan Boyu in his arms were like prey he had hunted!
Surrounded by the bounty hunters, Shan Zimo and Shan Boyu returned to the city gate, and only here did Fang Hai open his arms.
"We came out in a hurry and haven't eaten yet!" Fang Hai said flatteringly, "Master Hong and Master Guo must not have eaten either! I'll go buy some buns so we can fill our stomachs!"
Shan Zimo nodded to Fang Hai with a meaningful smile. Fang Hai left the city gate, looking back every few steps.
"I want to report it!" Fang Hai came to the gate of Yanyu Town and shouted, "Dan Zimo is in Yanyu Town!"
