Zhen looked around to see various people passing by. Some are trading and some are just walking the road.
"Hey, until when do you want to keep ignoring me? Come on, I'm just laughing at you a little!?" qiyu. Again he was ignored. He saw there were some trains that would transport some goods towards the village or town "Hey hey, look over there!? You can ride with them!?"
Zhen looked at the carriage that Qiyu had pointed at. There are several trains including freight trains and travel trains. He walked towards the car. "Hey old man? Are you going to leave this village?" tanyakanya.
'Who is this boy?' thought the old coachman. "Yes, why are you asking?"
"Because I want to come!? If you want, I can pay. I have money!?" he looks innocent.
"You can come in the back!? And you don't have to pay." he said.
Zhen stared at the empty chair beside the old man. "May I sit next to you? I'm afraid that in the back, there are a lot of creepy people." he cried with tears that would come out.
He never saw someone as handsome as the boy. But well, the mercenaries behind were indeed rather creepy. The mercenaries hired to protect this freight train carriage were different from the usual ones hired as usual. "Yes, okay. Just don't make a fuss!?" abugn.
"All right!?" excited answer. Zhen immediately sat down beside the old man. Soon they left the village. "Old man what's your name?"
"Call me uncle Peng."
"Uncle?" Zhen watched the old man named uncle Peng. He watched from top to bottom carefully until the old man was nervous. Even as he looked at it, the old man looked like an old man. "You look too old to call uncle. I'll call you grandpa Peng!?" abugn.
"……" Grandpa Peng could only be speechless by this boy who had somehow come from nowhere.
"Where are we going?" tanyakanya.
"We're going to the city of Chiliang. The young master of the Lu family who owned this trade item came from the town of Chiliang, they came to this village because there was a business need with the village chief. I've been to this village many times, but I've never seen you. Are you a wanderer?" ask old man Peng.
"What is a traveler?" zhen whispered to Qiyu.
"Where to go."
"Oh right, I'm a wanderer?" the answer is plain until it looks suspicious.
Grandpa Peng stared questioningly at Zhen. 'Suspicious travelers.' he thought. "What's your name, son?"
"My name is Zhen. I'm a wanderer." he repeated.
Grandpa Peng narrowed his eyes even more, "How old are you?"
"My age is 14 and I'm a wanderer." he repeated.
Grandpa Peng narrowed his eyes even more, 'I guess he's not normal.' he thought very sure. From his exaggerated clothes to his indeterminate behavior, he firmly believed this boy was abnormal. But one other thing he was sure of, the boy was a lonely child. Because the look in his eyes often looks empty forward. "This is for you!?" peng's grandfather gave tanghulu to Zhen.
Zhen glanced at the tanghulu grandfather Peng gave him. "What's this?" tanyanya while looking at the fruit candy.
"Eat it, I bought some for my granddaughter. He really liked the tanghulu in this village. Losing one tanghulu is okay. I still have a lot." he said.
Zhen bit one fruit, "It's sweet."
"Of course sweet stupid!? Ha ha ha ha ha.." his laughter sounded crisp.
"Do I have to kill him? He called me a fool." Zhen whispered as he chewed on the fruit candy.
"Don't."
...***...
On his boring journey Zhen meets a brown-haired girl. Her daughter looked her age. Grandpa Peng said he was the younger brother of the young master of the Li family. Her name is Li Shui. He was sitting right behind Zhen in the freight train. From earlier that girl noticed only Zhen's face from the side with her white cheeks blushing.
"What's wrong with this kid? Is he crazy? He kept looking at me. I think his brain is tilted." whispered Zhen.
"You really don't know? Bad policy, beratai girl who is training in love with a slanted brain. You're a very bad man, ck ck ck." Qiyu shook her head.
"What does that mean?" says annoyed. Zhen glanced at Li Shui who looked flushed red as he looked at himself.
Grandpa Peng who was riding a horse understood what was happening behind and beside him, 'He he he he, it seems that young lady is in love with this child.' he thought.
"H huh?" li Shui immediately turned red with Zhen's question. 'A does he know that I.' he thought with a reddened face.
"I asked if you were in love? With..... my crow?" continued.
"A what?" the face of disbelief was clearly visible to Li Shui.
Grandfather Peng even got to melingo with an out-of-the-box question from Zhen.
"Hey, are you seriously asking that?" ask Qiyu.
Li Shui's face was no longer flushed with embarrassment, but flushed with annoyance.
Plaques
Slap it for himself.
Zhen widened his eyes in disbelief. "Are you sure he's not slanting?" whisper Zhen.
"Now I'm not sure." Qiyu replied starting to change.
"Huff." Li Shui let out a slow breath as he rubbed his strung hair forward. "I'm stupid to think a handsome guy like you is a smart guy" he said, closing the curtain of the train.
"What does that mean?" whispered Zhen did not understand.
"That means you're stupid."
Behind the trees were several bandits preparing to ambush the Li Family's trading carriage. They were heavily armed with the typical clothes of a bandit.
Zhen gazed far ahead, with his sharp dragon eyes and could see from a distance clearly he saw the flow of Qi behind the many trees in front. 'There are at least fifty streams of Qi ahead. Who're they? Mereja seemed to want to ambush this horse carriage seeing them hiding.'
"Grandpa Peng, Grandpa Peng!? In front there are a lot of bad guys hiding behind trees. I think they want to beat us up!?" report it to old man Peng.
There was a frown on the old grandfather's forehead. 'Bad guy? What does it mean to be a bandit? I should immediately inform the bodyguards, he thought. He looked back while waving at a large, burly man.
"What's wrong?" ask the man.
"It looks like there's a bandit up ahead. Please, you need to be prepared." said Grandpa Peng.
"How do you know there's a bandit up ahead?" ask the captain of the guard in astonishment. There was no way an old horse coachman like Peng's grandfather was more powerful than him who was unaware of any enemies ahead.
"The boy next to me told me." he said.
"Heh, don't trust a child!?" he said he couldn't believe it. He returned to guard in his previous position. "Ck, there's just one."
"What's the captain?"
"It's nothing, it's just senile parents."
Zhen saw the unpleasant look on the face of Grandpa Peng.
"Are you sure you saw a bandit up ahead?" tanyanya.
"Yes, I really did see it and their numbers were tens." Zhen replied casually.
Suddenly, Grandpa Peng's eyes widened in shock, "Tens?"
Clangs
Suddenly attacks from various sides were directed at them. Fortunately Zhen fended off the arrow aimed at Peng's grandfather.
Cold sweat continued to pour from the nape of the old man.
"Don't I tell you, there's a bad guy behind the tree. Why don't you believe it?" zhen said with a satisfied smile seeing their shocked faces.
