Chapter 1275: Chapter 1277 There is Only One Official Road_1 Chapter 1275: Chapter 1277 There is Only One Official Road_1 Muyu asked sowhat resentfully, “Ma’am, are you really not taking the doctor’s fee?
You even gave them a bottle of dicine, which was made from precious herbs and very expensive!”
He raised his voice deliberately, so that the people near Jin Wanliang could hear him.
Bai Ruozhu said indifferently, “If the woman refuses to pay, then consider it as feeding a dog.” Her voice was also loud enough for those at the other side to hear.
For a mont, many people’s faces changed.
All those who had survived were on good terms with Jin Wanliang; they had watched Jin Jing grow up and couldn’t help but want to scold Bai Ruozhu when they heard her talk about Jin Jing like that.
“You…” Jin Jing was fuming, about to retaliate with words, but was interrupted by the weak Jin Wanliang.
“Jingjing, shut up!
Paying for treatnt is a matter of course, you are too willful!” Although Jin Wanliang’s voice was weak, it carried a stern tone.
“Dad, you don’t know, where did I not give money?
I clearly gave her two hundred taels, and I said that I would offer a substantial reward after you woke up.
It was her own choice to refuse it,” Jin Jing said angrily.
The silver banknote on the ground had already been picked up by the servants.
Bai Ruozhu scoffed, “You threw the silver banknote on the ground.
Is there a problem with your eyes, or are you disabled, that you can’t even hand sothing over properly?
She waved her hand impatiently, “There’s no use talking further.
I said I don’t want the doctor’s fee, let’s all go our separate ways.”
After she finished speaking, she swiftly walked ahead, pulling Jiang Yichun along.
She had already heard what Jin Wanliang said to his servant, but before the servant had a chance to co over and ask, she definitely did not want to travel with Jin Wanliang’s rchant team, especially having already had enough of Jin Jing.
“Female doctor…” Jin Wanliang wanted to call her back, but Bai Ruozhu acted as if she didn’t hear and kept walking.
He could only sigh and shake his head, turning to Jin Jing, “You girl are too unreasonable.
This doctor saved your father’s life, but instead of being grateful and forging a good relationship, how can you end up with such resentnt?”
Jin Jing bit her lip, a look of defiance on her face, yet she didn’t talk back to her father in front of others.
Only then Jin Wanliang’s anger subsided sowhat, and he hurriedly said to everyone, “We should not linger here any longer; let’s leave quickly.
We should follow them; I am not in good health, and if anything happens, we can ask them for help.”
Jin Jing pursed her lips, thinking, when we were attacked by the Beast Team, didn’t they just stand by and do nothing?
What help can we ask for from them?
However, the image of that stern face quickly appeared in her mind, her cheeks flushing with two red clouds.
The man had been staring at her, surely he would rember her now.
Thinking about it that way, she felt that her father was right in saying that following them would be a good thing.
Bai Ruozhu and the others led the rchant team for half a day, and the stench of blood in the air finally faded.
Bai Ruozhu took a deep breath and said helplessly to Jiang Yichun, “Sotis having too keen a sense of sll is not a good thing.”
Jiang Yichun smiled and reached to tease her nose, “You weren’t scared just now, were you?”
He was referring to the scene of the Beast Team killing people earlier.
Bai Ruozhu sighed at the mory, “To be honest, it was shocking.
Life is worth no more than grass.”
“The Barbarian Tribe has issued a call to arms; it’s very likely we won’t encounter any mbers of the Barbarian Tribe robbing us on the road ahead.
The average Barbarian Beast Team shouldn’t be too formidable; it’s just that we happened to co across the team led by Sangta,” Jiang Yichun said, his eyes darkening.
“Is that barbarian the prince of the Barbarian Tribe?
The white tiger he rides is the king of beasts, so he must hold a certain status within the tribe, right?” Bai Ruozhu asked.
Jiang Yichun nodded, “He should soon beco the king of the Barbarian Tribe.”
Bai Ruozhu muttered to herself, a chief or what?
Since they are called a tribe, shouldn’t it be a chieftain?
How many people does he rule over, including those creatures that fly and run?
Jin Jing, who was following not far behind, witnessed the interactions between the two and was so enraged that a vicious light shot out of her beautiful eyes.
She muttered, “Little vixen, flirting with a man in broad daylight.
I thought Zhongyuan won were particular about manners, but they’re just as shaless.”
Bai Ruozhu felt a gaze settling on her and couldn’t help but turn her head to look where she saw Jin Jing from the nearby Jin Wanliang rchant Team riding to the forefront, eyeing her with a predatory stare.
She returned Jin Jing’s contemptuous look, but she was also sowhat puzzled.
Did this woman have shit for brains?
They didn’t have any deep hatred, did they?
Why was she looking at her as if she were looking at her father’s murderer?
Jiang Yichun followed her gaze and imdiately showed displeasure on his face, “What are they following us for?
That woman even dares to glare at you, perhaps I should send soone to gouge out her eyes.”
Bai Ruozhu had already turned her head back and naturally didn’t see Jin Jing imdiately switch to a flirtatious smile upon seeing Jiang Yichun look her way.
Jiang Yichun felt nauseated by that woman’s gaze, and if it weren’t inconvenient at the mont, he would’ve wished to chop her down with a sword.
Bai Ruozhu scolded him with a glance, “You’d gouge out soone’s eyes just for looking at twice, I hadn’t realized you were so cruel.”
He leaned over and breathed into her ear, whispering with a wicked smile, “I’ll let you know what cruelty is later tonight.”
Bai Ruozhu’s cheeks turned a rosy red, she scolded him with a glance, saying, “There are so many people here, stop ssing around.”
The people around them were all skilled in martial arts and had excellent hearing; how embarrassing it would be for them to overhear.
Sure enough, Muyu was hiding on the side, snickering covertly; Bai Ruozhu was both embarrassed and annoyed, extending her hand to pinch Jiang Yichun’s arm.
Jiang Yichun glanced at Muyu and said, “Muyu, go talk to the rchant Team behind us.
Tell them to stop following us.
Don’t use martial arts and certainly don’t reveal your identities.”
Muyu said with a pained expression, “Understood, I’ll accept the punishnt.”
Bai Ruozhu chuckled secretly, it was always Muyu who was caught in unseemly laughter; couldn’t he be more like Chenfeng and Jianqi, who neither listened nor watched, and didn’t ddle?
Muyu turned his horse around and went to converse with Jin Wanliang, the outco was predictable.
Jin Wanliang was cunning; he replied with excessive politeness, also ntioning that since there was only one official road, they had no choice but to follow it.
Unable to use martial arts or threaten them, Muyu, after much talking, could only return dejectedly to Jiang Yichun’s side.
“My Lord, I have failed.
Please punish ,” Muyu said sowhat aggrieved.
Ever since they started toward the Western Regions, their terms of address had changed, and they could no longer call their master “Master.” They had to address Jiang Yichun as “My Lord” and Bai Ruozhu as “Madam.”
Jiang Yichun glanced at him and said, “Go to the front.
If I catch you slacking off again, the punishnt will be doubled.”
Muyu shrank his neck, “Yes, I wouldn’t dare.”
Aiyo, he really should take better care of his own ears.
Why did he always listen in, and even laugh?
He was truly courting death.
Although it was still springti, the afternoon sun in the Western Regions had already beco fierce, causing skin to redden after prolonged exposure and even feel sowhat painful.
Bai Ruozhu took out a small box of sunscreen she had mixed herself, and began to apply it on her face, neck, back of the hands, and other exposed skin.
“You have to apply it every three hours, or else you’ll tan,” Bai Ruozhu pouted; at that mont, she seed like a little girl fussy about her looks.
