Chapter 479: Petty thieves and coercion (1/2)

Every time there is a bone objects contest in the King's City, there will be all kinds of strange things, but none of them is more surprising than what happened in the Xuanyu city yesterday.

It's said that a little child, the Hornless-boy, who is a little higher than the knee of an adult male with horns. Yesterday, that child strolled in the most bustling market in the Xuanyu City, without an adult following him.

Don't mention the small child of the Hornless-men. Such a small child, even the Horn-men's, is likely to have an accident if he is alone or unsupervised, so the toddler won't have an accident.

According to a reliable witness, when the toddler was squatting in front of a stall in the market looking at the children's toys, two of the Hornless-men came to take him away, pretending that the child was their own, but just was they wanted to take the child away, they were scratched all over their faces and bled all over!

The child is smart enough to shout “Liars!” and then he yelled some strange words, such as “This Mountain G.o.d is also not something you can touch, you are not Mo Mo!” and ”You don't have the smell of a big bird, you want to pretend to be my father!” and so on.

Originally, the child was very perceptible. As he shouted, more people paid attention to him. The stall owner is the Horn-man. Seeing the child is cute, he didn't drive him away because he was the Hornless-boy. Seeing that he didn't recognize that the two hornless adults were his family members, he also called the people of the city guards.

The two Hornless-men saw a lot of people paying attention to it. The stall owner also called the people of City Guards office so the adults began to panic. He said that the child was naughty, and he wanted to forcibly carry the child away. As a result, he was scratched so badly!

At that time, the onlookers also thought: how powerful can a child's claws be? Even if his face is scratched, how come it is not easy for two fully grown adults to take away a child?

Who knows that after those two Hornless-men were scratched their faces, they even cried out with blood all over their faces that they were blinded.

When the people around noticed the mistake, the little toddler was gone.

Just like this, of course, it can't be a legend just told to amuse people.

“It was yesterday that the child did several big things!” Ge-Da shook his head and peeped at the little toddler nestling in his arms tightly around Yan Mo's neck.

Yan Mo didn't know what happened to Jiu Feng when he went out alone yesterday, but he was very excited when he came back last night. He even brought back some bone coin bags and bone objects.

Yan Mo asked him where his things came from. He said they were all gifted by others.

Although Yan Mo felt strange, he didn't ask too much. Although he is small, Jiu Feng is smart with the inheritance and memory. He is the only one who bullies others when he goes out. How can he suffer from bullies? So far, the biggest loss that Jiu Feng has suffered is not being able to beat Yu Wu. But since then, he seems to have learned how to distinguish the enemy's ability. If the strength value of the other side exceeds his, he will leave himself a chance to escape and not provoke the other side.

”Oh? What did the child do?” Yan Mo smiled, as if he didn't realize that the legendary child was the baby in his arms.

Ge-Da looked at Yan Mo and sighed, ”Do you remember that I told you yesterday not to take too young children out of the house?”

”Um.”

”There's a reason.”

Yan Mo looked at his hesitation and asked patiently, ”What's the reason?”

There was no other outsider in obviously yard, but Ge-Da still looked around and said in a slightly lower voice: ”Some n.o.bles, they like... Well, they like to eat the meat of young animals, which also includes our children of the Hornless-men. Some n.o.bles also like it very much, saying that it is tender and fragrant than other young animals. Didn't you notice yesterday that there weren't any Hornless children on the road?”

Xing Liu was shocked: ”The Horn-people actually eat people?”

Ge-Da felt a little weird and quickly made a gesture, ”DRen, your voice should be smaller. Everyone in the city knows about it, but no one dares to say it out loud.”

Yan Mo pulled Xing Liu for a while. Xing Liu reflected on the fact that he is still the image of the Horn-people at this time. He was angry and stuffy at the moment.

Ge-Da was embarra.s.sed and made up a sentence: ”Not all the Horn-people are like this, don't you think you can't stand it? If you go to the market in the next city, you can see some people who can't support children or are lazy. They live by giving birth to children and selling them. Those people... Oh!”

”So the two Hornless-men who wanted to take the baby away yesterday were trying to sell the child as livestock and food?” Yan Mo's tone was still mild, but everyone here could feel his gloomy tone.

Ge-Da nodded, ”Most likely. In general, for the sake of saving face, the n.o.ble family won't let the slaves of their own family do it. They are all interested in the Hornless-men who do such immoral things specially. ”

With a smile on his lips, Yan Mo unconsciously tapped Jiu Feng on the back and asked, ”What happened then?”

Jiu Feng wanted to say that he knew that Yan Mo gently covered his lips.

“It's said that the child smelled good. He is tenderer than the average child of the Hornless-men. Those who have that mind wanted to catch him and sell him for a good price. In addition, the two Hornless-men in front wanted revenge, and they also found people to catch him. But the child, as if he did know someone was going to catch him, ran into the restaurant to buy meat. He also pointed out that the living things he had just sent in should not die.” Ge-Da continues to steal the little Feng.

Jiu Feng looked at him with a face of ”I am Immortal”.

Ge-Da shrank and continued with a disguised voice: “I heard that the shop owner was going to drive him away, but a few of the Horn-people who went in to eat saw the little boy playing, and they deliberately teased him. They bought the living ferocious beast that the little boy said he wanted from the shop owner, and told the little boy he can take him back as long as he was not killed by the ferocious beast.”

Yuan Zhan's eyes flashed.

Xing Liu almost jumped up. ”That kid is a little older. How can they do such a cruel thing! These...”

”Young Master!” Yan Mo raised his voice slightly.

Xing Liu could not bear it easily, but the expression on his face was extremely indignant. If the little child was not Jiu Feng, but the ordinary child of the Hornless-people, how could he survive from the mouth of a violent beast?

Ge-Da is more and more fond of Xing Liu, and felt that Yan Mo and others are luckier. He has such a kind-hearted Master, which makes him more courageous. ”Yes, they are cruel. But no one thought the following will happen... the released ferocious beast not only did not dare to attack the little boy, but also was kicked by the little boy. He also called the animal ”useless, stupid, how can you be caught” and so on. Later... ”

Ge-Da's face became strange. ”The little boy was going to take the beast away. Those Horn-people don't want to leave him. The little boy even directed the ferocious beast to attack the Horn-people. At first, those Horn-people could not deal with the ferocious beast, but somehow they could not get close to the ferocious beast and the child. According to later rumors, the Horn-people always felt like they were wrapped in a strong wind during the fight. In the end, the Horn-people didn't leave with the child. The ferocious beast also left with the child. When the child left. Well, I heard that he robbed all the Horn-people, even the shopkeeper money was clean out.”

Jiu Feng smiled smugly, and Yan Mo's eyelids jumped down. He has no choice but to squint at someone who was the bad example.

Yuan Zhan, the so called robber addictive was the bad example, the bad example raised his eyebrows and gave a positive look to Jiu Feng: Yes, well done!

Jiu Feng is proud: ”Hey! Hey!” he has known bone coins are good things after spending these days in the western continent.

Ge-Da sighed again, “Later, the child took the ferocious beast and continued to roam around the city, he beat back three waves of people who wanted to catch him, and whenever he had a chance, he robbed bone objects, yuan-crystal and bone coin bags from people, and finally wounded a Horn-man of the city guard house who went to catch him and the ferocious beast. Although all these things were done by a child, what he did was beyond the tolerance of the Horn-people, especially those Horn-people who were robbed and the later wounded Horn-man, who were not ordinary people. After a night, it came out an order, and now a lot of people want to catch the child. ”

Xing Liu and others looked at the little Feng in Yan Mo's arms, and almost everyone confirmed who Ge-Da was talking about.

Yan Mo looked at Ge-Da, ”You tell me this, shouldn't you just tell me the news? What do you want to say, say it. ”

Ge-Da was very embarra.s.sed. He said it intermittently, “I, I can't come back. Please understand.”

”Of course.”

“In addition, the City Guards office will definitely ask us the people who lead the way, even if there are other people who also take their children into the city, but the people who take a child of the Hornless-people into the city recently are probably only you. Even if I don't say it, they will find this place here sooner or later, and I can't not tell the lie.” Ge-Da smiled bitterly.

Yan Mo nodded, ”Don't worry, we won't implicate you.”

”No, I mean, it's not safe for you to live here. Although this is a shrine and the temple-servant Zhong He is very good, but the city guard office and some n.o.bles want to arrest people. The shrine temple-servant may not be able to protect you.” Ge-Da finally said what he wanted to say. He didn't want these strangers to get involved in the temple-servant, even if they looked good.

Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan look at each other, and Yan Mo asked in harmony, ”So do you have any other recommendations?”

Ge-Da sincerely thought for the pa.s.ser-by: “Find a way to join the larger aristocracy, or escape to the White-Horn's the Luolan city. If I can't Hand over... ”

Ge-Da can't say anymore.

”There's no need to leave. This is a temple. Even if the City Lord wanted to arrest people here, he has to ask me if I agree with him.”

Everyone turned to look at the gate of the yard.

The old man in the old temple-servant robe walked into the courtyard door and said, “I've heard the rumor. First of all, I'd like to make sure if the demon child they talked is you?”

”Demon boy?” Yan Mo stood up with Jiu Feng and saluted the old man.

In reply to the temple-servant, “It's the Hornless-men who awakened the ability of the demon warriors from childhood. We have a saying for this, the demon child.”

Yan Mo shook his head and said sincerely: “It's not him. I don't know who Ge-Da said the child is, but I'm sure it's not our child.”

The temple-servant looked into his eyes. ”You promise?”

Yan Mo nodded and said seriously, “I promise.”

The temple-servant looked at Xing Liu again. Xing Liu was led by Yan Mo. Of course, he would say what Yan Mo said. He nodded at the moment and promised: “It must not be this child.”

Ge-Da doubted, but looking at the faces of several people, he wavered. Isn't that the boy?

The temple-servant suddenly smiled, ”Well, since you promise it's not this kid, what I'm going to do is simple. When the City Guards office and other people come to the door, you take the kid out and show him to them. If not, you don't have to worry about anything. Just keep calm.”

Yan Mo patted Jiu Feng and said with a smile, ”Thank you G.o.d. Thank you so much for the help of the shrine-servant.”

The shrine-servant had doubts, but he didn't ask any more questions, so he left.

Ge-Da waited for the temple-servant to go far before he asked in a hurry, “Isn't it really this kid?”

”Of course not.”
