Chapter two hundred and eight living

Chapter 208: Live

Because of the attack of the karma fire, Zhou Wutian's ten thousand soul karma fire, which had been in rotation for a long time, was suppressed. Zhou Wutian could feel that he had spent more time on suppression, which was not a good sign for Zhou Wutian.

Fortunately, when Zhou Wutian suppressed the karma fire, there was no need to open his eyes to find discomfort. Otherwise, once Zhou Wutian’s karma fire was caused, another bloody case would inevitably occur, and in the end it would be another trouble.

"Little brother, little brother, do you see if you are free now? Let me tell you something." After seeing Zhou Wutian breathed a sigh of relief, a middle-aged man leaned over and asked.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Wutian looked up and found a middle-aged man who looked a little thin was talking to him.

"Boss, you'll just say something." Zhou Wutian closed his expression and immediately showed a cater to his attitude.

"That's right, that's it. I'll ask you to be the guard of our caravan. I don't know if you want it or not." The middle-aged man said.

"Please me?! Boss, are you planning to invite me to be my guardian of your caravan?" Zhou Wutian was a little surprised. He did not expect that he had not gone to look for it, but someone came to him.

"That's right, I just don't know if you want it or not." said the middle-aged man.

"I am certainly willing to take on work, but I can't understand why you came to me by boss?" Zhou Wutian asked. Zhou Wutian's attribute achievements outside were only Yaoguang's second level, and he was very young in age. It was obviously not the best choice to put them among the mercenary piles.

"To be honest, our caravan has not been established for a long time, and there are neither many experts nor much funds. I have come to you because I have such a consideration." The middle-aged man said hesitantly.

"Boss, if you want to say this, you have to see how much you can pay." Zhou Wutian said, "If I give it less, I don't want to put in this effort, do you think so."

"Haha, I know that I can't hide these things from you, so I'll just say it. Come with me this time, Wuliang, what do you think?" The middle-aged man stopped beating around the bush and directly pointed out the words.

"Five liang, boss, are you a little too that?" Zhou Wutian waved his hand and said, "Overall, our industry starts at ten liang. Is it too little if you give five liang?"

"Little brother, we don't say secret words. If you are the second level of Yaoguang, if you are looking for a stable job, you can only have two or three taels a day. If you can't find a good job, you will have no money." The middle-aged man said, "But if you go with me like this, no matter whether there is any danger or not, you can clearly put the five taels of gold into your pocket. If I don't say anything, you can also weigh it clearly."

"You can't say that, boss, since you ask me if I'm willing or not, it means that there are still considerations in this matter, and you are not accurate. Since you are not accurate, the price has not yet been determined, right?" Zhou Wutian said.

"Hiss--" the middle-aged man scratched his head and said, "The little brother saw that he had read a book. Since that's the case, what about the price of seven taels?"

"Trade." Zhou Wutian nodded and said, "However, if you come back this time, the price will not be appropriate if you come again next time."

"It's easy to say, I'll be reborn again and again. If I meet you again next time, I will never treat you badly." The middle-aged man patted Zhou Wutian's shoulder and said, "My name is Sun Xiao. How old is Chi? Just call me elder brother."

"Next Zhou Wutian, I'll be lucky to meet you." Zhou Wutian said.

"Okay, even if we get involved, the caravan will set off soon. Let's go with me." Sun Xiao said, taking the lead and leading the way in front.

"Let's go so soon. Brother Sun, you're looking for someone urgently." Zhou Wutian said.

"I didn't set out so soon, but I set out after I found you." Sun Xiao said.

"Dad, after moving for so long, why did you get a man from the second floor of Kaiyang?" Before the two of you approached, the girl leaning on a carriage in the caravan teased the horse whip and said.

"It's not true." Sun Xiao blamed him angrily, then turned his head and said to Zhou Wutian, "Little brother, don't be surprised. My daughter is so kind that she is used to being wild."

The girl heard this and looked unhappy. She turned her head and turned around and left, entering the carriage.

"I've got used to it. I've worked for a while and I've seen sarcasm. What's this?" Zhou Wutian waved his hand and said.

As the two were talking, a burly man next to him leaned over and said, "Brother, everyone is all. It's getting late. I think we'll set off."

"Okay, call us and set off." Sun Xiao waved his hand and signaled, and the man immediately went to greet the caravan's troops and set off.

"This is my second brother Sun Xing, who is considered the second in command of the caravan." Sun Xiao said, "Don't look at him like this now. He was extremely powerful when he was young. No child of the same age in our village could beat him."

"No, no, no, I think I can see now that he is extremely powerful." Zhou Wutian waved his hand and said,

"Oh, what's the use of being extremely powerful?" He didn't care about what Zhou Wutian said. Sun Xiao continued, "It's a pity that he has enough strength but cannot practice. He said he is strong, that's better than ordinary people. He has to face a cultivator casually and fall down when he turns his hands."

"Uh." Zhou Wutian nodded, "Then why can't he practice that?"

"I don't know." Sun Xiao shook his head and said, "When I was testing, I said that my brother could not practice and was destined to be an ordinary person. Although we have tried many methods, it was useless."

"Hey, brother, it's time for us to set off." Sun Xiao was frowning. When he heard Sun Xing call him, he quickly stretched his eyebrows and smiled and responded, "Okay, let's go there right away." Then he said to Zhou Wutian, "Let's get on the carriage first, let's talk on the road." As he said that, Sun Xiao got on the carriage, and Zhou Wutian also followed him on the carriage. After the two got on the carriage, the entire carriage set out in the direction of Pingwu.

Although Sun Xiao said that the caravan was just established and not big, the caravan also had more than ten carriages, with nearly thirty people all of them strong men, each wearing iron armor and carrying steel knives, which was full of momentum.

"Boss Sun, I think your caravan is full of momentum, it doesn't look like it's just established." Zhou Wutian said to the neat caravan.

"Oh, they are all facades, they are nothing." Sun Xiao said, "Seeing the large number of people, even if these thirty people are added up, they can't beat you and me. Of course, their wages are not as much as yours, and they do much more than you."

"Oh? Then why do you still follow you? This industry is so dangerous and the wages are not much." Zhou Wutian said.

"The wages are not much, that's relative to you." Sun Xiao waved his hand and said, "For ordinary four families, if they make a living by farming land, they will have a maximum of one or two silver dollars in a year. This is still the income of the whole family for a year. If they buy some more things, there will be nothing left. But if they come out and go with me, it will be the income of the family for half a year. Do you think such a great temptation is not worth taking the risk of life?"

"I don't think I agree with what you said." Zhou Wutian said, "The reason I came out to make a living was because of some unscrupulous reasons, but for myself, I don't want to run around. If I can get a stable life, even if the conditions are more difficult, I feel that it's better to live a stable life."

"Life safe?" Sun Xiao heard Zhou Wutian say this, as if he had heard something new, and continued, "We practitioners have a hard time, and ordinary people have a hard time. Not to mention the exploitation of officials at all levels, there is no such factor. It is just that people will be able to harvest the weather. When the weather is good, eat more and eat more. When the disaster is in the year of desolation, those who should starve to death and those who should escape to escape to escape, and those who should live in a stable life are not that they don't want to live a stable life, but that they cannot live a stable life."

"It is true that people are harvested in heaven, but when disasters occur, do these yamen ignore them?" Zhou Wutian said. Obviously, Zhou Wutian, who grew up in Zhou State, could not imagine these things, because half of the administrative officials in Zhou State exist to stabilize these things, so whenever Zhou State encounters these things, they will have a more appropriate way to deal with them. Zhou Wutian has also participated in several disaster relief efforts, so he has a deep understanding of them.

"Whoever cares?" Sun Xiao asked in surprise, "Little brother, you are afraid you are not from ours."

"Yes, I'm Yu'an, I'm not very clear about this place." Zhou Wutian said.

"That's not the case. Isn't it better for An Zai to go with Yu'an?" Sun Xiao shook his head and said, "I see if you are 80% of the young masters from which family you are from, you have come out to play. Now some young masters are used to good life and have to experience life. It's ridiculous."

"I would have lived such a good life." Zhou Wutian sighed, "Maybe I have practiced too much and have learned too little about the outside world, so it sounds quite abrupt."

"No, I can't see people wrong. I think you are not an ordinary character, so you will definitely not be wrong." Sun Xiao still stared at Zhou Wutian and said.

"If you say this, I can't stay anymore." Zhou Wutian said, "With such a misunderstanding, if you encounter something, you will definitely not trust me, and then the matter will be a big deal. I can't continue to follow you." As he said that, Zhou Wutian was about to get off the car.

"No, no, no, no," Sun Xiao quickly pulled Zhou Wutian's arm and said, "Sit down, sit down, I'll just joke with you. Your identity has nothing to do with me, and I don't expect to stick to any big shots and live your own life."

"It's just a joke." Zhou Wutian didn't plan to leave, so he just sat down. "I'd love if I had such a good life."

"Oh, it's all fate." Sun Xiao sighed, "After you say this, some emotion arises. Why don't we drink a few glasses of good wine?"

"Forget it, the caravan is still waiting for us to take care of that. If drinking will make a mistake, it will be bad." Zhou Wutian waved his hand and said.

"That's right." Sun Xiao nodded in agreement, "It's really not peaceful here recently, otherwise I wouldn't have called you."

"Not peaceful? What's wrong?" Zhou Wutian asked hurriedly.

"You may have just arrived but didn't know." Sun Xiao said seriously, "Recently, a group of white bandits appeared on this road. They burned, killed and looted the villages and caravans. The government sent a lot of people to capture them, but none of them caught them. The group of white bandits were still scattering everywhere without restraint, so our caravans have increased their manpower, and several caravans have been on the road together for several miles to take care of each other."

"White Bandit?" Zhou Wutian felt it was fresh when he heard this time, "Are you a very powerful White Bandit? How come you can't catch it?"

"Well, a very powerful white bandit." Sun Xiao nodded and said, "I heard that the boss of this group of white bandits is now at the seventh and eighth level of Kaiyang, and he is really powerful."

"Kaiyang Seven and Eighth Levels?" Zhou Wutian was a little surprised after hearing this. This strength can be unscrupulous here. Isn't it too much? However, Zhou Wutian suppressed the surprise and continued, "Kaiyang Seven and Eighth Levels are indeed powerful, but aren't there many Kaiyang masters in our nearest fiefdom? I heard that there are also strong Yuheng in charge, can't you catch this?"

"Just kidding, will Kaiyang masters take action on these trivial matters? Not to mention the strong Yuheng, you will never see each other in your life." Sun Xiao said.

"This cannot be considered a trivial matter. The caravans and villages were robbed and the bandits were free. This is a big deal." Zhou Wutian said.

"The one who was robbed was a village, after all, it was a fixed residence. Once the trap was set up and fortifications were a fight, no number of white bandits dared to respond. At most, they would snatch something and leave." Sun Xiao said, "But if these white bandits encounter a caravan, they would kill them without saying a word, and then cut down half of the people first and then rob your things. If the caravan meets a white bandit and die half of them, it would be lucky. If a small caravan like us really would not survive if they really encountered it."

"I can understand that life and death are fate, wealth and honor are in heaven. Cultivation itself is a battle with heaven and earth. It's nothing to encounter a problem of life and death." Zhou Wutian said, "But why are ordinary people involved in it? Life is more precious than money."

"You are wrong about this. In this world, it depends on your identity and how much your life is worth." Sun Xiao said, "You have 1,000 taels of gold a year, and 100,000 taels a year. This is only calculated by your current strength. If you improve your strength and extend your life in the future, it will be more than this price." Sun Xiao changed his mind and looked at the strong man responsible for driving the carriage and escorting outside the carriage and said, "If they do some ordinary life, at most one tael of silver a year, they will live no more than one hundred years. In their lifetime, they will only be ten taels of gold."

"This, this can't be calculated like this, how can human life be calculated like this?" Zhou Wutian frowned, obviously not very agreeing with this conversion.
