C346 Riches Come from Danger



C346 Riches Come from Danger

0Old Man Ma looked at Xiao Yun, then at the box in front of him.    

    

He suddenly realized something.    

    

His face wrinkled like a bitter melon.    

    

"Young Master Xiao, is there anything in this world that you can't solve? And it's so simple?"    

    

Xiao Yun spread his hands and said, "If even this kind of thing is considered a big deal, then don't sit on the high and mighty seat anymore."    

    

Old Man Ma was nervous.    

    

His mouth was wide open, and he couldn't speak for a long time.    

    

After a while, he sighed and said respectfully, "I'm going out to do some work."    

    

"Go ahead."    

    

Xiao Yun did not say anything else.    

    

Wait. Old Man Ma walked out the door.    

    

Waiting. The caravan continued on their journey.    

    

Half a day's journey.    

    

Old Man Ma asked the caravan to get off the main road.    

    

They followed a narrow path.    

    

It was very difficult to walk on this kind of road.    

    

The wheels would always be stuck in the snow, and it would also be especially bumpy.    

    

Especially since no one knew what was underneath a flat piece of snow. Was it a sharp stone, or was it an unknown depth pit?    

    

In short, everyone was walking on tenterhooks.    

    

In the meantime, some people started whispering.    

    

They didn't understand why they had to walk on such a small path instead of a proper official road.    

    

Especially those people from the Hong family. They didn't think that they should listen to Old Man Ma's arrangements.    

    

Everything that they had done now was because of Xiao Yun.    

    

What right did Old Man Ma have to come out and manage this matter?    

    

If he really wanted to manage this matter, the manager of Hong family who had half of his teeth removed by Xiao Yun would be more qualified.    

    

However, this fellow was the only one in the Hong family who had no intention of standing out!    

    

While calculating how much his golden tooth was worth, he was also sighing in admiration at Xiao Yun's overbearing manner.    

    

What happened earlier had made him clearly understand that Xiao Yun was a decisive man.    

    

Being a manager for a long time, he was also very smart.    

    

He also realized that there were some changes in the group.    

    

He also understood that as long as there were any signs of movement, Young Master Xiao would probably kill!    

    

Therefore, some people wanted to stand out, but he was the one who stood out and advised them.    

    

Confusion, contradictions, and resentment.    

    

After walking for a day and a night, when the narrow path was gone and there was only the wilderness in front of them, it completely exploded.    

    

First, the people of Hong family had a quarrel with the people of Molan Country.    

    

Then, they started to fight.    

    

Old Man Ma stepped forward to stop them, but he was almost beaten up as well.    

    

A chaotic situation seemed to be about to happen in this already unstable team.    

    

Xiao Yun, however, did not come out of the carriage after a long time.    

    

Old Man Ma understood Xiao Yun's intention.    

    

He then gritted his teeth.    

    

He rushed over and killed the two people who had caused the most trouble.    

    

One. One was from the Hong family, and the other was from the Molan Country.    

    

He didn't care if it was right or wrong, and he didn't care which side was on his side.    

    

Then, he raised his two heads and shouted at everyone, "You are going to ruin my big event! You are going to ruin the big event in the Molan Country! You are going to ruin everyone's big fortune!"    

    

The word 'great fortune' was very intimidating.    

    

Everyone stopped what they were doing.    

    

Looking at the bloody head, they knew that Old Man Ma was going to play it for real!    

    

Even those who were annoyed wanted to stop and listen to what he had to say first.    

    

After that, Old Man Ma carefully took out the box that Xiao Yun had given him. He threw the knife over his head and raised both hands above his head.    

    

"What do you think this is?"    

    

Everyone could only see one box and the wax seal on the box.    

    

"This is your wealth! A great wealth that you didn't even dare to imagine in the past! It's also mine! "    

    

Old Man Ma gave the answer without needing anyone to answer.    

    

After that, he carefully put down the box and held it with both hands.    

    

He explained what Xiao Yun had said to everyone present at the top of his voice.    

    

"You don't know, you don't know that there is such a box in Molan Country. What will happen? You also don't know, even if it is a small country. What kind of experience is it to be a noble in it? Everyone said the Molan Country was small, but there were at least two million families in the Molan Country. Nine million people! However, the price of a medal was less than ten thousand people. As long as you become one, you will become one. That is the life you will be able to enjoy, the life you will be able to enjoy... It is a life you have never thought of, the respect you receive... It is also something that your ancestors have not been able to accumulate even after several generations of Yin De..."    

    

"Look, it is this box. As long as it is able to deliver it to the king along with Young Master Xiao... Whether you are from the Molan Country or the Sun Moon Country... No matter if you were once servants or servants, even if you have been nine generations in a row, you are all in the Lower Nine Paths. The moment the box reaches the hands of the king, you will have everything you want! "    

    

"These are my words, it is also the guarantee given to you by Molan Country! There are people from my Molan Country here, and it can even be said that they are the king's trusted aides. Whether or not my words hold any weight, they are the clearest! "    

    

Immediately, people from Molan Country came out and said, "Chief Ma's words are the words of Molan Country! In the Molan Country, there is no one who doesn't know about this! "    

    

Those people from the Hong family were also stunned.    

    

Loyalty?    

    

It was just that the price of betrayal was too great, and the benefits weren't enough!    

    

That was the reality.    

    

Furthermore, they were not considered to be disloyal.    

    

They weren't loyal to the Sun Moon Country to begin with.    

    

They were loyal to the Hong family.    

    

Their most important order right now was to send Xiao Yun to the place he wanted to go.    

    

Even if he had completed... some tasks that were not part of his plan.    

    

But this did not conflict with the original task!    

    

Everyone could find the most suitable reason to convince themselves in their hearts.    

    

Because the one who understood them the most would always be themselves.    

    

The one who could deceive themselves the most was also themselves.    

    

A chaotic scene.    

    

It was over.    

    

It went from thunderous to calm.    

    

Some people didn't even have time to react.    

    

They could only imitate the people around them and put down the weapons in their hands. Then, they started to help others set up tents and prepare some food.    

    

Wait. Smoke curled up from the kitchen as people began to eat.    

    

Old Man Ma then continued to stand at a high place and said, "Everyone, try your best to eat as much as possible for this meal. Because from now on, we shouldn't be able to start a fire to cook anymore. We want to eat a warm meal. Then we will have to wait until we are completely safe."    

    

He took a deep breath and continued, "This trip was originally very difficult. It was because of our mistake. He also killed the soldiers of Sun Moon Country, which made this journey even more difficult. But all of this was within my expectations! A major event that concerned the revolution of the country, a matter that concerned the power and wealth of everyone present. It can't be done so easily. It's very difficult, because its rewards are generous enough! "    

    

" Perhaps half of the people here, or even more than half, won't be able to reach the end. And these people... probably won't be able to enjoy the fruits of their victory, but this is the price, the price of this opportunity, you can choose now. After eating this meal, I think this trip is too dangerous. Or is it more important to stay alive? Then you can leave and return to the main road. I can provide you with enough food and water, and I can always let you go to the next station. Those who don't want to leave, don't decide to leave. Then please be prepared, from today onwards... Until this box is handed over to the Emperor, your lives will no longer be yours. All belong to this box! "    

    

After saying this.    

    

Old Man Ma jumped down from the boulder and found a pot nearby. He picked up a bowl and began to eat and drink.    

    

From the beginning to the end, he didn't look up at anyone else.    

    

It was as if if if someone left, he wouldn't care at all.    

    

Time passed bit by bit.    

    

In the entire camp, only the sound of people lowering their heads to eat could be heard.    

    

The sound was very loud.    

    

It was as if the bowl and the pot were about to be sucked into his stomach.    

    

After eating and cleaning up, everyone leaned against the bonfire to rest for the last time.    

    

Six hours later.    

    

People woke up one after another.    

    

They extinguished the bonfire and covered the traces with mud and snow.    

    

Then, they returned to the carriage and threw all the extra goods to the side.    

    

Apart from food, he threw whatever he could throw to minimize the weight of the entire carriage.    

    

Then... he was ready to go!    

    

All of this.    

    

It was all done in silence.    

    

Almost no one said a word.    

    

They didn't even need Old Man Ma to command them.    

0

    

More importantly.    

    

No one left!    

    

Wealth came from danger.    

    

It was as if it had long been the truth of this world.
