Seeing that armor, Ye Fan immediately recognized it as the cavalry of the northern army.
Although most of the people in the northern army knew Ye Fan, after all, he was the Young Marquis. But now that Ye Fan had appeared, he was not afraid of being recognized.
Ye Fan was not interested in this, as he did not have that much time to put up with this' visiting family 'drama.
"Get out of the way!" Is he courting death!? "
The cavalrymen dashed across the wide road, and the merchants and passersby all avoided them, not daring to provoke them in the slightest.
Ye Fan had planned to bring the two ladies along and continue their journey in silence, but who would've thought that this squadron of seven or eight cavalry soldiers would suddenly stop right in front of them!
The cavalry general wearing a silver helmet hopped off his horse with a few soldiers and swaggered over.
Ye Fan frowned, thinking that someone might have noticed something unusual. Just when he was wondering, wasn't something that should have been exposed?
Who would have thought that the hawk-nosed high-ranking officer with a small mustache would aim for the stall that sold card and slap it!
"Who allowed you barbarians to come here to do business?!" Speak! Is it a barbarian spy? "
The big sized man had a fawning smile on his face as he bowed his head and said, "Senior Yu Hu, we are just commoners that have come here to do some small business … Haven't you seen me before? "
"What do you mean? Say that your daddy has a bad memory? " The centurion asked in a cold voice.
"No, no, no! This little one doesn't have that intention. Honorable Bai Hu, you have many troubles. It is normal for this little one to not remember you … "
The big barbarian took out a handful of coins from his bag as he spoke.
"Master Yu Hu, it has been hard on you to protect this peaceful place. This is just a small token of your sincerity, you and the other lords must accept it …" "Hehe …"
The Centurion smirked as he quietly handed the money to one of the cavalrymen to receive it.
"What, give me some money, then you're not a spy? Are our northern army, the sort of no-name army that can be bought easily!? "
The barbarian man forced a smile on his face. He fished out two to three hundred coins and handed it over to the man, saying, "Master, I've only been here for two days and I already have this many …" I really am not a spy. If you don't believe me, you can interrogate me … "
The official then took the money and weighed it in his hand, "It's not that I'm not reasonable, but the battles have been frequent lately. You guys had better be careful..."
That's why I ended up patrolling this area, which was easy to talk to. If it was anyone else, I might just slaughter you! "
"Yes, yes... "Thank you, sir. We have a meal to eat because of you …" The barbarian said with a smile.
The official smirked and casually picked up a few cards and threw them to the cavalrymen beside him. Then, he bit a piece in his own mouth before turning around to mount his horse.
But just as he reached the horse's side, he was stopped by Ye Fan, who had an expressionless face.
"Stinking brat!" No eyes? What are you doing!? " The official cursed.
"You!"
Behind him, Qing He and Jie Long saw that this guy dared to be disrespectful to Ye Fan, and they were about to attack him.
But Ye Fan stretched out his hand, gesturing for them to not move.
"Yo!" The official then took a good look at the two women. "I wasn't paying attention just now. Not bad. Such a pretty lady is rarely seen here …"
Where did it come from? What are you doing? Those of unknown origins, immediately go and receive an investigation from this grandpa! "
Ye Fan glanced at the North Mountain Army's insignia on this guy's shoulder and chest, and frowned, "Return the money..."
This time, not only the few cavalrymen were frozen in shock, but even the other passersby all nervously looked at Ye Fan.
"Ai ai! No problem, no problem! Customer! It's fine! There was no need to return the money! That's what I pay my respects to the Hundred Families! "
When the big barbarian saw that Ye Fan was going to stand up for him, he acted as a mediator. He signaled Ye Fan with his eyes, telling him not to be impulsive.
But the official's eyes had already darkened, he snorted lightly, wiped the milk off the corner of his mouth with his thumb, and said: "Brat …. A tender skin, and two girls … Hehe, is this your first time here?
Do you know who I am? Do you know what the battle robe on me represents?! "
Ye Fan sighed and said, "I gave you a chance because I know what it means." Otherwise, you are already dead. "
"Hahahaha!"
The Centurion and a few cavalrymen behind him burst into laughter, tears of laughter streaming down their faces.
"Aiyo... No, this kid was too funny! "Haha! …"
The boss's smile disappeared and he shouted, "Arrest those three!"
As soon as he said that, before the few cavalrymen could take action, Ye Fan's hand had already slapped on the Chief's silver helmet!
"Crack crack crack!" The sound of bones breaking could be heard.
The Centurion's head was instantly pressed down, the bones in his neck breaking inch by inch!
The silvery-gray helmet made a "pa" sound as it squashed a head flat and blood spurted out!
The Hundred Family Head didn't even have time to circulate his cultivation, it was as if he had become a headless corpse with a bloody helmet on his shoulder …
The people in the surroundings started screaming. Although there were many dead people at the border, it was clear that they had never seen such deaths before!
The few cavalrymen were all dumbfounded. They didn't see clearly that Ye Fan had already killed the chief of a hundred households?
"You … "You …" The cavalrymen were all pale. They knew that even the Hundred Family Head of the Spirit Creation stage was not someone they could deal with. The man in front of them was definitely not someone they could deal with!
The key point was, this man didn't use his cultivation at all, he actually used the pure strength of his fleshly body to instantly kill the Hundred Family Head of the Spirit Creation stage!?
Ye Fan took out the money from the Centurion and handed it back to the already stunned barbarian hawker.
With a glance, he signaled a cavalryman at the side. That fellow hurriedly took out all of his money and returned it!
The few cavalrymen did not dare to clean up the corpses. One by one, they rushed back onto their horses and fled. Clearly, they had sent a message!
The barbarian peddler let out a bitter sigh. He looked at Ye Fan with gratitude and worry: "Oh my benefactor..." How can you be here against the northern army?
This … This is not something that we civilians can afford to provoke! Even if you had a high cultivation, you still wouldn't be able to win against the army of the north!
Moreover, if you randomly use your cultivation base, you will become the target of public criticism. The further the better! "
Ye Fan was not in a hurry, and said with a smile: "Are these northern army always bullying you?"
Before the big guy could say anything, another barbarian trader on the side said, "Isn't that so? Knowing that we are afraid of being caught as spies, we will come to collect money every now and then!
"They only dare to bully the people on the prairie. They know that there's no one here to protect us …"
The group of men and women who had come from the Wilderness were unwilling to accept this outcome, but were unable to do anything about it.
"Benefactor, a warrior like you is actually willing to stand up for us on the grasslands. This is really the first time …"
"I will remember you for the rest of my life. Benefactor, you should hurry up and leave. It will be too late when the northern army calls for us!" The big man hurriedly advised.
Ye Fan asked, "If I leave, what will you do?"
The big bloke was moved to the point that his eyes turned red, "Benefactor, you don't have to worry. Although they have to take our money and things, they don't dare to kill people.
"If someone dies and the matter gets out of hand, then even Duke Zhen will have to ask about it!"
Ye Fan nodded his head. It seemed like they were at the border, and this sort of grey business wasn't even for one or two days. Everyone was already used to it.
Since he knew that nothing would happen to them, Ye Fan was relieved. He called out to Qing He and Jie Long, and continued to walk in the direction of the city.
Seeing that he could not persuade Ye Fan, the big barbarian had no choice but to shout "Thank you, my benefactor!" and "Please take care of yourself!".
Many of the onlooking commoners were also discussing and giving Ye Fan admiring looks.
Some of the barbarian people who couldn't speak any language praised Ye Fan and expressed their gratitude towards him with a smile.
Ye Fan was familiar with the barbarian language since he was reading the medical books of the barbarian race. Therefore, he could understand it completely.
As he walked, Ye Fan looked at the surroundings and fell into deep thought …
Ye Fan originally thought that the barbarians were just a group of barbarian bandits who had committed murder and set fires. But today, Ye Fan finally realized that the commoners everywhere actually didn't want to fight.
The people of the Great War were not necessarily good people, and not all barbarians were villains.
It was no wonder that the Ao Han Family was originally hunting in the Wilderness. They were able to take Gu Qing's family in as well. They were not as bad as the barbarians.
In this encampment outside of Beiming City, the barbarians and the people of the Great Conquest were doing business and communicating with each other in a harmonious manner …
Why, between the Wilderness and the Great War, did that group of high-ranking officials insist on fighting?
Even some of the resources that the tribes needed for the war could be settled through business. Was war really unavoidable?
"Mistress, are you worried about something?" How about I and Jie Long chase after those people and kill them all? " Qing He asked with concern.
Ye Fan came back to his senses, turned his head and smiled, "It's nothing. Killing them is of no use. I just sent them to inform them."
