Chapter 103 Not a Single Good Person
Jack ignored the mischievous myna bird and grinned, revealing a set of white teeth. "I didn't expect you guys to come too! Little Xiao has been talking about you guys all the time!"
"It's nice to see you again, Team Leader Jack! I never expected to run into you here again." It was natural for Fu Xiaojian to say the polite words.
Besides Jack and the suspected organizer of the Martial God Car Team, there were five other people discussing matters in the center of the square: four men and one woman.
A burly man with a fierce face, wearing an animal skin vest; an old man who was as thin as a rake and had hardly any hair on his head; and a middle-aged man in a suit, with a big belly and a smiling face.
The last man was a boy of about fourteen or fifteen years old, sitting cross-legged in mid-air; it was unclear whether he was a strange object or possessed a sequence ability.
"Finally, another sister has arrived! Being with these awful men is so unbearable!"
The only female team leader in the room was a young woman who looked to be about the same age as Lin Li.
However, unlike Lin Li's homely demeanor, this woman was more alluring, and every move she made was captivating. The burly man in the animal skin vest couldn't help but swallow hard when she spoke.
Xu Si glanced at the fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy a few more times; this was genuine levitation ability!
He was genuinely envious. The boy seemed to notice Xu Si's gaze and nodded at Xu Si with some surprise.
The only woman in the room swayed her hips and walked a few steps to Lin Li's side, trying to affectionately take her arm.
"This lady's convoy looks impressive! I wonder if she could protect me on this trip?" Her voice was soft and sweet, but as she spoke, her gaze intentionally or unintentionally drifted toward the people around Lin Li.
Apart from Jiao Jiao glaring angrily, the other men all seemed somewhat uncomfortable.
The man felt uncomfortable when she glanced at him. He snorted and turned his face away, his ears turning slightly red.
Lin Li gave her no chance to build a relationship, blocking her with her arm as she leaned in.
"Lin Li, leader of 'Flaming Chariot'."
Clearly, Lin Li wasn't interested in this kind of manipulative woman, and instead took the initiative to introduce her to the leader of the "Martial God Car Team".
"Salary Train Team, Fu Xiaojian," Fu Xiaojian gestured to the other team leaders.
As for the people they each brought, they all fulfilled their responsibilities, so no further details were provided.
"You've also come to help at Jia Zhenxin's invitation, right? I'm Wu Yue from the Martial God Caravan. Please, please..." He originally wanted to say please sit down, but there were no chairs in the room, and even those of them who arrived earlier were sitting on various stones.
Fu Xiaojian does have a moon chair, but he can't bring a moon chair when negotiating with others; that would be too unimpressive.
Xu Si bumped into Tashan.
Ta Shan wasn't stupid either. With a stomp of his foot, a stone chair appeared behind Fu Xiaojian, the kind that resembled a throne.
Zhuang Guodong followed suit, creating an oval-shaped fortress behind Lin Li, just the right size for her to sit down, or even lie down.
"Sister, don't be so heartless! I am Cheng Xinyi from the Beauty Caravan," the young woman said, swaying her hips with a look of regret.
"Xinyi, with your old ox protecting you, that woman's car is probably all show and no substance!"
The burly man in the animal skin, his face full of scars, laughed loudly, showing no regard for Lin Li and her convoy.
"This is Lu Meng, the leader of the Wild Bull Team, Sequence 2, Ren A," Wu Yue interrupted the burly man.
The members of the Fire Train team glanced at the burly man a few more times. This guy should also be a beastman. The werewolves and bears they had encountered before had not fared well.
The little girl glanced at Xu Si a couple more times.
"I am Cui Daoxuan from the Divine Turtle Caravan," said the gaunt old man, and Fu Xiaojian nodded in acknowledgment.
"I am Zhu Yu from the Wantong Merchant Caravan, a Sequence 2 merchant. If any of you have any goods you wish to exchange, feel free to come to my Wantong Merchant Caravan. I guarantee you will be satisfied with the price," said the middle-aged man in a suit with a smile and a large belly.
"And what about this young man?" Fu Xiaojian was clearly also interested in this fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy who could float.
"I am Wenren Jiujiang, Sequence 2 - Chanfang. I greet you all." The young man's voice was clear and crisp, with a composure that was not unique to young people.
Xu Si had always felt that something was wrong. Now, listening to this person, it was clear that this person's lineage was related to monks, as the aura of being unapproachable and detached from worldly affairs was far too obvious.
"Brother Wenren Jiujiang is a lone traveler with extraordinary abilities. He met our convoy on the road and came together," Jack explained.
Wenren Jiujiang's gaze lingered on Xu Si for a moment, then shifted to the "Messenger of Melting Wax" behind Xu Si. A hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and continued to sit cross-legged in mid-air, appearing detached from the situation.
Wu Yue coughed lightly and tapped his pipe in his palm, drawing everyone's attention back to him.
"It is an honor for my 'Martial God Caravan' to have all the team leaders here, and it is also a great guarantee for the success of this hunting operation. Regardless of whether you participate in this hunt or not, I, Wu, would like to express my gratitude." His voice was not loud, but it was calm and composed.
"Most of you are meeting for the first time. We were just discussing taking advantage of this opportunity to conduct a transaction before the hunt, and while we wait, we'll see if any other caravans arrive."
Wu Yue was the strongest in the arena, so everyone else gave him face.
As for Xu Si and the others, having achieved their goal, they returned to their respective convoys, handing over the authority to negotiate to their respective team leaders.
……
"Brother Dao, that guy can fly?" Xiao Luo hadn't followed them earlier, which must have been Fu Xiaojian's special arrangement, so he was now paying special attention to the boy named Wenren Jiujiang.
"And she's even better looking than Brother Dao! It's just that that slut doesn't look like a good person!" the little girl commented.
After a pause, the little girl added.
"That guy in the animal skin doesn't look like a good person either."
"Where's that old man?" Xiao Luo asked.
"Those two old men don't seem like good people."
The little girl was talking badly while sneaking around towards the center of the square.
The two old men he mentioned included not only Cui Daoxuan of the Divine Turtle Racing Team, but also Wu Yue of the Martial God Racing Team; they were the only two old men present.
"Where's that fat uncle?" Xiao Luo pressed.
"That chubby uncle looks like the owner of our school's convenience store, so he should be considered a decent person, right?" The little girl's standards were hard to imagine.
So, there wasn't a single good person to be found in the entire square.
"Oh right, Xiaoxiao's convoy is here too. Aren't you worried about her? Do you want to go see her? I'll go with you if you do," Jiao Jiao said.
"Until Captain Fu returns, you are not allowed to go anywhere," Su Su directly issued a stay-at-home order to the two of them.
"Fine, I won't go then!"
The little girl wasn't discouraged; all she could think about now was her grand plan to make money.
With so many convoys and so many people here, if she were to earn a single "mysterious drop" from each of them, the scene would be too beautiful to contemplate.
