Chapter 454: First Trip
Chapter 454: First Trip
When Chu Mo learned that Zhang Haoyang was the only male in the Zhang family, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Who could have thought that the once famous General Shenwei, the man who dominated the battlefield and intimidated the enemy, his descendants did not follow the path of military practice.
The reason why Zhang Haoyang chose to be a novelist was not because he disliked military strategists, but because his family was in decline and he had no choice.
The two chatted a lot in the tavern. Chu Mo could be said to have empathy for Zhang Haoyang's experience. After a conversation, the two of them became more and more compatible.
Feeling that the Six Sword Slaves should have completed their mission, Chu Mo took Zhang Haoyang back to his room in the hostel.
Inside the room, Zhang Haoyang looked at the six masked killers in black. At this moment, he had a different feeling.
In his perception, if he had not seen them with his own eyes, he would not have been able to sense the existence of the six people, and he could not even detect their aura.
Zhang Haoyang knew that at this time every killer would practice some technique or magical power to restrain his own energy.
Although Zhang Haoyang could not sense the level of cultivation of the six people, if they could kill the monkey trainer, they could easily kill himself.
So since entering the house, Zhang Haoyang has become a little more reserved.
Zhen Gang came to Chu Mo and said truthfully: "My Lord, the monkey trainer has been dealt with by my subordinates according to your instructions. According to your instructions, all the little monkeys have been brought back."
Chu Mo nodded and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work. I will have to trouble you to guard the room for me. Go down."
Zhen Gang nodded in agreement, and the next second, six figures were seen shaking and disappearing in the room.
The Six Sword Slaves' inherent shadow-travelling technique allows them to come and go freely.
Zhang Haoyang, who was standing aside, only felt a moment of trance, and the six people disappeared.
Chu Mo looked at Zhang Haoyang with a smile and said, "Brother Zhang, I brought this person back to you. Now let's see how you can help them recover their human form."
At the Chu family mansion, arrangements for tomorrow's banquet for Chu Mo had just been completed, and Chu Nianheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Rubbing his eyebrows, Chu Nianheng stood up and walked towards the backyard.
The backyard is where Chu Yushan lives. At this moment, Chu Yushan is sitting in the stone pavilion, with her hands on the piano in a daze.
In her mind, she recalled Chu Mo's figure in the ruined temple, and all kinds of Chu Mo's performance in the ruined temple appeared before her eyes, which made her feel a different feeling in her heart.
"Shan'er, I'm going to invite Master Chu to a banquet at my house tomorrow to thank him for saving my life. When the time comes, you should follow your father and thank him in person."
Chu Yushan was startled by the arrival of her father Chu Nianheng.
Feeling his daughter's resentful eyes, Chu Nianheng immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't know Shan'er was sitting here in a daze. I'm rude."
"But did you hear what I just said? You must express your gratitude to them in person. This is the most basic attitude of our Chu family towards benefactors. You must take it seriously."
Chu Yushan nodded slightly and said, "My daughter understands. Don't worry, father. I will never lose my Chu family's etiquette in front of others."
Chu Nianheng nodded and said, "Okay, just remember this. I have other things to arrange, so I'll leave first."
Thinking of what her father had just said and that she could see that figure again, Chu Yushan's face couldn't help but turn red.
Early the next morning, Chu Mo looked at five children gathered around a table eating frantically, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
When Chu Mo turned them back into human form yesterday, he did not expect the five children to start crying. For a moment the whole room became chaotic.
So Chu Mo planned to take advantage of this banquet and, with the help of Chu Nianheng, send them to the local county magistrate and ask them to send the children back to their respective homes.
As for why Chu Mo didn't send him directly to the county magistrate, it was because he was afraid of being wrongly accused. If he was given the title of a human trafficker, he would be doing something thankless.
Chu Nianheng is different. Not only has he lived here for generations, he also has a certain prestige. In addition, Chu Nianheng is a juren and a wise man. How could the local authorities not trust him?
Having made up his mind, Chu Mo waited for the banquet time to arrive.
On the way to the banquet, Chu Mo was seen with four figures and five children behind him. Such a special combination made people on the street look back frequently.
Chu Mo didn't care about the looks from the people around him. Chu Mo just wanted to see Chu Nianheng as soon as possible and send these children to the local government office.
Soon, a group of people arrived at the gate of Chu’s mansion in a mighty manner.
Chu Mo's actions immediately shocked the servant who was cleaning in front of the door.
But after all, the head of the family had ordered that the guest for today's banquet was their young lady's savior, so they did not dare to be too presumptuous. They bowed slightly to Chu Mo, then turned and left.
Not long after, Chu Nianheng walked out of the mansion quickly with a smile on his face, and soon came in front of Chu Mo, showing great enthusiasm.
"Your Excellency has arrived early. I have prepared tea and cakes. Let's go in first."
As he said that, he walked forward and held Chu Mo's hand.
It was at this time that Chu Nianheng saw the five children behind Chu Mo, so he asked curiously: "Where did you find these children, benefactor? Do you need anything? My Chu family can lend a helping hand."
Chu Mo smiled when he heard that.
"It just so happens that I would like to ask Master Chu to do me a small favor. Please send someone to take these children to the government office and send them home."
"Yesterday we encountered an evil cultivator who used the art of animal creation. These five children were transformed into monkeys and paraded on the street for entertainment. We discovered their plan and rescued them."
"It may be a bit troublesome for us to report to the government office. I wonder if Master Chu is willing to help."
Chu Nianheng said immediately: "Since the benefactor has asked for help, and it is just a trivial matter, how can I not help? I will immediately send someone to send these children to the government office and explain the reason. I think the county magistrate will not say anything more."
"I just didn't expect that there would be such beasts in Guxuan Town. It's really annoying."
Chu Mo looked at Chu Nianheng and said, "Master Chu, don't be angry. This person is not from Guxuan Town. He fled here from another place yesterday. He has been killed by my people and will not harm the world anymore."
Chu Nianheng clapped his hands happily and said, "Well, it's not worth it to let such a beast die."
Chu Nianheng waved to the side, and soon Chen Zhen walked over quickly.
"Chen Zhen, these children were saved by a benefactor. Please send them to the government office."
But when Chen Zhen saw Zhang Haoyang, he stood there in a daze, and only came to his senses when Chu Nianheng touched him.
So Chen Zhen smiled apologetically and said, "Master, benefactor, I was distracted just now. Please repeat what you just said."
Chu Mo glanced back and forth at Chen Zhen and Zhang Haoyang with a hint of meaning, as if he had discovered a clue.
Seeing Chen Zhen asking again, Chu Mo said first: "How about this, my guards know what happened, you two can go together, it will save trouble, what do you think, Patriarch Chu?"
Chu Nianheng thought it was okay, it was not a big deal.
Watching Yang Jiye and Chen Zhen taking the five children away, Chu Mo suddenly felt relieved.
Chu Nianheng on the side said, "Leave it to them. Benefactor, let's not stand in front of the door anymore. Let's go inside and have a talk."
Led by Chu Nianheng, everyone walked into the gate of the Shen Mansion.
