" Hehe." The young man smiled awkwardly and bowed deeply."I have a request from you, but I'm afraid you won't agree, so..."
Liu Yuan frowned and thought to himself," It was just a mere encounter, yet he had a favor to ask of me. He had never seen this before. He immediately said,"We're just acquaintances…" However, there was a hint of rejection in his words.
" Hero, please listen to me," the young man saw Liu Yuan turn around and was about to get on the bull's back, so he called out anxiously,""There is a group of bandits occupying the mountain pass ahead. They are very fierce. I am afraid that the merchant group will suffer losses, so I asked the warriors to help me.”
"Oh?" When Liu Yuan heard this, he became interested and asked,""Your convoy has more than a hundred guards and is fully equipped with military equipment and armor.”
The young man said," You may not know this, but although there are only about fifty bandits, their leader is very fierce. Even if my caravan had more than a hundred people, it would still be a complete failure. I hope you can help me. I am very grateful."”
"So, that bandit is really a match for a hundred men?" Liu Yuan's eyes lit up.”
"Exactly."
"In that case, I shall see for myself. Ke ke…" Liu Yuan chuckled and thought," There weren't many brave generals in the three kingdoms who could fight against an army of more than a hundred people. They were also bandits and rangers, so they wanted to meet him.
The young man was overjoyed." Thank you for your help, warrior. When this matter is over, I'll definitely give you a generous gift."”
Liu Yuan shook his head. He did not lack money. The copper coins and gold cakes he had were enough for him to travel to Luoyang, so he said,"I didn't help you for some money. I just wanted to see those bandits who could fight against a hundred people. You don't have to thank me.”
" Hero, you are noble." The young man was embarrassed again." May I ask your name? I am Wuji Zhen Yi, the owner of the Zhen Trading Company."”
"Oh?" Liu Yuan's interest was piqued. He immediately sized up Zhen Yi from head to toe, left to right, but he was thinking about Luoshen Zhen Mi. Zhen Mi was the youngest daughter of this person in front of him. In the future…Hehe... Liu Yuan laughed in his heart.
Zhen Yi was frightened by Liu Yuan's gaze. The junior broke out in a cold sweat and forced himself to calm down."Hero…"
"Uh... Hehe…"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Liu Yuan smiled awkwardly."I heard that the four great Shang families in the world, Zhen, Mi, Wei, and Yan, are all extremely wealthy. Could it be that you belong to the Zhen family of Wuji?”
Zhen Yi suppressed the chill in his heart and took a deep breath.""Yes, it is me. I wonder if you are strong…"
"My name is Liu Yuan, also known as Zihong, and I'm from Yingchuan.”
"Oh! Your surname is the surname of your country!" Zhen Yi praised.
The two of them complimented each other, and the convoy set off slowly.
After walking for about an hour, the surroundings suddenly narrowed. It was two green mountains that sandwiched the official road. It was a good place to kill, set fire, rob, and ambush. After receiving Zhen Yi's orders, the caravan slowed down. Liu Yuan rode on Big Yellow and walked at the front. He squinted his eyes and looked ahead, occasionally emitting a cold light.
The caravan walked between the two mountains and became more careful. The people behind them also shrank back and got closer.
At this moment, a shout was heard from the forest, and more than twenty people rushed out from each side of the road. They were all big and round, and their faces were fierce.
"Hey! This road was opened by me, this tree was planted by me. If you want to cross this road, leave behind the money to buy the road!”
The leader was over nine feet tall and looked like he was fighting a short battle. His face was ferocious and his chest muscles were bulging. He had two short black iron halberds on his waist, a straw hat on his back, and a pair of tattered straw sandals on his feet.
This person took the lead and blocked the intersection, with an imposing manner. As soon as he finished speaking, he said,"Those who aren't merchants, scram! I only rob the rich, not the poor!”
The brawny man kept cursing, but his large eyes were staring at Liu Yuan on the back of the bull. His body looked relaxed, but his muscles were tense. He was already prepared for battle.
"Hero, this..." Zhen Yi had walked to the front and stood beside Big Yellow, looking at Liu Yuan with a worried expression.
" It's fine." Liu Yuan waved his hand and said nonchalantly,""This person is not my match. Don't worry, just watch the show from the back.”
Seeing that Liu Yuan was full of confidence and did not suspect anything, Zhen Yi returned to the carriage.
Liu Yuan pointed at the black-faced man and said,""I don't think you're a vicious person. Why are you robbing here?”
It was the vicious man who had let off the commoners who had followed the caravan even though he had scolded them fiercely. Liu Yuan had a good impression of this person in his previous life, and now he had the idea that seeing him was better than hearing about him.
"Bull rider, you are very powerful, but don't think of making me give up. My Dian Wei robbed the rich and helped the poor. He felt that he had a clear conscience. These rich families and aristocrats were all sinister. They exploited the bloodsuckers of the common people. If I didn't rob them, who would dare to?!”
Although Dian Wei's face was evil, his heart was pure.
"Dian Wei, you are wrong!" Liu Yuan pointed at the convoy behind him and said,"This convoy doesn't belong to the aristocrats. It belongs to the Zhen family of Wuji." The Zhen family of Wuji was one of the four great merchants of the Great Han Dynasty. Although they had some relations with the gentry, they had never bullied the people. Instead, they often helped others. Should they rob such a good merchant?”
"Zhen Family of Wuji?" Dian Wei glared at him. So it's the Zhen family of Wuji, I…I..." As she spoke, her face turned red and she didn't know what to say.，"What should we do, Big Brother?" asked Dian Wei.”
"How did I know?" Dian Wei glared at him. His neck shrank back.
The Zhen family did have many good deeds in Wuji. Sometimes, they would send out rice to help people in need. Moreover, their name spread throughout the Central Plains. It could be said that the Zhen family was indeed the kindest businessman on the surface, but no one knew what was going on in the dark. Liu Yuan deeply believed that as long as they were businessmen, which one of them did not have some filth? The bigger the business, the dirtier it was.
"Since that's the case, this matter is my fault. I'll take my men and leave now.”Dian Wei said and was about to leave.
"Slow down!"
Dian Wei turned around and saw that the bull rider had stopped him. He couldn't help but be furious. I've already lowered my head. What else do you want? It should be known that the paladins of the late Han Dynasty were actually the modern underworld. They valued their reputation the most, especially in front of their subordinates.
"What are you waiting for!"
Dian Wei's muffled shout made everyone's heart skip a beat, except for Liu Yuan.
"Hehe, big black guy, you can come and go as you please. Who do you think I am?”" What I said just now was to clarify the facts," Liu Yuan said." The matter before us has just begun. It hasn't been resolved yet!"”What he meant was that he could come and go as he pleased in front of him. He really didn't give him any face.
When Dian Wei heard this, he immediately understood. He dismissed the noisy crowd?，"Draw a path."
"Good man!" "You're a real man." Liu Yuan praised. If I lose, you can do whatever you want to me. If you lose, you can follow me.”
When Dian Wei heard this, he felt that people in the martial world should be like this, so he agreed. A crowd? They were even clamoring to see their big brother's might.
The crowd formed a circle, with many layers inside and outside. Even the civilians who had not left had gathered around to watch the show-a typical Chinese image.
Liu Yuan got off his mount, but he didn't take out his spear. He stood opposite Dian Wei with empty hands. He raised his eyebrows and signaled that they could start.
Seeing that Liu Yuan was facing him empty-handed, Dian Wei threw out a pair of iron halberds and said,""If you don't use a weapon, I won't either.”
"Hehe, it's better for you to take your weapon. Otherwise, if you cry after being beaten by me, you'll lose a lot of face!”
Liu Yuan only wanted to anger Dian Wei and test his strongest fighting strength.
"How dare you underestimate me!" Dian Wei was extremely furious. Ever since he started his career, no one had dared to look down on him. Those who looked down on him were all dead.
"Take a punch!"
Dian Wei roared, shaking the clouds. At the same time, he moved like a wind tiger, raising dust under his feet. His sandbag-sized fist went straight for Liu Yuan's face.
