Porter of Two Worlds - Chapter 42

Chapter 42: Prepare For Battle!

Meanwhile, somewhere near the dock in De Yang Town, in the hall of a huge residence, the middle-aged man that was handling the trade with Bai Yang and the others just now was now reporting what happened to someone like a dog wagging its tail at its owner.

Somewhere further in front of the man sat another middle-aged man, he was thin and slender and he was calmly sipping on his tea while listening to the report.

This man was the one managing every business on the dock, and after the fat middle-aged man finished his report, the man said without raising his head even for a bit, “So those fools are killed by the villagers, and those that survived are all crippled?”

“Yes, my lord.”

Replied the fat middle-aged man.

“Right, so if they are all bandits, they have to be punished, and that is what the officials want, yes? What do you think?”

The middle-aged manager looked expressionlessly at the fat middle-aged man.

“Yes, the bandits that terrorize the villagers are all punishable by death!”

The fat middle-aged man was drenched in cold sweat, and all he could do was agree blindly to what the manager said.

Because they were no longer useful after being crippled, they lost their value and along with it, the chance of living…..!

“So these villagers managed to kill bandits that outnumbered them by ten folds, just because of the finely made weapons and armor?”

The middle-aged manager squinted and asked darkly.

“Manager, there are no villagers in armor, there never was, and no one ever saw them!”

The fat man replied with a head full of sweat, but when he spoke, the stare from his eyes turned cold and bloody.

“Good, you are quite brilliant, remember, those armors can only be on the guards of Che Family, there are no foolish villagers in armor, clear?”

“Crystal. Soon, the armors and sabers will be with us!”

The fat man gritted.

The manager nodded, and his tone lifted up a little and frowned slightly, “And you mentioned about a young man, one with strange attire?”

“Yes, I saw him, right among the “dead people”, but he said nothing all the way through.”

“Hmmm, okay. That young man never existed, clear? Now, go do what you’re supposed to do, I’ll be waiting for your news,” said the manager after throwing the fat man a token.

The fat man left the scene with the token, and not long later, a few boats left the dock swiftly, each carrying masked men in dark clothing, all wielding dangerous weapons as they chased after Bai Yang and the others…..

Whatever the dock eyed on, they will all become the property of Che Family!

As for Bai Yang and the villagers, they took a quick trip to De Yang Town and returned in less than an hour….

Being stupid was actually a good thing, at least for some time, and Bai Yang understood the saying that ignorance was bliss.

After seeing how the villagers reacted as if everything was entirely reasonable, Bai Yang laughed like a madman that even his tears and mucus went everywhere….

What kind of a shitty world is this? The honest villagers are all castles to the rich?

This is not the way to do it, doing this will only bring divine judgment on you one day!

Bai Yang’s heart was burning, like an unstable volcano that was going to explode anytime!

But he had to hold back the bitterness and calm himself down.

He was in tears, because of how stupid these guys were, but also feeling bitter and sour for them, Is this the consequence of being stupid?

He looked towards the front with a gloomy expression, the sadness in his heart was now rage that could engulf the skies, and Bai Yang felt that there was a need for him to do something, or he would be the one that will be punished!

He never thought of himself as a good person, but he would never bring himself to do something like the Che Family did, something only the cruelest of the cruelest could do!

“Young master, is everything okay?”

Xiao Mao asked carefully.

Everyone could tell that Bai Yang’s emotion was not right at this moment, but no one knew why….

“I’m fine.”

With a long exhale, Bai Yang turned to Xiao Mao and asked, “Xiao Mao, if I am to do something, and people will die, countless innocents, will you still blame me?”

“No.”

“Why?”

“Because you are my young master!”

Xiao Mao looked at Bai Yang and said seriously.

Bai Yang burst out laughing again, his tears rolled down his cheeks, Look at just how naive and pure this stupid girl was, how could you be so cute?

Ignoring the bystanders, Bai Yang wrapped his arms around Xiao Mao’s waist and kissed her…..

Oh…..

The fool took in a deep breath, as he threw all his strength into hugging Xiao Mao after being touched by her words, but he forgot that she was fully armored up, so he rammed himself into the armor…..

The villagers around widened their eyes as they watched, and this was the first time they saw one person kissing another person on the mouth.

Xiao Mao’s face turned red slightly, but she did not evade Bai Yang’s gaze, her watery eyes looked right into his eyes and her heart pumped quickly….

When the rafts entered Lost Forest again, Bai Yang sat on the raft and thought.

I can’t let these black-hearted people continue cheating these foolish villagers, but if I do something, it will hurt the profit of many. In order to achieve equality, my fist will have to be larger than anyone else’s, so getting all the villagers in Lost Forest into an alliance is a must. Then, I will have to supply them with equipment, and with the addition of their knowledge of the Lost Forest, be it how many men they send, they will all be destroyed by the villagers. The only problem is the so-called martial artists, this is quite problematic, but it must be dealt with no matter what!…. Forget it, let us start slow…..

The honest was always bullied, and in this case, they could only blame themselves for being illiterate; they let the other side decide what to be traded, and allowed them to raise bandits to raid for them, just how black-hearted were they?

So, they must pay for what they did, right?

Bai Yang had a headache right away, pulling a string would affect the whole net. He wanted to get more gain for the villagers in Lost Forest, but that would also break the situation if he was not careful enough. He could bring disaster to the villagers, and even though he could run, what about the villagers?

He turned to Zhao Shi and asked, “How many people are there in the forest?”

“A lot. The villagers you saw are all villagers from various villages in the Lost Forest, and they are just the tip of the iceberg.”

Zhao Shi replied without thinking.

Shit, does that mean that there are more than hundred thousands of them living in the massive Lost Forest?

Hearing this, the weight he felt on his shoulders increased again.

“Can we contact them?”

“Of course.”

After learning what he wanted to learn, Bai Yang hurled out another difficult question, “Zhao Shi, so tell me, is there anyone among the villagers in Lost Forest that is actually not illiterate?”

This was the reason why the villagers did not realize something was wrong even after being cheated for so many years.

“Young master, we’ve been living in the Lost Forest for generations, we wouldn’t even get out of the forest if there’s a way for us to obtain essentials without trading. There is also nowhere for us to learn, so of course, there is no one that is literate.”

Zhao Shi replied.

Knowledge was extremely rare among them. If you are all illiterate, that makes you the perfect target to be cheated!

While mumbling, Bai Yang saw another intersection and he stood up, took a look at De Yang Town’s direction and said, “Zhao Shi, prepare yourselves for an incoming battle!”

The villagers were puzzled, they did not know why Bai Yang asked them to prepare for a battle, why would they get into a fight without any reason? There were no bandits anyway.

“Listen to me!” shouted Bai Yang.

After seeing these guys that spit no bone after chewing on people, he immediately knew it, if the bandits had nothing to do with De Yang Town, then he would live-stream himself eating shit! After hacking up their men, De Yang Town will definitely want their revenge, besides, the equipment was probably their target now!

He damaged the town’s bottom line and paraded his groundbreaking equipment around. There was no doubt that there would be a fight coming!

Bai Yang couldn’t be blamed as well, after all, he was not familiar with the situation.

“Heed my orders….”
