Chapter 25 Trade
"Fellow, please wait!"
Li Shiming was strolling towards the official boat when he heard a voice calling out from behind.
If it weren't for the fact that this was a government-operated dock, surrounded by officials and soldiers, upon hearing the call he almost took out the 'white phosphorus grenade' from the room's space to fire at whoever was behind him.
In the Cultivation World, hearing such familiar words made him feel extremely uneasy.
He turned his head to see who had spoken.
It was a man in his thirties wearing a blue robe, with a round face.
Li Shiming's gaze swept across the round-faced man's waist, and he immediately understood why the man had called him 'fellow'; he could see a storage bag at the man's waist.
To his surprise, the round-faced man turned out to be a cultivator; the cultivators he imagined certainly wouldn't take an ordinary boat.
Cultivators, if not able to fly through the skies, should at least be able to move as fast as the wind and would not fancy slow official boats.
"May I ask what this is about?" he asked, without calling the other man 'fellow.' Si Qin and Mo Yan, as well as the four guards, were not far away, making the appellation 'fellow' too strange to use.
"I've forgotten to introduce myself, I am Fan Yiyang. As fate has brought us together on this boat, I just wanted to greet you," the round-faced man replied with a smile, his eyes holding a curious look.
Of course, Fan Yiyang found it strange; Li Shiming was clearly wearing a lower-grade defensive robe and had a lower-grade longsword magic artifact at his waist, with what appeared to be a storage bag bulging at his lower back.
