Chapter 189 - 149 Matters of the Ghost_2
Jin Dafu immediately stood up upon seeing this and shouted into the shop, "Hurry, prepare the horses. Listen up, everyone, the eldest disciple of the Zhao’s Martial Arts Hall, Li Yi, Mr. Li, is now our new master. Don’t get it wrong next time, or I won’t let you off easily."
Shortly thereafter,
Li Yi had left the city on horseback with this newly acquired servant.
At that moment, he truly felt the benefits of being powerful. Indeed, wherever he went, people would kowtow and pledge allegiance on the spot, and many others who wished to kneel before him had no chance to do so.
As for whether this Jin Dafu was truly loyal, he didn’t care. A martial artist of the Lower Three Ranks only at the Bone Training level and already in his thirties had little potential. Should any issues arise in the future, he could be casually disposed of.
However, if Jin Dafu was smart enough, he could probably only cling tightly to Li Yi’s coattails for the rest of his life, not daring to harbor any thoughts.
Arriving outside Sanyang City,
Li Yi rode his horse to the top of a high slope, surveyed the surroundings, and finally pointed to a range of mountains not far away, asking, "Is there an estate over there?"
"Master, that’s the Daqing Mountain Range. There are indeed estates at the foot of the mountain, but not many, because it’s close to the forest which is full of spirit monsters and ghosts, and ordinary people do not wish to build estates too near to the mountain," Jin Dafu explained.
"Would I fear spirit monsters and ghosts? Let’s go, follow me to have a look," Li Yi said, and then spurred his horse toward the Daqing Mountain Range.
Speaking of spirit monsters, the Eight Treasure Deer following behind him was one of them. As for ghosts... he was quite curious about the power of the ghosts in this world and whether he could defeat them. If he could master a way to deal with ghosts, that would be perfect, as it would definitely come in handy when he returned to Tianchang City, where the old city area had its share of weird occurrences.
