Chapter 40
As she walked, she suddenly heard some people bargaining .
“You are asking for 20 silvers just for this one person? I say, Qian Yazi, aren’t you a little black hearted?”
“Sir, look closer, does he really seem like a normal person to you? Look at his physique, he clearly knows martial arts, if you buy him, he will surely become a good guard for your house . ”
“He looks so sick and skinny, you sure he’s not going to die anytime now? Ha! And you still say that he can do martial arts . You can continue waiting for that 20 silvers to drop into your hands!”
“Ai, Sir, don’t go, don’t go, can’t we talk about it . Ai, how about 10 silvers……”
Mu Yunyao glanced at the scene . When her gaze landed on the person who was sitting on the ground with his hands and feet bound, she stopped in her tracks . This person……this person……she quickly walked towards him and took a closer look at him . However, she was roughly pushed away by Qian Yazi .
“Where did this beggar come from, go away!”
Mu Yunyao raised her head and kicked him . “Qian Yazi, have you gone blind? You don’t even recognize me?”
Qian Yazi was shocked when Mu Yunyao kicked him . When he raised his head, he looked carefully at her . He could not help but swallow . Before, he had taken a mere glance at her and only noticed that her face was covered with dirt . But now that he looked carefully, he realised that this young boy had red lips and pure white teeth, he had a pair of beautiful dark eyes and had an aura of a n.o.ble . He was definitely not a normal person .
“Aiya, this young master here, why are you dressed like this? Is this a game you’re playing? Please forgive this one for not recognising your importance . ”
“Hmph . How much is this person worth?”
“Young master has a good eye . This person is only worth 20 silvers . Look, he knows martial arts . You would definitely be able to show him off . ”
Mu Yunyao put her hands behind her back, raised a leg and nudged the person on the ground . “Look up, if you are suitable, I will buy you . ”
The person on the ground raised his head . He had a pair of cold eyes .
Mu Yunyao’s heart trembled, as if a knife was touching it . It is indeed him! Jin w.a.n.g’s most loyal bodyguard!
When she had become Jin w.a.n.g’s concubine, she always saw this silent person right behind Jin w.a.n.g . She had initially thought that he was a normal bodyguard, but at that particular banquet, this man had used his sword to kill the a.s.sa.s.sins . His swordsmanship was enthralling . He did not seem human .
Afterwards, she chatted with a female servant and found out that that bodyguard was bought by Jin w.a.n.g on a street . It was said that he only spent 10 silvers . She became very curious and studied him . When that bodyguard looked at her, those icy cold eyes that seemed to be coated with blood made her shiver . She had nightmares for two consecutive days . She no longer dared to study him .
“Young master, so how about it? You can show him off!”
“5 silvers, if you agree then I will buy him . ”
“No way, no way, 5 silvers is too little . ”
“Fine, goodbye . ” Mu Yunyao turned and walked away . Qian Yazi quickly chased after her, “Young master, just add a little more and I will sell him to you . ”
“Then 6 silvers . Not anymore than that . ”
“This……alright . Young master, this is is slave contract, please take it properly . ”
Mu Yunyao took out 6 silvers and threw it to him . She ran to person on the ground and squatted down . “I spent 6 silvers to buy you . From now, on, your name shall be Liu Liang . ”
(T/N: “Liu Liang” translates to 6 pieces (of silver) . )
The slave trader handed the rope to Mu Yunyao . “Young Master, this person is yours now . ”
Mu Yunyao kicked Liu Liang’s leg . “Are you dead? If you aren’t, then get up and follow me . ” As she finished speaking, she walked away without looking back . When she had taken a little more than 10 steps, she heard the sound of footsteps behind her . She narrowed her eyes and thought: It seems that after being reborn, the Heaven’s were all on her side . She actually met Jin w.a.n.g’s future most trusted bodyguard . It’s clear that the Creator likes to play with his creations . Nevertheless, she liked this .
(T/Nonsense: Finallyyyyy Liu Liang appears（＾ν＾）)
