Divine & Bizarre: Increasing Points to Invincibility-Chapter 383 - 151: All Yin Envoys Obey Daoist Priest Fan’s Orders! Another Encounter with Head Arrestor Liu! (10,000-Word Mega - , Please Subscribe)_4
Fan Wu did not pay attention to her. Last night, he had not killed even one vengeful ghost. Even after all those ghosts were extinguished, he could still have burst out with at least 0.5 to 0.8 Free Attribute Points.
In his eyes, the vengeful ghosts of Guyue Village were not yet at the point where they must be slain.
Daoist Priest Fan did desire to gain Free Attribute Points.
But that did not mean he was a minion driven by Free Attribute Points.
Fan Wu had his own judgment.
Soon.
It reached noon.
Guyuan County.
He had arrived.
"We are already very close to the border of Nanjun," Yun Jiuqing said enthusiastically as she led the Old Blue Ox towards Guyuan County, "Daoist Priest Fan, we only need to cross this Guyuan County, then, after a few more days of travel, we can truly leave Nanjun and step into the central territories of the Great Zhou Dynasty!"
Guyuan County was a bustling county town, with many merchants coming and going nearby.
There were also some farming men carrying firewood, charcoal, melons, fruits, and vegetables towards the town.
Moreover, Fan Wu noticed that here in Guyuan County, there were many guards.
Clearly, there were more than in other county towns.
Perhaps this was some sort of military stronghold.
After all, Fan Wu felt that the terrain here belonged to that which, during chaotic battles, was very easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as this place was securely defended, it would be difficult for large-scale enemy forces to penetrate directly and attack the Prefecture of Nanjun.
With that thought, it seemed quite normal.
The arrival of Fan Wu undoubtedly caused some disturbance among the local guards, since his tall and burly figure, carrying a large sword on his back, was inevitably sensitively perceived by others.
Fortunately, Yun Jiuqing was prepared.
Yun Jiuqing took out a token and presented it in front of a leader of the guards.
The guard leader glanced at it.
Then he was stunned.
He closely examined every pattern on the token and realized it matched the one in his memory. The wary expression on his face instantly dissipated, replaced by an attitude of appeasement and respect, "We are but plain folks who have offended you. Please, the two of you, come in!"
He was very polite.
And even humble.
Because the token Yun Jiuqing had produced was given to her by her father before she set out.
This was none other than the Prefecture Lord’s Token of Great Zhou’s Nanjun!
To ordinary guards seeing this token, it was almost equivalent to seeing the Prefecture Lord himself coming to Guyuan County!
How could he not be respectful?
How could he not be humble?
After Fan Wu and the others entered Guyuan County and their figures gradually faded away, one of the guard leader’s subordinates, with a trace of curiosity in his voice, tentatively asked, "Boss, who were those people just now? Why were you so polite to them?"
The guard leader rolled his eyes, "If I didn’t show them some courtesy, I might not be able to keep this helmet on my head! Do you know what that token was? That was the Prefecture Lord’s Token!"
"Hiss! The Prefecture Lord’s Token?!"
Even though these guards had never seen what the Prefecture Lord’s Token looked like, they had definitely heard of it. That’s why they were so shocked, their eyes wide and speechless. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
The guard leader warned, "Tonight, when it is time for a shift change to guard the city, remember to go back and tell people you know. If you see an exaggeratedly sturdy man and a very beautiful woman, never, ever, ever provoke them!"
"Yes, Boss!"
"..."
...
The guards of Guyuan County thought their low murmurs about Fan Wu went unheard by him, but in truth, every word they said was caught by his ears. However, Fan Wu did not take it too seriously.
As Fan Wu was walking down a street in Guyuan County, preparing to traverse the entire town—
Suddenly.
He saw someone with a preoccupied mind briskly approaching... And the reason he noticed that the person was preoccupied was that this fellow had completely failed to notice that there was a robust Old Blue Ox blocking the way in front of him.
Then.
Fan Wu watched as the person made intimate contact with the Old Blue Ox, which stood immovable.
On the contrary, the person was knocked down and landed on their rear end.
The impact of the fall caused the person to cry out in pain.
"Ouch!" The person had an expression of pain on their face, and even instinctively reached a hand towards their waist, only to find nothing there. It was then that he realized he carried no weapon and that this place was not his domain.
He struggled to his feet, clutching at what felt like a nearly shattered rear, and was about to make an argument.
Then he looked up ahead.
And in an instant, he was dumbstruck.
The person was dumbfounded!
It was as if he had seen a deity in broad daylight, shocked and excited at the same time. Perhaps he was too shocked or too excited, such that he even stuttered as he spoke, "Daoist... Daoist... Daoist Priest Fan! Is... is it you?!"
"It’s me, indeed! It’s me!" The person pushed aside the disheveled hair partially covering his face, revealing a countenance that was all too familiar to Fan Wu, and he hurriedly said, "Daoist Priest Fan, it’s me! I! Head Arrestor Liu of Qiulong County!"
Fan Wu: "..."
He was unsure if this was a coincidence or if the Great Zhou Dynasty was simply too small. He had not expected a casual entry into a county town would result in an encounter with someone he knew.
Head Arrestor Liu from Qiulong County!
This...
Was indeed someone familiar.
Ever since arriving in this world of supernatural wonders, the place where Fan Wu had stayed the longest and knew the most people was probably the small area of Qiulong County.
