"No, I can't bear it anymore. Can you find a place to buy some medicine?"
Ye Xuan, as a time traveler who had the cultivation level of a peerless swordsman in his previous life, naturally had no problem with such a small problem, because not long ago, he discovered that someone was following him. In order to make the other party believe that he had been poisoned by them, he had no choice but to go on with the performance to the end.
"Brother, don't worry. When that kid went to the inn to eat, I had already arranged for someone to put some ingredients in his food. At this time, he must be just like an ordinary person and has no idea."
The others chased after him from behind. Everything was under their control. Starting from the details, how does one say that money makes the devil work? Under the influence of money, the innkeeper had already fallen. He directly sprinkled the packet of medicine he gave to the other party on the other party's food perfectly, colorless and tasteless.
Don't look at me like that. You have to know that I am very proficient in this business. I can kill people without being seen. He can't detect it unless he is also an expert in this field.
While reporting to the other party, he already had his own plans, and everything was going according to his plan at the moment.
"Chase him quickly, don't let him get away. What else can we say at this point? We must bring him back to me."
"Brother, don't worry. With us attacking him from both sides, what can he do to fight us? Don't worry, it won't be long before he kneels down and begs us."
"I hope so! I hope we can complete the task within the specified time, otherwise we won't be able to hand it in. Let's start, right?"
A group of people followed each other from a distance like a tail, maintaining a safe distance and closely monitoring each other's every move.
It was not until the other party suddenly disappeared into the bushes that he became nervous.
"What happened? So many of us were keeping a close eye on him. Did he just disappear out of thin air? Or did something else happen?"
Just now, they were following each other and could still see each other's figures, but in the blink of an eye, they disappeared, which made them panic in an instant.
"Brother, don't worry! It was just an accident. It seems our medicine has taken effect."
Naturally, someone was doing this kind of work, and when they found out something was wrong, they immediately found a solution, allowing them to catch up with the other party again and discover his whereabouts.
"How is it? What happened just now?"
When they were following the target but suddenly lost sight of it, they were very nervous. Just kidding, this was a task they had finally taken on, so of course they had to perform well. How could it end in vain?
Brother, don't worry! I have investigated the other party. He is just an ordinary person. I don't know why he came here, but there is a saying that goes, "Don't show your money. I guess he has clues to the treasure."
Hearing this, he suddenly became interested and came over to confirm again.
"What are you saying? You should know that I don't like to hear false news. You'd better tell me the truth. What is the situation?"
While tracking the target, I also made my own arrangements. After comprehensive analysis, I finally felt relieved.
I see. Why didn't you tell me earlier? I was worried for nothing. Let's go. Hurry up and catch up.
One group of people was closely following from behind, while another group of people was quickly rushing to the interception point in front.
After a very fast march, the other group of people finally arrived at the designated location and were ready.
We came to a place called Yitiantian. After passing here, there was an endless plain in front of us. Sometimes it merged into the sea, and the sky was high and fish could jump freely.
The man who looked like the leader stood at the highest point, overlooking everything here. After thinking it over, he made arrangements on the scene. After a while, all the people who were at the scene just now took on their responsibilities and hid themselves.

"Sir, everything is ready. I just don't understand who he is. We can't find out his background. He is just an ordinary person. Why is he making such a high-profile fuss? I really don't understand what he has done to deserve such a big fuss."
One of the men expressed his doubts on behalf of everyone. At this time, another man was silent for a while, and then he said, "Brothers, sometimes you don't have to be so careful. You just need to catch this person for me. You will get benefits when the time comes. But now that the person has not been caught, there is no point in me telling you so much. Do you understand?"
Turning around and looking at everyone, I could clearly see everyone's doubts at this time. From the time I received the order to now, everything had happened very quickly.
"You just need to know one thing. If he's alive, you want to see him. If he's dead, you want to see his body. Don't ask any more questions."
There was simply no time to explain too much to them, but this is not a reason, nor an excuse.
"Report to the Lord, the target has appeared three miles away. What should we do now?"
Ye Xuan pretended to be poisoned, staggering from side to side, and deliberately picked up a wooden stick to support himself in front of his hidden enemy, trying his best to be as realistic as possible.
"Oh, keep passing the order to me, keep monitoring him. Don't worry, he has already fallen into our trap. As long as we find him at the right place and at the right time and tighten the trap, he will not be able to escape."
Several people hid again, waiting for the target to arrive.
Ye Xuan only had some preliminary information. When he heard that some demons had appeared, he thought he would be able to find out what was going on in that place. As a result, he encountered the scene before him.
"Well, what's going on? Am I being targeted? How is this possible?"
When he thought about what happened recently, he felt very confused, but fortunately, he was also a very determined person. As long as he made a decision, he would move towards his goal step by step and he would always get there.
"How is it? Didn't you just say it was only a mile away? Why haven't you come yet?"
I saw a figure from afar, walking towards here unsteadily, but I found it very quiet at this time, so I couldn't help but feel confused.
"Okay, the people are here, let's start the work."
There was no rush anyway, so he just walked slowly on his way. As a result, he noticed a scene in front of him: a dark cloud surrounded him.
"Leave your money for passage, kid, or you won't make it alive."
Suddenly a group of people appeared and spoke directly to the point, staring at him with murderous eyes and weapons in hand.
"What's going on? We've disguised ourselves well enough, but is there a flaw somewhere that made them discover us? How is this possible ?"
"Never mind. Maybe I'm overthinking it, or maybe I'm just seeing things. Let's go take a look first."
Ye Xuan looked at the surrounding environment. Wow, the mountain with steep cliffs directly divided the road into two halves. It can be said that one person can guard the pass and ten thousand men cannot break through.
I see. I feel like I'm being ambushed here. It seems like these guys have figured it out and are ready to take advantage of me. Why don't they show weakness first and see what's going on?
After making up his mind, he acted as if nothing had happened and came in front of the other person like an ordinary person.
"Gentlemen, I'm new here. If I do anything wrong, please criticize and correct me."
Ye Xuan just wanted to get to the destination as quickly as possible to find out the news and didn't want any problems to occur on the way. As a result, what he just thought about came true and he encountered it again. It became very embarrassing.
He was very tactful and took out a piece of gold and handed it to the hand of a man who looked like a small leader, hoping that he would be flexible and let him go. As long as he left this passage, he would be like a Buddha who had arrived in the sea.
As a result, the unexpected situation happened. The other party took the things directly and still looked at him hungrily. As a result, they waved the big man and surrounded him directly, showing no sign of retreat.
"Gentlemen, what's the matter? This is all I have. If you are still not satisfied, I will give you the contents of this package. How about that?"
Ye Xuan understood very well that sometimes it is not a question of money, but a question of whether the other party will let you go. As a result, when he saw the other party's performance, he realized that the other party must not have decided to let him go.
"Boy, if there were no instructions from above, I would consider letting you go, but now that you've gotten into big trouble, I can't let you go. I can let you suffer less, so how about coming with us?"
Several people had murderous looks in their eyes and held weapons in their hands, almost putting them on his head. After taking his gold, they became much more polite and directly pointed out his current situation, which was also indirectly revealing more information.
The two sides fell into a brief stalemate. Ye Xuan was trying to find a solution, and the other side was also trying to find a solution. In short, while persisting, they were both considering maximizing their own interests.
"Hurry up and think about it. I'll give you a few minutes at most. There are still sixty seconds from now. If you don't make a decision, let the knife in my hand make the decision for you?"
The team leader obviously had no patience at this time. He could only be given one minute at most. If he was given one minute, it would pass quickly.
Ye Xuan wanted to get away with it, but this approach was not working. Just when he was about to reveal his strength, the person who really made the decision appeared in front of them.
"Why are you treating our important guests like this? You must explain clearly. What is the difference between you and robbers? You should know that we are people of class. Please pay attention to your words and actions."
As soon as he appeared on the stage, he brought his own radiance, suppressing everyone else's radiance. Everyone could see that the team leader just now had restrained his thoughts. The moment the two people's eyes met, they both understood that this was the one who really called the shots.
