Chapter 2760: Chapter 2760: Want These Fruits?
As he spoke, he sighed inwardly, how could it only be possible to buy twenty pounds of things? If it were possible to buy more, how great it would be.
What a pity, what a pity.
The person beside Gong Cheng quickly packed the things the guard wanted, making everything easier thereafter.
As Gong Cheng said, in less than a quarter of an hour, all the grains, vegetables, and meat in the shed were sold out. Fortunately, Gong Cheng had instructed a few guards earlier to send some items into the Battle Cloud Camp, or else they themselves would have nothing to eat.
After everyone had left, Qian Jiyun and his partner followed Gong Cheng and his group into the Battle Cloud Camp.
Along with them was the guard, Old Lin.
He was still looking to the fruits Gong Cheng promised him to appease those little ancestors in the camp who caused a fuss for three meals a day, so he could only follow along.
“Second Brother, should we let him come over now?”
Gong Cheng followed Qian Jiyun and his partner into the camp and asked softly.
“Yes.”
Qian Jiyun responded, and brought An Jiuyue back to their tent.
This tent had always been reserved for him, and now the only ones living here were his two eldest sons, who were ten years old and currently hanging around with the guards at the protected ground, not in the camp.
“Let him come in, you go to the protected ground…”
“Got it, got it, you want me to find Zheng’er and Rong’er, right? I’ll go right away.”
Before Qian Jiyun could finish, Gong Cheng already knew what he wanted to say, how long it had been since he’d seen his sons. Whether his second brother missed them or not, he didn’t know, but his sister-in-law certainly believed in her sons.
…
Not long after, Old Lin was brought into the tent by Even Yan Nuo, feeling a bit bewildered.
Why was there suddenly a different person here to greet him, and they even brought him in front of these two people, what did this mean?
He remembered these two well, they had been following Gong Cheng closely on their way here. He thought they were newcomers, but it turns out they weren’t?
An Jiuyue noticed Old Lin’s uneasy expression and took out a basket of fruits from her space, placing it beside her.
“Do you want these fruits?” she asked Old Lin.
“Hiss!”
Old Lin had never seen so many fruits even at Huayan Peak, and he couldn’t help but gasp.
No, it was not like he had never seen this many. Huayan Peak also had lots of fruit, but they were inedible, carrying a taste that didn’t belong to fruits. They could eat them, but the little ancestor in the camp wouldn’t touch them.
Moreover, he just saw this girl seemingly pulling the fruits out of nowhere, like magic.
“You… who are you…”
Of course, he wanted the fruits, but he wanted his life even more. Now he felt as though his life was being threatened.
What to do, could he escape now and give up on these fruits?
“Who we are, don’t you have a clue?” An Jiuyue asked him in return.
Old Lin: “…”
He had some clue but couldn’t understand why these two had summoned him and what they wanted.
He might be a guard of the Intermediate Plane, but he had little influence in the camp, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been sent to serve that little ancestor.
“I… guessed some of it.”
He spoke cautiously, trying hard not to offend the two ancestors in front of him.
If it was a joke to call the little one in his camp an ancestor, the two before him were indeed true ancestors. He knew a bit of what had happened at Huayan Peak.
