Chapter 4 Destiny Is Life and Death, Wealth Is in the Sky

In the inn, Chu Xiu rubbed his face in front of the bronze mirror. Just now he killed a person neatly and acted extremely fiercely, but he didn't feel any discomfort at all.

In his previous life, Chu Xiu had watched underground black boxing and killing games in search of excitement, but he had never killed anyone himself.

Most of his own performance just now was due to the memory of this life.

When he was in the Chu family before, Chu Xiu was really useless, but in a place like Nanshan mining area, facing all kinds of criminals and murderers, Chu Xiu's original character will be affected by the environment, from cowardly to violent and crazy, even in the In his memory, he seemed to have killed several disobedient criminals in the Nanshan mining area before.

Now Chu Xiu vaguely understands why in the original world, his body has changed from a cowardly family bastard to the final villain of the third edition. This experience in the Nanshan mining area has had a great impact on Chu Xiu .

Maybe even the Chu family couldn't think of it, because of their family struggle, the result was to create a big devil who confuses the world.

After nightfall, Chu Xiu suddenly called one of his servants, Gao Bei.

Gao Bei is in charge of managing the ten or so servants under him. Of course, although he is called a small boss, he is actually a servant, and his status in the Chu family is very low. Otherwise, he would not have been sent to follow Chu. retired.

In Chu Xiu's memory, this Gao Bei was mediocre. He came to the Chu family when he was a teenager. He has always been a handyman. He was taught some superficial martial arts, reached the Body Tempering Realm, and practiced with the caravan a few times, but he was still unknown in the Chu family.

A year ago, Chu Xiu was framed by his third brother and made a big mistake, and was relegated to the Nanshan mining area. However, he is the second son of the Chu family after all. Even if he is not taken seriously, at least some reliable ones should be prepared for him. As a servant, Gao Bei, who has been working hard all this time, was thrown to Chu Xiu's side.

However, he is honest and has no complaints. Being by Chu Xiu's side this year is no different from being with the Chu family.

"Young master, are you looking for me?"

Gao Bei walked in cautiously and looked at Chu Xiu with a hint of fear in his eyes. It was obvious that what happened during the day had brought him a great shock.

Chu Xiu looked at Gao Bei and said indifferently: "Gao Bei, you have been in my Chu family for more than ten years, and you have been working diligently, but in the end you are still a servant. You get two taels of silver every month, which is only higher than that of a handyman who sweeps the floor." Some.

The people who entered the Chu family with you were either transferred to the caravan, or became the shopkeepers of various shops, and some even became the stewards of the Chu family. Do you feel unwilling? "

Gao Bei pursed his lips. He wasn't really stupid. Seeing that his companions who entered the Chu family with him were farther than him, he was always the stupidest because he didn't know how to flatter others and always offended others. At the lowest level, of course he would feel uncomfortable.

However, the only advantage of Gao Bei is that he has self-knowledge. He smiled wryly at Chu Xiu: "Young master, I am Gao Bei and I am stupid. The Chu family has not kicked me out for so many years, and even let me start as a sweeper and do odd jobs." The servant has become a bodyguard to serve the Second Young Master, the villain is already content."

Chu Xiu looked directly into Gao Bei's eyes and said: "No, you are not satisfied. Even if it is a local dog, you have fed him lean meat for a year, and it is not willing to eat leftovers with rice. Dogs are like this, even more so. Don't talk about people, people will never be satisfied."

Chu Xiu's gaze seemed to be able to see the bottom of his heart through his eyes, which made Gao Bei take a step back, his mouth moved, but he didn't know what to say.

Looking away, Chu Xiu said slowly: "You know what my status is in the Chu family. If you are sent to my side, then we will lose and both will prosper."

Gao Bei hastily said: "The villain understands."

Chu Xiu shook his head and said: "No, you don't understand, life and death are fate, wealth and honor are in the sky. You have to rely on yourself to grab and fight for everything.

Some of the servants who joined the Chu family with you became shopkeepers, and some became stewards, but most of them died in the caravan, in the struggle between my Chu family and other families. "

Speaking of this, Chu Xiu's tone became deep and said: "Future, wealth, these are all fighting for your life. You didn't even have the chance to fight for your life before!

Now I will give you a chance to go to Shangmang Mountain outside Yuanbao Town, find the bandit leader there, and tell me a word. It's done, one hundred taels of silver is yours, and you, Gao Bei, will be my confidant from now on. "

As he said that, Chu Xiu directly put the one hundred taels of silver bills on the table, and said indifferently: "According to your monthly money in the Chu family, even if you don't eat or drink, how many taels of silver can you save in a year?

I still remember that both of your parents died, but you still have a young brother entrusted to your uncle's house, should he be an adult now? If you want to find a wife in Tongzhou Mansion, the price is not low. "

A look of struggle flashed across Gao Bei's face, Shangmang Mountain outside Yuanbao Town is not a good place, it's a barren hill with no roads, but it's full of bandits, all of them are masters who kill people when they disagree with each other. Now the Second Young Master wants to find them by himself?

But the price offered by Chuxiu in front of him was something he couldn't refuse.

He is an honest man, but because of his honesty, he cannot see opportunities and hopes for success in this life.

Now Chu Xiu put an opportunity in front of him, even if he was in danger of dying, Gao Bei was not willing to give it up.

In the end, he still gritted his teeth and took the one hundred taels of silver note in his hand.

If it was Chu Xiu in the past, Gao Bei would 100% not agree, but seeing Chu Xiu's ruthless side today, he was surprised and respectful in his heart, and dared not refuse.

Chu Xiu nodded in satisfaction. He called Gao Bei over, gave him a few instructions, and asked him to leave overnight.

Looking at the back of Gao Bei leaving, Chu Xiu's eyes flashed a gleam, and he was not afraid that Gao Bei would just leave with the money just like that.

He can afford to lose one hundred taels of silver. After all, he is the second son of the Chu family, the manager of the Nanshan mining area, and the Chu family sends him hundreds of taels of money every month.

What's more, he was sure Gao Bei didn't dare.

He also has a younger brother in Tongzhou Mansion, who was raised by him since he was a child, and even his younger brother is like his own son. If he dares to escape, the Chu family is not a good man and a faithful woman.

In the early morning of the second day, when Chu Xiu and others set off, Yue'er didn't see Gao Bei, so she couldn't help wondering, "My lord, where is Gao Bei?"

Chu Xiu said casually: "Gao Bei returns to Tongzhou Mansion first, and is going to tell the mansion that we are almost here."

Yue'er didn't doubt it either. After all, Chu Xiu was also the second son of the Chu family. Before returning to the family, he had to inform him of his location in advance.

But Yue'er sneered in her heart, whether you will be able to return to Tongzhou Mansion smoothly this time is still unknown!

The carriage was walking hard on the small road of Shangmang Mountain. Compared with the main road, Shangmang Mountain was indeed much closer, which could save many days of time.

However, there are endless bandits here, and some caravans with powerful guards are fine. When encountering single merchants or weaker caravans, those bandits usually kill people and rob goods, and their methods are extremely cruel.

Inside the carriage, perhaps knowing that the matter was about to begin, Yue'er had an unnatural look on her face.

At this time, Chu Xiu, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes, which shocked Yue'er.

"Yue'er, do you think we will meet bandits?" Chu Xiu asked calmly.

Yue'er forced a smile: "Young master, don't say such unlucky things. Besides, even if you meet bandits, they will definitely not dare to touch you. After all, you are from the Chu family, young master."

At this time, Chu Xiu suddenly showed a half-smile expression on his face and said: "It's a blessing, not a disaster. It's a disaster that can't be avoided. What should come will always come. Besides, sometimes natural disasters are not terrible, but man-made disasters are terrible."

Before Yue'er could speak, there was a shout of killing outside, Chu Xiu got out of the car and said, "Look, isn't the man-made disaster coming now?"
