Chapter 3472: Chapter 3472: Where Are Your Parents?
Suddenly, a voice reached the head of the Evil Cultivators’ ears.
His eyes turned sharp as he looked at that person, "Do you think it’s not okay?"
The voice carried a threatening tone, as if suggesting that if the person said no, he would take action and twist his head off.
He didn’t want to die; if this person wanted to die, he could certainly fulfill that wish!
"No, no, boss, that’s not what I meant." The person hurriedly waved his hands, seeing his boss’s fierce gaze.
"I just think, if someone is stealing grain and we don’t tell the master, letting that person do as they please, wouldn’t it... If the master finds out later that someone betrayed him by stealing grain, we still wouldn’t pass that hurdle."
Wouldn’t they end up dead?
Moreover, originally it was just doing poorly, having the grain stolen, and now it’s also covering up, which adds another layer of guilt!
The master sparing them would certainly be strange.
"Are you stupid? Who would willingly report this matter to the master for no reason!" The head of the Evil Cultivators glared fiercely at the subordinate.
Faced with such a situation, he’s only thinking of hiding it as fast as possible; who would on purpose bring it in front of the master, seeking death?
After stealing the grain, if you don’t quickly hide your tracks, why make trouble?
Does he think everyone is as foolish as Ge Leader?
"Then... do we keep moving?" A weak voice from an Evil Cultivator asked while raising a hand.
"Move."
The head of the Evil Cultivators nodded without hesitation.
"Move less this time."
In order to cover up the stolen grain, the only thing to do is to move it in small amounts multiple times; there’s no other way, otherwise it would be discovered sooner or later.
Sigh, he really didn’t understand what those people who sealed Rock City were thinking; weren’t they just asking for his life?
Once the grain was moved and Ge Leader was notified to come and take it, the head of the Evil Cultivators returned the key to Yang Tianxiu. Coming out of Yang Tianxiu’s study, he was drenched in cold sweat.
Luckily, Yang Tianxiu was still angry at Ge Leader and didn’t ask too many questions, nor did he notice anything unusual.
This time, he narrowly got away with it.
He could only hope that the person secretly stealing grain wouldn’t strike again.
If it happened again, he really wouldn’t be able to cover it up, it would be discovered sooner or later, he thought, and surely no one would be so foolish as to steal from the same place repeatedly, right?
And compared to the head of the Evil Cultivators’ unease, Ge Leader was equally anxious inside.
This time, he truly offended the master, hearing from a trusted Evil Cultivator by the master’s side that the master was still angry.
Who else could the master be angry at? It was clear as day that it was none other than himself.
Because of this, when it came time to distribute grain, he didn’t dare to keep any for himself and distributed all according to the set proportion, fearing that the master might someday want to use him as an example and criticize him for hoarding the grain.
As a result, all the Evil Cultivators in the city might just end up eating a poisoned meal.
...
Night, very quiet.
Once again, it was that old courtyard.
Xiao Yi arrived early and waited in the courtyard for quite some time before Qian Yizheng appeared, bringing along the little baby, albeit a bit late.
Seeing Qian Yizheng bringing a baby again, no, to be precise, two babies, though the other one was slightly older, was the one brought previously.
He was utterly speechless.
"You guys..." Is there no adult at home?
He really wanted to ask this, but thinking that saying so would offend them, he kept quiet.
