Chapter 320 is really going all out!
Scarface arrived at the agreed location following the signal flare, but there was no one there. Just as he was about to leave...
Gu Nan, wearing a mask, walked out from the other side: "The signal was for you alone, why did you bring others with you?"
"Just because it's for him, does that mean we can't come too? Are you Gu people really that domineering?"
The speaker was Hong Lin. She directly stated Gu Nan's surname. Upon hearing Hong Lin's words, Gu Nan immediately drew his sword.
As he drew his sword, he turned to Scarface and asked, "Did you tell this woman?"
"It's so obvious, do you need anyone to tell you? Look at yourself, it's like your last name is written all over your forehead. Anyone who sees you can guess who you are. Do you think everyone else is as stupid and dumb as you?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Nan glared angrily at Hong Lin: "You damned woman, who are you?"
"Who I am is none of your business. I just need to know who you are. Damn it, if I had known he was here to see you, I wouldn't have come with him."
What a damn bad day! Of all things, why did I have to run into this Gu Nan? If I had known that big guy knew this piece of trash, I definitely wouldn't have listened to Hua Niang and come with them.
The two started fighting, and surprisingly, Hong Lin was just as good as Gu Nan. They exchanged several blows without either of them gaining the upper hand.
Cui Dazhu stood by and watched for a while, then moved closer to Scarface: "They've started fighting, aren't you going to do anything about it?"
"They're none of my business, I can't tell them what to do."
"Didn't you want them to do things for you? If you beat them up or cripple them, how can they do anything for you?"
Scarface thought about it and agreed, then walked over and stepped between the two men, making them stop.
He looked at Gu Nan calmly: "I called you here to do something, not to fight."
Gu Nan didn't sheathe his sword, but he also didn't intend to make a move. However, Hong Lin behind him wouldn't have it.
"Hey big guy, I haven't even settled the score with him yet, and you're blocking everyone like this, what's the meaning of that?"
"He still needs to find someone for me, so he can't continue fighting with you. If you want to fight, wait until he finds someone for me before you fight."
Honglin thought this was feasible, so she nodded: "Okay, you said it yourself. If you don't let me hit you then, I'll just kill you."
Before leaving, she gave Gu Nan, who was standing there, a fierce glare.
She decided to avoid hanging out with them from now on. She felt annoyed just looking at that person, and she was afraid she wouldn't be able to hold out for more than a few days before she couldn't help but kill him.
Scarface said he was looking for someone, so Gu Nan took him directly to the county government office. Instead of sending someone to look for him, they went directly to check the population of the entire Linjiang City.
Recently, everyone entering Linjiang City has been registered, so it's the quickest and easiest way to find someone to cause trouble here.
As long as the people Scarface is looking for enter Linjiang City, they will be registered here, and the city will be able to find them.
Gu Nan showed his token, and the prefect of Linjiang quickly had someone bring out the register.
"My lord, everything you need to see is here. This is it all, including recent and past registration books of refugees who have registered in Linjiang City."
"Whether they registered and left, or registered and stayed, it's all recorded here. Please take a look, gentlemen..."
Seeing those booklets, Scarface was in a bit of a predicament. He couldn't read at all, so how was he supposed to read them?
Gu Nan hadn't expected this problem. He asked the people in the county government to find a few scholars and wrote down their names for them to look for.
Five scholars were found, each with a roster. They quickly located them and learned that they were in villages around Linjiang City. Scarface immediately wanted to go there.
But Gu Nan stopped him: "Mr. Scarface, our master is looking for you."
Scarface had to stop after just one sentence, though he was a little confused as to why that person wanted to talk to him.
When he saw Gu Zhan, he was shocked because Gu Zhan was wearing a battle robe and armor with some bloodstains on it, indicating that he had just returned not long ago.
"Have you found them all? Do you know where they are?"
"Reporting to Master, we have found them all and know where they are. Master, you wish to..."
"No need, not for now. Now that we've found it, that's good. We don't need to worry about anything else."
After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Scarface: "I know you don't really want to see me, but there's something I need you to do..."
Half an hour later, Cui Dazhu and his group returned along the same route. He was a little confused. Wasn't it agreed that they were going to find someone?
Now that we know where he is, why isn't he going to go find him? Doesn't he want his wife anymore? Doesn't he want to see his wife?
Honglin is also very unhappy. He had agreed to fight that person, but unexpectedly, the person disappeared after they came out.
She turned to look at Scarface: "What did they say to you? What deal did they make with you? Why do you want to go back now?"
"We finally found her, why aren't you going to marry her? What are you doing back now?"
Although things are better now than before, it's still very cold on the way back. Even if they have food and can keep warm, it's still not enough to withstand such a long journey.
The three of them hadn't gone far when all of Honglin's dissatisfaction and complaints got stuck in her throat, because she saw the three horses tied to the tree.
When Honglin saw the three red-maned horses, his lips twitched. Damn it, they really are willing to spend a lot of money. But it's good to have power!
If they can even get such a strong horse out, it seems that bastard has more power than before!
Scarface said nothing, simply untied a red-maned horse, and then stepped onto it using the stirrups.
"If you want to come back with me, you can come back with me. If you don't want to come back with me, you can go find them. But there's one thing: you absolutely cannot reveal their whereabouts..."
Cui Dazhu mounted his horse immediately, saying, "I'm not going anywhere else, I'm just going back with you."
His old haunt, his home, isn't in that place, so why would he go there?
His wife isn't there, and he won't know anyone there, so it's better not to go!
Honglin told them both to go back, but she didn't want to stay either, so she mounted her horse and went back with them.
