Chapter 2728: White Jade Gourd

“It’s just me alone, you have a whole team, why do you want to come with me?” She said casually with a smile.

When the middle-aged man heard this, he smiled: “To tell you the truth, we have been trapped here for several days and haven’t been able to get out of the forest. When I saw Your Excellency here, I thought that maybe Your Excellency can take us out of the forest.”

He didn’t hide his intentions, and stated his plans. In his opinion, it was extraordinary that this young man had dared to come here alone. Not to mention that their team was trapped here, and though he was alone, he was idle, so he must have a plan.

Those who could come to this place were no ordinary people. Even if the young man in front of him didn’t appear to be very strong, he didn’t dare to be careless and offend him easily.

“I see!” Feng Jiu held her chin in one hand and stared at him for a while, then she said: “It’s fine for me to take you out of the forest, but it should be beneficial to me too, don’t you think?”

Everyone who heard this was stunned for a while. They had never met a young man like this who would ask for benefits. Though they were astonished, when they thought about it, it was actually quite normal.

If he showed them the way out of this hellish place, it only seemed fair that he deserved some favours from them.

For a while, the people behind him looked at their middle-aged leader, as if they were waiting for him to make a decision.

The middle-aged man looked at the red-clothed boy sitting idly and didn’t respond directly, but asked: “I wonder, what would you like as a reward?”

“I don’t want any gold or silver or jewellery. I can accept any strange things or precious elixirs.” She smiled and looked at the middle-aged man as she watched him deep in thought.

The team behind didn’t speak, they just stared at Feng Jiu and observed her quietly.

The middle-aged man thought about it and took some items out of space, then he put it in front of him: “Your Excellency, is there anything you like?” It was normal for young people to like strange things, but why did they need precious elixirs? What need could he have for it?

Feng Jiu looked at the things in front of her and saw several elixirs, but they weren’t precious or rare. So she only glanced at them, then turned her eyes to those little items.

They weren’t little items that were placed in street and alley stalls. In her opinion, those items were more like small gifts, probably things that he wanted to bring home.

While she was thinking, she heard the voice of the middle-aged man.

“Some of these items were things that I collected on my journey, some of them I bought to take home. In fact, I was going to take them home as gifts. It just depends whether Your Excellency likes any of them.”

Feng Jiu’s fingers swept over the items and finally landed on a white jade gourd the size of a palm. She picked it up and looked at it, finally, she said: “Fine, this will do!” Although the items were ordinary, she liked the white jade gourd.

The middle-aged man couldn’t help but be stunned when he saw this and glanced at Feng Jiu with a strange expression. He had found the white jade gourd in the forest, and when he realised that it was a magic weapon, he had cleaned it and prepared to bring it back for his children. He hadn’t expected the young man to take a fancy to it.
