Chapter 136: Do One Good Deed a Day (Subscribe)
The tavern owner looked at Mu Sheng curiously, amazed that he could survive from a dozen horse bandits and even fight back.

The tavern owner was very sure that the horse bandit was dead. Forgiveness never existed in the dictionary of the gangsters who roamed around in this Gobi Desert. The horse was here, so the man must be dead.

"I've lost a lot of money on this deal. These horse bandits are more powerful than I thought!" said Mu Sheng as he tied the horse to the hitching post outside the tavern.

"You have to pay more!"

"It's impossible to add extra money. The prices were agreed upon in advance. Besides, it's your own choice!" the tavern owner shook his head and refused.

"At most I'll give you another bowl of wine." After saying that, the tavern owner turned around and went back into the tavern.

After tying up the horse, Mu Sheng walked in. The interior of the tavern was not big, about ten square meters, with four tables and some long wooden benches.

Mu Sheng found a table and sat down, put the steel knife in his hand on the stool, and looked around at the furnishings in the tavern.

"Hey, some more wine for you!"

The tavern owner came out from the inner room, holding two bowls and a small jar of wine. He sat opposite Mu Sheng, opened the jar, and poured two bowls of wine in front of the two men.

Mu Sheng watched the tavern owner pick up the wine in front of him and drink it all, and couldn't help but say:

“Isn’t this my wine?”

"Why don't you drink it quickly?" said the tavern owner, pouring himself another bowl.

The amount of wine in the wine jar, which was not very big to begin with, was visibly decreasing.

"Has anyone ever told you that you are shameless?" Mu Sheng picked up his wine bowl and drank it in one gulp.

Then he poured himself a full bowl and drank it all in one gulp.

He finished a jar of wine in just a few gulps.

The tavern owner picked up the wine bowl but didn't drink it. He watched Mu Sheng drink it all before he took a sip and put it down.

In just a short while, the tavern owner felt the difference in the person in front of him.

His expressions, movements, ways of speaking and doing things were all very different, coupled with the fact that his opponent's martial arts skills had suddenly improved.

The tavern owner was sure that something must have happened to the other man, but he didn't say anything.

Too much curiosity is not a good thing, especially when it comes to other people's secrets.

"I'm planning to deal with all those horses outside. How much can you offer? If it's suitable, I'll sell them to you."

Mu Sheng burped and said to the tavern owner.

"Those horses cost three taels of silver each."

"What the hell, three taels?" Mu Sheng widened his eyes.

The vampire boss didn't think he didn't understand the market, did he? This horse was worth at least 20 or 30 taels of silver, not to mention 50 or 60 taels.

"Don't think it's too little. These horses are of average quality and hard to sell here. We have to take them far away to sell them. It takes a lot of time and effort. Besides, the cost of food and biscuits for the people and horses is also high. We can't make much money."

The tavern owner said as he took the wine bowl in his hand and examined it.

"That's too little, five taels per horse."

"make a deal!"

".How about you be the boss?" Mu Sheng looked speechlessly at the tavern owner who immediately agreed.

After the two sat for a while, the sky gradually darkened, and Mu Sheng went to rest in the mud house behind the tavern.

After dealing with the horses, getting the money, and buying some necessary things, Mu Sheng planned to leave.

The next morning, the sun was just rising from the horizon.

On the roof of the tavern, Mu Sheng sat cross-legged, breathing and practicing martial arts facing the rising sun.

A stream of purple air flowed in and out of his mouth and nose, growing stronger with his breathing.

It was not until the sun rose completely that Mu Sheng inhaled it into his body in one breath.

The internal strength that had not increased for a long time in the world of Smiling Proud Wanderer began to grow again as he inhaled the purple airflow.

As worlds that are of the same origin, the martial arts of the Smiling, Proud Wanderer world are not discounted in the Return of the Condor Heroes world.

It can exert 100% of its power, but Mu Sheng's strength will further weaken after leaving the body.

Only less than 30% of its power is left, and it decays more and more severely as the distance increases. It is completely ineffective when it is more than one meter away from the body.

Obviously, the world of The Condor Heroes has a stronger rejection of external power systems.

"Then won't it be impossible to open the treasure easily when I find it next time?" Mu Sheng felt a little bit sorry. This brought some trouble to his previous accumulation.

And from now on, you can't just enter some closed secret rooms casually.

If the mechanism is buried too deep, or the force required to open it is too great, he may be helpless.

It seems that not only the local bandits are unfriendly, but the whole world is unfriendly!

"Hey, what are you doing climbing so high?"

The tavern owner stood below and looked up at Mu Sheng and shouted.

"Watch the sunrise," said Mu Sheng as he jumped off the roof of the tavern.

He fell straight to the ground without bending his legs or raising a speck of dust.

When the tavern owner saw this, his pupils involuntarily shrank.

“What’s so great about the sunrise? From the moment it rises, it is destined to set.”

"Tsk~, if you say that, people are destined to die from the moment they are born, then why are you still alive?"

Mu Sheng casually patted his trouser legs, which were free of dust, and said, "Where's my horse money? When will I get it?"

"I haven't sold the horse yet, so where will the money come from? I'll be leaving soon and will probably be back in three days. Please keep an eye on the tavern for me."

Then the tavern owner led the horse away without looking back.

Three days later.

When the tavern owner came back exhausted, Mu Sheng was sitting at the table by the window looking out.

The tavern owner sat next to Mu Sheng, picked up the kettle on the table, and started drinking from the spout.

He drank a whole pot of water in one breath.

Bang!

A money bag was thrown on the table!

"Hey, your horse money. It took me a lot of effort to get here."

"That won't stop you from making money," Mu Sheng said without turning his head.

"What are you looking at?" the tavern owner followed Mu Sheng's gaze.

A hunched old lady was standing next to a mound of earth not far from the tavern.

The old lady was wearing tattered clothes and was skinny, looking like she would collapse at any moment.

"Her, why, do you want to help her?"

The tavern owner asked curiously, "You didn't even bother to look at it before."

"I wonder what keeps her going like this? Why is she unwilling to give up even though she knows it's impossible?"

With Mu Sheng's medical skills, he could easily determine that the old lady had already lost all her energy, but she was holding on and not dying.

"In one's life, the hardest things to let go of are either love or hatred."

"This old lady's husband and son were killed by bandits, her daughter-in-law ran away, and her only grandson died of illness."

"I don't know where she found out about my business, and she wants to ask someone to help her get revenge."

"But she has no money. She is too old to sell and no one wants her. No one wants to do business without money."

The tavern owner shook his head and said, "You keep watching. I have to go get some good sleep."

Night, cottage.

A group of bandits were drinking and having fun in a house when suddenly the door was kicked open.

A figure covered in blood rushed into the room.

"No, something happened!"

"Copy guy!"

Without waiting for the bandits to pick up their weapons, the figure rushed into the crowd. A flash of a knife appeared, and the room soon became quiet.
