Hearing this, Old Wei and Cao Meng also looked at each other.
"Okay! Now that you've seen it, we won't hide it anymore!"
Only then did Old Wei regain his naive expression and spoke to Ye Liuyun seriously.
When the villagers saw that Ye Liuyun had seen through it so easily, they all looked disappointed and frustrated.
Lao Wei explained to Ye Liuyun: "The reason why some small forces here are desperately recruiting people to expand is because some big forces give us some tasks every few months, and we must send people to do them.
This time the mission is for ten of us to go on an expedition to Huanglonggang.
But it is too dangerous there, and people who go in will most likely not be able to get out.
Especially since we are of a lower level, we will be used as cannon fodder for others.
So we thought, if you can take us out of this buffer zone, maybe we won’t have to go out on our own! Or take us on an adventure, and our chances of survival will be much greater!”
"Is that the reason?"
Ye Liuyun asked Old Wei and looked at the other mercenaries.
This time they all nodded in confirmation.
"I can help you! But you lied to me once, and I can't believe you again! Unless..." Ye Liuyun paused at this point.
"We are not sincerely lying to you, we are just concealing some information.
Let's do this, you can make conditions! As long as we can agree, we will not refuse! Even if it means my life, I won't even frown!"
Old Wei also said.
"Unless you let me search the soul to confirm the authenticity!"
Ye Liuyun continued.
"ah?"
"How can that be done!"
Old Wei was stunned when he heard this, but others objected.
"how?
You are not even afraid of death, why are you afraid of searching for souls?"
Ye Liuyun stared at Old Wei and asked.
"How can it be the same? After someone searches for your soul, you become an idiot!"
someone shouted.
Lao Wei waved his hand to silence the objections of others.
He said to Ye Liuyun: "After you are asked to search for souls, will you sincerely lead them?
If you agree to sign a soul contract, I will risk my life!"
Ye Liuyun smiled and said: "You are begging me now, not me begging you.
You are not qualified to negotiate terms with me!"
When Old Wei heard this, he also started thinking.
"Old Wei, no, it's too risky!"
Cao Meng advised from the side.
"Yes! If it doesn't work, forget it. The worst we can do is send someone else!"
Some people said excitedly.
However, after thinking about it for a while, Old Wei agreed to Ye Liuyun.
"Okay, I promise you! I hope you can take them out after confirming the information!"
"Old Wei!"
These mercenaries also became excited.
"If you want to search, search mine!"
At this time, the teenage boy said to Ye Liuyun.
"Tuyazi, why are you causing trouble here?"
Old Wei scolded him.
"I am the lowest and most useless! If you have to sacrifice, I should be the one to do it! If he doesn't care about us after searching for his soul, we still have to count on you!"
The boy named Tuyazi insisted.
"Search me!"
Cao Meng also suddenly stood up and said: "He is only a half-year-old child and doesn't understand anything. Searching for him will be of no use!"
"Search me! I know everything too!"
"Search me!"
"Search me!"
These people were very united, and even a few women stepped forward without hesitation.
"Search me!"
At this time, when the little girl saw everyone shouting like this, she also shouted, not knowing what searching for souls meant.
Ye Liuyun shook his head and insisted: "I just want to search for Lao Wei.
Others are useless.
I can guarantee that after searching the soul and confirming the information, I will stay and help you."
Old Wei also patted Cao Meng on the shoulder, looked at him firmly, and then said to everyone: "Stop arguing! You all will live well in the future!"
"Sooner or later we will die. What's the point of living like this?"
a man shouted excitedly.
"That's right! Old Wei, please take us to the south, maybe we can live a better life!"
Others also followed suit.
But Old Wei shouted: "Don't talk nonsense! We people, without strength or background, can't survive in this familiar place, let alone another place! Only by surviving can we see hope."
After saying that, he stood firmly in front of Ye Liuyun and did not say anything more to ask Ye Liuyun to abide by the agreement.
Ye Liuyun is much stronger than them. He can kill them all by himself. Even if he regrets when the time comes, there is nothing they can do.
He is risking his life.
Without taking a gamble, he really had no other choice.
Instead of watching the people around him being taken away, it would be better for him to leave first.
Some women couldn't bear to see it, so they turned their heads and cried secretly.
When Ye Liuyun saw this, he no longer delayed and directly released one of his souls and rushed into Old Wei's sea of ​​consciousness.
What Lao Wei said was indeed true, and he treated these mercenaries as family members.
However, Lao Wei turned out to be not their leader.
The original group leader had died during the previous expeditions.
Most of these people are martial arts cultivators from the mortal world. Only a few, such as Old Wei, are from the southern region and have been hanging around in this area.
That little girl was also picked up by the previous team leader during a mission.
But she is young and doesn't know her full name. She only knows that her name is Lan'er.
But they have always taken care of me.
Tuyazi is the son of the old regiment leader, his real name is Li Pingchuan.
Their Huwei mercenary group originally had more than seventy people, but after the death of the original group leader and some strong men, they could no longer compete with other forces, and their number became smaller and smaller.
The next fate is either to die on the way to complete the mission, or to join other forces and serve as cannon fodder for others, but the results are all doomed.
Especially Tu Yazi and Lan'er, they were given to other forces for free and no one wanted them.
If you can't fight, you still have to eat and consume resources, which is a burden to any force.
Lao Wei and Cao Meng also secretly observed Ye Liuyun for a few days and felt that he was a good character and strong, so they made the decision to give up the position of group leader.
But they didn't have any resources to make gifts. When they saw two women around Ye Liuyun, they wanted to take advantage of them.
There are also two women who are willing to make sacrifices for everyone's survival in exchange for Ye Liuyun's help.
Ye Liuyun then searched for a lot of information about various local forces before taking back his soul.
Lao Wei immediately discovered that he was fine and didn't even have a headache. He felt a little unbelievable and froze there.
Everyone looked at Old Wei silently, thinking that he had become a complete fool.
"If you don't speak up, they'll think you're an idiot!"
Ye Liuyun also reminded Lao Wei with a smile.
"I...I'm fine!"
Old Wei also reacted and said in surprise.
"What?"
"Is everything okay?
Very good!"
Some people still had tears in their eyes, and their surprise and joy were beyond words when they saw Old Wei saying it was okay.
