Chapter 175 Bluffing
Chapter 175 Bluffing
Feng Xiaodao led a group of people into the train from the last carriage.
A few people walked through the carriage with a bang on the wooden floor, and the passengers in the seats cast surprised glances at them from time to time.
Most of the train's interior structure is made of wood, with only a few frames made of steel, a commodity that was produced in very small quantities in this era.
"Hey, hey, hey! What are you doing? Why are you here with a knife? Can you show me your ticket?"
Two train conductors suddenly appeared in front and looked at Feng Xiaodao and his group in surprise.
"Isn't our Demon Slayer Corps a government-recognized organization? Why don't these people seem to know us?" Shinkomo said puzzledly.
Feng Xiaodao was confused for a moment. He should have known that the Demon Slayer Corps was a civilian organization after joining it. The Demon Slayer Corps fights for humanity, not for some bullshit government. So he lied and explained:
"It's hard for ordinary people to believe that the Demon Slayer Corps is hunting demons, so the government will never publicly acknowledge our legitimacy! So even if we are killing demons, we can't just go out with knives as if nothing has happened!"
"Ah? What should we do? Should we explain to them?" Zhen Gu asked worriedly as he looked at the conductor who was getting closer and closer.
"It's okay, just look at me!" Feng Xiaodao said confidently to the team members.
"Hey, hey, you can't hear me, put down the knife and take out your ticket for inspection!"
Seeing that Feng Xiaodao had no intention of stopping, the two conductors had already taken out their batons and shouted nervously.
But obviously it didn't work.
I saw Feng Xiaodao leading a group of people. He had a serious face and walked with resolute steps, showing off his aura a little.
"Baga, get out of my way. The government revolutionary group is on a mission. You have none of your business here. Don't delay us!" Feng Xiaodao cursed unceremoniously.
"What group did you say?"
The conductor was obviously intimidated by Feng Xiaodao's imposing manner, his tall posture, domineering eyes, and his rude tone.
At first glance, he is obviously a member of a very important department.
"Get out! I don't want to say it a second time. If you keep talking, I'll take you back to the group for a thorough interrogation!" Feng Xiaodao not only did not explain, but his tone became even angrier.
“Yes…Yes, as you command, sir!!”
The two train attendants were frightened by Feng Xiaodao's aura. They involuntarily moved aside, saluted, and watched Feng Xiaodao and his group leave.
The two conductors looked at each other. Conductor A asked Conductor B uncertainly: "Did you hear clearly what department he said he was from?"
Conductor B shook his head and said uncertainly, "It seems like it was some kind of mission group. I didn't hear it clearly, but I was frightened by the aura of some officer!"
Why do you care so much? That person is obviously a big boss in a certain department. I have seen many such people. We small people cannot afford to offend him. Let's patrol the next car quickly!"
"I'm just confused. Aren't all officers armed with guns now? Which department still carries knives? Forget it, why should I worry about it? My monthly salary can barely afford a few train tickets."
Conductor A murmured doubtfully, but in the end he didn't care whether he could afford it or not.
After Feng Xiaodao and others passed smoothly, Zhen Gu and his team members also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Lord Xiaodao is so powerful and imposing, just like the head of my former village. But what is a revolutionary group? Is it a powerful department?" Zhen Gu patted his chest.
Feng Xiaodao didn't know that Zhen Gu compared him to the village bully, so in order to avoid trouble, he said:
"It's better to put away all the Sun Blades, otherwise they will scare these ordinary people!"
"Yes, sir!" The team members also agreed with this order. After all, they also felt the strange looks from the passengers.
"Master Xiaodao, where are we going to carry out our mission next? Do we need to search this train carefully for traces of ghosts?" Zhen Gu asked.
"Hmm? What mission?" Feng Xiaodao asked doubtfully, "Our target is not this train. We are a team in the dark, so we have to set out in advance to ambush!"
"Ah?" The little girl showed a surprised and cute expression. "Then why are we getting on the train?"
"We're still a long way from the ambush site. Taking the train can save us a lot of distance. Isn't that uncomfortable? Do you want to run there?" Feng Xiaodao looked at the young team members.
Everyone shook their heads collectively, expressing their unwillingness. Just kidding, if it was a mission requirement then there was nothing we could do, but no one would be a fool if they could run less distance.
As I said before, in this era, people basically travel on foot. Feng Xiaodao and his group have been traveling for several days since they set out from the headquarters. This is the thing that Feng Xiaodao hates the most.
"Okay, let's find a seat first." Feng Xiaodao looked around, "Everyone, spread out and find a seat to rest. Only when you are refreshed can you continue the action."
The team members started to move and looked for seats in the carriage.
"By the way, Zhen Gu, remember to remind everyone when the time comes!" Feng Xiaodao finally instructed Zhen Gu.
After saying that, he found a random seat, put the Sun Blade into space while no one was paying attention, then leaned against the back of the chair and began to doze off.
I have to say, although this steam train is shaky and clanging, the rhythm is really hypnotic.
After the novelty wore off, many team members took a short rest.
……
"Master Xiaodao, it's time!" Zhen Gu called softly to Feng Xiaodao who was sitting on his seat.
The moment Zhen Gu approached Feng Xiaodao, Feng Xiaodao opened his eyes. After all, one should still be alert.
"Wake up everyone and get ready to get off the bus!" Feng Xiaodao whispered to Zhen Gu.
Soon everyone packed up and brought their weapons to gather in front of Feng Xiaodao.
"How long is it until the next XX station?" Feng Xiaodao asked.
"There are about ten minutes left, I heard the conductor remind me!" said a team member.
Feng Xiaodao estimated the time and it was about the same as expected, so he ordered: "Okay, just get off before the station!!"
"Master Xiaodao, how do we get off the train? Without waiting for the train to stop?" asked a team member.
"Go down the same way you came up. Is there any need to ask? Have you become stupid after staying in the action team for so long?" After saying this, he took the lead and set off.
A group of people followed Feng Xiaodao and hurriedly walked to the rear of the carriage.
"Hey, hey, hey! Look, that big guy is coming again." Conductor A looked at Feng Xiaodao who was rushing over and nervously reminded his companion.
"Don't be nervous, don't talk, just make way and salute!" Conductor B said calmly, he seemed to be very experienced.
Then Feng Xiaodao saw the two train conductors standing nervously on both sides of the aisle waiting for Feng Xiaodao to pass.
Feng Xiaodao didn't curse this time. He just nodded at the two of them expressionlessly, then left arrogantly.
Conductor B: "You see, you won't get scolded this way! I always say that these big guys care about face the most. As long as it doesn't get in the way, they won't bother with little people like us."
Conductor A: "Brother, you are really experienced. Tell me more about it when we change shifts. I'll buy you a drink!"
Conductor B: "Get on the track, bro!!"
