Chapter 238: Chapter 196: Spatial Shuttle, Yuzhi Island_3
A young teenager behind Chen Qing raised his weapon at Chen Qing and cursed loudly.
However, she was immediately dragged away by her family, still cursing as they pulled her along.
"Have you lost your mind, can’t you see your Uncle Gou Dan’s pitchfork didn’t even hit her!"
The villagers were a chaotic mix of occupations.
But generally, they had formed an encirclement, trapping Chen Qing inside the Bounty Guild.
Leaving Granny Yuhua to face Chen Qing alone, still not fully awake.
Soon, Granny Yuhua was roused by the ruckus and opened her bleary eyes.
"What are you all doing?"
After seeing the Bounty Guild in disarray, Granny Yuhua’s eyes widened in disbelief and she cursed!
"Have you all gone mad, turning my house into this mess!?"
"But normally, it’s us who do the cleaning, too."
A villager muttered softly.
Indeed, how could Granny Yuhua have time to clean when she was either drinking heavily or on her way to drink heavily every day?
Even if they made the Bounty Guild a mess, in the end, it was still them who cleaned up.
Granny Yuhua couldn’t do a thing.
"They took me for a pirate."
Chen Qing pulled up a chair and sat down, saying helplessly.
"You?"
Granny Yuhua looked suspiciously at Chen Qing, then, after fumbling through the toppled bottles for her reading glasses and putting them on, she finally saw the person clearly.
"Aren’t you that recent, that—Chen Qing?"
As an employee of the island’s Bounty Guild with the broadest knowledge and quickest information, Yuhua knew about Chen Qing.
"Hmm."
Chen Qing nodded.
"Disperse, disperse, she’s not a pirate."
Yuhua looked disdainfully at the panicking villagers outside the door, they hadn’t even clarified the situation.
She naturally saw Chen Qing’s ship docked at the port. Could a pirate capable of owning such a large ship not fly a pirate flag?
Yuzhi Village was too poor, and she knew that all too well.
They couldn’t possibly attract the attention of the Great Pirate.
"Chen Qing? Who’s that?"
"I think Granny Yuhua mentioned her before."
"Isn’t she some sort of Mechanic?"
"Mechanic? Do you think she could fix a fridge?"
Driven away uncaringly by Granny Yuhua, the villagers weren’t angry but quietly started discussing among themselves.
Yuhua had lived on this island for many years, and they all knew her temperament.
Her temper might have been a bit rough, but when they encountered pirates they couldn’t handle, Yuhua was always willing to stand up and help.
"The drink menu is on the wall, wanted posters on that bookshelf over there, the Deep Blue newspapers on the cart at the door, help yourself."
Yuhua glanced at Chen Qing, showing no intention of playing host, and continued to snore away in her recliner.
In such a rundown village, you couldn’t expect the Bounty Guild staff to be good-tempered.
More accurately, you couldn’t expect any Bounty Guild employee to be good-tempered.
Chen Qing grabbed a few bottles of alcohol from the counter and tried mixing a drink.
She had intended to get off the ship to resupply and take in the scenery of Yuzhi Island, not expecting the villagers to react so intensely.
A strong mixed aroma of alcohol wafted through the room, with a faint hint of the scent of blood.
Chen Qing had been injured in Clockwork Bay, but the injuries were not severe, just some flesh wounds.
The burning liquor spread spicy flavors in her mouth as Chen Qing flipped through the wanted booklet.
The bounties on the few robbers on the ship were quite high.
Together, they were worth almost twenty thousand goldfish.
Her bounty was not small either, one hundred thousand.
Most of it came from the Beast Clan, and the bounty set by the Bounty Guild was not high, only eight thousand.
It quite matched Chen Qing’s abilities.
"Sister."
Chen Qing was drinking when she felt a tug at the hem of her clothes.
She looked down to see a child looking timidly up at her.
"Sister, the aunties say you’re a Mechanic, can you help me fix this?"
The child held an old wind-up mouse, clearly cherished by its owner but worn out by time.
"It won’t move anymore."
"I can."
Chen Qing took the toy and, with her carried tools, repaired the small toy in just a few seconds.
"Thank you, sister! This is for you!"
A necklace made from a Jade Branch Tree twig was stuffed into Chen Qing’s hands by the child.
"Sister, can you also fix ours?"
At the doorway and windowsill, a bunch of fuzzy little heads popped up, looking at Chen Qing expectantly.
"..."
Thus, when the Demon Dragon Pirate Group and a host of temporary alliance allies arrived at Yuzhi Island, they saw such a scene.
Chen Qing sat under the Jade Branch Tree, diligently repairing the broken toys of Yuzhi Village’s children.
