Chapter 316: A Delaying Tactic

Xu Yu followed Li Cheng in, and did not relax his vigilance, but stood behind Li Cheng one step behind, staring at the black-robed merchant defensively, in case he could make the first move if he made any move.

"Li Gongzi, please sit" The black-robed merchant had already stood up when he saw Li Cheng and the others walking in, bowed slightly, and motioned for him to sit on the chair opposite him, and then exited.

"Miss Xu, please sit down, don't be restrained. ”

Li Cheng glanced at him indifferently, his face did not show any emotion, and he did not say a word, he did take Xu Yu to sit down according to his wishes, but it was not the position indicated by the black-robed merchant.

Seeing Li Cheng's arrogant and indifferent attitude, the black-robed merchant did not give him any face at all, the smirk that rose at the corner of his mouth suddenly froze, and a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes.

Heh, let's see how long he can be proud!

Xu Yu and Li Cheng naturally did not miss the emotions that flashed in his eyes, but they still did not move, waiting for him to explain his intentions, so as not to panic his position.

The black-robed merchant sat down again, and then naturally picked up the teacup on the table and brought a new cup of tea for the two of them.

The clear tea slowly flowed out along the spout of the white jade pot and landed in the moist teacup, which was also made of white jade, making a pleasant sound, making the already serious atmosphere in the room at this time even more eerie, as if a battle would break out in the next moment.

"Young Master Li, Miss Xu, please drink tea. He brought them two cups of steaming tea, and said politely.

The two of them still didn't answer, and they didn't make any movements, just watched his movements and pretend gestures with their eyes. Who knows if he has put any poison or Gu in this tea, and they can naturally not touch the things that this person has touched, so as not to fall for his tricks for a while.

The black-robed merchant smiled absently, and took the lead in taking a sip of his teacup, indicating that there was no problem with the tea.

Seeing that he was just doing a one-man show for a while, he no longer maintained his superficial demeanor, and pondered for a moment to directly explain his intentions.

"Li Gongzi, Miss Xu, since you have no intention of maintaining these false manners on the surface, then I will not be cowardly, and directly explain the purpose of my visit this time. Haven't you been tracking down my identity?

If you ask me directly, I will tell you at once, why do you want to go around in circles to prevent me from discovering it, and at the same time worrying that your enemies will accidentally find out, and join forces with me to deal with you?"

The black-robed merchant turned the ring on his hand, curled the corners of his mouth, and continued:

"Even if I don't say it, I believe that with Li Gongzi's intelligence, I have guessed a few points, that's right, I am from the demon clan, and I have no malice in coming this time, I just want to make a deal with Li Gongzi. I'm a demon, and the benefits you can get from it won't disappoint you. ”

Xu Yu was shocked when he heard this, if he was really from the demon clan, then it would be difficult to handle the matter. But what kind of deal did the demons make to them? Could it be that they have some kind of conspiracy?

"Transaction?no malice?" Li Cheng smiled sarcastically when he heard this, "You told us so easily that your identity has been hidden for so long, will you still let us leave safely?"

I'm afraid we won't be able to get out of this door safely. With that, he threw the teacup on the table to the roof with a wave of his hand, and in an instant it burst out of the roof, causing several muffled snorts.

"Hahaha, Li Gongzi really lives up to his reputation, even the existence of my subordinates who are good at concealment can be perceived, what a young talent!!" The black-robed merchant did not have anger or embarrassment on his face, but clapped his hands a few times and praised.

Li Cheng stared at his eyes heavily, and did not answer, but Xu Yu on the side first couldn't help but burst into a temper.

"Okay, you, what is so nice to say, there is no malice, and you actually set up an ambush to prepare to attack us! You demon people are so different? I don't think there is any need to do this deal, lest you take advantage of our inattention to stab us in the back!"

She scolded like this on her face, but she was shocked in her heart, the existence of that person just now didn't even notice a little demonic energy, the strength of his subordinates was so high, then the strength of this black-robed merchant was probably even more unfathomable!

"Xu Yu. Li Cheng said in a deep voice, and only one moment choked Xu Yu's action of about to lift the table.

"He ......" Xu Yu saw him talking to her like this, and suddenly felt unwilling, looking at Li Cheng's face and ready to speak.

Before she could finish speaking, Li Cheng had already flown a slightly calming look at her, but no, Xu Yu had to endure the uneasiness in her heart and sit down again.

The black-robed merchant grinned, "Little girl, don't be so impatient, be a little patient, otherwise you will have to suffer a lot." ”

Hearing this, Xu Yu showed a resentful expression on his face, but he couldn't attack, so he had to sit back with a straight face.

"To tell you the truth, I have surrounded this restaurant with demonic qi in advance today, this kind of demonic qi is not detectable by my race, and you have already been hit by my demonic qi the moment you stepped in.

If you don't make this deal with me, you will be like the ignorant people I worked with in the past, and the demonic energy will enter your body, eroding your internal organs little by little, and absorbing your spiritual power. ”

In the end, the haze in the eyes of the black-robed businessman had been undisguised in front of their eyes, this deal, they had to do it, and they had to do it if they didn't do it.

I hope they are better to be more interesting, otherwise if the demonic qi barrier that consumes eighty percent of their magic power is in vain, it will really outweigh the losses.

Li Cheng's eyes flickered, and he frowned, and sure enough, he felt that there was an external force swimming in his body, and he had already believed it for seven or eight points at the moment. He has always been able to bend and stretch, at this time he lowered his head and thought for a moment, and when he raised his eyes after a while, there was no frost in his eyes, but a smile.

In the eyes of the black-robed merchant, Li Cheng was interested, he smiled with satisfaction, did not take the initiative to explain the content of the transaction, and put up a score, obviously dissatisfied with the anger he had just received.

Li Cheng also understood, stretched out his hand and poured a cup of tea for the black-robed man who was sitting upright, and said with a smile:

"Since the predecessor said so, of course we can't say it if we refuse, of course we do so many beneficial things, and we are not such ignorant people, but we don't know what the transaction is that the predecessor said?"

Xu Yu looked at Li Cheng in surprise, and after a little thought, he realized that it was just a plan to delay the army.

"Simple, I want you to help me get the Spirit Stone. The black-robed merchant was categorical, his eyes revealing great ambition and imperative self-confidence.

Li Cheng and Xu Yu glanced at each other, and they also saw the calculation in each other's eyes, and immediately made plans.

"It's easy to say, I don't know where the Zhenling Stone is, and you still want to get it?!" Xu Yu sneered disdainfully on the side, looking delicate, making a spoiled princess look, making people involuntarily want to laugh at her short-sightedness.

"Yes, the seniors still tell us where the specific location is, so that we have reason to believe the words of the seniors. Li Cheng also said on the side.

The black-robed merchant smiled and said, "Hmph, if I'm not sure of the specific location, I'll invite you, the world-moving Li Gongzi, to give me a hand?"

"Then you tell us first, and then we promise you, otherwise who knows if you are talking big to coax us. ”

Just wanted to answer, the black-robed merchant suddenly looked stiff, and then suddenly came to his senses, and his face was ruthless, "Heh, I really underestimated you, I was almost deceived by your little girl, you think I don't know, you just want to trick me!"

Xu Yu didn't move on his face, biting his lip, but he was a little annoyed in his heart, this person's reaction was so fast, she almost came out, but she didn't expect to be recognized by him.

"You can choose not to believe us, but I would say that human beings are good creatures, we are all on the same page as the good, and if there are enough good things, human beings can do many, many things. And we, that is, human beings, everything serves our own interests. ”

Li Cheng knocked lightly on the table, his pupils flickered uncertainly, his brain began to run rapidly, and thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind in a blink of an eye.

In the end, he decided to show a look of "everything is looking at interests", as if telling a fact, his tone was calm, his eyes looked at the black-robed merchant seriously, and he said it clearly.

The black-robed merchant had a calm aura around him, showing an aura that Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and did not change color, it seemed that he was definitely a person who had experienced strong winds and waves, and he did not have any abnormal actions because of Li Cheng's speech, and he did not reveal what he was thinking at all.

The wide black robe covered his face, allowing him to hide in deep darkness, and outsiders could not see his appearance clearly, which made people subconsciously feel frightened.

This is not a fear of the dark, but a fear of the unknown, and it seems that the black-robed merchant should be a master who is well-versed in the worldly aspects of human affairs.

If an ordinary person faced him now, most of them would have been scared and sweaty, completely lost their coolness, and were led by his nose and at his mercy.

After rubbing his two fingers lightly, after thinking for a moment, smoothing out a wrinkle in his clothes, and gently patting the dust, the black-robed merchant tried to create a breezy momentum.

After confirming that he had nothing to do, he said in a hoarse and jerky voice, but with a magnetism, highlighting a mysterious sense of vicissitudes:

"I think if we want to cooperate, we have to build a foundation of mutual trust, and that foundation is trust.

And the premise of mutual trust is that you tell me who you really are and where you come from, and I think I need to know that as an important member of the cooperation between the two sides.

If you don't even want to tell me that, I don't think we need to talk any further.

Because you don't bring enough sincerity, I don't need to be sincere to you.

Trust in cooperation is always on both sides, and now that I'm in charge, I hope you understand that. ”

Li Cheng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, although this black-robed merchant was very domineering and wanted to lead them by the nose, it was not an important matter.

Regardless of whether he is domineering or not, as long as he is willing to speak, because as long as he is willing to speak, there is definitely a corresponding desire in his heart.

And as long as there is desire, no matter how firm the person is, there will be flaws, and those who have flaws can manipulate, this is an eternal truth, and almost no intelligent life can escape this law!

Even if they escape from this law, they are not really escaping from this law, it's just that they no longer have the corresponding desires in their hearts!

Then, Li Cheng began to think about it, and then thought that this black-robed businessman looked difficult to deal with, but in fact, as long as he used his words well and continued according to his train of thought, he would trust himself little by little, and feel that he was on the same line as him.

You can be regarded as an excellent partner, and you can also be regarded as a key object of long-term cooperation, then you must be able to set out the specific address of that place!

So, Li Cheng brewed a little in his heart, and a calm aura spread, and he was silent for a whole few seconds like a black-robed merchant, putting on a posture that he had already thought out and gently knocking on the table.

Fang Cai took over the conversation without hurry, and continued to say in a tone that was not wavering:

"We are all disciples of the Great Elder of the Imperial King Sect, presumably you should have heard of the fame of our Imperial King Sect, I think this should be enough to be used as a sufficient amount of bargaining chips, so that the two of us are on an equal scale, and the basic of mutual trust and cooperation must already be there. ”
