Chapter 603: The Curse of Tulips

Lu Xinyao nodded slightly: "Don't worry, there will definitely be news before we arrive at our destination." ”

Just like Lu Xinyao said, I received the news soon after the plane landed, but the news was not satisfactory. The intelligence department only got rumors that the Scarlet Tulip family was indeed cursed, but they couldn't find out the specific content of the curse.

This news, for me, is equal to nothing.

I pondered for a long time before I said, "Lu Xinyao, you can help me find it again, and see if anyone can contact the people of the Tulip Family head-on, even if it is their opponent." ”

"I'll try again!" Lu Xinyao said, "I'll take you to find weapons first." ”

Lu Xinyao has the same channels in Britain to get weapons, I thought she would bring weapons directly to us, but I didn't expect her to take me to the warehouse for underground trading.

A guy named Old Jack put a large number of weapons in front of us: "Friend, as long as you can afford the price, I can even drive you a tank." ”

I plucked a Magnum from the wall and swung it back and forth twice: "Stuff good." Do you have cold weapons? I want a long knife, preferably a two-handed long knife. ”

I roughly drew a contemptuous look on the paper: "Do you have such a knife? I want two! The steel mouth must be good, and the blade must have strong bearing capacity." ”

After Lu Xinyao translated my words, Old Jack leaned on the chair and lifted Erlang's legs and said: "Friend, what era is this, are you a knight in the Middle Ages? Or are you a hero of martial arts movies, can you fly in the sky? Those deceptive things are useless in front of the musket." Your heroes can't even stop the most primitive muskets, so you don't have to do any Chinese mystery in front of me. ”

The people around Old Jack suddenly burst into laughter, my eyes were cold, I looked at Old Jack and suddenly glared at him, and the blood light of "Devil's Open Eyes" burst out from my eyes, and Old Jack, who was still laughing just now, suddenly turned white, knelt on the ground with his hands on his chest, and fell down in cold sweat.

The bodyguard standing beside him didn't have time to move, Ren Tianqing and Li Xiaomei grabbed the bullets on the table at the same time, and they didn't even use their guns to shoot a few meters away with hidden weapons.

The sound of a dozen bullets whistling in the air was not inferior to the rain of bullets, but in the blink of an eye, five or six bodyguards were knocked to the ground at the same time. In an instant, dozens of guns stretched out around the underground warehouse, surrounding several of us.

I slowly threw the money on the table: "No need to be nervous. You insulted Huaxia martial arts, I have to teach you a little lesson. Money, here. goods, I'll take it. I'll take out an extra 10% of it, which is a little bit of medical expenses. You also remember to me that the next time you dare to make a big statement, it will not be as simple as it is now. ”

After I finished speaking, the blood in my eyes was dispersed, and Old Jack, who knelt on the ground, also gasped and sat on the ground: "You...... Are you the devil?"

"Stop talking nonsense and keep trading!" I said coldly: "I'll write you a list of goods......"

When Old Jack slowly got up from the ground, someone came out of the stairs on the second floor and applauded, "Wonderful, very wonderful." Are you a warrior in Huaxia, or a warlock?"

When I turned to look at the other man, I saw a sturdy old man in a red checkered turban, wearing a suit and holding a cigar coming down the stairs. The other party's appearance is at least eight points similar to the old Jack in front of me, but he is a little more fierce than him.

He's the real Old Jack.

I turned my back and looked at each other with my hands behind my back and said, "I'm a samurai and a warlock. It's up to you how you divide it?"

Old Jack's eyes suddenly lit up: "Excuse me, what does this gentleman want to do when he comes to Britain?"

Old Jack was afraid that I would misunderstand, so he immediately explained: "I'm not inquiring about your privacy, I'm trying to say that if you have time, I want to hire you to do something for me." ”

I shook my head and said, "I don't have time." ”

Old Jack couldn't help frowning, but he still didn't give up and asked, "What about three months from now? At that time, do you have time? This matter is very important to me......

I looked at Old Jack and said, "I don't know what you want to do. However, I can tell you that we don't always go abroad. This time, I came and left. So, I can't help you. ”

Old Jack nodded and said, "Okay then!

I just chose a Magnum and a ***, and I don't get used to the other guns. What I didn't expect was that Ye Xun, who didn't find the crossbow arrow, would pick a ***.

Ren Tianqing and Lu Xinyao are simply fully armed, except for a set of camouflage uniforms, they are already the same as special forces.

Li Xiaomei didn't choose a weapon, but just picked more than a dozen daggers to hide on her body, I obviously saw her put away the daggers one by one, but I didn't see where she hid the things.

Lu Xinyao waited for us to get the equipment, paid the bill in cash, and agreed on the place to deliver the long knife, and then took us out of the warehouse below and found a place to stay.

No, I don't want to act immediately, but, I'm also waiting for information from Lu Xinyao's side.

There was no one to recommend us, and we rushed to find the results of the Tulip family, which not only could not solve any problems, but also was easy to fight.

I appeared to be extremely calm on the surface, but I was so anxious that I couldn't even think about the doubts in my notes. I can't do anything but sit in the living room and smoke cigarettes.

What I didn't expect was that I didn't wait for the news from Lu Xinyao, but saw the old Jack who delivered the goods to the door.

The transaction of the two knives does not need a giant like Old Jack to come to the door in person, he must have other plans to come over, before I could speak, Old Jack spoke first: "Mr. Wang Huan, we meet again." ”

I looked at Old Jack and my eyes shrank suddenly.

Old Jack waved his hand and said, "Mr. Wang Huan, don't misunderstand. I have not inquired about the purpose of your visit. I just inquired about Mr. Wang Huan's identity, but I really didn't expect Mr. Wang Huan to be the top person in the hands of Tanshen. ”

Old Jack continued: "Mr. Wang Huan, you can rest assured. My intelligence channels are so secret that no one will know that you have arrived in Britain. ”

I squinted at each other and said, "What exactly do you want?"

"Or hire a gentleman to do something for me. Old Jack said, "I've always wanted to work with the Detective Hand. Unfortunately, the Detective Hand never cooperates with foreigners. I don't think Mr. Wang Huan will abide by this rule, right?"

There was a rule under the establishment of the Detective Hand, that is, not to cooperate with foreigners. They will not touch the mythical forbidden areas of foreign countries, and they will not allow anyone to go deep into the forbidden places of the country.

After the god probe established this rule with blood, it has been continued for nearly a hundred years, and no one can break it.

Old Jack could never have sought the cooperation of the Detective Hand.

I asked lightly, "The adventurer's union in Britain is famous all over the world, why don't you hire adventurers?"

Old Jack shook his head and said, "The first is the issue of credibility. Credit between risk-takers is hard to guarantee. Mr. Wang has probably heard of this, right?"

Before I nodded, Old Jack had already continued: "The second is the technical problem, the adventurer does not have the secret technique of exploring the gods, or the supernatural powers. They would rather believe in technology than in ancient mysteries. There are some things that can't be solved with technology, am I right?"

Lu Xinyao also told me about this. Adventurers have excellent individual qualities and are equipped with first-class equipment, but most of them do not believe in ancient secret arts, and are more adept at using technology.

From this point alone, they had a major disagreement with the Explorer, which was another reason why the Explorer had been reluctant to change the rules and cooperate with the adventurers.

Old Jack said again: "As for the third reason. It's that adventurers never make sacrifices. As long as there is interest, they don't care if they break the exclusion zone. Abandoning missions because of escape, or even blowing up secret realms, is commonplace for adventurers. I don't want that to happen. ”

Old Jack looked at me and said, "I need to be a brave man with oriental qualities, not an adventurer." Do you understand what I mean?"

I can probably understand what Old Jack means.

The oriental literacy he mentioned is actually the will to fight, and it is not that Asian countries have no soldiers surrendering, but compared with Europe, they are very different.

In Europe, since the age of knights, there has been a custom of ransom captives. Therefore, when European knights have the opportunity to surrender, they will not choose to fight to the end, the big deal is to wait for the ransom to be paid after surrendering. This mindset continued into World War II.

During World War II, scenes of martyrdom were constantly staged on the battlefield in China, while the whole army was martyred in order to defend the country, but the scene of the surrender of the whole army continued to appear on the European battlefield.

It's no surprise that adventurers would choose to retreat in time.

Old Jack's reasoning can convince me, but it doesn't mean that I want to cooperate with him.

I was thinking about how to reject the other party, when old Jack suddenly said, "I know that money may not be able to impress Mr. Wang. If I can provide you with all the convenience for this operation. Would you like to accept my employment? ”

My eyes lit up suddenly, and I turned my head to look at Lu Xinyao, who whispered in my ear: "Old Jack's family is very strong, if he is willing to help with all his might, we will get twice the result with half the effort." ”

When Lu Xinyao spoke, he touched me behind my back. What she meant: Let me promise Old Jack.

I muttered, "I have to say, your conditions can impress me. But I also have to tell you bluntly. After this operation, I will return to China and break into a heaven-level forbidden area. Whether you can come back alive or not, I can't say for sure, are you willing to pay such a big price for a person whose life and death are uncertain?"
