Chapter 562: Robbing the Lightning Fruit
Xu Yanchi heard that Bai Mei would have to return the money to buy the land in the future, so she couldn't help but pounce on Bai Mei's body and said, "Master, you don't want that money."
"Why not?" Bai Mei's heart is very unhappy, his money is all fought back with his life, Xu Yanchi is certainly delicate and cute, but there are countless such women in the secluded world, just in Bai Mei's storage space, there are several women who are more beautiful than Xu Yanchi waiting for Bai Mei's favor.
"It's still very easy for the master to use the money." Xu Yanchi said in a low voice: "I have a way for you to get a lot of money." ”
"What's the solution?" Bai Mei knew that Xu Yanchi had a lot of secrets of the Xu family.
"I know that the Xu family has a kind of 'lightning protection fruit', this kind of fruit blooms every 100 years and bears fruit in 100 years, that is, it takes 200 years, and many people can't see the birth of this fruit. If it is an elf who is about to turn into a human form and eats the lightning protection fruit, it will avoid the thunder tribulation of the Nine Heavens Xuan Thunder, therefore, all the elf clan will come to snatch this fruit, but the Xu family will take the lightning protection fruit to death, I heard that before, the Xu family and the elf clan often had bloody fights for the lightning protection fruit, and later, everyone was tired of fighting, so they stopped, but the Xu family and the elf clan also secretly reached some kind of agreement, every year, will sell a lot of lightning protection fruit to the elf family. ”
When Bai Mei heard about this, he was very surprised, it seemed that the monks in the dark world were not as monolithic as they looked. It turns out that there is an unspeakable secret deal between the monks and the elves.
When the Xu family does this, they must hide it from other monks, so as not to be accused by Qianfu of having secret dealings with the elf clan. However, since people of Xu Yanchi's level know all about it, maybe other monks may be able to guess the secret.
After thinking of this, Bai Mei smiled at Xu Yanchi and said, "I don't believe that the Xu family is colluding with the elf clan. As soon as he changed his hand, Bai Mei took out a storage space and handed it to Xu Yanchi, and said: "Here are two hundred tons of gold, you give it to Xu Tu and let him sell you a piece of land in the city, you have to remember that it is sold to you, not leased, if it is leased, it is pointless to spend this money." ”
"Okay, sir, I'll give you back this money in the future."
Nodding, Bai Mei said: "Yes, I just like to support myself, and anyone who wants to get something for nothing is a lazy worm." ”
Xu Yanchi left with her sister Xu Yanzi, and the other women were in the storage space.
Bai Mei summoned a warrior who knew how to send a telegram, and he set up a telegraph in this temporary home and sent a telegram to Zhen Fei, explaining everything he had seen in Mucheng, focusing on the lightning protection fruit. Bai Mei asked, "General, are we going to rob that rare fruit?" ”
Although he became a brigade commander and was still Zhen Fei's close guard, the idea of a robber was still deeply rooted in Bai Mei's bones, and if he saw that he didn't take the treasure, he would hurt people.
Zhen Fei immediately gave instructions: "You and Berao are only inquiring in Mucheng, all actions need to be instructed, without my permission, any private action is a violation of military regulations, and will be severely punished." ”
This sentence made Bai Mei very disapproving, but his little life was in Zhen Fei's hands, and he didn't dare to violate Zhen Fei's order.
The shrike who had gone out for a walk with the woman did not return until the afternoon. took out a large pile of fruit and put it on the table, and said, "Hey, Baimei, hurry up and eat, this is Mucheng's fragrant fruit, it's delicious, I picked a lot, take it back to the general to taste." ”
mentioned Zhen Fei, his white eyebrows and eyes rolled, and he suddenly had an idea in his heart. With a wave of his hand, he asked all the women to avoid it, and then said to the shrike whisper: "Do you know that there is another magical fruit in the netherworld?" ”
"There won't be another kind of fragrant fruit, right?" Shrike picked up the fragrant fruit and bit it open, and the juice dripping from the corner of his mouth stained his clothes, but as soon as his mind moved, the juice on his clothes immediately disappeared, this is the magic of the magic of the magic costume, it is never dirty. The dirty juice vaporized the clothes of the ritual vessel in the space.
Bai Mei's eating appearance is a lot more gentle, and he said in a secret language: "There is a magical fruit called lightning protection fruit in the Xu family, which is said to be a thing dedicated to avoiding thunder tribulation by the elf clan. ”
"Oh? And something like this? "The shrike was very impressed.
Seeing that Berao had concentrated his attention, Bai Mei's heart was very proud, and said: "Yes, there are no wonders in the world, this kind of fruit is really exciting, I guess that if those elves in hell heard that there was such a thing, they would definitely send troops to rob it." ”
Although he was greedy, he was also a warrior with a lot of experience, and said, "Do you mean that we will snatch this fruit?" ”
Bai Mei had already received clear instructions from Zhen Fei, he didn't dare to rob at all, and now he put his hope on the shrike who had not contacted Zhen Fei. When Beroe asked for his idea, Bai Mei understood the delicate relationship involved, and immediately avoided answering yes or no, and remained silent.
The shrike man became an old man, and after seeing Bai Mei reveal the news, he did not reply, and immediately realized that there were other secrets in it. Berao snorted coldly and said, "Old man with white eyebrows, you tell me about this matter from beginning to end, don't make up these vain things with me." ”
I really couldn't hide it anymore, so Bai Mei sighed heavily and said: "I won't tell you, I reported this matter to the general, thinking that the general could support me in snatching the lightning avoidance fruit, but the general didn't agree with my action, anyway, you and I are both brigade commanders of the same level, you just pretend not to know." ”
Shrike's brain was racing: "Although the lightning fruit is very exciting, but this is a hedgehog thing, can he eat it?" If you don't do it well, you will hurt yourself, Bai Mei has already confessed that she will not participate in this matter, even if she obtains the lightning protection fruit, I can't swallow it alone. ”
There is finally a disagreement between two brothers who have been fighting side by side for many years.
Shrike is also a robber, and there is still greed.
After thinking about it carefully, he said, "You have to promise me that you can't take advantage of the fire to rob." ”
It turned out that what Berau was most afraid of was that Bai Mei would stab him in the back. The open knife is easy to dodge, and the dark arrow is difficult to defend.
"You can rest assured of this, our brothers have worked together for many years, I am definitely not that kind of villain, and I will secretly support your actions, and I will not let the general find out." Bai Mei said further. Strengthen the confidence of the shrike.
Shrike is indeed very excited, if the lightning protection fruit really has such a magical effect, it is really of great potential value, such a magical thing can not be let go no matter what. Since ancient times, people have died for money, and birds have died for food.
After thinking about it for a long time, Shrike slapped his palms and said sharply, "That's it, I need some flying machines." ”
"That's perfectly fine." Bai Mei smiled: "We really can't use the general's kind of flying machine, and people will see through the origin all of a sudden." ”
After conspiracy and planning, Bai Mei learned from Xu Yanchi's mouth: "The transaction between the Xu family and the elf clan is being held in the past few days. ”
The date was determined not because the lightning fruit was ripe in these days, but because the head of the Xu family held a birthday in the next few days. The Xu family has always made transactions before the birthday of the head of the family, and after obtaining a huge amount of wealth, it is a rule of the Xu family to hold a birthday for the head of the family.
The time of the transaction cannot be determined, but the location of the transaction can be determined, which is 160 kilometers away from Mucheng at the Turtle Cliff, which is also the rule of the Xu family.
Because the object of the Xu family's trade with the elves is uncertain, for example, last year, it was the elves of the tiger clan who came to buy the lightning protection fruit, and this year the tiger clan will not come again, and the tiger clan does not have so many elves to evolve. This year may be the family of monkeys and reptiles.
The people of the Xu family didn't know who to do business with, and when the Xu family held a birthday for the head of the family with great fanfare, it was the day when they advertised that they were going to sell the lightning protection fruit. The elves who needed to get the lightning protection fruit came to the Turtle Cliff with their treasures, waiting to trade with the people of the Xu family.
Bai Mei stayed in Mucheng, drinking and having fun with the shrike every day, and their twelve women smiled happily and surrounded the men, drinking glass after cup of fine wine, in exchange for happy cheers.
The other team was quietly approaching the Turtle Cliff and found a hidden spot to hide. These were all shrike men, and each of them had his own troops under his command, numbering more than 3,000 men.
The team preparing to rob was covered with their faces covered, wearing irregular armor, and after hiding in the Turtle Cliff for two days, they found that there were a lot of beetles here, and the beetles were all in the shape of a hard shell, with four legs, and there were more beetles with legs and feet, even the beetles were not from the same family.
The samurai watched everything from afar with binoculars and secretly prepared.
When the monk wearing the uniform of the Xu family's uniform appeared, the beetles became excited and clamored, and this year it was the beetles who won the qualification to make a deal with the Xu family.
The Xu family sent nearly a hundred monks to occupy the highest peak of the Divine Turtle Cliff.
Just as the beetle elf clan was about to step forward to connect with the people of the Xu family, a sudden gust of wind blew, and the surrounding weather suddenly became gloomy. An old man from the Xu family shouted: "Be careful. ”
With his warning, the darkness around him shone brightly, and countless magic weapons rose up in the sky.
"Who dares to spread wild on my Xu family's territory?" Someone shouted.
Someone else shouted angrily: "I just don't want to live anymore, do you want to challenge the authority of the Xu family?" ”
The Turtle Cliff became chaotic.
The experienced warriors soon discovered that the seemingly powerful Xu family monks lacked unified command, let alone the experience to deal with sudden changes, and although their number reached more than a hundred, they were fighting separately, and in an instant, they were in chaos.
"Kill them all." Commanding the raid was a regimental commander under Beroe, who pounced on him with three battalions and nine companies of samurai. With or without intention, the samurai came prepared, did not use firearms and weapons, and sacrificed their magic weapons in their hands. Most of the monks of the Xu family were killed and injured at once, and although the elven clan born of beetles was undefeated, they resisted.
