Chapter 179: A Mysterious Conspiracy
"I can do anything for you! Anything! It doesn't matter if it's hurtful or harmful, whether it's aiding or abetting abuse...... What I want is simple, I need three drops of dragon blood. Three drops! Not a drop is missing! ā
It was a woman in her early thirties with gold-rimmed glasses, short hair, and neat.
At this time, the woman was sitting on a mahogany chair, she was wearing a straight suit, a black skirt underneath, but she was elegantly crossed on her legs, and the Parker pen pinned to her chest was very shiny, which looked like a high-class elite. Her eyes wandered, and she held her glasses in the palm of her hand with a little laziness, and said the above words very calmly, as if she was telling the vegetable seller that your cucumber is not fresh or that the sprouts are too old.
However, she said dragon blood, which made people feel that she was too indifferently calm, and even revealed a trace of indifference and cruelty.
In particular, she is in an environment that is almost completely out of place with her attire. This is the living room of a classical Chinese house, with a pure wooden structure, carved beams and paintings on the outside, and tea and tea on the inside, as if traveling back to the last century or the last century. The old man sitting behind the curtain opposite, looking at his clothes and long braids, the shiny walnuts in his hands, the dull jade board on his thumb, and the mille-feuille cloth shoes under his feet, it is easier for people to have a sense of confusion in time and space.
Fortunately, a man and a woman on either side of the curtain remind that this is the 21st century and that time has not been reversed. The man and the woman were Brother Wolf, the leader of the Heavenly Wolf Gang in Mingzhu City, and Li Qinghua, a beautiful porcelain-like young woman wearing a cheongsam.
It can be seen that the old man behind the curtain is the old emperor of Jiangnan.
Few people can sit opposite the old emperor with the same face as usual, and no one will have the courage to bargain with the old emperor. Besides, three drops of dragon blood, this is no longer the greed and arrogance that can be described by the lion's big mouth, it is simply a long life. At least Brother Wolf thinks so, so he looked at the woman sitting on the opposite side with a strange and slightly pitiful face, who was not young but still charming.
Li Qinghua's knowledge is not shallow, but the thoughts in her heart are about the same as Brother Wolf, two short blades jumped out of her fingertips, waiting for the old emperor to give an order, she was about to rush up and draw a cross on the neck of this unknown woman.
It's a pity that the old man behind the curtain coughed a few times, hissed a hoarse voice, and said slowly: "Three drops, three drops...... Do you know how many drops of dragon blood I have? ā
The short-haired woman lowered her head and fiddled with her phone, as if she was processing some information, and said casually without raising her head: "What does it have to do with me?" ā
Brother Wolf shouted angrily: "Stinky! I'm going to kill you......"
Li Qinghua has already taken a step: "Look for death!" ā
"Stop." The old man's faint voice came from behind the curtain.
Brother Wolf and Li Qinghua glanced at each other, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes, they have always known that the old emperor is not a kind-hearted person, even if a dog dares to bark at him, he can cut his bones and ashes with a thousand knives, this is a real thing, and the dog was raised by the old emperor himself.
The short-haired woman put her phone back in her pocket, glanced around the room as if impatiently, took out a lady's cigarette, lit it, and flicked the ash directly onto the velvet carpet: "Give me a word." Something happened in the real yĆ n room, a guinea pig escaped, and called the police, I have to go back and deal with it. ā
Behind the curtain, the old man sighed and said: "There have been more than 200 years of the Qing Dynasty, and the total number of dragons has saved these twelve drops of dragon blood, and you alone have to take away three drops?" Could it be too much? ā
The woman didn't answer, she raised her wrist and looked at her watch.
Brother Wolf and Li Qinghua couldn't wait to pinch her to death immediately, no one dared to snub the old emperor like this.
"Little girl, you have a lot of guts." The old emperor said hoarsely.
"It's not about guts, it's just what I deserve." The woman became more restless, and her voice became a little impatient.
"You talk to me about pay? Hehe...... You know, I can keep you out of this ancient mansion. The old emperor said in a deep voice.
"Oh, I know." The woman's reaction was very flat, "In this world, I am the only one who can help you do this." So, I guess your IQ should be a little higher than that of a pig and won't kill me. ā
Brother Wolf is already stunned, this woman is simply in the water of her brain? Is it really deadly?
Li Qinghua became solemn, feeling that this woman who was less than two years older than her was a very good character, even if she didn't have any ancient martial arts ability or other special abilities, she was extremely dangerous.
"Huh! Aren't you afraid that I will give it to you, and afterwards, I will get it back? The old emperor sneered.
"No one can snatch my things, not even Lord Yama." The woman thought for a moment and replied very formally.
Then, the hall fell silent.
When the woman finished smoking a cigarette and rudely threw the cigarette butt into the small porcelain cup containing Pu'er, the old emperor spoke again.
"Okay, I promised." The old man compromised.
The woman nodded, stood up and looked at Brother Wolf and said, "The people who sent you will keep an eye on the Liu family's villa, no matter how big or small it is, and report to me." Then, he said to Li Qinghua: "Don't fight Nalan Xinhe's idea anymore, she doesn't know anything." Your mission is to find Shang Yuntian, who was captured and imprisoned by Lin Xiao, and find a way to get him out. ā
With that, he walked away.
"Who's this?" Brother Wolf asked the old emperor.
"What is the identity of this woman? Dare to ask for dragon blood! Li Qinghua also asked.
The old emperor coughed twice and said, "In the future, the two of you will obey her orders, and her words will be my orders." ā
"Why?" Brother Wolf said.
"Why?" Li Qinghua shouted.
"Because, she can make the most of dragon blood." The old emperor said.
Brother Wolf and Li Qinghua were silent.
The old emperor said again: "Little dog, in the final analysis, this incident is caused by your dereliction of duty. As for me, I don't want to be held accountable anymore, that Lin Xiao is very strong, and Porcelain may not be able to take back the Burial Dragon Secret Seal from him. Of course, behind him are the Ninth Detachment and Bailing Mountain and even the entire Chinese Ancient Martial Realm, and we can't go to war with them until we awaken the dragon. So, you have to find a way to get back the Burial Dragon Secret Seal, and Porcelain will help you. ā
"Don't worry, the old emperor, the puppy will definitely live up to expectations and make meritorious contributions." Brother Wolf smiled flatteringly.
Perhaps few people know that this seemingly cunning young tycoon is a retired special soldier, although his fighting ability is slightly inferior to that of ancient martial arts cultivators, but his reconnaissance and espionage ability is unique, which is also the reason why the old emperor supports him. In order to hide his strength, he has never shown his strength in front of outsiders, even if he was approached by the police last time for asking an assassin to assassinate Liu Moran, he did not run away or resist, because he knew that the old emperor was not in danger when he was there, as long as he did not reveal too many secrets. This time, Lin Xiao and the blood clan Earl Li Xunyao fought openly and secretly, all of which were detected by him and reported to the old emperor. Moreover, it was he who secretly infiltrated the Wa Kingdom three months ago, and after several tosses, he got the stolen bronze fragments back to Mingzhu City, of course, and finally went wrong with his subordinate Brother Ba.
"When Porcelain Er advances to the Innate Realm, I will go to fork Lin Xiao." Li Qinghua said. She called killing people a fork, and drew a red cross on her neck. But she was very poor at reading when she was young, and she was often drawn by the teacher and had a deep grudge, and finally one day, the teacher drew a big red cross on her face in front of the whole class, and she broke out. At night, she sneaked into the teacher's house and drew a huge red cross on his neck with a knife. After the killing, Li Qinghua escaped, was rescued by the old emperor and taught ancient martial arts.
"Don't be brutal, the Dragon Vein Secret Book has arrived, we still have time, we can afford to wait. The most important thing now is not the secret seal of the burial dragon on Lin Xiao's body, but Shang Yuntian. The old emperor said.
"Yes." Li Qinghua bowed her head.
