Chapter 109: The Masked Man

In order to respond to the owner, Chen Jinwang has been running around looking for land under the scorching sun in the past few days, and Ying Tiancheng has run all over the city. In response to the sentence "The owner moves his mouth, and Lao Chen breaks his legs". At this time, he was busy haggling with people, but he didn't know that another difficult task had fallen on his head.

It is estimated that it will be a great honor to know, for him, his uncle's business is his business, and he is the number one under the Gu family...... Gan.

Even if you don't understand your uncle's move to buy land, you will never question it, and you will only be a hard-working old scalper.

Without Gu Bei's support, there would be no current Chen Jinwang!

The owner treats me as a national soldier, and I should repay him as a national soldier!

The proprietor treats me as a passerby, and I should treat me as a ...... Ahem, non-existent.

This is Chen Jinwang's current life creed, the life creed of an honest businessman who has not fully profited.

Chen Jinwang is a very particular person, he received a message from the owner, and he didn't take a breath when he just got home, and he hurriedly killed people with him...... Ahem, rush to the kiln where the ceramics are fired.

Of course, before going, he first asked someone to inquire about this kiln and learn the most basic information.

In the carriage, after reading these materials, Chen Jinwang pondered.

It's not because of how big the background of this kiln is, but because of how much silver is appropriate in my heart.

Now Chen Jinwang is no longer the frog at the bottom of the well a few months ago, trusted by the East family, the Chamber of Commerce handed over to him to take care of, after several months of tempering, Chen Jinwang appears more mature and stable, more shrewd and capable in the world, and also makes him more confident!

After the last silver theft turmoil, Chen Jinwang became more cautious, and followed seven or eight sturdy guards before and behind him. These are all good players hired at a high price, and each person is paid one block three, which is the minimum requirement. Of course, this "block three" represents ordinary people.

There is a saying that "if you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of thieves"

Now Tianxianglu has swept the entire Xia Kingdom and has become an indispensable luxury for nobles, and even many merchants from other prefectures and cities came to negotiate, and after consulting the owner, he politely rejected them one by one.

The Tianxiang dew in the remote county town has been fried to a sky-high price, and there are many people who covet the Tianxiang dew, and some people heard that he has a formula from somewhere, and they actually want to kidnap his family and blackmail him into handing over the formula...... Fortunately, they were all driven away by the family nursing home. Now Tianxianglu is fragrant, and everyone wants to mix it in.

So far, only he and the owner know the recipe of Tianxianglu, even Steward Xiao is not clear, and the workshop has also increased guards.

Chen Jinwang is very satisfied with his current life, he used to be cautious, and he accompanied everyone with a smiling face, for fear that he would accidentally offend a powerful person or a giant businessman, and be ruined. Since doing things for the owner, not only has he become a guest of the powerful, but even the giant businessmen who looked down on him before are cautious when talking to him.

There is a world of difference between having a background and not having a background!

Chen Jinwang rolled up the curtain of the car and watched the hawkers on the street, the passers-by in a hurry, the teahouse full of people, and the Qingguan woman who greeted customers at the door......

It's a lot of life!

The carriage staggered out of the city gate and headed for the suburban kiln. In the past few days, I have been busy buying land, running around for days, and I have long been sleepy, so I take a nap in the bumpy carriage when I have time.

I don't know how long I walked in a daze, but the carriage suddenly stopped, and suddenly there were a few shouts, and then there was a faint noise.

Chen Jinwang came to his senses, frowned, lifted the curtain and looked, and more than a dozen big men surrounded the carriage. These people all held swords in their hands, their expressions were fierce, wearing masks, and their eyes slowly surrounded them.

Chen Jinwang's first reaction was that he had been robbed, and he was not too panicked, after all, the guards he hired were all there.

Chen Jinwang jumped out of the carriage, arched his hand at more than a dozen masked men, and said, "Brothers, is this a lack of silver?" No problem, Da Gou will give you a hundred taels of silver. are all people in the rivers and lakes, who doesn't have a time of emergency? You take the money and leave, and we just go forward, I have not seen you, and you have not seen us. Guys, what do you think? ”

"Why is this old man so poor? What is he saying? A big man dressed in black and wearing Sun Dasheng's mask spoke up.

"This is treating us as little thieves who are robbing, haha, a hundred taels of silver, Brother Monkey, when did you have to make such a move?" A big man wearing a mask of a sand monk laughed.

The masked men laughed as well.

The one who was called Brother Monkey was the big man wearing Sun Dasheng's mask, and he only heard Brother Monkey say angrily: "Laugh at a fart!" Is it that funny? ”

The masked men were silenced.

"You are Chen Jinwang?" Brother Monkey asked coldly.

Chen Jinwang immediately felt that something was wrong, the robbers would not name them. The gang wore masks to hide their eyes and ears, and they didn't want people to recognize them. Since these people can call their names, and they suddenly make a move here, they decided to come out temporarily, obviously this group of masked people followed all the way, and it happened that there were few pedestrians in this place, so they chose to do it.

"It is Chen Jinwang." Chen Jinwang said in a deep voice.

"Well, it's a man, and he didn't deny it. Chen Dongjia, you can call me Brother Monkey. ”

If the name is said to be unspoken, no wonder he is wearing the mask of a monkey.

"Brother Monkey, it's polite. But I don't know what Brother Monkey is doing to find Chen? Chen Jinwang arched his hand.

Brother Monkey arched his hand and said: "Be polite and polite, Chen Dongjia, we specially came to invite Chen Dongjia, Chen Dongjia, please come with us." Chen Jinwang frowned and said: "Chen and you don't know each other, I don't know what you do, but I can't go with you." ”

Brother Monkey laughed with the masked people.

"Chen Dongjia doesn't know us, but we know you, Chen Dongjia. The name of the Chen Dong family has long been heard by us. Chen Dongjia, don't ask too much if you know each other, my master wants to see you and come with us obediently. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rough. ”

"Who is your master? Why do you want to see Chen? Chen Jinwang was already faintly aware of the reason.

"What is the name of my master, Chen Dong's family will know when he goes. At this point, I don't need to say more. ”

Chen Jinwang's heart sank, in the past month, several waves of people have come to the door, all for the Tianxiang Dew formula. He had been guarding against it all the time.

In the past, Chen Jinwang chose a street with many pedestrians when he went out every day, and it was always safe to have a lot of people. But when he went out of the city today and did things according to the instructions of the owner, Chen Jinwang thought that the back and forth time was not long, and there were guards, so he was a little careless, and now there was an accident immediately.

"Chen Dongjia, don't rub it off. Although you have guards, you also have a lot of men, and you don't want to escape from the palm of my hand today. Brother Monkey let out a hehe sneer.

"Chen Dongjia, don't think about delaying time and waiting for someone to save you. What my master wants, Chen Dongjia, you should understand very well. My master said, either bring back the recipe and you go, or bring people back. If you don't know how to do it, Brother Monkey might as well take your corpse back. Brother Monkey said coldly.

Chen Jinwang didn't have time to think about it, he looked at the guards who had no fighting spirit, and knew that he could not be spared today, after all, the number of masked people was twice as large as his.

"Brother Monkey, in this case, Chen will go with you. But please spare these guards, they are innocent. Chen Jinwang pointed to the guards beside him.

It's better to die alone than to be here, after all, these guards also have families, and if he is captured, these guards can also go to report to the owner, maybe there is still a chance of life. He had already made up his mind to wait for the master behind the masked man, and if he was forced to hand over the formula, he would bite his tongue and kill himself, and he could not betray the owner. After many years of crawling in the mall, Chen Jinwang understands very well that if he hands over the formula, he will definitely die, and if he doesn't hand it over, it is better to live than to die. He was afraid that he would not be able to withstand the torture by then......

Brother Monkey shook his head: "Chen Dongjia, we want to let them go, but I'm afraid it won't work." If we let them go, they will not cause us trouble if they turn around and run to report to the police. Rest assured, we'll give them a good time. ”

Chen Jinwang said angrily: "Your master just wants so-and-so, these guards are just hired by Chen, why do you want to kill them all?" ”

Brother Monkey sneered: "Chen Dongjia, it's better to worry about yourself." ”

One of the guards said ruthlessly: "The owner, you don't have to beg them, they are all dead anyway, why don't we go with them to break the net, kill one without loss, kill two and make money." Several other guards chimed in.

Chen Jinwang looked at the guards around him, and before he could speak, he saw the guard whisper: "The owner, you hired me at a high price, now it's time for our brothers to contribute, and we will cover the owner's departure later, if you ...... The owner can escape, I hope the owner can take care of my family, and my brother will be grateful!"

Chen Jinwang still wanted to persuade, but seeing that these guards looked resolute, he had no choice but to give up and sighed in his heart.

The man in the mask of Monk Sha shouted: "Brother Monkey, what are you talking about with him?" Take him, let's go back and pay the errand. Brother Monkey nodded, and with a wave of his hand, more than a dozen masked men slowly approached, slowly shrinking the encirclement.

Chen Jinwang naturally refused to be restrained, took out a self-defense dagger, and the guards also pulled out the saber on their waists with their backhands, and seven or eight people surrounded Chen Jinwang in the middle with nervous expressions, squeezing together shoulder to shoulder.

"Chen Dongjia, if you want to do this, don't blame us for being polite. Brothers, since they want to resist, they don't care whether they live or die, and they can bring the corpse back and hand it over. Don't show mercy to your subordinates, give it to me. Brother Monkey shouted.

The masked men agreed in unison, and one of the masked men rushed forward with a shout, slashing the steel knife at the head of one of the guards.

Although the guard was physically strong, he used to be just an ordinary fight, bullying ordinary people, where had he ever seen such a real battle. Seeing this, his face turned pale with fright, and the steel knife in his hand trembled and greeted him.

Clang!

The steel knives of the two collided together, emitting a flash of fire, a force came, and there was a secret scream, and the knife in the guard's hand flew out, and was slashed down by the mask man with full strength, and he died directly on the spot, and blood flew sideways.

The guard's eyes widened and he fell at Chen's feet. All the guards were a little stunned, Chen Jinwang looked at the guard at his feet, and saw a long knife mark on the guard's face and chest, deep to the bone, all the guards shivered, and they were scared into a cold sweat.

"Damn it, brothers, we're fighting this group of bandits!" One of the guards roared in mourning.

The rest of the guards looked at the death of the guard, which stimulated their fighting spirit, and they all had red eyes, anyway, they couldn't escape today, and they would die, so it was better to kill a few more backs.

The guards screamed and rushed at the masked men with steel knives in their hands, fighting with the masked men. Chen Jinwang looked at the flashing knife light around him, as soon as he made contact, the guards fell down one by one, he knew that it was okay to let these guards fight bravely, it was really incomparable with this group of masked people who licked blood from the knife edge, and sighed, knowing that the end was coming.

Squatting down, he stretched out his hand to caress the widening eyes of the guard who had died first, and slowly closed his eyes. Whoosh! Several cold rays of light shot out from behind Chen Jinwang, and the two masked men who rushed to the nearest screamed and fell to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of gold and iron clashing rang out repeatedly. Chen Jinwang opened his eyes in surprise, but saw a sword light wrapped in a white shadow fighting to the death with more than a dozen masked people.

There were two bloody corpses lying on his side, and the bodies of two masked men were thrown down not far away.

Chen Jinwang looked at the white-shirted figure in front of him in surprise, and blurted out, "Yes...... Is it Jade Prince? "The person who came was Jade Jianxuan, and at this moment, he was wielding a long sword to force Brother Monkey and the remaining five masked people to be embarrassed.

Yu Jianxuan's martial arts are above them, and although Brother Monkey also has some kung fu, he is not an opponent.

After a few battles, the Jade Sword Xuan's long sword trembled like a shadow, and a masked man screamed with a sword in his chest and fell and rolled down.

Brother Monkey shouted and roared, and the long knife in his hand slashed violently, but he couldn't touch half of the corner of Yu Jianxuan's clothes. When the other three masked men also fell, Brother Monkey knew that he would not be able to succeed today.

So he suddenly stretched out his foot and kicked the last masked man on the side and flew towards Jade Sword Xuan, and he took the opportunity to jump backwards and rush towards the mountains and forests.

Yu Jianxuan swung his sword and slashed the last masked man, and in his busy schedule, he drew his long sword in his hand and was about to throw it out.

The sound of drawing a sword came from the ground, and I saw Brother Monkey's body tremble, and he flew out and lay on the ground. Yu Jianxuan and Chen Jinwang saw that a beautiful girl in a pink dress and a ponytail came out of the forest holding a sword and grinning at them.

Jade Jianxuan returned the sword into the sheath and slowly walked towards the place where Brother Monkey fell. Brother Monkey had a sword wound on his back, bubbling with blood, but he was not dead, and his fingers clutched the turf and crawled desperately into the woods.

Chen Jinwang also hurried over, holding the dagger with trembling hands, ready to aim at Brother Monkey's head to mend the knife.

Yu Jianxuan waved his hand, signaling that he didn't need to mend the knife, because Brother Monkey was stabbed in the back by the long sword, and it was obvious that he would not survive.

"You ...... Very good ......, the master will not spare you...... When the time comes, someone will ask us for revenge. Chen Jinwang, Formula ...... If you don't hand it over, you will never have peace...... Ahem, hehe...... When the time comes...... Not a single one can run. Brother Monkey had blood in his mouth, kicked his breath, and said viciously.

Chen Jinwang frowned, these masked people are really tough, they are all like this, they are still threatening others, and they are still talking ruthlessly.

"Brother Monkey, you can go with confidence! As for whether your master can avenge you in the future, Chen doesn't know. Although Chen is just a businessman, he will never compromise with you turtles with their heads and tails hidden. ”

"Hehe, don't think that if you solve us, you can escape? We're dead, and there's something more powerful coming to get you. Originally...... I'll just take you. But now, when the news of our failure spreads back, the master will send more powerful people to arrest you, as well as all the people of your Chen family, one counts as one...... Don't even think about living. Hey...... Ahem...... You don't know how powerful your master is, and when the time comes, none of you will survive, and you will all ...... It's all ...... Die. Brother Monkey said these cruel words, his body suddenly twitched and shook wildly, and then he died of breath.

Chen Jinwang stood there with a frown, and saw that the two brothers and sisters of Yujian were all right, wiping the blood on the long sword in their hands with the same movement, and then remembered to step forward and salute.

"Young Master Yu, Miss Yu, for your salvation, Chen owes you a life, and you will be rewarded for what you ask for in the future."

"Not necessarily."

Yu Jianxuan wiped the long sword in his hand, the sword body was already clean and shiny, and he still repeated this action.

Chen Jinwang had met his brother and sister twice in the store before, and he didn't care about Yu Jianxuan's cold personality.

Yu Jianqi smiled: "Chen Dongjia, you don't have to be polite, our brothers and sisters just happened to pass by." ”

"Chen Dongjia, let's hurry up and dispose of the corpses of these people, otherwise they will be scared to death if someone walks on the mountain road at night." Seeing that Chen Jinwang still wanted to thank her, Yu Jianqi changed the topic, she and her brother came with a mission, so naturally they didn't want to reveal their identities.

More is better than less, Chen Jinwang nodded and said: "That's right, although no one may walk at night, but someone will pass by early tomorrow morning, wouldn't it be so scared that it will be troublesome for the government to know." At that moment, the three of them dragged more than a dozen corpses into the woods, found a pothole, threw them all in, and covered them with fallen branches.

This kind of disposal is obviously not appropriate, but to bury it can only be done tomorrow with tools, for the time being.

After some busyness, the sky was gradually getting dark, Chen Jinwang personally drove the carriage, and the three of them rushed to the city.

On the way, Chen Jinwang tried to ask the reason why the Yu family brothers and sisters appeared here, Yu Jianqi smiled and said nothing, while Yu Jianxuan sat in the carriage and closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

In desperation, Chen Jinwang packed up his curiosity, if he hadn't met the two brothers and sisters of the Yu family today, with their rescue, he would have been in a different place, and he had made up his mind that he would be useful in the future and must repay the grace of saving his life.
