Chapter 39: Not Negotiable

"That's right, I'm just grabbing, what's the matter? Not convinced? Either I will release the people if I give the money, or I will collect all the people and goods. Mao Wenlong warned the old man viciously, and then turned to leave.

Chen Jisheng leaned forward with a smile, took out a dagger from his body, and gently slid it on the old man's arm.

As soon as the cold blade touched his skin, the old man suddenly got goosebumps.

Chen Jisheng's face suddenly sank, and he said in a dark voice: "You have to think clearly, whether to give money or life." ”

The old man gradually showed his comfort, it was Shen Shangxuan who was abused just now, and he could talk to Mao Wenlong very calmly. But this will be his own life hanging by a thread, and naturally he will no longer be as calm as before.

"Give the money, the old man immediately asked people to go back and tell the old patriarch, please give us a little time!" The hero is not too late to lose money in front of him, and the old man can be regarded as having figured it out.

Compared to his own life, 100,000 taels of silver is really nothing. Moreover, this money is not for him to pay, but for his eldest brother.

Chen Jisheng took back the dagger with satisfaction and asked Liu Guangzuo to let the two tied men come over. Pointing to the two men, Chen Jisheng said to the old man: "Give you an hour, if you haven't seen the Shen family bring money after an hour, then I will kill you first!" ”

The old man secretly complained in his heart, originally he still wanted to let the person who went back to report the news to his eldest brother report to the official. But I didn't expect people to calculate the time so accurately, an hour is only enough to go back and forth, and there can be no delay in between.

In desperation, the old man had to put away the careful thoughts in his heart, and honestly instructed the two men who reported the news not to make mistakes.

Chen Jisheng didn't let the old man say much, and after seeing that he had ordered, he pushed the two men aside, threw two old horses to them, and then let them go.

The two men didn't dare to hesitate at all, and after flying on the horse, they galloped in the direction of Shenjiazhen.

Mao Wenlong had already come to Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan's side at this time, found the coolest place for the two of them, handed them the kettle, and just wanted to sit down and rest.

Unexpectedly, Shen Qing came over, Ye Shaolong frowned and said in a deep voice, "Something?" ”

"Lord Governor, can I talk to my second uncle?" Shen Qing said and turned to point at the old man in the distance.

Mao Wenlong paused for a moment, and immediately nodded: "Go!" ”

"Lord Xie Dudu!" Shen Qing was very surprised, and hurriedly thanked him and ran over.

Mao Wenlong looked at his departing back, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. He had already seen through Shen Qing's intentions, and he couldn't just convince the old man to let him help him sit as the patriarch.

The Shen family is just a stepping stone for Mao Wenlong, and it is not worth mentioning at all. As for Shen Qing, Mao Wenlong didn't even take it seriously.

Now he still has something to use, if he finds that he has no use value in the future, Mao Wenlong can destroy him at any time, including the Shen family.

Mao Wenlong was thinking about the future, but Hong Ziyan said at this time: "Brother Mao, the other party is a local hero, is it a little inappropriate for us to do this when we first come here." ”

The Shen family is no better than those horse thieves before, they can speak with their fists, and they will be killed by Mao Wenlong, which will not have any bad consequences.

But the Shen family is a local tycoon, it must be rich and powerful, Mao Wenlong extorted their money like this, the other party will inevitably be dissatisfied afterwards, and revenge will inevitably follow.

"Revenge! That also has to be the strength of the Shen family. "Mao Wenlong dared to blackmail the Shen family, naturally he was sure that he would be able to solve all the troubles, so he didn't worry about these at all.

"Xianggong or don't be careless, as the saying goes, a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake. We are new to the place of life, and as soon as we come, we will offend the largest family in Ye County, and we are afraid that we will continue to be in trouble in the future. Chen Lan also had a worried look on her face, but she said it tactfully enough.

Mao Wenlong waved his hand and said indifferently: "You don't have to worry, it's just a small place." You know, I'm a person who aspires to the world, and if I encounter a small place and am afraid of it, then it is better to find a paradise now and live a secluded life in isolation. ”

Hearing this, Chen Lan no longer persuaded her, she would have remembered Mao Wenlong's resurrection, and the matter of immortals. Such incredible things have happened to him, and what else is impossible.

Chen Lan was immediately relieved, and she was no longer worried at all, she fully believed that Mao Wenlong could handle it well.

Hong Ziyan saw that Chen Lan was no longer speechless, she hesitated for a moment, and did not say anything more. After all, she was just a passerby, and it was only because Mao Wenlong had a life-saving grace for herself that she kindly reminded her.

An hour passed quickly, and there was still no sign on the empty official road. Chen Jisheng's face darkened, and he escaped from the dagger again and walked towards the old man.

Shen Qing was still talking to him, and the two seemed to have reached a consensus! When he saw Chen Jisheng, who was coming violently, the old man immediately glanced at Shen Qing again and again.

Shen Qing gave the old man a reassuring look in understanding, and then stepped forward to stop Chen Jisheng and said, "General Chen, an hour has just arrived, I hope you can give the second uncle a little more time." After all, the damn old man of the Shen family, his precious son is still here, and he will definitely bring money to ransom people! ”

Chen Jisheng glared at Shen Qing fiercely, and then looked back at Mao Wenlong, and only after seeing the latter nod in agreement, he withdrew his dagger and said coldly: "Give him another half an hour, if no one has come, Lao Tzu Ling Chi will execute them." ”

"Thank you, General Chen!" Shen Qing bowed deeply to Chen Jisheng who turned to leave!

At this time, the old man opened his mouth and asked in a low voice, "Qing'er, who are they?" ”

Shen Qing had a complicated look on his face, shook his head and said, "I don't know now, I only know that they are officers and soldiers, and they are really ruthless characters who kill people without blinking." So, second uncle, you'd better not have any luck, I hope that the old immortal can arrive within half an hour, otherwise I won't be able to keep you safe. ”

The old man's face changed, an hour had passed, but no Shen family had arrived. At this moment, the old man's heart also began to feel uneasy, and he didn't dare to guarantee that the eldest brother would come. After all, the 100,000 taels of silver that Mao Wenlong asked for was not a small amount, and if it weren't for Shen Shangxuan here, he would have no confidence.

When the old man was panicked, everyone finally heard the faint sound of horses' hooves, and followed the sound, only to see three carriages and dozens of horsemen on the official road in the direction of the Shen family, which were galloping wildly.

Although the dust was flying all over the sky and his vision was extremely bad, the old man could still distinguish the lantern hanging high on the carriage at a glance, and the big Shen character on it.
