Chapter 92: Hostage Exchange
"Who wouldn't want a treasure? With these treasures, I can have no worries about food and clothing, and only a fool will become an official! Li Canghai responded with a smile.
Huiguang glanced at him in surprise, as if he didn't expect him to say this, and couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and lowered his head and thought of Amitabha.
"Lord Li, this is changing fast, before in Luoyang, you almost put the slave family in prison!" Hong Yan looked at him in surprise, and suddenly giggled.
Shrugged helplessly, Li Canghai made a helpless expression, "You also know that I am a child of a poor family, and I became an official to earn more silver, and then marry a wife and have children." However, I can't do such a lack of morality as looting people's fat and people's ointment, so I can only crack more cases and rely on performance appraisal to mix up some rewards. ”
Hong Yan glanced at him charmingly, and said with a smile: "It turns out that Master Li is still a Qing official, it seems that the slave family blames you." ”
"Hey, what did Miss Hongyan say, in fact, I have to thank you, if you hadn't killed three people in a row, I wouldn't have known about the treasure, let alone found the treasure." Li Canghai waved his hand and grinned.
Hong Yan looked at him suspiciously, and he didn't know whether what he said was true or false, and after a moment of silence, Hong Yan smiled and said, "What Master Li said seems to be true or false, which is hard to believe!" ”
"You can not believe me, but you should believe in the treasure, right?" Li Canghai smiled slightly.
"Do you know where the treasure is?" Hong Yan's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise.
Li Canghai showed a confident smile and said lightly: "I dare to say that apart from me, there is no second person in this world who can find the location of the treasure." ”
When he said this, it was nothing more than to prevent the other party from suddenly attacking. There are few people on his side, and most of them are seriously injured, and the opponent has a large number of people, and it seems that all of them are martial arts masters, and the difference in strength between the two sides is too big, and he must find a way to stabilize the other party.
The people who followed Hong Yan were a little skeptical, but Hong Yan was convinced of this, she had learned Li Canghai's skills, if there was someone in this world who could find a treasure in such a short time, she absolutely believed that this person was none other than Li Canghai.
"For the sake of your handsomeness, I will believe you once." Hong Yan winked at him and smiled coquettishly.
"So, our cooperation is confirmed?" Li Canghai also winked at her.
"Of course, but ......." Hong Yan nodded, she suddenly changed her words, and said with a smile: "In order to show the sincerity of cooperation, I think we should exchange hostages." ”
Hongyan's words surprised several people, and Li Canghai scolded in his heart, this girl is quite a thief.
Hearing that he was going to change hostages, Huiguang stood up and said in a low voice: "Amitabha, the little monk is willing to be a hostage." ”
Li Canghai didn't expect Huiguang to take the initiative to be a hostage, he hurriedly grabbed Huiguang's sleeve and said, "Master, no!" ”
Without waiting for Huiguang to speak, Hongyan spoke: "Master, I kindly told you about the 'Melting Fire Gu Worm', but you betrayed me to the Yamen, and I was almost caught, if you are a hostage, I am afraid that I will still be planted in your hands!" ”
The meaning of these words is obvious, Hong Yan doesn't want Huiguang to be a hostage, last time it was because he underestimated this bald head, and when he saw him humbly asking for advice, he told him about the habits of Gu worms. Unexpectedly, this bald donkey actually knew Li Canghai, and secretly informed Li Canghai about the Gu worm, which made her completely exposed.
"Amitabha, the benefactor of Hongyan misunderstood, the little monk never betrayed the donor, the little monk just tried his best to give justice to the deceased." Huiguang clasped his hands together and said with a calm expression.
Hong Yan smiled and said, "The little woman is not blaming the master, the master is merciful, and the little woman should be admired." However, with the master by his side, the slave family is very uneasy. ”
"And who do you want to be a hostage?" Li Canghai's brows furrowed.
Hong Yan glanced at a few people, Di Qing and Liu Suifeng, and they could see at a glance that they were by no means easy people, so they naturally ruled it out.
Li Canghai is thoughtful, Monk Huiguang is unfathomable, He Xiao is a wasted person, leaving him as a hostage is not the slightest deterrent, but he has to set aside someone to take care of him, and these three people are also excluded.
It seems that there is only one person who is the most suitable.
"Him!" Hong Yan pointed at Ma Shang and said seriously.
Li Canghai's brows suddenly furrowed, he originally thought that Hongyan would leave He Xiao or be a hostage himself, but he didn't expect the other party to choose Ma Shang.
To be honest, he didn't have much friendship with Ma Shang Pingshui, and he didn't want to gamble with other people's lives.
Just as he was about to say that he would use himself as a hostage, Marchand actually agreed: "I am willing to be a hostage." ”
Li Canghai was stunned, he didn't expect him to agree so quickly, so he spoke: "Brother Ma, this matter has nothing to do with you, you don't need to be in danger." ”
Ma Shang shook his head and said seriously: "Along the way, thanks to Brother Li's rescue three times and twice, I can survive." I don't have much ability, I can't repay the great kindness, I can only repay Brother Li for saving me. After a pause, he looked at Hongyan and the others, and laughed at himself: "Even if you exclude me, I'm afraid they won't let me go." ”
Ma Shang could see that the group of people behind Hongyan were all outlaws, and they would never let themselves go out alive, stay as hostages, and maybe there was a possibility of survival.
"Brother Ma, don't worry, if they dare to touch a single hair of yours, I will never spare them!" Li Canghai solemnly assured Ma Shang.
Ma Shang nodded to him, and then walked behind Hong Yan with a calm face, and several big men immediately surrounded him.
"My brother is gone, and now it's your turn." Li Canghai frowned coldly and shouted in a low voice.
Hong Yan casually pointed at a person and said, "You go to be a hostage." ”
The man bowed slightly, and walked over with a brisk walk.
Li Canghai glanced at Liu Suifeng, Liu Suifeng knew it in his heart, and reached out to the man a few times like lightning, the person's breath stagnated, and he opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood.
Hong Yan raised his eyebrows, and just as he was about to make a difficulty, Li Canghai smiled and said: "You are all martial arts masters, we have to guard against it a little, otherwise, if you hostage is in trouble, you will directly break my neck, so don't I dig a pit for myself?" ”
Liu Suifeng touched his chin and took over lightly: "Don't worry, I just sealed his meridians and made him temporarily lose his martial arts." ”
"Okay, in that case, Master Li, can we go find the treasure now?" Hong Yan bit her lip and asked plaintively.
"Nope."
"Why?" Hong Yanxiu's eyebrows frowned.
"Qing'er is resting and hasn't woken up yet." Li Canghai stroked Hongyan's hair with pity, and a gentle color flashed in his eyes.
