The nine-tailed demon fox roared unwillingly, and then raised its head to the sky and roared.

A fist-sized, dark purple demon core burst through its skull and flew into the air after the Nine-Tails roared, and disappeared from nowhere.

Then, the nine-tails fell down violently, turned into a point of light, and dissipated in the human world.

When Qingming was about to dissipate in the same way, he looked at Miyamoto and said, "You and I are destined, this letter is for you, and when you arrive in Kyoto, give it to that person." ”

Then he grabbed a letter in the air. At the same time, he also dissipated into the world. 、

The letter naturally fell to the ground, and Miyamoto picked it up......

When Miyamoto said this, he suddenly stopped talking, and suddenly made me anxious.

"And then?"

"That's my master's story. He wouldn't let me say. ”

I......

"Sleepy."

What else could I do, I had to leave the room.

On the other side, Ke had already come out of Yingge's room. She looked at me from afar, snorted, and slammed the door into her room.

"Alas, woman." Xiao Fang said with feeling.

"You're a cat, how do you look so emotional?"

Xiao Fang was immediately proud: "Even if I am a cat, I am also the king of cats, and naturally I have a group of wives and concubines." And my purpose is to be impartial, and only by getting wet with rain and dew can I ensure the long-term peace and stability of the harem. ”

I gave it a blank look.

It gave me a paw: "You study hard, there are more and more good resources around you, but there is no strategy for any of them, I despise you too much!" ”

"Ahem, this isn't a harem ......"

"Phew! There is a thief's heart but no thief's courage, goodbye! After saying that, Xiao Fang wagged his tail and entered the original room, taking a magic core in his mouth, not knowing where to go to digest it.

Miyamoto couldn't move, so I had to go to his room for a while.

The next day, the shop was open as usual. But I was woken up in my sleep.

I looked at Pan Bei sleepily, but I looked at him with a worried look: "If you have something to say, I'll go back to sleep if you don't have anything." ”

Pan Bei was even more anxious: "Don't, we seem to have encountered someone who collects protection money." ”

Protection money? In the state of Qin? It's so fresh. I got interested: "Three minutes, I'll come down right away!" ”

After washing up and changing clothes, I ran downstairs with a curious expression.

Downstairs is bustling with activity right now. Except for the private room, there was not a single guest in the lobby. The reason was that a group of five big and three rough ruffians sat in the center of the hall with murder weapons in their hands.

At the door, naturally, the onlookers of the people who eat melons are indispensable.

At the door of the two private rooms, Miyamoto and Ke are guarded. Ah Ke was holding the dagger and was flicking it around in a daze. Miyamoto's complexion was a little better, with a bandage tied with a bow in one hand, and wine in the other, and he was about to drink! His long sword, also leaning against the wall, looked like a person to mess with.

My shop assistants are worthy of my careful selection, and even if they are a little scared, they still stick to their jobs. Sweep, wipe down tables and chairs.

I ran downstairs and ripped off the wine from Miyamoto's hand.

When the ruffian who collected the protection money saw me, he was about to say something, when suddenly a junior said to him, "Lift your foot." ”

The ruffian subconsciously raised his feet.

"Move your ass, I'm going to wipe the table."

"Oh." The ruffian stood up and suddenly reacted: "I'm here to charge!" Give me a sense of presence, okay! ”

It's a pity that everyone is still busy, and no one pays attention to him at all.

With my hands behind my back, I paced to them: "Ahem, I'm the owner of this shop. What do you do? ”

The ruffian who took the lead was immediately furious: "You are the boss? Make no mistake, who are your men? Xiao Er completely ignored us, and the chef didn't care about our food. There are also two people over there, it's terrifying, as soon as you get close, the tip of the knife is flying. And we, just a small collection of protection money, please respect our profession, okay? ”

Ouch, I can't see this. In these years, I am not afraid of ruffians playing hooligans, but I am afraid of ruffians playing culture.

"Ahem, Ke, you seem to be a little different today."

Ah Ke glanced at me and snorted: "I'm in a bad mood today, I don't want to kill." ”

I looked at Miyamoto again: "Miyamoto, you seem to be very different today." ”

Miyamoto raised the arm on his hand and smashed his mouth: "I'm injured, I don't have any wine, I don't have strength." ”

I shook my head: "Alas, the staff is not good, and the boss is difficult to do." ”

The ruffian was angry again: "Feelings, do you want to kill people and kill people? Please, this is Xianyang, the murderer pays for his life. ”

I looked at the ruffian, rolled my eyes, and smiled: "This, strong man!" Actually, you misunderstood, I am very supportive of your work. Since I was a child, I have had a dream that I will be surrounded by a group of people in the future to collect protection money. ”

The ruffian jumped down and patted me on the shoulder: "Boss, what a coincidence! My dream since I was a child is to lead a group of people to collect protection money one day! Since we are so attached, let's pay the protection fee. ”

I squinted my eyes and said, "I wonder how you charge?" ”

In the group of ruffians and hooligans, a person suddenly stood up and said endlessly: "Our business is divided into three grades: large, medium and small. Dabao, monthly hardware, you can enjoy our all-weather security service! The middle insurance, three gold coins per month, is somewhat similar to the business of the big insurance, but we do not provide night security services. Xiaobao, one gold coin per month. We will not send personnel to the store to provide security. But if you are in trouble, you can ask us for help, and we will rush to the end of the conflict and strife. ”

With that, he took another step back and returned to his companions' ranks.

The ruffian spoke again: "How? Do you feel that this is a conscientious service and that the price is reasonable? ”

Hehe, there's a ghost if the price is reasonable!

"What if I don't buy it?"

The ruffian sneered: "I can guarantee that you will not be able to operate normally!" ”

"Well, if I choose Dabao, I wonder which masters will come to our store to help?"

The ruffian was overjoyed and beckoned, and the five hooligans behind him immediately jumped down.

I was a little stunned: "No, that's you, right?" ”

The ruffian was a little unhappy again: "What, dislike how many of our brothers?" Don't underestimate us, we're amazing! ”

I rolled my eyes: "Okay." I'll believe you for a while. ”

"Pan Shun, pay!"

Pan Shun ran from the back hall, without thinking: "Childe, how much?" ”

"Ten gold coins."

"Great!" Pan Shun didn't think about it, so he took out ten gold coins from his arms and handed them to me.

I handed the gold to the ruffian: "Two months." ”

"Okay!" The ruffian looked at the ten gold coins, couldn't help but swallow his saliva, his eyes flashed with excitement, and then waved his hand, "Brothers, go!" Change gear! Don't interfere with your boss's business. ”

"Okay!" The rest replied happily.

Then they left. The guests finally dared to come in and eat.

Pan Bei looked at me strangely and said, "Childe, with your strength, just drive them away, why do you still give them so much money?" ”

I smiled and said, "Don't underestimate them, they know a lot of information, and, when it matters, maybe they can come in handy." ”

Pan Bei shook his head, he really couldn't think of what they could do.
