Chapter 42: The King of Gaffes

"This tea is pretty good." Ristan took a sip of steaming tea from a bone china cup and let out a heartfelt admiration. The thief's keen eyes kept turning and turning, looking around the small room. In the corner is a full-top bookcase, behind the glass window is stacked with overlapping report sheets, and on the left is a small long table, where the target of today's meeting greets the visitor with a smile. In front of him were two slightly old sofas on which he and Scar were sitting. I didn't think anything of it, but the arrogant student council president was a little uncomfortable, and looked at the old man with a frown for a long time before he sat down slowly, and his eyes flashed with disgust. I'm afraid that the days of pampering have passed for too long, and I forgot how to write the word frugality. Ristan peeked at the young man in front of him and muttered to himself.

Ristan doesn't really have much affection for him, looking at him is like seeing a smiling tiger, you never know when he will get angry, break through the shackles and throw you to the ground, and take your life with his claws hidden in the palm of his flesh. For such a dangerous person, Rystan knows how to get along, that is, stay away, stay away from him, and never be targeted by this tiger.

"Fortunately, this is the tea that was originally available in the town guard's house, and I don't know how long it was left when I came, but the packaging is intact, so I took the liberty to entertain the two." Ji Qi said with a smile, rubbing his hands together like a waiter in a hotel, dutifully taking care of these two gods.

Hearing this, Scar, who picked up the teacup, did not hesitate to put the cup back in its place and wiped his hands with the handkerchief in his jacket pocket. Truth be told, he didn't want to taste any untested food, including tea. But the cultivation of the aristocracy told him that in front of the host, he should still talk about etiquette and not lose the face of the nobleman, although in his heart he never regarded this stupid boy from the poor countryside as the master, but still gave him full respect on the surface.

"Is it Chen Cha?" Rystan did not have the slightest displeasure on his face, but tasted the tea more carefully, like an artist appreciating a treasure. "Aged tea is good, after years of precipitation, the taste is more intense."

"That's right, this tea is just like people, the older and more mature you are, the more things you will understand." Jiqi agreed with him and continued in a rambling voice. "Therefore, young people should still drink more tea, so that they can better understand the philosophy of life and understand the sophistication of human feelings."

"That's it, I didn't expect you and I to be fellow believers, but I met a bosom friend today." Ristan's eyes lit up, and his eyes flashed with a frenzy.

"Ahem," Scar coughed softly, interrupting their late conversation, and he put back on the white gloves on the table, moving carefully like a mad painter in pursuit of perfection. "Headmaster, we're not here to discuss tea this time, but we have more important things to talk about with the Jiqi students, don't you say?" He looked at Ristan with a cold look in his eyes.

"Yes, yes," Rystan patted his head, suddenly realized, and smiled awkwardly. "Look at my memory, it's really hard to use my brain when I'm old."

"Oh, really?" Ji Qi pretended not to know anything and asked curiously, "Then I don't know what you came to me for?" I don't know anything important to be there for the Vice Chancellor and the Student Council President, and I'm so flattered. ”

"We're here first to deliver the weapons that we're giving you as a reward." Speaking of which, Scar looked at his slender fingers and continued, "The second is to make a deal with you, a sure deal, a deal that you won't refuse. ”

"Oh? Tell me about it? I happen to be short of money recently, how can someone send money to the door without appreciating it? Jiqi smiled like a profiteer.

"Join us and become one of us, we will give you a huge amount of perks and resources every month, as well as all the weapons you need, as long as you ask, the arsenal can be given to you." Scar is straight to the point, without the slightest minus in the of petty. "But, in exchange, you have to follow our arrangement. That's all we ask for, and I guess it's nothing compared to what you get. ”

"It's an unequal exchange, isn't it?" Jiqi stood up and looked at the two people in front of him, he smiled slightly, his eyes were misty, as if he was reminiscing about the past. "I remember my political science instructor, who was it? By the way, it was Norvi, the old man with white hair who walked unsteadily, although he was a little dizzy, but what he said was still very useful. He told us that trading is only relative, and you think that you are making more money than the other person in this exchange, and the other party thinks the same way as you. A little allowance and resources in exchange for my allegiance, I'm afraid this bargaining chip is still not enough to weigh the scale in my heart. ”

"Oh? In other words, the students are not interested in our trading? Scar asked.

"No, no, no, I just think it's too little." Ji Qi waved his finger in denial. "The biggest shortcoming of me is that I am greedy and want to become fat in one bite, because I am still too thin, so thin that my stomach can't fill up. So what I mean is, your offer is too low, a NO.1 is more than that, I want to see your sincerity, the greatest sincerity. ”

"That's it," Scar nodded, looking at the other man's wavering expression, knowing that the deal was about to be done. "Every month, the resources are 500,000 yuan, and the allowance is so much, as for weapons, a maximum of 10 pieces, no matter what kind of weapon it is. This is my biggest bottom line, and I hope you don't let me down. By the end, his voice had become low and threatening.

"So much?" Jiqi had an ecstatic expression, as if he would nod in agreement the next moment. "By the way, I'd like to ask our student council president one last question."

"Ask, if you have any questions, ask them clearly now, so as not to have no chance in the future." With a smile of aristocratic standards, Scar looked at the prey in front of him that had already been captured.

"I've heard you all say that there's nothing in this world that money can't buy, even if it's priceless, you can still pocket it if it's priced high enough, right?"

"That's also true." "Everything else can be measured in terms of wealth, but only if you have enough capital to negotiate with the other side, and a person who has nothing can't say such a big thing." ”

"Really?" Jiqi shook his head, disagreeing with the other party's opinion. "Then I want to ask, how much is that skull around your neck worth, I'm very interested in him, I want to buy it as a collector's item, but I don't have much money on me, can you sell it cheaply? How about giving me your skull in exchange for that cup of tea on the table? He put away his playful expression and looked at the two people in front of him sharply, without the slightest look of fear.

"So that's not going to be a good deal?" Scar sneered, he stood up, for the first time he looked at this nobody who he thought he only needed to look down, he didn't expect that he was the object of being played by the other party from the beginning, he thought he was sure to win, he didn't expect that he didn't have the idea of agreeing at all, everything was just a joke. For the first time, he, a haughty prince, had an emotion called anger, and for the first time he had the urge to kill. "Are you sure you refuse our request?"

"Do you think I agreed?" Jiqi raised his eyebrows, revealing a look of disdain, "Or is it that one of your student council presidents is swollen enough to threaten me?" Do you know? I didn't take you seriously from the beginning, I was just playing with you from the beginning, I didn't expect you, a nobleman who prides himself on being a master, to experience such a shame. I don't have much else to do, but what I like most is to see your angry faces, and the angrier you are, the happier I am. At the end of the day, he began to laugh, and like a madman, he fell into complete madness, and began to dance alone.

"You know what? No one has ever dared to joke with me like this, you are the first and will be the last. Scar's voice was low, like a ghost. He suddenly raised his head, his golden pupils like the sun, and gave out the gaze of a king, staring at the rebels and thieves in front of him. Like gold, Scar shines with its noble light at this moment. In an instant, as if time stood still, everything around him began to slow down, and wisps of dust stopped in midair, suspended in Scar's eyes, unable to move the slightest. This is his admiral bloodline, called the talent of condensation, everything within a certain range will obey his will condensation, in that heaven and earth, he is the supreme king, no one can disobey, even the rebel can only submit before the king. That's why he's called the strongest, he doesn't need any hole cards, he's the best hole card!

“NO.1? That's it. He reached out his hand, ready to pat the other man's cheek in response as if insulted, and then plunged the blade in his sleeve into the other's fragile neck, blood gushing like a fountain and falling into a deep sleep called death over time. He proudly stretched out his hand, but to his surprise, Jiqi, who had been like a sculpture and would not do anything, suddenly showed a strange smile, like a clown, mocking the monarch in front of him.

"That's your Admiral talent?" Ji Qi laughed heartily, laughing like a madman. Then, like a machine without energy, he stopped laughing and slowly stood up, his expression becoming cold, and he said coldly, as if mocking. "I thought you were capable of anything? So that's what you're relying on? It's ridiculous! He turned sideways and picked up the command knife on the table behind him, precious and gorgeous, like a dragon-slaying knife, ready to pull the god off the platform.

He grasped the hilt of the sword in one hand and the scabbard in the other, and slowly drew the long sword. The cold light burst out of the sheath little by little, like a cold light, which looked extremely cold in the warm sunlight, and there was a trace of coldness, like his pupils, completely frozen, and he couldn't see the slightest emotion. "It seems that you still don't know what is called NO.1 and what is called first!"

"Impossible! It can't be like this! It can't be! Scar began to panic, and he shouted frantically, like a king about to abdicate, clutching the dragon chair beside him and trembling. He had never seen such a monster, and in the stagnant time and space, he could still talk and laugh with himself like ordinary people, and he could still have the power to fight back. It was like a miracle against science, like a heavy hammer, one after another, shattering his cognition. In his memory, no one can break free from the shackles of time, no matter how agile the enemy is, in his realm, it will be like a quagmire, unable to move an inch, and then let him slaughter, every time it is tried and tested. However, this time it was not, the other party was not a human, but a monster with incomprehensible common sense, and he looked at the smiling young man in horror as if he had seen a demon.
