Xiao family.

On the table made of fine mahogany, Xiao Zhan was lying on the side flipping through a thick book, and as he browsed more and more, his anxious eyes became more and more solemn.

Rubbing the bridge of his nose a few times, Xiao Zhan closed his eyes tightly, the fine lines on his face deepened a little under the huge pressure, and his face became extremely pale due to exhaustion.

Suddenly, a soft footstep walked in and slowly approached him.

Xiao Zhan tilted his head slightly and said, "It's Yan'er!" ”

"Father!" Hearing Xiao Zhan's weak voice, Xiao Yan felt sad for a while, the Xiao family had suffered such a drastic change, wasn't the worst and most painful thing about him, the patriarch?

"Father, what's going on with the money?" Xiao Yan walked to Xiao Zhan's side in a few steps, and put his palm on the other party's curved back.

"Alas!" Xiao Zhan had a headache when he heard this, he reached out and patted his forehead, shaking his head vigorously a few times.

Xiao Yan's expression moved when he saw this, and asked, "Didn't you say that you would borrow some from those former partners?" ”

Xiao Zhan glanced up at Xiao Yan, and his gaze quickly dimmed.

"Yan'er, you have to know. In this world, there are often things that are icing on the cake, but it is rare to send charcoal in the snow. Those merchants have a good relationship with our Xiao family on weekdays, but when we are in danger, it is even more difficult to borrow money from them than to ascend to the sky!

Although I used all my connections and got a sum of money, if I want to completely make up for the loopholes of the Xiao family today, I still need at least 500,000 gold coins.

500,000 yuan, even if we take out all the funds of our families, it is not easy to get them together! ”

"Father! Don't worry, you can use this money first, and then I will have a way. ”

Xiao Yan handed over the green jade card he had just gotten from Concubine Ya today.

Taking the jade card in Xiao Yan's hand, Xiao Zhan was obviously stunned for a few seconds, and after using his fighting spirit to check the amount inside, he immediately showed a happy face, because this inconspicuous card actually contained 500,000 gold coins.

And with this money, the crisis of the Xiao family was solved.

"Yan'er, how did you get this money?" Xiao Zhan asked in surprise.

With a strange color fluttering in his eyes, Xiao Yan explained: "Father, I guess you can also guess that your son has encountered some chances. ”

"Hmm!" Xiao Zhan nodded, the exquisite sword and that special high-level fighting technique he still remembered vividly.

"Could it be that this money is also your chance?"

"Not bad! My son found a treasure of a strong man in the Yuzhuang Mountains this time, so he used these things, you can use them with confidence! ”

Xiao Yan said with a smile. Neither the women's clothing nor the system could be exposed, and he needed a reason to explain it all.

"The treasure of the strong?" Xiao Zhan thought for a moment, and then his eyes lit up. "I've long heard that there are strong people in the Yuzhuang Mountain Range, but I didn't expect to be bumped into by you!"

"Hahaha...... My son is really blessed and shining, God bless my Xiao family! Xiao Zhan did not doubt him, stared at Xiao Yan excitedly, and smiled happily.

……

In a small building in Utan City.

A short, stocky old man with a red face pushed the door open, looked around the room, and when he saw that there was no one around, he sat down on a chair angrily, and a trace of displeasure crossed his face.

"This old thing, begging me to do something is still slowly swallowing!"

"Brother Guni, it seems that you are not much younger than me!"

Hearing the sound coming from behind the screen, Gu Ni's pupils shrank suddenly, and he stood up suddenly, only then did he notice a dark shadow on the screen through the light.

The black shadow was moving slowly on the screen, and finally from the side stepped out a dusty gray-robed man, revealing half of his face under the gray robe, and a pair of eagle-like eyes shining in the darkness.

"Brother Tuli, it turns out that you have already arrived, hurry up, please take a seat! It's been a long time since we've seen two old friends. As soon as Guni saw this man, he immediately met a smiling face and beckoned Tuli to sit down beside him.

In the face of Gu Ni's excessive enthusiasm, Tuli didn't seem to be cold, threw off his robe and sat down, staring at Gu Ni intently.

Being stared at by the other party like this, Gu Ni knew that the other party was not in the mood to reminisce about the past, so he didn't talk nonsense, took out a portrait from the ring, and handed it over.

After receiving the portrait, Tuli seemed to be beaten with chicken blood as soon as he was angry, and his expression became extremely excited, and he couldn't wait to open the portrait, but when he saw the strange bewitching and beautiful girl in the painting, his face quickly became gloomy again.

"This ...... It's not a little medicine fairy! ”

"You gave me the portrait of the little medicine fairy, I naturally know that this woman is not a little medicine fairy!" "But it's suspicious to be able to take out so many magic cores! ”

"The words of the demon core may just be a coincidence, do you have any other clues?" Tuli asked emotionlessly.

Gu Ni recalled for a moment, and then said: "I don't know if Lieyang Steel counts?" ”

"Sun Steel?" Hearing this, Tu Li was immediately shocked, and said sharply, "In order to get that piece of Burning Sun Steel, I used to kill all the other people in the team, but then because I haven't found a suitable refiner, I have been shelving it in the treasure house, and now I have cheapened that woman." ”

"It seems that this woman should have nothing to do with your wolf-headed mercenary group!" Gu Ni nodded solemnly.

Tearing the portrait to pieces like a hungry tiger tearing at it, he stood up like a fierce lion, with a murderous intent in his eyes.

"Where is she?"

"I don't know." Guni turned his head and replied indifferently.

"Don't know?" The muscles on Tuli's face twitched visibly, "Guni, you're kidding me!" ”

"Oh, Brother Tuli, how dare I fool you, you know, we don't have a reason to track customers when we open an auction house, and I can't help it!"

Gu Ni waved his hand helplessly, looking at the Tuli who was about to break out, and hurriedly changed his words, "But don't worry too much, three days later, this woman will come to our auction house to get the auction money of Lieyang Steel, and I will use some means on the jade card, and then you can naturally follow her and wipe out all the enemies!" ”

"That's pretty much it!" Tu Li's face looked a little better, and he looked at Gu Ni and said: "But they can actually kill my wolf-headed mercenary group without leaving a piece of armor, and I don't know if there are any strong fighters, if only I could find a helper." ”

Gu Ni chuckled a few times: "Brother Tuli, then you don't have to count on me, the foolish brother now seems to have the cultivation of a great fighter, but he has been pampered in the auction house for a long time, and he has long lost the ruthlessness of fighting back then, so he can't help anymore." ”

"That's it!" There was a chill in Tuli's tone.

"Brother Tuli, there are still some things I need to deal with in the auction hall, so I will retire first!" Guni casually arched her hand at Turi and walked out of the room.

As soon as the door slammed shut, Tuli's face was immediately covered with frost and he smiled coldly.

"Okay, you, a Gu Ni, the brother who licked the knife together at the beginning, and now he doesn't want to see me like this. How many times have I begged you over the years, if I didn't have your handle this time, you probably wouldn't have bothered to help me! ”
