Although Mo Shihuan was the first time to see the shopkeeper of the Xu family's money house, he was dressed in jewels and looked like an upstart, but it did not prevent Mo Shihuan from doubting him and doubting whether what he said was true or false.

"As far as I know, the people who can run the money village are all with backgrounds and connections, the shopkeeper, you have opened a store here for seven or eight years, and I am afraid that there is a lot of news under your hands, but you don't know the thunderous Pei Gu? I know the rumors. ”

"What rumors?" The fat shopkeeper secretly wiped a drop of sweat and asked, his fat hands unconsciously pinched his sleeves, as serious as being tortured.

"It is rumored that the jade pendant that Pei left to his two sons has two purposes, one is for the safety of his two sons and can save his life at a critical moment, and the other is that the jade pendant is said to be the key to open the treasure chest, and he is leaving a way back for his son." Zhuo Chen said word by word.

He didn't let go of any detail of the fat shopkeeper's movements, and like Mo Shihuan, he also felt that this shopkeeper was a little strange, but he didn't rely on intuition, but on judgment.

"You also said it, guest officer, this is a rumor, whether it is true or not remains to be verified, in recent years, there have often been rumors mentioning treasure maps, if you want me to say, people just want to get something for nothing, have fun, and it should not be true." The fat shopkeeper suddenly shook his head and smiled.

"Oh, is it? I think that rumors are usually not groundless, and there is always a source, otherwise, why don't others say that it is the Li family, the Zhang family, and the Wang family, instead of putting it on the head of the Pei family? Zhuo Chen asked sharply.

"This ......" The fat shopkeeper was asked, he was a little stunned for a while, he didn't know how to answer, he thought of something, and suddenly realized that he patted his head, and the fat on his face trembled, "Look at me, it's really careless." ”

The fat shopkeeper picked up the teapot in front of him with a smile, and said as he walked inside, "The little one has talked so much to the guest officers, and he hasn't made tea for the two yet, the two guest officers look extraordinary, and the little one doesn't dare to slack off." Liu Quan? He shouted inside.

"Hey! Shopkeeper, what do you command? Out of the middle came a man with a towel on his shoulder, a brush and an account book in his hand, thin and not tall, but a pair of shrewd eyes.

"You can greet me and I'll make tea for you." The fat shopkeeper said, and then thought of something and said, "There are too many people who come to the money bank today, and our silver tickets haven't had time to be printed, so I'm afraid that someone will look at it, so you can take a few more people to guard outside." ”

After speaking, the fat shopkeeper was silent. Only the sound of boiling water was faintly heard, and Liu Quan's men were full of smiles, and a few fat and strong men were called out to guard the door.

Mo Shihuan felt that something was wrong, Zhuo Chen also felt this way, and was hesitating whether to leave first, Liu Quan seemed to sense their thoughts, glanced at the man outside the door, and suddenly "bang", the door of the money village was closed.

Mo Shihuan and Zhuo Chen turned their heads to look at the past almost instantly, and several men locked the door behind them, and blocked the door, at this time, the fat shopkeeper came out of it pretending to be, and there was any tea in his hand.

"What do you mean, shopkeeper?" Mo Shihuan's face suddenly turned cold, she didn't feel that she had a grudge against this shopkeeper, before this, the two sides didn't know each other at all.

The men were about to surround Mo Shihuan and Zhuo Chen, but they were stopped by the fat shopkeeper raising his hand, Liu Quan was very good at looking at the eyes, and took the man to stand aside without squeaking.

"Two guest officers, I have no malicious intent, but I need to find out your identity, and you have to inquire about the reason for the Pei family, if the two of you can't tell the reason, then don't blame me for being unkind." The fat shopkeeper's face changed quickly, and the fat man with a kind face was completely different from this person with a fierce face.

Mo Shihuan and Zhuo Chen glanced at each other, Zhuo Chen was very calm, "We just had a good time, and we came to inquire when we heard about it by chance, the shopkeeper is like this, I'm afraid it's a bit too much, isn't it, the shopkeeper is also very interested in the treasure map?" ”

Zhuo Chen deliberately diverted his attention, and the fat shopkeeper was really fooled. "Hmph, the treasure map is like a chicken rib to me, I own the money bank, I don't worry about food and clothing in this life, I only worry about people dying and the money can't be spent. But—"

Mo Shihuan, who was twitched by the corners of his mouth, continued: "But what? "She's seen the arrogant nouveau riche, and this fat shopkeeper has a fight.

"But I don't believe you're just by chance, say! Why the hell are you asking about the Pei family! How did you find me? The fat shopkeeper snapped. He took out a delicate and sharp dagger directly from his sleeve and rested it on Zhuo Chen's neck.

"Hey! How daring! Do you know who is standing in front of you?! How dare you hold him hostage! He is the Liang King of Dayue Kingdom! How dare you hurt him? Unless it's dead, punish the nine clans! ”

Mo Shihuan knew that the sword had no eyes, and Zhuo Chen's slender jade-white neck was not for giving people a knife! She only felt very dazzling when she looked at it, and immediately revealed the identities of the two and scolded.

The fat shopkeeper's hand shook, and he immediately held the dagger steady, and said with a sneer, "King Liang? It's really powerful, but King Liang is just a sick man, not valued by the emperor, and everyone in the world knows about it, besides, even if I kill you all today, who can know that it was killed by me? ”

The fat shopkeeper had a fearless appearance, which gave Mo Shihuan a headache, and he only felt that things were quite tricky, "The people knew before we left the house, if we don't go back to the house for a long time, guess they'll find it here?" ”

"It's a big deal that I'm running away, I've saved enough money in my life. At the ends of the earth, no one can catch me. The fat shopkeeper said stiffly.

"Then you are very wrong, no matter what the current situation is, King Liang is always the emperor's son, the dignified son was assassinated, do you think it is because of the face of the royal family, will you not be held accountable to the end?" Mo Shihuan asked.

The fat shopkeeper was a little convinced, and soon, after hesitating for a while, he relieved himself and said: "Don't hide it from the two, I am also entrusted by others, if you meet someone who inquires about the clues of the Pei family, you must find a way to stop them, if necessary, cut the grass and eradicate the roots." ”

"Trusted? Who is that man? Pei's family? Zhuo Chen only spoke at this time, and his appearance was calm and calm, as if the person who was holding the dagger around his neck was not him.

Even Mo Shihuan admired his mentality, he really had an incomparably strong heart, and if he replaced her, he would have been scared and weak, where could he still speak!
