This group of heretical traitors led by the torture technique would not be stupid enough to really think that the royal family would give 100 million. Is it really as Yin Wanmeng said, deliberately opening up a bargaining space?

Yin Wanmeng looked at the others and guessed: "Could it be that they are for the fragment page, so that they can follow the clues of the fragment page to find the whole "Kyushu Ten Thousand Beasts Map"?" ”

Wei Chiran raised his eyes and looked at Yin Wanmeng: "But why are they looking for the "Kyushu Ten Thousand Beasts Map"? ”

"Maybe they're also going for Tang Qianlin, right?" The falcon in Wei Chiran's mind said, "He Luo said that the task of the Shaman Spirit Palace back then was one of the tasks that came out, that is, to capture a thousand forests, there is no doubt that the "Kyushu Ten Thousand Beasts Map" should also be in his hands. ”

These words reminded Wei Chiran, and Wei Chiran suddenly thought of it, he got up and walked around, and then turned to look at everyone: "The target is not the "Kyushu Ten Thousand Beasts Map", but Tang Qianlin. ”

Hou Wandao: "Go on." ”

Wei Chiran said: "Tang Qianlin left the Shaman Spirit Palace alive back then, because he was the only one who survived, so the Lone Army naturally set his eyes on him, but I don't know for what reason, the Lone Army has not obtained anything from Tang Qianlin, or they have lost Tang Qianlin's whereabouts, but they have not given up tracking Tang Qianlin, Tang Qianlin also knows this, maybe he found something from the Shaman Spirit Palace, so, after a few decades, in order to get rid of the tracking of the Lone Army, let Zemo forge a page of "Kyushu Ten Thousand Beasts Map" , attracting the attention of the Northeast Division of the Lone Army. ”

Hou Wan continued: "At that time, in order to hide people's eyes, the order given to the lower-level disciples was to find the "Kyushu Ten Thousand Beasts Map", not Tang Qianlin. Because the lone army knew that the "Kyushu Ten Thousand Beasts Map" was on Tang Qianlin, finding the atlas was equivalent to finding Tang Qianlin, and Tang Qianlin used this as bait to find out the location of the branch, and then broke it down. ”

Chu Xia frowned and said, "It sounds like Tang Qianlin's purpose seems to be to eradicate the lone army?" ”

Yin Wanmeng said: "Who in the world has such great ability? Even we don't know the specific number of people in the lone army, the specific location of each branch, this kind of thing, even if other sects of the different sects work together to do it, it may not be possible, Tang Qianlin is only one person, how did he do it? ”

Wei Chi sat down slowly: "Remember? He Luo said that when he first went to the Shaman Spirit Palace, there were people from the lonely army and Tang Qianlin, I think, what should have happened at that time, which caused Tang Qianlin to have a grudge with the lonely army, Tang Qianlin even knew that the capture was born from the lonely army, he may not want to eradicate the lonely army, but wanted to tell the lonely army, don't send people to his side, that is, the northeast, come one and he will remove one, and the purpose of the fragment is also to warn. ”

So, what really happened at that time?

Why did Tang Qianlin come back alive after entering the Shaman Spirit Palace, and there would be no changes? Decades later, it was possible to set up a bureau to get rid of the people from the three branches of the Northeast Army, and it felt like Tang Qianlin had become a person similar to Fang Xunyi.

Hou Wan finally reported the situation to Heluo, but Heluo's reply was surprising: "If you can confirm the safety of His Highness Songmeng, it is good to discuss it with 100 million." ”

Hou Wan heard that the phone almost slipped to the ground, he slowly turned his head to look at the others, and then said into the phone: "You mean, if His Highness Songmeng is still alive, he will consider paying the kidnappers 100 million?" ”

Hou Wan's words were deliberately said to Wei Chiran and others, and after he finished speaking, Wei Chiran, Chu Xia and Yin Wanmeng were also stunned and stunned on the spot.

That's a billion!

He Luo said: "Yes, you can consider it." ”

Hou Wan hurriedly said: "The crown prince can't come up with this money, even if he comes up with it, for what reason?" You need a reason for bank transfers, right? That's a hundred million, such a large amount of money, the bank's anti-money laundering department will be targeted, and the regulatory department will not let it go. ”

He Luo said slowly: "Who told you to go to the bank?" You first confirm the safety of His Highness Songmeng. ”

Not long after Hou Wan hung up the phone, the phone in the room rang, and Wei Chiran, who was still surprised, picked up the phone, but heard Xie Meng say on the other end: "Wei Chiran, they promised to let you watch Songmeng on video in real time, and I will come to the room where you are later." ”

Wei Chi hung up the phone and said, "They agreed to let us see His Highness Songmeng on video in real time." ”

Chu Xia wondered: "Heluo really agreed to pay 100 million?" ”

Hou Wan nodded slightly: "Yes, but he said that it wasn't cash, so what would it be used?" What is worth 100 million? ”

None of them knew what Heluo was thinking, and the most important thing at the moment was to make sure that His Highness Songmeng was safe first.

An hour later, there was finally a knock on the door of the room.

Standing at the door in early summer, looking at Xie Meng standing outside the door through the cat's eyes, he opened the door after Hou Wan nodded.

After Xie Meng entered the house, he was not polite, he directly took out his mobile phone and connected the video on the side of the torture.

After the video screen appeared, Hou Wan and others saw Songmeng who was locked in an iron cage.

Songmeng's complexion looks good, not haggard, still full of stubbornness, looking at the phone viciously, but it should be looking at the person holding the phone.

Immediately after, the phone is switched to the front-facing camera, and the torture technique wearing glasses appears in the frame.

Hou Wan looked at his phone and said, "One hundred million is good to discuss." ”

The torture technique smiled, and said with a smile: "It seems that this highness is really important to you." ”

Hou Wan said word by word: "Yes, it is very important, when will the hostages be released?" ”

Xingshu shook his head slightly and said, "It's not you who negotiated like this, you should show a little sincerity first." ”

Hou Wan raised his hand to signal, and Yin Wanmeng handed him the flat box.

Hou Wan put the flat box in front of the camera and said, "The scrap you want is here, I can give it to Boss Xie first." ”

The torture technique in the video lifted his glasses and said: "Xie Meng is not our person, you can't hand it over to her, and besides, I am also a trustworthy person, you will first put one million on my designated account, and then hand over the fragment to me tonight, Xie Meng will tell you the details." ”

After turning off the video after the torture was finished, Hou Wan immediately looked at Xie Meng and said, "Where are you trading tonight?" ”

Xie Meng said: "Let's transfer money first, this is the account number." ”

Xie Meng took out a note, took it and looked at it in early summer, the account number on it was written in the name of a woman, and the opening bank was a bank in Southeast Asia.

Seeing this, Chu Xia felt that PW could track down the account, so he transferred it first according to Hou Wan's instructions.

After finishing the operation on the computer in early summer, Hou Wan turned the laptop screen and said, "It's done." ”

Xie Meng said, "Wait a minute. ”

Xie Meng turned around and made a phone call in the corner, and after less than a minute, he turned around and said, "Tonight's trading place is in the underworld." ”

Wei Chiran interrupted her: "What handle do you have in their hands?" ”

Xie Meng didn't answer, but said: "At ten o'clock tonight, I will come to the hotel to pick you up and take you to the underworld, you can prepare some cash if you can, or prepare something that can be sold, after all, rules are rules, and the underworld is not a tourist attraction for sightseeing." ”

Wei Chiran said: "They have prepared an account in Southeast Asia, obviously to test us, if we track down or investigate the owner of the account, they will immediately know, and then we will be empty." ”

Xie Meng hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "You can't fight them, whether you are PW or sewing a thousand corpses, you will definitely not be able to fight them, you have also seen the ability of torture, there are more than four of them at all." ”

Xie Meng's words undoubtedly told Yu Chiran and the others that there was a huge organization behind the torture and others, and the ability of the organization was far above PW and the Heterodox sect.

Of course, this may also be Xie Meng's conjecture, after all, she doesn't know what PW's strength is, and modern heretics are almost like a plate of scattered sand, and it is difficult to gather, so she naturally thinks that the various sects and factions of the heretics have died in name only.

Wei Chiran asked, "Boss Xie, how likely do you think it is that we will rescue Songmeng?" ”

Xie Meng said: "Don't you think it's strange? They asked for 100 million. ”

Hou Wandao: "Of course. ”

Xie Meng said: "Plus they want that fragment, so I think they may not want money, but something else." ”

Hou Wan asked, "What exactly do they want?" ”

Xie Meng said: "It should be a strange beast." ”

Wei Chiran asked, "Are you referring to those strange creatures recorded in the "Kyushu Ten Thousand Beasts Map"? ”

Xie Meng nodded and said: "Yes, although I inherited the mantle of my father's chaser of cargo chaser, I have been interested in monsters since I was a child, after knowing the existence of the "Kyushu Ten Thousand Beasts Map", I firmly believe that there must be rare beasts in this world, and other chasers are asking for rare beasts, and I am asking for exotic beasts, which is why His Royal Highness Songmeng was so happy when he came to me with that fragment." ”

Xie Meng also told Wei Chiran and the others that a few years ago, a group of people who specialized in buying and selling foreign beasts appeared in the underworld, and she had tried to contact these people but failed.

Wei Chi Ran understood: "You want to tell us, you speculate that the torture quartet is very likely to be this group of people who resell foreign beasts?" ”

Xie Meng said: "This is just my speculation, as for whether it is specific or not, we may be able to see tonight." ”

After Xie Meng finished speaking, he was leaving, and before leaving, he reminded Wei Chiran and the others that they should not bring any weapons to the Underworld, not even fruit knives, after all, the group of apostles guarding the Underworld City were not easy to mess with.

After Xie Meng left, Wei Chiran asked, "Who is the Apostle of the Underworld?" ”

Hou Wandao: "It is the person who maintains law and order in the underworld." ”

Wei Chiran carefully recalled: "When I first went to the Underworld, I didn't seem to see any apostles? ”

Hou Wan explained: "The underworld at home and abroad is not the same, the domestic underworld is buying and selling rare treasures, and in the underworld of the Southeast Asian generation, it should be called the black market more appropriately, but it borrows the name of the heteropathic underworld, although there are also pagan people, but in fact, everyone is mixed in it." ”

Wei Chiran said: "So, there shouldn't be any problem for us to go to the Underworld tonight, right?" ”

Hou Wan frowned: "It stands to reason that the underworld in the past is not something that can be gone casually, someone must guide the way, Xie Meng can guarantee that she should be a foreign businessman." ”

Since ancient times, businessmen have been collectively referred to as merchants, those who walk and sell are merchants, and those who have a fixed residence to sell are called Jia, both of which are engaged in ordinary business, selling various items that the people need daily.

But there is also a kind of strange business called foreign business, which is better to say that it is a person who does a different kind of business, but in the rivers and lakes, this kind of foreign business is specialized in selling some strange things that ordinary people do not use and will not be interested in at all, and strange beasts are one of them.
