Chapter Eighty-Four: Ryūhuo
Elder Diao knew that Master Gu had misunderstood her, but at this time, she couldn't say her guess: the martial arts in that booklet had been secretly practiced by her alone, and her body didn't react at all, but if she paid attention to and carefully pondered those movements, and connected them all, she could see that it was even more bewitching and hot than the dancing posture of the Qinglou dancer, which made her doubt the authenticity of the cheats.
But now if she says this, Lord Qian's first reaction is that she thinks she is lying, and she must think that she didn't come up with the real thing, and even the head of the house who just wants to calm things down won't believe her.
In this way, she is crotch slime - not and is.
So she chose silence in the end.
Jian Nian was very dissatisfied with her hesitation, snorted lightly, took the booklet, stacked the two books, and quickly flipped through them together.
The booklet is full of pictures and texts, and the paper is indeed a paper that has been around for a long time.
She nodded with satisfaction: "Master Gu is acting briskly and very well." In the future, as long as I am in office, the head of the Tiger City jurisdiction will walk freely, and no one will disturb the Yang Jiamen. ”
At this time, she also understood the intention of Gu Zhangmen, but it was just to maintain that little bit of self-esteem and face, since this was the case, then give her a little reward.
This can be regarded as a promise and reward given to her, Gu Zhangmen hurriedly said: "Thank you, Lord City Lord!" Greetings, adults! ”
Jian Nian got what he wanted, and he didn't stay long. When they descended the mountain, the officials opened the way in front and followed behind.
However, when she walked to Lu Qi's side, she suddenly stopped and grabbed Lu Qi's fan.
Lu Qi looked inexplicable: "Lord Qian, this is ...... What's wrong? ”
She looked at the fan in her hand, and then at the face that was as black as a donkey's: "Could it be that Lord Fei Jian likes to play this fan?" ”
Seeing that Jian Nian didn't speak, he generously sent the fan to her hand: "This weather is really hot enough, since the adults like it, give it to the adults on the road to worry about the wind, such a worthless fan, there is still a thing below, Lord Jian doesn't have to be polite." ”
Jian Nian stared at her, flipped the folding fan in his hand and looked at it, and saw that it was indeed an ordinary bamboo paper fan, so he returned it to her: "No need, keep it for yourself!" ”
Lu Qi showed a look of disappointment on his face, as if he was a little discouraged because he was not favored by the city lord.
Jian Nian was about to leave, but he paused again, looked at Xiao Ying and said as if chatting: "What weapon does Young Master Xiao use?" ”
"Me?" Xiao Ying was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile, "Xiao Ying is a businessman, he learns all about business, and he also pays attention to harmony and wealth, and he has never played any weapons when he is so big." However, my wife said that I often walked outside, and it was inevitable that I would encounter danger, so she forced me to practice some fist and foot kung fu and light skills, and then carry a dagger with me when I went out. Don't laugh at it, light work on that thing for me, hehe, it's purely for escape! ”
Jian Nian nodded: "That's enough." ”
Xiao Ying smiled slightly, and waited for her to leave, before she and Lu Qi quietly exchanged glances.
After Jian Nian left, the head of Gu said to Chu Han: "Young Master Chu, as the saying goes, there is no end to retribution for wrongs, Gu Mou proposed, let's settle all the grievances at once today, how about it?" ”
Chu Han said lightly: "What's the matter?" ”
Gu Zhangmen said: "Young Master Chu is a smart person, I don't say that you also know that right and wrong in the rivers and lakes are sometimes difficult to distinguish. If the grudge accumulates for a long time, it will be entangled in the mutual attack and attack like twisted twist, even if it is pointless to find out who is right and who is wrong. ”
Chu Han didn't say anything on his face, but nodded in his heart, on this point, Gu Zhangmen's point of view was the same as his own.
Gu Zhangmen continued: "This matter is all because of cheats, everyone has their own position, Xiaomei did it at the beginning, naturally she has her own reasons, and you also have reasons for doing that for the sake of the Nightless Immortal Palace, there is no absolute who is right and who is wrong in this matter." If you really want to divide right and wrong, you can only say that both sides are right and wrong, I don't know if Young Master Chu agrees? ”
"What you say sounds reasonable, as if you can write it off directly." Chu Han said lightly, "But Master Gu ignored one point, Xuanyue attracted wicked people because she did good deeds, and then attracted more people who coveted the cheats, and all the casualties and losses were innocent, not because they did evil and took the blame for themselves." Money is something outside the body, not to mention the loss for the time being, just say that those dozen lives, if they can't get justice for them, who would dare to go to the Nightless Immortal Palace to apply for a position? When will Xuan Yue's guilt for them be a little lighter? ”
"Young Master Chu, you have killed five Earth Illusions by you, including four elders. You should know how difficult it is for a small sect like us to cultivate Earth Illusion masters, and they have all cultivated to Earth Illusion until they are dozens of years old. Although the number of guards and your dozen or so guards is not equal in numbers, in terms of value, the Yang Jiamen has lost more. ”
Chu Han said coldly: "It seems that Master Gu is not sincere, so let's speak with strength." ”
"No, no, no," Gu Zhangmen waved his hand again and again, "Young Master Chu has misunderstood what he meant." Young Master Chu can even defeat the middle spirit martial artist, and he will definitely be able to see that the martial arts below are only at the high level of the Earth Illusion, and they are not your opponents at all, so how can they hit the stone with an egg? ”
"Not necessarily." Chu Han glanced at the foreign young man lightly, "Didn't Master Gu ask for help?" ”
The young man smiled enchantingly, and even his eyes were shining: "Young Master Chu really misunderstood this time, Liuhuo is only a peacemaker, and he won't help fight!" Since the head of Gu said that it is better to settle the grievances than to settle them, he must be sincere. ”
Everyone secretly said, it turned out that his name was Liuhuo.
Chu Han said lightly: "I didn't hear it." ”
Liuhuo said: "Master Gu, it is meaningless to state the facts, what Chu Shao mainly looks at is your sincerity of reconciliation, you should show your sincerity first." ”
Gu Zhangmen nodded: "Young Master Chu, there are wrongs, there are debtors, the elders are dead, if you still want to take revenge in the way of one life for one life, it is just killing the innocent people of Yang Jiamen and others."
They didn't participate in it, and they didn't know about it, not to mention that they didn't even break through the Earth Illusion, so there was really little point in killing them.
The dozen or so guards are dead, and even if they kill all these innocents, they will not be able to return, while their families will have to face their lives.
It's not as good as this, the losses suffered by the Nightless Immortal Palace will be compensated by our Yang Jiamen, and the families of the dead guards, we will send 100,000 taels of silver to each household, so that they can live a good life. What do you think? ”
"One hundred thousand taels?" Qianruo looked disdainful.
One hundred thousand taels is indeed a lot for ordinary martial artists, especially ordinary people, it is simply an astronomical amount.
But for him, who is in charge of the property, the young master will soon have tens of millions of taels of silver, and 100,000 taels is really a drizzle.
100,000 taels is less? Gu Zhangmen seemed to be stunned, if he bought a murderer, one hundred thousand taels could buy the lives of two first-level martial artists.
Liuhuo said: "Master Gu, it is impossible for Young Master Chu to do everything himself, and many things also require his subordinates to run errands, so you also have to show some intentions." I think so, plus the compensation for the damage to the Nightless Immortal Palace, you can take five million taels out. ”
Speaking of this, he turned to Chu Han: "What does Young Master Chu think?" ”
"Five, five million taels?" Elder Diao next to him exclaimed.
Qian Ruo snorted coldly: "Is five million taels more?" Which item in the Nightless Immortal Palace is not priceless? You go and look at the account books of the Nightless Immortal Palace, it cost nearly three million taels to repair and rebuy items! According to Gu Zhangmen's statement of doubling the compensation, this alone is six million taels. Coupled with the life money of the guards, it will cost at least eight million taels! ”
This...... Elder Diao looked at Master Gu, and said in his heart, why do you want to say double the compensation!
Gu Zhangmen asked, "How much money is in the account?"
Elder Diao had a bitter face: "There are only three million and five hundred and eighty thousand taels in the entire account. ”
Even Elder Jia was beaten down, and she also knew that there was really no one in the Yang Jiamen now, so she could only take money to eliminate the disaster and survive this catastrophe safely.
"So little?" Gu Zhangmen frowned, thought for a while, and said, "Young Master Chu, you see that this is good, these three million and a half million taels are not cash silver, if it is too late today, we will go to Qianzhuang tomorrow morning to withdraw it and send it to the Nightless Immortal Palace." With the rest of the money, how about I sell some things of a little more value in two days? ”
Liuhuo said: "If it's not enough, I still have some silver tickets here, and I'll give you some money first." ”
When it comes to money, Qianruo said, "What do we believe in you?" ”
Gu Zhangmen said with a smile: "Yangjia Mountain is here, we can't run away without a trace overnight for five million taels of silver." What's more, Young Master Chu is strong in martial arts, if he is caught up, he will definitely not show mercy to his subordinates, wouldn't he save their lives in vain? ”
Qianruo wanted to say more, Chu Han raised his hand to stop him, and said briefly: "Okay." ”
It's not a matter of believing or not, but Gu Zhangmen can see and explain one thing clearly, that is, the issue of strength.
If they dare to throw away their nest and run away at night, they will definitely chase and slaughter without leaking.
What's more, she has a feeling that Gu Zhangmen will not only not leave, but will stick here.
Although the foreign young man was well disguised, she could know through the subtle observation in the Speculum Mirror that he was desperately hoping that this matter would be resolved quickly, and then watch everyone leave Yangjia Mountain.
And after she said the word "good", she saw that Gu Zhangmen and Liuhuo breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Obviously, the things that money can solve are not things, the important thing is ~~ The eyes in the voyeur mirror method are set on the entrance of the cave, what is there in this cave house that makes the two of them so nervous?
"However," Chu Han looked at Elder Diao, "For the direct murderer who killed in the Nightless Immortal Palace, he must die!" ”
Faced with the threat to his life, Elder Diao was a little panicked, and hurriedly looked at Gu Zhangmen for help: "Master! ”
Gu Zhangmen said: "She is the only elder in the door, can Young Master Chu sell a thin noodle and leave her a cheap life?" ”
Chu Han ignored it, and Qian Ruo snorted coldly again.
In order to take care of the overall situation, Gu Zhangmen gritted his teeth: "Elder Diao, are you self-judged, or do you do it yourself?" ”
"Master!" I didn't expect to be given up so easily, Elder Diao shouted.
