Chapter 30: Ruthless
"I'm a businessman, what do I talk about when I don't talk about business?
Liu Tong looked at Zheng Xie with a smile and said such a thing.
Zheng Xie sneered and said:
"This ...... And so it is. β
Liu Tong's fingers tapped on the table, and he said with deep meaning:
"I Bafang Pavilion is a business in the world, and I also enter the Tao with business, and buying and selling is my way. Even if you call me a senior, I should buy or sell, and I will do everything as usual. β
"Soβwant to buy and want to sell?"
Liu Tong's smile did not change.
Hearing this, Zheng Xie thought for a moment, and put the few dusty stones he had prepared earlier on the table:
"Although I know that my predecessors don't care about this spirit stone, the rules for buying road wealth still can't be broken. β
Liu Tong still had a warm smile on his face, and put away the stones:
"Business is heavy on profit, how can it be despised because of small profit?"
Seeing this situation, Zheng Xie also admired this Liu Tong even more in his heart, admiring him for being so devoted to his own way.
"Don't hide it from my seniors, I want a message. β
After repeated measurements, Zheng Xie finally said this sentence.
Liu Tong said with a smile:
"If you want to buy news, naturally you can, I can buy everything in the Bafang Pavilion, and I can sell everything, as long as you can pay the corresponding price. β
Liu Tong's words are indeed true.
The disciples of the Bafang Pavilion are all over the world, selling everything they can sell. Whether it is a spiritual treasure, a strange thing in heaven and earth, or a piece of news, a clue can be bought and sold.
Zheng Xie was looking for the Netherworld Mansion to buy his life on Daluo Mountain, and it was also because of the Bafang Pavilion secretly maintaining order that this kind of unreasonable transaction could be carried out.
If there is any force in the world that is the most terrifying, I am afraid that it is the Bafang Pavilion everywhere.
Zheng Xie shook his head:
"Senior, I'm not trying to buy news, I'm trying to sell something. β
Liu Tong's eyes flashed with light:
"Sell?"
Zheng Xie smiled freely:
"Exactly. I'm looking for you to sell you a future friendship. β
In an instant, Liu Tong understood what Zheng Xie meant, and his fat face seemed to be smiling:
"Boy, are you trying to use your possible future growth to cheat things from me?
Zheng Xie also smiled:
"Senior Liu, what you said is not right. I escaped from the sacrifice ceremony of the Taiyuan clan, regenerated my spiritual root in the suffering riddled with karma, and bought my life from the Netherworld, and stepped out of my own unique path, this kind of growth value, you will not completely deny it, right?"
Liu Tong smiled noncommittally:
"Even so, I only do business, I don't make bets, which is not in line with my business. β
Hearing this, Zheng Xie suddenly burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at?"
Liu Tong narrowed his eyes.
Zheng Xie smiled and shook his head:
"Senior Liu claims not to enter the gambling game, but he has already entered a game of duplicity, don't you think that the younger generation can't see through it?"
Liu Tong was not annoyed, but showed an interested look:
"Tell me, what game did I get into?"
Zheng Xie restrained his smile and said seriously:
"The predecessors claimed to only do business, but they gave Bai Lao a treasure on credit, no matter what Bai Lao promised to repay, this is what you said before'invisible loss-making business', even if you explain it with Bai Lao's reputation or reputation, it is just a gamble guaranteed by reputation. β
When Liu Tong heard this, his smile was even bigger:
"It's kind of interesting. Boy, if you can move me, I can give you a creation you can't even think of. β
Zheng Xie's eyes lit up and he continued
"The Tao of the predecessors is the Tao of Commerce, but at this time, if my guess is correct, Bai Lao should be bound somewhere by the Taiyuan clan, and if the Taiyuan clan is not over, the business between you and Bai Lao will not be completed for a day, and your Tao will have a defect. β
"But if you admit that I have the qualifications to buy and sell the future, and help me achieve something, then the cause and effect will be fruitful, and if I can really make the Taiyuan clan pay the price in the future, your transaction with Bai Lao will have a chance to be completed, and your Tao will be complete. β
"You've already gambled halfway, so why not gamble again?"
After Zheng Xie finished speaking, he smiled and looked at Liu Tong.
Liu Tongtong's knuckles tapped on the table one by one, but there was a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Zheng Xie was not in a hurry, just sat here like this, waiting for Liu Tong's reply.
"What news do you want?"
Liu Tong suddenly asked.
Zheng Xie smiled:
"Any news that helps me. β
Liu Tong shook his head:
"Like your master, they are all difficult fellows......"
Without waiting for Zheng Xie to respond, Liu Tong threw out a note, and then stretched out his hand, and the four bowls of water on the table disappeared, and at the same time said lazily:
"It's closed!
Zheng Xie was stunned for a moment, took the note, only to see a thin line of words written on it, and when he looked up again, the stall in front of him disappeared without a trace, and even Liu Tong disappeared without a trace.
Bai Wushan was also attracted by the note before, and he also didn't know when the chubby senior left.
Zheng Xie was stunned for a long time, and then looked at the note again.
[Ruthless, affectionate]
Zheng Xie was stunned:
"What the hell?
Bai Wushan also came over and said puzzledly:
"Childe, what does this mean?"
Zheng Xie put away the note expressionlessly:
"I don't know, but I'm pretty sure I'm getting caught. β
......
Nanyuan City is very large, at least much larger than that of Wuyang City, and monks can often be seen on the streets.
Liu Tong, the predecessor of the Bafang Pavilion, would appear in Nanyuan City, which was really unexpected by Zheng Xie, and even the fact that there would be disciples of the Bafang Pavilion in this Nanyuan City was enough to shock Zheng Xie.
Their iconic bamboo sticks, which symbolize the eight directions, and the four bowls of water on the table, which symbolize the four seas, if you are not someone who knows the doorway, I am afraid that you really don't have this fate.
Nanyuan City is still a remote place that belongs to Dongbai, and even the monks of the Qi Sea Realm can only be seen sporadically, Zheng Xie really can't figure out how such a powerful person who can have a relationship with Bai Lao and other characters can appear here.
Of course, these are no longer important, and the only thing that needs to be entangled now is the note that Liu Tong handed over to Zheng Xie.
"What's the Ruthless Man? No, it shouldn't have anything to do with this......
In a restaurant on the corner of the street, Zheng Xie was sitting at the table and meditating, while Bai Wushan was bored playing with the jade engraved with the word "evil" that Zheng Xie had given her.
"Could it be that the old monster who has been dead for hundreds of years? Ruthless Tianzun? No, that's the power of the Western Regions......"
Zheng Xie ate the barbecue in the bowl with some depression, obviously annoyed that Liu Tong had given the message but did not make it clear.
Bai Wushan fiddled with the piece of jade, but was attracted by the noise on the street outside.
β...... Fuck off, old madman!"
"I said fuck off!"
Zheng Xie was frowning and pondering, and at this time, he was also unhappy when he heard these noises, so he turned his head to the restaurant guy who was standing at the door with a gloating face, and asked:
"Brother, what's going on outside?"
The guy smiled:
"What else could it be? Someone hit the muzzle of the gun again. β
Zheng Xie raised his eyebrows:
"How?"
The fellow pointed to the commotion outside, and said with a smile:
"The old man sat outside all day begging for a drink, but he didn't admit that he was a beggar, and if anyone gave him money, he would be mad. β
Zheng Xie looked at it and saw a young man with an unfortunate face being pressed to the ground by a sloppy old man holding his legs, and the old man stuffed a few copper plates into the young man's pocket, and scolded and waved his fist at the young man's body:
"I want you to look down on me!"
"How many times have I said that Lao Tzu is not a beggar!"
"I lack you a few money?!"
The young man didn't seem to have opened up the sea of qi yet, but there was some faint aura on his body, but at this time, he was pressed to the ground by the old man and beaten, making him embarrassed but powerless to struggle.
Zheng Xie's eyes froze:
"That old man has some strength. β
The guy glanced at Zheng Xie with some surprise:
"The guest officer's eyesight is okay! They all said that the old man might be a crazy martial arts master, even a young and strong young man couldn't beat him. β
Zheng Xie was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the guy in front of him still had a perception of this world at the level of a "martial arts master", and he also shook his head and smiled.
The young man finally struggled to escape from the old man's clutches, and his body was covered in dust, so he could only grit his teeth and say a cruel word, and then fled the scene in a hurry.
The old man sneered and rubbed his messy hair:
"Rude boy, see if you dare to look down on people so much in the future!"
After saying that, the old man sat down on the ground on the corner of the street, with a half-empty wine jug beside him, his head drooping, and he really looked like a beggar.
Zheng Xie thought it was funny, and he thought this old man was interesting, so he had a whim, so he threw a few taels of silver to the restaurant guy:
"Please, pour a jug of wine to the old man, and let him come in and talk to me. β
The guy was also stunned for a moment while holding the broken silver, and then said with a strange expression:
"Guest officer, that old man has a strange temper ......"
Zheng Xie smiled:
"It's okay, just go. β
Bai Wushan was also puzzled:
"Childe, this is?"
Zheng Xie smiled slightly, but did not answer.
The guy muttered a few words, but obediently took a pot of wine to the old man on the corner of the street according to Zheng Xie's words, and carefully said something to the old man, and led the old man into the restaurant.
Attracted by this strange sight, some people also stood at the door secretly and watched.
The old man casually pulled a stool from the side and sat down with a big grin, then glanced at Zheng Xie unscrupulously, opened his mouth, and showed a mouthful of good teeth that were actually bright white:
"What is the future life looking for me? I'll say okay first, the old man doesn't accept charity!"
Zheng Xiewaner:
"Old man, why don't you use 'Lao Tzu' and 'Xiao'er' at this time?"
The old man snorted:
"He was rude first, so I don't need to say anything about etiquette. β
Zheng Xie felt more and more interesting about this old man, so he smiled and said:
"Don't worry, old man, I'm not giving alms, I'm just inviting you to chat with a table of wine and food. β
The old man raised his head slightly, and his bright eyes were extraordinary, with unkempt gray hair:
"Well, what do you want to talk about?"
Zheng Xie pondered for a moment, but he had a flash of inspiration and said with a smile:
"Old man, what do you think is a ruthless person?
