49 pull back on
Yonghe, after Wei He asked about himself, he also went to the dart bureau to visit Cheng Zhengxing, who was sick.
It's a pity that he can't help with the dart game.
Cheng Zhengxing is an old man who has been angry and bloody three times, although he is old, his foundation is still there, and his strength is not bad.
This time, even he fell ill three times, and now he can only look at Cheng Shaojiu's methods.
He asked several times in a row, and the answer he got was no problem.
Cheng Shaojiu seems to be sure.
Wei He also let go of his worries a little and continued to devote himself to hunting in the mountains.
He has now stopped the process of condensing the Nine Glows Flower, and the Wuling Palm has also been completed, and the difference is that the Realm Breaking Bead will be completed again.
Sure enough, as he expected, after stopping all the exercises that consumed qi and blood, the speed of qi and blood accumulation far exceeded normal.
At least twice as much as usual.
He could clearly feel that a steady stream of qi and blood was flowing into the Realm Breaking Bead, being absorbed, integrated, and stored by it.
Two days later.
Wei He came back from the mountain, but he found nothing on this trip, and he didn't even meet a mountain bandit, which was simply unlucky.
In the past, if you couldn't meet prey, you could grab a few mountain bandits and get some rations or something.
But today I was unlucky, there was really nothing.
Wei He simply rested in the natural residence for a while, and then came back and went to sit in the winery for a while.
The name of the brewery is Hakka Fang, and the name is ordinary with a hint of unusualness.
Although it is a winery, it is actually a teahouse, and there are people who sell themselves to survive from time to time, waiting here for a price.
But in these years, the big guys themselves are just barely fed, and no one has time to take someone back.
Wei He lifted the curtain, and at first glance, he saw a long-haired girl in the corner.
The girl sat on the ground with red and swollen eyes, and although she was only wearing a plain patch gray dress, she could not hide the fine skin and tender flesh, and her eyebrows were picturesque.
The customers on the side changed their usual indifference, but leaned aside and frequently looked at the girl.
But no one opened their mouths to buy people, and the scene was a little cold for a while.
Wei He sat down at an empty table and asked for a pot of tea.
"What do you mean by that girl?" he asked the girl from the brewery who brought the tea.
"A poor man, too. The winery girl sighed.
"Tell me. Wei He said loudly.
The girl in the wine shop looked at Wei He carefully, feeling that he might have the capital to buy it. He also stopped and spoke carefully.
"The girl's name is Shangguan Lin, the family is a scholarly family, and her grandfather used to be an official in the court, but now the family is in the middle of the road, and her parents have offended a steward of the Bloody Clothes Gang, and now the family is ruined.
In desperation, this Shangguan Lin could only come out and sell herself to survive. ”
She sighed.
"Now everyone is afraid to buy it, all because they are afraid of offending the steward of the Bloody Clothes. You must know that the people who can serve as managers in the three major gangs, whether it is their own strength or their subordinate forces, are not ordinary.
In addition, the Bloody Clothes Gang has always been ruthless...... "She didn't finish her words later, but the meaning was obvious.
Although everyone was tempted to take this beautiful girl home, they were all worried about offending the steward of the Bloody Clothes Gang.
Wei He also understands.
The steward of the Bloody Clothes Gang, he had seen it, and when the three gangs and two factions came to woo him before, he was a steward who came.
It's just that the person in charge, that is, the appearance of the second qi and blood, is the same as he is now.
I didn't expect that there was such a big deterrent outside at the level of a steward?
He thought of the Huishan Boxing Academy, several of their core disciples of secondary qi and blood, so horizontally compared, it seems that he is really a character now?
"If the guest officer wants to buy it, it is better to be careful. The steward of the Bloody Clothes Gang didn't even dare to provoke the surrounding Copper Mountain Gang and the Green Wolf Gang. The winery girl kindly reminded her.
"Well, I see, thanks. Wei He smiled back, after all, people are also kind.
But the Copper Mountain Gang, the Green Wolf Gang, this kind of gang has only a dozen or so ordinary people, and it can also have such a great reputation?
Among these two small gangs, the gang leader is a strong man who knows basic boxing skills, breaks through a qi and blood, and gathers a group of bastards with his fierce blood and talent.
Such a small gang will update a batch every once in a while. In this troubled world, like weeds.
However, although Wei He was tempted, he didn't mean to buy it.
What he wants to buy is not this kind of delicate girl, but hopes to find a girl with force to protect his sister.
However, such a person is difficult to find, and he plans to hire a junior sister in the yard when the time comes, or...
A shadow suddenly flashed before his eyes.
It's not time yet. Wei He picked up the teacup and drank it gently.
He came here to collect information about strange beasts, and now that he has been hunting for a long time, he also has a lot of experience, and he can try to attack foreign beasts.
The previous dart, in the night at the bridgehead, the black madman he met still impressed him to this day.
So in case of accidents, he plans to be fully prepared and gather enough information before trying to do it.
After sitting for a while, there was still no clue about the alien beast today, Wei He got up after drinking tea, lifted the curtain and walked out of the wine shop.
Suddenly, he saw Ouyang Zhuang, a newcomer he brought, passing by the street with a handyman.
"Huh, Senior Brother Wei!" Ouyang Zhuang looked at Wei He in surprise. "Didn't you go to Yonghe Dart today?"
"Why are you going today?" Wei He was also surprised.
"Don't you know? There was news from the Yonghe Dart Bureau in the morning that they couldn't afford to pay for the Zhao family's darts in the inner city, and they borrowed money everywhere, but they still lacked seven hundred taels of gold.
If you can't do it now, you can only close the door and close the business and completely collapse. Ouyang Zhuang replied.
"Owe money?700 taels of gold?" Wei was stunned.
It's only seven hundred taels?
He was worried.
"What's wrong, senior brother?" Ouyang Zhuang asked cautiously when he saw that Wei He's face was wrong.
Wei He didn't say a word, turned around and ran back towards his house, he wanted to go back to get the money, and then go to the dart game.
This surnamed Cheng is hypocritical, asked him several times, didn't say it earlier, if he had said earlier that he was only short of this money, he would have directly lent him to tide over the difficulties!
.......
.......
.......
Cheng family, come to the living room.
On a mahogany square table, Cheng Shaojiu and a middle-aged man in a black coat sat opposite each other.
Behind each of them stood a crowd.
One side more, the other less.
Cheng Shaojiu is less behind him.
He put his hand on the table, pressed his fingers on a piece of ephecy paper, and his face was very ugly.
Written on the paper were black and white, exactly about the terms of the mortgage and payout for their last bet.
"Say, today you Yonghe should also give us an explanation. The middle-aged man in the black coat said in a deep voice.
The sunlight in the hall slanted to the ground, reflecting a little dust flying.
"Losing the dart made my Zhao family lose their trust. How to solve it now, should we come up with a charter?"
Silent.
Cheng Shaojiu's lips were chapped and his complexion was dull.
He has been working hard everywhere in the past few days, raising money everywhere, but in the end, he still has five hundred taels of gold left.
This is already his best effort.
"Can't you have a few more days?" he asked in a low voice.
"Grace and grace, Cheng Shaodart, we see that on the basis of previous cooperation, we have been lenient for so many days, and we have done our best. The middle-aged man said coldly.
"Tell me, the final gap, what's wrong with the five hundred taels of gold? If you really can't get it, why don't you just follow my previous suggestion and exchange your silver-beaked black snake cultivation method?"
The people behind Cheng Shaojiu showed depression and indignation.
The storage method of the silver-kissed black snake is worth more than five hundred taels of gold, and the other party is clearly going to take advantage of the fire to rob!
But in the past few days, Cheng Shaojiu and the rest of the people have been borrowing money everywhere, but they can't get together the five hundred taels of gold.
Those friends who talk about generosity on weekdays are now closed one by one.
Don't say five hundred taels, even one tael will not be borrowed.
Now everyone knows that something happened to the Yonghe Dart Bureau, and no one is willing to borrow money, so as not to beat the dog with meat buns, and there is no return.
Now, everyone in the Cheng family probably understands that this is someone who is setting a trap on his family, the purpose of which is to raise the silver-kissed black snake.
Cheng Shaojiu was silent for a long time, although this silver-kissed black snake was the foundation of his Cheng family, it was the foundation that Uncle Cheng Zhengxing finally got back then.
But now in extraordinary times, if you are reluctant to let go of these things outside your body, I am afraid that the whole dart game will not be able to support it.
He sighed inwardly.
"I see.... Okay, I promise, use..."
"Wait!"
Suddenly, there was a low shout.
The man in the black coat opposite raised his hand to stop.
At some point, there was a diminutive dwarf man beside him, and the dwarf man seemed to have just said something to him.
The black coat looked calm and stood up.
"This family has a life, we don't want the silver-kissed black snake, we can't get the money, the Yonghe dart game must be disbanded, and we are not allowed to open a dart game in the outer city!"
He just received the order of the family, and the family secretly reached an agreement with another dart game, as long as they completely forced the Yonghe dart game to death, the price that side would far exceed that of the silver-kissed black snake.
Moreover, as long as the Yonghe dart game is completely down, can the storage method of the silver-kissed black snake still be hidden?
With a little means, it's not all theirs.
"You!" Cheng Shaojiu was shocked and stood up suddenly.
The dart masters behind him also looked angrily.
"What the hell are you...!"
Someone couldn't help but scold, but they were immediately pulled and endured.
"What?" the black coat sneered. "Do you want to beat someone? Do you think it's just your Cheng family? We are the Zhao family of the Seven Family Alliance, just some mud legs from the outer city, try it?"
Cheng Shaojiu looked at the eyes around him that were staring at him and waiting for him.
He raised his hand in silence to stop the agitated crowd behind him.
"Anyway, as long as the people are there, everything is there. ”
He took a deep breath, his voice trembling.
That's right, the silver-beaked black snake is gone, it doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter if the dart game falls.
As long as the person is still there, everything can be restored.
It's just that these words, apart from comforting yourself, can have any effect.
Yonghe Dart Bureau is a dart game of this scale, even if it was Cheng Zhengxing when he was young, he worked hard to compete for the turf market, and finally laid such a big foundation.
Now once it collapses, will people really still be there?
Cheng Shaojiu's hands were trembling slightly.
