Chapter Forty-Nine: Revisiting the Blood Reward Hall
It was already twilight when the two of them arrived at the Blood Reward Hall, but this time it was no longer Qin Bo'an who was entertained at the front desk, nor was he the shopkeeper of that week, but a different person.
"I don't know what the two of you are doing here?" This person is about thirty years old, and he looks extremely strong, and Lone Star glanced at this person's cultivation, which is actually in the early stage of Lingye.
Lone Star was shocked at the moment, this blood reward hall really hides the dragon and crouching tiger, and it is rare to see a few masters in the Lingye period on weekdays, and it is just a reception here.
"Lord Qiqi, I am here for this matter. β
Lone Star said and took out the reward and killing order, and said: "The thief Yue Hao has died at my hands, not only that, but the blood snake village has also been destroyed, but for convenience, I did not cut off their heads, in short, if the adults don't believe it, you can send someone to find out, if I have a lie, let the adults deal with it." β
After the man took the scroll, his face suddenly changed, and he immediately became respectful: "It turned out to be Lord Night, the villain has lost his welcome, forgive his sins." β
"Your Excellency?"
Lone Star was depressed for a while, when did he become an adult in this Blood Reward Hall, and then glanced at Bao Hong, and found that the latter was also confused. Since he couldn't figure it out, Lone Star didn't care about him, but fortunately he complied and said, "What about this blood reward?"
"Don't worry, Lord Qin has already handed over this matter to the villain before leaving. β
The man said, "My lord said that as long as Lord Ye comes, then the task will be completed, and the small one will be paid blood directly." β
"I see, I didn't expect Lord Qin to trust me so much, I was really flattered. β
Lone Star said perfunctorily, but when he saw that the man's face was embarrassed, he couldn't help but ask: "Look at the adult's face, is there something bad about it, and please ask the adult to say that it's okay." β
I saw that the man smiled reluctantly and said: "I can't hide it, as early as three hours ago, our Blood Reward Hall had already learned about the destruction of the Blood Snake Village, and it is really admirable that adults have such merits at such a young age." β
Hearing this, Lone Star shook his head and said: "This is not true, the destruction of the Blood Snake Village is not my credit alone, but thanks to the help of dozens of big brothers, otherwise it will be impossible to do this with the cultivation of the kid." β
"Hehe, don't be modest, if it weren't for the wise command of the adults, what would be the use of our side even if there were twice as many people. β
"Hehe, let's stop this topic for the time being, and ask the adults to tell me about the blood reward as soon as possible. β
Lone Star didn't have the heart to talk to him, so he immediately got straight to the point: "It's not early at this time, we will rush back overnight later, please forgive me." β
"Well, it's easy to say, it's easy to say. β
The man suddenly laughed dryly, took out an abacus and said: "The adult received the original three-level reward killing order to capture that Yue Hao, and the blood reward corresponding to the blood reward is one thousand taels, among which the adult also killed the three village masters, and the blood reward of the three village masters on the list is 30,000 taels, which adds up to 33,000 taels, plus several other village owners in the village, as well as the big and small leaders of all the platoons......"
Later, his hands almost trembled and couldn't hold the abacus, in fact, it was not that he deliberately delayed, but the silver taels left in the hall were not enough to pay at all, it turned out that Lord Qin only prepared three times the blood reward for him before leaving, that is, three thousand taels, plus the silver taels left in the village were only 10,000 taels, who knew that Lone Star was so violent, one person slaughtered the blood snake village clean, this is good, plus the silver taels he carried with him, it was only 13,000 taels, thinking that this person was a character who even his own adults did not dare to offend, he only felt that the sky was about to collapse for a whileγ
And Lone Star was also shocked when he heard the words that came out of his mouth, but he didn't expect that the remuneration of the three village masters alone had reached 30,000 taels, and he immediately asked with a burning look in his eyes: "How much is it in total?"
"Ten...... 100,003 ...... Three thousand taels. The man almost cried out of the number, and his face turned purple.
"One hundred thousand taels!"
At this time, even Bao Hong couldn't keep his composure, and exclaimed: "The salary of a hundred thousand troops for a month is nothing more than that." β
"There are so many. β
Lone Star thought to himself, he was not deeply involved in the world, and he didn't have an accurate concept of the number of 100,000 taels, but now when he saw the man's expression, he was suspicious in his heart at the moment: "What is the difficulty, my lord?"
The man saw that the matter had come to this, so he might as well tell the truth, and immediately stopped hiding it, and said with a sad face: "Don't hide it from the adults, there are really not so many silver taels in the hall now, can the adults give two days of grace, and the little one will go to the headquarters tomorrow, and the hundred thousand taels will be handed over to the adults within five days." β
"Haha. β
Lone Star knew what this person was worried about, no wonder his expression had been a little wrong since just now, it turned out that he was shy in his pocket, and immediately said with a smile: "Dare to ask how many silver taels do you have on hand now?"
"One...... Ten thousand taels. The man seemed a little ashamed to speak, "With the addition of the three thousand taels on my body, there are only thirteen thousand taels in total." β
"Thirteen thousand taels?" Lone Star smacked his lips and said, "That's good, the adults only need to deliver the 10,000 taels to me, as for the remaining 90,000 taels and the three thousand taels that the adults themselves bring, what do you think?"
"How can this be done?"
When the man heard this, he immediately panicked, and when he was leaving, he told himself that he should entertain the person in front of him, even if he made any excessive requests, he should respond to him for the time being, so it can be seen that he is a person who must not be offended, but now it is good, and he can't even give the reward he deserves, and this must be known by the above, how can he still have his life. At that moment, he was frightened into a cold sweat, and said in a panic: "My lord, please forgive the villain for not being well entertained for a while, the villain will raise silver taels for the adult overnight, please wait a moment." β
As he spoke, he was about to rush out of the door, but he grabbed Lone Star and said with a smile: "What are you going to do, didn't I say I didn't want to?"
But seeing that the man shook his head, he sighed helplessly: "The adult can not do it, but the villain can't not give it, and please let the adult let go of the villain, so that the villain can go and raise silver taels for the adult." β
Lone Star suddenly couldn't figure it out, could it be that the people in this blood reward hall were stupid, he didn't want it, he didn't agree, he didn't have a straight face at the moment, and said angrily: "I said don't want it, don't you understand?"
The man was shocked, and immediately did not dare to say anything more.
"You're afraid of me?"
From just now, Lone Star found out that this person's cultivation is obviously higher than his own, but for some reason, he seems to be very afraid of himself.
"Afraid, naturally afraid. The man smiled bitterly: "You are a character that no adult in my family dares to offend, and I have a few dares to offend you." β
"Don't dare to offend?"
Lone Star was stunned for a moment: "I'm just a Blood Rush Stage cultivator, why don't your adults dare to offend me?"
"This villain has no way of knowing, in short, the adult confessed this before leaving, you must not offend you, the villain can only remember. β
"Well, in that case, I have an idea. β
Lone Star said: "Don't you still owe me 90,000 taels, I want you to give one-third of it to the brothers who acted with me this time, don't tell me that you can't do it, I think there is still a blood reward for this ability, as for the remaining two-thirds, it will be donated to the front line as a military salary, what do you think?"
"This?"
The man lowered his head and hesitated for a while, wondering: "This villain can't be the master yet, wait for me to show my superiors tomorrow......"
"No need!"
Lone Star interrupted him and said impatiently, "Didn't you say that your family didn't dare to offend me, then you told him that I made you do this, would he disagree?"
I don't know how long it will drag on, but Lone Star simply put on a stand and said bluntly.
"In that case, the villain listens to the adult. β
The man weighed it in his heart for a while, then made a decision, and immediately took out the silver ticket from the cabinet and handed it to Lone Star: "Ten thousand taels, please take it." β
Lone Star snorted, but he took the silver ticket without looking at it, turned around and said, "Well, since it's getting late, it's inconvenient for us to bother anymore, say goodbye!"
As he spoke, he ignored the man's reaction, stepped on his horse first, and walked away.
In the blood reward hall, the man sat down on the stool, but he didn't care about wiping off the cold sweat, but hurriedly picked up the pen from the table and wrote something quickly.
"Brother Bao, what did you say happened to the Blood Reward Hall today, and the reaction was so strange?" On the way back, Lone Star deliberately slowed down and asked.
Hearing this, Bao Hong also had to understand: "I don't understand this, even if you destroy the Blood Snake Village is a great help to them, they are grateful to you, then there is no need for this, it is really incomprehensible." β
"What is the reason?"
Lone Star straddled the horse, the two sword eyebrows were almost twisted together, and he still couldn't think of a reason, so he couldn't help but say a little frustratedly: "Especially when he said that the adults of his family don't dare to offend me, who is he, Lord Qin, I'm a little martial artist, what does he dare not offend?"
"Don't dare to offend?"
Bao Hong was taken aback: "Could it be that Qin Bo'an knows something?"
"Know what?"
"This blood reward hall is directly under the orders of the saint, and its status is extremely respectful, with this Qin Bo'an's cultivation, it should also be able to rank in the hall. β
Bao Hong thought for a while and said: "In this way, in addition to being the prime minister of the dynasty and Yang Zhan, the generalissimo of soldiers and horses who is in charge of the army of tens of millions, there must only be the four great families of the ancient capital city." β
"The Four Great Families?" Lone Star was stunned: "What does this have to do with me?"
I saw Bao Hong sigh lightly and said leisurely: "Of the four families in the ancient capital, the night family is one of them." β
Lone Star was immediately shocked when he heard this, then clenched his hands, and said in confusion: "Yejia, could it be you?"
