Chapter 203: Deal
"Let's build a place where the thieves of River City can live, right?" Mr. Lin sent an invitation to Xu Shuo.
Xu Shuo looked coldly at Mr. Lin, who was smiling pretending to be smiling in front of him, and chuckled.
It's really contrived to destroy other people's shelters.
"I'm sorry that I have no intention of staying in this country for long." Xu Shuo said.
"Where is Mr. Xu going?" Mr. Lin asked.
"It's none of your business, you just need to bring that woman to me quickly." Xu Shuo said coldly.
Seeing Xu Shuo's tough attitude, the smile on Mr. Lin's face gradually disappeared.
As a subordinate, the tiger face observed the words and said:
"Hey, how are you talking to Mr. Lin?! Do you know that Mr. Lin is ......?"
Mr. Lin raised his hand to stop Hu Mian from continuing, he said "Wait a minute" to Xu Shuo, and then turned around and walked out of the lounge.
After Mr. Lin left, the lounge was quiet for a while, and only the chanting of the priest in charge of treatment could be heard. For some reason, the atmosphere was a little restless, and the eyes of the players were all on Xu Shuo, intentionally or unintentionally.
Finally, Tiger Mask couldn't help it, he sat down next to Xu Shuo and asked in a low voice, "You...... Is it from the village? β
Xu Shuo glanced at Hu Mian with some surprise, this person had just had the face of a thug, but now he whispered.
"Sort of." Xu Shuo said.
"So, how is the village now? Bai Yu: Are they okay? β
The rest of the people in the lounge had their heads moving slightly, as if they were about to prick up their ears.
Xu Shuo pondered for a moment and said: "I don't know how to answer this question, I don't know what the village was like before, so I can't compare, but in my opinion, the situation in the village has nothing to do with the word 'good'." β
After hearing this, Tiger Face lowered his head in some frustration.
"That's right. Also, the village was so badly destroyed before, and now winter is here again......"
As he spoke, he took out some fragmentary coins from his pocket and quietly handed them to Xu Shuo.
"The money ......"
Before Tiger Mask could finish his words, the door of the lounge was rudely pushed open, and Tiger Mask was so frightened that he immediately clenched his fists and hid the money.
However, it was not Mr. Lin, but Lilian, who was full of anxiety.
Lilian looked around the room, and after locking on to Xu Shuo's figure, she trotted all the way over.
"Mr. Xu Shuo, are you alright? Was it badly hurt? I just pushed the woman down as you said, but I don't know if I succeeded in stopping her, and then someone pulled me away, and I just, I ......" Lilian gestured with her hands and feet, panting unevenly.
"Calm down, Lilian," Xu Shuo grabbed her hand and said with relief, "I'm fine, you're doing well, thanks to you I can successfully fight back." β
"Ha, huh......" Lilian was relieved when she heard Xu Shuo say this, and then squatted down to check the injuries on Xu Shuo's body. Is that really okay? I watched it from the audience and felt quite serious. β
Before Xu Shuo could say anything, the old man who was treating Xu Shuo on the side stopped chanting, and he looked at Lilian angrily.
"Miss, do you not exist for me? I know you're worried about your little lover, but could you please get out of the way? You're getting in the way of my work. β
Lilion noticed the priest's presence, and her cheeks turned crimson.
"Sorry, sorry, please continue, ahhh, besides, we're not in that relationship......" Lilian whispered as she stepped back.
"That's right, please don't make a mistake about the old man, we're just ordinary friends." Xu Shuo also clarified.
"Ordinary ......"
For some reason, Lilian's expression was a little lonely.
Tiger Mask wanted to continue the conversation again, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the door to the lounge was pushed open againβthis time it was Mr. Lin.
Mr. Lin came in alone, and Xu Shuo frowned when he saw it, "What about the woman?" β
Mr. Lin shrugged.
"It looks like it's gone."
"Let's go? How's it going, didn't your people stop her? Xu Shuo asked.
"She's also my person, why should my people stop her?" Mr. Lin said as a matter of course.
"Didn't you say you'd bring her in and explain it clearly?" Xu Shuo said.
"What can I do, her legs are on other people's bodies, she wants to leave, and I can't stop her."
"Tsk."
Xu Shuo smacked his tongue, looking at this guy's appearance, it seemed that because he refused to join him, he didn't plan to cooperate.
"Forget it...... I said before, I'll fight a six-in-one battle, and you can answer me some questions, does this still count? Xu Shuo asked.
"Of course it counts." Mr. Lin smiled and said, "As long as I know the answer." β
Sounds like he's ready to play tricks.
No matter what, Xu Shuo still held the attitude of a dead horse as a live horse doctor and asked, "Have you heard of the Blood Moon Clan?" β
After hearing the words of the Blood Moon Clan, Mr. Lin put away his smile, he made a contemplative appearance, and then said slowly, "Hmm...... I've heard a little, why are you asking about the Blood Moon Clan? β
Xu Shuo's eyes lit up and he felt a glimmer of hope, he didn't answer Mr. Lin's rhetorical question, but asked straight to the point: "Do you know where the descendants of the Blood Moon Clan live now?" β
Mr. Lin lowered his head, put his hands behind his back, and took a long breath of "hiss", as if considering something.
Seeing this, Xu Shuo stood up with a "pout".
"You know what?!"
"Calm down, calm down, Mr. Xu, your question is indeed a bit beyond my expectations." Mr. Lin said unhurriedly: "This question, its value is too high, and if you want to get the answer to this question, a good game is not enough." β
"So you do know!"
"No, no, no, I didn't say that." Mr. Lin waved his hand and denied.
Xu Shuo frowned, it was the first time he was so close to the clue, and his patience could not withstand too many challenges at this moment, so he stepped forward and grabbed Mr. Lin's collar.
"And what do you mean by that? Make it clear! β
"It means that although I don't know, if I want to check, it's not impossible to find it if I put some effort into it, but it depends on whether there are any conditions worth my attention." Mr. Lin touched his chin, the corners of his eyes were crooked, and he looked like a profiteer, as if he was planning to slaughter Xu Shuo with a big mouth.
However, Xu Shuo doesn't care, as long as he can find the Blood Moon Clan right now, no matter what the price is, he can consider it, except for ......
"Then please join our family. Mr. Lin said.
Xu Shuo shook his head, "This is not good, I also said before, I will not stay in this country for too long, you can change the conditions." β
"Then forget it." Mr. Lin shrugged his shoulders, "I'm a person who has no shortage of food and clothing, my pocket is full of gold coins, and I am surrounded by women, what do I need?" All I need is a few like-minded people. β
"You ......"
Xu Shuo stared at the treacherous middle-aged man in front of him, and the first thought that flashed through his mind was to torture, torture this man until he gave in. But this is not the safest way, the other party can go against the law, and then run away, or delay the time. Xu Shuo doesn't have that much time to spend with him, so he may not be able to get the best result with violence.
So is there any other way? Xu Shuo had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly remembered something.
"I don't think that's the case, Mr. Lin, you are indeed well fed and clothed, but you are not carefree." Xu Shuo said unhurriedly: "You are facing a strong competitor now, right?" That opponent has cost you a lot of money, and it's the reason why you need to recruit new recruits now. β
"Oh?"
Mr. Lin seemed to be interested.
"You know the Black Turban Thief?"
"I don't know." Xu Shuo smiled, "I just killed one of their leaders in the Land of Flame last month. β
"Really?" Mr. Lin's eyes lit up, "I want you to join us even more when you say that." β
Xu Shuo shook his head.
"It's impossible to join you, but I can help you deal with the local black scarf thief, this is the best condition I can give, if you don't agree, forget it."
Mr. Lin looked at Xu Shuo, thought for a while, nodded and said, "Deal, the boss of the local black turban thief is called Kebu, you bring his head, and I will give you the information of the Blood Moon Clan." β
