Chapter XXXIV Protection Fees

After Meng Zhao sold out the things he needed to sell, he felt that someone was following him behind him, Meng Zhao quietly observed that most of their strength was at the fifth level of the Qi Sea Realm, although the realm was higher than his own, it was not a problem for Meng Zhao to escape, and there was also the prohibition of fighting in Bafang City, so Meng Zhao no longer paid attention to them.

However, just as Meng Zhao was passing by a person head-on, that person suddenly shot at Meng Zhao, so the Qingyan in Meng Zhao's mind gave a warning in advance and was dodged by Meng Zhao, and the person was obviously a little surprised by Meng Zhao's ability to dodge his sudden blow, but that person did not take advantage of the situation to fight with Meng Zhao, but left directly.

After that, one person came directly to Meng Zhao and said viciously

"Boy, the strength is good!But Lao Tzu's brother has been staring at you for several days, and I advise you to contribute half to Lao Tzu, and the person behind Lao Tzu can ensure that you can benefit from the remaining half!" Meng Zhao just laughed when he heard this, and then ignored the man, who didn't care about Meng Zhao's cold response and continued

"If you change your mind, look for Lao Liu in Liu's pharmacy in the east of the city, and someone will inform Lao Tzu!" When Meng Zhao returned to the inn in Bafang City, several other people had already gathered at a table, and several people also encountered threats when they came back, but the people they were looking for were the same.

Then Meng Zhao greeted Xiao Er, Xiao Er looked at Meng Zhao and the others with strange eyes, Meng Zhao asked Xiao Er why he looked at them like that, and Xiao Er said

"You must have met someone who threatened you to pay protection money, right?" Meng Zhao also smiled when he heard this, it was not wrong that what Lao Liu did was called protection money, and then Xiao Er continued

"But you don't have to deny it, there are no secrets in Bafang City!Xiao Er, I knew your ending when I saw you at first sight, either you passed by here unscathed, or you came for the auction and were blackmailed by the four major families of Bafang City!" Meng Zhao and the others heard this, and asked about the origin of the four major families, Xiao Er was a little hesitant, and after Meng Zhao Ningya took out a piece of gold, Xiao Er began to speak

"The origins of the four major families can be traced back to a thousand years ago, and you all know that some of the original Bafang City were defeated by the Xuan Sect and exiled here, right?" Meng Zhao nodded when he heard this, the Xuan Sect's Hidden Scripture Pavilion recorded this incident, but there was no detailed record of the later whereabouts of the defeated sect, Meng Zhao speculated that it may be that the Xuan Sect had undergone changes and some of the books were destroyed.

"The original sect can still be said to be a sect, but among them, Miao, Song, Xu, The four elders of Wei later broke away from the sect and called the four major families, although Bafang City has an actual master, but never appeared, over time, these four major families became the real rulers, and later developed into the four major families in the city today, these four major families are not good at stubble, they gradually figured out the character of the master of Bafang City and began to seek personal interests for themselves within the scope of his tolerance, such as the protection money that a few people encountered today, a few of them now understand why they can be so bold to track you although their strength is not high, right? It's a pity, a few people who are not with a deep background, if they are people with a deep background, the four major families will not be so presumptuous!" After Xiao Er finished speaking, Ning Ya threw the piece of gold to Xiao Er, and Xiao Er hurriedly rubbed it and forgot to leave.

After a few people listened, Ning Ya frowned and said

"Do we really have to pay the so-called protection fee?" Zhong Fei slapped the table and scolded when he heard this

"Give me a request! We are disciples of the Xuan Sect, even if the Xuan Sect has declined now, it is not so easy for others to handle!" Although Lin Sanhu did not speak, Meng Zhao also knew his attitude, especially after cultivating the sword, the sword cultivation would not bend, that is, it would be determined that the road would go to the dark.

When Meng Zhao was about to speak, a voice suddenly came to mind next to him, Meng Zhao followed the sound and saw that Xiao Er's gold had fallen to the ground, and Xiao Er looked at Meng Zhao and the others in a daze, and Xiao Er stammered under Meng Zhao's repeated shouts

"You just said that you are disciples of the Xuan Sect, so how many of you are Meng Zhao, Lin Sanhu, Zhong Fei and Ning Ya?" Meng Zhao asked suspiciously, how could Xiao Er know their names?

Xiao Er was puzzled and said

"Don't you know yet?" Meng Zhao was also puzzled when he heard this.
