Chapter 39: The Conditions of the Snake Demon Clan (5.5K Seeking Follow-up)
"Hehe, I'm here uninvited, I don't know if you're welcome?"
At the door of the shed, a figure stood alone.
Although the environment of the shack in the mining area is slightly dilapidated and simple, with him standing quietly at the door, it seems that it has suddenly turned into an elegant study school.
"Daddy!"
Lan'er was the first to react, and immediately exclaimed, took a lotus step to meet her, grabbed the arm of the visitor, and said, "Why are you here?" β
"I've seen Lord Zhou."
"Hello Lord Zhou."
Looking at the middle-aged Confucian standing beside Lan'er, the gang of fierce mining bigwigs in the shed, the anger on their faces unconsciously subsided a little, and nodded at him.
"Lord Zhou, ahem......"
Even Wang Xu, who was seriously injured while leaning on the bed, struggled to poke his head out and greeted the person at the door.
Zhou Zhili, Lan'er's father, the former waiter of the Great Wei Household Department, and the former second-grade member!
"The little girl originally made an appointment with her wife to go back to learn painting with her after dinner, but she couldn't return for a long time, so I came here to look for her."
Zhou Zhili smiled faintly, walked into the house, and said, "Just now I heard everyone outside the house excited, it seems that something big is about to happen?" β
"Don't hide it from Lord Zhou, it's true."
Liu Yong's face was slightly gloomy, and he said: "You have also seen that my third brother Wang Xu is now seriously injured in bed, that is, he was just injured by King Jing Li Xun, and the brothers can't swallow this breath, you also know that our group of people get together and don't ask for anything else, but no matter what, we don't want to be used as a pawn that can be discarded at any time." β
"King Jing?"
Zhou Zhili looked silent, shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be, he has been in obscurity for so long before, and he has finally gained your help recently, even if he just uses you, it is far from the point where he is willing to abandon you, how could he just subdue you, and immediately turn his face in a hurry?" It's so perverse. β
"What's so strange about that?"
Wang Xu, who was lying on the bed, sat up and said excitedly: "Because King Jing doesn't know the boss's friendship with us, in his heart, he feels that I am just an insignificant little person, so he will beat him, he thinks that the boss will not turn his face against him for me, just like when he killed the second brother with a sword, the eldest brother also chose to be patient." β
"Hmm...... No, still no. β
Zhou Zhili muttered: "The major events that have happened in the city in the past two days, Wang Xu, after you told Lan'er, I also heard her mention it at home, King Jing is not like the kind of style that will be impulsive and hurt people for no reason, in this way, you should tell me in detail about the matter, so as not to act impulsively and tear your face with King Jing, this is not a trivial matter, you must be cautious." β
"Dad, here's the thing."
Lan'er took Zhou Zhili's arm, opened her mouth lightly, and told 1510 what had happened before.
After listening to this, Zhou Zhili's brows first furrowed slightly, and then when he heard the back, he slowly stretched out, and in the end, after Li Xun left a word, Zhou Zhili's face even had a faint smile.
"Dad, that's the way it is."
After Lan'er finished speaking, she looked at Zhou Zhili's expression and couldn't help but wonder: "Huh? Dad, what are you laughing at? β
"You guys!"
Zhou Zhili chuckled, looked around at the bewildered people in the room, shook his head and said, "Are you still going to go to King Jing to fight to the death?" I see, Liu Yong and Wang Xu, the two of you should find an opportunity in private to thank His Royal Highness King Jing! β
οΌοΌοΌ
After listening to Zhou Zhili's words, the puzzle on Liu Yong's faces couldn't help but become even stronger.
King Jing beat Wang Xu to the point of being bedridden, and even most of the cultivation of the Baichuan Realm was abolished!
They also want to thank King Jing??
Is it thanks to his ancestors for eighteen generations and all the female immediate family?
"Lord Zhou, what do you say ......?"
Liu Yong scratched his head and said, "We don't understand this." β
"yes!"
Wang Xu stood up excitedly, and said with an aggrieved face: "Uncle Zhou, don't you also support me in dating Lan'er on weekdays?" Why are you still helping King Jing speak at this time? β
"You boys, you're just too impulsive."
Zhou Zhili smiled, a trace of wisdom flashed on his face, and he raised his chin at Wang Xu and said, "Don't be busy with grievances first, you look down at yourself, how can you get out of bed?" β
"How do I get out of bed??"
Wang Xu raised his leg and blurted out: "Why don't I just stand up...... Huh?? That's right! I can get out of bed! β
After speaking, Wang Xu moved his limbs again, and after a while, he lifted his clothes with a stunned face and looked at his lower abdomen dantian.
I saw that an incomparably clear palm print left by Li Xun there had disappeared at this moment.
"What's going on?"
When Liu Yong and the others saw this, they were all stunned.
"I feel so hot in my lower abdomen now, as if there is a warm water bag in the dantian!"
Wang Xu exclaimed, and then immediately sat down cross-legged on the spot and began to sense the situation in his body.
"Poof!!"
After a while, Wang Xu opened his mouth and spat out a large mouthful of black bruises, emitting a fishy smell that made people frown.
"The third child!"
"Third brother!"
Liu Yong and the others hurriedly surrounded them, ignoring the pungent fishy smell and their faces full of concern.
"Big brother! Brothers! I'm fine! β
But Wang Xu, who opened his eyes again, was full of excitement in his eyes, and said: "Not only is it okay, but I'm still in good shape!" Ha ha! Exceptional! It's never been better!! β
Facing Liu Yong's puzzled eyes, Wang Xu spoke: "Big brother! Do you remember? When I participated in the war in the army, I once fell into a heavy siege with my teammates, and in order to survive, I didn't care about the injuries on my body, and I didn't completely strengthen my perfect body, and forcibly broke through from the Forging Body Realm to the Baichuan Realm, and then broke through the encirclement? β
"Well, remember!"
Liu Yong nodded and said, "Didn't you tell me about this before?" I also feel that you kid is really a genius, and he can forcibly break through his cultivation when he is injured. β
"Yes!"
Wang Xu's eyes lit up and said: "But there is something I have never mentioned to my brothers, in fact, after that forcible breakthrough, I have always been left with dark injuries and hidden dangers in my body, and my muscles and veins are blocked, resulting in stagnation and sluggishness when my spiritual power is running to the extreme, and I have nothing to do all year round, I am afraid that I will not be able to break through to the Danhai realm in this life and become a grandmaster." β
"But now!"
Wang Xu slapped his chest loudly, and said excitedly: "My meridians blocked by old injuries have been washed away!" The hidden danger in my body is gone! Ha ha! Even the spiritual power that I had just dissipated was rapidly recovering with an unprecedented sense of smoothness! β
"Really?!"
Liu Yong couldn't help but widen his eyes, and he was happy for his good brother from the bottom of his heart.
Wang Xu's talent was originally very good, but because of what happened on the battlefield back then, he had been trapped in the Baichuan Realm for so many years, and his cultivation could not break through to the rank of grandmaster.
This has always been a pain in his heart, in order not to let the brothers worry about him, sympathize with him, and pity him, so Wang Xu has always buried this secret deep in his heart and never told it to others.
"It's King Jing, it's his palms that have broken away my blocked meridians."
Wang Xu rubbed his lower abdomen and said, "There is also that palm print, that is the spiritual power he left in my dantian, and it was with the help of that spiritual power just now that I completely forced the blood out of my body." β
"Huh, now you see?"
Zhou Zhili on the side said with a smile: "Liu Yong, do you still remember what Lan'er just said, His Royal Highness King Jing left you a last sentence before leaving?" β
"He asked me to ask my brother what he had done before."
Liu Yong muttered: "This is ......"
"You think King Jing is asking you to ask Wang Xu why he hit him, right?"
Zhou Zhili chuckled and said: "But how do I think that King Jing saw Wang Xu's internal injuries, and what he asked you to ask was actually what Wang Xu just said that he had left a hidden illness on the battlefield?" β
"It turns out that we misunderstood His Highness?"
Liu Yong said in a daze: "Your Highness, he ostensibly injured the third child, but in fact, he is treating him for many years of hidden diseases!" β
"I see!"
Wang Xu also understood, scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and then grinned: "But why didn't His Royal Highness King Jing say it directly?" If we have to come out like this, if it weren't for Lord Zhou coming here today, we wouldn't have imagined this layer! β
"You kid, you're embarrassed to say."
Zhou Zhili on the side said angrily: "In my opinion, His Royal Highness King Jing was forced to play this riddle by your previous words. β
"Uncle Zhou, what does this mean?"
Wang Xu stared at his big eyes, stunned again, and said, "When will I force His Royal Highness King Jing?" β
"In front of His Royal Highness King Jing, you scolded Concubine Xuan as a demon concubine, scolded Zuo Xiang as a traitor, and most seriously, you also scolded the current saint for being a faint monarch!"
Zhou Zhili saw that he still didn't understand, and immediately said, "Aren't you forcing him to what?" If he doesn't punish you, won't that prove that he thinks the same as you, and has this kind of unfilial piety? β
"But there were no outsiders at the time, so what did it matter?"
Zhang Xing, the fourth master on the side, couldn't help but mutter.
"I can guess a thing or two about that."
Zhou Zhili muttered: "When I was still an official in the court, there was once an assessment of the princes, and the supervision envoy assigned by the eldest prince who ruled in the fiefdom presented a secret impeachment of the eldest prince, saying that he lied about taxes, raised private soldiers, and listed several major crimes. β
"Originally, the eldest prince would definitely be arrested and examined, but as a result, His Majesty exposed the secret performance of this supervision envoy as a false accusation, and also came up with detailed evidence."
Zhou Zhili spoke: "In the end, the eldest prince is fine, but the supervising envoy who framed the prince was executed in court to set an example. β
"What does this have to do with what we're doing today?"
Wang Xu asked with a puzzled expression.
"You're stupid! This proves that in the prince's fiefdom, in addition to the supervision envoys on the surface, in secret, there is also a secret agent personally sent by His Majesty, who is also closely monitoring the words and deeds of the princes! β
Liu Yong glanced at Wang Xu angrily, and said: "If you are in a specially guarded secret room or something, you can rest assured, but you are in a place like the mine where there are many people, and you still roar out so loudly and openly, it is no wonder that His Royal Highness King Jing wants to punish you on the surface, in case you will be secretly given a secret reference by secret agents!" β
"Not only that, based on Wang Xu's remarks today, if it weren't for King Jing personally taking action to punish and admonish, if King Jing didn't deal with it, and His Majesty's secret agent decided to take action in person, then Wang Xu, do you still have a life?"
As soon as Zhou Zhili's words came out, Wang Xu was suddenly frightened.
A mysterious spy sent by the imperial court, if he is caught off guard and suddenly kills him, the chance of him surviving is only afraid that it will not even be a percent!
"And you don't have to worry, if you don't have me today, you will impulsively kill King Jing."
"Judging from the speed of recovery from Wang Xu's injuries in his body, even if you didn't understand the deep meaning of His Royal Highness King Jing at the beginning, I'm afraid that before you gather a good number of people, Wang Xu's injuries will already improve significantly, then you can naturally understand that King Jing is not trying to hurt Wang Xu at all, but is taking the opportunity to heal him."
Zhou Zhili chuckled, a look of interest appeared on his face, and said leisurely: "In this way, this time it is my troubles, hehe, interesting, this King Jing is really a wonderful person!" β
"Lord Zhou, what are you talking about, how can you be troublesome?"
Liu Yong bowed his hand towards Zhou Zhili, and said ashamedly: "If it weren't for your suggestion, our brothers would have not recovered until now, and if we rashly bring people to kill His Royal Highness King Jing at that time, and then the misunderstanding will be resolved, then our brothers' faces will be completely lost......"
"I just scolded His Royal Highness King Jing for being unkind and unjust, I'm really ......"
Wang Xu slapped his thigh next to him, then gritted his teeth and said, "No!" His Royal Highness King Jing has recreated me with kindness, and I must go to him in person to make amends! β
"Oops! Just stop! β
Lan'er held down Wang Xu, angrily stretched out her snow-white onion and pointed at his head, and said: "If you run to the City Lord's Mansion like a nobody now, to thank His Royal Highness King Jing for his great kindness, then everything His Royal Highness King Jing painstakingly disguised, wouldn't it suddenly be in front of the secret talk?" β
"Oh, yes, hey, yes."
Wang Xu scratched his head, smirked twice, and said, "Lan'er is right, you can't go now, hehe, you can't go." β
"Okay, Wang Xu, you should consolidate your cultivation, don't let down your Royal Highness King Jing's hard work for you."
Zhou Zhili waved his hand at them and said, "Okay, okay, all of you are all gone, I'll take Lan'er back, no matter how late it is, her mother is afraid that she will come over worriedly." β
"Master Zhou, walk slowly."
Liu Yong and the others all smiled and nodded, and bowed their hands to Zhou Zhili: "Thank you, Lord Zhou." β
"Hehe, thank me for what?"
Zhou Zhili shook his head and turned around and said: "If you have a chance to turn around, thank you Your Royal Highness King Jing, it is only right to do your best to assist others." β
"yes!"
Everyone couldn't help but nod their heads, deeply agreed.
"I said it a long time ago! Follow His Royal Highness King Jing, that's right! β
Zhang Xing, the fourth master, smacked his lips and said, "You guys still don't believe it, it's really ......."
"Your uncle!"
Wang Xu slapped Zhang Xing on the back of the head angrily, and said angrily: "Just now, you were called Huan, the first one who shouted to kill the fish in the City Lord's Mansion was your kid!" β
ββ¦β¦β
Liu Yong looked at the noisy brothers, shook his head with a wry smile, and immediately remembered what Li Xun had done, and couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart, and sighed secretly in his heart: "Your Highness......"
In the dead of night, Li Xun sat alone on the roof of the City Lord's Mansion, raised a glass to invite the bright moon, and drank alone under the cold moonlight.
Jing'an is bitterly cold, especially now that winter is approaching, and the night wind is even more cold.
Li Xun's current physique is not affected at all.
"Until now, I haven't been impulsive to come to me to ask for an explanation, it seems that I won't come tonight."
Li Xun drank the wine in the cup, chuckled, and said: "The gang of big bosses in the mining area, even Liu Yong, who has been a general and a soldier, may not be able to guess the real reason for what I did......
"If he can be used by me, why can't the depressed economy in Jing'an City develop?"
Li Xun's eyes flashed with a fine light.
"Master, who is this targeting?"
In the midst of chuckling, a white shadow suddenly swayed behind Li Xun.
"Got news?"
Li Xun didn't look back, put down the wine glass in his hand, and said, "I hope it will be good news." β
"There are two pieces of news, one good and one bad, I don't know which one Your Highness wants to hear first?"
Yu'er came to Li Xun with a light smile, leaned over, and the plump big papaya stuck to Li Xun's arm, and poured him a full glass of wine.
"Okay."
Li Xun took advantage of the situation with his left hand to hold the big papaya that happened to be stuffed with the palm of his hand, and gently twisted it slowly to wipe it up.
"The snake demon clan gave a reply, and there happens to be a green snake girl with a perfect body, which can be used to trade with the master."
Yu'er's breathing became slightly rapid, and her eyes narrowed slightly in comfort.
I don't know why, Li Xun seems to have an inexplicable aura on her body, which makes her heart sway uncontrollably.
"Not bad."
The corners of Li Xun's mouth lifted slightly, very satisfied with this result, and his right hand slid down, like a nimble swimming fish.
The eagle strikes the sky, and the fish soars to the shallow bottom.
"Don't be too happy, master, there's another bad news!"
Yu'er's thighs clenched, her lips biting lightly, trying her best to keep the calm in her voice.
"Say."
Li Xun's fingertips kept moving, the silver bottle burst through the water slurry, and the iron knight stood out with swords and guns.
"If you want to trade that young green snake girl, the conditions given by the snake demon clan are very harsh."
Yu'er took a deep breath, grabbed Li Xun's robe tightly with both hands, and said: "They want high-grade warm cloud fire jade, and they also cost a full ten thousand yuan, and they must pay half of the deposit before they can make an appointment to meet and trade, otherwise they will not be negotiated!" β
"Ten thousand pieces of Warm Cloud Fire Jade?"
Li Xun's hand suddenly reached forward, and Yu'er's whole person suddenly bowed into a shrimp shape, and couldn't help biting Li Xun's shoulder, making a "woo woo" sound.
"It is said that people's hearts are not enough for snakes to swallow elephants."
The smile on the corner of Li Xun's mouth slowly turned cold, and Sen Ran said: "This snake demon clan really dares to make a price!" β
Warm Cloud Fire Jade, although the value is not as good as the spirit crystal, but the value is several times that of the ordinary spirit jade!
According to the market price, one warm cloud fire jade can be worth five ordinary spirit jades, which is equivalent to fifty spirit stones.
The price offered by the snake demon clan, even if it was just an advance deposit, was equivalent to 250,000 spirit stones!
Even if Li Xun has just won the handicap of the Grandmaster War recently, his net worth is only 90,000 spirit stones!
"Okay, I'll make it for them!"
Li Xun's eyes narrowed slightly, and his left hand tightened, making the softness of his palm like the white dough in the hand of a chef kneading the dough, and a smooth and tender snow white overflowed from between his fingers.
"I'm afraid that they have a life to harvest, but no life to spend!"
