Chapter 94: Three Hundred Taels
The two were eating compressed biscuits, and a guard came over, and the other party said:
"This son, my prince is invited."
Fang Yu handed the half-eaten biscuit to Chen Xiao: "You wait here." β
Then he got up and walked with the guards towards the big tent.
There were candles lit in the tent, and there were two low wooden beds in it, one bed was the grandson, and the other bed was the king of De, and the doctor was decocting medicine in the tent, and a strong smell of medicine permeated the tent.
"Meet His Royal Highness the Taisun, meet His Royal Highness King De." Fang Yu bowed and did not kneel.
The grandson was lying with his eyes closed, King De looked at Fang Yu, but he didn't care that he didn't kneel and kowtow, and asked:
"Where are you from? What is the last name? β
"Grass people Fang Yu, Anxian people."
"What do you do?"
"The grass man and the lady run a small food restaurant."
"Why are you here?"
"The grass people and the lady are going to Jinghe and pass through here."
King De looked him up and down again, and said:
"This king thanks you on behalf of Your Highness. Here are three hundred taels of silver tickets as thank you. What is happening here today should not be mentioned to anyone in the future, and if it is leaked, be careful. King De's tone was gentle, but the last sentence was full of threats.
Fang Yuxin said: Taisun's life is only worth three hundred taels? No, he and Chen Xiao only deserve three hundred taels.
"Thank you, King De! The grass people remembered. β
Fang Yu's tone was flat, and he bowed.
"Let's go down." King Tak motioned for him to take the silver ticket and go out.
Fang Yu picked up the silver ticket and exited the tent.
Three hundred taels? Hum!
Fang Yu sneered and walked back to Chen Xiao's side.
"What did they tell you?" Chen Xiao asked.
"King De gave me three hundred taels of silver. We were told not to mention what happened here today, and to cut off our heads if it leaked out. β
"What?" Chen Xiao was a little unexpected. They saved the grandson's life! Taisun's life is only worth three hundred taels? And threaten to cut off the head!
Fang Yu laughed at himself: "Heh, it's me thinking too much." β
He originally thought: Save the grandson, attach to the imperial power of Nanyue, and let the grandson help Chen Xiao issue a national search notice in the future, isn't it difficult? In the future, they will do business, and the grandson will take care of one or two, isn't it difficult? Outcome......
Chen Xiao was unhappy in his heart, but seeing that Fang Yu was also angry, he touched his back and comforted:
"Forget it, don't expect to repay the favor. When we do good deeds, we shouldn't covet anything in return. β
Fang Yu sneered. He only made a move in order to get a reward, and to resurrect a dead man, he needed to pay 100,000 soul power. Last time in Nanzhong County, in order to help Chen Xiao get rid of his crimes, it was worth it. This time to resurrect an heir to the throne, he thinks it's okay. But I didn't expect that three hundred taels of silver!
Can 300 taels buy 100,000 souls? He even said that if there is a leak, be careful of your head. It's ridiculous!
Chen Xiao handed back the compressed biscuits that Fang Yu hadn't eaten, Fang Yu was angry and wanted to throw the biscuits, but when he thought about it: This is a small biscuit.
"I want to eat something good." Fang Yu said to Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao thought about it and looked around again. There were torches on the side of the big tent, and there were a lot of people guarding them. It's dark on their side, and the people over there don't pay any attention to them.
"Let's go into the tent." Chen Xiao pulled Fang Yu into the tent.
A simple tent made of tarpaulin, with limited space inside, can only squat or lie down.
"White Worm." Chen Xiaochuan called to Bai Yu: "You come out and help us guard in the tent." β
The white worm replied: "That's not good, what if humans find me?" β
"It's not normal for a snake to get into a tent in the middle of nowhere!"
Bai Yi was silent for a moment: "Okay." β
As soon as the words fell, a white python more than two meters long appeared in the tent with a twisted body.
"Yikes!" Fang Yu was startled.
"Don't be afraid." Chen Xiao hurriedly said: "It is the white worm I told you, it doesn't bite." β
The white snake was also taken aback by Fang Yu's reaction. Ouch mom, it's too similar! What will the "brother-in-law" be afraid of, only others are afraid of him.
"It'sβit's a white cocktail?" Fang Yu's tone stammered slightly.
"Yes, a snake." Chen Xiao said to Bai Yu: "Don't you want to be a family with him?" Say hello. β
Bai Yu always persuaded Chen Xiao in the space: marry Fang Yu and become a family with him. said that it sensed that Fang Yu was a good person. Chen Xiao asked how it sensed, and it couldn't say why.
"Sister, brother-in-law......" Bai Yu hesitated, but still shouted out the name it always called Fang Yu.
Fang Yu suppressed the corners of his mouth and pretended to be surprised: "It really can speak human words!" β
Chen Xiao sneered at the white python and said, "You are quite good at it." β
The white snake lay down on the head of the snake and lay on the ground. It's embarrassing in this scene, isn't it!
Chen Xiao said to Bai Yi: "We are going to go into the black stone, you are guarding the black stone and the tent here." If anyone comes to us, you let me know. β
"Yes." The white worm lay on the ground and bowed its head.
Chen Xiao held Fang Yu's hand and prepared to pull him into the black stone.
"Wait a minute." Fang Yu let go of his hand and went to tidy up the tent door curtain. It is said to be a curtain, but in fact, the tarpaulin is folded in half to form an entrance like a pocket. Fold the "mouth of the bag" and pin it to the side, so that others can't open the curtain at once and see the people inside at a glance. To put it simply, there is a buffer time between opening the curtain and seeing the people inside.
Of course, when he did this action, he actually took the opportunity to communicate with the white snake.
He whispered to the white dragon, "When the people outside are asleep at night, you can go and cause some chaos for them." Especially the people in that big tent. β
"What kind of chaos are you going to create?" The white thief asked.
"Whatever." Fang Yu thought for a while, and then said, "You see if they have any silver tickets on them, they all stole them for him." β
He didn't instruct Bai Yu to kill Taisun or King De because if they died, he and Chen Xiao might not be able to leave. In addition, the king sent him with three hundred taels of silver, perhaps it was only the king's own idea. Taisun was assassinated here, and before he asked Yang Yan to inform King De, Yang Yan said that "it may be King De".
The conspiracy in the royal family was complicated, Fang Yu didn't want to explore, he just wanted to get what he wanted. As for whether they are sincere or fake, what does it have to do with him.
After tidying up the door curtain, he held Chen Xiao's hand. Chen Xiao's mind moved, and the two disappeared into the tent.
In the next second, the dazzling white light around Fang Yu made Fang Yu involuntarily close his eyes.
Chen Xiao told him before that there is no night in the black stone, only eternal day.
It was night outside and it was dark in the little tent. Suddenly coming to such a bright place, Fang Yu closed his eyes and got used to it, before slowly opening his eyes.
