Chapter 92: Fair Exchange
Fang Yan nodded, not showing the slightest surprise, as if he had expected it a long time ago. It's just that the moment he heard the news, the corners of his mouth suddenly hooked a strange arc, and it flashed away.
Things are slowly moving forward according to the trajectory he has set, and as long as there are no major loopholes, this time he has a great chance of rescuing his father.
This fleeting smirk happened to be captured by the young man, which made him even more confused.
Hasn't all the pills on his body been snatched away? What else did the elders look for him? The young man muttered in confusion and turned to leave.
Seeing the young man disappear from his sight, Fang Yan cautiously looked around, and when he saw that no one was paying attention to him, he quickly lowered his head and spit out something from his mouth.
And this thing is the space ring.
Looking at the intact space ring in his hand, Fang Yan breathed a sigh of relief and hid it close to his body.
When he was knocked to the ground by the sudden blow of thunder, he knew that he would not be able to dodge this time no matter what, so after being knocked to the ground, he took the opportunity to hide the spatial ring in his hand and put it in his mouth when he swallowed the elixir.
Because he was very secretive, although there were thousands of people around at the time, none of them noticed this detail, and everyone simply thought that he had just taken an elixir. He didn't know that he had swallowed a spatial ring while swallowing the elixir. Even Lu Meng and Lei Ming only searched him once and left in a hurry.
Of course, these people didn't expect that dialects would have such a rare thing as a space ring.
He kept the space ring in his mouth all the time, and even in the past two days, he didn't dare to relax when taking the potion and pill. I didn't even dare to talk to anyone, for fear that some flaws would be revealed.
But to his surprise, he lay here for three days, and no one dared to search his body again, which made him really feel at ease. I know that no one in this Qingyun Peak dares to do anything excessive. Because of this, he dared to take it out now. After all, it was too inconvenient to keep it in his mouth, and if he kept it in his mouth, he would definitely be discovered by the elders when he talked to them later. He couldn't take that risk.
Half an hour later, two young men with serious expressions walked in outside, and the two whispered something beside Fang Yan, and then left with him.
Out of the convalescence room, Fang Yan was supported by these two people to sit on the back of a goshawk and go straight to the clouds.
A quarter of an hour later, the dialect was brought to the top of one of the elders' mountain in Qingyun Peak.
Looking at this somewhat familiar mountain, Fang Yan's brows furrowed slightly, but he couldn't remember where this was for a while. It wasn't until he saw a middle-aged Confucian student walking out of front of him that his whole heart rose violently. This person turned out to be the deacon elder of Qingyun Peak, the elder he had once pleaded with him, Elder Zhong.
"Elder Zhong." The dialect called out respectfully to the comer. But there were some doubts in his heart, in his design, there should be more than one person who came to him at this time.
"Dialect ......" Elder Zhong looked at Dialect with complicated eyes, and after a while, he said in a complicated tone, "You are really not simple. ”
Fang Yan's brows furrowed slightly, not knowing how to answer. But in my mind, I was thinking about the meaning of this sentence.
"It's only been a little more than a month since you started, and you have caused such a big storm in the mountains, making everyone know about it, hehe, I really underestimated you at the beginning." Elder Zhong glanced at Fang Yan, and no longer beat around the bush, and asked directly, "Let me ask you, it is rumored that you have an elixir that can quickly recover from injuries, but is it true?" ”
Fang Yan had already responded to this question, but he still hesitated for a moment before answering, "Yes." ”
"Really?" Elder Zhong's eyes lit up violently, his face showed joy, and he said hurriedly, "Where did you get this elixir?" ”
"I once got it unintentionally in a deep mountain." The dialect methodically answered the questions he had prepared.
"Unintentionally in the mountains?" Elder Zhong looked suspicious, obviously not fully convinced of this answer. A month earlier, he had sent someone to find out where the tongue was coming from, but it turned out to be a wall at every turn. Nothing useful was inquired about. He even had some doubts about whether the dialect came from a powerful family.
"Yes, the disciple did get it unintentionally in a deep mountain." Fang Yan replied unhurriedly.
"How many of these pills did you get?"
"Nine."
"Nine?" Elder Zhong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Fang Yan with a smile: "Then how many do you have left now?" ”
Fang Yan's heart froze, and he replied cautiously: "Elder Zhong, all the pills on the disciple's body have been snatched away. ”
"Snatched?" Elder Zhong sneered, and was about to say something more, when his face suddenly changed, and he turned his head to look into the distance.
Seeing this, Fang Yan's eyes flashed with joy, and he was not surprised at all.
"Haha, Zhong Shusheng, you are really fast, we rushed over as soon as we received the news, but I didn't expect you to take the lead. You're really well informed. ”
With an ethereal sound, several black dots suddenly appeared on the edge of the sky, and in a few breaths, they came to the top of this mountain. Fang Yan only felt that his eyes were flowering, and there were three more men and one woman in front of him.
Looking at the few people who suddenly appeared in front of him, Elder Zhong frowned unconsciously, snorted coldly, and asked knowingly, "Hmph, how did you get out of the mountain?" ”
"Hehe, Zhong Shusheng, why do you ask knowingly, we are naturally here for him." A man in a green shirt pointed to the dialect and laughed, "How can we let you have such a good thing to yourself?" ”
"Hmph." The corners of Elder Zhong's mouth twitched, and he snorted heavily, but he didn't say anything to be self-deprecating. After all, these people in front of him are all existences with the same strength as him. Everyone knew what he was looking for in tongues. If he says anything to deny it, it will only make people laugh.
"Haha." Looking at Elder Zhong, whose face was ugly, the man in the green shirt laughed loudly and said, "Scholar Zhong, you don't have to put a stinky face on us. We're here, but it's not like you're out of the blue. You're just a few more competitors, and as long as you can find a way to get this kid to voluntarily give you the pill, we have nothing to say. ”
"Hmph, you'd better ask this kid if he wants to take out the pill first." Elder Zhong said angrily, "If this kid refuses to take out that thing, you will also run for nothing." ”
"Hehe, it depends on whether you are willing to bleed." The man in the green shirt turned his head to look at Fang Yan, looked at him for a while, and then asked, "You little guy is the Fang Yan who turned the Qingyun Mountain Range upside down." ”
"Disciple dialect, I have met the elders." Fang Yan hurriedly saluted the few elders in front of him who couldn't see their strength. But he sighed in his heart. These people were not the people he was expecting.
Judging by Elder Zhong's attitude, these people were obviously elder-level figures. According to what Elder Zhong had said before, people of this level would not have access to the information of the Yuanshi Mountain Range at all. In other words, it is simply impossible for him to save his father by them.
The man in the green shirt waved his hand and went straight to the point: "Boy, don't be polite, let me ask you, do you have an elixir that can quickly recover from injuries?" ”
After hearing the words of the man in green shirts, the other three people who came with him all focused their eyes on him at the same time.
Feeling the somewhat suppressed gaze of this Dao, Fang Yan took a deep breath and nodded: "Yes." ”
Listening to Fang Yan's own admit, the faces of the four later elders couldn't help but have a look of excitement on their faces.
"Then how many of these elixirs do you have on you?" The man in the green shirt said happily.
Hearing this, Fang Yan had to repeat helplessly: "Back to the elders, all the pills on the disciple's body have been snatched away. ”
"Snatched?" The man in the green shirt chuckled lightly and said, "However, according to the information we just got, those boys have been carefully searching for three or four days on the mountain where you threw the pills, but they only found seven pills that are too ordinary to be ordinary. Don't tell me that you relied on those pills to recover from your injuries. ”
Fang Yan bowed his head and was silent, but the corners of his mouth hooked up a smug smile. Fleeting.
"Fang boy, you are not simple, you actually played everyone again." The man in the green shirt glanced at him meaningfully and said, "At this time, don't play tricks with us." You can answer with confidence. Although your elixir is worth a lot of money, in this Qingyun Peak, no one dares to do anything to rob it, not even us elders. If someone really wants to be unfavorable to you, the law enforcement elders in the door will not be the first to agree. Otherwise, if we really dared to break the rules and rob your elixir, we would have done it long ago when we were in the mountains. We are indeed very interested in your elixir, but we do not intend to take advantage of you, we will offer you something that satisfies you, a fair exchange. ”
Fang Yan sneered in his heart, he naturally wouldn't believe all the words that seemed to be true or false. He was even more unconvinced of the so-called rules. Because he knows that in the face of a sufficiently large interest, any rule is extremely weak. It is impossible to be fair if two parties with such a big difference in strength want to make an exchange, and the weaker side is doomed to suffer.
However, he also knew that the fact that he had a magic elixir on his body had become known to everyone, and these people would not dare to do anything that would lose their identity, no matter how bold they were. If they want to get the elixir from him, they can only find a way to get themselves to hand it over voluntarily. That's why he said these righteous and awe-inspiring words.
Fang Yan knew that sooner or later someone would ask him this question, and he had already thought of a way to deal with it. I saw that he glanced at the man in green shirt carefully, his face was embarrassed, and he was silent.
"What? Can't you trust us? Seeing that Fang Yan was silent, the man in the green shirt suddenly became a little displeased, and said, "Boy Fang, do you still think that we elders are all people who covet the things of the juniors?" ”
