Chapter 425: Temptation of Affection
"No, no, no!
At noon, Qin Ku faced Liu Xunyi's "bitter persuasion", only to feel that one head was two big, and his head was a mess.
"Why not?" Liu Xunyi chased after him and asked again, "It's rare that King Beixian looks at you differently, this is a good opportunity for you to ascend to the sky." ”
"One step to the sky, or one step to the west?" Qin pouted, "Although my life is not valuable, at least I hold it in my own hands." If it is sold to the Xianwang Mansion as a long-term worker, I am afraid that I will not want to be happy in this life. Looking for clothes, you know that I have always been lazy and lazy, unrestrained, and undisciplined. Luo Tianjin is famous, flaunting the morality of the rivers and lakes, if I work for him, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, stealing chickens and touching dogs will definitely have no chance, and even the livelihood of collecting money to buy his life will have to be closed. My hands were tight for a while, and I couldn't find a way to get some oil and water. No, no, when I think about it, I feel uncomfortable, and the more I think about it, the more scared I become. ”
"Brother Qin, you're not talking about the Xianwang Mansion, but the Shaolin Temple. Liu Xunyi smiled bitterly, "The Xianwang Mansion does not have as many rules as you think, flaunting the morality of the rivers and lakes, which does not mean that you will be Liuxiahui." As long as it's not a big treacherous evil, no one in the house will restrict your preferences. If you want to ...... You can eat, drink, prostitute and gamble. Of course, the premise is that you can't cause trouble everywhere in the name of the Xianwang Mansion. ”
"You know my background, Lao Tzu is carrying a basket of blood debts, and it's too late to take revenge, where can I do things for the Xian Wangfu?"
"That's why I want to recruit you into the Xian Wang's Mansion. Liu Xunyi said, "You are single-handed, no matter how powerful you are, you are invincible with two fists and four hands, and the good tiger can't stand the wolves." On the other hand, Qin Ming, as the head of the family, has a cloud of masters, and countless dead soldiers, how easy is it for you to seek revenge on him? If you go against the Qin Mansion, you must be the one who suffers. ”
Qin Ku's eyes widened and he refuted: "Lao Tzu is not afraid of death. ”
"Do you want to die with hatred?" Liu Xunyi choked and said, "How can you defeat thousands of troops and horses by riding alone? Why don't you join King Xian's Mansion and let us help you? Both, if you want to avenge the murder of your father, it is better to have the Xian Wangfu as the backing than to fight alone. ”
Qin Ku raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically, "Luo Tianjin is willing to help me take revenge?"
"I don't know. Liu Xunyi replied truthfully, "But I'm sure that if Qin Ming makes trouble for you, King Beixian can at least keep you safe." ”
"If you ask for help, you will be subject to others. Qin shook his head bitterly and said, "Over the years, without Luo Tianjin's protection of me, Lao Tzu would still be alive and well." Hey...... This deal is really not cost-effective. ”
"Okay!" Liu Xunyi's eyes moved, and he thought about it, and said tactfully, "Let's not talk about human feelings, just business." If joining the Xianwang Mansion can make you rich, would you consider it?"
Hearing this, Qin Ku's stubborn face suddenly changed, and a pair of small eyes fluttered and fluttered, as if he was repeatedly thinking about something in his heart.
"What do you mean by that?"
Liu Xunyi smiled mysteriously, and asked without answering: "You tried your best, but it was just for the word 'profit'." What if the Xian Wang's Mansion can give you more benefits?"
"More benefits?" Qin bitterly licked his tongue and asked curiously, "How much more?"
"How much can you earn now?"
Qin Ku frowned, and pretended to be profound: "As little as hundreds of thousands, as many as millions, or even more." ”
If your business is really prosperous, the first time I see you, you won't eat other people's leftovers. Liu Xunyi did not shy away from piercing, "In my opinion, you are rich and poor, and the day and night are unpredictable." When you have money, you are happy and spend money. When there is no money, he eats and drinks, like a beggar. If it weren't for King Beixian to come forward to relieve the siege last night, I'm afraid you would really have to cut off an arm and pay it to Patriarch Teng. ”
Being ruthlessly poked by Liu Xunyi's cowhide, Qin Ku couldn't help but blush, and said stubbornly: "Lao Tzu, this is called casualness." ”
"Casualness is chic of course, but unfortunately glory and wealth are all due to the will of God. Liu Xunyi jokingly said, "If you enter the Xianwang Mansion, you don't have to look at God's face anymore." As long as you have the ability, there is an opportunity to make money all the time, and it is thousands of real money at any time. ”
Hearing the words "real money", Qin Ku's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked, "Is this true?"
"When did I lie to you?" Liu Xunyi complained, "Do you know that the Xian Wang's Mansion is in charge of the Five Elements and Eight Masterpieces in the Luoyang area? Coupled with the reputation and status of the Northern Xian King in the martial arts, someone will send rare treasures every once in a while. The antique jade in the house is enough to pile up into a small mountain, and any one of them is a priceless treasure. Therefore, the most important thing in the Xianwang Mansion is gold, silver and jewelry, and the last thing that King Beixian cares about is these yellow and white things. You should have heard of the generous nature of Lord Luofu, but do you know how generous he is?"
"How far?" Qin Ku swallowed his saliva again and again, and couldn't wait to ask.
"I have only been in the mansion for two years, but the gold, silver and jewelry rewarded by the lord of the mansion are worth at least one million when combined. Liu Xunyi said seriously, "Not counting the monthly stipends received from the mansion every month, as well as the reward given by the lord of the mansion during the New Year's holidays." ”
As for this, Liu Xunyi suddenly lowered his voice and said slyly: "Of course, the biggest oil and water is when you go out on an errand. ”
Qin Ku's eyes lit up when he listened, and he hurriedly asked, "How big?"
"I was ordered to encircle and suppress the Yingchuan Donghu Gang, and every time he flattened a deal, he could get tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands. And this money ...... There is no need to hand it over to the government. Liu Xunyi smiled evilly.
"Gollum!"
Qin Ku involuntarily swallowed a mouthful of spit, his face was full of covetousness, and he sighed: "It's still easy for you to make money." ”
"Brother Qin, in fact, with your talent and martial arts, even if you are a river and ocean thief, you will also have a lot of money, and you will be full of gold and silver. Liu Xunyi's words changed sharply, and he said, "But you are not a traitor and a bully, but honestly make money with your own skills, which is enough to show that you are a righteous gentleman in your bones." You are greedy for money, but you will not do anything to do it. Whether you admit it or not, you are not a wicked person. ”
Seeing Liu Xunyi's earnest words, the banter on Qin Ku's face gradually subsided, and he laughed at himself: "My father died early, except for martial arts, all I have left is these big truths." Although he didn't want to hear it, he really didn't have any other thoughts, so he could only follow his old man's wish and try to be a person who was not too bad. ”
Qin Ku's words came from the bottom of his heart, and Liu Xunyi couldn't help but be moved.
"Xunyi, why did you insist on pulling me into the Xian Wang's Mansion? Is it just because of Luo Tianjin's order?"
"Recruiting you into the Xianwang Mansion is not only to fulfill the order of the mansion master, but also to consider your life and death future, and even for myself!"
"For you?"
"I'm the black fan of the Xianwang Mansion, and now there is a shortage of masters in the next three doors, if I can get your help, wouldn't it be a charcoal in the snow for me?" Liu Xunyi smiled lightly.
In fact, there is a more important reason why Liu Xunyi insisted on persuading Qin Ku to enter the mansion.
He wanted Qin Ku to take over from him in the future and take charge of the next three doors for Luo Tianjin.
Liu Xunyi is not a person in the rivers and lakes after all, and sooner or later he will leave the Xianwang Mansion. But after such a long period of "life and death", he has more or less true feelings for King Xian's Mansion, Luo Tianjin, and everyone in the mansion.
Liu Xunyi didn't want his sudden departure, which caused civil strife in the Xianwang Mansion, made Luo Tianjin lose an arm, and made the three sects of dragons leaderless.
Such an irresponsible departure is undoubtedly a guilt and debt in Liu Xunyi's heart.
Therefore, looking for a brave and resourceful successor in advance is a way to get the best of both worlds for Liu Xunyi.
Qin Ku, whether it is martial arts or courage, is not under Liu Xunyi. Its reputation and prestige in the rivers and lakes are even more than equal. If he takes over the position of black fan, it is indeed very suitable.
Because of this, Liu Xunyi will spare no effort to "not forgive" Qin Ku.
In his opinion, this move is a good thing to kill three birds with one stone. not only found a backer for Qin Ku, but also gathered talents for the Xianwang Mansion, and paved the way for his whole body to retreat.
"It's for the money...... And in your face, I can consider joining the Xianwang Mansion. Qin reluctantly agreed, "But I have three conditions, all of which are indispensable." ”
"You say. ”
"First, the Xianwang Mansion can't stop me from taking revenge. It doesn't matter if you want to help me or not. ”
"No problem. ”
Second, no one is allowed to interfere with Lao Tzu's happy life. As for the errand of the Xianwang Mansion, I can choose freely, if I don't want to do it, you can't force me. Of course, the money that should be given cannot be missing. ”
Liu Xunyi pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "As long as you are not a traitor, I can let you live freely." But the errand of the house is ...... I am the Black Fan, and I will do everything I can to give you the freedom to choose. If the lord of the mansion looks for you by name, there is nothing I can do, and you can't refuse either. How?"
"This ......" Qin Ku frowned and bargained, "As long as it doesn't involve the Hexi Qin clan, I can not refuse Luo Tianjin's errand." But afterwards, the reward is to be doubled. I know that the rewards of the next three disciples are all determined by the black fan, so you must not be stingy, how about it?"
"If I don't want to give my share, I will double it for you. In the face of Qin Ku's calculations, Liu Xunyi couldn't cry or laugh, and said helplessly, "As for the Qin clan in Hexi...... I believe that after you enter the mansion, the lord of the mansion will definitely find out your bottom clearly. Therefore, there is no need for you and me to talk too much, he will arrange it himself. ”
"That's very good. Qin Ku nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly his eyes rolled, and he said suspiciously, "Will Luo Tianjin betray Lao Tzu in order to please Qin Ming?"
"If the mansion master intended to curry favor with Qin Ming, he would not have stood up for Pan Baye and competed with the Qin family for the Xuanshui scroll. ”
"Like...... There is some truth. ”
"Tell me! What is the third condition?"
Hearing this, Qin Ku looked very good, and said with a smile: "No matter how bad I am, I am also a well-known 'ghost and sorrow' in the rivers and lakes, and I can't be worthy of being my master with a cat or a dog." If Luo Tianjin wants to take me under his command, he must at least prove that he has enough skills. ”
Liu Xunyi asked with interest: "How to prove it?"
"It's very simple!" Qin said with a bitter smile, "As long as Luo Tianjin can become the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, Lao Tzu will willingly join the Xianwang Mansion for him to drive in the future." ”
