Chapter 166: Night Battle (6)
The monk was seriously wounded, and at this time he was almost half-lying on the top of the people who were supporting him, but he still held his spirits: "I have only heard of it...... Sumeru Fetus ...... Sumeru Fetus ...... That's what you refine, right!?"
Li Bochen was stunned for a moment—the monk was talking about the Sumeru fetus he had eaten before, right? At that time, he said that it was refined with the wooden fetus of the Sumeru people, and he still felt that refining that thing with a "fetus"—even if it was a fetus of the Sumeru people—really made people's scalps tingle.
But now that I see it, the perception is different.
Because although this thing looks like a human face, it actually looks more like a large ginseng plant to the touch. It's not warm, it's cold, and it's like a big radish.
Xu saw that Li Bochen was speaking kindly at this time, and the rich man beside the monk asked, "Mr. Qi, what is the Sumeru fetus?"
The monk shook his head, turned his face and glanced into the courtyard, and said in a deep voice, "Sumeru...... Refining into elixir, raising the flesh and bones of the dead! It is a treasure!"
After saying this, he raised his hand and saluted Li Bochen: "Li Yingying killed the evil demons, he deserved this treasure!"
Li Bochen held this thing and looked at the people around him. It should all be in the Jinghui Building, and they are all very embarrassed. When they fought with Yelu before, these people were probably worried about their lives, so they couldn't think about anything else. But at this time, the crisis has been removed, and it can be seen that many people have a layer of gloom on their faces - Jinghui Building has suffered great losses after this burning. Not to mention those in charge, even those who are working in the building should also worry about their future lives.
The people here deserve a reputation for generosity and heroism, but not everyone is like that.
He thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, are there any people in the Ming Society here?"
The people around were stunned, and after a while, the monk surnamed Qi said, "...... The hero asks what this is for?"
Li Bochen said: "Ask a little bit." ”
Having said that, he still killed the Sumeru people, and no one dared not answer his "idle question". The woman in charge of the matter exclaimed, "I...... I am. ”
Li Bochen looked at her and nodded: "I saw three people coming to the courtyard before. One is named Hun San'er, the other is the shopkeeper of the Liuhe Warehouse, and the other is the guy from Li Zhu'er's restaurant at the South Gate - who knows why they came here in the middle of the night?"
The people were silent for a while, and the monk's face slowly changed, and he said, "Li Yingying...... We people don't have anything to do with the demons no matter what......"
Li Bochen smiled: "Mr. Qi, don't be careful, let's ask." ”
The female boss gritted her teeth: "I know this." Don't believe it-that Hun San'er got a cart of bamboo shoots in the building a few days ago, and tonight somehow suddenly came to ask for money - it was all settled before. ”
"The shopkeeper of the Qin family's unpacking library - let's also put the rest of the money in the unpacking treasury to make money, he also came for money last night. The guy at Li Zhu'er's restaurant said that a guest in the building called his family's food and came to deliver it. But when I asked, there was no guest. ”
She stared at Li Bochen: "It's all a coincidence, it's all the truth, you mean it...... These people are all involved with that Sumeru person?"
Li Bochen looked at her as if she was not fake, and the other two people also nodded slightly when she spoke, and felt that it should indeed be the truth. Ye Lu also said that they didn't know why they were here tonight, and that the man was arrogant and perverse, and would not lie in such a small place.
When he asked about it, he just wanted to find out. There are indeed people in the Jinghui Building, and they should not know that they are all used by Ye Lu.
So he smiled: "I don't think so." I don't have to worry about this - I have one more thing to ask about this manager. If I want to help Miss Qiao redeem herself, how much should I pay?"
These people were stunned when they heard this, and subconsciously turned their faces to look into the distance - Lin Qiao was leaning on the cotton curtain and half-lying, and a maid got hot soup out of nowhere and was feeding it to her. She looked very sad, and there was a scratch on her cheek, as if she had just fallen hard and had not yet woken up.
But with such messy sideburns and misty eyes, it looks even more pitiful. In the distance, the firelight reflected her hair reddening slightly, as if she had come out of a painting. Even if you see her in the sky, you should sigh in your heart: What a beautiful person with a beautiful country.
The head retracted his gaze and said, "Li ...... I can't make up my mind about this matter, and I have to have the big boss to have the final say. ”
The monk was silent for a moment, and then said in a low voice, "Li ...... Sir, although these girls in the building have fallen into the dust, they usually don't treat them badly. Many of them were originally daughters of good families, forced to make ends meet. If...... If you want to ......"
When Li Bochen heard this, he knew that they would be wrong. With a force, he twisted the head of the writhing Sumeru fetus with a click, and said, "Mr. Qi, I see that you know that this Sumeru fetus is also a cultivator, so there should be a way to find out what to do with it." ”
"What happened tonight was caused by me, and I should make amends. But there is not much money on him, so should he use this Sumeru fetus to compensate for this Jinghui Building, and then change it to a Qiao girl?"
The monk and the master were stunned for a moment, and their eyes widened. Li Bochen waved his hand and said: "It's because I have an old relationship with her, I don't want her to suffer here, and I don't have any other thoughts." ”
They were stunned for a while, and then the monk's face turned red all of a sudden, and he said in a loud voice: "Li Yingying, I'm really sorry, it's because I want to go wrong, I want to go wrong, alas!"
The head looked at the monk, and then at Li Bochen, and he didn't know what to say for a while. But next to her, there was a woman who looked like a maid and whispered, "This is also a good thing...... Zheng's mother, the big boss will also be happy. ”
The head of the matter rolled his eyes around, sighed in the end, and said, "Then I'll ask her." ”
With that, he slowly walked away.
Li Bochen could see that she should be a little reluctant. Maybe I don't understand how much the Sumeru fetus is worth, or maybe I can't bear Lin Qiao's red card. But when he asked about it at this time, he also knew that the time was right. Although he didn't want to do things that oppressed people with power, these people could see his skills just now, and they shouldn't dare to annoy himself. In normal times, this boss should have many reasons to shirk the prevarication, and if it is not good, it will cause big trouble.
Li Bochen saw her walking over, leaned over and said a few words to Lin Qiao.
Lin Qiao seemed to be still confused, and was stunned for a while. The head pointed to this side, Lin Qiao turned his face to look, and two strings of tears fell at once.
Li Bochen's heart was relieved, thinking that it should be done.
I had to take her away. Not to mention her mother's kindness to Chang Tingwei's rescue, and she herself sold herself in exchange for her brother's life - if the other people in the Kongming Society were to find it in the future, Lin Qiao would also be in great trouble, and if she didn't die.
Although I don't know where to stay at the moment, I can temporarily take her out of danger, but it is also within my power.
