Chapter 523: Huge Sums of Money
Looking at this middle-aged man's troubled appearance, it didn't look like he was fooling himself again, but Huang Yuchen was unlucky enough today, and he still couldn't believe the person in front of him immediately.
"Senior, you said that Uncle Xiao asked you to do this, can I know why? Besides, how do I know that what you said must be true. Huang Yuchen stood at a distance of about two zhang from the middle-aged man, and spoke cautiously. If this middle-aged man didn't lie, then this person must have known Xiao Yibo, and there may be some deviations in what he thought before.
"Why?" the middle-aged man smiled mysteriously, and did not directly answer Huang Yuchen's question, then reached into his arms, took out a pale golden token from his arms, and threw it straight at Huang Yuchen.
Huang Yuchen subconsciously caught it, dragged the slightly heavy token in his hand, looked at it fixedly, and was stunned for a moment.
This token is nothing else, it is the city lord's order of the East Prince's Mansion, symbolizing the identity of the big city lord of the East Prince's Mansion, each token is specially made, and this piece in his hand belongs to Xiao Yibo.
Huang Yuchen's brows furrowed slightly, he looked up at the person in front of him, and asked softly, "Senior, who are you?"
The city lord's order of the East Wangfu symbolizes the identity of the city lord, but there are only four big city lords in the East Palace, and this city lord token is more of a symbolic meaning, the four city lords rarely bring this token on their bodies, and rarely show it, Huang Yuchen is still very young, in the palace hall, he has seen these big city lord orders. At that time, not long after the establishment of the four main cities, the city lord's order was only given to a few people later.
The castle lord's order was made by his own father, so the meaning of this token itself exceeds its value. Xiao Yibo was able to give this token to the middle-aged man in front of him, which shows that the relationship between the two of them is not ordinary.
"The deceased. The middle-aged man looked at Huang Yuchen with a smile on his face, his whole face can be divided into two parts, the side without scars, fair and handsome, with his whole image, it can be said that it is a jade tree in the wind. The scarred side is hideous and terrifying, giving people a strong and unspeakable sense of oppression.
Huang Yuchen really faced this person at this time, the scar on his face made his whole person have two different temperaments, it looked a little discordant, but this disharmony appeared on a person's body, which was very weird.
Huang Yuchen didn't speak, he held Xiao Yibo's city lord order in his hand, and stood quietly in place. By this time, he had already believed half of what the middle-aged man said.
Xiao Yibo must have been here, Huang Yuchen didn't believe that someone would go specifically to steal Xiao Yibo's city lord order, because it was useless to steal it, this token did not have the right to mobilize the army, it was just a symbolic item. Xiao Yibo handed the token to the middle-aged man in order to make himself believe what the man in front of him said.
However, both of them were at the Chihong Sect Main Peak, what could they not say to their faces, and they had to let themselves come into contact with a stranger?
Then, Huang Yuchen immediately felt that something was wrong, just now the middle-aged man said that if he fulfilled his conditions, he would protect his safety. What danger does he have in the Red Rainbow Sect? Obviously, if there is danger, it will not break out right now. Duanmu Huai will definitely use some means to test whether he is the person he is looking for, as for what kind of armor he has when he says about his ability, this is just a prevarication.
Judging from Duanmu Huai's attitude when he saw him for the first time, at least in a short period of time, he would definitely not let people do it to himself, and even if he wanted to do it to himself now, there were so many venerable masters of the Red Rainbow Sect, how could anyone stop it
?
"Where did Uncle Xiao go?" asked after a few breaths. He faintly felt that something was not quite right in his heart, Xiao Yibo must be hiding something by doing this, this matter is very likely to be related to himself, he got out of Xiao Yibo's sight, and it is very likely that he will investigate something alone. Moreover, there is a high probability that he will be in danger.
"I don't know. The middle-aged man said softly: "He has his own things to do, and I also have my things to do." Naturally, you also have your own things to do. You can't control his affairs, and he can't control your affairs. ”
The middle-aged man's words were ambiguous, and he said it as if he hadn't said anything, Huang Yuchen stood in place with a frown, not knowing what to do.
He had just come to the Red Rainbow Sect, and the only people he knew were a few people from the Sun Chasing Sect before, and these people seemed harmless to him, but God knows what they thought. Huang Yuchen himself didn't plan to stay in the Red Rainbow Sect for a long time, and when he figured out the purpose of the Red Rainbow Sect and the secret behind it, he would definitely leave here. And now Xiao Yibo left suddenly, making Huang Yuchen seem to have lost his backbone, and the whole person entered a strange environment, and a kind of pressure for no reason immediately appeared.
"What's the matter? Do you believe what I say?" The middle-aged man looked at Huang Yuchen with a smile, just sitting on the chair, and the little girl beside him stood aside obediently, staring at her big eyes, looking at Huang Yuchen curiously.
Huang Yuchen looked at the middle-aged man, then at the little girl beside him, thought for a moment, and said, "Senior, if the junior doesn't agree to your request, won't you be able to get out of this courtyard?"
"Yes. The middle-aged man said: "If you go out, you will die, so it is better to let me kill you." The look on his face did not change in the slightest, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
"The senior has a relationship with Uncle Xiao, why do you have to keep me? Why did you say that you wanted to kill me three times and twice?" Huang Yuchen was very puzzled by this matter, the first time he saw this middle-aged man, this person said three times and twice that he would kill him, as if he had no other way to go except to promise his conditions.
"Asked by my friend, I have agreed. The middle-aged man smiled indifferently, looked at Huang Yuchen, and said, "That's what your Uncle Xiao said, if you don't agree, let me kill you." ”
Huang Yuchen frowned, he didn't know why Xiao Yibo said this, and he couldn't understand his intentions, but looking at the appearance of this middle-aged man, it didn't seem to be a casual remark. If these things were arranged by Xiao Yibo, then now outside, it is likely that someone is not good for him, and it is the kind that is related to life and death. And since he entered the Red Rainbow Sect, he has only done one thing, and that is to compete with Li Ze.
Judging from this detail, in the competition between himself and Li Ze, two special fighting spirits were used, which is likely to cause others to look sideways. From this, it can be inferred that within the Red Rainbow Sect, there is not an iron pass, and some people do not want to appear in the Red Rainbow Sect, nor do they want Duanmu Huai to complete his purpose.
And he is likely to be an extremely important part of Duanmuhuai's plan, if someone wants to destroy Duanmuhuai's plan, then killing himself is the most direct way.
Xiao Yibo used such a means to inform himself of this matter, he must have known that he could think clearly, and the middle-aged man in front of him was not used to kill himself, but Xiao Yibo did not know what method to use, and found a reliable helper for himself.
Thinking about it, things seem to have become clear. Xiao Yibo was listening to some news, judging from what he had done, it was not the first time he had come to this Red Rainbow Sect, he and Chi
The relationship between Hongzong is not as simple as he himself said.
Since Xiao Yibo has already done this, he doesn't seem to have a way to break this deadlock, and the person who may make a move on himself must be something he can't contend with, otherwise Xiao Yibo won't use such a means to let others help him. It's just that Huang Yuchen doesn't know what the relationship between this middle-aged man and Xiao Yibo is, and to what extent he can protect himself.
"Someone is going to kill me?" After pondering for a while, Huang Yuchen did not answer the middle-aged man's words, but asked this question directly.
"Yes now, but if you agree to my terms, there will be none. The middle-aged man still looked at Huang Yuchen with an indifferent smile, and when Huang Yuchen was thinking, he didn't interrupt with words, giving Huang Yuchen enough time to let him think about the things clearly.
"Seniors. Huang Yuchen clasped his fists with his hands at the middle-aged man and said in a deep voice: "What are your conditions?"
Huang Yuchen decided that no matter what the middle-aged man said, he would agree. No matter what Xiao Yibo is planning, and no matter who the person who may target him, Huang Yuchen believes that Xiao Yibo will definitely not harm himself.
"Have you figured it out?" The middle-aged man's gaze at Huang Yuchen changed slightly, and his eyes flashed with essence: "This is not so easy to do. ”
"Figured it out. Huang Yuchen nodded and said: "Since the juniors will die if they go out now, it is better to agree to the requirements of the seniors, and there will still be a glimmer of life." When he said this, Huang Yuchen had already determined that the middle-aged man in front of him was definitely not an enemy, but if he insisted on leaving, he would definitely attack himself, and as for whether he would kill himself, this could not be determined.
"Good. The middle-aged man nodded, then stood up, reached out and wiped the head of the little girl next to him, smiled at her dotingly, and said, "Duo'er, you will follow this little brother for a while, go to the back mountain." ”
"Okay. The little girl Duo'er grinned at the middle-aged man and happily agreed.
Then the middle-aged man looked at Huang Yuchen and said softly: "Within seven days, I want 30,000 taels of silver, if you can do it, you will live here with me, if you can't do it, I will kill you." ”
"What?" Huang Yuchen was stunned when he heard this, he originally thought that the middle-aged man's request would be some lofty condition, such as letting himself show his fighting spirit to help him do something, or passing his test. Huang Yuchen never expected that this middle-aged man would actually ask himself for money?
"You...... Do you want silver?" Huang Yuchen blinked and confirmed to the middle-aged man again, what he said just now made Huang Yuchen a little unsure.
"Yes, 30,000 taels of silver, within seven days. The middle-aged man looked at Huang Yuchen and chuckled: "I will ask Duo'er to take you to the back mountain in a while, where all the disciples of the Red Rainbow Sect work to earn silver, no matter what method you use, within seven days, I will ask for 30,000 taels of silver." If you can't, I'll kill you myself. ”
"Forehead......" Huang Yuchen was stunned, he looked at the current small building, and then looked at the middle-aged man and the little girl in front of him, stretched out his hand and scratched his head, and said, "Senior, are you sure you only need silver?"
"Yes. The middle-aged man nodded again and said, "Don't think that this silver is just a small amount, I know that you are a disciple of the Dongwang Mansion, and 30,000 taels of silver may not be anything to you before, but you entered the Red Rainbow Sect penniless, 30,000 taels of silver, but the price is sky-high." This is your uncle's remuneration for hiring me, and you need to earn it back yourself. ”
Huang Yuchen was cold, it turned out that this was the case......
