Chapter 551: Selling the Golden Nest (3)
Ji Yifan didn't make his words clear, but everyone tacitly treated each of the reasons, because Cheng Yinni, the owner of Shui Yuefu, was here, and Ji Haitang didn't dare to make a mistake.
After one after another bloody corpses passed by everyone, Ruan Zhinan, who sighed for a long time, asked again: "Are all those dead people because they entered the hunting ground? Is it that entering the hunting ground is the only way to die?"
"Of course not!" Ji Yifan immediately gave a negative answer, and patiently explained after a while: "Although the gold nest is a place to sell gold, what is important is that you and I are willing."
If the people who entered the hunting grounds repented on the way, someone would take them out safely. Even hunters who pay for hunting do not raise any objections, otherwise they will be driven out of the paradise on earth according to the rules. ”
"Why did they die inside when they had a chance to leave the hunting ground?" Ruan Zhinan's inquiring tone had already begun to become urgent, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.
Ji Yifan chuckled and said, "Because once they leave, they won't be able to get the hunter's bounty, so they lose the meaning of going in." ”
Nguyen Zhi Nam said: "Why did they go in? Just for the money?"
"That's right, it's just for the money!" Ji Yifan replied with great certainty: "Every expense in the gold nest is often tens of thousands of taels, how can they afford so much consumption without money? But they often don't have so much money, so they can only find ways to make money."
The only two fastest ways to make money in the gold nest are casinos and hunting grounds, each of which carries great risks. The situation in the casino is changing, some people can make a fortune and live a prosperous life, and some people are not as good as pigs and dogs in this family.
The hunters in the hunting grounds come here for fun, and they enjoy the sound of swords being inserted into human flesh, the sight of human blood splashing, and the wailing and screaming of their prey...... Although this deformed way of seeking pleasure is very inhumane, it is still the same sentence: you love me, and you have nothing to do with others. ”
"This is disrespectful to life, and even more irresponsible to oneself!" Ruan Zhinan's sudden roar startled all passers-by, not to mention the few people who came into close contact with him.
After hesitating for a while, Ji Yifan sighed a little helplessly: "This path was chosen by themselves, and they insisted on going to the Hades Palace, what can we onlookers do?"
I tried to dissuade me a long time ago, but no one would listen to me. On the contrary, they see me as a wicked person who hinders their access to money. ”
In order to alleviate the resentment and doubts in Ruan Zhinan's heart, Gu Huaiyan took the initiative to step forward and hold his hand: "Life is precious, but people's greed is often much greater than we imagined...... If it weren't for that, they wouldn't have walked in here. ”
Ruan Zhinan was very confused and tapped his head: "Since the greed of knowing people is endless, why does Ji Haitang still open this golden nest?"
Cheng Yinnie, who had been silent, then spoke: "Because Ji Haitang's greed is even more than those people, otherwise why would he kidnap Boss Ye?"
After a short pause, he turned his gaze to Ji Yifan again: "But I believe that with a kind person like Ji Shaoxia by his side, Young Master Ji Haitang should not collect those ill-gotten gains?"
Thanking him for his loyalty to the Lord, Cheng Yinni didn't deliberately say those embarrassing words, and after ridiculing in a half-joking and half-serious tone, the group happened to walk in front of Ji Haitang's courtyard.
There are countless pavilions and pavilions standing majestically, and the houses are tall and ornate. The criss-crossing corridors look very delicate, and the birds and flowers are quite meaningful.
After entering the inner hall, everyone looked fixedly, and most of the items used to decorate were rare objects from the Central Plains, which were dazzling and very eye-catching.
Although the grand and luxurious hall is decorated with all kinds of antiques, calligraphy and paintings and intricately carved ornaments, it is not crowded and redundant at all.
It's just that after entering the door, there is always a gloomy atmosphere in the hall where the sun is not visible, and the only bright and spacious things are the windows, but they are not solemn at all.
Hearing Ji Yifan's report, Ji Haitang slowly came with a white candle in his hand, obviously his face was full of friendly smiles, and it was full of goosebumps to look at.
"Welcome to the Paradise on Earth, please come with me to the inner room to drink a cup of tea to quench your thirst!"
After Ji Haitang's footsteps stepped into another door, a strong fragrance in the darkness instantly baptized everyone's noses.
The so-called extreme must be the opposite, but the fragrance that originally smelled very comfortable made people frown because it was too strong, and even Xiang Yang, who was a woman, couldn't help complaining.
"Young Master Ji, what kind of smell is this?, why is it so strong, it's about to choke people to death!"
Although he was accustomed to the darkness of the Netherworld, Lou Shenghao still lit all the candles in the room with a snap of his fingers carrying true qi.
When the light came to everyone's eyes, Ji Haitang covered the incense box with a smile: "Since the girl doesn't like the smell in my bedroom, I'll put it away here." ”
The scenery that caught everyone's eyes really surprised everyone, Ji Haitang's bedroom was really ridiculously big. In addition to the jade bed under the golden gauze tent in the distance, the whole house can be described as a beautiful scenery, rockeries, windmills, flowers, green plants, ponds...... There is no shortage of one.
The girl had even opened her mouth into a circle, and grabbed it a few times in the air with both hands: "I've grown so big, it's the first time I've seen someone raise a garden in the bedroom." ”
Gu Huaiyan smiled and knocked on Xiang Yang's head: "This is called the world is big, there are no surprises! ”
After a moment of surprise, Xiang Yang said in a slightly regretful tone: "It's a pity that the palace master didn't come with us, otherwise she would definitely like the scenery here." ”
Without waiting for Gu Huaiyan to reply, Xiang Yang pinched his waist by himself, and his little face looked a little proud: "But the garden in front of the Hui Yan Pavilion is several times more beautiful than here! When the time comes, I will order someone to move the bed to the garden, and I won't have such a big bedroom! Childe, do you say?"
"Are you sure this method works, won't it be strange for you to sleep in the garden?" Gu Huaiyan asked quietly with a forced smile.
Xiang Yang shook his hair very chicly: "What's so strange about that! I'm going to be the first person to sleep in the garden, maybe this move can become a legend in the martial arts!"
After listening to the conversation between the two, Cheng Yinni on the side couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Xiang Yang: "It is worthy of being the Xiang Da Protector of the Snow God Palace, it is really a good idea!"
"Lord Castle Lord! Hahaha......"
Lou Shenghao quickly twisted his head to where Xiang Yang was, and a pair of eyes quickly scanned her body, although the time was short but extremely detailed.
When he approached Gu Huaiyan's side as if nothing had happened, a pair of hands seemed to inadvertently and deliberately skim Xiang Yang's Tianchi blood, and he suddenly thought about it in his heart.
What attracted Lou Shenghao was not Xiang Yang's hearty pride with a hint of girlish innocence, but her identity and her name.
"The Great Protector of the Snow God Palace, Xiang Yang - it was she who killed my dragon ghost and broke the succubus's arm. This woman who is gentle and reveals a little heroism, her internal strength is not bad. ”
When everyone gathered on the spacious tea table, Ji Yifan brought two wooden boxes and put them on the table at the right time: "Young Master Qiqi, everything you want is here." ”
Holding the wooden box in his arms, Ji Haitang said very seriously: "You retreat! No one is allowed to enter unless I order it." ”
Before Ji Yifan turned around, Lou Shenghao glanced at Ji Haitang with an unusually disdainful look, and this glance alone frightened his hand holding the box to tremble, his heart was cold, and his eyes drooped unnaturally.
Although he had already heard the sound of the wooden box colliding, Ji Yifan, who had always taken obedience to orders as his duty, walked out without looking back.
After a cup of tea, Ji Haitang calmly placed the two wooden boxes in front of Lou Shenghao and Cheng Yinni, and said with a smile: "These two boxes contain the fragments of "Water Moon Fu" and "Dragon Breath Emperor Shadow Divine Skill", one is to return the things to the original owner, and the other is to urgently need people. ”
Lou Shenghao, who crossed his hands in front of his chest, pouted vigorously: "It's the first time I've seen a bad guy say that he is so great." ”
The two are rivals, and it is appropriate to look at each other unpleasantly and bury each other a few words. What's more, Ji Haitang was once unable to practice superior martial arts because he was abolished by Lou Shenghao for most of his internal strength, and he has always been worried about this matter for many years.
However, he is a filial son, and he knows how difficult it is for his father to raise him alone, and he will not attack Lou Shenghao unless he has to obey his father's last words.
But some words are really uncomfortable in my heart, and after taking a sip of the teacup, Ji Haitang reluctantly laughed: "Why did the emperor say this? I don't know what you are dissatisfied with in the next place, why do you repeatedly make insulting remarks against me? The secret book in front of you was made by my father before his death, and this is the only one in the world, what else do you want me to do?"
"Knowingly, you're really going to be coy. ”
After saying this, Lou Shenghao dragged the wooden box into his hand, took out the secret note, and stuffed it into Gu Huaiyan's hand: "I'm afraid that I will lose it, you can keep it for me for the time being, and return it to me when you return to the Central Plains." ”
After a while, he threw the box containing the secret note to Xiang Yang's side: "The carving skills of this wooden box are extraordinary, so I will give you some jewelry!"
Xiang Yang, who was busy drinking tea, replied without raising his head: "Thank you Emperor for your kindness, but Xiang Yang has never loved Linlang Zhuyu, you should stay in this box as a souvenir!"
Compared with before, Lou Shenghao was very bold when he focused his eyes on Xiang Yang for the second time: "Xiang girl only has a silver ribbon tied to her head, and her elegant and chic is also in line with your heroic temperament." But as a girl, how can you not wear jewelry, how about I accompany you to the gold building to buy some jewelry?"
"This ...... It's not suitable, isn't it?" Xiang Yang, who was in embarrassment, pushed the wooden box to Lou Shenghao, she was also worried that Lou Shenghao would be unfavorable to her because of the succubus and the ghost.
Gu Huaiyan, who had a serious face, poked the secret note twice with his fingers, and then put his other hand on Xiang Yang's shoulder: "Go, the emperor won't be unable to pay the bill, your worries are unnecessary." ”
Xiang Yang, who quickly understood, immediately got up and walked to Lou Shenghao: "In this way, Xiang Yang has thanked the emperor here." ”
Lou Shenghao nodded with a smile: "Meeting is fate, don't be polite to me." ”
Before the two of them were about to leave, Cheng Yinni threw the empty wooden box into Ruan Zhinan's hand: "Zhinan, do you want to go with you?" I'm afraid that little Meng'er in our family should also buy some jewelry. ”
Xiang Yang, who wished that someone was escorting him, clapped his palms happily: "Okay, okay, then let's go together! After all, there are more people to be lively!"
Ruan Zhinan, who had heard a little about the matter of Diexiu Valley, agreed to the matter without saying a word, and Ji Haitang suddenly shook his head in a weird way: "None of the things in the Pinjin Building are inexpensive, so Xiang Girl should be cautious when choosing." ”
He was obviously reminding Xiang Yang, but inside he was mocking Lou Shenghao for not being able to pay the silver.
"It's okay, there should be a pawnshop in the gold building, let's exchange this box for some silver." A gunpowder smoke that could erupt at any time was dissipated by Nguyen Chi Nam's wit.
He Zhi and Fang Pu, who entered the Pinjin Building one step ahead of the three of them, were already sitting in the restaurant with two stacks of silver tickets in their hands.
After the last piece of braised pork was put into his stomach, Fang Pu couldn't help but burp: "You said that the kid surnamed Ji will really enjoy it, making this place as magnificent as the palace, no wonder it is called a nest of paradise on earth!"
He Zhi was very unimpressed by this, and he spoke very gently as he chewed slowly: "The paradise of the world pursued by the nest of paradise on earth...... Most of them are attached to money. ”
Looking at the hurried and brightly dressed guests, Fang Pu smiled and said: "People say that money can make ghosts grind, but in my opinion, it has now reached the era when money can make ghosts push ghosts." ”
After a pause, she dragged her chin and sighed again: "Brother Zhi, when we passed by the hunting ground just now...... Did you hear the screams inside and the sound of blood splattering on the walls?"
After a small silence, He Zhicai nodded helplessly: "If you have money, you can wantonly trample on the lives of others, and if you don't have money, you have to exchange your life for money, what's the point?"
Turning his head to look at the two thick stacks of silver tickets on the table, Fang Pu blinked his eyes very seriously: "To tell you the truth, if I can have a second chance to be reincarnated, I am also very willing to throw it into Zhong Liyou's mother's belly! ”
