Chapter 54: Bargaining
"Jingwen, how is my mother feeling today?"
"I really don't know! Since welcoming back the body of the Holy King, the Queen has become extremely indifferent, and there are few smiles on her face, and it is the same today!"
Ji Na felt uneasy when she heard this, she knew her own affairs, the apprehension of tasting the forbidden fruit for the first time, coupled with the embarrassment of being nameless and pointless, if her mother was angry later, I am afraid that Luo Cheng would not be able to come to the stage, it would be very unpleasant.

Thinking of this, Ji Na turned around and walked to Luo Cheng's side, and whispered: "Luo Cheng, you and Brother Situ will wait here for a while, and they will go first to see the situation, okay?"
Luo Cheng happened to not know how to deal with his mother-in-law, and when he heard this, he readily agreed, and it was a while to hide for a while, so he had to cover his ears and steal the bell first.
Seeing the two girls gracefully walking into the hall that originally belonged to the Batian, Luo Cheng's heart couldn't help but jump, so that he didn't even hear what Situ Lei was saying.
Situ Lei saw that Luo Cheng had been distracted since he came to the island, so he patted him on the shoulder vigorously and said, "Could it be that that girl is more powerful than Lao Tzu's kiss Yuelou?" Luo Cheng, Luo ...... Cheng, you kid is thick-skinned, and you won't suffer a loss when you call your mother-in-law!"
Under the pain, Luo Chengcai's soul returned to its place, he didn't want to show weakness in front of the big thief, and said nonsense: "Lao Tzu is worried about the martial arts conference after the year, how can such a trivial matter be taken to heart, big thief, you still have to worry about yourself, don't go to Luo Jingjing to enter the door of the mother's boudoir, I can't say that I have to come to Lao Tzu to cry!"
"Fuck your shit!"
Situ Lei said angrily: "Open your dog's eyes and see clearly, Lao Tzu is a dignified man, he will eat deflated on women, Lao Tzu kindly reminded you of this stinky boy, but you are treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, and I don't want to let Lao Tzu help you with good words!"
Although Situ Lei's appearance and temperament are really 108,000 miles away from manhood, but seeing that the big thief seems to be really angry, Luo Cheng had to smile and say: "The kid is unscrupulous, Brother Lei doesn't care about the villain, I still have to learn more from the eldest brother, don't be angry, the kid is a little nervous now, if you can take a few bites...... Hey, hey!"
Situ Lei was really angry with Luo Cheng, took out his beloved wooden gourd from his arms, shook it over, and said: "Look at your cowardice, virtuous!
"Goo, goo......"
"Refreshing!"
Luo Cheng drank the wine jug to the bottom, greatly relieved, he smiled and threw the gourd to the other party and said: "Brother Situ, look, these houses seem to have been repaired, and this main hall is covered with glazed tiles, and a full moon made of white jade is added on the top, which seems to have spent a lot of manpower and material resources." When you passed by the city gate just now, did you notice that those miscellaneous coolies seemed to be forced, and Aunt Ji would not have done such a violent thing?"
"Reasonable?"
Situ Lei raised the gourd above his head, licked the few drops of wine left on the mouth of the bottle, and said: "If everything is reasonable, there should be no rich and poor, and there should be emperors and beggars.
"Alas......"
Luo Cheng muttered: "Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs, can Luo Cheng really change this unbearable world?"
At this moment, the sound of fierce quarrels came out of the hall, and it could still be heard from the door, which showed how much the mother and daughter inside were arguing, and Luo Cheng, as the party concerned, couldn't bear it anymore, and strode forward to push open the closed gold-lacquered door.
Unexpectedly, the gate was suddenly opened, and Ji Na rushed out of it crying, and without even saying hello to Luo Cheng, she ran along the bluestone avenue to the city gate. Luo Cheng hurriedly glanced at Situ Lei, and walked towards the hall himself.
In the main hall, for a long time, the mermaid queen Ji Wushuang was standing tall, but her relatively petite body was sitting on the huge golden dragon seat, and the elders of the clan were sitting on both sides, all bowing their heads and saying nothing......
Ji Wushuang said flatly: "Cheng'er, you're here! Come forward and let Aunt Ji take a look!"
Hearing this, Luo Cheng stepped forward quickly, and walked straight to the position of Elder Si Yu who was in the first place before stopping, he raised his head slightly to make his eyes meet Ji Wushuang's gaze, and said: "Seeing that Aunt Ji's demeanor is still the same, Cheng'er is overjoyed, Luo Cheng came this time to send Nana home." The New Year is approaching, and Cheng'er still wants to eat here!"
"Hehehe......"
Even if Ji Wushuang smiled with no expression on his face, Luo Cheng couldn't help but wonder how she did it, looking left and right, Elder Si Yu on the side was staring at him, and before he could react, Ji Wushuang's voice came to his ears again: "Cheng'er, you are now the abbot of Beichan Temple, you are in a high position, and you can still think of coming to see Aunt Ji, Aunt Ji is very happy." But ......"
Although Luo Cheng faintly felt that something was wrong, he didn't know what the problem was, and when he looked at Elder Si Yu again, the old man had already lowered his head, and it seemed that he was about to fall asleep. He had to turn his head and ask, "Aunt Ji, but how?"
Ji Wushuang's gaze turned cold for a moment, and he said angrily: "You are so bold, you dare to despise the princess of my mermaid clan, what crime should you be guilty of?"
When it was too late, the golden lacquer gate of the main hall closed in response, and two teams of mermaid female warriors walked out quickly from behind the screens on both sides, each holding a crossbow in their hands, surrounding Luo Cheng, looking at the blue-green quenched arrow, Luo Cheng knew that Ji Wushuang was not joking with himself.
In fact, the moment he stepped into the door, he already knew the layout of the hall, he dared to walk in, he was not afraid that the other party would kill him, at this moment he ignored the eyes of the people around him, and said eloquently: "Luo Cheng and Nana are truly in love with each other, where to start with frivolous things?" But this matter did not first show his parents, it was Luo Cheng's negligence, Luo Cheng is willing to hire three media and six hires, marry Princess Jina, please ask the queen for permission!"
"Humph!"
Ji Wushuang said: "It's not too late to hold an umbrella until it rains, and to build a house when you're happy?"
Luo Cheng looked at the people around him and said with a smile: "It's definitely not too late! What does the queen want, you might as well say it directly, with this kind of trick, won't you lose your worth?"
"Ha-ha-ha!"
Ji Wushuang laughed three times, with a wave of his jade hand, the mermaid warrior retreated like a tide in an instant, and the next Elder Si Yu couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, today's situation is indeed the fault of the mermaid clan, this kind of hospitality really makes the old man embarrassed. However, the queen has made this decision, and she, an elder, has no choice, the expansion of more than half a year has made her haggard at the same time, but also deeply worried about the future of the mermaid clan, is it possible that the life without conflict with the world is coming to an end, and even the mermaid clan will be involved in the whirlpool of the struggle?
Sure enough, Ji Wushuang was silent for a moment and said, "As the son-in-law of the mermaid clan, Cheng'er, this dowry is not light!"
Luo Chengdao: "Aunt Ji, please speak directly, Cheng'er listens!"
Ji Wushuang stood up, took out a scroll from his arms, and threw it down, Luo Cheng reached out to take it, unfolded it and looked at it carefully. At a glance, Luo Cheng's eyebrows were tangled together, and he was covered in cold sweat, and he said in a trembling voice: "There are 20,000 adult men, helping to attack Huizhou, why? Aunt Ji, what is this for?"
Ji Wushuang sat down gently, put his hands on the golden dragon gauntlet, leaned back comfortably, and asked without answering: "Cheng'er, do you want to regret it?"
"Forgive me!"
Luo Cheng tore the scroll to shreds and threw it to the Golden Palace, and the confetti suddenly flew all over the sky, floating everywhere, but Ji Wushuang didn't care, he waved away the crumbs in front of him casually, and said with a slight smile: "Luo Cheng, the treasure you took away from me at the beginning can not only buy 20,000 slaves in the cattle and horse market, but you don't have to be rude, is this the measure of the abbot of Beichan Temple?"
Luo Cheng said angrily: "The matter of slaves, Luo Cheng does not dare to obey his fate, I will return the gold to Aunt Ji as soon as possible, Luo Cheng will leave!"
"Please stay!"
Ji Wushuang said: "Could it be that you took advantage of my daughter and wrote it off like this, Cheng'er, you can't be like this!"
was caught by Ji Wushuang for this weakness, and Luo Cheng had no choice but to turn around and say, "What does the queen command?"
Ji Wushuang's face finally flashed a smug smile, and his red lips opened lightly: "I heard that during the Lantern Festival, the Moon Mansion will hold a martial arts conference in Luojing, Cheng'er, Aunt Ji's request is very simple, help me kill Qian Lao Liu of the Bahai League and Meng Jiyao, the governor of Huizhou!"
Luo Cheng's heart chuckled, knowing that Ji Wushuang was in charge of retreating, and the other party knew his temperament well, and knew that he would not agree to the slave trade and the unreasonable request of the raider, so it would be difficult for him to refuse. In fact, assassinating important people is Ji Wushuang's real purpose, and at that time, Huizhou will be in chaos, and Ji Wushuang will go a lot smoother if he wants to take millet from the fire. Thinking of this, Luo Cheng said weakly: "Aunt Ji, the abbot of the dignified Beichan Temple wants to be an assassin, it seems to be ......"
"The abbot of the dignified Beichan Temple is a thief who steals incense and jade......"
Ji Wushuang said charmingly: "I don't know if this news will be more exciting when it is released!"
"Your Majesty!"
Luo Cheng said fiercely: "Luo Cheng has been taught this time!
"This king is waiting for your good news! Cheng'er, I won't send it far!"
Luo Cheng stepped on the smooth floor tiles as if he was angry, and walked away quickly, but there was Ji Wushuang's crazy laughter behind him, Luo Cheng didn't understand why the kind and kind Aunt Ji became like this, he covered his ears and ran to the beach, even if he was down in the past, he had never been so depressed, the feeling of being betrayed by his relatives was not comfortable, Luo Cheng finally understood why Ji Na was crying just now, even his own daughter couldn't understand, how could he see Ji Wushuang through?
When Luo Cheng found Ji Na on the beach, the eldest girl was already crying into a tearful person, and Situ Lei, who was guarding the side, was also helpless, and Luo Cheng helplessly spread his hands, Luo Cheng stepped forward and hugged Ji Na, hugged her tightly in his arms, patted Yu on the back and said, "It's okay, Nana, everything will be fine!"
Ji Na said hysterically: "Luo Cheng, take me away! Let's go away with Xiaoyu and Yun'er, and never come back, okay?"
With so many worries, how could Luo Cheng leave, his heart couldn't help but entangle, he couldn't breathe in pain, he was really in the rivers and lakes, and he couldn't help himself......
