The owner of the small stall probably recognized Goatee, so he asked for one thousand yuan. Goatee didn't even blink, and ordered someone to give the small stall owner three thousand yuan. The owner of the small stall was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. Closed.
In fact, how did he know that the coil of dragon silk was worth more than a mere three thousand yuan, and adding another ten thousand yuan after that was not an exaggeration at all.
I can understand the Emerald Dragon Cauldron. It was probably stolen by some group of tomb robbers by chance. It was put up for auction and then Goatee bought it, but it also cost a lot of money.
But that coil of dragon silk? It was so weird. I picked up a treasure from a small street stall. Is this goatee just lucky?
Then the question arises, which is why Goatee sent pictures of these two things to Master Liu Ba and asked him to come all the way to his house to see them. Is it just a pure show off?
I asked about the doubts in my heart, and Liu Baye said that the reason why Goatbeard did this was indeed just as I thought, to show off his tricks to outsiders.
But there is another point, that is, this old guy wants to get a share of the pie with Liu Baye, and his intention is to separate himself from one side when he rules the nine states.
When you have money, you want power, but he wants a bit too much power.
I heard Liu Baye said that there was also a dragon vein map in Goat Beard's hand, which is why he was able to identify the Cuilong Cauldron and Coiled Dragon Silk as the carriers of the dragon soul.
But the map was not made of human skin. It seemed to be some kind of scaly animal skin. It looked much older, and the location of Kowloon was vaguely marked on it.
But this time, Goatee ignored the previous suspicion and invited Liu Baye here, in fact, it was to ask Liu Baye to help him get another dragon soul object, and this dragon soul object was on Changbai Mountain, the ancestor of Wanshan Mountain. The dragon soul is the soul of the snow dragon, but its carrier is unknown.
The Soul of the Snow Dragon? This is indeed good news. Another divine object is about to come to the world.
In addition to the excitement, doubts came one after another, "Godfather, with our methods, we must have found the soul of the snow dragon first in the end. The old guy won't give it to us so generously, right?"
"snort."
Liu Baye snorted coldly, "Of course not, not only the unobtained Snow Dragon Soul, he also wants the Canglong Pearl and the Qiu Soul River Stone, and this time he promised a reward of 50 million. .”
Goatee's ambition is obvious. It seems that he wants to take all the dragon souls as his own. He said before that he would be evenly matched with Liu Baye, but now that he thinks about it, it is just empty talk. There is no need to think too much about what fate Liu Baye and I will end up with in the end.
Only Mr. Liu and I, as well as Duan Liuzhi, knew about the Canglong Pearl and the Qiuhun River Stone. No one else knew about it, otherwise the goatee would not have asked Mr. Liu for these two things.
I asked Mr. Liu when he would leave. Mr. Liu said that it would be after the wedding tomorrow. I don’t know how many people were going, but we only had Mr. Liu and me on our side.
For a big event like looking for the dragon soul, of course the more people the better, so I suggested to Mr. Liu Ba whether we should let Erbao come too.
As a result, Liu Baye shook his head and said that this trip might be a one-way trip. He didn't want to cause any further damage. Originally, he planned to go alone. I was forced to get involved in it.
Indeed, let’s not talk about whether the mysterious Changbai Mountain is dangerous or not. The insidious and cunning goatee alone is enough to swallow up the snow dragon soul and the other two dragon souls that he mistakenly thought were still in Liu Baye’s body. The thing will definitely kill Liu Baye and me at the last moment.
"Okay, it's getting late. Go to bed early. The soldiers will come to cover up the water and the earth. Let everything take its course."
"Um."
I nodded and lay back on the bed. I closed my eyes and thought about it for a while before falling asleep.
………………
Early the next morning, before dawn, I heard the noise outside, and Mr. Liu was also woken up.
Naturally, I am young and have never been married, so I don’t understand these so-called processes. Liu Baye told me that because of the big differences between the north and the south, the south generally chooses to hold weddings in the afternoon towards dusk, but the north chooses to hold weddings in the early morning, which means a Good start.
Seeing that it was still very dim outside the window, I planned to sleep a little longer, but just as I was about to fall asleep, Liu Baye beside me suddenly sat up from the bed, frowned and said in confusion: "No, the sound seems wrong, it seems Something happened!"
After being reminded like this by Mr. Liu, I immediately lost all sleep. I pricked up my ears and listened. As expected by Mr. Liu, I heard bursts of calls for help.
Hearing the sound, Mr. Liu and I rushed out of the room and found that the entire first floor was in a panic. A waiter happened to run past me, so I hurriedly stopped him and said, "What on earth happened?" ?”
"Something happened to Miss Tan!"
"What? You said something happened to Miss Tan. What happened?"
"What's going on? Don't you go and see it yourself?"
I asked casually, and then I realized that not only the waiter I called, but almost everyone I looked at was looking at me with a malicious look.
It felt like something had happened to Miss Tang, as if I had done something to her.
………………
Tan Shiya's boudoir was on the third floor of the manor villa. It was already crowded with people. However, when I appeared, the crowded crowd instinctively split into two, leaving me alone among them, and there were several waves of resentment. The sharp eyes pierced me like sharp knives.
I suddenly had a bad premonition, and I hurriedly walked towards Tan Shiya's room. Just as I walked to the door, I smelled a strong smell of blood.
Standing at the door of the room, I saw a girl lying quietly on the white bed in the room, that was Tan Shiya.
The white sheets were now stained blood red with blood, but Tan Shiya's face was extremely pale.
Several doctors and nurses were busy anxiously, seemingly trying hard to save her.
At this time, in the huge room, in addition to Tan Shiya, whose life and death were unknown, and the medical staff, there were also Goatee and his chief steward, and the Yang father and son stood beside them.
"How is Miss Tan?"
I rushed into the room and asked eagerly.
However, it attracted a pair of resentful and angry eyes, and the angry expressions seemed to want to tear me into pieces and scatter my bones into ashes.
"Damn it, you came just in time, I'll fucking kill you!"
Yang Xiaowei roared, casually picked up a nearby chair and threw it at me. I hurriedly dodged and snatched the chair from his hand.
"Yang Xiaowei, what do you mean, why do you do this?" I asked with confusion.
"Son of a bitch, if you hadn't fallen in love with Shiya yesterday, wouldn't she have thought about committing suicide? Now she's thinking about breaking up the relationship, right? You're fucking dreaming!"
At the same time, the stern-faced goatee looked at me with a cold gaze, and said with a trembling mouth: "Boy, if there is anything wrong with my precious granddaughter, I want you to bury her with her!"
I was frozen on the spot. I didn't expect that Tan Shiya would choose to commit suicide because of what I said yesterday. In the final analysis, I was to blame, which made me full of guilt.
"You brat, I've long disliked you. I'll beat you to death!"
The chief manager may have finally found an opportunity to vent his dissatisfaction, and he also picked up a chair and threw it at me.
This time I did not dodge, and let the chair hit my body. Even if it was hit, the pain would only be in the flesh or bones, but it was nothing compared to the heartache I felt now.
"stop!"
Liu Baye appeared next to me, raised his hand and caught the chair thrown by the chief executive. The frightened chief executive hurriedly let go of the chair and stepped back.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden burst of wind in my ears. It was Yang Xiaowei who picked up a huge vase on the side and threw it at me again.
Bang...!
Crash lala...!
The vase hit my head firmly, and then completely shattered and scattered. I felt a burst of coldness on my forehead, and then a wisp of bright red slid down the top of my head, blocking my sight.
