"Master, do you think Li Zexuan has agreed to eldest brother's request now?"
Duke Wei's Mansion, study room.
Hong Fu Girl held her hair with one hand and said "playfully" while dangling in front of Li Jing.
Li Jing put his hand on his forehead, sighed helplessly, and said: "Chuchen, I tell you that you shouldn't do this. Xiaoxuan is also our junior, how can you plot against him?"
When Hong Fu Nu heard this, she stared and said loudly: "Plan? Where did I plot against him? I just told him the truth! Didn't my eldest brother save the man named Meng Youliang at sea? I can't believe it from the beginning to the end. Did you make up any lies? So how can this be called a conspiracy?"
Li Jing was speechless for a moment, thinking that he could never reason with a woman at any time!
"That's all! Even if I owe that child a favor!"
Li Jing sighed in his heart and thought to himself.
............................
"Master Marquis, benefactor, you are busy first. If there is a chance another day, Meng Youliang will come to visit again!"
Yunshan Villa.
Meng Youliang only sat for a while, then stood up and said goodbye.
He also knew in his heart that Li Zexuan and the bearded guest must have something important to discuss, and it was inappropriate for him to keep disturbing them. It was said that if the Qiu-bearded guest hadn't been erratic, coming and going without a trace, he wouldn't have rushed over as soon as he heard the news about the Qiu-bearded guest.
"Okay, Uncle Meng, walk slowly!"
Li Zexuan stood up and smiled.
Although he had many questions as to why Meng Youliang knew that the Qiu-bearded guest was here, the fact that the Qiu-bearded guest saved Meng Wenhao's father was an ironclad fact that could not be changed no matter what. Everything else seemed to be unimportant.
After sending Meng Youliang away, there were only two people left in the main hall, an old man and a young man. The two stared at each other for a long time before Li Zexuan said:
"I can give you the sea chart, but you have to agree to one condition!"
The bearded guest suddenly looked happy. He had no chance to talk about it before. Now, although there are conditions, he can finally talk about it. The gap between the two is not that big. In the final analysis, it is because he accidentally saved Li Zexuan's proud disciple. Li Zexuan did not say clearly that his father was Li Zexuan, but he obviously accepted this affection, otherwise his attitude would not have changed like this.
"What conditions?"
The bearded guest asked hurriedly.
Li Zexuan stood up, put his hands behind his back, and said calmly: "Senior, you should have lost the previous competition, right?"
The bearded man thought about it seriously, then nodded and said, "Yes, I lost!"
Although Li Zexuan and Mo Huai teamed up to fight against him in the end of the fight, he had already lost at that time because he had received a death threat from Li Zexuan and forcibly opened his acupuncture points.
If you lose, you lose. He has a long beard and travels all over the world, but he still can't do the shameless behavior of refusing to admit defeat even though he clearly lost.
"Okay! Before the competition, senior, you once said that if I lose, you will destroy my whole family! But in the end, it was clearly you who lost, so that's another statement!"
Li Zexuan said with a smile.
The old man with the beard darkened his face and said impatiently: "Marquis Yong'an, you should just tell me what you want! If a certain family can do it, they will try their best to do it!"
When Li Zexuan heard this, he showed a devilish smile, which made a big devil like Qiu Bearker, who had killed countless people, shudder. Then he heard him say:
"I have always been kind-hearted, and I can't do things like destroying a whole family. But since you lost the competition, senior, you should pay a corresponding price. And you also want my sea map, so the price you should pay is natural. No less! Let’s do this, as long as you are willing to serve as a guard at Yanhuang Academy for a year, I will hand over the sea chart to you! In addition to this requirement, after you go to sea with my sea chart, you will also You need to help me find a few things overseas, and if I find them, I will send them back to Chang'an. How about it? Do you agree to these two requests?"
"Being a guard for a year?"
The bearded man's eyes widened. If someone else told him this, he would have to punch that person into a meat pie! Who is his bearded guest? That is the overlord of the sea! How can you serve as a guard for someone? How could he hang out on that beach in the south if this was going to spread?
But it’s okay not to agree! First of all, he did lose the competition that day. Logically speaking, Li Zexuan should have made the request, and that chart was really important to him! After so many years of wandering on the sea, no one knows better than him how rich the wealth is on the sea. If Li Zexuan's sea chart can help him, where can he go in such a big world?
"This...can I change a condition? For example, a certain family can buy this chart with money!"
The bearded man said somewhat unwillingly.
Regarding the latter condition, he thought it was nothing. It was just a matter of putting some effort into finding something. However, the former condition was life-threatening. As the owner of the Seventy-Two Islands, he also wanted to save face!
Li Zexuan squinted his eyes and said calmly: "There is no need to change these two conditions! Senior, you also know that I didn't want to negotiate terms with you originally, but you are not willing to negotiate the terms now. There is nothing Hou can do!”
Two days ago, in addition to threatening Li Zexuan's family, the bearded guest also committed another crime, which was to disrupt the order of Yunshan. Accordingly, he must pay a price for this and set an example for those who will come after him. People know that no matter who dares to come to Yunshan to cause trouble, they must accept punishment!
The atmosphere in the main hall suddenly froze. The bearded guest looked gloomy and tapped the table with his fingers without saying a word.
When Li Zexuan saw this, he did not rush him. He waved to Lan'er who was hiding at the top of the stairs. The little girl put the wooden sword in her hand and ran towards Li Zexuan with a smile. The two brothers and sisters were playing in front of the bearded guest. We played the childish game of rock, paper, scissors, which was very fun!
After a long time, the bearded man coughed twice and said: "Marquis Yong'an, a certain family now has thousands of brothers. It's not just Zhang who wants to do whatever he says. This matter is of great importance, and Give Zhang some time to think carefully, and I will give you an answer before sunset tomorrow!"
Although his own martial arts skills are basically unrivaled, he still needs to listen to the opinions of his subordinates! Otherwise, what future would he have as a "bare commander"?
"...Okay! I will wait for you for a day!"
Li Zexuan nodded.
He didn't expect that the bearded guest didn't refuse on the spot when faced with such an unreasonable request. It was really incredible!
"Then I'll take my leave now!"
The bearded guest bowed his hands and went out. Of course, there was no one to see him off in the entire other courtyard.
