"Huh." The little girl snorted softly.
"If you help me find my sister, I will thank you. If you cheat the fish, you will be the second and third villain from now on. I will never forgive you." She threatened loudly, but her restless eyes revealed She felt guilty.
"Bad guy No. 2 and bad guy No. 3?" Lin Bei asked curiously: "Who is the bad guy No. 1?"
"The number one villain is a practitioner who often comes to disrupt our lives in our original homeland." Liu Xiaoyu mentioned it, still in an angry tone, "He..."
She glanced at Chu Liang and said: "He looks a bit like you, but he is uglier than you. He is thin and tall, fat and twisted... He is like a big monster, very scary."
"When I was increasing my mana, I thought, if I meet him again in the future, I will definitely beat him!"
"Okay." Chu Liang smiled, "If you meet that big bad guy again in the future, we will help you beat him up. Don't worry, we Shushan disciples will definitely not be bad people."
That night, they asked someone from Lijiazhuang to arrange an upstairs room for the little girl so that she could rest temporarily.
Chu Liang had been paying attention to the movements over there, wondering whether the little girl might be lying or running away overnight. As a result, she slept peacefully until dawn. It seemed that this fish was quite heartless.
The next day, they went to find Manager Cui.
"Oh!" Manager Cui woke up and was overjoyed when he heard that they had not only caught monsters, but also two. "When the two young heroes came out, they really showed off the Nine Heavens of Shu Mountain! This is nothing short of amazing." In one night, all the problems in my Lijiazhuang were solved, that’s really awesome!”
"Quite lucky." Chu Liang smiled, and then told the details of last night.
Mentioning the cultivator who was pretending to be a god, Manager Cui was naturally extremely angry, "That Jing Yuexuan is really despicable. He can't compete with us, and he engages in all these crooked ways."
When Liu Xiaoyu's sister was mentioned, he was also a little confused, "A fish spirit? We must have never seen it here. This is the only time we have had trouble with a fish spirit in so many years."
"It's not necessarily a demon. Her sister may not have revealed her true form and just came here as an ordinary woman." Chu Liang reminded.
"Okay, let me help you find out." Manager Cui was also easy to talk to.
Lin Bei asked: "Now that the monster issue has been resolved, is it okay for us to host the Nanyinfang performance?"
"Hehe, it's almost the same." Manager Cui said with a smile.
"Then let's stay a few more days and wait until we finish the show before leaving." Lin Bei said with a smile.
"Of course I want it." Manager Cui said quickly.
Chu Liang glanced at this guy's face and shook his head. He finally understood that from the beginning, this guy was traveling at his own expense in the name of a business trip.
What demon removal?
That's just by the way.
…
Jing Yuexuan.
The painting boat business on the Qinnan River is nothing more than eating, drinking and having fun. It is a business similar to a brothel. It is also a major gathering place for the literati in Nanguan City.
On this day, the largest boat in Jingyuexuan was completely booked. A feast was being held in an exquisitely decorated private room.
Although there were many people at the banquet, there were actually only two guests of honor.
Sitting on the master's seat was a young man who looked very young. He was wearing a brocade robe and a jade belt, with red lips and white teeth, and elegant eyebrows. He was quite handsome.
Opposite him was a rough man who looked tall and powerful. Although his robes were luxurious, they could not hide his decisive and decisive martial arts temperament, not to mention the deep scar on his rough face. Scar.
Except for these two people, the others were just followers to accompany the guests.
"I've heard about the name of the East Whale Gang for a long time, and today I met Brother Xue. He is indeed full of heroic demeanor, which is admirable." The young man smiled slightly, picked up the jade wine glass in his hand, and gave a gentle bow.
The man laughed, drank the wine in the glass without hesitation, and then laughed and said: "I am a rough man, I don't know how to say those beautiful words. If there is any disrespect for etiquette, please don't blame me. .”
"Hey, Brother Xue is a guest, how can a guest do anything wrong?" The young man known as the Little Marquis smiled again, his voice gentle and elegant.
"There has been a lot of trouble in our Whale Gang in recent days. People from the general gang leader are keeping a close eye on us. Our gang leader Jiang from the East Whale Gang ordered us to curb all our shady properties. So Hall Master Cheng did not dare to come over, so he could only Send me here to talk things over." The man surnamed Xue explained, "There is absolutely no disrespect to Dingshan Marquis."
"We have heard about the situation of the Whale Gang, and it is understandable." The young Marquis nodded.
The recent changes in the Whale Gang have been featured in Jiuzhou Fengyun Policy, and naturally no one knows about it. There are four King Kongs under Jiang Shenting of the East Whale Gang, all of whom are his right-hand men. They are well-known figures in the Eastern Region of the Yu Dynasty. One of the King Kongs is named Cheng Gan.
The man in front of him is named Xue Hu, and he is Cheng Gan's right-hand man.
"But..." Little Marquis changed the topic again, "I asked you to transport goods to Jiangnan. It's either windy or rainy. How many days has it been..."
"Do you need to give us an explanation? You can't just ask Hall Master Cheng to come out because he's too embarrassed to come out."
"What Hall Master Cheng means is that after this trip, our business will be put aside for a while." Xue Hu said with a smile, "Now is a critical period, and we can't give the chief gang leader any leverage. In that case, neither the Chief Gang Leader nor Gang Leader Jiang will be able to spare us."
He made it very clear.
Now Xu Bashan, the head of the Whale Gang, is fighting openly and secretly with Jiang Shenting of the East Whale Gang. As a subordinate of Jiang Shenting, Cheng Gan, if he does something wrong and is caught, may be used by his opponents to make a fuss, which is quite serious.
But the young Marquis showed a look of confusion.
"Brother Xue, you are in a critical moment now, and you need support." He said leisurely, "It's not a good idea to cut off our business at this time, right?"
"It's not broken, it's just put on hold for the time being. When this matter is over and Gang Leader Jiang takes over, Hall Master Cheng will naturally contact the Marquis again." Xue Hu replied.
"If Gang Leader Jiang takes over, then Hall Master Cheng will naturally be in a better position. I'm afraid he won't look down on our businesses by then, right?" Little Marquis asked with a smile.
"How could that be possible..." Xue Hu immediately waved his hand.
"It's not that Hall Master Cheng doesn't know that our business has grown bigger and bigger in recent years. More than a dozen royal nobles have participated in the southern region of the Yu Dynasty. Our Dingshan Marquis Mansion is just a representative." said the young Marquis. : "If your East Whale Gang's line is suddenly missing, then we will definitely not be able to find another company like yours for cooperation. Will this make it difficult for us?"
"Haha, please forgive me, young marquis." There is still a possibility of restarting for a while. If we keep going against the wind, no matter who gets caught, we will not get any good results. You should also consider our difficulties. If you put pressure on me, it will be difficult for me to handle it."
"Is it difficult?" The young Marquis sneered, "Then don't do it."
He stood up suddenly and said: "Brother Xue, you'd better write a reply to Hall Master Cheng and explain our intentions carefully. Business is not something you can do if you want to do it, or don't do it if you don't want to do it. It's not that easy to withdraw suddenly. of."
After that, he turned around and left the table.
Xue Hu was left sitting in his original position with a gloomy look on his face.
…
The young marquis took the people and horses off the boat, and then took a carriage all the way into the city, arriving in front of a mansion in Nanguan City.
Dingshanhou Mansion.
The mansion is majestic and the street in front of it is clean and dust-free.
He walked into the deep courtyard and asked first, "Is my father back?"
"The Marquis hasn't come back yet." Someone immediately replied.
The young Marquis nodded and said nothing. He went straight to the backyard garden, turned around the corridor, came to the outside of a room, and knocked lightly.
"Xia An? Is that you?" A happy female voice sounded inside.
"It's me." The young Marquis replied.
With a creak, the door opened immediately, revealing a surprised face. The girl inside the door had snow-white skin.
"Why have you been gone for so long..." The woman's tone was a bit coquettish as she welcomed the young Marquis in. "I don't know anyone here. I want to find my sister..."
"The Hou Mansion is busy with affairs, dear. Nanguan City is so big. If you go searching alone, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. I have sent people to help you find information about your sister throughout the city. You will find her whereabouts soon." Xiao Hou I comforted him softly.
"Okay..." The woman nodded slightly and asked worriedly: "You go out for so long every day, will you meet many other girls? You won't fall in love with others, right?"
"How could it be? Little fool." The young Marquis held her hand and said softly: "You are the most special girl I have ever seen. I will only love you for the rest of my life."
