Not long after, Anyi and Su Qiuzi also knocked on the door, informing Yu Qing that all the troops here had been withdrawn, and asked if there were any arrangements for today.
Yu Qing said that he had worked hard all night last night and had no plans for today, so he had to rest together.
The reason why they were resting was to let outsiders see them resting, so that the absence of Mu Aotie and Baili Xin would not be too conspicuous. They had to wait for the two of them to come back. As long as nothing unexpected happened, they would probably be able to return tomorrow.
Datou left with Mu Aotie and the others to prevent any accidents on the way, and no one knew about it.
At half noon, all Zhihai Pavilion's maritime search personnel withdrew. They searched the entire Duozi Reef but could not find the target.
So as soon as they docked, Zhou Sheling was taken to a secret cell, and Xiang Haihua personally sat in for interrogation. Not to mention the value of the Guangling Pill, the matter involving the assassination of Princess Chaoyang was not a trivial matter, and there must be someone to deal with it. An explanation.
The interrogation process was not troublesome. Zhou Sheling answered whatever he asked and quickly poured out all the details.
It was really surprising to learn that in order to make money, this guy dared to use the convenience of his internal identity to forge sect summons to defraud hundreds of Guangling Pills, and then returned the pills to his fellow sects. It was really surprising to find that this guy was indeed audacious.
After figuring out the situation, Xiang Haihua stood up and said to the side, "Let the shopkeeper of Wuding Mountain come over secretly."
The subordinates immediately obeyed, and soon the inexplicable shopkeeper Tao was invited.
We didn't bother to talk too much here. We first asked Shopkeeper Tao to meet Zhou Sheling and let Zhou Sheling tell the whole story. Then we told Shopkeeper Tao that the young boss was the one who framed the murder. Among them is the current Princess Chaoyang.
Shopkeeper Tao, who was already extremely shocked, almost died of fright. He slapped Zhou Sheling several times in person, and then begged Xiang Haihua, hoping that the matter could be kept private.
The sun was shining high, and Nanzhu, who had visited the Amber Sea, appeared on the pier again, and stood at the pier stall of Bihai Boating.
The last time I came here, I vaguely remembered that this place was recruiting workers. After being short of money, I turned back here, hoping to find a job here that would at least alleviate the current predicament.
It’s one thing that Amber Hai’s consumption is high because he is short of money. The key is that he didn’t have much money in his pocket to begin with. He squeezed out the little money he had in Taohuaju and spent most of it on medical treatment in Jilu Mountain. Busang Sang's body is to please others.
Now it's time to stump the heroic man again with a penny.
Fortunately, there is nothing picky about recruiting workers here. They are paid on a piece-by-piece basis. Cattle and horses are not allowed on the island. Pulling goods and other tasks rely on manpower. Loading and unloading of goods on the ship and transporting them on the island all rely on manpower. Nanzhu With my Xuan-level cultivation, I successfully applied for the job, and then worked as a coolie on the island. At least I didn't have to sleep on the streets, and I had a warehouse as a resting place.
That night, after activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis, Zhou Sheling appeared again in the casino of Zhihai Pavilion to have fun.
Under the manipulation of a thoughtful person, Huo Lang from Jingyuan Shipyard soon learned about it, and then went to the casino to witness it with his own eyes. When he saw that Zhou Sheling was indeed here and had not returned to any sect, Huo Lang's expression was a little distorted. He immediately motioned to Hongji to strike up a conversation.
Not long after, Hong Ji led Zhou Sheling out of the casino and took him to a remote place to meet Huo Lang.
Huo Lang, who wanted to find out more, said cheerfully: "Brother Zhou, how are you feeling today?"
When Zhou Sheling saw this guy, his teeth itched with hatred, and he snorted: "No matter how lucky you are, I can't withstand your torture. My surname is Huo. I have been tricked by you. I was about to settle the score with you, but I didn't expect it." Instead, you came to the door first."
Huo Lang was surprised and said: "There is no injustice or enmity, why would Brother Zhou say this?"
Zhou Sheling was so angry that she almost poked his nostril with her finger, "How dare you pretend to be with me? Who is the son of a wealthy businessman from the Yu family of Jin Kingdom?"
Huo Lang blinked, "A rich businessman is not a rich businessman, what else can he be?"
"Okay, I have suffered heavy losses from you. If you want to pretend that it has nothing to do with you, fine, you can continue to pretend slowly. I will go to the Tanhua Lang to plead guilty. I will tell him that it was you who wanted to lure him out and kill him. Yes, I was deceived by you." Zhou Sheling tossed her sleeves and turned away.
As soon as these words came out, Huo Lang's face instantly darkened. Hong Ji reacted very quickly and quickly stopped Zhou Sheling and clung to him like a baby, "Young Master Zhou, there is no grievance or enmity, don't do it." It seems like there is some deep hatred, please explain it slowly and clearly if you have anything to say, there must be some misunderstanding about this matter."
Huo Lang tried his best to calm down his expression and sighed: "Brother Zhou, isn't the matter in the past? I've already said let it go. Why are you getting angry because of this? What's going on?"
"You gave up when you said you would? You described people as fat meat that can easily get into your mouth. How can I give up..." Zhou Sheling told the story of getting a hundred Guangling Pills from the shop.
His expression changed drastically when he heard that this guy did not leave the Amber Sea, but that he actually got a large amount of Guangling Pills to trade due to the news last night.
Last night, he noticed that there was something unusual going on at Tan Hwa Lang's place, and he actually went out to sea at night. He was vaguely suspicious and worried, but he didn't expect it to be true.
"Fortunately, fortunately, among the group of brothers I found, some of them have seen the Tanhua Lang and recognized it at a glance. If it was just the Tanhua Lang, it would be fine. One of the women was actually the Princess Chaoyang born by the Empress of Yin State. , I almost scared me to death, I was so scared that I had to stop in time."
Huo Lang was also shocked when he heard that Princess Chaoyang was involved. When he learned that he finally gave up and did not take action, he breathed a sigh of relief, patted the other party on the shoulder and said: "It's okay, it's okay."
I thought to myself that this person really couldn't be kept and must be eliminated as soon as possible.
"It's okay." Zhou Sheling threw his arm away, "I wanted to stop, but my hundred Guangling Pills buried in the trading area disappeared out of thin air. Who took them away? The person named Huo , do you dare to say it has nothing to do with you?"
Huo Lang was stunned, "Guangling Pill is missing? No, what does your missing Guangling Pill have to do with me?"
Zhou Sheling: "Who else could it be if it weren't you? If it weren't for you, would you have had to lie to me with so many twists and turns? My brothers are right. This is a trap you set early in the morning, just to cheat on me. Dan’s here.”
He had been holding back his grievances for a long time and finally found someone to vent to. He was so cruel that he dared to cheat me and see if I wronged you.
Huo Lang: "Are you crazy? If it was me who did it, would I still be able to come to see you now?"
"Don't do this. This happened because you lied to me. If you can't find the hundred Guangling Pills, I won't be able to explain it to the sect. If I don't have a good time, you won't have a good time either. My surname is Huo Yes, let me tell you, I will give you one day, you can either return a hundred Guangling Pills to me, or compensate me with three billion, otherwise I will tell that Tanhua Lang the cause of the matter, anyway, he and the Prime Minister We have a good relationship with Haihua, but the matter involves Princess Chaoyang, so if we die together, we will all die together!"
This bunch of unreliable nonsense completely angered Huo Lang, and he discovered that there was something wrong with his grandson's brain.
Under normal circumstances, he would have given up long ago, withdrew a long time ago, and has not participated in anything. It's none of my business if you go and make the deal yourself, and if you are dissatisfied, it's useless for you to file a complaint.
But the crux of the problem is that he, Jingyuan Shipping Company, has two professions, but secretly he is also a killer organization. He simply does not dare to let the murder he planned to happen get out of hand.
At this moment, there was a fierce light in his eyes, murderous intention was born, and he began to look around quietly.
Zhou Sheling had already been taught how to deal with it. He hummed and said, "You want to kill people and silence them? I tell you, it's too late. All my brothers know about it. Unless you silence us all, I say, you know." How many people are there in my group?"
He came closer to Huo Lang, who had a gloomy face, and poked Huo Lang's chest with the chip in his hand, "I'll say it again, please listen to me. I'll give you one day. If I still can't see you at this time tomorrow, One hundred Guangling Pills or three billion taels of silver, I keep my word!"
After saying that, he turned around and left, extremely arrogant.
"Young Master Zhou, Young Master Zhou, don't leave in a hurry. If you have something to say, please speak slowly." Hong Ji stepped forward to stop him again, and leaned against him again.
Snapped! The slap was loud.
Zhou Sheling slapped her away and said, "Get away!"
Hong Ji, who staggered and covered her face, was stunned. She didn't expect that this guy didn't care about her, but he actually dared to do something to her.
This slap was quite heavy, catching her off guard and causing blood to flow from the corner of her mouth.
But this could not relieve Zhou Sheling's hatred. He received more slaps for this incident, and even a few of his big teeth were knocked out.
This slap also made Huo Lang's face become more sinister, and he no longer had that lazy and carefree look.
Zhou Sheling turned to look at them, and tossed the chips in his hand that could be exchanged for hundreds of thousands of taels, "You'd better go to Gaoxiang and pray to heaven and earth, so that my luck tonight can kill everyone. If I can get a hundred If I win back the loss of Guangling Dan, I might be able to let you go."
With a cold snort, he strode away.
Huo Lang, who watched with cold eyes, only realized what a gambler is today. How stupid must he be to imagine that he can win back billions with hundreds of thousands of chips?
He really regretted messing with this kind of gambler. After Hong Ji, who was covering his face, came to the side, he took a deep breath and said: "It was too late to start. When I decided to let go, I should have killed him directly, otherwise Where did this trouble come from?"
Hong Ji sighed: "Who would have thought that a guy like this could actually get a hundred Guangling Pills from Wuding Mountain, which has clear rules? What if he insists on blaming us unreasonably? What should I do? Doesn't he have money?
The problem is that once the news of this matter leaks out, you know the rules of the organization. There is no need for Tanhualang and Xianghaihua to come to us, the higher ups will have to make us disappear. There are only two options at the moment, either kidnap him, dig out his accomplices and silence him together, or really give him three billion. "
Huo Lang: "Where can I get three billion? Even if you sell me, you won't get three billion."
Hongji: "If we mortgage all the properties here, we might be able to make a little bit of it."
"Don't you understand this kind of gambler? If you taste the sweetness of blackmailing us once, you dare to blackmail us a second time. There will be no end."
"This is a bad idea. If you can't dig out his accomplices and kill him together, you have to use money to stabilize him. There should be people on their side watching us. We raise money in a high-profile way. His accomplices know what he has in his hands. With such a large sum of money, can you just sit back and watch him take it back and pay off the debt easily? Can you not bear to part with it?"
Huo Lang's eyes lit up and he understood what she meant. He fished the person out and then silenced him in one fell swoop, so he could get his money back.
After slightly nodding, he warned: "Send someone here at the casino to keep an eye on him, just in case this guy comes. Good luck, really..."
Before she finished speaking, the meaning left Hong Ji speechless. This person actually hoped that the gambler could win billions at the gambling table.
Of course, no matter what, people must keep an eye on it now.
