"What are you going to do in Xiangxi?"
I'm a little surprised that Sister Ling's business is so extensive.
Business has spread from southern Xinjiang to western Hunan.
Sister Ling stretched out her slender palm, clasped it on the table, and tapped it lightly, "When you get to the specific tasks, someone will take care of you. The remuneration remains the same. This compass plus the corpse palm, there are still three hundred thousand!"
To be honest, I am really excited about the conditions this time.
After all, there is a high probability that someone will work with me there, which is much safer than going to the underground palace under the Diamond Tower alone.
But then I thought about it, there are rumors that there are zombies in western Hunan, and the relationship between Taoists everywhere is complicated. It might be easier to get in, but harder to get out!
I was silent for a long time, looked up at her and replied seriously, "I'll think about it."
"Okay, when the time comes to make a decision, just tell me and I will arrange for someone to pick you up." Sister Ling seemed very happy with this answer, and the smile on her face almost overflowed, with her charming face The face makes people feel very comfortable.
I nodded, "Okay, I'll let you know whether I go or not!"
After finishing his words, he left Lingmiao Pavilion under Sister Ling's gaze.
On the way back, I kept thinking about what happened this time. The risk of going to Xiangxi is indeed quite high, but... the reward is indeed very high!
Not to mention the compass weapon and corpse palm, the three hundred thousand cash alone was enough to make many people's hearts flutter.
But people in our profession must stay rational at all times and consider any job carefully before taking it on.
Most of those people who are not clear-headed and do anything for money will die within three years.
Especially in that chaotic era, all kinds of bloody things often happened. Many Yin Yang gentlemen, Feng Shui masters, and even tomb robbers who helped people do dirty things died in the wilderness without anyone knowing.
Sister Ling is a pure cultural relic dealer. The work in her hands is definitely not clean, and she is more or less stepping on the red line.
So you have to think carefully about going to Xiangxi.
I secretly made a decision in my mind and went back to discuss it with Sister Bai. If she could secretly protect me when I went there, then I could go.
Otherwise, I am a little worried that after the accident, will Sister Ling leave me behind in order to protect herself?
...
Just as he arrived at the door of his house, a black unlicensed Santana suddenly braked and stopped at the gate. The window rolled down, and it was Lu Peng sitting in the driver's seat!
Lu Peng is that lawyer who is a bit polite and scumbag. He was the one who got me out of the police station last time.
I raised my hand in surprise and said hello, "Long time no see. Why do you think of me here? Would you like to come in and have a cup of tea?"
"No more drinking, you get in the car first!" Lu Peng said anxiously, "Brother Long is in trouble, he asked me to come to you for help, hurry up and leave!"
I was stunned for a moment, unable to react for a moment, "You...what did you say?"
"Oh, my ancestor, let's go quickly. Something happened to Brother Long. If you go late, you may not be able to save your life!" Lu Peng's face was so anxious that he twisted his face. He quickly got out of the car, pushed me and walked towards me. Go to the car.
With the "rumble!" sound of the car, Lu Peng took me away from here.
On the way, I asked him uneasily, "What happened to Brother Long?"
"I can't explain in a sentence or two. Let's talk about it when we get there first." Lu Peng stared at the road with his eyes firmly pressed on the accelerator.
My eyelids were twitching, I was afraid that he would get into a car accident on the road and kill me in the middle of the road. "You...slow down. You have to tell me what is going on first. I need to make preparations in advance. At least I can't be empty-handed." go!"
Lu Peng's face froze, and he turned to look at me, "No, in this line of work, do you have to use things to do things? Aren't you able to deal with those messy things with bare hands?"
"Damn!" I twitched the corner of my mouth and patiently explained to him, "Who do you think I am? Those who work in that profession should at least prepare tools in advance, just like you, a lawyer, do you need to prepare the tools before the trial? Prepare evidence or something in advance?"
Lu Peng paused, and his tone gradually became timid, "I...I saw some experts in TV series, not all of them can deal with monsters with bare hands..."
"If you ask me to deal with a furry kid, not only can I do it without tools, but I can also give him two hands, do you believe it?" I said speechlessly.
Lu Peng's face froze when I said that, and he said in a low voice, "Brother Long had a fierce fight with the Luo family some time ago, and then yesterday the Luo family and Brother Long made an appointment to negotiate, hoping to reconcile."
I nodded and continued listening.
No matter what the industry was in those years, it was filled with a strong flavor of the world.
No matter what happened, they would first arrange a fight, and then when they saw that they were about to suffer a loss, or they could no longer bear the consequences, they would make an appointment for peace talks.
Lu Peng had a look of resentment on his face and spat onto the windshield.
"Brother Long thought about it at the time and felt that the recent losses in the company were a bit too great, so he agreed to negotiate for a settlement."
"But who would have thought that those gangsters from the Luo family actually did something dirty and found two people like you, and almost killed Brother Long. If the brothers hadn't been protecting him with all their strength, he would have been in trouble. Got it!"
My heart skipped a beat when I heard this, and I quickly asked, "What's going on with Brother Long? Why did you just tell me now!"
"Brother Long hasn't woken up yet. He seems to have been poisoned. His legs are as black as charcoal. The doctor said he may need to amputate." Lu Peng's tone was a little weak, and he glanced at me secretly, as if he was afraid that I would be angry. , "Brother Long even mentioned it before he went there yesterday. He was also worried about the Luo family's conspiracy, and he was considering whether to tell you about it."
"But he didn't know who he heard, saying that people in the world don't care about gangsters, so he didn't tell you!"
"Brother Long was injured in the suburbs yesterday. People from the Luo family unloaded the wheels of our car behind our backs. A group of us carried Brother Long on our backs one by one before escaping back. This morning, after I sent Brother Long to the hospital to stabilize him, I’ll come to you non-stop.”
Hearing what he said, I felt extremely anxious!
Who would negotiate a date in the suburbs these days?
It's okay to go to a place like this, but I don't want to take extra precautions.
It's okay now. I was tricked by the opponent. If it weren't for good luck, I would have died dozens of times.
I thought about it and continued to ask, "You said someone secretly told Brother Long not to tell me about this. Who said that?"
The more I think about it, the more something is wrong. I always feel that there must be a mole under Brother Long.
Lu Peng thought for a while and said quickly, "It's a young man who just came here. His name seems to be... Chen Ming. He is Chen Xu's distant nephew!"
After listening to this, I thought to myself that this was a bit troublesome.
Chen Xu is the most loyal little brother under Brother Long. If something goes wrong with him, I can’t imagine what Brother Long has been infiltrated into by the Luo family...
