"You two, we have played so many games before, don't I need to repeat the rules?" Just like the previous nine games, Wen Taiyuan still called the two players to the front before announcing the start of the game. Say hello to them quietly.
Na Fuyan didn't say anything, but Sha Zhenlun's reaction was different from all the previous players...
I saw him smile slightly and said: "Huh... So what if I don't care about being beaten to death?"
"Huh?" When Wen Taiyuan heard this, his expression changed slightly, but he did not shout out on the spot because of this. Xiao Yao just replied in a deep voice, "Brother Sha, I have heard your name before, and you said this... I do believe it, but well, even if you don't care about being beaten to death, it doesn't mean that you Your opponent can ignore the rules and follow the path of beating you to death." At this point, Wen Taiyuan glanced at Fu Yan.
Fu Yan also agreed and expressed his attitude: "Senior Wen, don't worry, I'm just hired to fight, not to kill. If you want to find a killer... there is a person in the background who is quite famous. "My son."
"Humph...Brother Fu is so tall and fierce, but he's actually quite timid." Seeing that the other party didn't take the bait, Sha Zhanlun tried to provoke him further.
"Heh..." Fu Yan just smiled, "Brother Sha, I know what you are doing, but it is useless for you to excite me. If you are really capable, you can beat me without fouling." Right? ”
Even though Fuyan looks like a angry-eyed King Kong, and his education level is not very high, this person really has some great wisdom when facing problems.
After all, he has been wandering the streets for decades, has experienced too many shitty things, and met too many strange people... What does a provocation like this mean?
Fuyan didn’t talk about anything with the other party at all, and went straight to the essence of the problem in one reply - don’t you like to “fight”? If you have the ability, you can beat me within the constraints of the rules.
This is how he easily defended himself against Sha Zhenlun's provocation, and even managed to get a counterattack general.
When Sha Zhenlun heard this, his face tilted and his mouth curled up: "Okay! You said it well, then you wait."
Lao Sha is not an upright person. , His reaction was not that he was irritated, but that he understood the opponent's tactics, praised him from the bottom of his heart, and expressed his confidence in victory.
"If you two have no objections, please go your separate ways." Wen Taiyuan looked around at the two oil-inefficient lamps, feeling really uneasy about the progress of this game.
Fuyan and Sha Haulun both bowed their hands towards each other, and then walked towards the center of the ring.
…………
At the same time, in Cangzhou City, in an inconspicuous house.
Ding Bu Zhu was sitting in front of a table of exquisite wine and food, pouring and drinking alone.
He didn’t touch a single chopstick of the food on the table because the guests he was waiting for hadn’t arrived yet.
Zhi——
Suddenly, the door was pushed open.
There was no announcement from the gang, no warning of footsteps, and the person who pushed the door did not knock on the door in advance.
She just came in and closed the door as if nothing had happened.
The next second, Ding couldn't help but look up at the ordinary-dressed girl in front of him, about fifteen or sixteen years old.
At that time, he was shocked.
Because the girl's face had not completely lost its childishness and was not painted at all, which made him think "so beautiful" in an instant.
Everyone, Ding Buzhu is the boss behind the number one brothel in Dashu. What kind of beauty have you not seen? Something that can even make him slightly surprised is not only unparalleled in the world, but also unique in a million.
"Girl? Are you..." However, Ding Buzhu did not relax his vigilance just because the other party was beautiful. On the contrary, he became more vigilant. While asking about the other party's identity, he even secretly made a fortune. With internal strength, he is always ready to flip the table and react to all possible dangers.
"Boss Ding, I haven't seen you in a few years, have you forgotten me?" The girl smiled, and before she finished speaking, she moved a stool beside the table and sat down opposite Ding Buzhu. .
"Huh?" Ding couldn't help being stunned when he heard the words, because the other party's voice really seemed familiar to him.
This voice is clear, moist, thin, and sweet... If you close your eyes and just listen to this voice, the image that comes to mind is generally the image of a beautiful woman with a graceful figure.
"Ling Louzhu?" Ding couldn't help but think for a few seconds and asked in a doubtful tone.
"Exactly." When Ling Sheng'er replied, she had already picked up the wine bottle on the table and was pouring wine for herself.
"You...this..." Although he guessed it right, Ding still couldn't accept it in a short period of time, so his next question was a bit difficult to ask.
It’s not his fault. A few years ago, Price Gang and Tingfenglou also negotiated a big deal. The Ling Sheng’er he met at that time was the same person he met when he and Shuang Xie were in Guangzhou. The image was consistent with her - she was a tall woman several times fatter than him, with a voice that did not match her appearance at all. Although it was difficult to judge her age, she was at least not less than thirty years old.
But if the person in front of me now, if his voice and tone of voice didn't sound almost the same as before, who would have believed it... Is this the same person?
"Boss Ding, do you want to ask..." Ling Sheng'er knew what word Ding couldn't help but get stuck in his throat, so she didn't wait for the other person to formulate a sentence, and she answered, " ...Is my true appearance the fat woman you saw a few years ago, or the beautiful woman you see now?"
"Huh..." Ding couldn't help but understand. , everyone is a smart person. Since Ling Sheng'er himself doesn't mind speaking clearly, he will no longer beat around the bush, "I hope Lord Ling can give me some advice."
"Well..." Ling Sheng'er He groaned and picked it up casually.He put the dish into his mouth first, then puffed out his cheeks and chewed it with a cute expression, saying, "None of them."
"Hahahaha..." Ding couldn't help laughing, "What a ghost face." "Feng' is indeed unpredictable, a hero among women..." As he said this, he picked up the wine bottle and refilled the wine glass in front of him, "Ding gives you a toast."
" Please."
"Please."
Both of them raised their glasses to each other, and then drank.
Two empty glasses were placed on the table at the same time. At this time, Ling Sheng'er said again: "Boss Ding, to be honest, my little sister invited you here today because she has a business to discuss."
"Master Ling, if we have any business, it doesn't matter." Ding couldn't help but said, "I have a price to help. As long as the price is right, we can negotiate anything."
Listen to what he said. It is "accepting", but in fact it is "pushing people away".
Because Ling Sheng'er calls herself "little sister", she is obviously trying to get close... Ding Buzu is very alert and does not fall for the trap at all. He still calls him "Ling Louzhu" and emphasizes that he represents There is price help, everything is based on "the price is right", and it is better to avoid trying to make friends.
Ling Sheng'er saw that the other party was so cautious. Not only was she not angry, but she also gained confidence in cooperation. She nodded and continued: "Okay, let me ask you a question first. Boss Ding thinks that young people Is the right to host the Heroes Association important? ”
“It depends on who is right... It may be important to some sects, but to you Tingfeng Tower, I’m afraid it’s not as important as yours. Is it true that the 'leading cup' you are fighting for is true?" Ding Buzhu answered in a flawless manner, "Huh... Of course, it's the same for our price gang."
What he said, Not to mention him and Ling Sheng'er, even outsiders would understand.
Special neutral gangs such as Tingfenglou and the Price Gang deal with both Jianghu and Green Forest, and also interact with the government and even some so-called evil and crooked ways; Hats, if you really let them wear them, you might crush them to death, so they definitely don't want to do things like "holding a Young Heroes Meeting", so it doesn't have any importance.
"So...is the Silkworm Ring, or the Heavenly Silkworm Art, important?" After a breath, Ling Sheng'er asked again.
Ding couldn't help but think about this question, and then said: "That is still very important. After all, a peerless martial arts can help people solve many problems that cannot be solved originally."
"But it will also bring about many problems that did not exist in the first place." Ling Sheng'er continued.
"Oh?" Ding couldn't help but wonder, "What does Mr. Ling mean?"
Ling Sheng'er did not answer him, but continued to ask: "Boss Ding thinks "Can the Sha Qulun you invited win this competition?" She paused, "Going further, even if he wins, do you think those 'well-known people' will really make you valuable to help like this?" A sect that is neither black nor white takes away the Silkworm Ring?"
Ding couldn't help but understand the hint in her words.Of course I understand.
Already understood.
For this reason, Ding couldn't help but choose not to answer the call.
"I think Boss Ding is not the kind of person who would come here in vain even if he knew the deal couldn't be done." Ling Sheng'er said, "I'm afraid Sha Xiulun's victory or defeat on the stage will not be the same. You didn't take it to heart from the beginning. You just wanted to make your presence in Cangzhou appear reasonable by hiring people to participate in the competition... There is no place where you can really get the Silkworm Seeking Ring. It's on this 'Struggle Cup', but somewhere else..."
At this moment, Ding couldn't help but his face was as heavy as water. He drank half of the cup, stalled for time, and thought about it. After understanding the situation, he said again: "Ding doesn't understand what the landlord Ling said."
"Does Boss Ding insist that I name the 'Tief Yuwang'?" But Ling Sheng'er was reluctant and her tone became more and more fierce.
As soon as he said this, Ding couldn't help but shake the hand holding the wine glass slightly.
But he still held his own and drank the remaining half of the glass.
"Tingfeng Tower is well-deserved." Ding couldn't help responding like this, basically admitting that his affairs were exposed.
"But..." The next second, Ding couldn't help but change the subject, "My Ding Can't help's predicament is not the predicament of Ling Louzhu. I have a price to help with the Silkworm Hunting Ring that I can't take away. , can Tingfeng Tower take him away?"
His mind was really fast, and he immediately thought of how to fight with the other party.
"Not bad." But Ling Sheng'er admitted it generously, "Little sister, I was only a 'superficial contest' and didn't expect to win... Me too, I have other things to come. Cangzhou will do it."
"But you are not me, you have never thought about the Tiancan Kung." Ding Buzhu said.
"I never thought about it." Ling Sheng'er said.
"You just want to do business." Ding couldn't help but say.
"Yes." Ling Sheng'er said.
"Your business is more than just doing it for a family at a price with me, right?" Ding couldn't help but ask.
"Boss Ding is very clever, and my little sister can't hide it from you." Ling Sheng'er said, "But I won't worry about my business with other companies."
"I don't have to worry about it." Ding couldn't help but say.
"Well..." Ling Sheng'er continued, "Then I can also ask everyone in Tingfeng Tower to forget the name 'Yu Wang', at least recently."
"Isn't this a deal that Landlord Ling came to discuss with Ding?" Ding couldn't help but ask again.
"Of course not." Ling Sheng'er said, "This is just the second drink you and I have before we officially talk about the deal, so I respect you, little sister."
After saying that, she picked up the wine glass.
"Please."
"Please."
They drank another drink.
"Now we have toasted each other..." Ding couldn't help but put down his glass and said, "Can I hear what the deal is that Master Ling is talking about?"
At this time, Ling ShengEr said sternly: "Not long ago, Tingfeng Tower got a piece of information. Because the matter involved a major matter, I then used all the power of Tingfeng Tower to conduct an in-depth investigation, and from this I deduced that something was about to happen. The context of the conspiracy, as well as its causes and consequences." She paused for half a second and looked at Ding Buzu, "Now, I want to sell this secret to Boss Ding."
Ding Buzu frowned. : "Why me?"
"Of course it's because this matter is related to you." Ling Sheng'er said.
"Then if I say now that I don't want to hear about this matter or do this deal, will it have nothing to do with me?" Ding's answer was also full of sophistication.
"I can't answer you this question." But Ling Sheng'er is also engaged in intelligence work. She naturally knows that as long as she answers the other party's "questions with certain restrictions", the other party has already She could make some guesses about the information itself, so she didn't fall for it.
So, Ding, who failed in the temptation, couldn't help but think about it again and again.
After a while, he spoke again: "If I agree to this deal, what do you want me to pay?"
Finally reaching this point, Ling Sheng'er couldn't help but feel. Although she was getting excited, she remained calm on the surface and said in a calm tone: "Boss Ding has great hands and eyes. You must have heard that you have a colleague who also runs a brothel. According to legend, his name is 'Shu Ye' ..."
Ding couldn't help but his face changed. This was the first time today that he showed some fear.
"Why are you asking about him?" Ding couldn't help but know that even if he said he hadn't heard of it, the other party wouldn't believe it, so he simply stopped pretending.
"Does Boss Ding have any friendship with him?" Ling Sheng'er answered the question.
"No." Ding couldn't help but replied categorically, "I definitely don't want to."
"Ha..." Ling Sheng'er sneered, "In that case, Boss Ding You know his methods."
"It doesn't matter whether I know it or not," Ding Buzhu said, "What matters is why you mentioned him?"
"I can't mention it. Him?" Ling Sheng'er said.
"You shouldn't mention him." Ding couldn't help but say.
"I've already mentioned it." Ling Sheng'er said, "And I also want to ask, Boss Ding, do you owe him any favors?"
"I'm lucky. I don’t owe him anything.” Ding Buzhu said, “But I know what it means to owe him a favor, and I can probably guess what kind of deal you are going to discuss with me next.”
"Then do you still listen?" Ling Sheng'er asked.
Ding could not help but remain silent...
For a long time.
"I listen." Ding couldn't help but finally took this very dangerous step.
After receiving this answer, Ling Sheng'er couldn't help but look at Ding with gratitude and admiration.
She filled up another glass for herself: "Boss Ding, after finishing this glass, please listen to me." The transcoding has been serious recently, which makes us more motivated and updates faster. Could you please help? moveLittle hands exit reading mode. Thank you
