Yan Xiaoyu trusted Boss Qiao, so he explained the reason in detail, which made Yi Fan feel that the relationship between the two was very unusual.
"I see, but now that Ling is in trouble, she never thought she would have time to care about other people's affairs." Boss Qiao smiled with a hint of irony.
"I wonder what Boss Qiao means?" Yi Fan heard the suspicion and couldn't help but ask.
"Don't you know?" Boss Qiao was a little surprised. Seeing the two of them shaking their heads in confusion, he smiled and said: "In the battle of Yaofeng Ridge five years ago, the Ling clan was one of the three major clans under Baiding.
Among them, the Ling clan was ordered to be the vanguard. After the first battle, hundreds of thousands of people were killed and injured, and then they became lonely. They fell from the three major clans to the third-level clan, and now they belong to the Du clan."
"As the saying goes, a tiger is bullied by a dog when it falls in peace. The Du family has been oppressing the Ling family all year round, and after the news of Bai Ding Yunfei's death came out, the Du family even intensified."
Seeing Yi Fan's expression of sadness and guilt, Boss Qiao chuckled lightly and said, "You don't have to worry. After all, when the Ling clan was victorious in the past years, it was pretty good to interact with other clans. Even if the Du clan
No matter how brave you are, you don’t dare to act recklessly. It’s just a little bullying. The most you can do is get enough food and clothing from three meals in the past to two meals now. It won’t kill anyone.”
Whispered softly, the words sounded comforting, but the content was completely different, making Yi Fan's face turn pale and even more sad.
Yan Xiaoyu didn't know why Boss Qiao said that. He used to be gentle and gentle, but now he no longer existed. Instead, his words were so fiery that it was impossible to refute him.
"Boss Qiao, this matter is overstated. There are still more than twenty days before the marriage between the two clans. I wonder if you have a way to inquire about this matter." Yan Xiaoyu quickly smoothed things over and eased the atmosphere in the room.
.
"There is a passage, but it's a bit troublesome." Boss Qiao thought for a moment and said: "As far as I know, the Valley of Dead Souls is now very strictly inspected, and it's not easy to enter the valley, let alone enter.
Ghost Lantern City. Even if you have hundreds of clan tokens, you probably won’t be able to get in with your appearance."
"Just tell me if there is a way out. If there is any trouble, we will take care of it." Yi Fan pursed his lips, feeling that this matter was getting more and more complicated.
Boss Qiao nodded and said in a faint voice: "Have you ever heard of the Thief Saint?"
The two of them were startled. Naturally, they had heard of the name Thief Saint.
It is said that three thousand years ago, before even the Dexiao family had risen, this character already existed and is still alive today. He has many deeds, including stealing five treasures from the Lieshan family, almost destroying his family's wealth.
Xiao Ze defrauded little girls of the coins they used to buy candy. He had various deeds and committed countless cases. He was a legendary figure.
Rumor has it that the biggest case of saint robbers recently was the theft of the Baiding ancestral tomb a hundred years ago. It was where the patriarchs of the Baiding clan were buried. The treasures used for burials inside were priceless. It is said that the saint was stolen again.
After that, all that was left inside was a pile of dead bones.
It's okay to say that all the treasures were stolen, but the thief actually mixed the bones of the martyrs with the bones of the living burials, which caused a great chaos in the Baiding family at that time. They couldn't tell who the ancestors should worship. How is it now? That's not the case.
Forget it.
"The passage you are talking about, isn't it the Thief Saint?" Yi Fan asked in horror, but was trembling with fear at his own words.
Seeing Boss Qiao nodding solemnly, the two of them were speechless, their eyes widened, their ears were buzzing, and they couldn't believe it at all.
"Boss Qiao, are you kidding us?" Yan Xiaoyu swallowed hard.
"Do I look like I'm joking? You guys, look at these two words, I scared you so much..." The two of them swept away their fear and acted fearless. When Boss Qiao saw them pretending, he said,
He laughed mockingly and continued: "A few days ago, I received some rumors that Senior Thief Saint was visiting our Qiaohai City. If he hasn't left yet, I can try to contact you."
"Isn't it too much of a fuss to ask this old man to take action on something as big as a bean-sized marriage between two clans?" Yan Xiaoyu felt that something was wrong.
"Stupid!" Yi Fan immediately punched him and said with a sly smile: "Don't you want to see if this old man is human or ghost, male or female? He has not been dead for three thousand years, so he must have a lot of wrinkles on his face.
!”
Yan Xiaoyu thought it made sense and said with interest, "Maybe it's a zombie."
Seeing the two grown men talking about endless right and wrong, which was extremely childish, Boss Qiao rolled his eyes, shook his head and sighed: "So your decision is..."
"Of course I'll give it a try." The two said in unison.
With the answer, Boss Qiao ignored it, opened the door and went downstairs to work.
The more Yi Fan thought about it, the more curious he became, and he couldn't help but ask: "Brother Yan, what is the background of this boss Qiao? Not only can he hire a master like Liu San as his assistant, but he can also defeat the Thief Saint through the passage."
"I don't know either. Boss Qiao is also an extremely mysterious figure. No one knows her real name or origin, so people here call him Boss Qiao. And that guy Liu San is probably attracted by her beauty.
, or maybe he was hired with a lot of money." Yan Xiaoyu seemed to have thought of something, and chuckled: "When I came to Qiaohai City, Boss Qiao was still a little girl, only one year younger than me.
She has a pretty face, so I knew she would be a beauty when she grows up, but I didn't expect that she would be so beautiful."
Yi Fan nodded in agreement. Boss Qiao had delicate features, a sweet voice, and attractive and tall breasts. When he walked, he swayed and swayed his waist. Just one look at it made people anxious. Compared to Lieshan Ling'er's dignity, she
She is friendly and has no sense of distance. Compared with Ling Yiyi's charm, she is like a fairy who has long been accustomed to human life. Compared with Temushan's elegance, her shy smile is even more heart-warming.
Yi Fan couldn't help but blush because of his wild thoughts, and thought: "By the way, isn't Boss Qiao the same age as me? Brother Yan, you must have met her parents!"
Yan Xiaoyu shook his head and said: "No, when I was working as a clerk in Huyue Building, Boss Qiao was already the boss. I also asked the neighbors and heard that Boss Qiao bought this place with a large sum of money when he was seven years old.
A restaurant, haha, it sounds wonderful, I couldn’t believe it at the time.”
A seven-year-old girl inexplicably came to Qiaohai City, a lawless zone, and with a large sum of money that she was not afraid of being cheated by, she smashed down a restaurant for no reason and became the boss herself. Who would believe this?
Yi Fan didn't believe it for the moment, but he still accepted the fact.
…
Two days later, in a quiet night, Boss Qiao opened the door without saying a word and entered the room.
"You are lucky, the Thief Saint is still in Qiaohai City." Boss Qiao took Yi Fan's hand and picked up the cup he was going to drink from. He drank it all in one gulp and said quietly: "Tomorrow, it is said that the Thief Saint will meet
Appearing on East Street, this old man behaves strangely, and the contact is completely meaningless. Here! This is what he wrote."
A piece of paper was handed over. The handwriting was flying and phoenix-shaped. It said "East Street, everything depends on the carelessness." Among the seven hastily written words, there were two typos. I really don't know how long Thief Saint Sanqian has lived.
Or is it that his old eyesight is dim and his hand is shaking when writing.
Even though the Thief Saint has great magical powers and thrilling deeds, seeing these seven words can't help but make people feel a little unreliable. Moreover, the note was intended by Zhu Ronggang. After being slapped three times, he realized that he had misunderstood him.
But I have to say that it is really unconvincing for him to read this note with typos.
"It's inexplicable. You asked me to read it, but you still hit me." Zhu Ronggang was full of grievances and looked like he was about to cry.
Boss Qiao had already read the note and knew that there was a mistake in the wording, but seeing that Yan Xiaoyu and Yi Fan were fighting vigorously, he went up to join in the fun. Anyway, someone was looking for a slap, so the slap would not be in vain.
Seeing Zhu Ronggang sighing, the three of them had no time to pay attention. They all had a thought in their minds, that is: "Will the Thief Saint really appear on East Street?"
If you have lived for three thousand years and you still make typos, it must not be difficult to take the wrong path.
…
The next morning, when the sky was bright and clear, Yi Fan and others freshened up, had breakfast and headed to East Street. As the saying goes, the early bird catches the worm, it depends on whether you can try your luck and learn what the Thief Saint means by "everything".
Look at the carelessness'.
Zhu Ronggang yawned, his eyes were dull, and he walked like a wandering corpse. He did not forget to complain: "You are looking for your Thief Saint, and the opportunity to meet you is none of my business. Why do you have to do it?"
Pull me up."
Yan Xiaoyu frowned and turned back to chatter: "Is this your attitude towards your savior? I just asked you to accompany us for two steps. I listened to your complaints all the way. Anyway, we also treat you to a treat.
Just stay here and don’t care about it so much!"
"Bah!" Zhu Ronggang spat on the ground and became disobedient: "The food you paid for this morning was what I paid for, as was the money for the guest room last night. You are clearly treating me like a fat sheep to slaughter."
These words warmed people's hearts. Not only did Yi Fan not feel ashamed, but he laughed mischievously: "I can't help it. You are from a rich family now. You didn't see Liu San this morning."
That guy's face was blue just trying to find some scraps of silver for you."
"How young are you?" Zhu Ronggang didn't hold any grudge, he just asked casually.
"Like an eggplant, it scared me so much that I almost gave him two slaps." Yan Xiaoyu made exaggerated gestures, pretending, and shuddered.
Seeing Zhu Ronggang smiling so happily that he completely forgot that he was a fat sheep. Yi Fan secretly gave Yan Xiaoyu a thumbs up and laughed mischievously.
This trip was said to be to wait for God's will to meet the Thief Saint. In fact, the two of them went shopping in the name of busy work to see what new, fun and weird things there would be in the East Street so that they could buy them back to kill time, and they paid to get the things.
Yes, no need to ask, besides Zhu Ronggang, who else can be qualified for this position?
