The man in gray sneered, and then sneered: "That's right, I want you to understand before you die."
Su Fan pretended to be nervous, but he was actually nervous. He said with a trembling voice: "Senior only said he wanted the junior's things, but he didn't say he wanted to kill anyone."
The man in gray was stunned, but he didn't expect Su Fan to be so eloquent. He said angrily: "If I want to kill you, I will kill you. How about that?"
Su Fan smiled bitterly and said, "Then wouldn't this insult the reputation of the senior?"
The man in gray was silent and thought to himself, how could I, the eighteenth generation direct descendant of the Shangguan family, kill a junior? If word spread, what kind of face would I have? How could I survive in the Song Dynasty?
Seeing that he was not angry, Su Fan continued: "Since senior wants that jade pendant, we can discuss it."
Seeing that Su Fan was no longer tough, the man in gray softened his tone slightly and said, "In this case, give me the jade pendant. As long as you promise not to tell anything about what happened today, I won't kill you."
Su Fan groaned secretly, it seemed that the jade pendant really couldn't be saved today.
Seeing that Su Fan didn't make any move, the man in gray scolded: "If you don't hurry up, are you waiting for me to regret it?"
Su Fan hurriedly waved his hand and said: "That jade pendant is very important to me, can we really not discuss it anymore?"
This is the first time in the world of cultivation that a monk in the late stage of Jindan bargains with a monk in the state of mind transformation.
The world of cultivation is full of predators. The weak are like ants in front of the strong. As long as it is something that the strong likes, the strong will usually kill people and seize treasures. There is no nonsense.
During this time, Su Fan was able to talk to him for a long time. If word of this spread out, Zatoni would still be unable to express his feelings. I am afraid that some low-level monks would kneel in front of Su Fan and pray for a solution.
You must know that some people will never be able to see a monk who has transformed his mind in this life, let alone communicate with him or even bargain with him.
Part of the reason for this is that Su Fan can adapt to circumstances, pry into people's hearts and do what they like.
But a bigger part of the reason is the man in gray. He comes from the four major families of the Song Dynasty. He lives in the imperial capital all year round and leads a life of fine clothing and fine food.
Given his status, he may have never encountered intrigue or even the slightest deceit in his entire life.
Su Fan was different. Ever since he embarked on the path of spiritual practice, he had been filled with panic every day. What he worried about all day long was not where to go for entertainment, but how to save his life.
In this way, the man in gray has naturally developed a kind-hearted attitude. Killing is not his strong point. Maybe he has never killed anyone.
So he didn't kill Su Fan directly, so he didn't go to watch Su Fan kill the old man in red. He didn't even dare to look at the corpses littering the main hall.
But being kind-hearted does not mean that you will not rob. A prosperous life in the powerful background of the imperial capital will definitely create an overbearing and unreasonable person.
The man in gray no longer wanted to say anything to Su Fan, so he raised his hand to snatch the jade pendant around Su Fan's waist.
Su Fan was startled and shouted: "Wait a minute."
At this time, asking people to stop was nothing more than a muddled remark uttered in a hurry. But the man in gray actually stopped. He looked at Su Fan aggrievedly and shouted: "Will you give it to me or not? I really don't want to give it to you."
Just take action.”
Su Fan looked at the monk who was in a state of mind, acting like a child, and laughed unconsciously. However, he felt guilty and comforted: "That thing is really important to me, I can't give it to you."
Su Fan was wrong. The child-like man in gray was not a real child, but a state of mind.
It is the nature of monks to be cruel and ruthless. Without such nature, they would not be able to practice even in the palace of the Song Dynasty, let alone cultivate to the state of mind.
When Su Fan lost his guard, when he was at his weakest, the man in gray's hand had already touched the jade pendant.
When Su Fan found out, he screamed, but it was too late.
The man in gray has already grasped the jade pendant with one hand, and with just a slight pull, the jade pendant will be his.
Just when Su Fan was shocked and turned pale, the jade pendant emitted a dim black light, and a gray dragon flew out from Su Fan's storage bag and hit the man in gray on the chest.
The man in gray hurriedly threw away the jade pendant he had received, like throwing away a hot potato, so directly and surely.
The gray dragon wrapped around the man in gray clothes. After a circle, it quickly flew back to the storage bag as if it was disturbed by something.
This gray dragon is very obedient. As long as Su Fan doesn't summon it, it usually won't attack people.
Today, it actually flew out of the storage bag. When it was so unbelievable, Su Fan could only attribute it to the gray dragon protector's eagerness, although this explanation was extremely far-fetched.
Without the entanglement of the gray dragon, the man in gray quickly regained his composure, but the doubt in his eyes became even stronger.
The man in gray clothes looked at the disappearing gray dragon and said to himself: "That is the aura of the green dragon embroidered statue at the Blue Dragon Shrine in the imperial capital. How could it be..."
It seemed that something terrible had disturbed him, and the man in gray shouted loudly: "Master Situ, why are you here?"
"Master Situ?"
Su Fan was stunned, when did Mr. Situ appear?
While I was thinking, a figure in white appeared in the sky which was not yet bright.
The man's clothes were very white, whiter than Zui Xian's face. So he could see clearly in the dim light, and even more clearly he could see the sinister face.
Su Fan looked at the man coldly, thinking about how to escape from here. One state of mind was enough to make him die countless times, and now another one came.
Mr. Situ glanced at Su Fan casually, looked at the man in gray with a smile, and said, "Long time no see, Mr. Shangguan."
The man in gray clothes said to himself: "You have followed me for so long and yet you still say you haven't seen me for a long time. How shameless."
The voice was very soft, and only Su Fan and him could hear it. Su Fan suddenly felt relieved. It turned out that the two people did not have a friendly relationship, thus avoiding the danger of a flanking attack.
The Situ Master didn't know whether he heard this sentence or not, but he still said with a smile: "Shangguan Master, I don't know what you are doing in this remote border place."
The man in gray, Mr. Shangguan, said coldly: "Of course he came here while traveling."
"Are you traveling? I only heard that wherever Mr. Shangguan goes, there must be valuable treasures. I don't know what kind of treasures there are. How about some of them." Mr. Situ said matter-of-factly.
Mr. Shangguan was very angry and said in a deep voice: "No."
Mr. Situ glanced at Su Fan and said with a smile, "No? Then I want to take this little brother away."
Mr. Shangguan said angrily: "Impossible, do you want to fight today?"
Su Fan sneered secretly, "I'm going to let you two kill each other today. I don't think I can reap the benefits."
Su Fan suddenly laughed and said, "Why do you two argue anymore? You two can cut me in half and take one half away. Mr. Shangguan will take the upper part, and Mr. Situ will take the lower part."
