Although this Xuantian Continent is very big, there are not many uncles who can truly be called rich, and there are even fewer uncles who are rich and have personality.
The beggar old man is one of these few people. His wealth is recognized by the entire Xuantian Continent. As long as he likes something, no matter how expensive it is, he will buy it and spend money until others are weak.
And his personality is not only that he is a shopaholic, but also that he always likes to dress himself in tatters. When he is free, he even plays a cameo as a beggar and competes with the real beggars on the street. Started a business.
Probably because he was unhappy staying in other big places, this weird old man came to this kind of no-nonsense area, probably because he wanted to find some novel things to play with.
At this time, this rich man with personality was on the first floor of the Xihe Chamber of Commerce, walking around carelessly in tattered clothes.
Many books written by poor literati in the secular world describe rich people as fools who only know how to show off. In fact, these are just wishful thinking of those poor literati.
Those who can buy things in Xihe Chamber of Commerce are naturally rich people, and what these rich people must have is of course discernment.
When the old beggar pointed out in the lobby on the first floor that the sword bought by the customer here was not good enough and the medicinal materials bought by the customer there were not authentic enough, many customers on the first floor were attracted by the old beggar and asked him to come over. The old man looked for some good goods for himself.
The old beggar seemed to like this feeling very much. He bared his teeth and pointed to the east and compared with the west in an arrogant manner.
Of course, the similar items he selected were naturally better than what the guests had chosen, which attracted more people to gather around. Even Ling Xiao couldn't help but become curious about the old man.
It was not until a well-dressed young woman came out and took the old beggar to the reception room on the top floor with a smile that the guests on the first floor reluctantly said goodbye to the old beggar as if they were breaking up with their lover.
He was taken to the reception room together with the old beggar, and naturally there were Ling Xiao and Ling Shiyu.
In the luxurious reception room, Long Yuxuan's white clothes and Ling Shiyu's red clothes contrasted with each other, making Ling Xiao's eyes dazzle.
Seeing her idol again, Ling Shiyu couldn't help but want to go up and chat with Long Yuxuan, but a kind of inferiority from the bottom of her heart made Ling Shiyu stop her steps and could only stand in the distance and watch Long Yuxuan. Yuxuan.
As the president of the Xihe Chamber of Commerce and a strong woman, Long Yuxuan is naturally the idol of Ling Shiyu, a child from a business family.
"Senior Hai, why did you come without notifying me in advance?" It seemed that Long Yuxuan was very familiar with this old beggar.
The old beggar raised his beard, rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "Girl Long, you have good things here and you don't sell them to me. It's really not fun."
Long Yuxuan hid her surprise well and smiled slightly: "Senior Hai, I don't know what you are talking about."
Even through the veil, Long Yuxuan's smile was still lethal. Not to mention Ling Xiao, even Ling Shiyu couldn't help but praise in her heart: The president is so beautiful...
The old beggar casually grabbed Ling Xiao, who was standing far away, and was grabbed by the old beggar with one hand: "Ask this boy what I want to buy."
Ling Xiao reluctantly took out the piece of dead wood: "This is it..."
Not to mention the old beggar, even Long Yuxuan's eyes lit up: "Ling... Xiao, where did this come from?"
The old beggar was stunned for a moment, then he understood immediately and shouted: "Okay, you little boy, how dare you lie to me, it turns out this thing is yours."
Ling Shiyu still didn't understand why even Long Yuxuan couldn't help but be moved by Ling Xiao's hand with such a piece of wood.
She sighed. It seemed that she was so poor in vision, so she was much worse than the president.
Ling Xiao rolled his eyes, but he still told the origin of the dead wood: "I killed the old demon of Kongshan and found it in his soul chain."
Long Yuxuan suddenly sneered and said: "I didn't expect that those guys from the Kongshan Gang would have the guts to covet the treasures of Xihe City. It's really ridiculous."
Ling Shiyu was completely confused: The treasure belongs to Xihe City. Do we have any other treasures in Xihe City?
Long Yuxuan suddenly realized that Ling Shiyu was beside him, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, revealing his murderous intent.
Ling Xiao quickly stood in front of Ling Shiyu and shouted loudly: "Wait a minute."
No matter how stupid Ling Shiyu was, she knew that she had heard something she shouldn't have heard, and her face suddenly turned pale.
At this time, the figure of Ling Xiao standing in front of her became extremely friendly.
This nominal master looks more like his bodyguard.
Long Yuxuan snorted coldly: "Why, it's so pity for the beauty."
"As long as it is within the scope of my ability, no one can touch my person, even if she is just my slave." Ling Xiao looked directly at Long Yuxuan, not caring about the murderous intent of the other party in his eyes.
Ling Shiyu felt warm in her heart. Apart from my father and master, he is the best person to me...
Long Yuxuan's eyes showed a mocking look: "Boy, your ability is within the scope of your ability. If I want to crush you to death now, it will be easy."
"Really?" Ling Xiao immediately gave the other party a mocking smile: "The scar on your face has become less itchy recently."
Long Yuxuan's beautiful eyes widened, and her whole body trembled slightly: "What on earth did you do?"
Ling Xiao said coldly: "It's nothing, I just relieve some of your pain. However, if I die, your pain will double in ten days."
Long Yuxuan was so angry that he gritted his teeth. This guy who looked extremely lustful had actually poisoned himself while he was touching his scar. He was not even aware of it.
Long Yuxuan said word by word: "How dare you threaten me."
Ling Xiao retorted: "You forced me to do this, businessman. Only a devil would believe what a profit-seeking businessman says. How dare I stay here with such arrogance without leaving any backup plan?"
"Haha..." The old beggar laughed, as if he had seen something very interesting: "Long girl, this problem is actually easy to solve. Let the little girl in red stay here with her master. That is, as long as we find the treasure, we can just erase the little girl’s memory about this."
Looking at Long Yuxuan's eyes that were still full of murderous intent, the old man continued: "As for this boy, there is one most critical thing that he relies on his central beast."
"Purple Jade Qilin." Long Yuxuan's eyes immediately changed when she looked at Ling Xiao, as if she was surprised.
The old beggar nodded: "You can't find anything even after you've worn iron shoes. It doesn't take much effort to get here. It seems like you've come to the right place this time, haha."
After receiving the old beggar's confirmation, Long Yuxuan no longer thought about killing Ling Shiyu.
If she wanted to kill him, she would kill Ling Xiao as well.
"Ling Xiao, take your slave back to the room. If you need anything, just tell the servants at the door. You are not allowed to step out of the room without my order." Long Yuxuan said coldly: "You threaten me, I'm threatening you with this girl's life, so it's best for everyone to be wise and stay safe."
Ling Xiao said calmly: "There is one thing I forgot to tell you. After ten days, you'd better let me touch your face again, otherwise, the pain will be doubled. Don't blame me for not reminding you."
If Ling Xiao could be killed, Long Yuxuan would definitely cut Ling Xiao into eight pieces, chop each piece into minced meat, and feed it to the dogs.
"Get lost." Long Yuxuan's gnashing of teeth at this time is probably something only she can understand.
The old beggar was gloating at the sidelines and laughing loudly: "Interesting, interesting, Long girl, this is the first time I have seen you fall into trouble in so many years, haha."
"Please go and explain to this girl's father, so that her father won't worry." After saying these words, Ling Xiao pulled the frightened Ling Shiyu back to the room that looked like a small cell.
"How could this happen? Wuwu..." Ling Shiyu couldn't help but burst into tears. She squatted in the corner of the room, hugged her knees and sobbed softly.
This little girl did have a reason to cry. Her idol Long Yuxuan was so cruel and ruthless. That perfect image was instantly shattered in her mind.
What makes her even more sad is that she has lost her personal freedom and doesn't know how long she will be imprisoned or whether she will die.
The only thing I'm thankful for is that my "beast" owner seems to be pretty good to me. At least he can temporarily guarantee his personal safety.
It's just that if you have to be locked up with this "beast" owner all day long, who knows if he will become animalistic and then...
Ling Shiyu shook her head violently, forget it, she is just a girl without a mother, if her life is going to be miserable, then her life will be miserable.
This master who seems to kill people very quickly is not too bad looking...
Ling Xiao had no time to think about what dirty things Ling Shiyu was thinking about now. His mind was entirely focused on the conversation between the two people just now.
Ling Xiao had deceived Long Yuxuan before, but in fact he did not poison Long Yuxuan's face. The scar on Long Yuxuan's face improved because of the seven souls of the demon chain soul power in Ling Xiao's body and the scar. The power of the curse was extremely close, so it naturally absorbed some of it, easing Long Yuxuan's pain.
Long Yuxuan's expression changed wildly because she didn't notice that Ling Xiao had poisoned her. But Ling Xiao didn't poison her at all, so how could she possibly notice it?
Although the scene where Long Yuxuan was tricked just now was thrilling, Ling Xiao's heart didn't even beat a few times. Even the old beggar and Long Yuxuan, two old gangsters, couldn't notice that Ling Xiao was there. Trick people.
When it comes to deceiving people now, Ling Xiao is definitely one of the best in Xuantian Continent.
Ling Xiao was not worried that Long Yuxuan would find out that she had tricked him. What he was worried about now was what she and the old beggar were going to use Xiao Linzi for.
"Ling Shiyu, come here and ask you something." Ling Xiao waved his hand, signaling Ling Shiyu to get up and talk.
Ling Shiyu wiped away her tears and showed a look of determination on her face, as if she was ready to die heroically: "Come on."
Looking at the girl's posture, Ling Xiao knew that this girl must be thinking about that again. Since the other party was so active, if she continued to procrastinate, wouldn't she be looked down upon by this girl?
"Humph." Ling Xiao snorted coldly and casually pulled off a large section of Ling Shiyu's sleeves, revealing her jade arms as smooth as lotus roots.
"Ah." Ling Shiyu screamed, her big eyes showed an extremely frightened look, she took two or three steps back, and her big tears rolled down again.
"Little girl, if you're scared, don't pretend." Ling Xiao said coldly: "Tell me honestly, are there any places in Xihe City that may be the hiding places for the treasures they mentioned."
