Zhuo Duoerhan's face darkened and he said: "What are you talking about, Mrs. Zhong? Our Manchu Empire is a country of etiquette and justice. Our banner came to Human Village just for business. We have never been a bandit. We are going to Hu Lu tonight." Ba and the others had good intentions when they accidentally broke into the inn, and since they didn’t kill anyone in your life, I think it’s better to just forget it.”
"Forget it, that's putting it lightly. They forced their way into the inn, smashed the courtyard into this state, and injured Ou's apprentice. They can't leave here without giving an explanation," the one who spoke But it was Ouyang Yong.
Duan Wu had a fierce fight with Hu Luba. Although he was not seriously injured, his clothes were torn and his body had a lot of scratches and bruises. Several large holes were smashed into the outer wall of the small building, and the courtyard It was even more of a mess inside.
Of course, if we want to calculate the casualties, in addition to eight of the men in black under Hu Luba being killed by Li Hu, Hou Xiaochuan also stabbed several of them. The damage to the "Black Wind Flag" was obviously more serious.
Zhuo Turhan narrowed his eyes and asked, "Then what do you want me to explain to you?"
Ouyang Yong had a fiery temper and wanted to rush in for a fight immediately, but he heard Zhong Bailong say: "Brother A Yong, come here, Mr. Gu, go talk to them."
If Zhuo Duoerhan's large army had not arrived, there would only be Horuba and more than thirty men in black in this courtyard. With the current manpower of "Bai Longxing", there would be no problem in annihilating them, but under the current situation But the outcome is unpredictable. "Black Wind Flag" and "Bailongxing" are both powerful forces in Human Village. Their strength is equally matched. If they really want to fight with face and face, they will probably lose in the end. Both sides suffer losses.
Zhong Bailong was a prudent person, so he called back Ouyang Yong, who was brave and foolhardy, and asked Gu Xunhua to deal with the matter.
Gu Xunhua shook her feather fan lightly and said loudly: "Zhuo Tuo Banner Master, no matter what the reason is, your subordinates broke into my Bailongxing inn, smashed many things, and injured the shopkeeper. It should not be done. In Gu's opinion, at least some silver should be paid as compensation for repairs."
Zhuo Duoerhan said: "Then how much silver do you want?"
Gu Xunhua said: "You and I are doing business in Human City. We need to show some kindness. Gu can't ask for more. Let's do this. The leader of Zhuotuo Banner will compensate us 50,000 silver taels, and this matter can be revealed. Pass,"
Fifty thousand silver taels is not a small amount, and it is more than enough to rebuild a Deyuan Inn. When Gu Xunhua proposed this amount, it was really a lion's mouth. Zhuo Duoerhan had lost his troops tonight, and he still had to pay out this many silver taels. , I felt very unwilling in my heart.
However, before he could refuse, there was a delicate voice beside him saying: "Fifty thousand taels is not too much. I can promise to compensate the Zhuotuo Banner for the money, but you, Bailong Xing, must also pay for it." You have to agree to a condition,"
The person who spoke was none other than Shi Qingzhu.
Gu Xunhuadao: "What conditions?"
Shi Qingzhu said: "A traitor of our sect brought two hostages and stayed at your inn. Now I want to clean up the sect and capture these three people. I also ask Bailongxing to make it easier and not to interfere."
Gu Xunhua said: "Oh, but I don't know what to call this girl or what sect she studied under."
Shi Qingzhu said: "You don't need to know any of this. As long as you agree to my conditions, 50,000 silver taels will be handed over immediately."
Gu Xunhua coughed slightly and said: "There are rules in the Human Village that prohibit fighting. The girl must not know it. Even if you really have any personal grudges, you can't fight in the city, let alone these three people." People who stay in our inn are our customers. "Bailong Hotel" should have the responsibility to protect them and not allow others to hurt them. If others spread that our bank paid 50,000 silver taels and ignored the safety of our guests, we will Isn't 'Bai Lung's reputation discredited?"
Shi Qingzhu's eyes flashed with a sharp edge, and he said: "To tell you the truth, these three people are closely related. I am bound to win. Mr. Gu, the power I can mobilize is beyond your imagination." Bailong Bank is just a small trading firm in Human City. If you really don't know the current affairs, I'm afraid you won't end up well. You have to think clearly about how to choose."
This was an extremely explicit threat, and when Shi Qingzhu said this, his eyes were filled with fierce killing intent. When Gu Xunhua's eyes met hers, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. Gu Xunhua was also very human. You can tell that the words of the woman with a green gauze mask are not just false threats. She does have powerful enough means to affect the fate of "Bai Long Xing".
"Hey, the traitor you just said you wanted to arrest is me," while Gu Xunhua was frightened and speechless, Li Hu took two steps forward and said.
Shi Qingzhu turned to look at Li Hu, with a chill in his eyes, and said: "Yes, it's you. I have always treated you well, but you betrayed the organization, sabotaged the action plan, and caused the death of your fellow disciples. Are you worthy of me?" What,"
Li Hu snorted and said: "The action plan you made was just to treat us as cannon fodder. If I hadn't been smart enough, I would probably be a dead person by now. I don't know if you don't want me or if I am sorry for you."
Shi Qingzhu said: "There was an accident that day, and I couldn't predict it. How can I say that I treated you as cannon fodder?"
Her eyes stopped on Li Hu's face, her voice suddenly softened, and she said: "Wang Chong, you and I have finally shared the same bed. For the sake of our past friendship, if you take the carriage in the carriage now, If you hand over the two men, not only will I not kill you, but the conditions I promised you before will still be fulfilled. How about that?"
Li Hu said: "I risked my life to take those two people out of the capital. I just handed them over with an empty promise from you. How can it be so cheap?"
Shi Qingzhu said: "Then what do you want?"
Li Hu grinned, and suddenly moved his lips slightly, but he used the sound transmission technique to Shi Qingzhu: "What a man wants is nothing more than fame, fortune, wealth and beautiful women, and I, the king insect, am no exception, but this time I To have a face-to-face interview with Mr. Jun, the conditions are expensive, and only he can make the decision,"
Shi Qingzhu stared at Li Hu's face, as if to read what he was thinking. After a moment, he sent a message and replied: "This matter is absolutely impossible. You don't know. Only us, Master Jun, can do this." I will never meet anyone else. You can only tell me your conditions and I will convey them to you."
Li Hu's face darkened and he sent a message: "The identities of the prince and princess are so important. I have committed a capital crime by kidnapping them. The court will definitely not let me go. If Tianchu wants to get them, they must at least give me enough money." How can I know your father's sincerity if I don't see your father's face?"
A cold light flashed in his eyes, "If this condition cannot be met, everything is off the table. You can try to use these Jurchens to see if you can snatch the prince and princess away."
Shi Qingzhu snorted coldly and said: "I will report this matter to Mr. Jun. It is up to him to decide whether to see you or not. However, if you think that you are protected by 'Bailongxing', the organization can't do anything to you. That's not true." Wrong idea,"
Li Hu's eyes widened and he stopped transmitting. He said sternly: "Okay, let's just wait and see."
While Li Hu and Shi Qingzhu were talking via voice, Zhong Bailong also waved to Gu Xunhua and whispered a few words in a low voice.
Gu Xunhua nodded and said loudly: "Tonight, the subordinates of the Black Wind Banner broke into our hotel property, injured people, and destroyed property. If we don't pay fifty thousand taels of silver, we will never stop. We will stay here The guests in the inn are protected by my 'Bailong Xing', and no one else is allowed to harm them."
This "Scar Zhuge" has such a tough attitude, obviously he was ordered by Boss Zhong.
Zhuo Duoerhan, his beard and hair standing on end, shouted: "So, you want both money and people, and you are determined to make things difficult for us, the Black Wind Banner."
Angry in his heart, he wanted to order his men to give a signal and prepare for a big fight, but as soon as he raised his arm, he was stopped by someone before he waved it down.
It was Shi Qingzhu who stopped Zhuo Tuo Erhan. Her eyes were as cold as ice and she said coldly: "Zhuo Tuo Banner Master, pay them 50,000 silver taels and let's go."
Paying money and leaving, Zhuo Tuo Erhan had never suffered such a loss. Just when he was about to object, he heard Shi Qingzhu say: "If Zhuo Tuo Banner wants to continue the transaction, he should act according to my instructions. "
Although there are many people from the "Black Wind Banner" on the street outside, enough to compete with the "Bai Longxing" disciples in the inn, this is the territory of the "Bailongxing" after all, and many of the surrounding properties are owned by Han people. It is easier to have manpower. If you really fight, the chance of winning is not high. At most, both sides will be injured.
Although the victory or defeat of the "Black Wind Flag" is not in Shi Qingzhu's eyes, if Li Hu escapes with the prince and princess again, it will be even more difficult to find them.
Therefore, instead of fighting to the death right now, it is better to monitor Li Hu and the others first, and then think of a safer way.
Zhuo Duoerhan originally had an angry look on his face and refused to suffer a loss, but when he heard Shi Qingzhu mention the word "transaction", he immediately suppressed his anger and said: "Okay, come here and pay them compensation."
Fifty thousand taels of silver notes were given to Gu Xunhua, Shi Qingzhu, Zhuo Duoerhan and everyone in the "Black Wind Flag" retreated angrily. Ge Li walked at the end and looked back at Li Hu when he was leaving the hospital. One glance, his eyes full of ferocity.
Li Hu also raised his eyes and looked at Ge Li. They knew in their hearts that although there was no time to tell the winner today, the two of them were destined to fight again, and then they would fight to the death.
After all the Black Wind Banners had left the inn, Zhong Bailong walked up to Li Hu, cupped his hands and said, "This is Brother King Chong. Is the person you are protecting in the small building behind?"
Li Hu said: "I am the king insect, they are upstairs now,"
Zhong Bailong said: "Zhong wants to go in for a meeting, but I don't know if it's convenient."
