"Which of the thirty-eight city lords along the Qinglong Mountains wants these villagers to mine? Why should I be the only one who wants to pay for it with my life?" Looking at Xiao Zhen, Wang Di seemed a little excited when he spoke. Maybe he had already felt it.
The Xiao Zhen who stayed with him seemed to be different from some of the cultivators he had come into contact with before.
In the past, the cultivators he came into contact with were all greedy guys. Not to mention others, Wang Su just now had enough confidence that one hundred thousand square Yuan Yu could make Xiao Zhen let him go. However, Xiao Zhen
He refused without any hesitation, and he also wanted to help those guys who, in his opinion, were worse than ants. This made him feel incredibly unbelievable.
"Does he think one hundred thousand cubic meters is too little?" As soon as the thought flashed in his mind, Wang Di showed a calm expression again.
"Okay! Very good. All the city lords of the thirty-eight cities are like this. Thirty-eight super rich people are really like him. It's so rare." After hearing Wang Su's words, Xiao Zhen became angry and became more and more angry.
Although Xiao Zhen was angry, he became calmer. As soon as Xiao Zhen said these words, Wang Di felt even more relieved.
"Haha, maybe you think it's too much, but this is the reality. We, the city lords, have to give these villagers a number every year. If we don't pay in full, we will be punished. In fact, we are forced to have no choice. The state general also gives us a number every year.
Each of our thirty-eight cities has a target. If we fail to meet it, we, the city lords, will not even be guaranteed our lives, let alone continue to be city lords!"
Probably because he saw Xiao Zhenji's "hypocrisy", Wang Di also had a sympathetic tone in his words, "Actually, I also sympathize with the villagers in the mountain villages. After all, I can't do it for them."
And I don’t have the strength to disobey the Lord General. What’s more important is that if I die, no one knows if the new city lord will be more ruthless than me. I’m afraid he will force all these villagers.
Die."
"Oh, listen to what you said, you are still a good city lord. Although the villagers lived in pain under your hands, they at least saved their lives, right?"
Listening to Wang Su's words, Xiao Zhen immediately sneered again and again. Wang Su now looked pitiful, but Xiao Zhen was not touched at all, because Xiao Zhen knew very well that Wang Su had already changed his mind from the inside out.
Guys who are all rotten, there is no such thing as a human heart.
"Haha, yes, it's great that you can understand." After hearing Xiao Zhen's words, Wang Di was immediately overjoyed, "It's not easy for the city lord to do this. In order to achieve the goal of the state general, and to protect the villagers below,
It is really difficult to do, very difficult to do, our Qingjiao City can only hand over the raw jade that meets the requirements of General Fuzhou every year."
"Listen to what you said, Luo Tianfeng presses you very hard. Then I'm surprised. You only have so little ability to complete the amount specified by Luo Tianfeng every year. Then how can you possibly have 100,000 square meters of jade to give you?
What about me? Or, what you said just now is all a lie to me, and the one hundred thousand original jade does not exist at all?" With a weird smile, Xiao Zhen asked Wang Su with a chuckle.
"Haha, don't worry. Although the state general is pressing hard, we in Qingqiao City can still have a little left over every year. I have put these in the secret vault. The accumulation over the years will naturally be quite large.
Now, I can still come up with 100,000 square meters of raw jade."
"Very good, but I don't think 100,000 square meters of raw jade can buy your life. I want 200,000 square meters." Xiao Zhen smiled and looked at Wang Di. As soon as Xiao Zhen's words came out, Wang Di's expression changed.
It changed immediately.
"Two hundred thousand square meters?" Not only did Wang Su's expression change, but He Zhong, who had never dared to take action, also had a strong greed in his eyes. Now he even had the urge to kill Xiao Zhen and rob the king.
He came over to threaten Wang Su. Now He Zhong regrets it. He regrets being an idiot bodyguard. If he had kidnapped Wang Su earlier, he might have gotten more.
"What? No, then I'm sorry." After saying that, Xiao Zhen began to increase his strength and felt a strong force in his heart began to gather. Wang Di was startled and said quickly: "Yes! Yes! It's just that you want to
Let me go first and then I will take you to get it!"
"Impossible, do you think I'm that kind of fool? You take me there, I'll take it, you go, otherwise, you'll die here." Although he was smiling, Xiao Zhen's eyes were filled with tears.
It was so cold that there was no doubt that Xiao Zhen could crush Wang Di to pieces at any time!
"Humph, I'm not a fool. What if I take you here and you kill me? Don't forget, your enemy is He Zhong. If you don't let me go, the worst is to break up. He Zhong will take a rest.
I'm afraid you've already recovered after taking so long. With him here, how sure are you of getting the original jade?"
After a pause, Wang Su continued: "You are just asking for money. If you let me go, I will naturally give you the original jade, but you have to pay attention to the bargaining chips."
"Really? Let's see if I have enough chips." The moment Xiao Zhen finished speaking, a crampon exuding an extremely cold aura suddenly poked out from behind He Zhong and blasted through it.
He Zhong's chest was a little dazed by the 200,000 square yuan jade. He Zhong actually forgot to dodge and let the crampon penetrate his chest easily. Just when he was trying to turn around with difficulty.
, a snow-white light spurted out, and He Zhong's head, filled with terror, instantly transformed into the latest chapter of the Almighty Master of Cultivation.
He Zhong was killed inexplicably, and the person who took action was a stunning woman covered in frost. This made Wang Su feel dizzy for a moment, and Xiao Zhen's words made him feel even more frightened.
"Okay City Master Wang, do you think there is any difference between me letting you go now and not letting you go? Even if I let you go, can you run away? So, are you taking me to get something now?
Or just die here? Your bargaining chip is gone."
Wang Di's face was as pale as paper, but he nodded wisely. Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Zhen took out a dark and smelly elixir from the ring and stuffed it into his mouth.
Said: "Also, because I don't know what tricks you can play, I will give you the best poison pill produced by Nanzhanzhou to try first."
After hearing Xiao Zhen's words, Wang Su's face turned livid with fright. As soon as he got lucky, he immediately felt an abnormal heat rising in his lower abdomen. He immediately judged that what Xiao Zhen said was definitely not a joke.
It's not surprising that he thinks so. You have to know that most of the elixirs refined by cultivators in Jiuzhou Continent are fragrant. How can there be such a smelly elixir? The only possibility is that it is refined by those uncivilized guys in Nanzhanzhou.
Poison would cause this, and he already knew from He Zhong that Xiao Zhen and his party were the ones who killed the guard of Hulao Pass, which also proved that Xiao Zhen and others came back from Nanzhanzhou.
As a result, coupled with the strange heat rising in his lower abdomen, he naturally thought that he was really poisoned. Thinking of the terrifying appearance of those legendary cultivators in Nanzhanzhou who were poisoned, Wang Su felt his scalp numb for a while.
, after taking a deep breath, Wang Su said: "I will take you there, but you must promise to give me the antidote!"
"Of course, I will definitely give you the 'antidote'." Xiao Zhen said to Wang Su with a chuckle.
After walking into the mansion that Wang Su had just come out of, Xiao Zhen and Jixue, led by Wang Su, came to an abandoned well in the backyard of the mansion. When the three of them fell into the abandoned well, they discovered
, there is actually a cave inside this abandoned well.
"You don't even have to lower the restrictions, you are so relieved." Along the way, Xiao Zhen found that there was not even a trace of restrictions around him, so he couldn't help but glance at Wang Di in surprise. After hearing Xiao Zhen's words, Wang Di just showed his face.
He smiled indifferently and said: "When you set up a ban, don't you tell others that there are treasures here? When all cultivators are looking for something, the first thing they think of is to sense whether there are any bans around them, right?"
After hearing Wang Su's words, Xiao Zhen nodded. I have to say that Wang Su really expressed "the most dangerous place is the safest place" very brilliantly. I'm afraid no one would have thought that Wang Su had a lot of
The treasure is placed under an abandoned well, and there is not even a restriction.
After manually moving a heavy stone door open, the next moment, both Xiao Zhen and Ji Xue were dazzled by the cyan light in front of them.
Squares of raw jade were neatly built into a green city wall. Xiao Zhen and Jixue saw the dazzling light for the first time. Seeing the shocked looks of Xiao Zhen and Jixue, Wang Di
He said: "The raw jade here is about 150,000 square meters, and the remaining 50,000 square meters, I will make up for it with the inventory in the city lord's palace." Looking at the city wall made of raw jade, at this moment
Wang Di also felt very heartbroken, 150,000 square meters of raw jade! How many years of savings was that? Thinking of this, Wang Di was even more heartbroken and vomited blood, but compared with his life, he didn't care anymore.
Because he has hidden more raw jade, he can continue to exploit it as long as he doesn't die.
"One hundred and fifty thousand, that's pretty good. Don't worry, I'll get the rest myself. Your City Lord's Mansion is finished anyway." Najie's light kept flashing, and not long after, Xiao Zhen took the entire
The raw jade warehouse was emptied. Looking at Xiao Zhen's ring that could easily hold 150,000 square meters of raw jade, Wang Su was even more shocked. At this moment, Xiao Zhen let Wang Su go without waiting for Wang Su to speak.
, a cold breath penetrated directly into Wang Su's chest.
"I promised that I won't kill you, but I didn't guarantee that Ji Xue won't kill you. I can't control her will." Looking at Wang Su's expression of grief and anger, Xiao Zhen leaned into his ear and said coldly.
: "If you can still maintain your sanity when you get down there, say hello to King Fengdu and tell him that we sent you there. He might give you special treatment so that you can live more freely in the underworld."
