Chapter 20
Five days later, in Cuiwei City.
The big belly soda was in a business, looking at the account book, and was in a panic.
His lineage is running a steel business.
This business has always been very good. Although this steel is mainly used by mortals, sometimes low-level monks can also use iron ore for refining weapons, so the sales channels of this business are very wide.
But five days ago, all suppliers came to urge repayment for no reason, and all channel dealers said they would no longer sell their goods. He sat on the spot like a thunderbolt.
He knew that this was offending someone who should not have offended, but he didn't know who this boss was.
He asked the accountant: "How long can our money last?"
"Master, we only have 50,000 taels of gold coins left. This is only enough to support this month at most. I'm afraid that it won't even pay wages to the workers in this month." The accountant said with a bitter face.
Soda Shui sighed and said, "Lack the employees!"
The shopkeeper on the side felt aggrieved: "Master, it's too late to lay off employees now. The iron miner urged us to settle the payment, but the payment was always owed. It was settled every three months. If we had to repay the payment in advance now, then the 50,000 taels of gold coins might not be paid back by two companies and they would be at the bottom."
Soda water fell into silence.
After a long time, he sighed to the sky: "Who offended who should have offended that big man should not be offended! If I know who it is, I can also apologize!"
…………
During these five days.
Su Jingtian expected a lot of things, but he didn't expect that Su Honghao had never paid attention to the Su family.
This is how people think that what they are paying attention to is also paying attention to, but in fact, Su Honghao has been wandering around the Blood Shadow Sect's Xiyu Hall for these five days.
Although he did not intend to enter the Blood Shadow Sect to be an undercover agent, it did not prevent him from investigating the situation and layout around Xiyutang.
At this time, he was looking at several players, patting one of them on the shoulder, and solemnly said: "You can do it well after you go in, I will help take care of your family."
A player named [Heart-wrenching Water Pickle] said: "Well, that, we don't have family, you might as well give some money more practical."
"Ahem, we are people with lofty ideals, so talking about money is too vulgar. In the face of ideals, all vulgar temptations should be held back. You just need to remember that the purpose of entering the Blood Shadow Sect is to check who killed the woman who died in Xiyutang thirty years ago and why did she kill her in the beginning."
"Okay, okay." The players said perfunctorily.
They thought they had already received the task and were still listening to your NPC nagging here, which was already very proud. As a result, you didn't give money and wanted to have sex with us for free? And they said it was so fresh and refined?
"As soon as there is information, remember to pass it to me according to the signal we agreed upon! Even if I am not here, I will ask someone to come and contact me."
"Well, then we're leaving." Several players turned around, waved their hands, and left in a daze.
For them, completing tasks is the only way to do it. The real purpose of entering the Blood Shadow Sect is definitely to learn more skills and receive rewards from the master.
Suddenly, a team of people quietly walked out from the secret rudder of Xiyutang, leading an old man.
Su Honghao, who was hiding in the dark, had his eyes lit up and he quickly followed him.
The group left the city and came to a wilderness. They immediately hid, as if they were ambushing someone.
Su Honghao pretended to be a passing herb collector, wearing a worn-out clothes, and Shi Shi walked past it.
The people in Xiyutang didn't care. After all, in their eyes, it was clear that Su Honghao was a mortal.
Will their group of monks care about a mortal?
Su Honghao deliberately stayed within their perception range, pretending not to know their existence, and was picking the medicine seriously. While picking it, he muttered in his mouth: "Cockroach medicine, ant medicine, rat poison, stinky feet nemesis..."
Because his whispering sound originated from his previous life, the people in Xiyutang thought he was just humming some local dialect.
At this time.
A fragrant carriage came from a distance, and you can tell that there was a woman sitting in it, just by looking at the style.
The people in Xiyutang mentioned the spirit.
Obviously, this chariot was their target.
Su Honghao glanced at the chariot from a distance, then ignored it and continued to collect herbs, as if he didn't know anything.
Sudden.
The chariot stopped.
The guards around the chariot pulled out their weapons and guarded them strictly around the chariot. The leader shouted: "Who is the little girl? You haven't come out yet?"
The man from Xiyutang covered his face and jumped out of his hiding place.
Su Honghao pretended to be frightened and ran around in fear.
Seeing this, a person from Xiyutang shot out a hidden weapon, hitting Su Honghao's back.
Su Honghao cursed her mother and thought that she was the devil's sect who was acting, and then fell down, but she did not die, but was injured.
He lay on the ground, pretending to be dead, but he peeked at the situation over there as if nothing had happened. Although there was a hidden weapon on his back, it did not hurt at all, and it did not even affect his actions.
After the annoying guy was cleaned up, the old man led by Xiyutang said, "I opened this road and I planted this tree. If you want to pass by it from now on, you can stay and buy wealth!"
The guard leader said disdainfully: "Stop pretending, can't we see that you are not bandits? Tell me, who are you, dare to stop us? Do you know our identities?"
Seeing this, the old man stopped pretending and sneered: "Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe
Su Honghao, who was standing beside him, was shocked.
What's going on?
Blood Shadow Sect deals with Blood Shadow Sect?
Infighting?
But the old man did not indicate his identity. Obviously, this is not just an infighting!
The guard leader suppressed his anger, looked around and said coldly: "Okay, it seems that you are here prepared! I think you not only know that we are from the Blood Shadow Sect, but also our status within the Blood Shadow Sect, right?"
"That's right." The old man confessed, "Seeing that you are so calm, you are a hero. Do you have any last words?"
"The last words? Maybe who should say them!"
The escort leader immediately said to his subordinates: "Take the lady away, my palace behind me! This is an order, and you must ensure the safety of the lady!"
"Yes!" The guards did not pretentiously and agreed.
"Want to leave?" the old man sneered, "No way! Do you know why I want you to say so much nonsense? When we were talking to you, our people had already quietly set up a trap here, and you could not escape!"
The reason why they did not set up the formation from the beginning was that they were worried that the other party had not stepped into the range of the magic array, so they realized in advance that the trap had become a formation, and they were sure that their goal was to be able to escape!
really.
As soon as these words fell, the guard leader looked solemn.
At this time, a nice female voice came from the chariot: "I want to be embarrassed if I am just trapped in the formation? Ah Da, teach me a good lesson!"
The escort leader's expression suddenly calmed down.
