Gou's Liver Experience in the World of Demons and Demons
Chapter 574 Make a Deal
Seeing people rushing out from all around, Shopkeeper Wang panicked. His face instantly fell and he looked at Lanhua with an unfriendly look.
"Manager Lan, you need to know who is backing me. If you dare to touch me, you might die without knowing how you died. I advise you not to cause trouble for yourself!"
Hearing his forced words, Lanhua sneered.
"Isn't the person behind you Mr. Luo? Everyone in Pingcheng knows that you have offended Mr. Luo because of a purple jade dagger? And you still want him to be your backer. Aren't you afraid of dying in his hands?"
As soon as Lanhua said this, Shopkeeper Wang's face suddenly changed.
"What do you mean? What is the purpose of calling me here today?"
"I don't have any purpose. I just want to talk to you. It's a pity that Shopkeeper Wang is a little ignorant and actually set his sights on me. I called these people here just to make you restrain yourself. If Shopkeeper Wang is willing, why don't we talk inside the house?"
Seeing that Lanhua softened her attitude, Manager Wang's expression looked better.
"Okay, since Shopkeeper Lan sincerely invites you, I will give you this honor."
After saying that, he walked in with a cold face.
Lanhua followed closely behind him, and when she saw him come in, she locked the door.
The moment the candlelight came on, Gu Sheng and others walked out from the darkness.
Seeing that there were so many people in the room, Manager Wang's expression changed suddenly.
"Manager Lan, what do you mean by this?"
"We are not happy about it, but my patron wants to talk to you. Please take a seat, Shopkeeper Wang."
Lan Yao and Er Gou were already standing at the door. Shopkeeper Wang knew he couldn't leave, so he could only hold his anger and sit down.
Gu Sheng sat opposite him and looked up at him twice.
"Manager Wang, if I'm not mistaken, you haven't found a gem suitable for the purple jade dagger yet, right?"
When Manager Wang heard him mention the purple jade dagger, his pupils shrank instantly.
"Who are you? I've never seen you in Pingcheng. How do you know all this? You have to know that Pingcheng is where the Luo family has the final say. If you know this news, you are undoubtedly seeking a dead end for yourself!"
Hearing his words, Gu Sheng smiled softly.
"Really? I don't think so. I think I found a way for you to survive. After all, if I didn't take action, Luo Qin would have killed you, and you were also preparing to escape, weren't you?"
Hearing him speak out his true thoughts word by word, Shopkeeper Wang felt that the person in front of him was particularly terrifying.
"Who are you? Why do you know so much? Have you been spying on me?"
"You are not worthy of my surveillance, but as I said just now, if you are willing to cooperate, I can give you a way out, and I can guarantee that Luo Qin will not find you, and let you continue to live your good life in another place. Do you want to cooperate?"
Gu Sheng extended an olive branch, and Shopkeeper Wang was wildly attracted.
He couldn't find the gem because everyone who could use it had bought it. Now he had run out of tricks, but Luo Qin was still pressing him. He was helpless and decided to run away.
Originally he was still thinking that it would be great if he had someone to back him up, so that at least his chances of survival would be greater. Unexpectedly, Gu Sheng actually came to him on his own initiative.
Although he couldn't be sure whether he was an enemy or a friend, his proposal was too tempting. After all, it involved his life.
After thinking it over, he asked, "What do you want to do? What do you need me to do?"
Seeing that he had taken the bait, Gu Sheng gently curled his lips.
"I want you to hand over the purple jade dagger to me, and then I will save your life."
Hearing this, Shopkeeper Wang's eyes lit up.
"It's that simple?"
"Yes, it's that simple. If you want to live, give me the purple jade dagger. And by the way, hold Luo Qin back so that he won't be able to produce anything on the day of the recruitment meeting."
After Gu Sheng finished speaking, Shopkeeper Wang frowned.
"You want me to hold him back, but I may not be able to do it. I will leave after handing over the purple jade dagger. If I continue to have contact with him, won't I be exposed?"
"Without your purple jade dagger, it has no value to him. If you leave, he will definitely find someone else to make it. You craftsmen must have your own circles. Do you need to show up in person if you want to hold him back?"
After realizing what he meant, Shopkeeper Wang started to think about it again.
Seeing his eyes darting around, Gu Sheng had already guessed what he was thinking.
He took out his purse and slammed it directly on the table.
"I'll cover all the expenses, you just need to do the work."
When he heard the loud thud, Shopkeeper Wang's eyes lit up.
"Okay! Since you are Shopkeeper Lan's backer, I will trust you this time!"
As he said this, he prepared to grab the purse.
Seeing his action, Gu Sheng stepped back. Shopkeeper Wang's hand grabbed nothing and he frowned immediately.
"What do you mean?"
"Nothing interesting, I just have a few questions."
"You ask."
"Is the Qingcheng Sect in Luo Qin's hands? How many troops do they have? Where are they stationed? I want to know everything about this."
When Manager Wang heard him asking about the Qingcheng Sect, he was a little troubled.
Seeing his hesitant look, Gu Sheng tapped the table with his knuckles.
"Don't forget, he is the one who wants your life now, and I am the one who will save your life."
After Gu Sheng's reminder, Shopkeeper Wang gritted his teeth and said, "As far as I know, King Luo has completely handed over Qingcheng Sect to Luo Qin and has given him strong support. It is said that there is a mysterious force at their disposal. They are stationed in the south of the city. The most luxurious house over there is theirs. There are probably thousands of people, most of whom are trained by King Luo, and the rest are Luo Qin's people. But I heard that Luo Qin's people are not as strong as King Luo's, so they recruit soldiers and horses, mainly to train a few capable generals."
During the conversation, Shopkeeper Wang also told the story about Ms. Shengya.
However, he knew that Shengya Jushi was the force supporting Luo Qin, but he didn't know who was behind the scenes.
He didn't know, but Gu Shengke knew it very well. After hearing every word he said, he nodded thoughtfully.
Just as he was about to speak, Shopkeeper Wang added, "It is said that there is another team under the name of Qingcheng Sect. They are extremely powerful and can take over the martial arts world. Moreover, they can only be used by the Luo family. Anyone else who touches them will die. It is said that they are stationed on the same mountain and rarely show up. If they show up, they will hurt people. Do you know the evil demon? It is said that he came from a mysterious team, and he is not even ranked among the top few there."
Upon hearing the news unexpectedly, everyone's expressions became extremely cautious.
The evil demons coming in and out of the martial arts world have already caused quite a stir. If it is true as Shopkeeper Wang said, there are many people behind Luo Qin who are more powerful than the evil demons, the consequences will be unimaginable!
"Who told you all this?"
"Luo Qin's people said that he often ordered things from me and would send his men to pick them up. Sometimes they would have to wait a little longer, so they would drink tea and chat in my yard. These were all said during their chats."
Upon learning that the origin of these things came from Luo Qin's men, Gu Sheng frowned.
Seeing him like this, Shopkeeper Wang became a little nervous.
"What's wrong? Are you afraid that you can't beat him and protect me?"
"That's not the case. I think it's quite easy to protect you, but I didn't expect him to be so powerful. It's not easy to eradicate him completely." After Gu Sheng finished speaking, Shopkeeper Wang's eyes widened.
"You want to eradicate him, but you are dreaming. Don't forget, he is the son of King Luo! King Luo is the only one in the court, and his sphere of influence is so large that we can't even imagine it. If you want to deal with him, isn't it like trying to stop a chariot with a mantis arm?"
Knowing that these things were beyond his understanding, Gu Sheng did not say anything more, but changed the subject and said: "Send the purple jade dagger to me at this time tomorrow, and I will send someone to take you away."
When he heard about his life, Shopkeeper Wang nodded repeatedly.
Looking at him, Gu Sheng said, "Remember to contact the people in your circle after you leave. Don't let Luo Qin get anything before the recruitment meeting. Otherwise, I know your whereabouts and it will be easy for me to take your life."
"I know. Since I promised you, I won't go back on my word. These things are not difficult for me, because some people here have been oppressed by Luo Qin and have long wanted to take action. I can let them do this."
At this point, Shopkeeper Wang's eyes moved around his hands.
"To do these things, you need not only connections, but also a lot of money. You see..."
After he reminded him, Gu Sheng remembered that he had not given him the silver yet. No wonder he had been staring at him with a sly look.
Pushing the purse out, Gu Sheng emphasized the matter to him again.
After receiving the silver, Shopkeeper Wang nodded repeatedly.
After confirming it again and again, Gu Sheng let him go.
Lanhua's people followed him all the time, and only after they made sure that he had not contacted anyone during the period and had just returned home stealthily did her people return.
After receiving the news, Gu Sheng said softly: "Manager Wang is not a coward, this matter is likely to be no problem, Hongmei, disguise him tomorrow, and then let Baiyu send him away."
"Gu Sheng, where do you want Bai Yu to send him? There should be Luo Qin's people watching him there. Are you sure you can send him away safely?"
When asking this question, Hongmei's tone was filled with worry.
"Don't worry, since I can use him, I can ensure his safety. Baiyu, you and Shilou will take the people to the west of the city tomorrow, and then summon my small tripod to cover you. In this way, no one can detect your breath. You take this opportunity to leave and send him directly to the vicinity of Shitou Village. Shilou, go talk to the third elder. There are people from our Tiancang Sect there who can ensure his safety."
Understanding what this meant, Bai Yu gave a thumbs up.
"Gu Sheng, your brain works really fast. You have arranged everything so quickly, and it is so perfect. If I had your brain, our sect would have made a breakthrough long ago."
After he finished speaking, before Gu Sheng could say anything, Shi Lou raised his head proudly.
"That's right. If it weren't for Brother Sheng, do you think our Stone Village would have come this far? This is all thanks to Brother Sheng! As long as we are here, no one can take Brother Sheng away from us!"
Seeing him like this, Bai Yu smiled and patted him.
"I'm just talking. How can I compete with you? Besides, Gu Sheng is determined. Even if I try, I can't get it! You cooperate well tomorrow. We can go early and come back early."
"Don't worry, I will definitely complete the tasks Brother Sheng assigns to me perfectly. I never hold Brother Sheng back."
After they chatted for a while, Gu Sheng said, "It's getting late, let's all go to rest."
Everyone stood up and walked out while talking.
Seeing that Lanhua didn't move, Hongmei called her, "Lanhua, let's go."
Hearing her words, Lanhua pinched her handkerchief and said, "Hongmei, you guys go first. I have something to say to Gu Sheng."
For a moment, Hongmei's expression changed a little, and then she slowed down.
"Then I'll accompany you."
After she finished speaking, Lanhua waved her hands repeatedly.
"No, no, I can talk to him, you go and rest first."
This time, Hongmei's expression was a little out of control.
Originally everyone was talking and laughing, but now they all fell silent, and for a moment they didn't know whether they should leave.
Gu Sheng was also somewhat helpless and asked Lanhua: "Is there anything you need to talk about privately?"
"Yes, I want to talk to you."
"About what?"
Seeing that everyone had not left yet, Lanhua looked a little embarrassed.
Gu Sheng said softly: "No need to be shy, they are all my people, they know everything about me."
After hearing what he said, Lanhua could only say softly: "I want to ask you about the Tiancang Sect. I heard you talking just now."
Upon learning that she stayed for this matter, Gu Sheng smiled and waved to Hongmei.
"You asked the wrong person about this. You should ask Hongmei."
Hearing this, Lanhua was a little surprised.
Gu Sheng didn't look at her, but asked Hongmei to sit next to him.
"She should know everything you want to know. The others can go and rest first. Hongmei can stay here."
Seeing that Gu Sheng had found a solution, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and dispersed.
The three of them stayed in the room, and Lanhua's eyes kept moving between the two of them.
After holding it in for a long time, she finally asked, "Are you...a romantic relationship?"
When she asked this question, Hongmei blushed unconsciously.
"no."
She and Gu Sheng had never confirmed their relationship, so how could they be called lovers?
When Hongmei looked up at Gu Sheng, Lanhua secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Sheng just pinched his eyebrows and said nothing.
"Hongmei, are you also from the Tiancang Sect? Aren't you from the Mirror Sect?"
After thinking for a while, Hongmei said, "I am indeed from the Mirror Sect, but the Mirror Sect is affiliated with the Tiancang Sect."
Upon learning this, Lanhua was even more surprised.
"No wonder you dared to confront King Luo right away. It turns out that your identities are far more complicated than I thought. Hongmei, have you seen Master Wushuang?"
"I have seen you. I am the disciple of Master Wushuang."
When Lanhua suddenly learned Hongmei's true identity, she was stunned.
"What about Gu Sheng? Are you also a disciple of Master Wushuang?"
"I'm not."
"So you are not the one, Hongmei is..."
I didn't expect Hongmei to have such a high status. Lanhua didn't say this, but she felt a little complicated. (End of this chapter)
