Rebellious Contract Beast

"Xuan Li, the Zhu family's Patriarch's birthday is in three days. What should I give him then?"

"He's neither your father nor your mother, why are you worrying so much about it?"

"You have so many ideas. I really don't know what to give."

"If it were me, I'd just give him fifty thousand taels of silver."

"..." In the pavilion at the backyard of Mingyan Courtyard, He Jianchuyun's hand holding the white chess piece paused in mid-air, and he couldn't help rolling his eyes when he looked at Shen Yi opposite him.

Give 50,000 taels of silver?

She had seen perfunctory treatments, but she had never seen one as perfunctory as this.

But he was right. If it weren't for her aunt, Zhu Jianqing would be a stranger to her. Why should she care so much about his birthday?

But the problem is that because of the existence of my aunt, she lives in the Zhu family mansion, and she should show some respect to the owner of this place.

Giving 50,000 taels of silver on the birthday of the head of the Zhu family is such a big event. It is too frivolous and rude.

Shen Yi may say whatever he wants, but He Jian Chu Yun’s suggestion cannot be accepted. The gift cannot be said to be very expensive, but it should at least be a little different, right?

But she really didn't know what to give.

At that moment, Shen Yi felt something strange in his paw. He hurriedly threw a black chess piece onto the chessboard, then looked down at his forearm.

"What's wrong?" He Jianchuyun asked when he saw this, and at the same time placed his white chess piece and secretly moved a black chess piece one square to the right.

"It seems like someone has sent a message." Shen Yi replied, and then he opened a piece of scale armor on his forearm and took out a black folded talisman paper from it.

One side of the talisman paper was originally blank, but after it was opened, a series of vertically arranged words appeared out of thin air on it.

This black talisman paper is called a communication talisman. As the name suggests, it is used for long-distance communication. There are a son talisman and a mother talisman. The one in Shen Yi's hand is the son talisman, and the mother talisman is in Mingyue's hand.

Although it is now using Tang Wanyu's name, as the head of the North Hall of the Pillow Knife Society, she cannot talk to Shen Yi anytime and anywhere. Every time it sends someone or comes in person to leak the internal information of the Pillow Knife Society, there is a risk of being discovered.

Just in case, Shen Yi gave it the mother talisman of the message talisman. If there was something important to say, he would write the words on the mother talisman. When the mother talisman was used, the sub-talisman on Shen Yi's side would show the contents written on the mother talisman.

It is very useful, but it also has its disadvantages. The message talisman is a disposable item and will disappear after use. Also, the words displayed on the sub-talisman are reversed, making them difficult to read.

It took Shen Yi half a minute to understand the contents of the message talisman. He looked at He Jianchuyun and couldn't help but smile.

"Hehe~"

"Is it Mingyue? What did she write on the message talisman?"

"Look for yourself." Shen Yi handed her the message talisman.

When He Jian Chu Yun took it and looked at it, his brows soon frowned.

The above content is exactly the information that the Pillow Blade Society is planning to kill Wu Han and put the blame on the Tiger Gang.

"Why are you laughing? Isn't this good news?"

"I'm not laughing, I'm happy!"

"Uh...why are you happy?"

"Aren't you worried about what gift to give Zhu Jianqing? Look, someone has sent you a suitable gift."

"Ah?" He Jianchuyun still didn't understand, but Shen Yi waved his claws and a box appeared on the table out of thin air. He said mysteriously, "Open it and take a look."

"What's inside?"

"See for yourself."

With a half-believing and half-doubting attitude, He Jian Chuyun opened the box that Shen Yi pushed over, and the things inside left her speechless.

"Uh, okay." She closed the box and returned it to Shen Yi. Now she was completely convinced. She was very curious about what was going on in Shen Yi's brain. He could actually come up with this weird idea of ​​"bonds", forcing the Xu family to not dare to touch the Luoxiangzui Winery and could only put it aside to dry.

The act of killing Wu Han was a desperate move by Xu Sihai.

The contracted beast had a good brain, which made her feel a little distressed, but she soon felt relieved.

Anyway, this contracted beast is the boss, so it’s not a bad thing for him to have a good brain…

"Come on, come on, keep going down. Where are you going?"

"I just finished it, now it's your turn."

"Yeah." Shen Yi nodded, his eyes on the chessboard, but then his eyes lit up and he pressed the black chess piece down directly.

"Alright! I win!"

"What do you mean you won!"

"Why didn't I win? Look carefully, I already have five seeds!"

"..." He Jianchuyun took a closer look and was speechless on the spot. She had just secretly moved a black chess piece without looking carefully, but when she looked again, she saw that the black chess piece that should have been in the "live three" was moved behind a series of "dead three", becoming a "dead four". If Shen Yi played another chess piece, it would be five pieces in a row.

"No, what's wrong with you, old witch? Didn't you look carefully at these four big black pieces?"

"..."

"That's not right. If these four were not blocked, I would have seen them... Could it be that you, the old witch, did something?"

"Alright, alright, I lost, okay? Let's go again! This time, I'll go first."

"Go ahead."

"Oh, by the way, what did you mean by that just now?"

"Which sentence?"

"That's what you said just now, that someone has sent a suitable gift."

"Oh, this."

"Have you decided what gift to give to Zhu Jianqing?"

"Of course I have. I want to give him a very special gift!"

"What gift?"

"Helping the Zhu family overcome a crisis, isn't this a great gift? Isn't this special?"

"..." He Jianchuyun said nothing and silently placed a white chess piece on the chessboard. Before, Shen Yi said he would use 50,000 taels of silver to appease Zhu Jianqing, but now he doesn't have to give a cent and just gets a free banquet.

……

Early in the morning, just after daybreak, because Mingyue said that the Zhendao Society would take action today, Shen Yi went to the Shen Mansion early to arrange things. Most importantly, he handed the "treasure" in the box to Qu Xiangui.

He bought this at a huge price, just to cheat the Xu family.

He was worried that he couldn't find an opportunity, but Xu Sihai made a stupid move and wanted to kill Wu Han and put the blame on the Tiger Gang.

Logically speaking, given Xu Sihai's cautiousness, he should not have chosen to take this step, but he still went.

But if you think about it carefully, there seems to be nothing wrong with it. Although this step seems extremely dangerous on the surface, once it is done, it will be harder than climbing to the sky for the Tiger Gang to turn the tables. The same goes for the Zhu family. The Wu family cannot directly wipe out the whole family, but they will have to pay an extremely painful price before this matter can be barely let go.

How much is the cost?
This is hard to say.

In short, it is definitely not small.

After arranging things, Qu Xiangui went down to do it immediately.

As expected, in the main hall of the Pillow Knife Society, Deng Quanchang had prepared a big show. Wu Han, who lived in the Wangxiating Inn, had long been invited over by the people of the Pillow Knife Society. It was said that Deng Quanchang had also specially prepared a large number of special-effect elixirs for making that kind of medicine. The effect was simply outrageous. It was no exaggeration to say that after taking it, people could fight for three hours and still be strong.

At the same time, the spies planted by the Tiger Gang in the Pillow Knife Society also began to act. Half an hour after Wu Han entered Zuimeng Garden, the bodies of young girls were continuously carried out from the back door by the Pillow Knife Society's people.

There were even spies who reported that a carriage could carry more than a dozen corpses. These corpses were generally dealt with in two ways. The first was that if the corpse was relatively intact, it would be sent to a small restaurant somewhere in the city to be used as a "sleeping beauty" for guests with special fetishes to play with. If the corpse was tortured beyond recognition and incomplete, it would be directly taken to a mass grave outside the city and thrown away.

After learning the news, Shen Yi had a gloomy face the whole time. Although Wu Han looks gentle and polite on the surface, he is indeed a psychopath!
Shen Yi would have thought about saving those poor women, but there is a saying that goes, you can never wake up a person pretending to be asleep, let alone a group of people?
Almost every young woman who chooses to enter Zuimeng Garden is full of expectations for the future, dreaming of being noticed by big shots and turning from a black chicken into a phoenix one day. However, they don’t know that what is really waiting for them is a huge mouth of the abyss that can chew their bones into powder.

Previously, Shen Yi had asked the Tiger Gang to plant a spy in the Pillow Knife Society to persuade one of the women and told her the whole truth. However, the woman did not believe it at all and immediately reported the spy to the people in the Pillow Knife Society. When the people from the Tiger Gang found the spy, his body had been hung on a street south of the east city.

From then on, Shen Yi was too lazy to care about it. It was not easy to plant spies in the Pillow Blade Society. It was time-consuming and laborious. Those women could do whatever they wanted. It was none of his business anyway.

This is how the world is. Many women would rather be the lowest maids for the nobles than marry ordinary people as their wives, resulting in many lower-class men being left without wives and children, and dying alone in old age. But this is still considered good. The worst are those women who have no say in their natal family, or simply have no right to speak. Once they enter the high walls and red gates, they completely become appendages of others, and are treated as cheap commodities to be resold and traded at will, or even cooked alive.

Wu Han is like this. He likes to eat up the person he is having fun with when he is having sex.

Because of his influence, the several samurai servants who came with him also had the same perverted hobbies.

Originally Shen Yi thought that killing people would not be enough, so how else could he kill Wu Han?

Isn't it just one cut and it's done?
But now Shen Yi not only wants to give Wu Han a death that suits him, he also wants to shatter this old bastard's innocence after his death!
It would be best if the people of Jiangzhou City knew about this.

"how is it now?"

"Boss, the scout reported that the Wu Han man has been sent back to Wangxia Court by the Zhendao Society. Some of his men said that he seemed to be a little confused and had to be supported all the way back."

"Well, what's the situation at Beitang?"

"The undercover agents planted by the Pillow Blade Society in my gang have all left for some reason. I think they have returned to Beitang."

"It looks like everything is almost done. Have we prepared everything we need?"

"Don't worry, boss. We are ready and can start anytime!"

"That's good. Send someone over to keep an eye on them. Wait for the Pillow Blade Society to make the first move, and then have Zhang Xiaoyong seize the opportunity to intervene."

"Yes."

"There is one more thing. We can't let Wu Han die too easily. Send someone outside to buy some..."

"Boss, will this cause too much trouble? Wu Han is also a member of the Wu family. If they..."

"Don't worry, the Xu family will take the blame anyway, what does it have to do with us?"

"Yes...Yes, Boss, I'll do it right away."

"Go."

……

In a small courtyard in the south of Jiangzhou City, a man wearing the uniform of the Tiger Gang blew his nose vigorously. The weather has been getting hotter recently, so he hardly covered himself with a blanket when sleeping at night. As a result, he accidentally caught a cold. Now he just feels his nose is blocked. He doesn't know if it's because he used wrong force, but the snot he blew didn't fall to the ground, but instead fell on his clothes.

He wiped it with his hand in disgust, then ignored it, turned his head and looked at another person not far away, and asked: "Hey! Brother!"

The person he called raised his head and looked at him puzzledly, with an expression in his eyes as if asking: "Are you calling me?"

"Yes! It's you!"

"What are you calling me for?"

"Where on earth are you from? Why haven't I seen you before?"

"I am the head of Beitang. I used to work in Anxiang Pavilion. It's normal that you haven't seen me."

"Is there a person like you in the Anxiang Pavilion?"

"If you don't believe me, you can go back and ask the master in person, but we're about to start work, and we can't wait for you."

"Forget it. I just asked casually because you look unfamiliar to me. After all, this matter should not be taken lightly. It's not wrong to be careful. Don't take it to heart, brother."

The people in the courtyard were not disciples of the Tiger Gang at all, but members of the Zhendao Society who were disguised as disciples of the Tiger Gang. As for the man who claimed to be working in the Anxiang Pavilion before, not only did he not know him, but most people around him did not know him either. They only knew that his name was "Hu Tieqiang".

What’s annoying is that this unfamiliar guy was actually arranged by Beitang’s boss to be the leader.

Facing the inquiring eyes of the people around him, Hu Tieqiang did not panic, but just said calmly: "This brother is right, this matter is indeed not to be trifled with, so when we start, you all have to be alert, if you mess up, you will go back with your head! But the boss also said that after this matter is done, the gang will give each of us 1,000 taels of silver, and then we will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of our lives. Find a place to buy a piece of good land, marry a wife and have a son, what do you think?"

"it is good!!"

"One thousand taels of silver, I can't spend it all in my lifetime!"

"If you want this money, work hard for me! Do you hear me?"

"heard it!"

"Okay, it's almost time, we should go out to work!"

"Walk!!"

Seeing that everyone's emotions had been aroused by him, Hu Tieqiang stood up directly, called for a hundred responses, and led a large group of people to rush towards Wangxia Courtyard, which was less than a hundred steps away.
