Chapter 66 What if I don’t agree?
When Shen Qing entered the room, the first thing that caught his eye was a gray brick floor.
The brick surface is somewhat worn and has some bumps and twists, obviously due to age.

In addition, there are some simple wooden furniture in the house. Although not luxurious, each piece reveals an ancient charm.

It seemed out of place in the room, as if it had been pieced together by someone.

Shen Qing retracted his gaze, took two steps forward and looked up.

Zhao Ba was sitting on a tall wooden chair, with a glowing wolf skin covering the back of the chair. He looked at him with a half-smile, giving him a sense of oppression that only comes from a superior.

Xiao Zhi, who was following behind him, felt like a rabbit that had strayed into a tiger's den, and a feeling of uneasiness and anxiety arose in his heart.

He took a deep breath and tried to look calm.

But his posture was still captured by someone and made people laugh.

Zhao Ba's gaze swept across the people behind Shen Qing one by one, his eyes deep and sharp.

Seeing that Shen Qing came with more than one person, his eyebrows twisted together.

Clearly he only sent someone to call Shen Qing, so how come so many people came all of a sudden?

Wouldn't this let many people know about it? What's the point of planting spies?

He is just a small hunter. Does he really need to be won over?

"These two are useless. It's hard to even invite anyone."

Zhao Ba was dissatisfied, but fortunately he had seen a lot of things and quickly adjusted himself. He said in a loud and powerful voice, "Are you Shen Qing?"

Shen Qing quickly stepped forward, clasped his fists and said, "Master Ba, it's me. I wonder what you want from me?"

Just at that moment, he, who had a photographic memory, caught a glimpse of Zhao Ba's emotions when he saw Xiao Zhi and others.

Shen Qing knew that he made the right move by bringing more people with him.

At least at the beginning, his momentum was much stronger than his alone, and it also disrupted the opponent's original plan, allowing him to take the initiative.

Zhao Ba motioned Shen Qing to sit down.

Shen Qing looked at the high chair covered with wolfskin, and without any refusal or politeness, he carefully sat down on a wooden chair next to it.

Xiao Zhi, Ouyang Tieniu and others followed closely behind him.

At this time Ouyang Tieniu found that the atmosphere here was a little strange.

He thought that Zhao Ba just wanted to ask Shen Qing a question or blackmail him.

Now it seems to be more troublesome than he thought.

There are so many people, it’s hard to run away.

When he got behind Shen Qing, he lowered his voice in Shen Qing's ear and said heavily: "I was cheated by you, I have to pay more!"

Shen Qing glared at Ouyang Tieniu, secretly scolded him for being nosy and told him to shut up.

Ouyang Tieniu turned a blind eye, looking around and planning his escape route in case of a conflict.

Zhao Ba picked up a cup of tea, blew on it gently, and then drank it slowly.

He put down the teacup and looked at Shen Qing again: "I heard that you are a hunter from Hongshan Village and you are now practicing martial arts in Linfeng Hall. I specially invited you here today because I want you to do me a favor."

Shen Qing's heart tightened, knowing that the topic was about to get to the point.

His heart was already in turmoil, but he remained calm as he said, "Master Ba, please tell me. As long as I can do it, I will do my best."

Zhao Ba asked, "Have you heard about the Mi Gang and Linfeng Hall?"

Shen Qing said without hesitation: "I have heard a little bit about it, but I am not very clear about the details. I don't know much." "You don't need to know too much. You just need to know that the Mi Gang and Li Linfeng are not on good terms, and the Mi Gang is very strong." Zhao Ba said: "In recent days, Li Linfeng's eldest disciple and fourth disciple were injured by the Mi Gang, and Li Linfeng only cared about his head and not his butt. To be honest, in my opinion, Linfeng Hall will not last much longer."

"So, what does this have to do with why you, Mr. Ba, asked me to come here this time?" Shen Qing vaguely guessed the purpose of Zhao Ba's visit to him, but he still pretended to be confused and continued to test him.

Zhao Ba said in a condescending and almsgiving tone: "Although my place is not big, it is also somewhat related to the Mi Gang. I can give you the prescriptions, martial arts, and training methods that Linfeng Hall can give you. All you have to do is do me a small favor."

"Oh, no, it's you." Zhao Ba's eyes flashed with a cunning look, and he continued, "It just so happens that there are two vacant manager positions in Yihefang in the west of the city. As long as you agree, I might as well give these two positions to you."

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Tieniu, who was standing behind Shen Qing, became a little excited. He poked Shen Qing on the back and said enviously in a low voice, "Hurry up and agree to him. Two manager positions, earning fifty or sixty taels a year is not a problem. This means that Ba Ye thinks highly of you."

Shen Qing remained unmoved.

On the contrary, when he heard this, he was immediately startled.

Since such an attractive condition was offered, what Zhao Ba asked him to do must be of great importance.

Shen Qing pondered for a while, brewing his words and said: "Master Ba, tell me, what exactly do you want us to do? I am just an ordinary little hunter, I am afraid I may not be able to take on such an important task."

Zhao Ba stood up, walked down from the high chair to the center of the hall, looked directly at Shen Qing and the others and said, "What I want you to do is very simple. You just need to tell me everything that happened in Linfeng Hall, and keep a close eye on Li Linfeng. When you have a chance later, you can ask him out or add some ingredients to his food. See, it's very simple, right?"

Simple?
Simple your mother!

Shen Qing is not a fool, and neither is Li Linfeng.

If he showed any signs of doing these things, Li Linfeng would kill him first.

At the same time, it also indirectly shows that Linfengtang is indeed in danger.

Shen Qing took a deep breath of the cold air, but his heart was surging.

Zhao Ba stared at Shen Qing and others with a relaxed and comfortable look on his face.

If he remembered correctly, Shen Qing had been in Linfeng Hall for less than a month and was just a rookie who had just stepped into the martial arts world.

A small hunter like Shen Qing, who emerged from a remote corner, had no choice but to let him control him.

Just when Zhao Ba was sure of victory, Shen Qing, who was standing opposite him, suddenly stood up and looked at him.

After a while, the little hunter said in a strong voice: "What if I don't agree?"

Shen Qing's words were like a thunderclap, exploding in this small hall.

Refuse!

He actually refused!

Zhao Ba's smile froze on his face, and he became furious: "What did you say?"

"I say, what if I don't agree?" Shen Qing repeated, his voice clearly reaching the ears of everyone present.

Ouyang Tieniu, who was standing behind Shen Qing, said anxiously, "Stop talking, Ba Ye will beat you to death."

Shen Qing was not moved at all.

Ouyang Tieniu's face was extremely ugly: "Crazy, crazy!"

"Okay, okay." Zhao Bashi laughed angrily, "Then don't blame me for not accepting your toast and drinking the penalty wine."

At this moment, Shen Qing shouted outside the house: "Uncle, do it!"

As soon as the words fell, an arrow came flying through the wind and headed straight for Zhao Ba's back.

Zhao Ba was shocked.
