Chapter 57 Xuan Qingzi Sends People

Jianghu people?
After hearing these three words, Shen Bai frowned slightly.

Normally, he wouldn't think it was a big deal if a gangster came to him, but now is a special time, and if a gangster suddenly comes to the pawnshop, there will be a lot of twists and turns involved.

And looking at Qin Shuang's expression, it seems a little abnormal.

Thinking of this, Shen Bai temporarily stopped thinking about Gan Haoyu's evil body.

Under the guidance of Qin Shuang, they walked into the pawnshop.

At this moment, the pawnshop was empty. There was only a man dressed in ordinary clothes, which was very consistent with the style of a gangster. He was standing in front of the pawnshop counter, looking around.

The man had an ordinary appearance, with a long sword on his waist. He held the hilt with his hand, never letting go for a moment.

When he saw Shen Bai coming, the look of this man from the martial arts world immediately changed, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.

When Shen Bai saw this look, he felt something was wrong.

Even if you're here to be a thing, you shouldn't look at me like that.

"Are you the owner of this pawnshop?" The man from Jianghu spoke in a very arrogant tone, raised his head, and looked at Shen Bai with a sidelong glance.

Shen Bai frowned, nodded and said, "Yes, it's me. Do you want to be a pawnshop owner, or do you have something else to do?"

The man chuckled, then pulled out a piece of jade the size of a pigeon egg from his arms and placed it on the counter. "Can you help me figure out how much this thing is worth?"

Shen Bai walked forward, took the jade in his hand and examined it carefully, then said, "Five taels of silver."

The jade is good jade, not a weird thing, but it is transparent and does not have many impurities. Five taels of silver is a reasonable price.

After hearing this, the Jianghu people laughed and said, "Ten taels of silver, can you do it?"

Shen Bai shook his head: "I can't."

He pushed the jade along the counter to the edge and said, "Take it somewhere else. I can't do it here."

Although this jade is good, it is indeed not worth ten taels of silver, and there is no reason to lose money by opening a store here.

After hearing this, the man from Jianghu raised his hand and took the jade in his hand.

All this is normal. If something cannot be pawned, let him take it away and look for something else.

Although there is only one pawnshop in Shengyun County, doing business is a mutual agreement.

But when the man got the jade in his hand, his hand suddenly loosened, and the pigeon egg-sized jade fell to the ground with a bang and broke into pieces.

The sound of the falling was particularly harsh in this pawnshop.

When the jade fell to the ground, the man suddenly drew the long sword from his waist.

"You are such a pawnshop owner! You actually broke my jade. If you don't come up with a reason today, you won't be able to leave."

Shen Bai narrowed his eyes: "Ten taels of silver, right? Take these ten taels of silver."

As he spoke, he took out ten taels of silver from the drawer beside him and placed it on the counter.

The people in the martial arts world were slightly stunned when they saw this. They obviously didn't expect Shen Bai to be so straightforward.

Looking at the ten taels of silver on the counter, the man from Jianghu subconsciously picked it up.

After he came to his senses, he seemed to remember something and threw the ten taels of silver back onto the counter.

"It was worth ten taels before it was broken, but it's not ten taels anymore after it's broken. This is my family heirloom, so I have to compensate you with at least one hundred or eighty taels."

Qin Shuang, seeing this, walked forward.

"You broke this thing yourself, why are you blaming us, the pawnshop?"

The man from Jianghu laughed and said, "You two both said that I broke it myself, but what I saw was that it was you who broke it. What? Do you want to bully the minority with your numbers?" As he said that, the man from Jianghu drew the long sword from his waist.

Shen Bai sighed, turned around and said, "Qin Shuang."

Qin Shuang responded.

Shen Bai pointed to the door and said, "Close the door."

Qin Shuang nodded, walked to the door, closed the pawnshop door, and inserted the bolt.

The Jianghu man was confused by this scene, but he still sneered while holding the long sword: "Why, you can't explain it, so you close the door. Do you want to keep the pawnshop's scandal secret from spreading?"

Shen Bai raised his eyebrows and said, "I gave you a chance."

The Jianghu people were slightly stunned.

Shen Bai walked out from behind the counter, a long sword slung across his waist. "I don't know who sent you here to cause trouble, but I don't like to make things worse. If you take the ten taels of silver and leave, I'll pretend I didn't see it, and that would be considered giving you face. But if you don't leave, you're not giving me face."

"Who ordered this? I don't understand." The Jianghu man raised his long knife and said, "If you don't want to pay compensation, then you have to pay a price. I want one of your hands. I am reasonable."

Shen Bai shook his head and said, "People who don't give face are basically dead, but I want to give you a special treatment."

The man from Jianghu frowned and was about to say a few more words when he discovered something was wrong.

Shen Bai's hands were shining with golden light and he pressed towards his arm.

The man from Jianghu reacted quickly, sneering and slashing his long sword towards Shen Bai's left hand.

The long sword flashed with a cold light, and when it was about to chop Shen Bai's left hand, Shen Bai did not dodge, but grabbed the long sword with his backhand.

As the Buddha's light flashed, the long sword instantly turned into fragments on the ground.

The man from Jianghu had an expression of horror on his face. When he was about to turn around, he found that the door behind him had already been closed.

Cold sweat flowed from his forehead and he felt severe pain in his shoulder. One of his arms was torn off alive by Shen Bai and thrown aside casually.

Blood spilled in the pawnshop, and the gangsters rolled on the ground screaming.

Shen Bai took out a rag from the side and gently wiped his right hand: "You just said you wanted my hand, now I've satisfied you, then next, it depends on whether you are honest or not."

He came to the pawnshop to cause trouble for no apparent reason, and Shen Bai didn't know him. Shen Bai couldn't believe that there was no mastermind behind this man.

As for whether it was Zhang Chaofeng, Shen Bai felt that it was impossible.

Zhang Chaofeng has been lurking in Shengyun County for so many years. He is a smart man and it is impossible for him to do such a stupid thing.

While Shen Bai was speaking, the people in the martial arts world were still screaming something.

Shen Bai frowned and said, "Forget it, just cut off the tongue. At least it can be used to write, and it won't make any noises."

The words were said calmly, but to the Jianghu man's ears, they sounded like the whisper of a devil, making him break out in cold sweats and stop screaming abruptly.

Shen Bai squatted down and said calmly, "Tell me who it is, and I'll consider giving you a quick death. Otherwise, I'll grind all your bones into powder bit by bit."

The man in the martial arts world trembled and said, "Master, please let me go. It was Xuan Qingzi from Qingyun Temple. He asked me to see your background."

"Xuan Qingzi, I don't know him." Shen Bai touched his chin.

He remembered hearing news not long ago that Qingyun Temple had sent someone over, who seemed to be a master of the younger generation, named Xuan Qingzi.

But he seemed to have no interaction with Xuan Qingzi.

The Jianghu man quickly said, "He seemed to have seen your strength in a village, so he asked me to come over to confirm it again."
