"You don't want to ask about the name of my fourth son of the Lu family!"
Chu Liuyue suddenly realized that he was Chu Xianmin’s cousin.
Before these horoscopes have even been written, they have already started to establish relationships. Sure enough, it’s not like a family doesn’t belong to the same family...
The old man snorted:
"Who cares who you are!? Ten thousand taels, not even a penny less! If you can't afford it, someone else will buy it!"
Lu Zhitao laughed angrily, weighed the red stone, and said openly:
"Oh? I just want to see who will buy this thing?"
As he spoke, he looked around warningly.
People who were a little interested in the red stone stopped one after another.
—The fourth young master of the Lu family cannot be offended by anyone!
A red stone of this size would cost only two thousand taels of silver, so no one would spend ten thousand taels!
What's more, he deliberately presented his identity, and whoever bought it was working against him!
I had heard before that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince liked Chu Xianmin, and in the past two days it was even more rumored that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's birthday party invitation was personally sent to Chu Xianmin by his personal bodyguard Song Yuan.
It seems that the position of future crown princess is indeed none other than Chu Xianmin!
Now, wouldn't offending the Lu family be equivalent to offending the prince
Everything was quiet.
Lu Zhitao said proudly:
"Old man, I advise you to be more aware of the current situation. No one will buy this thing except me -"
"Ten thousand taels, I want it."
A cold voice suddenly came!
At the same time, a white hand suddenly reached out from the side and took away the red stone!
How could Lu Zhitao have imagined that someone would really dare to snatch what he was interested in? It took him a while to realize it.
Taking a closer look, the other person was wearing a black robe and a bamboo hat. She seemed to be a young woman
Lu Zhitao felt angry immediately!
"Who are you? You have the heart of a bear but the guts of a leopard!? You dare to snatch the things that this young master likes!?"
The old man was also a little surprised. He finally opened his other eye and looked at Chu Liuyue carefully:
"really?"
The red stone was indeed of excellent quality, but it wasn't actually worth ten thousand taels. He was just short of money recently and didn't want to sell it to Lu Zhitao, so he casually asked for ten thousand taels. Unexpectedly, someone was actually willing to buy it!
Chu Liuyue directly took out a ten thousand tael silver note and handed it to the old man.
The old man was a little hesitant at first, but when he saw the banknote, his eyes sparkled and he immediately took it.
—He has been really poor recently!
"The one with the highest price gets it, don't you understand this principle? Besides, this red stone is worth thousands of taels of silver at least. You want to buy it for a hundred taels. Where in the world can you take advantage of it so easily?"
Chu Liuyue said and sneered.
"Or is it that the Lu family's wealth was obtained through such means?"
Lu Zhitao's face turned red with anger!
This was even scolded by the Lu family!
Without thinking, he directly drew out the long sword from his waist and stabbed Chu Liuyue.
"I can do whatever I want, and it's your turn to teach me a lesson! I'm looking for death!"
The old man who had just collected the money slightly raised his eyelids and gently grasped his palms. Just as he was about to move, he stopped in surprise and looked at Chu Liuyue.
She moved lightly, turned around, and somehow avoided Lu Zhitao's sword!
Lu Zhitao missed the target, became more and more angry, and attacked Chu Liuyue again!
This time, Chu Liuyue did not retreat. Instead, she took a step forward, bypassed his sword in a strange way, raised her leg and kicked Lu Zhitao hard on the elbow!
His arm went numb and the sword fell!
The next moment, his neck felt cold, but Chu Liuyue had already picked up the sword and placed it on his shoulder!
As long as he moves, he might be dead and in a different place the next moment!
When the old man saw this scene, his eyes changed from surprise to curiosity, and he looked at Chu Liuyue carefully.
"Huh?"
This girl clearly doesn't have any force fluctuations. Logically speaking, she will definitely not be Lu Zhitao's opponent, right? And those few moves just now are simple, neat and deadly!
If she wanted to, Lu Zhitao's life and death depended on her in an instant!
It’s really interesting…
Lu Zhitao immediately broke out in a cold sweat and stuttered when speaking.
"You, you, you—what do you want to do!? You, you dare—"
Chu Liuyue put more force on her hand, and blood immediately oozed from Lu Zhitao's neck!
"Noisy!"
Lu Zhitao was so frightened that his face changed! The rest of the words were swallowed back into his stomach!
He could see that the other party was really bold and could do anything!
Although his cultivation talent is not very good, the Lu family has spent a lot of money on him over the years, and at least he has been able to break through to the third level warrior.
Warriors of this level do not have abundant force power and can only master some simple martial arts. However, whether it is physical strength or fighting skills, they are not comparable to ordinary people.
The opponent was clearly not a warrior, but...he defeated him easily!
"roll!"
Chu Liuyue shouted lowly, and Lu Zhitao stood up tremblingly, retreating continuously until he had retreated more than ten steps, and then finally managed to shout:
"You! Wait for me, Master!"
After saying that, without waiting for Chu Liuyue to speak, he immediately turned around and ran away quickly.
Chu Liuyue didn't take him to heart at all, and threw down the sword, turned around and left.
Buying that piece of red stone today was already an unexpected surprise, and there is no point in staying here anymore.
What's more, she knew that Lu Zhitao must have gone back to recruit reinforcements, and she didn't want to reveal her identity so quickly.
The people who had originally gathered in a circle saw that Chu Liuyue was about to leave, so they subconsciously made way for him.
Although this man couldn't see his figure or appearance, there was an inexplicable coercion about him that made people subconsciously surrender.
"Hey - wait!"
When the old man saw this, he immediately reacted, hurriedly put the stall away, and was about to chase Chu Liuyue.
However, when he looked up, he found that Chu Liuyue was nowhere to be seen!
He was stunned for a moment, couldn't help but shake his head and cursed with a smile:
"What a vigilant girl!"
However, it is too naive to think of getting rid of him like this!
…
Chu Liuyue soon realized that someone was following her, so she quickly changed her route and walked through several streets. Instead of heading towards the Chu family, she went further and further away, and finally entered a remote and narrow dead end.
Entering it, the surroundings were quiet, and then she turned around:
"It's been hard enough for you to follow me all the way. If you have anything to say, why not just say it directly!"
After a moment, a somewhat rickety old figure appeared at the entrance of the alley!
Sure enough, it was the old man wearing a shabby cotton coat!
