Tome of Troubled Times

Chapter 295: The place was packed with people

Views:

Zhao Changhe didn't know how Ying Wu could be considered to have "obtained" the space. It couldn't be considered to have just sent someone to guard it...

Even if you “get” them, how can you connect them together? This is not like playing with building blocks.

Maybe he has his own unique method, but it is obviously inconvenient to ask, and others may not be willing to tell.

From the perspective of cooperation alone, there is really no problem. Zhao Changhe said, "Cooperation means that we can share information about the secret realm. If I have any news to tell you, can I use your information as I please?"

"As long as it is information related to the secret realm, we can share it with Mr. Zhao. Even if Mr. Zhao is interested in the secret realm we found before, he can visit it."

Zhao Changhe clapped his hands and said, "Fifth Master is straightforward."

Ying Wu smiled and said, "But I don't think Mr. Zhao has much interest in visiting. After all, we have already cleared out the treasures and secret manuals that should be there. Mr. Zhao has always treated this space as a piece of trash... Speaking of which, I won't give you the things I got in the past."

"That's what you guys are looking for. How can I be so bold as to ask for it? As for the place, maybe I will bother you someday." Zhao Changhe was in a good mood and asked, "Fifth Master has explored so many places. He should know more about the ancient secrets than anyone else. Can you share some with me?"

"These are our unique advantages over other forces... Whether we can share them depends on our future relationship." Ying Wu smiled and said, "If we are true friends, we can talk about anything we want. Even if some specific treasures we want happen to conflict with our friends, we can still discuss it, not to mention some secrets?"

Of course... Don't be fooled by his smiling face. We have just started discussing cooperation and we are not close friends yet. It is impossible to go deeper. Zhao Changhe thought this was normal and said straightforwardly: "A gentleman's word is a promise, and the cooperation is established."

Ying Wu laughed even more happily, his eyes squeezed together. He suddenly took out a bloody sign and handed it to Zhao Changhe: "Here, a small gift for meeting you, just a token of respect."

As the sign was taken out, bloody and murderous aura instantly filled the room. The murderous aura in Zhao Changhe's body was aroused, and his eyes almost turned red.

Immediately he suppressed his anger and took a deep breath: "Is this what Master Wu said was different from Cui's medicine and sold to me for one penny?"

"Yes, the Cui family is a humble family, and they don't have these bloody and murderous things. We businessmen can handle anything." Ying Wu said leisurely: "Cui Wenjing can help you heal your wounds, and can give you some guidance on the ninth level of the Mysterious Gate and even the secret treasure, but he can't give you the blood and evil spirits needed to practice the Blood Evil Technique. The huge energy and blood evil energy required to advance from the eighth level to the ninth level, are you ready?"

Zhao Changhe looked down at the blood-colored plate and felt that its aura was very similar to the beads he had obtained from Maitreya before, but it was of a higher grade and had a more concentrated bloodiness.

If the bead of Maitreya is just an inlay on the corner of a Blood God Array, then this blood card is very likely to be a relatively core component.

This thing is really important to me!

Only someone like Ying Wu, who treats all kinds of secret realms as his own living room, could take them out at will. I'm afraid that even Xia Longyuan doesn't have so many strange and bizarre things, let alone Cui Wenjing.

He looked up at Ying Wu, who was still smiling: "How is it?"

Zhao Changhe stuffed the sign into his arms without hesitation: "This thing is really useful to me, so I won't be polite to Master Wu."

Ying Wu laughed, stood up and said goodbye: "I will pass on the order. When Master Zhao comes to our place in the future, the information will be shared directly without guessing. That's it for now. I am looking forward to the results of our cooperation in the future. Goodbye."

"Hey wait a minute." Zhao Changhe stopped him and asked, "Master Wu, have you ever heard of Dragon Elephant Blood Ginseng?"

Ying Wu thought it was very interesting: "I've heard of it, but I've never seen it. I only know it's an ancient thing that doesn't exist in this era. If you want it, you can only find it in some secret places. Isn't this exactly our next cooperation project? I didn't know where to start before, but now I have a direction."

Zhao Changhe also found it interesting: "There will be many things to bother Master Wu in the future."

Ying Wu waved his hand and left leisurely.

After leaving the guest house, Sha Qi, who was supposed to be in Jianhu City, came to his side and asked in a low voice: "Fifth Master, no matter how you look at it, we are losing money in this cooperation. Even if he has a lot of secret realm fate, how much can he have? At least we should set a standard, how much should be completed every year to be reasonable..."

Ying Wu said speechlessly: "Do you think I'm giving you casino profit targets on weekdays?"

"Well, I just feel like I'm at a disadvantage..."

"In addition to buying and selling, there is another way to do business called investment. Did you know that?"

"What, what is that?"

"The most convenient person to do this kind of thing is the emperor who has unified the world, but Xia Longyuan not only does not look for one, but instead wants to keep these spaces divided and let each family fight to the death. So it is not in line with our principles and has become an obstacle. But can't you bet on the next emperor?"

Sha Qi: “?”

"I'm not interested in his current abilities, but what he can do in the future. If we cooperate when the situation is set, it will be too late to eat hot shit." Ying Wu said, glancing outside the corridor. Huangfu Yongxian was approaching: "Look, who's coming?"

Sha Qi turned his head and took a look: "This is Huangfu Yongxian's territory, of course he will come to see the guests. Oh, by the way, Master Wu, I heard that you liked Zhuque before, have you ever thought that his daughter might be the one?" Ying Wu took a deep breath, veins popping out: "Is this what I asked you to think about?"

Sha Qi said: "Isn't it? Come to think of it, you are almost a generation older than Zhuque. It doesn't matter who Zhuque is. She doesn't like you. You are old and fat..."

"..." Ying Wu was silent for a moment: "How is your swordsmanship going?"

"The training was not quite right..."

"Change to a dagger from now on. It's more suitable for you than swordplay."

"Why? I've been practicing sword for so long."

"Because you took the dagger, you can call it Sand Dagger from now on." Ying Wu left with a wave of his sleeves: "You are trying to find excuses to get away with it at Tingxue Tower. This is not how reputation is played. If you do this again in the future, it won't just be a dismissal, it will be beheading!"

Sha Qi thought about it silently for a while and felt that even if the head was cut off, it would still be a sand dagger, there would be no difference.

Huangfu Yong knocked on Zhao Changhe's door first. "Has Young Master Zhao rested? I'm late because I'm dealing with the war. I wonder how your injuries are?"

Zhao Changhe had just climbed up from his chair and lay back on the bed to study his blood cards. He sat back down helplessly: "You are too polite, old general. Please come in."

It's really crowded. You really don't treat me as an injured person. An injured person needs to rest...

But even if he rejected Ying Wu, he would not reject Huangfu Yongxian. Everyone would respect this old veteran who dedicated his whole life to the frontier and whose family was full of loyal heroes.

What's more, his daughter is Miss Winged Fire Snake.

Zhao Changhe was thinking about how to curry favor with the old general... In the eyes of the Four Symbols Sect, the imperial concubine Huangfu Qing might be very meaningful in keeping an eye on Xia Longyuan's status and actions, and it might also be convenient for the political layout of the Four Symbols Sect. It might also be politically significant from the perspective of Huangfu Yongxian, but in fact it really means nothing.

I wonder if I can discuss a plan with the old general to put an end to this farce... Otherwise, with the status of a royal concubine, even if Xia Longyuan is just looking at her, I will never be able to get close to her.

Just as he was thinking about it, Huangfu Yongxian came in first, holding his helmet, kneeling on one knee, bowing his head and saying, "Greetings, Your Highness."

Zhao Changhe: “?”

His mind went blank for a moment, and he quickly jumped up from his chair: "No! I really am not!"

Huangfu Yongxian bowed his head and said: "It is my fault that Your Highness was allowed to go to Longtan alone and survive a near-death experience."

Zhao Changhe was so confused that you couldn't even tell whether he was blindly loyal or was really scared that Xia Longyuan would blame him for this.

Serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. Even if you win the battle, no good things may come of it.

Zhao Changhe hurriedly helped him up: "If he said it's not true, then it's not true! Xia... I guarantee he won't use this as an excuse!"

As a result, when I tried to help it, I found that it seemed to have taken root and I couldn't move it at all.

Huangfu Yongxian was originally ranked ninth on the list, and was promoted to eighth after He Lei's death.

He is not an old veteran who is about to die.

However, he could not help him at first. When Zhao Changhe finished speaking, the old general smiled and stood up by himself. He whispered, "Since Your Highness has guaranteed it, I can trust you."

“…” Zhao Changhe found himself trapped.

You are not a prince, how can you guarantee this

Since you dare to say that you can guarantee it, isn't it obvious

In fact, whether you admit this or not is no longer an issue at the moment. The real biggest problem is that if the old man determines that you are the prince, what should the imperial concubine do
