"It's not enough." Brother Milk didn't explain further as he simply said two words.
"How much more?" Hui Play asked seriously.
"A hundred times." Brother Milk had only said that number because he wanted Hui Play to return. He didn't believe that Hui Play could really do it, at least not in a short period of time.
"Alright, I'll earn more money when I return until I can exchange for Ah Cai." Hui Play was only a child after all, so he took Brother Milk's words seriously.
"Alright, I'll send you out." Brother Milk sent Zhou Wen and Hui Play out.
Old Jin couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief when he saw Brother Milk bring Zhou Wen and company out. He didn't wish to have a conflict with Brother Milk.
"Everyone, they are just children. Can you not make things difficult for them and leave them a way out?" Brother Milk said to the crowd.
"Since you said that, it must be a misunderstanding," Old Jin hurriedly chimed in.
Most people still gave Brother Naughty Boy face and automatically made way for him.
Zhou Wen thanked Brother Milk and company and was about to leave with Hui Play when he suddenly heard strange hoofbeats.
Everyone's expression changed when they heard the hoof beats. Even the milk bro's face turned pale in an instant.
Zhou Wen immediately realized what had happened as he turned his head to look in the direction of the hoofbeats. He saw a person slowly walking over on a two-headed dragon.
The two-headed dragon was pitch-black in color, as though it was carved out of black gemstone. Every scale emitted a dark glow, as though it was an abyss in a mirror.
The person sitting on the dragon's back was extremely muscular and tall. He was nearly three meters tall, making him look like a giant. However, although he was muscular, he didn't appear clumsy. His muscles were firm and streamlined, making him look like he was filled with explosive strength.
Contrasted by the tight-fitting black armor, he looked even more domineering and mysterious.
He couldn't see his appearance, only a faceless mask. Upon seeing the mask, Zhou Wen roughly guessed who he was.
In fact, there was no need to guess. The reaction of the people in Fireworks Alley was enough to explain everything. The person was likely the godlike Faceless Buddha in Fireworks Alley.
Wherever the Faceless Buddha passed, everyone automatically retreated to the two sides of the street. They put their palms together and bowed their heads as if they were praying to Buddha. No one even dared to raise their head to look at the Faceless Buddha.
Old Jin's face was pale. When he saw the Faceless Buddha coming from afar, he knelt down before the Faceless Buddha and said, "Your Excellency, I saw that they were just children and thought it was just a prank, so I wanted to let them go …"
Even the well-respected milkman was a little less free and easy in front of the Faceless Buddha. He said solemnly, "Sir, this matter has nothing to do with Old Jin. I forced Old Jin to let them go. They are just children. You won't argue with them, will you?"
"Didn't I tell you that people from the Hui Clan are not allowed to enter the Fireworks Alley?" Faceless Buddha said indifferently.
"Yes," Milk Bro answered bitterly.
"Are they from the Hui Clan?" Faceless Buddha asked again.
Brother Milk opened his mouth but didn't know how to answer.
"I'm from the Hui family. My name is Hui Play. I came here on my own. It has nothing to do with them." As Hui Play spoke, he came in front of the horse and took out all sorts of contracts from his backpack. As he did so, he introduced the value of the items.
"As long as you let Ah Cai go, these are all yours. If you think it's not enough, you can name a price. Ten times or a hundred times is fine. I'll give it to you as soon as possible." Hui Play's tiny body stood in front of the majestic two-headed dragon without any fear.
"Even if it's a thousand times or ten thousand times, it won't be enough to exchange for Ah Cai," Faceless Buddha said indifferently.
Hui Play froze. Although he was very good at earning money, it was still too difficult to make a thousand times or ten thousand times. Furthermore, even if he could earn it, the other party wouldn't be willing to exchange for Ah Cai. This made him feel unprecedentedly helpless.
Only then did Hui Play act like a normal child. He looked at Zhou Wen helplessly, his eyes filled with helplessness and unease.
The two-headed dragon continued walking forward and was about to bump into Hui Play. Thinking that Faceless Buddha was really going to attack Hui Play, Brother Milk hurriedly pulled Hui Play back, but he didn't dare attack Faceless Buddha. He pleaded, "Lord, he's just a child. Even if his surname is Hui, what the Hui family does has nothing to do with him. Please let him go."
Only Brother Milk still dared to speak. The others, like Old Gold and Old Demon, didn't even dare breathe loudly. The pressure Faceless Buddha exuded was just too terrifying. It was as though this person was born with a terrifying sense of oppression.
Despite Brother Milk's pleas, the two-headed dragon didn't stop. However, Faceless Buddha didn't attack Hui Play either. The two-headed dragon walked past them and came in front of Zhou Wen.
"When did your surname become Hui?" Faceless Buddha looked at Zhou Wen and asked an unexpected question. It left Brother Milk, Old Demon, and company stunned.
"When did my surname become Hui? Don't you know what my surname is? "Zhou Wen said with a smile. He could already tell who Faceless Buddha was the moment he appeared.
"When did you come?" Faceless Buddha asked again.
"I just arrived today," Zhou Wen answered.
"When are you leaving?" Faceless Buddha asked again.
"I was planning on leaving now, but since you're here, I have to make you bleed a little. I'll have a feast before leaving," Zhou Wen said with a smile.
"Come on up." Faceless Buddha turned the two-headed dragon around, clearly indicating for Zhou Wen to sit on it.
This action caused everyone in the Fireworks Alley to widen their eyes. Although the Faceless Buddha was the king of the Fireworks Alley, he had always been a loner and never brought anyone with him. No one had ever been to where he lived, let alone riding on the Faceless Buddha's horse.
"I brought this child here. I have the responsibility to send him back safely. Can I bring him along?" Zhou Wen knew that this person was definitely not someone who would attack a child.
"Up to you. You decide." Faceless Buddha's answer left everyone agape in shock.
Old Demon, Old Gold, and company stole glances at Zhou Wen. They had never heard of anyone who could make Faceless Buddha make such a concession.
Back when a member of the Cape family beat up a woman in Fireworks Alley, Faceless Buddha broke all the person's limbs and ordered that the Cape family was not to enter Fireworks Alley for three months.
In the end, a young man from the Cape family didn't think much of it and came to Fireworks Alley. In the end, he was mercilessly killed by Faceless Buddha. The Cape family didn't do anything to Faceless Buddha.
Now, because of Zhou Wen's words, not only did Faceless Buddha spare Hui Play, but he was even willing to let Hui Play, a member of the Hui family, go to his house. This was unbelievable.
Hui Play also looked at Zhou Wen in a daze as he stood there motionless. It was unknown what he was thinking.
Zhou Wen pulled Hui Play and boarded the two-headed dragon's back. Under the gazes of everyone in Fireworks Alley, the two-headed dragon disappeared into the depths of the long street.
