The next morning, after Su Xin woke up, he saw that Xin Er was still sleeping like a piglet. He didn't disturb her, but walked straight out of the courtyard.
Outside, there were two clever gang members arranged by Huang Bingcheng to keep watch.
Originally, Huang Bingcheng had arranged for four people, but Su Xin felt that it was not necessary, so he left two people and the other two to take turns to keep watch.
Seeing Su Xin come out, the two gang members hurriedly bowed respectfully, "Boss Su."
Su Xin nodded, took out a tael of silver and stuffed it into one of their hands, "Go buy ten meat buns and half a kilo of soybean milk. Use the rest of the money to buy alcohol. It's been a hard night."
Ten meat buns and half a kilo of soybean milk were only eleven copper coins, and the rest of the money was almost all their tips, which made the two gang members very excited.
"Thank you, Boss Su!"
Looking at the two excited people, Su Xin was a little surprised. It was just a little tip, why were they so excited?
In fact, he didn't know that when Liu Sandao was the boss, he was much stricter to them, often beating and scolding them.
Liu Sandao's character was not great, but when he was a low-level gang member, he had a wide circle of friends, and was generous to everyone.
But when he was in power, he showed the appearance of a villain, not having much power, but having a lot of authority.
Before, they saw Su Xin's performance in Drunken Moon Tower, that ruthlessness made them shudder.
Originally, they thought that they had a fierce boss, but they didn't expect Su Xin to be so kind, even generous to the point of giving a tael of silver as a tip.
For low-level gang members like them, a tael of silver was enough for them to live for a month.
Returning to his room, Su Xin Er was still sleeping soundly, so Su Xin first entered the system.
In the vast white system space, the big screen was no longer blank, but there was a column saying: Villain Value: 10.
"Congratulations to the host for taking the first step, you are one step closer to the goal of becoming the most powerful villain."
"Novice mission completed, main mission activated.
Main Quest: Ambition (1) Quest Explanation: A man can't go a day without power, and a man can't go a day without money. If you want power, you must first have money. Within half a year, he had earned 10,000 taels of silver.
Consequences of failure: Randomly deprive yourself of a permanent cultivation technique that you have already learned.
Mission Reward: One Intermediate Lottery Draw, 200 Villain Points. "
"Ten thousand silver taels! Tsk tsk, that's not a small number. "
Currently, Su Xin's main method of earning money was to collect regular fees from the merchants in the Merry Forest, commonly known as protection fees.
Normally, the monthly allowance was only about five hundred taels of silver. During this period of time, Liu Sandao was able to earn a few thousand taels of silver because of his desperate harvesting.
However, if Su Xin did the same, Merry Forest would go bankrupt in less than two months.
If he wanted to get ten thousand taels, he really had to think of a good way.
Moreover, Su Xin really needed money now.
The development of a sect could not do without people, and it was even more so without money.
If you don't have money, do you think those gang members will take out knives to help you kill people? You'd be lucky if they didn't.
"That's right, why is the penalty for this main mission so light, only depriving me of a cultivation technique? But the penalty for the novice mission is cutting off an arm? "Su Xin asked.
The penalty for failing the novice mission was actually heavier than the main mission. Su Xin seriously thought that it was illogical.
"If you can't even complete the novice mission, then it proves that the host is too useless. The sooner you die, the better. It'll save you time."
Su Xin: "…"
"That's right, I should have one more chance at the beginner lottery draw. I want to do it."
With the arrival of a new day, Su Xin naturally had another chance at the beginner lottery draw.
Although the beginner lottery draw was of little value, for the poor Su Xin, even a Qi Nourishing Pill was good enough.
The wheel on the big screen began to spin. It didn't draw a pill or a cultivation technique like Su Xin had hoped for. Instead, it jumped to the miscellaneous items column.
"Congratulations! You have drawn an embroidery piece personally made by Invincible East. It's rated one star."
Su Xin's expression darkened. What use did he have for this thing? He wasn't Yang Lianting.
After giving it some thought, Su Xin said, "I still have ten Villain Points. Let me try the beginner lottery again."
Although Su Xin had both Internal Strength and techniques, his techniques were too simple.
Although Lifeless Thorn's Swift Sword was strong, it was only strong in its craftiness, ruthlessness, and viciousness.
The system had already said that he couldn't reach 100% Proficiency with Swift Sword. The style of the sword was too strong.
Su Xin's swift sword had its flaws. Once it was analyzed and countered by his opponent, Su Xin, who had no other moves other than his swift sword, would be at his wit's end.
Not everyone could be like Li Xunhuan with his throwing knives, who could dominate the world with a single move.
The wheel spun rapidly. Cultivation Techniques, Consumables, Medicinal Pills … Finally, under Su Xin's expectant gaze, the needle slowly moved past the empty slot and barely reached the Cultivation Techniques column.
A young man wearing long robes and a bandana from the Great Northwest appeared on the screen. He held a strange sword with a circular gauntlet in his hand.
Although the young man was handsome, there was a ferocious and arrogant expression between his brows, which made others feel uncomfortable just by looking at him.
"Congratulations! You have drawn the character Chu Zhaonan. You have drawn seven cultivation techniques, including Wind Chasing Sword Technique, Great Meru Sword Form, and Heavenly Mountain Sword Technique. It's rated one star to one and a half stars. Host can choose to draw at random or spend 20 Villain Points to select a specific character. "
"Chu Zhaonan? It's actually him?"
He was the master of Swimming Dragon Sword in Seven Swords Descends from Heavenly Mountain. He was one of the three great swordsmen of the early Kangxi era.
In his previous life, Su Xin had read very few of Liang Yusheng's novels. In fact, the most famous Seven Swords Descends from Heavenly Mountain, Su Xin had only watched a television series.
In Zhao Wenzhuo's version of the Seven Swords, the changes to Chu Zhaonan's character were quite large. He was a heroic character who endured humiliation for the greater good.
But in reality, this fellow was a genuine villain.
Although Chu Zhaonan was one of the Seven Swords, he was arrogant, despicable, and forsook morality for profit.
First, he pursued the heroine Fei Hongjin and helped her fight against the Qing. In the end, when he couldn't get what he wanted, he betrayed his companions and joined the Qing Dynasty, becoming their lackey.
"Last time, I only spent 5 Villain Points. Why do I need 20 this time?" Su Xin asked.
The system said, "Last time, the character was Yin Zhiping. The highest cultivation technique he had was half a star, so it only cost 5 Villain Points.
This time, Chu Zhaonan's rating is one and a half stars. His cultivation technique ranges from one star to one and a half stars. So, you need to spend more Villain Points to select him. "
Su Xin shook his head. "There really aren't any loopholes. Let's just draw at random. However, this fellow has quite a lot of cultivation techniques. He actually has seven. Unfortunately, their levels aren't high. "
Chu Zhaonan's master was the founder of the Tianshan Sect's north branch, Zen Master Hui Ming. He basically knew all of the Tianshan Sect's cultivation techniques.
However, the Liang Sect's wuxia was a low-level world. It was impossible for it to be like the Huang Sect's wuxia, which was close to fantasy. It was normal for the evaluation to be lower. Su Xin thought about it and felt relieved.
The roulette spun again, and the system's cold voice sounded. "Congratulations, Host. You have successfully drawn the Great Meru Sword Technique. Its rating is one and a half stars."
The Great Meru Sword Technique was a sword technique created by Tianshan Divine Light Ling Weifeng. It took the meaning of Mount Sumeru in a mustard seed.
The attack and defense were one, and the variations were complicated. Every move and stance was impeccable.
Although it wasn't the Wind Chasing Sword Technique that Su Xin wanted, the Great Meru Sword Technique had a great advantage in defense. It could make up for Lifeless Thorn's weakness in defense, so it was not bad.
After a while, the gang members outside arrived with breakfast. Su Xin patted Su Xin 'er's face. Only then did she wipe her face, looking sleepy.
"Ah! It's meat buns! "
Seeing the steaming meat buns on the table, the sleepiness on Xin 'er's face disappeared. She immediately grabbed a bun and stuffed it into her mouth.
Su Xin poured her a bowl of soy milk and knocked on her little head. "Why didn't you wash your hands? Are you dirty?"
Xin 'er stuffed a bun in her mouth, and her big eyes narrowed into a happy crescent shape. She didn't answer and just kept stuffing buns into her mouth.
The little girl's world was very simple. As long as there was delicious food and the company of her brother, she would be happier than anything else.
After breakfast, Su Xin ordered his men to find Huang Bingcheng.
Su Xin had become a small leader recognized by the Eagle Gang's higher-ups. As the first person to join Su Xin's side, Huang Bingcheng was now second only to Su Xin and above dozens of people.
That night, while Su Xin was sleeping, Huang Bingcheng had a good time. He called over 60 gang members under Su Xin to lecture them one by one. It was very satisfying.
"Boss Su, you called me?"
"Sit." Su Xin pointed at Su Xin 'er and said, "This is my sister, Xin' er."
"Yo, this little girl is really beautiful!"
Huang Bingcheng grinned and praised, but with his appearance, he looked like a strange uncle who tricked little girls to look at goldfish.
Xin 'er obediently replied, "Hello, uncle."
Huang Bingcheng's complexion suddenly darkened. The heavens pity me. I'm just over 30 today, how did I become an uncle?
Moreover, I called Su Xin boss, and Su Xin's sister called me uncle. How did I suddenly become a generation lower?
"Call me big brother." Su Xin smiled.
"Oh, hello, Big Brother Huang." Su Xin 'er looked at Huang Bingcheng's obviously anxious face in confusion, but still obediently called him big brother.
Su Xin patted Xin 'er's head and said to Huang Bingcheng, "Find a few brothers and follow me to Wang Ji Drugstore."
"What medicine do you want to buy? Just tell them, I'll have them buy it."
A cold light flashed in Su Xin's eyes, "It's not to buy medicine, but to find someone to take back something!"
