One million taels of gold instead of one million taels of silver. The difference between the two was too huge.
The owner of the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club said with sparkling eyes, "Why didn't I think of this before?" If she had, the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club would have made a fortune a long time ago. Why did they have to organize the disciples to carry the big bags on the dock every day?
The Marvelous Mathematician was startled and said, "Fortunately, you didn't think of this crazy way before. Otherwise, our Xiongfeng Martial Art Club would have been in ruins." Extortion, especially from the tough Dafeng Chamber of Commerce, was not something that anyone dared to do?
However, this time, the young Great Master was in the right, so no one could blame him.
"How about it? Think it over. You only have one chance. " To be honest, if I were you, I would hack Zhou Yu to death with a hack. For a prodigal like him, even if he dies in pain, it's a good thing for you. Once he dies, you can go back to find some wives and concubines and try your best to have a few more children. What's the saying again? By the way, if your main account is ruined, you can always start a sub-account to learn from the experience. "Li Mu's tone was full of malicious mockery.
Zhou Dedao was sweating profusely. He stood rooted to the spot, his face contorted in a ferocious struggle.
"Father, save me, save me, I'm your only son …" Zhou Yu was tied up in the carriage and couldn't move at all. He struggled madly, wailed, and screamed like a man who had fallen into quicksand with only his head sticking out of it. He was hysterical.
Zhou Dedao gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, I promise you."
He had only one son when he was old, so he spoiled him so much. More importantly, Zhou Dedao did have concubines. He secretly kept several concubines outside. But no matter how hard he tried and how many miraculous elixirs he took, after so many years, he still could not save a son or a daughter. It seemed that he was not good at that aspect.
Therefore, he had to keep this prodigal son alive.
Otherwise, how could he carry on the family line?
"Fine. If it's too difficult, go and raise the money. I only give you one day."
Li Mu's voice sounded.
Along with this figure, an emerald green bamboo leaf drifted down from the green bamboo wall of the courtyard of The Shack. It drifted slowly through the gap of the carriage and landed on Zhou Yu's forehead.
Strangely enough, the moment the bamboo leaf touched him, Zhou Yu, who was struggling with all his might, immediately calmed down. His eyes regained their clarity and calmed down. He slowly closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep as if he was in a deep sleep.
"Within a day, he will be safe and sound."
Li Mu's voice sounded again.
Zhou Dedao rushed into the carriage and carefully examined his son. The famous doctor on the carriage took Zhou Dedao's pulse and nodded. "Young Master Zhou's pulse is stable, his breath is calm, and his viscera are clear. He's fine. He just fell asleep. “
Zhou Dedao let out a sigh of relief.
"Thank you for your mercy, Great Master." He cupped his hands in obeisance.
Then, he turned around, pointed at the three carriages behind, and said, "This is the generous gift I prepared for you before I came here. Please accept it. It's not included in the one million ingots of gold we agreed upon. Please forgive me if I offended you before today. But our Dafeng Chamber of Commerce has limited financial resources, and it's a bit hasty to collect one million ingots of gold in one day. Please give me two more days and allow me to collect the money within six days. What do you think?"
The courtyard of The Shack fell into silence. Just as Zhou Dedao was feeling uneasy, he heard the voice of the young Great Master again. "You just want to postpone the payment until after the fight between me and that shit Heaven-Sword Celestial Being, don't you? Well, if I die in the fight, you won't have to pay, right? "
"Well, I absolutely dare not." Zhou Dedao's forehead was covered with cold sweat. Of course, that was his intention. But he did not expect that the young man saw through him so quickly.
"I can promise you that. You can go now." Li Mu's voice came from inside.
Zhou Dedao felt as if he had been granted amnesty. He hurriedly turned around and left.
The rest of the Zhou family also left.
"This Zhou Dedao is an idiot." The owner of the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club said with a grin, her pretty face full of disdain.
The Marvelous Mathematician asked, "Oh, why do you think so, Big Brother?"
"Think about it. If Great Master Li Mu really dies in the fight, no one will save his son. He will die for sure. If I were him, I would definitely ask Li Mu to remove the curse from my son before the fight. Only in this way can we be absolutely safe," said the owner of the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club.
The Marvelous Mathematician hesitated for a moment and said, "Big Brother, you may have overlooked one thing."
"What is it?"
"If the person who cast the curse dies, there is a certain probability that the curse in the victim's body will dissipate by itself."
"Ah? Is there such a thing? "
But of course, it's just a probability, not a hundred percent. Zhou Dedao is also gambling. If Li Mu dies in the battle and the curse in Zhou Yu's body doesn't dissipate, then Zhou Yu's death won't be a big deal. In Zhou Dedao's eyes, it's God's will. After all, a million pounds of gold is too much for him. I guess he wants to leave the decision to God, "said the Marvelous Mathematician.
"Fu * k, you abacuses are full of the stench of money. There are too many people in the club." The owner of the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club said with a contemptuous look.
The Marvelous Mathematician was speechless.
"Come on, let's knock on the door and visit." The owner of the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club shook off the sunflower seed shells on her, rose to her feet, and headed for the gate of the yard of the Shack.
The Marvelous Mathematician hurried to catch up with her. "Big Brother, are you really going to recruit Li Mu?"
"Of course. He is going to be a nouveau riche with a million pounds of gold. I will never let him go." The owner of the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club narrowed her eyes into a pair of crescent moons. Her glittering appearance made her look extremely miserly.
…
…
After half an hour.
"Fu * k … He really turned me down." The owner of the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club was so angry that her chest puffed up. She gnashed her teeth and headed for the outside of the Pig-Herding Alley. Then, she muttered, "If it weren't for the fact that I can't beat him, I would have beaten him so hard that even his mother can't recognize him.
I'm so pissed off! "Although she had entered the yard of the Shack and met the legendary young Great Master Li Mu, her request to recruit him was rejected without hesitation. That made her feel very humiliated.
However, the Marvelous Mathematician just shook his head and said, "A mountain is famous not for its height but for its immortals; a water is not for its depth but for its spirit; a dragon is its spirit. Although this is a shack, only my virtue is fragrant … Haha, wonderful, really wonderful. I didn't expect that Li Mu is not only a cultivator of magic and martial arts but also an excellent writer. His Epigraph of My Shack is enough to spread all over the world. He deserves to be the youngest Jinshi in the history of the empire. Today, I'm really lucky to have read it.
Hahaha, wonderful. It's really wonderful. I didn't expect that Li Mu was not only a cultivator of magic and martial arts, but also an excellent writer. This Epigraph of My Shack is enough to spread to the whole world. He deserves to be the youngest Jinshi in the history of the empire. It's really a great blessing for me to read it today.
The Marvelous Mathematician was the second most cultured person in the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club. He had done some research on Li Mu's past. After reading the Epigraph of My Shack, he kind of understood why Li Mu, an abandoned son who was driven away by the magistrate of the prefecture and cut off all ties with his father, made his way to where he was today step by step. This young man really had a kind of astonishing spiritual power and personality persistence.
This Epigraph of My Shack was really in line with this young man's fate.
Nowadays, the whole Chang 'an City was talking about the unparalleled personal strength of this young Great Master. But how many people knew that this young man actually had unparalleled literary talent?
Looking at the Marvelous Mathematician's drunken look, the owner of the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club could not help saying, "Hey, hey, hey, you look so emotional. Is that Epigraph of My Shack really that awesome?"
"Of course it is. Once, when Young Master Wen Zongbin passed by Chang 'an City, he wrote a poem called Ten Rains in the Ancient Capital, which made paper in Chang' an City very expensive. Once this Epigraph of My Shack by Great Master Li Mu spreads out, I think it will have the same sensational effect. What a peerless poem!" The Marvelous Mathematician exclaimed.
"Humph, it's just a lousy poem. How is that possible?" The owner of the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club snorted.
"Boss, to tell you the truth, you'd better not talk about poems, lest you make a fool of yourself … Ouch, why did you hit me? Okay, okay, I was wrong … Ah, help! Can't you let me tell the truth …"
"You f * cking tell me! How am I rude? Ah? I hate it when people say I'm rude. I'm a girl … "
In the distance, on the bamboo building in the depths of the Pig-Herding Alley.
Li Mu rubbed his forehead and watched the two clowns of the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club leave, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
As for the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club, it was also mentioned in the materials written by Zheng Cunjian. It was said that it was a dirty place in Chang 'an City, and its members were all crooked and unscrupulous. However, Zheng Cunjian also admitted that the owner of the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club, Tan Yanzi, was a tough character. Although she was a woman, her Scorching Sun Fist with the help of the golden boxing gloves was extremely masculine. She could be said to be the best in punching in Chang' an City, and could also be ranked in the top 20 in the list of experts in Chang 'an City. Her strength was even stronger than Zhang Chengfeng, the Heaven-breaking Legend Sword of the Heaven Sword Martial Club.
In fact, Li Mu had long sensed the arrival of Tan Yanzi and the Marvelous Mathematician.
The unfathomable aura he first sensed was exactly Tan Yanzi, the owner of the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club.
Therefore, after the Zhou family left, the two asked to see him at the door, and Li Mu made an exception and let them into the yard.
However, as for Tan Yanzi's invitation to join the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club, Li Mu certainly refused.
He did not have that much time to fool around with a bunch of weirdos.
However, that Marvelous Mathematician accidentally discovered the Epigraph of My Shack on the plaque at the door of the bamboo building. As if he had drunk all the pure nectar, he was intoxicated on the spot and kept praising it. At that time, the look in his eyes changed, as if he had turned into a little fan. Obviously, he regarded the plaque and the Epigraph of My Shack as Li Mu's work.
About an hour after the two people of the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club made a big deal out of the two, Zhang Chengfeng, the current owner of the Heaven Sword Martial Art Club, came to the Pig-Herding Alley in white linen clothes and issued a challenge to Li Mu in person.
"Heaven-Sword Celestial Immortal, the ancestor of the Zhang family, challenges Great Master Li with the secret manual of the Heaven-sword Sixteen Styles. Do you dare to accept the challenge?" Zhang Chengfeng's voice, with the surging internal qi, was almost heard by the entire western district of Chang 'an City.
"Sure."
Li Mu agreed without hesitation.
The reason he proposed the wager was originally for the Heaven-sword Sixteen Styles.
"Three days later, on the drill ground of the Heaven Sword Martial Art Club, the Zhang family will welcome the arrival of Great Master Li Mu." Zhang Chengfeng, the Heaven-breaking Legend Sword, gnashed his teeth and said, "I wonder what Great Master Li will bet on this duel?"
Li Mu directly and shamelessly retorted, "It's you who are challenging me, not me. Why should I bet on it?"
Zhang Chengfeng was dumbfounded and finally left with resentment.
Soon, the news spread in Chang 'an City.
The duel between Great Masters shook the entire Chang 'an government, and the aftermath even spread to other provinces of the empire.
