"Hmm, I see that this manor of yours is indeed lacking in money and manpower. I'm staying here to settle down, so I need someone to ensure my safety. There are only ten trained servants outside. If an expert were to come and spy on the manor, they would be no different from a decoration."
Murong Yan heard Hong Yi's question and muttered to herself. Then, she nodded and said, "Amon, send a secret letter to Feng Tie from Treasure House. Ask him to secretly send it to Yunmeng and invite Uncle Gan over. At the same time, ask Uncle Gan to tell him the name of his eldest disciple. At the same time, ask Uncle Gan to call his eldest disciple, Chi Zhuiyang. Isn't he always saying that he wants to work for me? "
"Yes, Miss."
Amon, the warrior, immediately stood up.
"Uncle Gan is one of the old stewards of the Murong family. His Frost Marrow Refining Fist has reached eighty percent mastery and has entered the realm of a Great Master. His disciple, Chi Zhuiyang, is also a top-notch Innate Master who has merged his soul and body as one! With these two people protecting me in Jade Capital, I have nothing to fear. "Murong Yan turned around and explained to Hong Yi. Her words sounded like she was flaunting her martial prowess.
"The Murong family's background is unfathomable. Murong Yan is the Third Miss, but she can actually mobilize a Master Level expert! And a top-notch Innate Master! "Hong Yi was secretly shocked.
Although a Master Level expert was not as famous as Wu Sheng, in the Da Qian Dynasty, he was definitely a very powerful character. He could truly defeat a hundred people! Even the Five Commanders of the Royal Guards could not do much.
However, Hong Yi was only shocked in his heart. He did not show it on his face.
He had never seen the power of a Master Level expert. Although he had seen his father, Hong Xuanji, Wu Sheng's realm and Hakuziyue's martial arts, he only had a superficial understanding of it. However, he could imagine that these people were very terrifying. They were like ghosts and had boundless strength.
"As for money, the most I can mobilize right now is about ten thousand taels of gold, which is also my private stash. If you lack money, I can give you a thousand taels of gold at most. I can't give you any more than that. " At the mention of money, Murong Yan's face showed a slightly distressed expression. "However, if you plan to sell the blood-patterned steel needle to me, then it will be different."
"If you can achieve great things, what's wrong with giving it to you?"
Hong Yi laughed.
"Really?" Murong Yan jumped and arched her body like a greedy cat. Her eyes were fixed on Hong Yi, and her breathing was a little rough.
"How is it not true? If I borrow your power and succeed, I will naturally give it to you. I, Hong Yi, am a man of my word. I never go back on my word. "Hong Yi said proudly.
"Alright, it's a deal then."
Murong Yan clapped her hands as if she was afraid that Hong Yi would go back on his word. Although she knew that Hong Yi had set a fragrant bait to catch her, this bait was too fragrant, and she had to bite it.
…
That night, Murong Yan stayed in Green Willow Heights.
On the third day, early in the morning, Hong Yi indeed sent someone to the treasure house in Jade Capital City. With a token from Murong Yan and a handwritten note, he obtained a thousand taels of gold. At the same time, an old shopkeeper in the treasure house, Feng Tie, also prepared five huge mastiffs that were snow-white in color and had a circle of golden fur around their necks. They looked like lions and asked the people he sent to bring them along with the gold to the manor.
When the white mastiffs were brought to the manor, Hong Yi was practicing martial arts, and Murong Yan was also stretching her body. Seeing such a mastiff, Hong Yi was shocked.
"What kind of mastiff is this?"
Hong Yi knew that mastiffs were divine animals to guard mansions. In the mansions of the Da Qian nobles, there were many mastiffs. The top one was the snow mastiff, the second was the black mastiff, and the third was the grey mastiff. The top snow mastiffs could fight lions and tigers. They were worth thousands of taels of silver and were priceless.
Last time, when Hong Yi met Hong Xuejiao in the West Mountain, Princess Yongchun also used black mastiffs to hunt, and there were no snow mastiffs.
But now, these five mastiffs were not only white, but also had a circle of golden fur around their necks. He had never heard of this kind of mastiff, let alone seen it.
However, from the looks of it, although these mastiffs all had lazy expressions, Hong Yi was able to tell that they naturally possessed a sort of graceful bearing. It was as if they were the monarchs of the mastiffs. Furthermore, when they walked, they did not make the slightest sound. Their bodies that were even larger than calves moved as fast as lightning and as quiet as virgins.
"This is a king mastiff. Every 100 high-grade snow mastiffs mate, there is a chance of producing a king mastiff. This kind of king mastiff is very intelligent, and it can be made to look after thousands of cows and sheep. Even if a pack of wolves comes, a roar from them will make the wolves not dare to approach! They are only kept in the Yun Meng royal family. These five king mastiffs are treasures that I spent a lot of money to get my hands on. They are also trained to fight with people! Even a martial arts master might not be able to defeat them! "
Murong Yan said proudly, and then said to one of the king mastiffs, "Jin 'er, show me your Golden Splitting Fist."
When this king mastiff heard Murong Yan's words, it walked out and let out a low roar! The sound was like muffled thunder, shaking people's eardrums and making their eardrums hurt.
This roar shocked a few ordinary horses on the training field of the manor. Only the Chasing Lightning Horse was as steady as Mount Tai.
Then, in front of Hong Yi's incredulous eyes, the fur on the Lion King's body stood up straight like a hedgehog. Its entire body seemed to have grown bigger. It stood up fiercely, like a bear standing on its hind legs!
After standing up, the king mastiff fiercely pounced forward. Its hind legs kicked hard, and its entire body pounced forward more than ten steps like lightning. Its front paw was like an axe, and it fiercely chopped a stone on the training field!
Pfft!
Stone fragments flew everywhere, and the large stone that weighed hundreds of kilograms rolled far away like a ball. At the same time, a deep palm-shaped pit appeared on the stone!
After standing up, pouncing, and chopping, the king mastiff scurried back like lightning. It was as agile as a leopard! After scurrying back, its expression was serene, as if it had not made a move at all. It was like a martial arts expert. Although martial arts experts did not have the posture of running on all fours, this king mastiff's aura was really like that of a martial arts expert!
"How is it? Hong Yi, you won't be able to withstand the strength and speed of this palm! "
Murong Yan said with a smile when she saw not only Hong Yi, but also Mu The Younger's astonished gazes.
"With this kind of strength, each of them can deal with two or three tigers and lions! But compared to a human's martial arts, I'm afraid they are not as flexible and versatile. "Hong Yi knew that animals were intelligent. With their physical advantages and human training, it was not strange for them to know martial arts.
"That's true." Murong Yan raised her eyes, "Their feet are all thick pads of flesh, and their claws are hidden in the flesh. Once they show their power, their flesh is as hard as iron, and their claws are like hooks. They are much more powerful than humans. Moreover, they have received specialized martial arts training. Although they are not as flexible as humans, and there are not many moves, one move is enough to dominate the world. Moreover, they can see ghosts and spirits. More importantly, their alertness and sense of smell are more sensitive than that of a Xiantian Master. If they encounter anything wrong, they will immediately call the police. I brought them here to guard the manor. "
"A dog's nose is naturally a hundred times more sensitive than a human's. Even if one's martial arts is practiced to the Xiantian Master, one's nose and alertness are not as good as them. If someone comes to visit the manor, they will naturally be discovered from afar. Even an Xiantian Master will be discovered. " Hong Yi nodded. With these five king mastiffs in the manor, there was indeed no need to be afraid of any experts coming to visit.
However, these king mastiffs were a little expensive. An ordinary snow mastiff was worth thousands of taels of silver. This king mastiff was probably ten times more expensive.
"However, they are also particular about what they eat. Every day, one of them has to eat tens of kilograms of fresh meat, and they have to be tender. They also have to drink milk to maintain their strength. However, I have sponsored you a thousand taels of gold, so you can afford to raise them. "
Murong Yan chuckled.
Hong Yi then understood that a small part of the reason why Murong Yan brought her beloved dogs to the manor was because she could not bear to part with the thousand taels of gold. She wanted to raise them herself. These five king mastiffs had to eat hundreds of kilograms of fresh meat and drink milk every day, which was equivalent to the meals of a hundred strong men.
Even a small landlord would be poor after raising these five king mastiffs for half a month. Murong Yan took out a thousand taels of gold and brought the king mastiffs here. In fact, she was taking his money to raise her beloved dogs and was not willing to suffer any losses.
After understanding Murong Yan's thoughts, Hong Yi did not know whether to laugh or cry. This woman was really calculative when it came to money.
However, this was also worth it. At the very least, these five king mastiffs had extremely high alertness. They could even see ghosts and spirits. If an Xiantian Master came in, they could also smell the scent. From now on, Green Willow Manor would not be afraid of any experts coming to visit.
