Chapter 4: Newcomers to the Universe Chapter 16 Seven Killing Tower
When Xu Jingming entered, it was dusk in the bloody rain world. The sunset had not yet completely set, and half the sky was illuminated red.
After standing by the window and looking at the sky, Xu Jingming returned to the bed and sat cross-legged, meditating and cultivating his mind.
…
Day passes and night falls.
In the study, the candlelight flickered, and Master Chang Yi was reading a book alone.
Suddenly, I heard footsteps outside, followed by "bang bang bang" and knocks on the door.
"Young Master." Qingyu spoke from outside.
"Come in." Chang Yi put down the book.
Qing Yu then pushed the door open and immediately closed it. At this moment, her face looked a little ugly. She said, "Sir, I just took the people from the pawnbroker to the mansion of that old master Wang and presented the proposed transfer contract, but that old master Wang was too greedy."
"Greed?" Chang Yi looked at her.
"Mr. Wang said that he heard that the Huayue Gang sent hundreds of people to kill us on the street, and he was afraid of offending the Huayue Gang, so he didn't want to buy it." Qingyu said angrily, "If he really wants to buy it, he is only willing to pay 1,000 taels of silver. This greedy old guy agreed to 2,000 taels of silver at noon , and said it was a deal, but in the evening he changed his mind and said 1,000 taels of silver."
Chang Yi laughed and looked at Qing Yu with a smile: "Don't be angry, there's no need to be angry, this is how businessmen work, if they get the chance, how can they not bargain?"
"We can't sell it at such a low price." Qingyu said, "Besides, we were ambushed by the people from the Fenghu Hall of the Huayue Gang at noon because we were trying to meet with Master Wang."
"It has nothing to do with Master Wang."
Chang Yi put down the book and said, "We are being targeted by the Fenghu Hall of the Huayue Gang. As long as we go out, no matter who we meet, we may be ambushed. This fight... is also within my expectations. This battle will also let all forces know that I, Chang Yi, am not someone to be trifled with!"
"Having Xueyuwei Wu Commander as my adopted father is frightening. As long as they dare to deal with me, Wu Commander will definitely take the opportunity to blackmail me given his greed." Chang Yi said, "The identity of Xueyuwei Wu Commander's adopted son is enough to save me a lot of trouble."
"But identity alone is not enough, I also need to be strong enough, so there is a street fight today." Chang Yi said, "This way, there will be very few people in Lanyue City who dare to take advantage of me. I will also have enough time to slowly sell my property!"
Qingyu nodded: "If it were my temper, I would have killed that Master Wang a long time ago."
"Sister Qingyu." Chang Yi comforted, "I have been in the Blood Rain World for many years, and I know the rules of this world very well. You should control your temper. After all, I have spent all my money to fight for this opportunity!"
"Okay, you're the one paying, I'll do whatever you say." Qingyu also smiled.
Qingyu and Changyi are from the same cosmic civilization. Although they are from different life planets, they have had a deep friendship in the virtual world in the past. That's why Changyi asked Qingyu for help this time.
"The three brokerage houses are all helping me find a buyer." Young Master Chang Yi said with a smile, "The price I offer is relatively cheap. There are still many families and forces with strong backgrounds in Lanyue City. It will definitely be sold within three months. But don't be impatient! If you are impatient, there will be problems."
"Are we waiting now?" Qingyu asked.
"can not wait."
Chang Yi shook his head. "Given the temper of the gang, if they fail once, they will be more ruthless next time. We can't always take a beating. Here, take this token and go to Laifu Inn on Beifeng Street."
Qingyu saw a token in front of him, with three strange blood-colored patterns on it.
"Laifu Inn on Beifeng Street?" Qingyu asked in confusion.
"Hide your identity, go to Lai Fu Inn, meet the innkeeper, take out the token and show it to him, he will naturally take you into the inn." Master Chang Yi said, "This inn is actually the base of the assassin organization 'Qishalou' in Lanyue City. I remember that half a month ago, there was a mission to reward 'Dong Xiao', the deputy head of Fenghu Hall of Huayue Gang. You use my token to take this mission. Qishalou only recognizes tokens, not people."
"Fenghu Hall Vice-Hall Master Dong Xiao?" Qingyu nodded slightly, "What if the mission is gone?"
"Just change the mission. Any other second-rate expert from Fenghu Hall will do, as long as he is not the hall master." Young Master Chang Yi said, "Killing the hall master will cause a lot of trouble."
"Okay." Qingyu nodded.
…
About half an hour later, in the darkness, there was almost no one on Beifeng Street.
Laifu Inn is a relatively small inn with only a few wooden tables on the first floor. The waiter was dozing off at one of the tables. The shopkeeper was standing behind the counter, calculating the bills.
Suddenly, a man in gray and wearing a bamboo hat walked in. The hat was pulled down to cover most of his face. He walked to the counter and showed his token.
The shopkeeper looked up at the token with an unchanged expression.
"Please follow me." The shopkeeper walked directly into the inn, and the man in gray followed him. After passing through the mechanical passage, they came to an underground hall where three old men were busy.
An old man approached the gray-robed man and said, "Mr. Sansha, are you here to issue missions or to accept missions?"
"Accept the mission." The man in gray said.
"These are the missions within Lanyue City, and these are the missions in the surrounding area." The old man immediately brought over two thick books.
…
Chang Yi was very cautious. He had been in the Blood Rain World for many years, so his strength was naturally extraordinary. But he had invested too much this time and did not dare to take any risks. Whenever he went out, he would be accompanied by a large group of guards.
Bang bang bang, there was finally a knock on the door.
Soon Qingyu came in.
"How is it?" Chang Yi looked at her.
"I received the mission." Qingyu nodded, "Dong Xiao, deputy head of Fenghu Hall of Huayue Gang!"
Chang Yi nodded with satisfaction.
"The people from the Seven Killings Building said that it must be resolved within three days, otherwise it will be considered a mission failure." Qing Yu looked at Chang Yi with a smile, "But I didn't expect that you would become a 'Triple Kill' level killer in the Seven Killings Building."
"I have been in the Blood Rain World for so many years, so of course I have some experience." Chang Yi said, "Go and invite Mr. Lu and the other three to come over."
Qingyu nodded.
A moment later——
Xu Jingming, Mr. Lu and Miss Zi Teng came into the study. They were all a little confused because it was almost the end of their working hours for the day, but Mr. Chang still wanted to recruit them.
"Three of you." Chang Yi sat there, looking at the three with a smile, "Now there is an assassination mission. Even if the assassination fails, each of you three can get an additional bonus of 150,000 universe coins. If the assassination is successful, each of you will be rewarded with 300,000 universe coins."
Xu Jingming, Mr. Lu, and Miss Zi Teng exchanged glances and smiled.
Failure will earn you 150,000?
Even if you die once, you can spend another 100,000 and make extra money.
"If the assassination fails, you may die. But you still have to continue the task of protecting me." Chang Yi said.
"Can."
"no problem."
Xu Jingming and the other three nodded.
In this mission, there is only profit, no loss!
"The target of the mission is Dong Xiao, the deputy head of Fenghu Hall of Huayue Gang." Chang Yi said, "This Dong Xiao is a second-rate master, and his residence is also heavily guarded. Everyone please be careful."
Xu Jingming and the other three nodded. If they were second-rate masters from the original inhabitants, they might be worried about the danger of death! But Xu Jingming and the other two had only been in the Blood Rain World for a short time. Even if they died, they would just spend 100,000 universe coins to come back.
"This is detailed information about Principal Dong." Chang Yi took out a book from the side and handed it over. "I hope that the three of you can deal with Principal Dong in the second half of tonight."
"OK."
Miss Zi Teng took it and said, "Nothing else, we'll leave first. We have to prepare the assassination plan."
"You three go and get ready." Chang Yi said with a smile.
Then Miss Zi Teng, Xu Jingming and Mr. Lu left together.
"If the three of them join forces, they have a good chance of success," Chang Yi said.
"admire."
Qing Yu exclaimed, "The reward for killing Dong Xiao is 200 taels of silver. Converted into cosmic coins, it would be close to 2 million cosmic coins! If you ask the three of them to take action once, if they succeed, you will only have to pay an extra 900,000 cosmic coins. You're still making a profit."
"I'm a businessman." Chang Yi smiled brightly.
