Chapter 64: I don’t want to get involved!
"What!?"
After hearing what Captain Zhao said, Wang Ye blurted out in surprise: "Give the money you received to Aji?"
"What else?!"
Without waiting for Captain Zhao to say anything, Ah Ji puffed out his chest and said, "I was the one who chased the thief away, and I also saved your life..."
"That would be fine, but you let me take the blame at the critical moment."
"Isn't it reasonable to give me this money?"
As Aji spoke, he looked very righteous.
"Okay, okay, you little bastard is right!"
Seeing the righteous look on Aji's face, Wang Ye rarely said anything in rebuttal.
After all, it was his unintentional act to let Aji take the blame, so it was reasonable for him to give the money to Aji.
"But I got a total of 20 taels of reward this time, and I used 10 taels to buy tiger whip wine..."
Thinking of this, Wang Ye scratched his head and showed the tiger whip wine in his hand: "Otherwise, use this tiger whip wine to pay the debt..."
"Come on, I'm not going to visit brothels, you can keep the wine for yourself..."
Before Wang Ye could finish his words, Aji said firmly: "Money is more cost-effective..."
"It's okay if you don't have enough silver. Just give me ten taels first, and then you can increase my salary by ten taels this month. That way we'll be even!"
Perhaps because he had been with Wang Ye for a long time, Aji was very meticulous when he spoke and would not give in even a cent.
"Hey, you little bastard!"
After hearing what Aji said, Wang Ye's face changed: "Are you really taking me for a fool?"
"What's the difference between giving you a ten-liang salary increase and giving it to you directly?"
“It makes no difference…”
Seeing Wang Ye's expression, Aji said, "The main reason for paying you in two installments is to give you some buffer time, so that you don't end up leaning against the door frame and crying after you give me the money..."
"It's embarrassing, but it's also really ugly..."
Damn it!
When Aji said this, Wang Yeteng was furious.
This kid Aji has become more and more slippery and shameless under his control.
"Okay, you little bastard can!"
After hearing what Aji said, Wang Ye's eyes widened: "You look so shameless, you really have some of my charm when I was young!"
"That is……"
At this time, Aji puffed out his chest and said, "Don't you see who I work for..."
"okay!"
Seeing the scene before him, Captain Zhao looked at the sun outside the window and poured himself a bowl of tea and started drinking: "Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, everything will be fine..."
"It's getting close to noon now, give me a bowl of pig intestine noodles so I can eat and go back to rest."
As he spoke, Captain Zhao picked up a plum and began to eat it with relish.
"Okay!"
After hearing what Captain Zhao said, Wang Ye said, "Don't worry, there's plenty of pork intestines!"
After saying this, Wang Ye kicked Aji and said, "Go away, what are you still standing there for? Let Chen Chong have a bowl of pig intestine noodles!"
"Wang Ba Pi!"
After being kicked by Wang Ye, Aji muttered softly and turned to walk towards the kitchen.
…
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is night.
After dinner, Wang Ye came to Li Huaikong's room with three pounds of mutton, two steamed buns and the medicine he bought during the day.
At this time, Li Huaikong was sitting cross-legged on the bed.
A red energy circulated continuously throughout his body, forming a perfect cycle between his breath.
A steaming heat was generated from his body, making the whole room feel burning.
Seeing this, Wang Ye shook his head.
What Li Huaikong practiced was the unique skill of the Holy Fire Sect, the Zunming Holy Fire Skill.
This skill is extremely domineering and powerful, and is the signature martial art of the Holy Fire Sect.
As if he had noticed Wang Ye, Li Huaikong moved slightly.
The red true energy all over his body was absorbed into his body like a whale sucking water.
Suddenly the heat in the room disappeared and Li Huaikong opened his eyes.
"Shopkeeper..."
Seeing Wang Ye, Li Huaikong said respectfully.
"time to eat!"
After hearing what Li Huaikong said, Wang Ye put the mutton and steamed buns on the table: "Chen Chong specially cut three pounds of mutton for you to eat more while you recover from your injury..."
"These ungrateful people, I didn't receive such treatment when I was sick..."
"The shopkeeper has unparalleled martial arts skills, but he can also get sick?"
Hearing Wang Ye's words, Li Huaikong was slightly surprised.
"You have to pretend..."
Glancing at Li Huaikong, Wang Ye said, “Otherwise, I am just an ordinary shopkeeper and I don’t have any disease, which would arouse suspicion.”
"I see……"
Li Huaikong nodded: "The shopkeeper is indeed very meticulous..."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense..."
Wang Ye waved his hand impatiently and placed the wound medicine and tiger penis wine he bought during the day on the table: "This is Dragon Blood Gold Wound Powder. You will drink it with the tiger penis wine later. It will be good for your injury..."
"Tiger whip wine..."
After hearing what Wang Ye said, Li Huaikong said, "This wine is not for aphrodisiac purposes..."
"Why are you the same as those people?"
Before Li Huaikong could finish his words, Wang Ye interrupted him and said, "This tiger whip has not only that effect, but it can also strengthen the tendons and bones, promote blood circulation, and relieve fatigue and heal injuries. It will be good for your condition!"
"That……"
After hearing Wang Ye's words, Li Huaikong hesitated for a moment and then said, "Thank you, shopkeeper..."
"Um"
Seeing Li Huaikong agreed, Wang Ye nodded and said, "Let's go!"
Having said that, Wang Ye prepared to leave.
"Shopkeeper, please stay!"
The moment Wang Ye turned around, Li Huaikong spoke hurriedly.
"what happened again?"
Being stopped by Li Huaikong, Wang Ye said impatiently: "Why are you so fussy and woman-like now that you have something to worry about? Can't you just say it all in one breath?!"
Plop!
As Wang Ye was speaking, Li Huaikong's knees softened and he knelt down in front of Wang Ye: "Huaikong dares to ask for a favor!"
As he spoke, Li Huaikong placed a package in front of him and slowly opened it.
Suddenly, a white jade bracelet and a jade hairpin appeared in the package.
In addition, there is a copper key.
"Tomorrow is the day for Huai Kong to retire from the underworld. If Huai Kong goes there, he may be in danger..."
As he spoke, Li Huaikong kowtowed in front of Wang Ye and said, "If I never come back, please ask the shopkeeper to give this thing to her. She will stay at a peasant woman's house outside Jinling City..."
"Stop!"
After hearing what Li Huaikong said, Wang Ye frowned and said, "I have already retired from the martial arts world and don't want to get involved in this kind of thing!"
"Since we are old friends, I advise you that if you insist on quitting tomorrow, you will surely die!"
"It's better to wait until the injury is healed before making a decision."
"Besides, seeing that woman who lost her husband is unlucky and will affect my fortune. You have to give these broken things to yourself. I don't have the time for that!"
Having said that, Wang Ye opened the door and left.
