Chapter 983 Termination of the transaction!
"Congratulations, my husband~"
Shuzhou City.
When Wei Changtian accompanied Liang Qin for nearly an hour and finally walked to the front hall happily, ready to meet the visitor from Lingmen Temple, Yang Liushi, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately smiled and joked: "You look so happy, like a different person just now."
"That's for sure."
Wei Changtian waved his hands with a smile, not hiding his joy: "After all, I'm a father now."
"yes"
Yang Liushi looked towards the small courtyard with some envy in her eyes: "I also want to go and see Xiao Hongsu."
"Okay, you can go and see it after you finish dealing with things here."
Wei Changtian knew what she was thinking, so he smiled softly and said, "Besides, we will have children sooner or later, don't worry."
"Um"
Yang Liushi's cheeks turned slightly red, but soon returned to normal.
After a few simple jokes, the two of them naturally turned the topic to business.
"My husband, that person is still waiting in the tea room."
"I just talked to him for a while, and it sounds like Lingmen Temple must have found out Chu Xianping's whereabouts."
Walking side by side towards the tea room, Yang Liushi reported in a low voice: "But he won't say more. I think he wants to wait until you take out the second half of the sword manual before he's willing to speak."
"But I think we can't give them this sword manual easily. After all, it will take some time to verify the truth of the information. It's best to wait until we catch Chu Xianping before giving it to them."
"Well, I understand that."
Nodding, Wei Changtian turned around and asked, "Has Li Zimu arrived?"
"arrive."
Yang Liushi pointed forward and said, "She's waiting outside the tea room. I've already told her the general situation."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
“.”
As they talked, the two of them walked through a hidden path and soon came to a side courtyard in the corner of the mansion.
Although this is not a dark room, no one comes here on weekdays, so there is no one here except Li Zimu who is waiting outside the yard.
"Sir, Madam."
Seeing the two people coming, Li Zimu immediately came forward to greet them, and then asked in a low voice:
"Sir, Madam Liang is there."
"Yes, it's complete. It's a baby boy."
"Ah, congratulations, sir!"
"Hahaha, okay, go in."
"yes"
“.”
It's only a few dozen steps from outside the courtyard to inside.
But after walking just a few dozen steps, the smiles on the faces of Wei Changtian, Li Zimu and Yang Liushi had completely disappeared, as if the "joy of having a child" did not exist.
"Squeak~"
The door opened, and three people walked into the tea room. The only person in the room immediately stood up.
He is not very old, probably around 30 years old, dressed in ordinary cloth, and his realm should be fourth level.
Although he is a Buddhist, there is no trace of a monk on his body. I think he is a lay disciple of Lingmen Temple who specializes in doing things "under the table".
"I am Song Pu, honored to meet Master Wei."
His eyes quickly swept over Wei Changtian and the other two, and the man was the first to bow and say, "I have heard of your great name for a long time, and it is a great honor to meet you today."
Wow, that’s quite polite.
Wei Changtian waved his hand to signal Li Zimu to close the door, and then he walked to Song Pu without stopping, looked him up and down, and then chuckled and said, "Brother Song, I'm afraid this is not the first time you have seen me."
"Uh, young master, you are wise."
Song Pu is a smart man. He knows that some things are known to everyone and there is no need to cover them up.
Therefore, he was only slightly stunned for a moment, and then he generously admitted: "I did follow the order of the abbot of our temple and followed you all the way from Fengyuan to Shuzhou. I hope you will forgive me."
"Hahaha, no problem, please sit down, Brother Song."
After laughing twice, Wei Changtian had roughly figured out Song Pu's weight, so after sitting down, he went straight to the point.
"Brother Song, I heard that you came to see me this time because your temple has found out the whereabouts of Chu Xianping?"
"yes."
Song Pu glanced at Li Zimu and Yang Liushi who were also sitting down with their skirts pulled up, but he did not ask to talk to Wei Changtian alone. He just paused and replied softly: "To be honest, sir, my temple just found out a few days ago. Once confirmed, I immediately sent someone to inform you."
"Oh? Really?"
Wei Changtian narrowed his eyes: "So Chu Xianping appeared near Lingmen Temple?"
"right."
Song Pu still nodded generously: "At least this morning, the place where he stayed was not too far from our temple."
"Okay, Brother Song, I see you are a straightforward person, so I won't waste my time."
Nodding slightly, Wei Changtian took out a booklet from his arms and placed it on the tea table while speaking.
"Brother Song, this is the second half of the Moon-Stirring Sword Manual."
"But I can't give it to you yet."
"It's not that I don't believe you, it's mainly because this thing is too valuable. I have to confirm the authenticity of this matter first."
"Well, I will send someone to Lingmen Temple right away, and your people will take my people to Chu Xianping's hiding place to take a look."
"As long as my people meet Chu Xianping, I will immediately hand over the sword manual to you, and your temple will no longer need to worry about the rest."
"What do you think?"
“.”
First send someone to Lingmen Temple to meet Chu Xianping and then complete the transaction.
For a transaction like this where there is no trust between the two parties, this approach is naturally very normal.
After all, when nothing can be confirmed, we can't expect Wei Changtian to hand over the sword manual on the spot like a fool.
"What you said is exactly what our temple's abbot thinks."
Nodding with a smile, Song Pu must have thought that Wei Changtian would propose this transaction method a long time ago, so he didn't think too much about it at the moment.
Anyway, Dayan is the territory of Lingmen Temple. If Wei Changtian really goes back on his word, they will not be afraid at all.
Even in the worst case scenario, they can just fall out, and at worst, neither side will get what they want.
I am not afraid of you breaking the contract, and you are not afraid of me breaking the contract.
Since both parties are not afraid of losing both their money and their lives, and both agree to this transaction method, the next thing seems to be very simple.
After all, judging from the current situation, what Wei Changtian took out was indeed the real sword manual, and Lingmen Temple did indeed find out the whereabouts of Chu Xianping.
But "Master Wei, I will do it now."
"Uh, sorry, please wait a moment, sir."
Suddenly, Song Pu paused, then put his hand into his sleeve with an apologetic look on his face.
Wei Changtian, Yang Liushi and Li Zimu looked at each other and they all knew that he was sensing the mother and child jade.
Doing this during such an important negotiation shows that the message is very urgent.
However, the three of them initially thought it was just a coincidence.
Until they saw Song Pu's expression gradually becoming strange. From surprise, to nervousness, and then to panic.
When beads of sweat appeared on the forehead of Song Pu, who had been very calm before, Wei Changtian's expression also became meaningful.
"Brother Song, what's wrong?"
After more than ten breaths, seeing Song Pu pulling his hand out of his sleeve, Wei Changtian asked calmly, "Did your temple regret it?"
"this"
Song Pu swallowed his saliva, looked at Wei Changtian, then at Li Zimu and Yang Liushi, and after hesitating for a long time, he finally answered with difficulty: "Sir, to be honest,
"Just now, Chu Xianping has already completed the complete Moon-Stirring Sword Manual."
"I'll hand it over to the abbot of our temple first."
