"Excuse me for asking, Mr. Sima, what method did you use to kill Chen Xuan?" Chen Tian asked with a flash in his eyes.
How could Sima Xiba possibly tell him the truth?
Shaking his feather fan, he raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, "Mr. Chen, it's best not to ask questions that you shouldn't ask. Even if you ask, there will be no answer."
This made Chen Tian somewhat unhappy.
However, Mr. Sima was a man of great power. He took on many dirty jobs in private and never failed. He had a very good reputation and Chen Tian did not dare to offend him.
"The head will be delivered to you tonight, and the women that Mr. Chen likes will also be delivered to your house safely. I may be away from the capital for a few days in the next two days, so Mr. Chen, please settle the payment for me first."
Sima Xiba smiled faintly. Although he had a smile on his face, he gave people a feeling that he could not be refused.
Hearing this, Chen Tian felt somewhat unhappy.
He hasn't seen Chen Xuan's body yet, and the women he liked haven't been delivered yet. The things haven't been really completed yet. Why are they asking him for money now?
However, no matter how unhappy he was, he didn't dare to offend Sima Xiba.
He immediately said, "Mr. Sima's ability is well-known. I know it. Here are the five thousand taels of gold you asked for."
As he spoke, he threw out a ring.
This is a space ring that can hold objects of several cubes in size. It is very expensive.
The larger the space, the higher the price.
Anyway, Chen Xuan doesn't have this thing. It's not that he can't afford it, but the cheapest space ring is worth a house in Beijing.
Chen Xuan had been an orphan since childhood, and had to live on the little inheritance left by his parents, but he dared not squander it.
Sima Xiba took the space ring and glanced inside with his divine sense. It was filled with five thousand taels of gold, not a penny less.
He immediately took out a space ring, poured out the five thousand taels of gold in Chen Tian's ring and put it into his own ring.
"It's a pleasure to cooperate with Master Chen. I have other things to do, so I'll leave first."
He returned Chen Tian's ring, bowed and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, Chen Tian couldn't help but frown.
Leaving now?
But he didn't say much. After all, Sima Xiba's business ability was indeed outstanding, and he had never failed in anything that others paid him to do!
The only downside is that it's a bit too expensive.
Five thousand taels of gold, converted into silver, would be fifty thousand taels!
"Damn you Chen Xuan, I had to spend so many people just to save your life. When your corpse is delivered to me, I will whip it severely!"
Chen Tian gritted his teeth and spoke coldly.
But soon, he suddenly laughed again:
"Haha, these women will be sent to my room tonight. The little bitch An Ruxue from the Snow Sword Sect has the legendary body of ice and jade, and she is still a virgin."
"If I take a day off with her, taking her yin to replenish my yang, and using her body to nourish myself, in a year at most, I will be able to break through this great realm of warrior and reach the level of martial artist!"
“Once I reach the level of a martial artist, I will be the fastest young man in the Chen family to reach the level of a martial artist in the past hundred years. I will be a genius that only appears once in a hundred years. At that time, all the cultivation resources of the family will be allocated to me. My cultivation speed will advance by leaps and bounds, and I may even have the hope of competing for the position of clan leader in the future.”
"Although it hurts me to spend these five thousand taels of silver, it's worth it!"
If the people in Jinfeng Village knew that Sima Xiba received a commission of 5,000 taels of gold from Chen Tian, while they only received 1,000 taels for working for them, they would probably cry bitterly.
This guy is such a shady agent!
It's so dark!
As they had not slept the whole night, Chen Xuan took the girls to find an inn to rest. They planned to continue their journey after getting enough rest and also buy a few horses for transportation.
There was no way out. The horses brought from the capital were all poisoned to death by poison arrows.
While they were resting in the inn, they didn't know that the entire Bandit Mountain was in uproar!
Inside Liufeng Village.
"What did you say? The entire Jinfeng Village, hundreds of bandits, all died?"
"To reply to the village chief, I saw with my own eyes that not only were all the people in Jinfeng Village dead, but the village was also burned down. Not only did our Liufeng Village know about this, but several nearby hilltops also knew about it. In addition, the news of the destruction of Jinfeng Village spread more and more widely. It is absolutely true and cannot be false!"
"Damn it, what kind of existence did those idiots from Jinfeng Village provoke? They were wiped out overnight!"
"Could it be that someone from the imperial court killed them?"
"Impossible. Jinfeng Village is just like our Liufeng Village. On the surface, they are bandits, but in reality, they are all lackeys of the imperial court, doing shady things for the important figures of the imperial court. If the people of the imperial court want to destroy them, they will definitely receive the news in advance and hide."
"If it's not the imperial court, then who could it be?"
"Could it be that some particularly powerful person has come to our Bandit Mountain recently?"
For a moment, people from top to bottom in Liufeng Village began to panic.
Even the village chief Liu Jinyu felt somewhat uneasy.
After all, Liufeng Village is the closest to Jinfeng Village.
If they can destroy Jinfeng Village overnight, can they also destroy your Liufeng Village overnight?
It would be strange if I wasn't afraid.
"Damn it! Immediately send a pigeon to inform Lord Qin of the situation. Lord Qin is a high-ranking official in the court, second only to a few people but above ten thousand. He must know something."
After thinking it over, Liu Jinyu finally gave the order.
Soon, a carrier pigeon flew out from the top of the hill of Liufeng Village and flew all the way to the residence of a third-rank official in the capital.
Half an hour later.
A carrier pigeon flew out from the mansion and headed straight for Liufeng Village.
When Liu Jinyu saw the contents of the letter, he was stunned and dumbfounded.
"Boss, what did Lord Qin write in the letter?"
A group of subordinates were itching to speak, so they urged him to speak.
"See for yourself!"
Liu Jinyu threw the letter to them.
However, these bandits were all illiterate and could not recognize a single word when their carrying pole fell to the ground.
As long as you can read, you can become a teacher. Why do you have to become a bandit?
They didn't recognize a single word on the letter.
Seeing this, Liu Jinyu was speechless, so he had to pick up the letter and read it to them himself.
"Master Qin said..."
"Lord Qin himself is not clear about the destruction of Jinfeng Village. Let us investigate the reasons for their destruction ourselves. After the investigation, tell him the reasons as soon as possible."
Liu Jinyu told the contents of the letter.
In an instant, all the bandits in Liufeng Village turned green in the face.
