Chapter 240: Cunning Old Man
In an instant, Li Zang became the focus of the whole audience.
Li Zang was not surprised by this.
If Jiang Xiaoan were to make plans for the Li family, then he would not be able to avoid such a golden thigh.
Jiang Xiaoan looked at Li Zang and said pitifully, "Senior, can you help my friend?"
"Senior Li, please help my Li family!!!"
Li Chaoren hurriedly greeted Li Zang and tried to get help from Li Zang.
There is no father who does not worry about his children.
Even if he is a strong man!
Li Zang nodded and did not refuse.
He took the letter from Li Chaoren, opened it and started reading.
Everyone around him looked at Li Zang in silence, waiting for him to discover something...
In fact, the Li family had already believed that Li Zeju had been kidnapped, because Li Zeju had disappeared and the servants couldn't find him no matter how hard they looked.
And the timing of the appearance of this letter was perfect.
If you say it's okay, who would believe it!
Li Zang's eyes quickly scanned the envelope until he saw the three words "Zhang Ziqiang". His brows, which were already slightly furrowed, suddenly furrowed even deeper.
"But is there any problem?" Li Chaoren asked hurriedly upon seeing this.
"There are indeed some questions. Do you know who Zhang Ziqiang is?" Li Dao asked back.
"I don't know? I've never heard of this person." An elder answered first.
There are billions of sentient beings in the world of cultivation, but there are always some curious people who compile all kinds of strange lists, which can almost include most of the talented craftsmen. Anyone who has a skill can be seen on the list.
Li Zang said slowly: "Zhang Ziqiang... is not a good person, but a fierce bandit! He specifically targets those talented people and kidnaps and extorts them..."
"That's a murderer who is willing to take blood on the knife!"
"I have met him several times when I was out, and almost every time, he was blackmailing me. Although I tried to stop him, Zhang Ziqiang is as strong as me, and his methods are even more weird. He managed to escape every time. It's such a pity." Li Zang sighed, seeming helpless.
Li Chaoren and Jiang Xiaoan looked at each other. This was the first time they heard of Zhang Ziqiang and they felt something was not right.
Jiang Xiaoan, in particular, felt deeply uneasy about his good friend.
She only knew a small part of Li Zang's strength, but that small part was shocking enough. Being able to escape from his hands meant that... Zhang Ziqiang must be extremely powerful!
And she is also considered a genius... In other words, she might also be Zhang Ziqiang's target!
Since Zhang Ziqiang can target Li Zeju, does that mean... he can also target me?
Li Chaoren was even more panicked.
What should I do when my daughter is in the hands of a bloodthirsty bandit?
Will the other party kill her, or do something unlawful to her daughter? !
The key point is, the brutal bandit is just an assistant, so who is the main culprit Hu Xiaobai? ?
How could their Li family have provoked such an existence?
Is it true that a big tree attracts the wind, and too much money attracts people's attention...
"What should we do then?" Li Chaoren asked.
"Go meet him!"
Li Zang's eyes narrowed, and he said righteously: "Although Zhang Ziqiang is a fierce bandit, he is a man who values integrity and will not easily harm hostages..."
"So, we can first follow their request." Li Chaoren said hurriedly: "Two billion spirit stones, of course my Li family can take it out, but if the other party is really that strong..."
Li Zang said slowly: "Jiang Xiaoan and I just arrived in Jianye City yesterday. This means that even if the other party knows more about the strength of the Li family, they will never calculate my existence."
"It may be possible to capture him even if we plan carefully and unintentionally!"
"Okay! Then I'll leave it to you, senior!" Everyone in the Li family echoed.
They are not the kind of people who are afraid of trouble. They didn't know who Zhang Ziqiang was before and didn't want to cause any more trouble. But after learning that the other party might target their descendants, they were naturally furious.
Today it is Li Zeju, tomorrow it might be other descendants of the Li family!
Besides, don’t we still have Li Zang... With him around, all the monsters and ghosts, Zhang San and Li Si, are nothing but clouds and smoke!
And just like that, the action begins.
Li Chaoren raised funds, and then a few hours later, he received a letter.
It was a paper crane that flew in from afar on its own.
In the letter, the time and place, as well as the transaction method,
I have to say that Bai Xiaoyin's IQ is still pretty good when she's doing bad things... Although she already has a complete plan, she was able to add a lot of her own ideas to this plan.
This includes the courageous act of personally waiting for everyone to visit and negotiate with her. She even made a bold statement that she doesn't mind as many people as the Li family wants to come.
To be honest, this was something Li Zang had never expected...
You are really awesome!
But having said that, not all of the Li family members were mobilized.
Li Chaoren seemed to feel the sincerity of the contents of the letter, so he just took another elder, as well as Li Zang and Jiang Xiaoan, a total of four people, to meet the robbers.
Of course, the more likely possibility is that they were afraid of the other party's strength and did not want more members of the Li family to lose their lives, so they did not call them.
After all, in a battle at a higher level, being one level weaker means you could be killed instantly at any time...
The meeting place arranged by Bai Xiaoyin was quite remote, almost uninhabited.
"These bandits really know how to choose a location." The Li family elder frowned and became more certain of the robbers' cunning and scheming.
If it hadn't been premeditated, the arrangement wouldn't have been so perfect.
However, the Li family members did not know that this place was specially chosen by the local tyrant Bai Xiaoyin.
The reason why she chose this place was very simple, that is, to leave a way to escape!
"Brother Qiang, Brother Qiang, they are coming up!!"
On a path in the distance, a snow-white little fox was running towards us quickly, speaking human language.
"Oh? Coming up?"
Li Zang's incarnation, which was created by his thoughts, sat on a stone pier. He raised his eyes slightly and asked nonchalantly, "How many people are here?"
In fact, as a clone of one thought, he certainly knew what was going on.
"Four people, just like you said, as long as we show our sincerity, they won't bring too many people!"
The little fox danced around in front of Li Zang, looking very excited.
"Why are you so excited?" Zhang Ziqiang asked curiously.
"Excited? Are you? No." Bai Xiaoyin argued.
What a joke! I can extort 2 billion spirit stones right away. How can I not be excited?
Bai Xiaoyin seemed to have seen the 2 billion spirit stones waving at him again!
Ha ha ha ha!
"Hey, Xiaobai, we are people who are going to do big things, so we must first be able to calm down."
Zhang Ziqiang taught earnestly, "Under normal circumstances, they won't hand over the money so easily. Today is just an appetizer to test their bottom line. It's not a real deal. There's no need to get so excited."
"But if we don't reach an agreement in one go, won't it alert the enemy?" Bai Xiaoyin asked thoughtfully, pinching his chin with his paws.
"Haha, alerting the enemy?"
Li Zang smiled and said in a clear and logical manner: "This is exactly the effect we want! The person is in our hands, so we should start from here and give them an invisible mental pressure, giving them the courage to say that we want to talk, and if you don't want to talk, then don't talk!"
"Oh, so that's how it is. You are worthy of being the gangster of the century." Bai Xiaoyin nodded in agreement and raised a big fox paw to Zhang Ziqiang to show encouragement.
At this time, Bai Xiaoyin could be said to be completely holding the heart of an apprentice.
Learning skills from experienced people is much better than slowly gaining knowledge by feeling her way across the river on her own!
A boss is a boss, he teaches by example!
"By the way, how is she?" The "she" Bai Xiaoyin was referring to was Li Zeju who was hidden by Li Zangzang.
"She's angry."
"But it doesn't matter. The formation I set up is very concealed. As long as I don't tell them, they will never find me, and they won't be able to rescue Li Zeju."
"oh oh!"
Bai Xiaoyin thought, you didn’t even tell me... You are so cunning!
"You're not going to kill her?"
"Why do you think so?" Li Zang raised his eyebrows and said seriously, "Remember, we have discipline. We will never do anything unnecessary. As long as they pay, we will let them go. In our line of work, integrity is the most important thing."
"You are worthy of being like this, a chivalrous thief who also has his own code of conduct." Bai Xiaoyin took the opportunity to praise Zhang Ziqiang again.
Li Zang almost had a second-year syndrome due to all the praise.
However, this kind of role-playing is still quite fun.
So, he fully accepted Bai Xiaoyin's praise, then took out a handful of spirit stones and sprinkled them into the air generously.
That indifferent expression contained a sense of dominance, as if to say… "If you hang out with me, you will definitely get some spiritual stones."
Bai Xiaoyin's eyes lit up, he jumped up happily and quickly caught the spirit stones in the sky.
"Okay, I'll leave the negotiation to you. Since you volunteered, I trust you. If anything happens, remember to release the Cloud Piercing Arrow I gave you!"
"I know. One arrow pierces the clouds and thousands of troops rush to meet us!"
"Go ahead." Li Zang gave the order calmly.
"Yes, sir!" Bai Xiaoyin's voice was clear and pleasant. He jumped up and disappeared into the bushes beside him.
