Yu Shuang glanced at the few silver ingots on the table, raising an eyebrow slightly: "Are you sure that's all?"
Su's face showed a hint of impatience:
"No, that's really all I have! Believe me!!"
Combined with the bruises on his face, he looked exactly like an honest person who was not good at lying and was easy to bully.
How could you doubt his character? Where is the basic trust between people?
The next moment, he was blown away by a terrifying shockwave.
Holy crap!!!
They really don't make any sense at all!
Yu Shuang's voice rang out softly:
“This kid is not honest. Let’s continue to reason with him.”
"Bang bang bang..." A second time.
Eventually, all was quiet. Someone lay sprawled on the ground, his trembling hand raised.
"I surrender... I'll hand over whatever amount you have..."
There's no way around it; when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.
Even if one's heart is filled with grief and indignation, and one harbors the greatest resentment, one must keep it hidden until one has absolute power.
Before this, who would have thought that we could be bullied like this by a string of data?
If I'd known this NPC was hard to fool, I wouldn't have tried to be clever...
Damn Baicaotang!
Damn NPCs!
You just wait!
When I rise to power, I will raze this place to the ground!
"To resist stubbornly is an even greater crime, punishable by 2000 taels!"
Su Zheng: "..."
I... you bastard!
What can we do? What can we do to resist? We can only accept our fate.
This time, he didn't try anything funny. Filled with resentment, he took out another money bag and poured out all his savings from the past few days.
They also found several banknotes in the other places where the money was hidden.
At most, it's only a thousand taels, which is still half of the two thousand taels of silver that need to be paid.
"I swear, that's all I have." He said this with genuine sincerity.
The disciples and the outsiders who gradually arrived to watch the spectacle nodded in agreement:
Yes, I can tell. After all, he even took out the silver notes hidden in the soles of his shoes.
You can smell that odor from a great distance.
Yu Shuang pointed to the sword on the other person's back and said in an unquestionable manner:
"If you have no money, then leave your sword behind. And the jade pendant around your neck, and the mirror that fell off earlier—leave them as collateral..."
"I'll redeem it whenever I have the money."
After saying this, he instructed his disciples to write down the accounts.
Su Zheng hurriedly covered his chest with both hands, looking accusing:
"How can this be? This is my life!"
Why were none of the others detained, but I have to pay collateral?! This is such a double standard! You should treat everyone equally!..."
He was furious with the NPCs' actions; these bastards were really bullying him!
Yu Shuang was too lazy to waste any more words and was about to instruct her subordinates to get things done when she suddenly spotted several handsome men and beautiful women stepping into the distance.
He vanished from his spot in a flash, arriving ten feet away to greet the others.
With a warm smile on his face, he gave off a friendly and approachable vibe from afar, a stark contrast to his previous unreasonable and bandit-like behavior.
The stark contrast in their attitudes left someone speechless.
These are the most outstanding disciples of Yunjian Manor, a prestigious and righteous sect in the martial arts world. The original owner of this body had been friends with their elders and they had been corresponding with each other.
When the handsome men and beautiful women saw Yu Shuang arrive, they greeted her respectfully. After exchanging pleasantries, they actually took out their money and started paying for the tickets.
Although after some pleasantries they didn't think this senior would make things difficult for them, they figured it was better to be more considerate to avoid trouble.
After all, the scene of someone putting up a stubborn resistance had left a deep impression on them.
Recently, various rumors about Baicaotang have been flying around.
The elders in the sect were old friends with this senior and were very interested in the matter, so they sent them to investigate.
They didn't believe it at first, because in their minds, Senior Yu was a meticulous and highly respected elder.
But upon arrival, they witnessed a truly entertaining spectacle.
Only then did I realize that the rumors were indeed true.
When Yu Shuang saw them taking out their money, she told them to put it away and issued an ultimatum.
"...You can come whenever you want in the future, without having to pay an entrance fee."
When several people inquired about the changes at Baicaotang, he simply made up an excuse to brush them off.
It's reasonable for Baicaotang to recoup some losses after so many years of operating at a loss, right?
Before long, the handsome men and beautiful women, filled with mixed feelings, were led away by the other disciples.
Su Zheng originally thought that Yu Shuang had seen a new unlucky guy arrive and went to mess with someone else.
The negative emotions have subsided a bit, and I'm looking forward to seeing what happens next.
Who knew those people were so perceptive? They took out their money without saying a word.
He was also somewhat disappointed that he didn't see what he wanted to see.
Then the group of people took the money back.
This means... I got a free pass??
Is this fair?
The entrance fee for outsiders is 100 taels of silver. Is that a new rule you set? You just break it like that?
Isn't this bullying honest people?
He felt extremely resentful, thinking about his savings and having to mortgage his treasure, he felt like he was being targeted.
The more I thought about it, the more indignant I became.
"That's not fair! They're outsiders too, why shouldn't they be paid according to the rules? So many people are watching, you can't be biased, can you?"
His statement immediately resonated with other outsiders who had paid the money.
Yes, isn't it stipulated that outsiders have to pay for admission? Why don't those few people have to?
Even if they are dissatisfied, they can only complain in a low voice.
Yu Shuang looked at Su Zheng, who had stirred up trouble, with a calm and collected expression, and said confidently:
"I'd love to. They're all so beautiful, they're a feast for the eyes. Are you even half as good-looking as them?"
Su Zheng's eyes widened: "...!"
How can you judge a book by its cover?
No personal attacks involved!!
What's the use of being good-looking? Once he grows up, he can take them all down with a single punch!
Holy crap!!
Someone was furious, but had to back down due to their limited power.
Suddenly, Yu Shuang said again:
"You, pay for their tickets too." He then turned to the disciple who was keeping accounts and instructed him, "Add a few more entries to their accounts."
"Yes," the disciple replied respectfully.
What?! He has to pay for this?!
Someone nearly fainted from anger. "...!"
