Chapter 364: Can you be the master of those hundred or so dead souls?
After several days of preparation, the lobby of the inn, which had been specially cleaned up and purchased land, was still crowded.
Amidst the crowd, Chen Anzhu, dressed in a white dress with only a peach wood hairpin on her head, appeared at the door.
Chen Anzhu watched quietly from the side for a while, and accurately found Ling Chu, who was relatively capable of making the decision.
Ling Chu mistakenly thought she was just selling land, so she gave him a polite smile and said slowly, "If you have land to sell, just queue up over there. As long as you bring the title deed and the name of the owner matches, it will be fine."
Shen Anzhu snorted in an ambiguous tone, "You have no say in the land I want to sell."
"Where is your master? Would you be willing to introduce him to me?"
Ling Chu glanced at her with an unclear expression, but the smile on his face didn't fade at all. He turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation: "This way, please."
"Please sit down for a moment. I'll go and inform you."
Chen Anzhu followed the shop assistant Lingchu called to sit in the inner room. Lingchu quickly went upstairs: "Young Master, the boss."
Sang Zhixia was pulled by Xu Yu to play chess, and both of them had a small pile of copper coins in their hands.
Sang Zhixia had very little left, but Xu Yu obviously had a lot more.
Sang Zhixia was staring at the chess game on the table with a clear outcome, not daring to be distracted. He didn't even look up when Ling Chu came in.
Xu Yu played with the chess piece in his hand and said nonchalantly, "What's going on?"
Ling Chu repeated what Shen Anzhu had said, and then added in a low voice, "I paid attention and asked, and the man said his last name was Shen, and he came specifically to discuss business with the boss."
"Shen?"
Sang Zhixia finally diverted some attention from the chess game and asked in surprise, "Shen, and she's a girl?"
"yes."
Ling Chu had learned from the lesson of being deceived before and said very cautiously: "I checked it out, and I can't see any trace of disguise on her body. I think it's her real face."
Her surname is Chen, and she is a female.
He came in his true identity and said he was looking for Sang Zhixia as soon as he entered the door.
Sang Zhixia suddenly thought of something and looked at Xu Yu with a complicated look: "Chen Anzhu is a woman?"
The bandit leader who caused unrest and panic in Shu was actually a woman?
Xu Yu was not surprised by this. He smiled and said, "Where are the people?"
"Waiting in the private room downstairs."
"Then let her wait for now."
Xu Yu reached out and held down Sang Zhixia, who was about to get up, and said slowly, "What's the rush?"
"Everyone is here. They won't leave until they achieve their goal. It's not too late to leave after this game is over."
Xu Yu sent Ling Chu away with a look of great interest on his face.
Sang Zhixia seemed very bored.
Sang Zhixia pulled her hand away with a bitter face, muttering unhappily, "It's obvious at first glance that I've lost. What else is there to bet on?"
"If you want to play, do it yourself. I won't play with you anymore."
Sang Zhixia was not good at playing chess. At home, he could only play a few moves with Xu Mingyang and Xu Yanran, and they had won and lost against each other. He had no chance of winning against a chess veteran like Xu Yu.
She was originally forced by Xu Yu to come and accompany him.
Sang Zhixia threw the chess piece away, clearly indicating that she didn't want to play anymore. Xu Yu couldn't help laughing when he saw this.
"Zhizhi, is there anyone else who can play like this?"
Sang Zhixia was a little angry: "I won't lose the house or the land, so what's wrong with you letting me do it?"
Xu Yu suppressed a smile and raised his eyebrows: "Zhizhi, I gave you six moves."
"Then why not give a few more hands?"
Sang Zhixia reached out and swished on the chessboard, making a clear gesture: "Take this, this, and this, and then I'll consider finishing this game with you."
"Otherwise, you can just play by yourself."
Xu Yu had no idea how to deal with Sang Zhixia's cheating. He clenched his fist and coughed a few times to suppress his laughter. Then, as Sang Zhixia asked, he picked up the chess pieces she pointed to at once.
"Is this okay?"
Sang Zhixia was satisfied, sat down and said, "Then it's okay if it's over."
Xu Yu smiled as he watched Sang Zhixia carefully make her move, then said slowly, "Zhizhi, I'll let you do it, but don't forget the bet we agreed on."
"If I lose this time, then tonight I'll have to..."
"Xu Yu!"
Sang Zhixia glared at Xu Yu angrily, her ears burning uncontrollably: "Can't you just control your mouth a little?!"
"How dare you say such things in broad daylight? Do you have any shame?! Do you have any shame?!"
Xu Yu didn't care about being scolded. He narrowed his eyes, placed a piece, and said with a smile: "The saints said that food and sex are human nature. People have five senses and six desires. Life is interesting."
"I'm just being honest, what's wrong?"
Xu Yu was in a good mood and wanted to talk as soon as he opened his mouth.
Sang Zhixia couldn't stand it any longer and stuffed a piece of snack into his mouth that could choke him to death: "Even food can't stop your mouth!"
"Just shut up! I might not lose!"
Xu Yu drank two cups of tea with a piece of dessert, and the last piece was placed, and the victory and defeat were decided.
Sang Zhixia had a dark face and didn't want to talk. He couldn't figure out where he started to lose.
Xu Yu smiled and leaned forward to peck at the tip of Sang Zhixia's wrinkled nose. He said with a smile: "I accept the loss. Remember to hand over the money tonight."
"Wait until you pay all the tuition fees, and I'll tell you what's wrong tomorrow."
Xu Yu moved closer, wanting to get closer, but Sang Zhixia, feeling upset, pushed him away: "Go away, I'm so annoying."
"I'm going to see who's looking for me. Do you want to come?"
Xu Yu sat back down, boneless, and slowly picked up the chess pieces on the board. He said lazily, "I came to see you. Why should I bother you?"
Sang Zhixia was sure that he was not going, so she changed her clothes and prepared to go out.
Xu Yu stopped her before she left the house: "Zhizhi, don't forget what I told you last night."
Chen Anzhu must have something to ask for when he goes down the mountain today.
Since you are here to ask for help, how can you not show some real sincerity?
A dark light flashed across Sang Zhixia's eyes, and she turned her back to Xu Yu and waved her hand, "I understand."
"Wash yourself clean and wait inside."
Sang Zhixia left Xu Yu, who was laughing non-stop, and strode out. When she reached the private room where Chen Anzhu was, she slowed down her pace.
"What can we say after we go in?"
The guard whispered, "He just asked for a cup of tea. Apart from that, he said nothing and made no movement at all."
Are you so patient?
A hint of surprise flashed across Sang Zhixia's eyes. She motioned the people following her to retreat and raised her hand to knock on the door. "Can I come in?"
Inside the room, Shen Anzhu turned around unexpectedly when he heard the voice, and subconsciously answered "come in". He watched the person who came in stand up by supporting himself on the table.
"Who are you?"
"Sangzhixia."
Sang Zhixia briefly explained her identity, sat down and said, "The person you are looking for is me."
Chen Anzhu seemed to be hesitant to believe that the person he had been waiting for for such a long time would be a woman who looked much younger than himself. After a pause, he said, "Are you the master of these people?"
"You really have the final say?"
Sang Zhixia was amused by her unconcealed surprise. She raised her eyebrows and said subtly, "If you can make the decision on matters concerning the Sun family, then of course I can make the decision here too."
Shen Anzhu's expression changed obviously.
Sang Zhixia was about to laugh: "Then let's talk about it. The Sun family has been destroyed for more than ten years. Can you be the master of those hundreds of dead souls?"
