"One hundred taels of gold." Someone immediately looked over.
This is no small sum.
Lu Xiaoyao had been winning money at the casino by consistently being a winner, and had been behaving himself lately.
The people at the casino always thought she was a neglected, somewhat chivalrous little girl.
Although occasionally some people's fighting cocks die unexpectedly at home, people will only assume that it was done by those shifty-looking, sleazy people.
I would never have imagined it was this pretty little girl.
Naturally, they felt that if Lu Xiaoyao could do it, what couldn't they do?
"Doctor, how do I look?" A burly man with muscles walked over.
He deliberately stomped his feet heavily to show his strength.
Therefore, the table next to him was slightly shaken by his footsteps.
Gu Mu wore a mask and remained expressionless.
"That works too," he said casually.
People only saw his ghost mask and his slightly indifferent tone.
"???" Lu Xiaoyao.
I thought you couldn't live without me.
A sense of impending doom, like a hundred taels of gold about to fly away, made Lu Xiaoyao look displeased.
He then raised his foot and kicked the burly man away.
No one expected that this little girl would have such explosive power.
The burly man flew five meters away and crashed heavily into the wall.
"Stop being picky, just choose me!" Lu Xiaoyao said to Gu Mu, raising her head.
She took the long whip out of her sleeve and placed it on the table.
Anyone who dares to compete with her for business will have to ask her whip if she'll allow it.
Gu Mu admired Lu Xiaoyao's willingness to go to any lengths for money.
When she realized she couldn't steal his money bag, she used the pretext of helping a friend to shield him from harm, thus indirectly obtaining Gu Mu's money bag.
Those who are obsessed with money and spendthrifts are the ones who are easy to take advantage of.
"Let's talk in private." Seeing that she had intimidated all sorts of shady characters in the casino, Lu Xiaoyao withdrew her whip and gave Gu Mu a sweet smile.
They left the casino unharmed.
No one dared to block their way.
Putting aside the fact that Gu Mu's ghost mask and black robe look was somewhat creepy, the fact that he dared to say "hundred taels of gold" in full view of everyone, especially in a casino, a place teeming with all sorts of people, was quite something.
That means there are only three possibilities.
One possibility is that he is a fool, a fool who can possess a hundred taels of gold.
Another type of person is not afraid of being robbed, nor is he afraid of being coveted.
The last one is that he has no money.
However, because Gu Mu had experienced many battles and his spear had been stained with the souls of many dead, he had unknowingly developed a murderous aura.
This temperament sets him apart from ordinary people who have always lived a stable life, occasionally bickering over trivial matters, but who have never taken a life.
In fact, people with a ruthless temperament are not uncommon in the capital.
But none of them were easy to bully.
Anyone who dares to provoke this kind of person will at best suffer a humiliating defeat, and at worst, their entire family will be wiped out.
They looked at Gu Mu, who was wearing a ghost mask, and without a doubt, he was the second type.
There are generally more sensible ordinary people than fools, but there are always one or two madmen who don't know their place.
Suddenly, a desperate man with a scar on his face walked over and blocked Gu Mu's path: "A hundred taels of gold? Hand it over to me!"
He was holding a machete.
For him, life was not important.
What matters is taking the money to drink at pubs, pick up girls at brothels, and gamble at casinos.
Throughout his life, he survived many near-death experiences, while most of his friends died. Aside from the scars covering his body, he remained alive and well.
but……
As soon as the scarred man stood in front of Gu Mu, a whip mark appeared on his other cheek, perfectly symmetrical to his previous scar.
Lu Xiaoyao has been involved in the underworld since childhood; what kind of place hasn't he tamed?
A second long whip lashed out, locking the scarred man in place. Then, the hand swung in a half-circle in the air, tossing the scarred man into the air before he slammed heavily to the ground.
Finally, he stepped on the face of the scarred man, who was still dazed from the fall and couldn't get up for a while, and walked over.
The movements were fluid and seamless. Although the scarred man wanted to steal Gu Mu's money, it wasn't worth Gu Mu's effort at all.
Gu Mu's plan was indeed correct.
If used properly, Lu Xiaoyao will become a sharp sword for him, invincible and capable of killing wherever it is pointed.
He certainly didn't lack loyal followers willing to die for him.
However, he lacked obedient and capable individuals who could help him expand his territory in the martial arts world, create chaos, and allow him to rise to power amidst the chaos.
Lu Xiaoyao put away his whip again and flicked the large "poor" character on his gray-white linen clothes.
"A hundred taels of gold... Oh no, Doctor, please come with me." Lu Xiaoyao smiled sweetly.
In Lu Xiaoyao's courtyard.
The information the assassin had gathered was indeed correct.
Because in her yard, there were dried radishes drying in the sun, and by the well, there were also washed red radishes.
Several roosters with their throats cut lay in the corner, one of which had its feathers shaved off and seemed to be about to be cooked and eaten by the owner of the yard.
Lu Xiaoyao really knows how to cook.
No wonder, people in the martial arts world, especially those who are constantly being hunted down.
Some life skills are essential for them.
Lu Xiaoyao deeply understands the principle that "the way to a man's heart is through his stomach."
She even mastered the art of "winning a man's heart through his stomach" with her genius.
Lu Xiaoyao went to the small kitchen and busied herself for a while.
They served a five-dish meal with a delicious aroma and flavor.
