Chapter 89: Dead City
So be it, if the price is low, it's low. Tu Yu is about to blockade Yunmengze, a few pieces of life-buying money are not worth Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe going back on his word.
Seeing Lan Shiwen took out 5 copper coins from his arms and handed them to Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe, saying: "Pay half first. After you finish stating your reasoning process for the Wealth Wu Tong rule, then take the remaining 5."
"Okay." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe nodded and took the 5 scattered coins from Seeing Lan Shiwen's hand.
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe currently holds: 14 copper coins
"The God of Wealth's rule is not just simply spending money to buy life, but 'buying and selling'."
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe said while threading the 5 scattered coins Seeing Lan Shiwen handed him onto the red string:
"When a person meets the God of Wealth, the Wealth Wu Tong rule will forcibly start a transaction between the person and the god. This transaction cannot be avoided, cannot be regretted, cannot be owed... From the moment you meet the God of Wealth, you only have two choices."
"Buy, or sell."
Buy and sell what? Life, of course.
"The initial price of the transaction is 1. The price of 1 human life is 1 copper coin."
You can use 1 copper coin to buy 1 life from the God of Wealth, or you can sell 1 life to the God of Wealth in exchange for 1 copper coin.
You can choose either, but you cannot choose not to. The God of Wealth is forced to buy and sell.
"The price of the second transaction is 2. The price of 1 human life is 2 copper coins."
Shi Yurou and Ji Yunying, the two siblings, met the God of Wealth for the second time, and each paid 2 copper coins to buy 1 life from the God of Wealth. Added to the 1 life bought with 1 copper coin spent during the first meeting, and the 1 life they were born with, each of them held 3 lives.
Of course, Ji Yunying was just killed by Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe once, and he only has 2 lives left now.
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe said, silently casting his gaze toward the direction of Yunmengze in the distance. He could feel that the God of Wealth was moving toward this side.
He is here to complete the transaction that has not yet ended.
"I met the God of Wealth before, and He took away 2 of my lives at once. Don't ask me where these two lives came from, I won't tell you."
"At that time, it was my 1st meeting with the God of Wealth, and it was my 1st transaction with Him."
"Next, I will meet the God of Wealth. If I get 2 copper coins, it means the initial price of selling life is 1, and 1 life is exchanged for 1 copper coin."
"If I only get 1 copper coin, it means the initial price of selling life is 0.5, and 2 lives are exchanged for 1 copper coin."
After speaking, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe looked at Seeing Lan Shiwen: "Pay the final payment, I will go to meet the God of Wealth immediately."
"Good luck." Seeing Lan Shiwen nodded and took out the remaining 5 copper coins from his arms. Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe is going to face Wealth Wu Tong directly, so he naturally has nothing to say.
The sky in the distance has darkened, the sun is setting, the beautiful evening glow has lost its bright color, and the "door" is about to close.
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe was about to take the remaining 5 copper coins from Seeing Lan Shiwen and set off to meet the God of Wealth, but at this moment, Seeing Lan Shiwen's face changed. The originally calm and composed expression instantly became extremely poor, as if he had just been extremely frightened. His mouth opened slightly, and he almost let out a shrill scream.
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe asked with a frown. The fear on Seeing Lan Shiwen's face only appeared for a moment before it was restrained. Ascenders' emotional management ability is very strong, otherwise they would not be able to crack the rules and complete self-ascension.
And Seeing Lan Shiwen, who was as calm as he was, just now had a clear loss of expression management. One can imagine how great the stimulation he received was.
"Nothing, just remembered some bad things." Seeing Lan Shiwen's face returned to calm, and he said with some difficulty: "I'm really sorry, Master Yeyao, I can't give you the copper coins. I didn't mean to default on the debt, really... I'm really sorry."
"But I beg you, I request you, Master Yeyao, hand over all the copper coins on you to me. I guarantee that I will definitely pay you back double in the future... Please. I use my reputation as a guarantee."
Other Ascenders show themselves with ghost codenames. Only Seeing Lan Shiwen goes online with his real name. His credit and reputation in the Ascender circle are very good. If it were Yu Zi Qian himself here, he would probably agree.
But Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe didn't know Seeing Lan Shiwen's reputation. He wanted to take away the precious life-buying money with an empty-handed white wolf using an illusory reputation? He only wanted to ask one sentence:
—Who the hell are you?
"Give me a reason to believe you." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe shook his head: "And, settle the final payment before talking about other things. This is the most basic spirit of contract."
Seeing Lan Shiwen closed his eyes and took a deep breath: "Okay."
He handed the remaining 5 copper coins to Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe.
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe currently holds: 14 copper coins
"The God of Wealth is coming, let's change to a place to talk." Seeing Lan Shiwen said, walking downstairs, and said to the three people on the balcony while walking: "Follow me, my car is parked downstairs."
Seeing Lan Shiwen's car is a flashy purple "Caiwei GS", commonly known as a grocery shopping car, or a woman's car. Small and cute body, bright colors, and soft interior, very popular with girls. In fact, this car is indeed his girlfriend's.

Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe sat in the passenger seat, Shi Yurou and Ji Yunying sat in the back row together, Seeing Lan Shiwen held the steering wheel and fastened his seat belt, and said loudly: "Sit tight, I'll send you into the city."
Saying that, he stepped on the accelerator to the end. Although the design language of this car, Caiwei, is feminine, the hardware quality is not inferior at all, and the starting speed is very fast. Seeing Lan Shiwen stepped on the accelerator and directly crashed the fence of the main gate of Chuyun Shanzhuang, rushed out of the forest area, and sped all the way along the lake road.
"How about it, haven't seen anyone speeding in a woman's car, right?" Seeing Lan Shiwen said jokingly.
However, Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe felt that Seeing Lan Shiwen was not a person who liked to joke. He thought he wanted to downplay his previous momentary fear through this way.
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe thought for a while and said lightly: "Hmm... I've sped a Wuling Hongguang on the national highway."
"Then you're awesome." Seeing Lan Shiwen gave him a thumbs up, and then said:
"Generally speaking, Ascenders will not easily reveal the rules they have mastered to others. But the situation is special now, I can only use this last resort. If the God of Wealth is allowed to continue wandering, irreparable things will happen. Nearly 1/3 of the nearly 10 million population in Yun Ducheng may not survive... So I want to tell you now, the rule I have mastered can, in a sense, achieve—predicting the future."
"Hmm..." Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe turned his head to look at the siblings in the back seat, frowning slightly, thinking, is this kind of thing something that can be said in front of mortals?
Well, forget it, it's not his rule anyway.
Seeing Seeing Ning Zhe raised his hand, signaling him to continue: "So what is the future you predicted?"
Seeing Lan Shiwen bit his lip, his expression heavy: "I saw the God of Wealth wandering in Yun Ducheng. His wealth kept rolling like a snowball with each transaction, until it expanded to a certain extent, enough to buy the lives of tens of millions of people in the entire Yun Ducheng."
Yun Ducheng became a dead city.
