Chapter 1031: Where are the things?
"What did you say? Try saying what Chen Yu just said one more time." Lili was almost exploding with rage: "Do you believe that with one word from me, I can have Zhang Qiang kill you? Do you still want to walk out of Ji City alive?"
"Fine, call him and have him come. I want to see how he kills me." Chen Yu smiled.
Just at this moment, Zhang Qiang hurried over. He looked flustered and went straight to Chen Yu: "Chen Yu, where are the things bought from Zhou Lao yesterday?"
"Zhang Qiang, you're here. Quickly find someone to teach this brat a lesson; he bullied me." Lili held onto Zhang Qiang's arm and said indignantly: "And Zhang Yanxi, you can't let them off."
"What things?" Seeing Zhang Qiang's expression, Chen Yu knew something must have happened; this guy was a bit scared.
"That Buddha statue, and a Jade Ruyi... those two items you bought from Zhou Lao at the temple." Zhang Qiang asked nervously: "You didn't sell them, did you? I'll buy them back for double the price."
"Zhang Qiang, are you listening to me? He bullied me, are you a dead man?" Seeing Zhang Qiang ignoring her, Lili immediately felt she was being overlooked.
"Shut up, get lost." Zhang Qiang shoved Lili aside: "I'm asking about serious business right now, don't bother me, damn it."
Lili let out a scream and was thrown to the ground. She looked at Zhang Qiang with a pale face, feeling at a loss for a moment; she didn't know why Zhang Qiang was so furious.
"Lili, are you okay?" Zhang Yanxi hurriedly helped her up, but Lili shoved Zhang Yanxi away and stood up on her own.
"Chen Yu, I'll pay double for those things, no, triple, or you name the price yourself, I'll buy them back." Deep in Zhang Qiang's eyes, a trace of fear was revealed: "I'm even begging you, okay?"
"You couldn't buy these things back even for ten times the price." Chen Yu smiled slightly: "Things sold by Zhou Lao are always forced sales, but this time, after he sold them, wanting them back won't be so easy."
"Ten times?" Lili was shocked: "Zhang Qiang, what exactly are the things he bought? Do we need to spend fifty million to buy them back?"
"I can't come up with fifty million. Chen Yu, these things were specifically requested by Mr. Xu. He has now gone to Zhou Lao's place in person. I'm begging you, he needs to see these things within three hours. If he doesn't, many people will die." Zhang Qiang looked terrified.
"I might not sell them even for fifty million." Chen Yu smiled: "Zhang Qiang, weren't you very happy when you and Zhou Lao teamed up to scam me? Why do you want to go back on it now?"
"Chen Yu, I'm talking to you nicely, don't push your luck. You should know this place is Ji City. My master is a Witch Elder of the Yi Ethnic Group, and my grandmaster is even a Dharma Cultivator." The expression on Zhang Qiang's face turned vicious: "Hand over the items and we'll be fine. If you don't, don't blame me for being impolite."
"Zhang Qiang, stop bragging. If your grandmaster really were a Dharma Cultivator, would a mere Mr. Xu make you this afraid?" Chen Yu said coldly: "Save that kind of talk for showing off in front of girls, don't try to act tough in front of me."
"Chen Yu, hand over the items, otherwise you will die here." Lili also helped Zhang Qiang speak; after all, he was her boyfriend. Although Zhang Qiang was rough with her just now, that was a matter between them.
Outside, she still had to stand with Zhang Qiang against others.
"Oh, I'll die here?" Chen Yu raised his eyebrows and said with a chuckle: "Then I'd like to see how you make me die here."
"Fine, Chen Yu, just you wait. Even if I don't make a move, Mr. Xu won't let you off. Watch yourself." Seeing Chen Yu was unmoved by both soft and hard tactics, Zhang Qiang's face turned vicious.
"Fine, I'll wait." Chen Yu smiled: "Use whatever tricks you have."
"Chen Yu, didn't you come here to find things? Without Zhang Qiang, you won't be able to find your things. Quickly apologize to Zhang Qiang, otherwise you'll end up in a miserable state." Lili shouted.
"The things I want to find, I will find myself. I don't need his help. I can't do it without him? You underestimate me too much." Chen Yu sneered.
"Fine, just you wait." Zhang Qiang glared at Chen Yu viciously, then turned and left.
"Zhang Qiang, wait for me, Zhang Qiang." Lili also glared at the two of them with hatred and chased after him.
Still in that temple, the monks who originally looked fierce were now gathered together, their faces showing a trace of fear.
Inside the room, a middle-aged man wearing a long robe and holding a string of Buddhist Beads, looking refined and cultured, was pacing back and forth.
This middle-aged man was Mr. Xu. Although he looked delicate and handsome, like a scholar, no one dared to come within three meters of him.
His gaze was like an eagle's, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling. Although he didn't look like the type of person who was extremely vicious, he made people feel that he could take their life at any moment.
Xu Ruizhi, he possessed multiple nationalities and multiple identities. Here in the market, this was just a temporary foothold. He spent more than two hundred days a year wandering in war-torn areas and border regions.
The fierce-looking Zhou Lao was now standing to the side shivering, a trace of terror appearing on his originally fierce face.
There were only two of Zhou Lao's subordinates in the room. Zhou Lao looked at Mr. Xu tremblingly and said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Xu, I have already sent Qiangzi to find that brat. The items will definitely be brought back for you."
"Not important." Mr. Xu revealed a smile: "What I want to know is, the things unearthed at the foot of Liang Mountain, I requested that everything be sealed. Why are there several items here with you?"
"I, I..." Zhou Lao's face turned pale. After a long time, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "It was my greed; I kept a box of things."
"Kept them well, kept them well indeed." Mr. Xu nodded approvingly: "The most precious and important items are all in that box. Xiao Zhou, you have a good eye, heh heh."
"Mr. Xu, I really didn't do it on purpose. I will definitely be able to find these things back. Please, for the sake of me being your dog for so many years, let me off this once." Zhou Lao said in a panic.
"Xiao Zhou, other things are fine, really. You've taken quite a lot before, haven't you? I've never said anything." Mr. Xu walked up to Zhou Lao and patted Zhou Lao's head: "But the things this time are different, really different. These things are of vital importance to me."
"Bring them back, and everything is negotiable. If you can't bring them back, you know the consequences."
Although Mr. Xu had a smile on his face, his smile made people feel a chill down their spine.
"It will definitely be possible, it will definitely be brought back." Guangtou Qiang looked at Mr. Xu tremblingly, his face full of fear.
Just at this moment, Zhang Qiang hurried back. His expression was very ugly.
"Qiangzi, did you bring the things back?" Zhou Lao lunged forward as if grabbing a life-saving straw.
"Zhou Lao, that brat has a very stubborn mouth; the things were not returned." Zhang Qiang's expression was very ugly: "And I think Guangtou Qiang's death must have something to do with him. I'm planning to go back to the village now to find my master and have my master deal with him."
