Chapter 74

Jin Yichuan’s expression changed as he looked toward the distant street, wondering what he was thinking.

Brothers, thirteenth update!! I’m almost a dried husk!! Please send some flowers for encouragement!!!

And it was just that one look.

Shen Lian, who was beside him, had already noticed.

And after Lu Jianxing took his men back to escort the prisoners.

Only Shen Lian and Jin Yichuan remained on the empty street.

Hesitating for a moment.

Jin Yichuan called out to Shen Lian.

"Hey... Second Brother! I... I recently..."

He stammered with an unnatural expression.

Shen Lian patted Jin Yichuan’s shoulder.

He took some loose silver from his belt and handed it to Jin Yichuan.

"Second Brother knows, Yichuan, this can't go on like this."

Then Shen Lian didn't say much more, patted Jin Yichuan, and walked down the street without looking back.

Clearly.

Jin Yichuan was very short on money, and Shen Lian knew Jin Yichuan was in trouble!

Isn't this exactly what was mentioned in the synopsis?

Jin Yichuan has been blackmailed by his senior?!

Didn't expect Jin Yichuan to be so embarrassed... having to ask his second brother for money!

And the subsequent development was even more within the synopsis.

Shen Lian went to the music bureau to find Zhou Miaotong, but unfortunately, she didn't seem to have any feelings for him.

The two just sat several meters apart drinking tea.

It could also be seen that Zhou Miaotong had some lingering hostility toward Shen Lian, for reasons unknown.

Although Shen Lian knew it, he still insisted on redeeming Zhou Miaotong, but unfortunately, he was short on funds!

Thus, it can be seen that all three brothers were poor.

The eldest lacked money to bribe his way up, leading to a delay in promotion.

The second lacked money to redeem the woman he loved.

The third was constantly blackmailed by his senior, even having to borrow money from Shen Lian.

【Wow, it seems this Ding Xiu wants quite a lot.... Jin Yichuan is actually that short on money?】

【I think it also has to do with the low salary of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!】

【At Jin Yichuan’s rank, he’d make at most ten or twenty taels of silver a year...】

【But the Embroidered Uniform Guard is truly majestic! This Flying Fish Robe is so handsome!】

【At that time, the Embroidered Uniform Guard wasn't handsome, but hated by everyone! No one dared to get close to them because they did things like wiping out entire families! Everyone had blood on their hands!】

【But even so, Jin Yichuan is still being blackmailed by his senior??】

【Wait, that whistle just now, could it be Ding Xiu?!】

As countless viewers began to deduce the plot and analyze the characters.

Zhang Laomou also leisurely returned to the judge’s seat.

The half-hour before the film started was his time to oversee the overall situation.

But the AI was so perfect that even an old hand like him couldn't be of much use; he just glanced at the current settings and direction, analyzed the characters for the protagonist, and returned to the judge’s seat.

As for the ending, Zhang Laomou was completely in the dark; it was meant to be a self-determined plot by the characters, and even the AI hadn't decided on the subsequent plot direction yet.

Then, seeing the barrage of comments surging.

Zhang Laomou also started answering the questions in the comments calmly.

"Who is the protagonist?"

"It must be Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing!"

"According to my speculation, Shen Lian is actually the only male lead."

"And Lu Jianxing is more like a tool to push the plot, and a key figure to promote the growth of other characters!"

"Ding Xiu?"

"You don't need to worry about this character; Ding Xiu is no different from a bit-part player."

"Anyway, the current plot of Ding Xiu is just emptying Jin Yichuan’s pockets."

And while he was speaking.

On the screen.

Jin Yichuan listened to the guidance of the whistle.

His body was light, moving quickly through the alleyways! Leaping over walls!

At the intersection.

A whistle came.

Jin Yichuan stopped in his tracks, turned his head, and shouted.

"Senior."

In front of Jin Yichuan, behind a tree trunk.

A figure carrying a huge Miao saber, as tall as a person, slowly walked out, most of the blade wrapped in a cloth bag.

And the person was in casual ronin attire, hair tied into a ponytail.

The expression on his face was full of casualness and unruliness; it was Su Chen!

While eating a bun in his hand, he took the time to look up at Jin Yichuan.

"What are you looking at?"

"Afraid your friends in the service will see me?"

While speaking.

Su Chen sneered and swallowed the food in his mouth.

He pointed into the distance.

"Don't worry! They've already gone far away!"

"Senior..."

Jin Yichuan was not in the mood to joke with Su Chen.

With a straight face, he took out the money he had just borrowed from Shen Lian from his belt with a low tone.

And as soon as Su Chen saw Jin Yichuan’s action.

He threw the half-eaten bun into the distance and wiped his hands on his clothes.

Clearly, compared to the bun, he was looking forward to getting Jin Yichuan’s money.

Who would eat these cheap, filling things when they have money?

And in every move.

The unbridled ronin temperament on Su Chen was fully displayed!

It established the image of a greedy person who only cares about money to the fullest!

The fourteenth update today!! Brothers, please send some flowers!!!

"Senior..."

"Take the silver and go..."

Jin Yichuan’s words were full of low spirits and distance.

And for Su Chen, this bit of distance meant nothing, as long as there was money.

He reached out and picked up the loose silver one by one, sighing as he did so.

"Even a fly is meat..."

Clearly, the handful of loose silver in Jin Yichuan’s palm couldn't satisfy Su Chen’s appetite.

And Su Chen’s words made Jin Yichuan take a deep breath and close his eyes.

Regarding his senior’s constant blackmail and extortion.

Jin Yichuan had reached his limit.

His meager salary couldn't support this constant demand!

With suppressed anger in his tone, Jin Yichuan looked up and said.

"This is the last time, don't come looking for me again!"

After saying this.

Jin Yichuan turned and left.

But after only two steps.

Su Chen’s voice came from behind.

"Do you really think that just because you put on this Flying Fish Robe, you’re an official?"

"A thief is a thief!"

While speaking.

Su Chen didn't even look at Jin Yichuan.

He had the personality of this junior perfectly grasped!

And the secret in Su Chen’s mouth.

Aroused the intense curiosity of countless viewers!

What kind of secret could make Jin Yichuan willingly be blackmailed for so long! And even drag his brothers into it!

If it were an ordinary secret, Jin Yichuan, as an Embroidered Uniform Guard with two brothers to help, logically shouldn't fear Su Chen!

But clearly, the characters in the drama couldn't reveal it at this moment!

And looking at Zhang Laomou.

The latter was also stammering and couldn't say anything.

A second ago, he was saying that Ding Xiu was just a bit-part character and there was no need to worry about his plot.

Now he was slapped in the face!

It’s only been a few minutes since the start, and a bit-part character has so much plot! And the personality is so distinct and unbridled!

No matter how you look at it... it doesn't look like a bit-part.

Carrying the Miao saber casually on his shoulder.

Su Chen looked ahead, raised his eyebrows, not worried at all that Jin Yichuan would leave, and said to himself.

"This secret of yours... I'll eat off it for a lifetime!"

Instantly.

After saying this.

Jin Yichuan turned around angrily and walked back, pursing his lips and staring at Su Chen.

As if he would draw his blade and explode in the next second!

But the latter raised his head even more arrogantly.

"Not convinced?"

Facing Su Chen’s rhetorical question.

Jin Yichuan didn't say much, turned his gaze slightly, suppressing his anger.

"I'll give you three days."

"Go and get me a hundred taels of silver."

After thinking for a bit, Su Chen picked a number and said it without any bottom line.

His tone didn't consider at all whether Jin Yichuan had the ability to do it.

It made countless viewers burn with anger.

"A hundred taels?!"

"Yes, a hundred taels."

Sure enough, facing Su Chen’s sky-high price.

Jin Yichuan was stunned, then looked at the other party, emphasizing his tone.

"My annual salary is only twenty taels! Where am I supposed to get a hundred taels for you?!"

"Uh..."

Su Chen looked up at the sky, pretending to think for a few seconds.

Then he looked at Jin Yichuan very seriously and suggested.

"Go sell your ass!"

"There are so many high-ranking officials in the capital who have a taste for the dragon-yang!"

"Such a good build!"

While speaking, Su Chen looked Jin Yichuan up and down and said somewhat exaggeratedly.

"A hundred taels of silver... is very easy!"

But although Su Chen’s expression was very punchable.

Countless viewers actually thought about it seriously...

If Jin Yichuan went to sell his ass... maybe he really could get it!

On the screen.

Jin Yichuan had already gripped the hilt of the short blade at his waist.

Traces of killing intent flowed from the bottom of his eyes.

"Hahahaha..."

Su Chen turned and left, laughing, as if he hadn't seen Jin Yichuan’s action.

Even whistling in a lighthearted mood.

Seeing this.

Countless viewers couldn't help but complain!

【This guy is too much of a bastard!!】

【He doesn't care at all if his junior can afford it!!】

【It makes me angry!!】

【But that line about selling his ass really made me laugh... I really can't hold it in...】

【As expected of Su Chen... acting like a hooligan is so vivid! This is a hooligan!!】

【He acted so well I want to beat Su Chen!!】

【What secret does Jin Yichuan have that’s being held over him?! And he wants to eat off it for a lifetime!】

【Is he going to make a move on Su Chen?!】

【I think Jin Yichuan will definitely turn dark! Then kill his senior! And completely get rid of the blackmail!】

The fifteenth update today!!! Brothers, please send some flowers!!!
