"Hehe, a seventeen or eighteen year old brat carrying a precious artifact without even knowing about it, yet still dares to come out and show off. This is Poverty-stricken People's best opportunity! The heavens have been treating Poverty-stricken People well! " Looking at the young man in front of him, Zhuang Xuzi thought.
Zhuang Xuzi's suddenly changed gaze did not hold back in the slightest as it completely fell into Ye Qian's eyes. This caused Ye Qian, who wanted to play around, to suddenly have a strong sense of killing intent arise in his heart.
It had to be said that Zhuang Xuzi was courting death.
Although greed was indeed human nature, it was clear that Zhuang Xuzi's greed had chosen the wrong person.
But this couldn't be blamed on Zhuang Xuzi, after all, most people choose this kind of appearance to judge a person's appearance. Seeing how Ye Qian was "young and ignorant", wanting to bully and take back his own magical equipment, and at the same time taking possession of the other party's precious artifact, Zhuang Xuzi's plan was naturally smart enough.
It was a pity that Zhuang Xuzi had encountered a demon like Ye Qian. This sudden Daoist Priest from the Mao Mountain probably did not know that his fate was almost over.
After making up his mind, Zhuang Xuzi's aged face changed once again, and became 'amiable'. Or perhaps, in Ye Qian's eyes, this was hypocrisy.
First, he pretended to be shocked, but Zhuang Xuzi then respectfully and properly called Ye Qian the chief inspector, and reported his name: "Lifeless Buddha, Poverty-stricken People Zhuang Xuzi, is the direct disciple of the Mao Mountain Sect Leader. This time, following Sect Leader's orders, he went down the mountain to catch a demon. He didn't expect that he would actually meet his little friend once. It's been a great pleasure. "
The voice paused for a bit, then Zhuang Xuzi continued: "I wonder which sect little friend is under, and if you are a member of my Dao Sect?"
It was obvious that although Zhuang Xuzi was greedy in his heart for this unknown young man who carried such a treasure in his possession, he still appeared to be cautious and prudent.
After all, perhaps this young man in front of him was born with a Heaven Dao Hidden Sect, and wasn't someone he could afford to offend. By that time, even if the fox didn't come, it would only provoke his coquettish body. Thus, he had to first figure out the other party's movements and then make a move. This was the only way to be sure of the outcome.
Regarding Zhuang Xuzi's plan, Ye Qian knew everything.
But at this time, Ye Qian pretended to be confused, as if he could not understand what Zhuang Xuzi was saying.
Ye Qian tilted his head, looked at Zhuang Xuzi, and laughed: "Hey, Taoist, this one doesn't know what Dao Sect you are talking about. Also, isn't Maoshan Faction something that only appears in dramas? You old Taoist, don't try to fool me. "Now that we're in the technological society, there are no longer any ancient sects in the East. This is simply bragging!"
At this moment, Ye Qian had an expression on his face like he was young and didn't have much knowledge, so he shouldn't lie to him.
Zhuang Xuzi on the other hand, had a strange look on his face as he looked at Ye Qian, "Eh, little friend calls himself this, how can you not know my Maoshan Faction?"
Ye Qian muttered with an "idiot" look: "So what if he claims to be calling himself 'This Seat', aren't those powerful bosses all claiming to be like that? This way, it would seem like the heavens are blowing up and there's something wrong with it! "
But he had to admit that Ye Qian's innocent look was well pretended, luckily Ye Qian had his back facing Ling Long, otherwise Ling Long would definitely spurt out his mouth from Ye Qian's words. However, Ling Long knew that when Ye Qian faked such an expression, there would definitely be people who would be unlucky later.
Ling Long's heart was filled with laughter, but Zhuang Xuzi completely believed what he just said. Not only that, he even looked as if the heavens were on his side.
"It seems like this kid is just a teenager who watched too many TV dramas!"
"Heh heh, no sect? Great, great. This young lad is simply here to send warmth to the Poverty-stricken People! " Zhuang Xuzi kept thinking.
Although he was laughing in his heart, Zhuang Xuzi still pretended to be shocked, and even pretended to say that he did not know what was going on.
"Tch, my friend, you aren't joking with Poverty-stricken People right? Since little friend doesn't know about Dao Sect, and also doesn't know about my Maoshan Faction, then where did you get that pearl from? "
It was clear that Zhuang Xuzi had his eyes on the Chaos Bead in Ye Qian's hands, but at the moment, Zhuang Xuzi couldn't speak too clearly, so he could only ask his in a half hidden manner.
Ye Qian rubbed the back of his head in feigned ignorance, and said: "Beads? Are you talking about something? "
As he spoke, Ye Qian took out a Chaos Bead from his chest and then said in puzzlement, "I picked up this thing while playing around by the sea. "What? Is this thing really powerful?"
Ye Qian pretended to be suspicious.
But Zhuang Xuzi quickly waved his hand, "No, no. It's just that this pearl in little friend's hands has accepted our weapons. I wonder if little friend would be able to return our weapons generously? "
Ye Qian pretended to be confused and looked up and down at the Chaos Bead in his hand. Then, he stared directly at Zhuang Xuzi.
"I say, old Taoist, are you joking with me? Although this bead can let out light at night, it's only the size of a palm. How can your weapons be hidden inside?"
In the face of Ye Qian's "silly" retort, Zhuang Xuzi was overjoyed. It was obvious that the current Ye Qian was a youth who knew nothing about cultivation and knew nothing about magic tools. This was heavenly good news to Zhuang Xuzi.2
Zhuang Xuzi took a step forward, and said with a smile: "Poverty-stricken People is an outsider, there is no way he would lie to little friend. If you don't like this, how about you lend the pearl in your hand to Poverty-stricken People and he can bring it back to you after you retrieve his weapon? "
Ye Qian pretended to be confused, and looked at Zhuang Xuzi with distrust: "Old Daoist, are you trying to trick me into holding the pearl in my hand? Although I haven't studied much, but I also know that such a big pearl can still shine at night, but is it worth a lot of money? "
"This …" Zhuang Xuzi never thought that the young man in front of him would actually be this cautious.
But regarding the magical equipment in Ye Qian's hands, Zhuang Xuzi was determined to get it. Zhuang Xuzi thought for a while, then took out a gold ingot from his body.
"Since little friend doesn't believe in Poverty-stricken People, how about we do an exchange? Poverty-stricken People has a golden brick that is worth a lot of money. I will pawn it in the hands of little friend, little friend, you can rest assured now! "
Seeing the shiny golden brick, Ye Qian immediately revealed a "greedy" expression: "Golden brick?"
As he exclaimed in shock, Ye Qian snatched the golden brick from Zhuang Xuzi's hands without hesitation, and then, gently bit into it. "Old Taoist, it seems like you are quite rich?"
"Little friend, you take this golden brick as well. Have you given the pearl in your hand to Poverty-stricken People?" Zhuang Xuzi said as a smile blossomed on his face.
Ye Qian, on the other hand, continued to pretend as if he didn't know anything, and said repeatedly, "Good, good, good, good!"
But without waiting for Ye Qian to make a move, with a wave of his finger, the Chaos Bead landed in Zhuang Xuzi's palm.
After obtaining the Chaos Bead, Zhuang Xuzi's expression changed greatly, becoming sinister. His smile was no different from those greedy little people.
"What a treasure, what a treasure!" Zhuang Xuzi lamented, and his two junior brothers also came forward.
However, just as Zhuang Xuzi was about to channel his Spirit Qi into the Chaos Bead, the entire Chaos Bead suddenly exploded with a gold light, catching everyone off guard.
At this moment, Ye Qian was standing by the side with a mischievous smile on his face as he watched, and said grumpily in his heart: Hmph, how could a mere mortal control my Chaos Bead, you will have to pay a price for your greed.
