C699 The Scheme of the Ghost King
Thinking about this, Zheng Kai's expression finally became better. He nodded with a smile and said:
"If that's the case, then I'll have to trouble you. Thank you."
Zhong Kui hastily waved his hand and laughed.
"Boss Zheng Kai, aren't you acting a little out of place now?" It's my honor to be able to work for you. "
Zhong Kui stretched out his hand in front of Zheng Kai as he spoke. His palms faced upwards as his four fingers curled up gently, as if he was reminding Zheng Kai of something.
"Then Boss Zheng Kai, can I trouble you to give me another ten thousand Heaven Realm Coin. I will take them to buy that item."
Zhong Kui chuckled as he looked at Zheng Kai's dazed expression. He stretched out his hand and scratched his head as he whispered.
Zheng Kai frowned slightly when he saw Zhong Kui's actions. Then, he suddenly seemed to have thought of something and said with a shocked expression,
"Zhong Kui, didn't I give you five thousand Heaven Realm Coin before this? Why do you still want more? "
As he said that, Zheng Kai suddenly understood why Zhong Kui would reveal an inexplicable smile when he heard that he'd decided to buy the item back.
Zhong Kui was planning to use this opportunity to strike his bamboo pole …
Zhong Kui hurriedly shook his head, revealing an extremely innocent expression. His fierce face trembled as he said,
"Boss Zheng Kai, I want the Heaven Realm Coin completely to buy my item. Although the five thousand Heaven Realm Coin you gave me was not a small number, it would be embarrassing to buy back my item … "
After hearing this, Zheng Kai had a new label on Zhong Kui in his heart.
The impression Zhong Kui gave Zheng Kai before, aside from the occasional unreliable one, didn't seem to have any negative meanings.
However, when Zheng Kai saw Zhong Kui, he couldn't help cursing in his heart:
"Moneybags, gamblers, liars!"
However, right now, Zhong Kui was of great importance to him, so Zheng Kai couldn't possibly express everything that he was thinking in his heart.
Zheng Kai looked at Zhong Kui suspiciously as he muttered,
"You just said, your precious prop only sold for a thousand Heaven Realm Coin. Now that we bought it, it should at least be worth two thousand Heaven Realm Coin, right?! "
A flustered expression appeared on Zhong Kui's face as he heard this. Cold sweat dripped down from his wretched and ugly face.
"This …"
Zhong Kui was at a loss for words when faced with Zheng Kai's question. He took half a step back and raised his hand to wipe off the cold sweat on his forehead as he spoke.
Zheng Kai didn't give Zhong Kui a chance to explain.
When Zhong Kui was half a step back, Zheng Kai took three steps forward and looked into Zhong Kui's panicked eyes. Zheng Kai said,
"However, I gave you five thousand Heaven Realm Coin. And now you tell me, five thousand Heaven Realm Coin are still in your pockets? Aren't you just teasing me? "
"My treasure is still pretty good, so it's normal for the price to increase!"
Zhong Kui muttered in embarrassment and anger when he heard that Zheng Kai had exposed his thoughts without any hesitation.
"Come on! Just tell me, what is your treasure, and who bought it? Who was selling it now? I'll buy it myself, so you don't need to worry about it. "
Zheng Kai shook his head in disappointment as he looked at Zhong Kui, who had turned angry from embarrassment, and said.
After hearing Zheng Kai's angry roar, Zhong Kui's expression changed from one of anger and embarrassment to one of slight embarrassment.0
"This... "Alright, alright …"
Zhong Kui pondered for a long time. He could only sigh helplessly. Like Zheng Kai, he also revealed a disappointed expression as he mumbled to himself.
Zheng Kai couldn't help but shake his head as he looked at Zhong Kui, who seemed to have suffered a huge loss. His opinion of Zhong Kui became even worse.
"Since you have such a thought, then I have nothing else to say."
Looking at Zheng Kai's resolute eyes, Zhong Kui, who originally wanted to persuade Zheng Kai to give it some more thought, could only swallow the words that were just at the tip of his tongue.
Zhong Kui's facial expression was no longer obvious as he spoke in a rather cold tone.
Zheng Kai shook his head as he looked at Zhong Kui's reaction, which had changed so quickly. Zheng Kai smiled bitterly and shook his head. In the end, he decided not to offend Zhong Kui anymore.
Zheng Kai cupped his fists and respectfully said to Zhong Kui:
Zhong Kui, if that's the case, then I'll have to trouble you to tell me the name of your item.
Zhong Kui shrugged his shoulders, revealing an indifferent expression. He muttered in disdain,
"Who's selling? "I don't know either. Since you've decided to solve it yourself, you shouldn't trouble me with this problem, right?"
After hearing Zhong Kui's extremely irresponsible words, Zheng Kai's smile, which he barely managed to reveal, instantly stiffened at the corner of his mouth.
"Damn, now is not the time!" "Once the matter with Meng Yao is settled, I'll deal with you properly."
Zheng Kai took a deep breath as he looked at Zhong Kui, who had an arrogant expression on his face.
Although there was a huge difference between Zhong Kui and Zheng Kai in their cultivation.
However, the rules of this world were not entirely based on cultivation.
Although Zhong Kui was furious at Zheng Kai for exposing his intentions, he could only show his displeasure on his face. In reality, he did not dare to touch Zheng Kai.
On the other hand, Zheng Kai had many methods to punish Zhong Kui if Zheng Kai was really pushed too far.
The best way was for Zheng Kai to directly break the promise he made to give the Spirit Auspicious Flower to Queen Mother of the West every month.
If that was the case, Zhong Kui, who was arrogant and despotic in front of Zheng Kai, would definitely be sent back to the Heaven Realm dungeon.
Thinking of this, Zheng Kai felt better.
Then, Zheng Kai continued with a smile and asked with a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant:
"It doesn't matter who the seller is. Zhong Kui, you should at least tell me the name of the treasure, right?"
Zhong Kui looked at Zheng Kai's good-natured smile and his neither servile nor overbearing attitude. He thought about his earlier condescending attitude and suddenly smiled embarrassedly.
"The name of the item is actually E Bead. It is a small ball that is like black glass. When you hold it in your hand, waves of cold energy will enter your heart. "
Zhong Kui couldn't put on airs when he saw Zheng Kai's gentle smile. He hurriedly told Zheng Kai about the image of E Bead in his mind.
"E Bead? Black glass balls? The cold is pressing!? "
As Zheng Kai listened to Zhong Kui's description, he suddenly felt that it was a little familiar.
"If you must say there are any other characteristics, it would be that there are some cloud patterns on its body, so it would be quite nice to look at."
