Chapter 216 Commission
The thugs in Xunfanglou are not only numerous, but also each of them has extraordinary skills and extraordinary strength.
In just a moment, they caught all of Zhuo Bufan's men with lightning speed.
"Mother Li, what do you mean?!" Zhuo Bufan was held down by two muscular thugs. His face was ashen and his eyes were filled with anger.
Since the relationship had already been torn apart, Mother Li naturally stopped pampering him: "Zhuo Bufan, although this is a place of fireworks, you have broken the rules again and again. Do you really think that I, Xunfanglou, is easy to mess with?"
"My uncle is from Tianhuang College..."
Mother Li sneered and interrupted him, "Zhuo You is Zhuo You, and you are you. Do you really think Zhuo You has so much time to care about your mess? Also, Zhuo You is just the elder in charge of Tianhuang Academy. How can you really think you are an elder if you are just an elder?"
Zhuo Bufan gritted his teeth secretly. These words pierced his heart and he didn't know how to refute them.
He turned his gaze to Shen Zhanglin, asking for help: "Lord City Lord, you see, they are simply committing treason, disregarding the law, and not taking you seriously!"
"I told you to get out a long time ago. Why didn't you listen?" Shen Zhanglin looked at him as if he were an ant, his eyes extremely cold. "Since you don't want this face, then I will naturally not care about you anymore."
He stood up and looked at the Xishi on the stage: "Miss Xishi's dance today was good, and the accompaniment was just right. I hope the next performance will be as exciting as today."
"Thank you, Lord City Lord, for your appreciation."
Shen Zhanglin nodded slightly and left with the people around him.
"Humph!"
After the others had gone far away, Zhuo Bufan snorted coldly. He hated Shen Zhanglin to death now.
Mother Li only then remembered Zhuo Bufan. She shouted, "What are you still standing there for? Throw them out now!"
"Let me go! You bunch of lowlifes!" Zhuo Bufan roared and kicked the thugs on both sides crazily. The two thugs walked to the door with expressionless faces and threw Zhuo Bufan out of Xunfanglou.
Zhuo Bufan was so angry that he was about to fall. His eyes were full of viciousness and cruelty: "I tell you, if you offend me, you will definitely regret it!"
Unfortunately, the only responses he got were the guards descending from the sky and the heavy sound of Xunfang Tower's door closing.
Silence finally returned to Xunfang Tower, and the crowd dispersed as the farce came to an end.
"What did you just give him?" Xi Shi's faint voice suddenly sounded, scaring Bai Si Nan.
"A poison that is not fatal but torturous. But sister Xishi, how did you find out that I poisoned you?"
Bai Sinan did not hide this from her, but she was very careful when she poisoned her, so it should be impossible for anyone to discover it...
"Your little tricks can't escape my eyes, but others shouldn't be able to find out, so you don't have to be afraid. And..." She frowned and looked at the moon outside the window, sighing slightly: "Don't be so smart next time, that kind of song shouldn't appear in this kind of occasion."
Bai Sinan nodded, thinking about something.
*
Perhaps because of Xishi's attitude towards her, Mother Li seldom arranged for her to do anything, which made Bai Sinan suspect that Xishi was the master behind the scenes of Xunfang Tower.
But all this is not important to her. What is important is that Bai Sinan is very free now. Every day he either hides in the room to practice, or wanders around Xunfang Tower to gather information.
During this period, she finally understood the situation of this medium-sized continent.
The Xingxuan Continent is divided into five major cities and twelve minor cities. The five major cities are: the main city, Tianxing City, Xuanye City, the Imperial Capital, and Dan City. The main city is the center of the largest power, and the other four cities are distributed in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and northeast. The twelve minor cities are distributed between the cities. Their strength and power are relatively weak and they are dependent on the five major cities.
In Tianxing City where she is now, the three largest forces are: City Lord's Mansion, Xingye Academy and Killing Palace.
The place that Bai Sinan was most interested in was the Killing Hall.
Like her Dark Tower, the Hall of Death is also an intelligence killer organization. They have their own intelligence network and information channels, and can easily collect any information they want to find out.
What they are best at is collecting all kinds of rare treasures. It is said that the Shabo Palace has a special black market, and almost everything you want can be found in the black market. Even if it is not available, you can ask the Shabo Palace to help you find it.
"Hiding in the house to practice again?"
I don't know when Xi Shi appeared in Bai Si Nan's room, sitting elegantly on a chair, "I thought your poison had no effect, but I didn't expect that Zhuo Bufan suddenly got an incurable disease today and was looking for an alchemist everywhere."
Bai Si Nan exhaled a breath of foul air, slowly opened his eyes and smiled: "If I don't practice, I will have to hide in Xunfang Tower forever. I still have a lot of things to do. And, Sister Xi Shi, don't worry, my poison cannot be cured by ordinary alchemists."
During this time, the two of them had become completely familiar with each other, and Bai Sinan naturally told her about her identity as a low-class mainlander.
"If you want to find someone, you can go to the Killing Hall."
"Well, I know, but I can't go out now..." Bai Sinan sighed, and suddenly her eyes lit up as she thought of something: "Sister Xishi, why don't you tell Mother Li to let me go out for a day?"
"Why do you think Mother Li will listen to me?"
"Sister is a courtesan in the play. She is beautiful and can make money. Of course, Mother Li will listen to you." Bai Sinan smiled brightly.
Xi Shi looked at her with some amusement: "What kind of weird logic is this? Never mind, I'll help you talk and send two more people to protect you."
"Hehe, sister Xishi is the best~" Bai Sinan jumped up from the bed, happily wanting to give Xishi a warm hug.
Xi Shi was startled by the sudden action and quickly stood up from the chair and took a few steps back: "I, I'll go and talk to Mother Li for you now, remember to come back early." Before she finished her words, she left in a hurry.
Bai Sinan stood there blankly, wondering: Is she that scary? Or are all beauties like icebergs who don't like to be touched?
Thinking of this, Bai Sinan couldn't help but shook his head.
The work was done very efficiently. In less than an incense stick of time, Bai Sinan got Mother Li's permission to go out. Although there were two thugs from Xunfanglou following him, they just followed from a distance and did not get in the way.
Bathed in the long-lost fresh air, Bai Sinan first rewarded himself with a big meal, and then went on a shopping spree on the way to the Killing Hall.
However, the prices of goods in the Middle Continent were staggeringly high, and her small treasury was emptied by one-tenth.
However, she also gained new information: the currency system of the middle continent is composed of two currencies - spirit stones and spirit crystals, and the value of 100,000 spirit stones is equivalent to one spirit crystal. In other words, spirit stones are not worth anything on this continent.
"Oh, it looks like the small treasury is going to be completely emptied." Bai Sinan has already imagined himself spending money like water in the Killing Hall.
But the reality is...
"Two missing persons commissions, a total of 2 million spirit stones."
?
Just two million spirit stones? She had clearly heard that the commission fee of the Sha Horror Hall was shockingly high, but now the price was too affordable, wasn't it?
"Are you... sure?" There was a hint of disbelief in Bai Sinan's voice.
"Yes."
Hearing the other party's affirmative answer, Bai Sinan's eyes lit up instantly: "Then can I add one more person?"
The little boy opposite twitched his lips, and said with some heartache: "Of course, you can..."
Fearing that he would go back on his word, Bai Sinan rushed to the person who made the commission list and described the appearance of Xiaoying in detail.
She was originally worried that she didn't have enough spirit stones, so she had to temporarily give up Xiaoying and go look for Fengwu and Jiang Huaian first. Unexpectedly, a commission only required one million spirit stones, so she could look for Xiaoying as well.
As for why she didn't look for Yan Qianjue directly, she was worried about his safety. She knew nothing about the internal situation of the Hall of Death. Once Yan Qianjue's whereabouts were exposed, he would likely be hunted down by the Demon Slayer. As long as she found Xiaoying, she could find Yan Qianjue.
