Play Speak
"Okay, Miss Ling, I will do whatever you say. I will immediately tell my subordinates to make the arrangements. Don't worry, I will keep an eye on it myself." As Mu Yuanjun spoke, his mood had calmed down. He was finally able to face Ling'er calmly.
"Okay, then I'll wait and see."
Mu Yuanjun took out the storage ring and went out. Fu Ling'er was meditating and practicing. It was not until the evening that Xiao Zi and Ling You came back, and they also dragged someone back with them.
"Sister Ling, we were delayed for a while and just came back. As a result, when we walked to the backyard door, I caught a glimpse of this guy sneaking outside the courtyard wall. His behavior was very obscene. I knew he was definitely not a good person, so I brought him in." Xiao Zi dragged the man in front of Fu Ling'er.
This man was tall and thin with an ordinary appearance. His pair of rolling eyes scanned the surroundings unnoticeably, and finally looked at Fu Ling'er with a look of grievance.
Because the wall of Fengmeiyuan is next to the street, there are many people coming and going. If he was caught by two people, his behavior must be suspicious, so he was smuggled in by the two people.
"Girl, it's unfair. I was just passing by. I don't know what's wrong with this guy. He insisted on accusing me of doing something bad. Girl, I feel so wronged. I was just walking on the street. Who did I offend?" The man knelt on the ground, holding his head in his hands for fear of being beaten. He looked pitiful, with a lot of grievances but nowhere to speak, trying to get away with it.
Fu Ling'er remained silent, but a sharp look from her instantly shut the man up. He didn't know why, but those eyes made his disguise seem exposed.
For a long while, the silence in the air made the tense atmosphere tainted with a sense of danger. The imposing aura was so terrifying that the man at this moment felt as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast.
Fu Ling'er broke the silence, opened her red lips and said,
"Willing to tell the truth?"
"………Miss…Miss, my little one…"
"You only have one chance to tell the truth." Fu Ling'er lowered her eyes and picked at her fingernails. Her tone was light but full of murderous intent. She continued, "I can see that you are not a professional killer. So, tell me, why are you targeting Wanbao Pavilion?" Fu Ling'er's intimidating aura made the man's heart skip a beat.
Should he tell the truth? If he doesn't, he will die, right? Then is his death worthwhile?
One hundred gold coins? As if his life was worth more.
The man knew how to make choices. He weighed the pros and cons and made a decision. He rolled his eyes and said,
"Girl, spare me. I'll tell you everything. My name is Xiao Sanzi. I've been hanging around the streets of Jiayan City since I was a kid. I usually like to get some gossip. Then I make a living by selling these gossips. Just yesterday, someone from Xuanbao Pavilion found me and asked me to find out the news from Wanbao Pavilion.
Especially to find out if there have been any men in black in Wanbao Pavilion recently, or if any strangers have come in and out. I think these little things should not be difficult for me. So, I took this task, and I have been keeping an eye on Wanbao Pavilion yesterday and today. I just found out that you have entered Wanbao Pavilion and have not come out yet, so I want to find out who you are? That's why I was wandering outside the courtyard wall," the man said without any hesitation, and told everything.
It has been a long time since I have seen such a sensible person, which made Fu Ling'er less murderous towards him.
Since he is so obedient, it is not impossible not to kill him.
"Are you telling the truth?"
"Yes, girl," Xiao Sanzi looked straight into Fu Ling'er's eyes without dodging. Facing the strong Fu Ling'er, even though his body was shaking uncontrollably, he still looked at Fu Ling'er steadily.
At this moment, his behavior completely made Fu Linger give up her desire to kill him. As her mind changed, the low pressure around her also increased.
"Then why is Xuanbao Pavilion like this? Do you know? If your answer is true, not only will I not kill you, but I will also reward you. Do you understand?"
"Thank you, young lady," Xiao Sanzi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He really thought he was going to die just now. Fortunately, the girl withdrew the pressure from her body, allowing his trembling body to relax.
It seems that this girl is not as vicious as she looks.
"A few days ago, some brothers saw people from Xuanbao Pavilion investigating the details of Wanbao Pavilion. Xuanbao Pavilion was attacked some time ago, and they seemed to suspect Wanbao Pavilion. That's why they sent people to investigate secretly, but it seems that they returned empty-handed in the end. That's why Xuanbao Pavilion set its sights on me, thinking that maybe I can provide some gossip." Xiao Sanzi didn't lie, and he didn't dare to lie. His experience in the beggar world for so many years has taught him to read people's expressions and to humble himself. He knows when to act. He can vaguely feel that the fight between Xuanbao Pavilion and Wanbao Pavilion is about to move from the dark to the open. Who will win is still unknown?
However, the struggle between big forces had nothing to do with people at the bottom like them. He was happy to watch the fire from the other side of the river, which also broadened his horizons. After all, such struggles between big forces were not common.
Fu Ling'er thought about it for a while, and figured out the key points, and roughly knew what was going on. She was very curious about how Uncle Mu could do it without being traced, and even without revealing any traces.
Then he looked at Xiao Sanzi, thinking that this boy was also a smart one and knew that the only way to survive was to tell the truth.
"Well, I accept your answer. Go ahead. I won't kill you today. But you also need to know what to say and what not to say about the Wanbao Pavilion. I hope you are as smart as ever. Lingyou gave him ten gold coins and sent him away."
"Thank you for not killing me, young lady. I understand." The third child kowtowed several times, and Lingyou lifted his neck up again.
"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense, let's go," Lingyou dragged the person to the wall outside the yard, which was the place where Xiao Sanzi had scouted before. Lingyou put the person down,
"Here are ten gold coins for you. Remember, watch your mouth. I'll be keeping an eye on you." Then he threw the man out from the two-meter-high wall.
"Bang... Ouch!" Xiao Sanzi covered his mouth fiercely, fearing that the noise here would attract the attention of someone with ulterior motives. Fortunately, it was already evening, and there were only a few pedestrians on the street. They were all rushing home and did not notice anything unusual here. Xiao Sanzi clenched the gold coins in one hand, patted the dust on the hem of his clothes with the other hand, and then walked away as if nothing had happened.
"Xiao Zi, tell Uncle Mu what happened just now so that he can understand what happened."
"Okay, Sister Ling, I'll go right away."
Days passed one by one, and in just three days, Wanbao Pavilion uncovered the secrets of Jiayan City. Within less than half a month, Jiayan City was already boiling with excitement, and the lively scene was no less than the opening of the Qiankun Auction House.
