Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 566: Unaffordable Price

Gu Xun feels that it is very impolite to laugh at other people's physical disabilities, so it is best not to do it, although celebrations should not be counted...

It’s not good after all!
  Holding back his smile, Gu Xun forced a serious look on his face and asked;
  "Except for being in the Cold Palace in South Korea, I probably have nothing to do with the Armored Sect. Do you two have anything to do with me?"

Mei Sanniang was anxious and wanted to answer first, but was stopped by Dianqing.

He pressed Mei Sanniang and said in a dull voice:
  "Sanniang and I came here to find out the whereabouts of a person."

"Luo Wang Tian Zi is the best, Xuan Jian!"

When he mentioned Xuanjian, Gu Xun suddenly realized, "Oh! So it's because of your master's death."

"Huh?" Yan Lingji asked suspiciously, not knowing the details.

Gu Xun turned his head and gave her a brief explanation, "Their master, the former master of the Armored Sect, died at the hands of Xuanjian, and don't Xuanjian and I have some relationship."

Yan Lingji's doubts were satisfied and she nodded without interrupting.

Dianqing continued, "Since the Imperial Master knows about this past, please feel free to inform me."

Gu Xun grinned and asked playfully:

"Now that you have found me, you should know that my relationship with Xuan Jian is not hostile. Regardless of personal friendship or official status, I have no reason to tell his whereabouts to a Wei soldier... Are you two?"

What's more, because of Gu Xun, Xuan Jian has not been labeled as a traitor in the net, and is still a member of the Qin State.

Jianqing shook his head, "I know that."

"so?"

"Master Imperial Master, can you give me a price for Xuan Jian's whereabouts? How much is it?"

"Ha!" Gu Xun couldn't help laughing, "So you were planning to spend money..."

"This suits my taste very well. I love money, but it's a pity that Xuanjian belongs to me..."

"Is the Imperial Master unwilling?" Dianqing Weng asked in a loud voice.

"No!" Gu Xun shook his head decisively, "It's very expensive!"

"It's too expensive that you can't afford it."

No need to ask, Gu Xun can be sure that the Pijia Sect is definitely poorer than the peasant family, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to squeeze out ten thousand gold.

Mei Sanniang finally couldn't help it this time and spoke out;
  "You're asking for a price. How do you know we can't afford it if you don't tell us?"

"Okay." Gu Xun spread his hands. It's no wonder that the poor guy wants to find excitement. "One price, one hundred thousand gold."

"..."

"..."

The poor guy was silent...

The two of them thought that asking for their whereabouts would cost them a few thousand or ten thousand gold at most, but they didn't expect the price to be so high... I'm not asking you to kill your beloved relatives and friends, right? ?
  Mei Sanniang, who had a bad temper, couldn't help but asked, "One hundred thousand gold! You have no intention of telling us Xuan Jian's whereabouts."

Gu Xun looked very innocent, "You asked me to offer the price, and I also said that you can't afford it."

"One hundred thousand gold, no negotiation, as long as you pay, I will tell you Xuanjian's whereabouts immediately, and I will guarantee lifetime after-sales service. Whenever you come to ask me, I will tell you Xuanjian's real-time whereabouts, and I will tell you the real-time whereabouts of Xuanjian."

Then there was another moment of silence.

Lifetime after-sales service package... What’s the use? Even if they went to rob King Wei, it would be difficult for them to collect 100,000 gold. Seeing that both of them were silent, Gu Xun poured himself a cup of tea with a smile, sipping it and said:
  "Can't afford it?"

"Don't think I'm trying to embarrass you. I'm actually doing this for your own good. After all, we have met once before."

Mei Sanniang stared at him without saying a word. It was a one-on-one relationship... Do you mean you broke my legs as soon as they met?
  "Even if other factors are put aside, you succeed in getting the whereabouts of Xuan Jian from me, so what?" Gu Xun pretended not to see Mei Sanniang's sharp eyes and talked to himself.

"Stop talking, it won't be of much use." Gu Xun first pointed at Mei Sanniang, then turned to Dianqing, "As for you, you are indeed much stronger, but it's not enough."

"You can't kill him. Of course, it's basically impossible for him to defeat you."

"If you want to kill him, you have to use a large number of people to block all his paths just like the farmer did to me not long ago. But as a killer and thief who has been in the world for more than ten years, he cannot let himself fall into such a dangerous situation. situation."

"So, just focus on the present and don't think about revenge."

In response to Gu Xunqing's sincere and down-to-earth advice, which seemed a bit like standing up and talking without hurting your back, Mei Sanniang slapped the table;
  "you put……"

Before the curse word could come out, he was stopped by the ceremony.

"Master Imperial Master is very practical, but Master's revenge must be avenged!" Although Dianqing stopped Mei Sanniang Biao from swearing, he also did not agree with Gu Xun's sarcastic remarks.

"Okay." Gu Xun didn't care about this and saw the guest off directly. "There's nothing else. Can you two treat me... or stay and have something to eat together?"

Of course, the two of them would not leave anything to eat, and Mei Sanniang couldn't help but give Gu Xun a hard look.

But Dianqing did not leave directly with Mei Sanniang, but said again:
  "Besides money, do you have any other needs, Master Imperial Master?"

There are many other needs. For example, I need two Nine-Death Resurrection Grass, but your armored door must also have one... Gu Xun glanced at the ceremony, thought for a moment, and responded:
  "I wonder if you two know about Lord Xinling Wei Wuji's affairs, or is there any relevant record within the Armored Sect?"

Xinling Lord Wei Wuji!

Upon hearing this name. Mei Sanniang, who originally had an angry look on her face, looked stagnant.

The ceremony's eyes, which were covered behind linen, could not help but twitch slightly.

"Why do you ask this, Master Imperial Master?"

"That's none of your business. Just answer yes or no."

Dianqing was silent for a moment, and then replied, "Lord Xinxin Lingjun has been living in the fiefdom in recent years and has rarely interfered with Daliang's affairs. After the master passed away, the contact between our armored sect and him was basically cut off, so I waited. I don’t know, and there is no information recorded in the door.”

"Humph, really?" Gu Xun didn't bother to worry about the so-called truth and falsehood, and didn't want to say that he was thrown away. He waved his hand to indicate that the two of them could leave.

This time the ceremony did not try to persuade Gu Xun anymore, he got up and left directly with Mei Sanniang.

Then the waiters in the restaurant started serving food, probably just waiting for them to finish chatting.

Yan Lingji smiled while eating, "These two people are really interesting. They know that you and Xuan Jian are related, but they actually come to you to ask about Xuan Jian's whereabouts."

Gu Xun curled his lips and responded disapprovingly, "It's just the blindness of someone obsessed with revenge."

No matter how small the possibility is, try it. Although it is stupid, it is also true.

Yan Lingji rolled her eyes and asked again:
  "Then... Shopkeeper, if it were you and you had such an enemy that is almost impossible to kill, would you give up?"

Gu Xun smiled slightly, "Of course not, revenge is what must be avenged!"

He was just making sarcastic remarks. If it were him, no matter whether he could kill him or not, he wouldn't be able to make the other person feel better, and he would still be annoying the other person to death.
