Chapter 273 A thief? Need more money!

"Mr. Zhou, I really didn't expect to see your master in this place. It really surprised Chu."

Seeing Zhou Ziyu again, Chu Tang couldn't help but sigh.

At this time, the sun was setting in the west, illuminating the small inn in the town golden.

And when Zhou Ziyu walked into the inn under the red clouds, he was dressed in brocade clothes, gorgeous and noble, just like a high-ranking prince suddenly walking into a dilapidated slum, so dazzling and strange.

It's a pity that only a few people in Chu Tang can appreciate his style.

There are no outsiders in the entire inn!

When the innkeeper persuaded all the guests who had previously stayed at the hotel to leave, Chu Tang realized that even this small town inn was Zhou Ziyu's property!

This can be seen from the respectful look on the shopkeeper's face when he saw Zhou Ziyu nodding and bowing.

And when he made such a gesture, Zhou Ziyu, Miss Lin'er and the others seemed to take it for granted.

Chu Tang admitted that he had made a mistake, but he also admired the shopkeeper's acting skills. He had been here for three days and he really didn't see that he knew Miss Lin'er.

Before Zhou Ziyu came, the two of them were like strangers, not disturbing each other. The shopkeeper was the shopkeeper and the guests were the guests.

As soon as Zhou Ziyu arrived, they immediately acted like servants meeting their masters, and they were servant brothers and sisters with a close relationship!

"What the hell, you're all the best actor. I owe you several Oscars!" Chu Tang complained in his heart, but smiled on his face.

Originally, he was strolling around the narrow courtyard of the inn after dinner, until Miss Lin'er came to him and said that their young master had arrived and asked him to meet him in the lobby.

When he reached the front, Zhou Ziyu was already sitting in the middle of the empty lobby, taking his time.

After the greetings, it was Chu Tang who expressed surprise.

Zhou Ziyu had a bright smile on his handsome face and said: "Zhou is also very surprised that Zhou will be able to meet Brother Chu soon."

Chu Tang raised his eyebrows. Did he change his name to Brother Chu so quickly?

You must know that when the two met before, Zhou Ziyu would politely call him Mr. Chu, and he would also call each other Mr. Zhou in a business-like manner.

Chu Tang's heart moved: "I'm in such a good mood. It seems like this guy has experienced the treasure map? Is it true?"

Chu Tang never doubted that Chen Suming would lie to him, but he could not guarantee that the picture was the treasure map of King Liang's treasure.

Even Chen Suming can't guarantee it!

She could only confirm that it was indeed the thing that her family had sacrificed dozens of lives for.

Glancing at Miss Lin'er who was waiting next to her, Chu Tang asked directly: "Mr. Zhou, have you seen that picture? Is it true?"

Zhou Ziyu smiled, nodded and said: "It is indeed true. Brother Chu is indispensable for getting this picture. Zhou will remember it in his heart. I will be grateful in the future."

He ordered the surrounding area to be cleared, and many people were guarding the area around the inn. There were only three of them in the entire lobby, so Zhou Ziyu didn't mind talking loudly about the treasure map.

When Chu Tang heard this, he hummed and said: "It's good if it's true. There's no need to thank you deeply. This is the agreement between Chu and Mr. Zhou. Chu is just fulfilling the agreement. As long as Chu can get the agreement in the end The thing will be done.”

Zhou Ziyu said seriously: "Zhou always keeps his promises and will never go back on what he promised."

Chu Tang chuckled, thinking that you might fulfill your promise if it is useful to you, but not necessarily if it is useless to you.

Thinking of this, Chu Tang's heart moved and he quickly said: "Mr. Zhou, in order to get this picture from the second lady of the Chen family, Chu promised her not to cause trouble to the Chen family from now on. Please be noble and let them go." Ma, so that Chu will not break his trust."

Zhou Ziyu was stunned for a while, not expecting that Chu Tang would mention this matter. He pondered for a moment and said: "Brother Chu is ours now. Since you promised it, Zhou should also abide by his promise. As long as the Chen family does not agree with How about we pester you and Zhou will never cause trouble for them?"

Chu Tang also heard the other party's words, but thought that at most he could only do this for the Chen family. Joining them without knowing what is good and wanting to deal with Zhou Ziyu would be asking for trouble and death. On the way.

If you do evil in heaven, you can still live; if you do evil on your own, you can't live!

At that point, even God can't save them.

Chu Tang also believed that with Chen Suming's intelligence, they would never do anything dangerous before they had absolute strength.

"Thank you Mr. Zhou for your support!" Chu Tang immediately thanked him.

Zhou Ziyu waved his hand and said: "Hey, if I want to thank you, it's Zhou who thanks Brother Chu. If you hadn't stepped in, I'm afraid this matter wouldn't have gone so smoothly. At this point, Zhou was really curious about how Brother Chu was doing. Who got this treasure map from the second lady of the Chen family? She actually keeps it with her at all times? "

Chu Tang was afraid that Zhou Ziyu would cause some trouble if he went deeper, so he had to tell some half-truths and half-falsehoods.

The real thing lies in the arrangements made by Chen Suming's father. For example, Baotu had already arrived in Qingcheng with the eldest lady of the Chen family as a dowry. All Chen Suming got was the secret of the matter and the key to unlock the scroll.

The fake part was that he concealed his promise to teach martial arts to the Chen family siblings, and it was impossible to involve Tao Ying.

Chu Tang also knows that many people in the martial arts world are now extremely interested in his martial arts skills - nonsense, martial arts that can allow a person under twenty years old to have the strength of the sixth realm will be very eye-catching wherever it is placed!

He couldn't be sure whether Zhou Ziyu was also interested in martial arts on him.

If the other party really has this intention, then Tao Ying, who has obtained so many martial arts secrets from him, will be in danger.

The children of the Chen family who have no strength are like children shopping with gold and silver in their arms. Everyone wants to take a bite out of them!

As for Chen Suming's reason for handing over the treasure map, Chu Tang said this: "At that time, Mr. Chu was good at talking and talking with reason, and moved with emotion. In the end, Miss Chen Er realized deeply that having the treasure map in her hand would only bring trouble to her. The harm will not bring her any benefit. It is not an exaggeration to say that it will bring a hundred harms but no benefit. Fortunately, she also understands the righteousness. Although she was reluctant to part with it, she finally took it out and gave it to Chu. "

Zhou Ziyu kept smiling on his face, nodded and said: "She is quite smart! For the sake of Brother Chu and her knowledge, let's let this matter go."

Chu Tang hummed and breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, he didn't know whether Zhou Ziyu believed it or not - he probably didn't believe it. After all, this explanation was a bit ridiculous, and Chu Tang himself didn't believe it.

But whether you believe it or not, he believed it anyway.

In the eyes of people like Zhou Ziyu, it doesn't matter whether things are true or not, what he wants is the result.

As a result, he got the treasure map, and he was so excited that he rushed here to meet Chu Tang in person.

"Mr. Chu, please have some tea." When Chu Tang was silent, Miss Lin'er made a cup of tea for her son, and then also brought a cup to Chu Tang.

Chu Tang thanked her and looked at her deeply.

This little girl is so extraordinary!

Chu Tang didn't have many opportunities to meet her in the past three days. He only knew that she went out early and came back late, obviously doing some shameful things.

Only when Zhou Ziyu came did she behave well in front of others.

After taking a sip of tea, Chu Tang put down the cup, looked at Zhou Ziyu and asked: "Miss Lin'er brought Chu here before, saying that she wanted Chu to complete the second thing, but when Chu asked her what was going on, she kept saying It’s self-evident. Now that Mr. Zhou is here, is it time for Chu to understand?”

Zhou Ziyu looked at Lin'er after hearing this and said, "You haven't said anything yet?"

Miss Lin'er said very nervously: "Knowing that the young master was coming, Lin'er took matters into her own hands and waited for the young master to come and explain it to Mr. Chu. Since he takes it seriously, it can be regarded as important."

Zhou Ziyu said displeasedly: "How could you make Brother Chu wait for three days? You should have made it clear a long time ago so that he could be mentally prepared."

"Young Master, please forgive me!" Miss Lin'er became even more nervous.

Chu Tang rolled his eyes in his heart and had to explain to Miss Lin'er. He kept asking Zhou Ziyu not to be angry, let alone to embarrass a maid.

"For the sake of Brother Chu interceding for you, I will spare you today!" Zhou Ziyu did not give Miss Lin'er a good look and snorted coldly.

Miss Lin'er said sadly that she didn't dare anymore, and then turned to thank Chu Tang.

Chu Tang said polite words, but in his heart he scolded his mother for being a traitor.

This pair of master and servant were with him in Yanliaozhai. They just told him if they didn't trust him. This was normal in order to keep the secret. But in the end, they passed the responsibility to a little maid, saying that the other party made their own decisions, which was so fake!

Secretly slandering, Chu Tang could only follow their words: "Master Zhou, now you can tell Chu, what is the second thing to do? Why are you here?"

Zhou Ziyu turned to Chu Tang, smiled and said, "Brother Chu has been here for three days, and there are people coming and going in the inn, so you didn't guess anything?"

This is true, Chu Tang is not dead, and no one has restrained his feet here for three days. He can move freely and walk in and out of the inn for a while. Even a blind man can hear some of the people around him.

He also found out that this small town is located fifty or sixty miles northwest of Qingcheng. It still belongs to Liangzhou and belongs to Le County of Chengjun. It is called Fengqi Town.

There are also mountains all around, one after another.

Although Fengqi Town is only a town, it is on the official road between Chengjun and Changjun, and the exchanges of people are very complicated, so it can be considered quite prosperous.

Not to mention anything else, there are four or five inns where you can stay in the town, which shows how prosperous this place is.

In addition, the people here are densely populated. In addition to the official road passing through it, it is also related to a martial arts sect.

Seven or eight miles west of Fengqi Town, there is a depression in which the Changhong Sword Sect, a well-known martial arts sect in Liangzhou, is located.

When he first heard about the Changhong Sword Sect, Chu Tang felt that it sounded familiar. After listening carefully to some of the sect's details, he remembered that after his duel with Xu Lingfeng from the Luoshen Valley, someone had made harsh words about wanting to compete with him, and that Isn't the sect from which he came from the Changhong Sword Sect?

Chu Tang, who has always been cautious, even asked Tao Ying for its details.

If Chu Tang remembers correctly, it seems that the founder of the sword sect claimed to have been taught by immortals, and later founded the sect with his flying rainbow sword technique, which became powerful in Liangzhou.

Among them, there are many masters of the upper three realms, which can be regarded as one of the best Liangzhou martial arts sects under the Luoshen Valley.

Fengqi Town is also one of the ways to this sect, so you can see disciples of this sect coming and going from time to time, and there are also many people who rely on this sect for a living.

Now when he heard Zhou Ziyu asked him to guess the target, the first thing that came to Chu Tang's mind was the words "Changhong Sword Sect".

"Changhong Sword Sect?" Chu Tang couldn't help but asked tentatively.

"Haha!" Zhou Ziyu clapped his hands and laughed, "Brother Chu is indeed a smart man. He can understand with just one point and hit the mark with just one guess!"

Chu Tang was greatly surprised and said: "Are you really here for the Changhong Sword Sect? Mr. Zhou, we don't bring people who play tricks on people like this! Chu just escaped from Luoshen Valley with his life, and he hasn't gotten rid of their threat yet. Wait, wait." Now you want Chu to provoke the Changhong Sword Sect, whose power is second only to Luoshen Valley?"

Zhou Ziyu's face stiffened for a moment and he said: "Changhong Sword Sect is far inferior to Luo Shen Valley. Brother Chu does not need to emulate other people's ambitions to destroy his own prestige."

Chu Tang's face turned cold: "The Changhong Sword Sect is even more difficult to mess with!"

Presumably in Luoshen Valley, Chu Tang was even more unwilling to conflict with the Changhong Sword Sect.

This is just because the disciples of Luoshen Valley seldom visit the world and do not leave the valley except for important matters. They spend most of their time practicing martial arts in seclusion in their own one-third of an acre of land.

It is true that Luoshen Valley is a holy land of martial arts, and its foundation, number of masters, and power far exceed that of the Changhong Sword Sect.

However, few people come to see them as saints, and their reputation is great. However, few people in the martial arts world have seen their power.

The Changhong Sword Sect is on the contrary. They seem to be very pushy. Their disciples often wander around the rivers and lakes and kill people with swords at every turn. In addition, their sword skills are really good and there are many masters. They have made a majestic appearance in the Liangzhou Wulin.

If you ask people in the Liangzhou arena, who is more terrifying, the Changhong Sword Sect, or the Luoshen Valley? Many people will be more worried about the disciples of the Changhong Sword Sect.

Chu Tang is no longer a ignorant person. After three days in this small town, he has figured out the Changhong Sword Sect's style of conduct. He has always been low-key, and of course he does not want to provoke such a high-profile opponent.

Seeing that Chu Tang was indeed angry, Zhou Ziyu quickly comforted him and said, "Brother Chu, don't worry, I won't ask you to confront the Changhong Sword Sect head-on. We will just steal one thing from their sect."

"Do you need Chu's Qinggong?" Chu Tang blurted out.

The other party wanted him to steal something from the Changhong Sword Sect!

Zhou Ziyu straightened his expression and said, "If you want to get that thing quietly, you have to take action from Brother Chu."

Chu Tang said angrily: "Chu is a policeman, but he has never been a thief!"

"Thief?" Zhou Ziyu looked unhappy, as if he had been stabbed in the foot.

"Mr. Chu, you are now wanted by the imperial court. Even Luoshen Valley has offered a reward for your head. It is not an exaggeration to say that everyone is shouting for beatings. You can only hide in hiding. What is the difference between you and a thief? You are not necessarily better than us. How much!" Miss Lin'er spoke out to defend her young master.

"Shut up!" Zhou Ziyu scolded Lin'er, telling her not to say anything.

Miss Lin'er said oh, but she rolled her eyes at Chu Tang angrily.

Chu Tang's face did not change and he said: "Although Chu is not upright, he is not reduced to being a thief. Mr. Chu, our previous agreement did not say that Chu would become a thief, let alone that he would become a thief." I provoke the Changhong Sword Sect, so... I have to pay more!"

"Huh?" Zhou Ziyu was stunned for a moment.

Chu Tang continued: "This matter is too dangerous and not worth it to Chu. After all, the bargaining chips from the previous transaction are not enough!"

Zhou Ziyu burst out laughing: "That's it...you should have told me earlier!"
