Chapter 2939 Selling oneself for money
The words of the pedestrian merchant were like a bolt from the blue, causing the surrounding area to become silent instantly.
“What are you talking about?
The guard of the treasure house widened his eyes, suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears, or that the traveling businessman in front of him was a lunatic.
Countless cultivators have been unable to find bounty targets, but they actually appear at the gate of the treasure house headquarters. It is incredible to think about it
Not only the guardian monks, but also the nearby cultivators who were watching basically had similar thoughts.
"I said, I am..."
Hearing this, the walking merchant was about to reveal his identity again, but unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth, he heard a loud shout from behind.
"Damn liar, you are actually cheating at the treasure house headquarters, let's see if I don't kill you!"
Then I saw a cold light flying out from the crowd, heading straight for The head of a traveling merchant.
The attack was fast and urgent, clearly aiming to kill it.
"Presumptuous!"
The guardian monk who had just been confirmed due to shock suddenly roared, but secretly regretted it in his heart.
I was a fool for not taking immediate and decisive measures to send this traveling businessman to a safe place.
Whether he is the target of a bounty or not, he has become a target of the enemy at this moment, and the situation has become extremely dangerous.
It's just that the cold light was extremely fast and the attack came extremely suddenly. It was obviously a step slower to intercept it at this moment.
The pedestrian merchant realized the danger, showed a hint of panic, and subconsciously put up a protective barrier.
The method that only monks can use made the onlookers more and more convinced that the identity of the traveling merchant was just a disguise.
At this moment, the enemy's sneak attack penetrated the barrier and went straight to the vital point of the traveling merchant. It was too late to dodge.
“My life is over!”
A hint of despair flashed through the traveling merchant's eyes.
I persisted to the last step, and was unexpectedly attacked by the enemy. As expected, God's fate is not as good as man's.
"Don't worry, you can't die."
A voice sounded, dispelling the boundless fear.
The traveling merchant was slightly startled, and then he was surprised to find that the enemy's weapon was hanging in front of him.
It was only an inch, and the cold was overwhelming.
"Poof!"
Just a soft sound was heard, and this valuable magic weapon suddenly exploded into dust on the ground.
The fatal crisis was resolved in an instant, almost too fast for people to react.
At this moment, not only the traveling merchant breathed a sigh of relief, but also the monks guarding the treasure house.
If the target of the bounty died at the door because of them, it would be absolutely inevitable for him to die.
In fact, the main reason is that I didn’t expect someone to be so crazy and dare to stand at the door of the treasure house to intercept the bounty target.
This is not only provoking the treasure house, but also provoking Tang Zhen. It is simply a crazy attempt to die!
"Catch the sneak attacker just now!"
The guardian monk of the treasure house roared and rushed towards the sneak attacker, only to find that the other party had a weird smile.
In the blink of an eye, a loud noise came.
“Boom!”
The monk failed in the assassination and chose to self-destruct, obviously not wanting to leave any clues.
The practitioners next to me were angry and anxious. In this situation, they were afraid that they would all be implicated.
Sure enough, in the next moment, countless monks flew out of the treasure house and surrounded the onlookers.
"No one should resist, just accept the examination obediently. If it is determined that there is nothing wrong with you, we will naturally let you go!
If anyone dares to resist, don't blame me for being rude!"
Treasure House The great elder had a gloomy expression on his face and looked around with vicious eyes.
Looking at him, he looked as if he wanted to eat people. Assassinating the suspected bounty target at the entrance of the treasure house's headquarters is simply the biggest provocation to the treasure house!
What will outsiders think if word gets out?
If the traveling merchant is really the target of a bounty and is attacked and killed secretly, it would be a disaster.
The Great Elder could not even imagine how furious Tang Zhen would be, and what kind of anger the treasure house would bear?
Fortunately, the worst did not happen. As soon as the accident happened, Tang Zhen had already taken action to save the traveling businessman.
The great elder turned around and saw the frightened businessman standing in front of Tang Zhen pretending to be calm.
"Is it you who has stored more than a dozen items in the treasure house, including these two beads?"
Tang Zhen looked at the traveling merchant and asked in a calm tone, waving his hand to show a scene.
Those were two spheres, flashing with different lustres. They were the two original spiritual treasures that Tang Zhen had found previously.
The traveling merchant nodded. This was indeed the item he stored. It was impossible to deny it.
“Did you use the pass token to lead the monks from Qianzhang Peak into the Tanxu Secret Realm, and then teleport away halfway?”
"That's right."
"The reason why you can avoid the pursuit of countless monks is because of the mask on your face. It can completely block your breath and turn you into an ordinary person with no flaws. "
There was a hint of surprise on the pedestrian merchant's face, but he nodded gently.
"Yes, Your Excellency."
"If you have enough patience, you can continue to hide it. Due to some special reasons, even if I personally take action, I cannot accurately lock it. Your location.
What was the reason that made you decide to give up hiding and take the initiative to appear in front of me? "
This is the most critical question. Tang Zhen hopes that the young monk in front of him can give him a satisfactory answer.
The traveling businessman smiled helplessly and replied to Tang Zhen : "I know what situation I am facing. Although I can hide it temporarily, it will be exposed sooner or later.
For the mountains of treasures, even if it takes a hundred years, there will definitely be monks who will continue to search for them.
But I can't wait that long, because I still have to improve my strength and avenge my master.
If I wait a hundred years, I will become a waste and there will no longer be any possibility of revenge! "
When the traveling merchant said this, his face was filled with a bitter smile. He had been under too much pressure during this period and was about to collapse completely.
The journey to the treasure house headquarters On the way, he hesitated more than once, but in the end he decided He chose to move on.
Because he knew in his heart that he had no way to retreat.
Qian Zhangfeng's pursuit made him panic all day long. The reward order issued by Tang Zhen, It's like the sky is falling.
"You must have your purpose in issuing the reward order, and it is probably related to my expedition harvest.
After all, other than that, a little monk like me is really not worthy of the attention of a big man like you.
Especially when I heard that this matter was related to the treasure house. Later, this speculation became more and more confirmed.
So I decided to take the initiative and provide you with the information you want. I no longer need other monks to search around.
I will send myself. Does coming here also mean that you can collect the treasures you are offering a reward for? ”
Looking at the traveling businessman with an expectant look on his face, Tang Zhen smiled and nodded.
"Yes, I can leave it to you."
Hearing this, the walking merchant bowed to Tang Zhen to thank him, and then continued to ask: "Please allow me to ask again, is it okay? To exchange my secrets with you?"
Tang Zhen shook his head, He said to the walking merchant: "Since you have received the reward, it means that you have handed yourself over to me, and then the roles have been reversed.
I exchanged the reward for you, and my life and death are under my control. In this case, do you think I will give you a chance to make conditions?
Or do you think that with your own abilities, you can keep secrets in front of me? "
"That means that since I can't get the rewarded treasure, I can't keep my secret either? "
Taking a deep breath, the traveling merchant asked Tang Zhen.
"The treasure with the reward is yours and no one can take it away, but whether you can protect it or not is your own question.
Answer the information I want truthfully, and I will never embarrass you. This is my promise to you. ”
