"Haha, brother Duan, you see, if I save you, I will not only offend the four evil people, but also the Xixia Kingdom.
And by helping your whole family, it also helps the whole of Dali.
Should you repay me in some way?" Li Daoqiang patted Duan Yu on the shoulder and smiled calmly and confidently.
Duan Yu was stunned and looked at Li Daoqiang blankly.
This was the first time in so many years that he encountered such a scene.
Life-saving grace should be repaid.
But this, too... is too repaying a favor!
Duan Yu likes reading and Buddhism, has a kind and upright personality, and can't think of anything bad to say.
I could only hold back my face until it turned red, and I couldn't say anything.
Duan Yanqing and others were also stunned.
Only the Blood Knife Ancestor smiled silently, and his smile seemed to be true.
After holding it back for a while, Duan Yu said honestly and sincerely, "Brother, I will definitely repay you for your life-saving grace."
"Okay, brother Duan is really happy, so I won't be polite and just say it directly." Li Daoqiang patted Duan Yu on the shoulder proudly.
Duan Yu was stunned again. Is this a direct request for reward?
I felt even more awkward in my heart, but I had no choice but to frown, nodded, and said nervously: "Brother, please speak."
"Well, let's see. Brother Duan and I are destined to be together. I'll just ask for a little less, twenty million taels of silver. How about that?" Li Daoqiang said seriously.
"Twenty million taels of silver!"
Duan Yu's eyes widened and he stretched out two fingers.
Others also looked shocked.
"Yes, although 20 million taels of silver is a bit small, but I am pleased with you, Brother Duan. If you want less, just ask for less." Li Daoqiang said seriously.
"No, no, no."
Duan Yu became anxious, and immediately shook his head, swung his hands, and frowned: "Brother, no, twenty million taels of silver is too much, too much."
Li Daoqiang laughed twice, interrupted him and said with a smile: "I can tell at a glance that Brother Duan is not in charge of the family, so don't worry.
The majestic Dali royal family only has 20 million taels of silver.
It's a drop in the bucket, Duan, you don't understand, so I won't tell you.
I will talk to your father and uncle directly."
"Brother, my country in Dali is small and the people are weak. I really can't afford twenty million taels of silver." Duan Yu said hurriedly.
"Brother Duan, you don't believe me, do you? Just keep your heart in your stomach.
You are still young, and you don’t understand many things yet.
You don't need to worry about these." Li Daoqiang patted Duan Yu on the shoulder and said sincerely.
Duan Yu shook his head repeatedly, feeling angry in his heart, and said in his heart: "Then I don't want my brother to save me."
"Look, you're still acting like a child. Don't you know that you only have one life, which is the most precious thing?
You are really ignorant." Li Daoqiang's tone was a bit helpless.
He looked at the ancestor of Xue Dao and said: "Xue Dao, send my brother Duan to the capital of Dali and tell his parents that in ten days, the leader of this village will go to collect the money."
"yes."
The Blood Knife Ancestor chuckled and stepped forward to Duan Yu.
Duan Yu panicked, not knowing that the person in front of him was not a good person at all.
I don't really want to save him, I want to buy and sell him by force.
He backed away repeatedly and shouted: "No, no, I don't want your rescue."
Li Daoqiang's expression remained unchanged. The Blood Knife Ancestor understood and quickly stepped forward, grabbed Duan Yu, and headed towards the capital of Dali.
The shouting continued, gradually fading away until it disappeared.
Li Daoqiang watched the other party disappear, then withdrew his eyes and looked at Duan Yanqing and others.
At this moment, Duan Yanqing and others all had strange looks in their eyes.
Just watched it from beginning to end without saying a word.
At the same time, I also had an idea in my mind.
Li Daoqiang of Heilong Village is indeed greedy for money.
Actually do this!
Never seen it before.
The powerful man who is famous all over the world really... regards wealth as his life.
Seeing Li Daoqiang, Ye Erniang, Yun Zhonghe, and Yue Laosan, who was enduring the pain, all lowered their gazes and did not dare to look directly.
Duan Yanqing was silent for a moment and said in a low voice: "Master Li is blackmailing the Duan family like this, and the Duan family will never compromise easily."
No matter what, his surname is Duan.
Twenty million taels of silver belonged to Dali, so of course he would be displeased.
"Oh, this makes no sense. The leader of this village saved Duan Yu's life. It can be said that he did Dali a big favor. How can it be considered blackmail?
You know, the owner of this village has always handed over money with one hand and handed over to people with the other.
This time, directly rescuing people and releasing them first is enough to show sincerity." Li Daoqiang said with a calm smile.
Duan Yanqing has no intention of saying anything more. If he is not as strong as others, then he should retreat.
Calmly said: "I have offended many people today, let me take my leave first."
"Don't worry, the leader of this village has another deal, and I want to talk to you, Mr. Duan." Li Daoqiang chuckled.
Duan Yanqing felt a chill in his heart and was extremely vigilant.
Li Daoqiang definitely has no good intentions.
But looking at the other party's appearance, it was obvious that he wanted to buy and sell by force, and he could not tolerate his refusal.
He muttered: "Master Li, please speak."
Li Daoqiang's expression remained unchanged and he smiled: "That night twenty years ago, outside Tianlong Temple, under the bodhi tree, Mr. Duan, have you not forgotten it?"
"You, how did you know?"
Duan Yanqing was trembling all over and looked at Li Daoqiang in disbelief.
A trace of anticipation and shock filled his face.
Ye Erniang and others looked at Duan Yanqing in surprise. They had never seen such a strong reaction from Duan Yanqing.
"What on earth do you know?"
Duan Yanqing no longer had any worries and took a few steps forward, staring closely at Li Daoqiang.
Li Daoqiang didn't care, and his smile became stronger and he said slowly: "Don't be anxious, let's do this, we will discuss it here again in thirteen days.
The owner of this village guarantees that Mr. Duan will definitely be satisfied with this transaction."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Duan Yanqing was unwilling to give in and could not help but raise his cane, but still did not move.
The already ruined face twisted and became even more ferocious.
Gritting his teeth, he watched Li Daoqiang disappear.
"snort."
With a cold snort filled with murderous intent, Duan Yanqing walked in another direction.
He said in a deep voice: "Take care of the third child and let's go."
"yes."
On the other side, walking leisurely on the way to the capital of Dali, Li Daoqiang was thinking about his next plan.
The entire series of plans has already begun.
How much you can gain depends on the specific operations that follow.
Duan Jia, Duan Yanqing, Ye Erniang.
One ring after another.
You can definitely get a lot.
Don't be in a hurry, take your time, one by one.
Then he took a look at the more than 41 million bandit points in the big bandit system.
Sighed slightly.
There is still a long way to go, so we must continue to work hard.
Next, Li Daoqiang did not do anything more, but secretly followed the Blood Knife Ancestor.
Ensure that Duan Yu is safely returned to the capital of Dali.
More than three days later.
The Blood Knife Ancestor brought Duan Yu to the Zhennan Palace in Dali without fear.
That is the residence of Duan Yu's father, Duan Zhengchun.
"The Crown Prince is back, the Crown Prince is back!"
Cheers immediately sounded in the Zhennan Palace.
When the Blood Knife Ancestor saw this, he smiled and unblocked Duan Yu's acupuncture point that he had just put down.
As soon as the acupuncture points were unlocked, Duan Yu shouted angrily: "I won't let you save me."
"Prince Duan, don't be ignorant of good and evil. We, the head of the family, saved you first and took the money later for the sake of the Duan family in Dali." The ancestor of the Blood Knife said with a smile.
Even if he is standing in the center of Dali and is trying to extort money, he is not afraid at all.
"You!" Duan Yu couldn't help but point his finger at the Blood Sword Ancestor, he was really angry.
"Yu'er, don't be rude."
Suddenly, at this moment, a steady voice sounded.
Two figures took the lead, and more than a dozen people walked out of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.
Duan Yu turned around and looked happy, then ashamed, feeling that he had run away and gotten into trouble again.
Disappointed, he saluted and said: "Uncle, father."
"Yu'er, are you okay?" The man in the yellow dragon robe asked concernedly.
"Uncle, Yu'er is fine, just..." Duan Yu said and couldn't continue.
"It's fine. Don't worry. I'll leave it to my uncle and your father." The man in the dragon robe said with a fond smile.
"I'll settle the score with you later." Another middle-aged man said with a serious expression on his face.
Duan Yu shrank his neck and did not dare to speak.
The Blood Knife Ancestor narrowed his eyes and watched them talking.
I am not surprised that King Duan Zhengming of Dali is also here.
Duan Yu, the crown prince of Dali and probably the heir to the next generation of kings, is missing. If the Duan family of Dali didn't know that he was taking Duan Yu all the way to the capital of Dali.
Then the Duan family will not have the strength to rule the country of Dali.
Along the way, he had already noticed someone staring at him.
I'm afraid they also recognized his identity. For the sake of Black Dragon Village and the fact that he didn't hurt Duan Yu, he came all the way to the capital of Dali.
That's why I didn't take action against him.
It's not surprising that Duan Zhengming was waiting here beforehand, after all, it involves Black Dragon Village.
"Your Excellency is Black Dragon Village, Mr. Blood Knife, right?"
At this time, Duan Zhengchun, who was dressed in dark blue clothes and had a handsome face, spoke and looked at the Blood Knife Ancestor seriously.
Duan Zhengming didn't speak, just watched.
The Blood Knife Ancestor nodded and smiled: "It's me."
"No matter what, I would like to thank Mr. Xuedao for sending my son Duan Yu back. Duan Zhengchun will definitely express his gratitude." Duan Zhengchun said seriously.
Speech and behavior are all based on Jianghu.
"King Zhennan, you don't have to be polite. I'm just following the orders of the head of the family to send Prince Duan home, and I'll send you a few more words." The Blood Knife Ancestor said with confidence.
With Li Daoqiang supporting him from behind, he really wasn't worried.
"Dad." Duan Yu couldn't help it anymore, his face was anxious and angry, and he was about to speak.
Duan Zhengming and Duan Zhengchun both stopped him and looked at each other a little more solemnly.
Sure enough, Li Daoqiang himself was involved.
"Sir, please speak." Duan Zhengchun said politely.
"It's like this. Prince Duan was captured by the four evil men of Xixia Yipintang. The head of my family passed by, rescued Prince Duan, and asked me to send him back.
For this reason, the head of the family offended the four evil men and also offended Xixia.
Therefore, I offer twenty million taels of silver as a thank you for this matter.
Seven days later, the master will arrive and collect the silver himself." The Blood Knife Ancestor said simply and clearly.
Before he finished speaking, both Duan Zhengming brothers had already frowned.
