Su Chengde looked a little excited. He stood up immediately and said: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's set off now. I heard that this auction will be held in the Eastern Suburbs Courtyard!"
But Su Changkong still sat there, waving his hands and saying: "There's no rush, before I go, I have to contact someone. This person is very crucial. Whether our Su family can succeed in this auction depends on this person.
"
Su Chengzheng immediately asked: "Who is this person?"
Su Changkong sighed slightly: "Hong Liwu!"
"Hong Liwu?" Su Chengde's expression couldn't help but he said in shock: "Hong Liwu, the one from Baicaotang?"
Su Changkong sighed: "It is this person. Hong Liwu appears to be the boss of Baicaotang, but in fact, he is the eighth generation elder of the Beggar Clan and the helmsman of the Beggar Clan's branch in Jiangbei Province.
"
Having said this, he let out a long sigh and said: "Baicaotang has stayed out of the matter all these years and has shown no signs of taking the initiative in Jiangbei, so I have never contacted him proactively. But today I heard that Hong Liwu has planned to take action.
Already."
Su Chengde couldn't help but said: "If Hong Liwu really plans to take action, then our Su family will have to make plans early. After all, the other party is the elder of the Beggar Clan."
Su Chengzheng interjected: "Master, I have a suggestion. Why don't our Su family join hands with this Hong Liwu and use Hong Liwu's hands to deal with the new worshipper?"
Su Changkong immediately waved his hand and said: "I have thought of this a long time ago, but no, once we join forces and Hong Liwu gets involved, we may very well lead the wolf into the house!"
Su Chengde nodded and said solemnly: "Yes, Hong Liwu, a one-eyed dragon, is very scheming and vicious. He is by no means weaker than that man named Tang!"
"Okay, don't say much!" Su Changkong stood up, holding on to the back of his chair, and sighed: "Chengde, please come with me. First, go to Baicao Hall to find out what Hong Liwu's tone is, and then go to Dongdong.
Suburban Villa."
Su Chengde immediately said: "It's the head of the family."
Su Chengzheng said at this time: "Then, head of the family, Youhang and Sufeng, I, and I will go to the auction to wait for you."
Su Changkong nodded, and the Su family set off immediately, heading east on a starry night.
At this moment, the seven-story attic on the highest floor of Baicao Hall was also brightly lit. Hong Liwu was standing in front of the window, squinting his one eye and looking at the vast night of Jiangbei River in the distance.
Hong Tianze stood behind him, as if he couldn't bear the long silence, and said: "Father, what are we waiting for? Since a large number of Qi Gathering Pills have appeared in Jiangbei, we must take action."
Hong Liwu bent his back. Although the light in the attic was very bright, the bright light hitting his wrinkled face was indescribably ferocious. He did not look back, but said lightly: "Of course we have to take action, but
, let me ask you, how are we going to take action?"
Hong Tianze said without thinking: "Since the other party is auctioning it, of course we will buy it."
Hong Liwu still didn't look back, but said coldly: "Buy, for what?"
Hong Tianze said: "I heard that the other party's condition is to use Bailing Fruit to buy it, two Bailing Fruits in exchange for a Qi Gathering Pill!"
Hong Liwu smiled, and the slightly raised corners of his mouth seemed to have no expression. However, this lack of expression was more permeable than the expression. He just hummed: "Two Bailing Fruits for one Qi Gathering Pill, he is
Good deal.”
Hong Tianze was a little confused when he heard this, and couldn't help but said: "As far as I know, father, there should be a lot of Bai Ling Guo in our Baicao Hall. I am bound to get this Qi Gathering Pill. I must take revenge and avenge my shame!"
As he spoke, he suddenly clenched his hands and gritted his teeth and said: "In front of everyone, I, a majestic ancient warrior, lost to a warrior king. I absolutely cannot bear this tone."
Hong Liwu said nonchalantly: "He's just a small military king, nothing to worry about. The most important thing now is the guy behind the scenes who is auctioning the Qi Gathering Pill."
Hong Tianze couldn't help but said: "From father's tone, you seem to know the person behind the auction?"
Hong Liwu immediately said: "If nothing else happens, it should be that guy!"
Hong Tianze smiled and said: "Since we know each other, wouldn't it be easier? Let's just buy the Qi Gathering Pill directly from him. I believe that with the reputation of our Baicaotang, this person won't dare to make too much, and he may even get a discount."
"Buy it from him?" Hong Liwu laughed sternly again. He slowly turned his head, glanced at his son, and said, "We are bound to get this Qi Gathering Pill, but we are definitely not buying it!"
Hong Tianze wondered: "If you don't buy it, how can you get it? Can't we just grab it?"
Hong Liwu suddenly raised his head and laughed loudly: "Yes, you finally got it right this time!"
Hong Tianze couldn't help but be a little surprised, and couldn't help but ask: "Father, since the other party can get something like Qi Gathering Pill, it is enough to show that his identity is definitely not trivial. Although there is a gang of beggars behind us, if the person behind the scenes is from
There is a huge monster in Guwu, and it is very likely that we will cause unnecessary trouble."
Hong Liwu smiled noncommittally. In fact, he had not explained many things clearly to Hong Tianze, including the last time that the man named Tang came to Baicaotang to compete with him and finally forcibly won twelve Bailing Fruits.
When he heard the news about the Qi Gathering Pill, Hong Liwu had already suspected that the person behind the auction was Tang. When he finally went in and found out that it was Mao Shiba who was manipulating the matter, he became even more sure.
Of course, Hong Liwu knew that he was outmatched, but still wanted to take the Qi Gathering Pill. Of course, he was not stupid. A scheming person like him would never take action rashly if he was not completely sure.
"Okay, you don't need to worry about the rest. Anyway, my father will help you get this Qi Gathering Pill tonight!" Hong Liwu waved his hand, turned and walked towards the stairs, while humming softly: "Let's go first.
Meet that boy!"
Just as the two of them walked downstairs to the door, an extended Lincoln suddenly drove up, and then Su Changkong and Su Chengde hurriedly got out of the car.
"Su Changkong, I have met Mr. Hong." Su Changkong and the other two came over and cupped their hands.
Hong Liwu stared at his one eye and said in a slightly contemptuous tone: "It turns out that it's the head of the Su family who came to Baicaotang at night. Are you here to buy medicine?"
Su Changkong smiled and said, "No, I'm here to discuss something with Mr. Hong."
Hong Liwu said coldly: "What's the matter?"
Su Changkong smiled: "It can be seen that Mr. Hong is going out now for the Qi Gathering Pill auction, right? I am here also for the Qi Gathering Pill."
Hong Liwu said expressionlessly: "That's right, I'm planning to go to the Eastern Suburbs Courtyard. If you have any questions, just tell me!"
Su Changkong looked around and said, "I'm afraid it's not convenient to discuss here. If possible, let's go in first and discuss it in detail. Don't worry, Mr. Hong, we won't delay you for long."
Hong Liwu thought for a while, nodded slightly, then turned around and walked into the hall of Baicaotang, followed closely by Su Changkong and others.
But Hong Tianze shouted: "Father, since you have something to do, let's talk first. I'll go to the Eastern Suburbs Courtyard first!"
As he said this, he immediately got into his car without waiting for Hong Liwu to reply.
