259: The red sea holds the honor, the beauties are like clouds
"I am too lazy to care."
Zuo Chongming shrugged and said to Bai Susu: "Okay, what I said to you that day has now been fulfilled. From now on, you and I will be clean."
Bai Susu's eyes turned red, and she tugged at the corner of his clothes pitifully: "Master Hou, I..."
"Go ahead."
Zuo Chongming twitched the corner of his mouth, resisting the feeling of being stabbed to death by the Red Sea Demon King's gaze, and said helplessly: "He is your biological father after all."
Bai Susu pouted her little mouth and said weakly: "But me, I want to stay... to serve you."
Zuo Chongming rolled his eyes: "The daughter of a powerful demon king deigns to come to my house as a maid. I cannot afford it, and your father will not agree."
"Do you believe that if I really want to do this, do you believe that your father will beat me directly at the door of my house and crush me to ashes on the spot?"
This sounds like a human saying.
The Scarlet Sea Demon King's expression softened a bit: "Susu, come back. Dad will never let anyone bully you again, nor will anything happen to you again."
"But……"
Bai Susu held on to the hem of his clothes and refused to let go, refusing to let go.
Looking at this scene, the Scarlet Sea Demon King suddenly had a few veins popping out of his forehead, and his eyes looking at Zuo Chongming were filled with unspeakable anger.
Fortunately, the arrival of Tang Wenwen and others broke the slightly stiff atmosphere.
Vice Sect Leader Feng glanced at the Scarlet Sea Demon King with fear, and suppressed his uneasiness and asked in a deep voice: "What on earth are you going to do to us?"
Zuo Chongming said calmly: "It's just an insurance to prevent you from saying things you shouldn't say. Other than that, there's nothing else."
"you……"
Tang Wenwen's pupils shrank slightly, as if she had thought of something, and her face turned slightly pale.
Zuo Chongming interrupted her and said shockingly: "If you don't agree, you can choose to die."
Tang Wenwen was trembling with anger and shouted angrily: "If you kill us, do you think you will be able to live well? Tianyan Sect will not let you go."
"Tianyan Sect?"
Zuo Chongming shook his head: "Believe it or not, as long as I give you a justifiable reason and make some compensation, they will stop."
Seeing that Tang Wenwen seemed to be about to refute, he interrupted with a smile: "Don't rush to veto verbally, think carefully with your brain."
"Although Tianyan Sect has a long heritage, it is not good at martial arts. The total number of disciples under the sect is only fifty, and the internal affairs are not monolithic."
"Based on these foundations, they will do their best for a mere deputy sect leader, a seemingly promising disciple...?"
Vice Sect Master Feng frowned and couldn't help but look at Ji Haoran.
Tianyan Sect has always been isolated from the world and rarely interacts with it. Zuo Chongming should not know so much and in such detail.
The only person involved with him is Ji Haoran, who is seeking his own death. This person should have learned the information from his mouth.
Thinking of this, Vice Sect Leader Feng's impression of Ji Haoran became even worse.
Tuk Tuk~!
Zuo Chongming knocked on the table and said: "Actually, if you agree, not only can you go back alive, but we can also be friends."
Tang Wenwen sarcastically said: "Being friends? With you? Who wants to be friends with a poisonous snake?"
Zuo Chongming was not angry either: "I'm still saying the same thing, don't rush to deny it, it will only make you look stupid, remember to use your brain in everything."
Vice Sect Leader Feng took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "Whatever move the Marquis wants to use, just use it, I will take over later."
"Ha ha."
Zuo Chongming put his hands on his hands and said with a smile: "I like Vice Sect Master Feng's resolute and resolute character. We really get along very well."
"As I just said, if you cooperate honestly, everything will go smoothly. Our friendship will always be effective."
friendship?
Vice Sect Master Feng smiled softly, and bowed his hands dryly: "Thank you very much, Mr. Hou."
As Tang Wenwen said, who wants to be friends with a poisonous snake?
What's more, Zuo Chongming is much more dangerous than a poisonous snake.
If you don't want to die, stay as far away as possible.
It is true that Deputy Sect Master Feng is right to think so, and it can even be said to be completely correct.
But he ignored one problem - he was not a chess player.
Not everything will go according to the trajectory he expected.
After all, reality always backfires.
——
——
In the evening, the sky is getting dark.
The flying boat slowly landed at the newly built pier in Ping'an County.
As soon as Zuo Chongming and his party got off the flying boat, they were taken to the mansion by Li Jun, who had been well prepared.
Tang Wenwen and the others had left, and the Scarlet Sea Demon King was nowhere to be found, but Bai Susu was still with him.
There are two main reasons why the Demon King did not take away his daughter.
First of all, Bai Susu didn't want to leave.
After all, she grew up in human society and did not want or dare to follow the Red Sea Demon King.
Secondly, the Red Sea Demon King is going to deliver a message to the southern wilderness.
The journey here is long and mostly in deep mountains and forest streams, so it is very inconvenient to carry Bai Susu with you.
Ever since, the Demon King made an agreement with Zuo Chongming.
Let Bai Susu continue to follow him first, but she must not be a maid anymore. After the Demon King comes back from doing things, we can discuss Bai Susu's stay.
In fact, they both knew it in their hearts when they said so.
It was impossible for Bai Susu to follow him, at least not in a short period of time.
The Red Sea Demon King has only two choices, either to take her away by force, or to stay with her until the time is right.
If the Demon King chooses the former, it will definitely lead to the complete separation of the relationship between the father and daughter, who have no emotional basis, and then go to extremes...
This matter is not complicated, and it is impossible for the Red Sea Demon King not to think of it, so he has only one choice - to stay.
But he is the Demon King after all, so if he stayed after the first meeting, he would definitely lose face.
That's why he proposed this useless agreement to pave the way for him to stay after he came back.
"Sir, please come this way."
Li Jun led the way respectfully and asked doubtfully: "Your Excellency is here suddenly. Is the situation in Fucheng stable?"
“It’s been very stable.”
Zuo Chongming twitched the corner of his lips: "The barbarians suffered a loss of blood and retreated in embarrassment. Bald Donkey dispatched men and temporarily returned to the extreme west."
"Martial arts schools are busy recruiting disciples to make money, aristocratic families are having trouble recruiting new blood, and sects are busy fighting for routes and trying to carry passengers to make money..."
"The calm before the storm."
Li Jun pursed his lips and his expression became solemn.
Ever since he took the position of Ping'an County's Demon Suppressor, he had a deep sense of the meticulousness of Zuo Chongming's calculations...
From the current perspective, recalling what Zuo Chongming had done, Li Jun easily discovered many details that he had not discovered before.
The biggest difference between Zuo Chongming and others is his grasp of the ‘initiative’, or... persistence.
To put it simply, he is not like the protagonist of ordinary novels who likes to be passive and defensive. He is more inclined to take the initiative to provoke trouble and attack.
Often when he spells out the details of his 'plan', it means that all his preparations and layouts are complete, and all he has to do next is wait for the results.
Zuo Chongming asked in passing: "How did the Dragon Gate event go?"
"Everything is going well. It is expected that they will come out in a few days."
Li Jun reminded: "By the way, sir, a sect leader came over a few days ago. He wants to sell some properties and inventory, and add some money to buy a flying boat."
"I took the bait." Zuo Chongming chuckled.
Li Jun couldn't help but be stunned and asked: "Huh? You had expected this?"
Zuo Chongming nodded: "Next, Zhenfusi's flying boat will go back and forth to the far west. It is impossible to make money carrying passengers, so the route will naturally be freed up."
"How could they let go of this piece of fat after tasting the huge profits made by flying boats? They must buy more flying boats to seize the route."
Li Jun frowned slightly and said worriedly: "My lord, if you want them to spit out the meat that has already been eaten, it will not be easy."
"No hurries?"
Zuo Chongming was not worried at all, but was happy to see the results: "I hope that they can eat more. The more they eat, the better."
"..." Li Jun's mouth twitched.
Although he didn't understand the deeper meaning of this move, he had been with the opponent for a long time and knew very well that this move would have terrible lethality.
…
Zuo Chongming's whereabouts were not concealed from anyone.
Moreover, at the end of the Longmen Festival, each sect still has to recruit disciples.
As a result, starting from noon the next day, various forces continued to visit him.
Needless to say about sects, many aristocratic families also expressed their goodwill.
I don’t know where they heard it from, but Zuo Chongming loved beauty and liked beautiful women...
When these aristocratic families visit, they usually bring several children with them... No, strictly speaking, they are all women.
It's hard to say whether she is a daughter, but she is definitely from the same clan.
Unfortunately, the quality is average.
Even though those girls were all fair-skinned and beautiful, with good temperaments, good-looking bodies, and different styles... Zuo Chongming still thought so.
Li Jun came over and reported: "Master Hou, it's almost done."
"Let's go."
Zuo Chongming got on the carriage and headed out of the city surrounded by a group of demon-slaying envoys.
The main reason why we chose to go outside the city is... there are too many people.
He had already picked a place in the city, but he didn't expect that that afternoon, all the hotels and residences near the venue were packed to capacity.
Despite this, there was still a steady stream of people coming, even paralyzing several nearby streets.
In desperation, Li Jun could only choose another place outside the city and set up a temporary venue.
"Fuck, it's coming, it's coming..."
"Zuo Chongming is here!"
"Zuo Zuo, my Zuo Zuo."
"Master Hou's beef batch!!"
As soon as the motorcade left the city gate, there were noisy shouts.
Just like a wave, one after another, it stretches and is very spectacular.
For those who don’t know, they think this is the emperor’s trip.
"Brothers, what do you think will happen if I rush out?"
"die."
"No way, he dares to kill someone on such a happy day?"
"He dares to issue a purge order, so what's wrong with killing someone?"
"Forget it, I finally reincarnated into Xiyun Mansion, but I don't want to commit suicide again."
The anchor player shrank his neck and decisively chose to give in.
Players are indeed lawless, but when the cost exceeds the bottom line, they will shrink back. After all, they are also human beings...
It is no exaggeration to say that if you ignore the special characteristics of the players, at least 80% of the players will not be able to compare with the aboriginal NPCs.
