"This..." Listening to Ye Fan's words, Wu Jingtian became a little worried.
"Then, are we in any danger?"
"The danger is in the future. Now, we still have time." Ye Fan just replied, glanced at Wu Jingtian, but suddenly showed a smile, "Now you know why I said I know too much, but I am afraid.
"
"It's true that I'm a little scared." Wu Jingtian replied, scratching his head, "I shouldn't have asked so carefully."
"There is nothing to be afraid of. The collision would have happened, but I knew in advance that there would be a strong enemy." Ye Fan waved his hand, "It's a good thing. After hiding for more than ten years, I might not have expected that because of a Colosseum,
I caught clues about the thugs."
"This can be regarded as a good reward for good people." Wu Jingtian replied, after thinking for a while, he asked with some doubts, "What did the Lord want when he asked Hu Bijie to find all those Gu masters that day?"
"Ask if there is any other useful information." Ye Fan replied very concisely, "Just kill him after asking."
"Just kill it." Wu Jingtian was a little frightened, "If we kill him, won't the people in Lieyang Province notice us?"
"Do you think they haven't noticed us now? We have done so many things. Now, I am afraid that more than half of the nearly 100 provinces in the world have heard about it." Ye Fan replied, shaking his head.
"Every month in Yuncheng, there are probably hundreds of outsiders who catch unknown origins. Aren't these all spies sent by those who want to spy on us?"
"God didn't kill those people, why did these Gu masters kill..." Wu Jingtian was a little confused.
"It's different."
Ye Fan just shook his head, "Those people can only be regarded as prying eyes. These Gu Masters are equivalent to the hands of others reaching into your house to steal things. The ones stolen are those relics who may be of great use in the future.
"
"Just cover your eyes, but the hands that steal things must be cut off. This is the attitude we tell each other."
"That's right." Wu Jingtian nodded and said hesitantly, "But will this attract powerful enemies to Nanchuan in the future?"
"It's a strong enemy to begin with, so it's not a big draw." Ye Fan waved his hands, as if he had thought of something, and looked at Wu Jingtian aside, "Senior Wu Jingtian, a person who can make thousands of Gu masters plunder the blood of relics everywhere.
, why do you think he leads the Lieyang?"
After saying these words, Ye Fan's tone was quite calm, but Wu Jingtian seemed to react.
"Anyone can be anyone, but they won't be a good person."
"That's okay."
Ye Fan answered, but his eyes were slightly cold.
"I, Ye Fan, can be considered a rebellious person, but I still maintain basic respect for those clansmen who have inherited blood."
"After all, they are all descendants of the martyrs of the human race. It is their ancestors who have won the shadow of the human race for thousands of years. Even if they have not made any mistakes, they should also receive some respect."
"A person always has some beliefs. When he regards the blood of the martyrs as pigs and dogs, do you still hope that he can do good things for the human race?"
"I understand a little bit." Wu Jingtian said, seeming to understand somewhat and nodded.
"Okay, let's just wait for Hu Bijie to find those Gu masters." Ye Fan just replied, without continuing to talk about it. He waved his hand, reached out, and took off the mask on his face. At the same time, he took off the mask.
He took off the armor and black sword and put them aside.
"Let's go for a walk in the city today. It's an occasional relaxation."
"Why did God suddenly want to go for a walk today?" Hearing this, Wu Jingtian showed a puzzled expression. In his impression, Ye Fan seldom rested. Apart from dealing with some affairs, he was basically practicing.
Hearing this, Ye Fan waved his hand, with a slightly meaningful expression on his face.
"Nothing, just wanted to take a look."
…
"God, in your ordinary appearance, you look quite like the young masters of those big families."
As night fell, walking on the road, Wu Jingtian looked at Ye Fan, who was wearing black clothes not far away, and praised him endlessly, "A person with extraordinary bearing really makes people feel different even if he is wearing coarse cloth."
"Brother Gongzi is not a compliment to me." Ye Fan replied in a calm tone.
At night, the streets of Bishan City are very lively and full of people, with pedestrians coming and going, and various brightly lit shops, making it very lively.
Ye Fan and Wu Jingtian were just walking among the ordinary passers-by. Not many people had seen Ye Fan's appearance, while Wu Jingtian was wearing a hat with the brim lowered, which didn't seem to attract anyone's attention.
After spending not much time wandering around the street, Ye Fan finally walked into a noodle shop on the corner of the street. This noodle shop was located in a slightly remote location, and it was already evening. There were no customers, except for two or three people.
"Sir, what do you want to eat?" The friendly boss came up to us. He had some powder in his hand. He must have been making dough in the kitchen just now.
"Beef noodles, two or three liang." Ye Fan replied, taking Wu Jingtian to sit in the corner of the noodle shop.
"Why do I feel like God is very familiar with this place?" Looking at Ye Fan, Wu Jingtian seemed a little confused.
"Of course it's familiar." Ye Fan replied, "Don't forget, I was just a child from an ordinary family. I have been to noodle shops like this countless times."
"I have forgotten the experience of Lord Tiangong." Wu Jingtian replied with a smile, glanced at Ye Fan, and seemed to sigh, "It is hard to imagine that people like Lord Tiangong were once like ordinary people."
"On the contrary, I feel that my humble background will allow me to see more things." Ye Fan just replied, with a somewhat profound expression on his face.
This sentence is true, but it is not complete. In his previous life, he also came from a humble background, but he grew up and worked hard to make a living. Later, he paid attention to the things in the clouds, and in this life, he returned from the clouds.
When I look at this land again, it is completely different from what it was back then.
With the Arrancar, the perspective is different, it's still the same world, but in Ye Fan's eyes, it's like two different scenery.
"Perhaps this is the reason why God is so tolerant to ordinary people." Wu Jingtian said thoughtfully, but Ye Fan just shook his head and smiled without saying a word.
"Two portions of beef noodles, please enjoy your meal."
Soon, the boss brought the beef noodles and placed the steaming noodles in front of Wu Jingtian and Ye Fan.
"Very fragrant." Wu Jingtian said. As a martial artist, he didn't have much airs. He picked up the bowl and started to drink.
Ye Fan is much gentler. He came here because of his travels and stopped at this noodle shop many times.
In my impression, during those few years as a thug, this was my favorite place to come. It was not expensive and the noodles were delicious.
"There's not much difference in taste." After taking two casual bites, Ye Fan nodded. Just as he was about to get up to get a bowl of noodle soup, several menacing strong men suddenly walked into the restaurant.
"Lao Litou, when will this month's monthly payment be paid in full?"
As soon as he came in, the strong man in charge was not very polite and slapped his palm heavily on the table.
He obviously had some practice. When he slapped it with his palm, the table was almost broken into pieces, and the sound it made was very harsh.
"In two days, it will all be paid in two days." The boss walked out quickly with a careful smile on his face. He was not a dull person. While speaking, he held two sheets in his hand.
banknote.
"Business is not good this month, so I still have a little money to pay, so please be lenient."
The strong man in the lead was very polite. He looked at the ticket handed over by the boss, took it in his hand, and curled his lips, "Okay, I'll give you two more days."
"Get it together as soon as possible, don't make it difficult for me."
After saying a few words, the strong man came and went in a hurry and led the people out of the noodle shop. Several people in the noodle shop looked at each other. Wu Jingtian also seemed a little surprised. He glanced at Ye Fan and saw that Ye Fan's face was gloomy. He quickly said, "God.
, didn’t you say that Bishan City was managed well by Guo Jin, why is there still such a thing?”
"Not sure." Ye Fan replied, but the expression on his face was obviously not very good. He just said: "Ask the boss."
After receiving Ye Fan's order, Wu Jingtian quickly stood up and walked towards the kitchen. After a while, he quickly walked back, sat across from Ye Fan, and spoke in a low voice.
"Let me ask you clearly, this street is owned by the Zhang family. In addition to the monthly rent, all the shops that are settled in the street also have to pay extra exception money every month. The amount is huge, and it is basically the same as the profit of the noodle shop.
"
"In addition to the rent, you also need to pay extra money?" Hearing this, Ye Fan frowned immediately, "Who gave them the right to charge it like this?"
"It's their own rules. The boss said that many streets in Bishan City have this kind of money." Wu Jingtian replied and whispered: "It seems that it has been maintained in Bishan City for many years. It has always been like this."
"It's always been like this..."
Hearing this, Ye Fan immediately snorted coldly, and suddenly remembered that in his previous life, he had asked the boss why the noodle shop was doing well, why not change it to a bigger shop, or move to a better location. The boss just
Laughing, Ye Fan thought he had some feelings.
All the money he earned was sucked away by these vampires.
"These noble people never disappoint me every time."
After saying this, Ye Fan put down his chopsticks and stood up with a cold face. If he hadn't had a whim to take a look at it today, I'm afraid he would never know the answer.
On the side, Wu Jingtian noticed Ye Fan's anger and quickly stood up. Ye Fan just turned his waist and dropped a token.
"Take my token and go to these big families and ask their clan leaders to come to the city lord's mansion to see me early tomorrow morning."
"Let them arrive as soon as it gets light. If they come late, they can come by themselves!"
