Legend of the Gu Demon

Chapter 60: Layers of disguise to hide greed

After the rain, the sun rises, and the air is filled with moisture and fog.

There are many rainy days in summer, but they often come and go quickly.

In just a few hours, the dark clouds pressing down the sky were replaced by the sun.

Ningchen walked down the bamboo building leisurely. After the rain, a unique smell of damp soil swept into his nose. When he sniffed carefully, he could smell the freshness of bamboo.

"It's good that this rain has just washed away the bloody smell of yesterday."

"But we still have to deal with their bodies!"

The clear rain flowed down the bamboo eaves, forming a water curtain from time to time, reflecting Ningchen's handsome face with a smile clearly.

Ningchen and Ningchuan walked out of their residence together and walked towards the market together.

"Ningchuan, you will go to the market to pick your servants later. Be careful to pick good quality ones."

"Look at their age. Xiao, are you injured..."

"Okay, okay, it's not like I haven't bought slaves with you before, I know all this, no need to say more."

"I remember that Ye Ling'er was bought by you and me, she's really useful! She's pretty, sweet, and takes care of all the housework."

Ningchuan interrupted Ningchen's warning impatiently, and while talking and laughing, a few traces of memories of the past appeared in his eyes,

"Haha."

Ningchen just laughed twice with unclear meanings when he heard it,

After all, Ye Ling'er had already become a dead soul under his sword,

"Okay, you go buy slaves, I'll go take care of some things."

"Okay, let's meet here later."

Ningchuan and Ningchen separated after arriving at the market, after all, Ningchen and Ningchuan had different purposes,

Ningchen walked quietly on the street crowded with vendors, his black eyes swept Looking at the vendors beside him, he was looking for his target.

"Look, look, it's candied haws~"

"It's a pie~ delicious pie~"

"Guess, how many hundred pounds does this stone weigh?"

"Speaking of which, the fourth-generation patriarch of Gu Yue was a handsome man, a rare talent..."

On the street, there were vendors selling food, storytellers talking about the past and the present, and street performers who made a living by performing.

However, none of these people were the targets that Ning Chen was looking for.

In an instant, Ning Chen's black eyes flashed slightly, and he stepped forward quickly.

"Boss, I rent you four carts for a day, how much?"

"Oh, sir, four carts a day is one Yuanshi."

Ning Chen casually threw over two Yuanshi, which seemed very generous.

"I'll give you two, and you and your shop assistants will take one Yuanshi. Help me deliver some things to the outside of the village. "

"Hey, Master is really generous! No problem."

The man in the display case carefully caught the two Yuan stones thrown by Ning Chen, with a few traces of greed in his eyes, and put the Yuan stones into his pocket as if he had found a treasure,

"Let's go."

"Okay!"

Ning Chen walked in front, and four men followed behind him, each pushing a cart.

Walking forward slowly, he saw Ning Chuan standing at the place they agreed with a large number of newly purchased servants from a distance,

"Let's go, Ning Chuan."

"Okay, why are you going to hire a few carts?"

"To deal with the corpses."

"Oh, that's right."

Ning Chen and Ning Chuan walked in front leisurely, their tone was normal, but the words they uttered made the people behind them feel like they were falling into an ice cave,

"Are they saying that they want us to help deal with the corpses? "

"I seem to have heard it too..."

"......"

The four men discussed in a low voice, but fell into a dead silence.

"Don't worry, they are just some dead bodies of servants. You just need to help me transport them. You will get the Yuanshi."

Ningchen seemed to have noticed the silence of the people behind him, and spoke slowly.

Hearing this, their interest immediately rose. After all, the one who gives the Yuanshi is the boss!

But the servants on the side were completely different. They all looked ashen.

A group of people returned to the bamboo building under the leadership of Ningchen.

"Okay, just load all the bags onto the car and transport them outside the village."

"Is it that simple?"

"It's that simple." "

Ning Chen casually took out two more Yuanshi and handed them to the shopkeeper in charge. He then handed over their tasks and left.

The men were no longer so resistant and carried the bags onto the carts one after another.

Although the bloody smell could still be smelled through the bags...

"Yilian, these servants will be under your management in the future. By the way, pick out a servant who can cook and do housework and send him to my bamboo house."

"By the way, if they are disobedient, just kill them. "

Ningchen patted Yilian's soft shoulders with a calm expression. He was not worried about Yilian's ability to manage the servants.

Then, Ningchen and Ningchuan walked into the bamboo building one after another...

The next day, in the school,

Ningchen still sat by the window, and his deskmate next to him was still Haoyu, but she didn't dare to say a word to Ningchen.

The two of them seemed a little awkward here, but Ningchen felt much more peaceful.

Leaning quietly by the window, bathing in the breeze, it has brought a few traces of coolness, no longer so hot,

"Okay, this class is over here, Ningchen, come find me after class."

Hearing this, Ningchen looked at the door where the school elder walked out with some surprise,

"Call me over? What could it be?"

After class, Ning Chen walked out of the classroom slowly and entered the office of the school elder. However, the person he saw surprised Ning Chen.

"Master Clan Leader, I have brought the person you wanted to you."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, school elder."

The school elder who used to be high and mighty now stood aside like a doorman, his tone and actions were extremely respectful.

The only person who could be respected by the school elder was the Gu Yue clan leader, Gu Yuebo.

"Ning Chen, you are here, sit down."

When Gu Yuebo saw Ning Chen coming in, he smiled lightly, very gently, as if he was really an elder in the village.

Ning Chen's heart calmed down when he saw this. After all, he knew who he was facing, so there was no need to be surprised and panic.

"Well~ You are the first young man I have ever seen who can face me calmly. , Ningchen. "

"Thank you, clan leader."

Faced with the praise from clan leader Gu Yue, Ningchen just replied indifferently,

"Haha~ to make a long story short, you should be at the peak of the first turn now, and you are about to reach the second turn, and your cultivation is the highest among your class."

"I don't care why you are the highest at the third level, I don't care why you are so strong, and I don't care how many Yuanshi and time you spent to become the peak of the first turn."

"What I care about is that you are the inner demon of Qingshu, hindering his cultivation."

"So what I hope is that you can deliberately lose to Qingshu in the end-of-year assessment."

Gu Yuebo kept talking, and the aura of the superior was unconsciously revealed, making ordinary people dare not speak out to resist,

but how could Ningchen be an ordinary person?

"Deliberately lose to Qingshu..."

"I expected you didn't want to agree. Don't worry, I will give you some compensation."

"No, no, no, I mean, we can discuss compensation."

Ning Chen smiled lightly, but Gu Yuebo was slightly stunned...
