69 -2 The Deal that Fell from Heaven_2
“But…” Liu Zhenhan squinted his eyes cunningly, “I actually did cut off some of its meat and turned it into salted meat, which I have been carrying all this time.
It’s not much, just a piece.
The meat looked so fat and juicy, and I hadn’t brought enough dried food.”
“Richard!!” Helen almost leaped on Liu Zhenhan in fury, grabbed his ear and yelled, “How could you do this to your own magical beast!
You are…”
“Helen!” Liu Zhenhan pretended to be very angry and hugged Helen around the waist, while winking at her desperately.
Helen struggled fiercely, her fiery tail whipping Liu Zhenhan’s face and making for a rather undignified scene.
Old man Xu sprinkled some powder on Helen’s face; she instantly stopped struggling and fell into a deep sleep.
Liu Zhenhan stared at him, holding his breath.
His face began to show signs of anger.
“Dear Mr.
Richard, rest assured, I just put her to sleep, absolutely no side effects.
This effect will last for two days.
When she wakes up, Miss Helen will be even more energetic.
The medicines we create are for the Emperor to take, they absolutely do not contain toxins.” Old man Xu smirked, “Can we get back to our discussion?
Could you spare me that piece of dragon meat?”
“No problem!
I’ve eaten it before, so I don’t mind.
But, you know…” Liu Zhenhan pretended to be on the fence, swinging his legs and showing a nonchalant expression as he looked at Old man Xu, quickly rubbing his fingers together.
“This…” greed flickered uncertainly across Ferguson Xu’s face.
“Don’t think about playing any dirty tricks!” Liu Zhenhan sneered, “I have a ‘Crazy War Song’.
You’ve seen my ‘music martial arts’.
If it goes crazy again and attacks randomly, it would ruin our friendship.”
If the god of war, Beamon Kampas, heard Liu Zhenhan bragging like this, he would be furious.
Old man Xu, however, was genuinely scared; speaking frankly, he had been considering doing just that.
“Everything on this ship is meant to obtain the Elixir of Immortality.
Just name your price.” Old man Xu gritted his teeth, “The three hundred men and women on the ship are the best servants.
I can trade all of them to you.
According to the prices of the Aegean Continent, each one of them – having undergone comprehensive training in music and dance, language, and martial skills – is definitely worth more than a hundred gold coins.
That includes the Panta Clan’s Panda Warriors.
They can be yours too!”
Liu Zhenhan held the sleeping Helen in his arms, shaking his head like a rattle and his legs trembling uncontrollably.
At this moment, he was nothing more than a thug, extorting them mercilessly.
“I will also give you Clam Girl Ning Yu!” Ferguson Xu’s eyes reddened, and his composure was nowhere to be found.
“Sir!” Ning Yu’s beautiful clam shell trembled slightly.
“Silence!” Old man Xu’s face was close to madness, “You are all my subordinates who have come out to sea with me.
I have the right to represent all of our people and negotiate the exchange of your lives for the Elixir!”
The panda warriors were silently controlling the rudder and sails, the look of despair on their faces clear.
The responsibility of sacrificing themselves to bring life back to their tribe was too heavy to bear.
Liu Zhenhan was still shaking his head.
“What on earth do you want?” Ferguson Xu grumbled, “Clam Girls are the most beautiful ladies in the East.
Do you know how rare they are in our tribe?
You swine!
She is an illusionist!
What do you really want?”
“Look at my rotten mouth!” Old man Xu slapped himself, “Sorry, Lord Sacrifice, I shouldn’t have said that!
I was wrong!
Please don’t take it to heart!”
“Sir!” Ning Yu’s face was filled with tears that shimmered like pearls, “I reject your proposal.
I am a person, not an object!
If you insist on doing this, I’d rather vanish in this blue sea!”
“No need!” Liu Zhenhan waved his hand, “Forced melons are not sweet!
I won’t stoop so low as to bully an innocent girl to achieve my goals!”
Ning Yu stared at Liu Zhenhan for a long time, feeling as though she had met a new person entirely.
“So, what do you want?” Old Man Xu looked at himself and said, “You’re not pining for me, are you?
I’m old and decrepit!
Good for nothing!
Oh right, the Mermaid Princess from the Sea Clan.
Yes, that’s right!
I’ll give her to you.
She’s the most beautiful woman in the western Sea Clan.
It’s said that if you stay with her, you might gain some mysterious domain-bounding power.
You wouldn’t turn that down, would you?”
“That mermaid was captured by me.
She’s originally my slave.
What’s it got to do with you?” Liu Zhenhan snorted disdainfully, gazes aloft at the drifting clouds, appearing completely indifferent to fame and fortune.
But inside, he was trembling with excitement.
Damn it, with so many servants and warriors, he wanted to laugh but dared not, it was agonizingly frustrating.
“Grandpa!” Ferguson Xu was nearly driven mad, “What do you want?
What else do you want?
There’s no money on this ship, we’re just some travelers, this journey is drawing to a close, we have no money to give you!!”
“I want your thumb ring, the one that can summon the Golden Figures…the Blood Jade Ring!” Liu Zhenhan finally revealed his fox tail.
“This…” The old man’s face shadowed, “This is the last remaining treasure of our clan, you…
besides, you won’t know the spell to unseal it, it’ll be useless to you…”
“I can learn.
I’m a natural-born Soul Singer, after all!” Liu Zhenhan scoffed, “As for the spell of yours, as long as you teach me, it’ll only take a few minutes.”
“No way!” Old man Xu flatly refused, his decisiveness to which Liu Zhenhan was somewhat taken aback.
“Heh heh…” Liu Zhenhan sneered, “Everything you said was so muddled, I hardly find your abilities believable.
Are you really in control?
Forget it, call off the deal!
Take me back to the Donau Wasteland, I’ll give you time.
You can slowly go look for the Elixir of Immortality!”
“Give me a bit more time to think about it!” Tortured with indecision, Ferguson Xu’s face contorted painfully.
“That’s fair!” Liu Zhenhan said, “We are yet to escape the Sea Clan’s territory, whether we can get home is still in question, you’ll have plenty of time to think!”
“You really should’ve swapped bodies with the young miss in your arms, you’re nothing like a Piegel!
You’re just the worst kind of Fawkes!” The haggard old man Xu breathed heavily, casting resentful glances at Liu Zhenhan.
“Thank you for your compliment!” Liu Zhenhan hung a string of black, sun-dried jerky meat on his thumb, with his finger held up high, “Better uphold your promise before you negotiate with me!
I can’t feel your sincerity anywhere! fгeewebnovёl.com
Don’t test my patience, or else, I’ll toss this meat into the sea to feed the turtles!”
“Don’t…” Old man Xu quickly waved him off, “I’ll think of something!
I’ll definitely think of something!
I’ll show you my sincerity.
Just give me some time to consider!”
“Is there any room in the cabin?
I want to sleep.” Liu Zhenhan grinned.
“Ning Yu, show our esteemed guest the way.” Old man Xu, looking utterly exhausted, gave the order to the Clam Girl.
Watching Liu Zhenhan disappear into the cabin, a chilly expression flashed across Ferguson Xu’s face.
That pig!
Ferguson Xu’s sage-like face twisted in an instant.
That old coot better not bloody back out!
Liu Zhenhan followed Ning Yu’s silent and helpless steps with a restless heart, feeling as if he was a swing, going back and forth.
In his arms was a sleeping Helen, in his hand was the sun-darkened jerky of Water Jet Rabbit and a big salted fish, and…
The non-existent dragon meat…
