Chapter 39 Blackmail
The moment Chen Rong said this, Chu Xiu's face twitched slightly, but a huge wave had already stirred up in his heart.
Collusion with bandits and slaughtering tribe members. Chu Xiu certainly knew what kind of crime this was, and it was a crime that was enough to kill people!
Chu Xiu remained calm on his face, and stood up and said coldly: "Butler Shen, you can eat things randomly, but you can't talk nonsense! I'm not crazy, how could I do such crazy things?"
Chen Rong said lightly: "Yes, you are not crazy, but what you Chu Xiu did is unimaginable crazy."
As he said that, Chen Rong pointed to the servant behind him and said, "Wang Er, Mr. Chu Xiu seems to have no impression of you anymore. Please say a few words and let Mr. Chu Xiu recall it well."
The servant named Wang Er stood up and laughed and said, "Young Master Chu Xiu, I remember clearly the scene when you were seriously injured by a knife in Nanshang Mang Mountain.
At the beginning, it was Ma Kuo who helped you kill. I ran away quickly and escaped by chance. Now, you are actually blatantly bringing Ma Kuo with you. This courage is not ordinary."
Chu Xiu closed his eyes, and he finally knew where the problem was, but this could only be said to be a coincidence, a helpless coincidence.
Chu Xiu chose Ma Kuo to help him, because Ma Kuo is good at strength and bold and meticulous.
The second is because Ma Kuo has almost never taken action in Beishangmang Mountain. Although he has taken action several times in Nanshangmang Mountain, he has not left any survivors.
The only time someone knows about the relationship between Ma Kuo and Chu Xiu was the time when Ma Kuo first met Chu Xiu, when Chu Xiu hired Ma Kuo to help kill Lian Lao San.
Even the number of bandits under Lao San's command was a bit hard, so Ma Kuo only defeated him and killed some people, but did not kill them all.
Moreover, Chu Xiu did not consider this at that time, because even the people under Lao San were bandits, so he didn't dare to enter Tongzhou Prefecture easily.
Unexpectedly, there was such a person among them. Not only did he return to Tongzhou Prefecture, but he also joined the Shen family. He was attracted by Chen Rong and finally pointed out Ma Kuo's identity.
All of this can only be said to be a coincidence, so Chu Xu is in trouble.
Opening his eyes, Chu Xiu sat down again and said in a deep voice: "So what Housekeeper Chen means is that I want a closure fee?"
Seeing Chu Xiu calm down so quickly, his calm face was slightly stunned.
I just refused to admit it, but now I have the exact evidence and put on such a natural look. This mentality alone is considered a character.
Of course, Chen Rong didn't think much about it. His mind was full of the Li family's property. He couldn't help but nod and said, "That's right, Chu Xiu, I advise you to be more tactful and hand over the Li family's property. Otherwise, if this matter is spread, your fate will be even more miserable than your fourth brother Chushen who has been deposed by you!"
Chu Xiu frowned and said, "Butler Chen, you are too difficult. I have given the Li family's property to two-thirds of the family, and even I only have one-third of the hands. Where can I get you two-thirds?"
Chen Rong waved his hand indifferently and sneered: "I don't care about this kind of thing. Anyway, I only look at the result and don't ask about the process."
I'll give you ten days. If I can't see anything in ten days, you should know the result. By that time, Chu Zongguang might kill his relatives for justice!"
Chu Xiu said expressionlessly: "Is this matter really impossible to discuss?"
He stood up, lit Chu Xiu's shoulder, and said proudly: "Others can discuss it, but you, Chu Xiu, are not qualified to discuss it. You only need to remember one thing. Your handle is now in my hands!"
'puff!'
With a light sound, the deep smile froze on his face. He looked at Chu Xiu's short knife that stabbed into his chest with disbelief. He screamed hoarsely and said intermittently: "I... I am the butler of the Shen family. Do you dare to kill me?"
Chu Xiu did not answer his words, but covered the mouth of Butler Shen, twisted the short knife in his hand, and after Butler Shen was exasperated, he pushed him to the ground and looked at Wang Er.
At this time, Wang Er was already scared to death. Seeing Chu Xiu's gaze, he was about to scream, but Chu Xiu threw out a short knife and nailed it to the ground.
Looking at the two corpses on the ground, Chu Xiu couldn't help frowning.
He just killed Butler Chen not because of the ridicule of Butler Chen. He was not so low-level. He was so angry that he lost his mind after being ridiculed by others.
What really made Chu Xiu killer happen was the last sentence of Butler Chen. His handle had already fallen into the hands of Butler Chen!
This time, butler Chen asked Chu Xiu to take two-thirds of the property of the Li family. Chu Xiu could take out one-third. He then calculated the calculation and it was possible to get one-third.
But the problem is that human greed is infinite. Since the butler Shen has held Chu Xiu's handle, if Chu Xiu surrenders for the first time, then there will be a second and third time.
The handle has fallen into the other party's hands, of course, it is the other party who wants to take control of it.
But this kind of thing happened to be something Chu Xiu absolutely could not tolerate, so this calm face must die!
At this time, Gao Bei outside heard the noise and hurriedly pushed the door in. However, when he saw the corpse on the ground, his expression changed suddenly. He was about to exclaim, but immediately covered his mouth and closed the door and whispered in shock at Chu Xiu: "Young Master! Why did you kill the Shen family members!?"
Gao Bei really didn't understand. He was doing well before, but in just a while, Chu Xiu actually killed the Shen family members.
Chu Xiu was not like the kind of irrational person. The Li family was weaker than their Chu family. As long as he managed to deal with the family, Chu Xiu could do whatever he wanted to kill.
But now this is a member of the Shen family, and it is Chen Rong, the butler of the Shen family. Now they are causing trouble!
Chu Xiu pulled out the short knife from the corpse, shook the blood on the knife, and said lightly: "They are seeking death by themselves, threaten me by the matter of Makuo. If you don't kill them, I will be the one who is unlucky."
Gao Bei said with a sad look: "Young Master, I was worried at the beginning that it was unreliable for you to cooperate with those bandits. Now people have discovered it. What should I do now? If you kill the Shen family's butler, it will not be so easy to pass."
The Shen family is not as good as the Li family. Of course, he knew it was not that easy to pass, but when he started killing people, Chu Xiu had already thought of an excuse.
He took out the evidence written by Li Cheng to Chen Rong from Chen Rong's body, which stated that Chen Rong's conditions and Li Cheng's promise were also written.
"Someone has brought excuses to their doorsteps. It's actually simple to pass."
Chu Xiu looked at the corpse and said, "Clean up the corpse and go back to Chu's house with me."
Gao Bei looked at the two corpses on the ground, and Gao Bei was speechless for a while.
The young master is capable of doing things, but he is even more capable of causing trouble.
Chu Xiu returned to the Chu family and immediately found Butler Chen and asked him to invite Chu Zongguang out, and also called all the elders and some managers of the Chu family.
Although Mr. Chen was puzzled by what happened to Chu Xiu, he did not ask much. After all, Chu Xiu's current status in the Chu family is no longer the same.
When Chu Zongguang came to the conference hall, everyone else arrived, but Chu Zongguang's face was filled with a hint of impatient expression.
He hates people who disturb him the most, but Chu Xiu has been the one who disturbs him the most recently.
"What's the matter? Didn't I warn you last time, and I'll let you stop causing trouble."
Chu Xiu lowered his head and said, "I killed Shen Rong, the butler of the Shen family."
"What!?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Chu Zongguang directly crushed the teacup in his hand that he was about to hand to his mouth, and the other elders were also shocked.
Chu Zongguang pointed at Chu Xiu, his hands trembled with anger. He shouted fiercely: "Chu Xiu! What do you want to do? You dare to kill anyone, is it your strength to give you the strength? You even dare to kill the sect leader of Canglan Sword Sect?"
Chu Xiu took out the evidence written by Li Cheng to Chen Rong and said, "My father, please read this. It's not that I want to kill Chen Rong, but that Chen Rong is doing too much!
The Li family wanted to kill me, but Chen Rong was an accomplice, and afterwards he wanted to take care of my Chu family's property of two-thirds of the Li family's property. It was simply domineering and arrogant, and it was outrageous!
The child was so angry that he gave the stern sword. Who would have thought that his strength was so poor that he was killed by me without even blocking it."
When the other elders saw what was written on the paper, they frowned.
To be honest, this Shen Rong did a bit too much. He used their Chu family as bargaining chips, and after the Li family was defeated, he still came to blackmail them, which simply didn't take their Chu family seriously.
But if it were them, even if they were insulted face to face by Chen Rong, they would not dare to kill him.
Although Chen Rong is only the butler of the Shen family, his status in the Shen family is definitely the first person under the head of the family.
Chen Bai, who joined the Canglan Sword Sect, and Shen Mo, the current head of the Shen family, were both raised by him. Even Shen Mo called him Uncle Rong when he was a child.
Later, Shen Mo took over as the head of the family and killed several elders in succession. The direct descendants of the Shen family were trembling. The status of the Shen family members was really not as high as that of the Shen Rong butler.
