Chapter 61: Kongming City(1/2)
Chapter 61 Kongming City
Dong family.
At this time, the tranquility of the past has returned.
A crisis that was close to genocide made the core executives of this chaebol family deeply aware of the terrifying harm caused by the demon clan.
Even the old man who strongly advocated and resolutely implemented the demon-raising plan himself admitted his mistake.
At the same time, based on the person who was replaced first, it was also found that the root cause of this incident was indeed related to their domestic demon.
After learning from the pain, I decided not to cooperate with the demon clan anymore.
The matter of raising monsters has been completely stopped.
However, there were still some differences regarding the "remuneration" paid to Song Xiao.
It’s not that I think I shouldn’t give it, but that some people think Song Xiao wants too much!
Dong Xueqi did not take out the list, she wanted to keep the man she liked a secret.
So I only told the approximate amount of the "remuneration"——
About three thousand kilograms of crystal stones!
This is so scary.
Even if the entire Dong family's crystal reserves were exhausted, they would not be able to produce so much.
After all, this is a consumable item, and there are many practitioners in the Dong family.
Unless you also take out what you have in your hands, but if that is the case, everyone's practice will definitely be affected.
No one is willing to agree.
This means that the Dong family still needs to come up with a large amount of cash for the purchase.
Based on a rough calculation, the funds required... are also an astronomical amount.
In other words, even a chaebol of the size of the Dong family would be a little exhausted after paying this fee.
An aunt of Dong Xueqi came to the old man and complained: "Ancestor, our family is not the kind of ungrateful people. Yes, Mr. Song did save our family. No matter how we repay him, it is not an exaggeration. But our family also needs to survive and develop.
Ah, if we really give him such a huge fortune, our family..."
The old man waved his hand and did not let this junior continue to speak, and said slowly: "You were right before, he saved the Dong family, no matter how much he repays, it is not enough. What he said later is too out of order."
"But……"
"Nothing but, I can tell you that these are not what Mr. Song asked for, they were promised by me." The old man said calmly, but he did not push this matter on Dong Xueqi.
The girl's status is not low, but her qualifications are too low to hold down these elders.
Once word spreads, it is likely that Dong Xueqi will be slandered as someone who cheated on others and emptied her wealth for a man.
This is unfair to Dong Xueqi, and it is also easy to anger that promising young man.
The gain outweighs the loss.
So the old man simply took the matter upon himself.
Not only that, he also contacted Dong Xueqi and said that no matter what method he used, he must have a good relationship with Song Xiao. The closer the better!
"The Dong family has no way out now." The old man looked at the outstanding great-grandson in front of him and said seriously: "You are all human beings, but your vision is still a bit narrow. Do you feel that relying on those who are in your body?
The Jindan disciples in the special area...can sit back and relax?"
Being criticized by the ancestor, Dong Xueqi, the aunt, blushed somewhat, but she still said: "Ancestor, isn't it? The crisis in our family this time is mainly due to the lizard people with ulterior motives sneaking into the family, otherwise..."
"Otherwise, people will use other methods to infiltrate the Dong family and successfully control all the senior officials. Do you really think that there are no golden elixir-level people among the lizard people? You guys have been going smoothly for too many years," the old man sighed,
"It won't be long before a real storm comes.
Only then will you children understand that your ancestors decided to raise demons back then so that the family could rise, and now they choose to befriend Mr. Song at all costs so that one day... this family can survive!"
Aunt Dong Xueqi was a little surprised: "Is the matter already that serious?"
The old man waved his hand: "Go and tell other people who have ideas in their hearts what I say."
Aunt Dong Xueqi left doubtfully.
The old man then picked up the phone and called Dong Xueqi.
He already liked this real junior, but now he likes him even more, and even his voice has become gentler.
"Little Qiqi, how did things go?"
"Haha, ancestors, I am already twenty-eight years old this year, and I am no longer little Qiqi." Dong Xueqi smiled coquettishly on the other end.
"You kids are all babies in my eyes," the old man joked, "By the way, have you contacted Mr. Song in the past two days?"
"He went to the special zone with Mr. Li from the capital. Ancestor, I just heard about a big event. Mr. Li and Song Xiao encountered a strong lizard man blocking the door at the entrance..."
The old man was silent for a while and said: "Little Qiqi, please don't leave the capital during this period and find a safe place to stay."
"Ancestor, do they really dare to come in?"
"It's hard to say, but it never hurts to be on guard. In addition, I kept the matter of purchasing materials for Mr. Song a secret."
"Thank you, ancestor!" Dong Xueqi was very happy, explaining that her decision at that time was also approved by her ancestor.
"My ancestors should thank you," the old man said, and reminded him, "I have already placed my treasure on Song Xiao. Girl, you have to work hard."
"Don't worry, ancestor, I will become good friends with him!" Dong Xueqi readily agreed.
After hanging up the phone, he threw himself on the bed a little depressed.
Sleeping with Song Xiao’s plan is a long way to go!
…
Special area.
Kongming Mountain, outside Kongming City.
Song Xiao followed Lao Li and looked at the majestic and majestic ancient city in front of him.
The city wall made of black boulders is nearly a hundred meters high, extending from the middle city gate to both sides for more than ten miles.
Even in the human world, if it stretches for ten kilometers, it is not considered a small town.
There are nine gates on this side of the city wall, one large, eight small, and the one in front of them at the moment is the largest gate in the middle.
"Master Bai, when was this city... built?"
"About a thousand years ago..." Lao Li said.
"Does it belong to a certain force?"
"It used to be, but now there is no city lord."
"very nice!"
Lao Li was a little melancholy and tilted his head to look at Song Xiao: "What a shit, in order to bring your kid here to gain knowledge, do you know how much I sacrificed? You can't even play games in this rotten place!"
Song Xiao pouted: "Being tortured every day, what's the fun?"
Lao Li: "That's because my teammates are too weak. It's like my average combat power has been infinitely lowered when I take you with me now. I'm very powerful!"
Just talk about games, what are you doing to me?
However, Lao Li's claim that he has a high level of gaming is not an exaggeration. After all, Song Xiao has seen Lao Li's five kills with his own eyes.
He suddenly asked with some wickedness: "Have you ever played your own character?"
Lao Li looked disdainful: "While I like to play with myself as much as you do, I also play with others."
Song Xiao: "..." No, since when did I play with myself?
Then Lao Li took Song Xiao into Kongming City. In his words, this was a relatively prosperous market in a special area.
If you can't buy something here, it's hard to buy it anywhere else.
The materials in Master Shixian's eyes are not the same as those listed by Song Xiao's sister Feitian Fairy.
In Lao Li's opinion, what kind of magic circle can a young guy like Song Xiao understand?
He also knew Song Xiao's master, and knew that the old man was top-notch in alchemy, weapon refining, and all kinds of miscellaneous knowledge. However, in terms of the magic circle, he was not as serious as the fake one in Luoguxiang Siheyuan.
He really brought Song Xiao here just to bring a junior to gain knowledge.
After all, I am on the Genius List, and I will have to come here sooner or later in the future. It is necessary to get to know the special world of the "Special Zone" as early as possible and understand the various rules here.
As for the magic circle materials to prevent others from seizing the body, he was collecting them as he was serious.
I never counted on Song Xiao!
He was a free and easy man. After taking Song Xiao into the city, he immediately found a tavern.
Although you can't play games in this place, the wine and women are still good.
Kongming City is indeed prosperous. Along the way the two of them walked, there were various stalls everywhere, and the sounds of hawking came and went——
"Enlightenment Tea, this year's new tea! It only costs thirty kilograms of crystal sand for one penny!"
