C6 (2/2)
Everyone suddenly realized that this Zhu fellow had gone far away. There was a burst of restlessness.
The Bai Clan's Vice Supervisor Liao Wuchang came out and asked, ”That old boy ran away, does Hero Wang want to keep him?”
He actually called Wang Tong a hero.
Wang Tong could only smile bitterly. He quietly picked up the silver belt that Bai Jiu had given him and slung it over his shoulder. Then, he turned around and walked straight towards the war horse under the locust tree.
Bai Jiu silently followed.
”Great Hero Wang, you saved my life and solved a calamity for the Bai Clan. I will kowtow to you …” As he spoke, he was about to kneel down.
”I dare not!” I would never dare! ” Wang Tong held him back with one hand and Bai Feng could no longer kneel down.
”Great Hero Wang …”
”Don't call me Master Bai Jiu …” Just call me Wang Tong! ” Wang Tong reluctantly nodded his head in agreement. His expression was solemn and his heart felt like it was being pressed down by a giant boulder.
”Please inform the master of your residence to be on his guard as soon as possible!” Wang Tong said.
”This …” Bai Feng still did not understand and asked, ”Is it really that serious?”
”It's much more serious than you think.” After saying this, Wang Tong mounted the horse.
Bai Feng grabbed the reins of his horse and temporarily stopped him from leaving.
”This... ”Mr. Wang, can you explain it more clearly?” As Bai Feng spoke, he turned around and waved his hand to chase away the four or five people who were watching the show. Then, he turned back and smiled bitterly at Wang Tong. ”Who's looking for us?”
Wang Tong nodded.
”Which way?” Bai Jiu asked.
”Not a single one!” Wang Tong's words were ice-cold as he said, ”More powerful than any of them!”
”This... Good heavens … ”Master!” ”…” Bai Feng's mouth was wide open. He has to have a name, right? ”
”Of course there is. It's just that you don't know that I said it. ” After pausing for a while, Wang Tong continued, ”Not only you don't know about it, I'm afraid no one here knows about it.”
Wang Tong hesitated for a moment, looked at the Bai Clan accountant and said, ”Maybe your lady has heard of it.” He shook his head again. She's too young. ”In any case, please don't go out for the next few days. She's still in charge, so she's much better than those useless officials!”
Bai Feng kept nodding his head, and he nodded as well. In his heart, he was muttering to himself: What kind of ability could a girl like her have? However, since the other party had said so, he could only listen.
”The man surnamed Zhu just now gave Ninth Master a plain letter.” Wang Tong said.
”AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten! ” As Bai Jiu spoke, he took out the piece of paper with the surname 'Zhu' on it from his sleeve.
Wang Tong took the card and unfolded it on the horse's back.
It was a letter written in red ink on a piece of brown paper. Upon careful reading, it was actually a limerick: Ten thousand gold, two thousand gold, counting the total, the white rabbits of the autumnal equinox were really cute, causing the golden rooster to flap its wings.
There was no title, but there were ten cinnabar prints on the bottom of the sentence, a male chicken with a long tail and wings.
After reading it, Wang Tong's expression became even more serious, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
Bai Feng said eagerly, ”I saved you the first two sentences, didn't you want to buy a life with ten thousand taels of gold? I don't understand the last two sentences. ” As Bai Jiu spoke, Wang Tong sighed and said, ”What you have said is very clear.” The white rabbit of the autumnal equinox says the night of the fifteenth day of the eighth month. ”At the end, he said,” If the golden chicken flapped its wings, then the other party would have to personally come and retrieve it. ”
Bai Feng was instantly shocked. He said, ”This... Is that what you mean? ”
”It can't be wrong!” Wang Tong asked worriedly, ”What day is it today?”
Bai Feng counted with his fingers and said, ”Number 4 … Ah... ”No, number five!”
”There are still ten days, but it's urgent enough!” Wang Tong sighed lightly on the horse and said, ”Don't make any noise about this matter. Otherwise, if something unexpected happens, we can only do it secretly. Quickly report this to your master and prepare everything for him!”
Bai Feng was shocked for a moment before closing his mouth. He continued, ”This person must be crazy, even if my master had two coins, if he sold his family property, it would be hard for him to gather ten thousand gold. I am an accountant, so there is no one who knows better than me, maybe he can gather three thousand gold, this ten thousand gold, is simply a dream … Hey, hey, hey... This is something that can't be gathered no matter how much you try.
Wang Tong laughed coldly and shook his head, ”As far as I know, this person has been known for his entire life for his ruthless methods. Master Bai, Ninth Master Bai, you have to inform your master and think carefully about how to deal with this!”
Bai Feng nodded and said, ”I guess that's the only way …” He suddenly dropped his tears and said, ”Mr. Wang, you must try to save my master's life!”
Wang Tong was stunned at first, but then he nodded and said: ”With a real man acting, I will definitely return within seven days. As for whether or not I can save your master, I have no confidence.” In short, I will do my best. ”
When Bai Feng heard this, he knew that among all martial artists and chivalrous heroes, their promises were the most important. He predicted that Wang Tong would not go back on his word.
After this delay, Wang Tong had to leave.
Wang Tong held his horse in a fist, grabbed the horse's belly with his legs, and galloped away.
Bai Feng was dazed as he watched Wang Tong's departing back. Suddenly, a voice came from behind.
