C129 (1/2)
She immediately urged Yuwen Zhi to buy, but Yuwen Xi was not as anxious as her, and asked Shangguan He: ”Can you try it first?”
”I can.” He was easy to talk to.
Yuwen Xi stood at the back and really wanted to laugh. Shangguan He didn't look like a general at all, he didn't look like one at all. He looked like a scoundrel, but if Zi Chuan knew that she was going to sell him the mask he gifted her, would he come killing his?
However, a powerful being like Zi Chuan would probably not care about it.
Yuwen Chang, whose eyes were shining, immediately took over the Human Skin Mask and put it on. She felt that it was completely different from the previous one, feeling that the previous one was simply trash, too terrible.
”How is it? Do you want it? ” Shangguan He lightly tapped his fingers on the table. He had a bit of grandeur, but also a bit of slyness.
From the attitudes of Yuwen Chang and Yuwen Zhi, they could tell that they were definitely satisfied with this Human Skin Mask. Although it didn't match with her looks, it was clear that Yuwen Chang was satisfied when she saw the stunning look on her face in the mirror.
”Yes, name a price.” Yuwen Chang looked at Shangguan He.
”Actually, the price is easy to come by.” Shangguan He dragged his voice, making it hard for others to guess what he was thinking.
Yuwen Xi felt that Shangguan He had the potential to be a cunning merchant, this made the other party's heart clench. First, they let him take the bait, but then they slowly tortured him.
Just as Yuwen Zhi and Yuwen Chang heaved a sigh of relief, Shangguan He suddenly changed the topic.
”If you want this Human Skin Mask, then kneel down and kowtow three times.” His tone quickened and his attitude was cold. It was different from his sloppy attitude from before.
The two of them were caught off guard by this turn of events and did not expect to make such a request.
Yuwen Zhi was stunned for a moment, then became angry, of course he would not do that, to him, without the Human Skin Mask, it would not affect him much, so he would definitely not kowtow.
As for Yuwen Chang, she was feeling conflicted. She wanted to do it, but she didn't want to kowtow.
”I don't have time to waste with you guys, so just leave. I still have to wait for the next customer. There's no need to worry about no one wanting such a good item.” Shangguan He looked at Yuwen Xi and prepared to leave.
And right at this moment, Yuwen Chang kneeled down with a loud thump. She just knelt down and kowtowed, nothing much, compared to her face, it was nothing at all. She only hoped that she could go out and meet people, not hide in a dark house for her entire life.
After three kowtows, Yuwen Xi bumped into Shangguan He, which meant that she could leave after collecting the money. She did not have the time to waste here.
The two of them had practically plundered all the money on Yuwen Zhi and Yuwen Chang's body. Yuwen Chang did not have a single piece of jewelry on him, it was extremely pure, but the precondition was to describe him while wearing the Human Skin Mask. Otherwise, there would be no other words to describe him.
”Tsk tsk tsk, so poor. Just this little bit of silver and jewelry.” Shangguan He tore off the Human Skin Mask and weighed the gold and silver treasure.
”It's good that you have it, but you'll have quite a bit of money after you sell these things. If you don't mind, you can give it to me. I won't mind.” As she spoke, Yuwen Xi was about to go get it, but Shangguan He quickly kept it, ”Don't, half is fine. I put in a lot of effort, I have to save some money for myself.”
Seeing Shangguan He's treacherous look, Yuwen Xi couldn't help but laugh. She didn't expect that Shangguan She would also want to save some money, which was a little surprising.
”Are you going back?” After selling the items, Shangguan He saw Yuwen Xi walking in the direction of her home.
”What else do you want?”
”Go and see if Wen Shan is in the courtyard.”
”Are you interested in Wen Shan? Or are you interested in those three youths? ” Yuwen Xi scoffed.
Shangguan He shook his head, ”I am not interested in their people, I am interested in their lives. Xi Er, have you ever been to a brothel before?”
”Nope.”
Yuwen Xi shook her head. A brothel, wasn't it like that?
”Today, I'll bring you to see a special brothel.”
Special brothel?
How special can it be? Yuwen Xi looked at Shangguan He in doubt. She did not understand what he had meant, even if it was a special brothel, or a brothel, could it even become a red house or a blue house?
However, Shangguan He did not continue speaking after he finished his words. He simply followed her to Wen Shan's courtyard.
The two of them donned their Human Skin Mask once more, and she followed Shangguan He as he climbed over the wall. She realised that Shangguan He was familiar with the place, she didn't even know how many times she had sneaked in, just how the hell this fellow was doing, she was actually very concerned about Wen Shan.
They arrived in front of Jiang Wei's house.
”You can't have fallen for him, right?” Yuwen Xi could not help but ask. She was already looking at Jiang Wei, but she did not see what it was that she liked. Jiang Wei was just quietly reading a book, his clothes were still pink.
