Chapter 242 Accident and Compensation Contract
Seeing Huade's performance, Tang Zhen sighed slightly.
Excellent opportunities are right in front of you, but Huade misses them time and time again. It is indeed a pity.
The evil spirit stall owner's recruitment is actually to guide Huade and help him embark on the path of transcendence as soon as possible.
However, from Huade's point of view, this scene may not be a surprise, but a terrifying and terrifying shock.
He was repelled out of fear and subconsciously avoided transactions, which was actually quite normal.
However, there are many opportunities, and you must take the initiative to fight for them. Once you miss them, it will be difficult to encounter them.
Tang Zhen brought in Huade's identity and knew the truth, thinking that this opportunity should not be missed.
But looking at Huade's appearance, it was obvious that he was planning to leave the Dreamland Ghost Realm.
Seeing an excellent crop unable to thrive, Tang Zhen would definitely not allow it.
Not to mention that through observation, he discovered that Hua De had excellent bones and was a rare cultivation genius.
Tang Zhen had previously planned to select a few aborigines to be trained and make them role models that everyone aspired to follow.
With the guidance of role models, his enthusiasm for practice will become higher, and Tang Zhen will be able to harvest more leeks.
This time he met Huade and met the plan conditions, so Tang Zhen was ready to give him a try.
But in a flash of thought, Tang Zhen appeared in the ghost realm of dreams, with flowing white hair and an antique vase in his hand.
Walking in the middle of the street, I bumped into Huade who was in a hurry.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
The two sides collided with each other, took two steps back, and then heard the sound of objects falling to the ground.
"Wow!"
The beautifully shaped ceramic bottle fell to the ground between the two of them and was broken into a pile of fragments.
"broken!"
Huade was startled, and then his heart tightened, and he suddenly felt something bad.
He could clearly feel that the vase that fell on the ground was also exuding a biting chill.
Just taking one look at it makes you feel like you are being cut by a knife, and your eyes can't help but shed tears.
The extraordinary items on the stalls all have such a cold aura. The colder they are, the more expensive they are.
Judging from the smell of the vase, the price must be extremely high, and it is definitely not something that can be bought with ten longevity coins.
But this item fell to the ground and broke into pieces because of his own fault.
If you damage other people's things, you must pay the cost. This is a matter of course.
If you put it somewhere else, you might be able to cheat or find ways to escape.
But in the ghost land of dreams, Hua De really didn't have such courage.
If he dares to escape, he will definitely be intercepted and his situation will become worse.
At this moment, he was in a state of confusion, secretly complaining that he was not living up to expectations. He really shouldn't have gotten into trouble because of his panic.
Things have happened, and there is no point in blaming yourself too much. It is better to solve the problem first.
Hua De thought of this, took a deep breath, and looked at the white-haired young man in front of him.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to bump into you..."
Before he finished speaking, the white-haired young man opposite him waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to explain.
"I know, you definitely didn't mean it."
Hearing this, Hua De felt happy and felt that the other party seemed to be very reasonable.
The white-haired young man continued: "You had a panic look on your face, as if you were avoiding something, so you didn't pay attention to people when you walked."
Huade nodded, that was indeed the case.
Just because of fear, he wanted to leave the Dreamland Ghost Realm quickly, without even noticing the person coming from the other side.
This was an accident, he really didn't do it on purpose.
"But this vase was indeed damaged due to your collision. Even if you don't bear full responsibility, you must at least compensate for half of the loss."
Hua De opened his mouth, wanting to defend himself, but in the end he sighed.
The incident started because of him, and there was no possibility of escaping. The white-haired young man was also reasonable and only asked him to compensate for half of the loss.
But even if it was half of the loss, he might not be able to compensate.
"Can you tell me how much this vase is worth?"
Hua De took a deep breath and asked in a trembling voice.
If the compensation was just money, he wouldn't be so scared. The key to the problem is that the vase was not purchased with money.
"One hundred and fifty-six longevity coins are counted as one hundred and fifty. You and I will each bear half. You need to compensate me for seventy-five longevity coins."
When the white-haired young man said this, he showed a pained expression.
"Seventy-five longevity coins!"
Although he was mentally prepared, Hua De was still frightened by the price and couldn't help but exclaimed.
Seventy-five longevity coins are equivalent to seventy-five years of longevity, which is the life of a healthy and long-lived person.
It is necessary to trade with eight people to collect seventy-five longevity coins, and the buyer also needs to pay a huge price.
Even if Huade betrays Yang Shou, he can only get ten longevity coins, and there is still a gap of sixty-five coins.
This is how to do?
Hua De was so confused, his eyes were blurred and dizzy, he didn't know what to do at all.
Seeing Hua De's appearance, everyone onlookers sneered, knowing that this rookie would definitely not be able to afford compensation.
There are several people among them who came together with Hua De, but they are watching quietly at the moment.
It seems that this matter has nothing to do with them.
It's no wonder that the other party was there, after all, they just met by chance, and Hua De took the initiative to leave the team, severing the last trace of the relationship.
When Huade got into trouble, they were afraid to avoid it, so how could they take the initiative to get involved?
Passers-by were talking a lot at this moment. Some people pitied him for his misfortune, others laughed at his carelessness, and others sneered at him, saying that he simply could not afford to pay such a large sum of money.
Hua De also knew very well that he couldn't afford to pay for it now, so he could only bite the bullet and said to the white-haired young man: "I'm sorry, I don't have that much money to live, and I can't afford to pay for it now."
Hearing this, everyone nearby burst into laughter.
Most of the aborigines who were watching could not afford such a large sum of money for their longevity, but that did not stop them from laughing at Huade, the unlucky guy.
"I know you can't afford to pay, but you have to pay, so you have to sign a contract with me and work hard to earn life money to compensate for my losses.
Because I can't pay it all at once, and you have to pay a certain amount of interest, I decided to charge you a hundred years to live and pay it off within a year. Now I'm asking you if you accept it? "
The white-haired young man made a condition, stared at Hua De intently, and issued a warning at the same time.
"This is already the most lenient condition. You'd better not refuse, otherwise you will definitely regret it."
Hearing the white-haired young man's warning, Huade could only smile bitterly and express his acceptance of the compensation plan.
To be able to buy such a treasure must have a very profound background. If you don't know how to appreciate it, you will definitely suffer brutal revenge from the other party.
He is just a lonely man, weak in strength, and still in mortal form. He has no extraordinary strength, so how can he possibly defeat his opponent?
Choosing to accept your fate and obey the other party's arrangements is the most correct choice.
"A smart approach can save you a lot of suffering."
While the white-haired young man was talking, he took out a piece of yellow paper with skin-like textures on it.
"Human Skin Contract!"
The onlookers exclaimed, recognizing the origin of the yellow paper.
According to the description of the stall owner, this is a very special piece of human skin that has been carefully refined and used as a carrier for writing contracts.
If someone violates the contract, evil spirits will punish them, giving the violator a fate worse than death.
This item is not cheap, costing five longevity coins each, but it is very popular.
The powerful people in the outside world like to buy this kind of human skin contract for use in some special occasions.
They do not believe in the promises of human nature, but rather believe in the human skin contract with extraordinary effects.
Huade didn't know what the human skin contract did, but looking at everyone's reactions, he knew it wasn't simple.
He had no choice but to take the contract and leave his bloody fingerprints on it.
As the dim light flashed, the contract was signed and completed.
