Chapter 900 Debt Collection

Manager Liu's face darkened slightly. The last time he had eight hundred spiritual stones, this time it was only five hundred.

"What, is it too little?" Deacon Ma narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Don't dare, thank you so much, Deacon Ma."

Manager Liu did not dare to say anything, so he could only thank him, took the spirit stone and left.

Then, he found the captain of the guard and cursed: "It's so damnable. This time, Deacon Ma gave three hundred spirit stones, and the oil and water have become less! If we split again, there won't be many coins left."

The captain of the guard sighed: "The current environment is not good, so if you make some money, it will be good! The price is two hundred, and if you find a reason to deduct half of it when the time comes, it wouldn't be bad for each of us to share a hundred."

"That's all."

Manager Liu was filled with hatred and seemed to have been greatly wronged.

Not long after, the hiring price of two hundred spirit stones was announced, and countless small sects gathered, scrambling for the opportunity.

Tiandou City lacks everything, but the most indispensable thing is people who work.

Those low-level mortals and low-level elixir-forming monks are everywhere, and they only have some value when they reach the great perfection of the elixir-forming stage.

Nascent Soul monks have more say and few people dare to bully them.

This opportunity to go out for mining was finally obtained by Qingshan Sect for no other reason than Qingshan Sect being the strongest and most efficient.

They have two mid-stage alchemy formations and one late-stage alchemy formation, plus more than a dozen masters of foundation-building Dzogchen, so no one can compete with them.

"Damn it, I have to work for the Gu family again."

"Thinking of Manager Liu's face, I wish I could beat him to death!"

"There is nothing we can do. The master's two hundred spirit stones were lent to outsiders. We are too poor to take the blame. Now it is difficult to find a way to survive, so we can only endure it for now."

Everyone was angry, scolded, beat their chests and beat their feet, and scolded the Gu family until their heads were bloody, but they had no choice but to accept their fate.

This time, Xu Hei did not go with him. He was still in retreat in the courtyard of Qingshan Gate, refining spiritual stones.

Xu Hei was too seriously injured, and even the efficiency of absorbing spirit stones was greatly reduced, so he could only take it step by step.

…………

After five days.

According to the agreed time limit, Qingshan Sect returned successfully, but they still made excuses and withheld half of their spiritual stones and only gave them one hundred.

"There is something wrong with the quality of this batch of ore, and there is blood splattered on it. This is ominous, so I can only give you half!"

"How dare you bargain for rubbish of this quality? If it affects the young master's weapon refining, can you bear the responsibility?"

"One hundred is the limit of benevolence and righteousness. If you don't want to, just get out!"

After a round of insults, everyone couldn't bear it anymore and stepped forward to fight, but the captain of the guard directly cut one of them with a knife.

The rest of the people were also swarmed by the guards, punched and kicked, and fell to the ground within minutes, vomiting blood and retreating in defeat.

"If the Gu family breaks their word, I will spread the word and let everyone know!" Gu Qianqian gritted her teeth.

"Advertise it widely? If you think it will be useful, just go ahead! I sent you a batch of rubbish ore to make up the money, and you expect to be paid in full. Believe it or not, I will announce it right away, so that your Qingshan Gate will never receive another business!"

Manager Liu pointed at Gu Qianqian's nose, slapped her on the nose, and scolded her angrily.

Everyone is desperate.

The strong have the right to speak and can turn black into white. Their voices are nothing!

Even if someone believes them, so what? As the saying goes, if you don’t do it, others will!

This sense of humiliation and unwillingness spread in everyone's heart. Even if someone stepped on their face, they could only swallow their anger.

If you don’t earn spiritual stones, your cultivation level will decline and you will be unable to survive.

For the sake of survival and dignity, forget it!

"It's too much! It's too much!"

The seriously injured monk had blood pouring from his body, and his eyes were filled with hatred and anger.

The eyes of everyone in Qingshan Gate were filled with hatred.

"Hate me? No! You don't hate me, you just hate that you are not me!" Manager Liu sneered in his heart.

Wasn't he a member of this group of low-level ants? Why haven't you ever hated it or been unwilling to do so? Have you ever talked down to anyone?

But when he stood in this position, everything was different. He understands that as a person at the bottom, he deserves to be oppressed and deserves to be unable to hold his head high.

If everyone can exploit others, who will be the exploited?

"Get out of here within three breaths! This is our Gu family's territory, overtime charges will apply!" the guard captain said with a cold voice, standing with his sword across the board.

The place they were standing was just outside the private residence of a young master of the Gu family, but it was called the Gu family's territory, which showed how arrogant and domineering they were.

Everyone did not dare to stay for a long time, so they could only help each other up and retreat towards the distance.

This was not the first time they had experienced this kind of humiliation, but they had never been so humiliated before.

"The Gu family is so majestic!"

Suddenly, a cold voice came from the distance.

The people supporting him suddenly stopped and stared blankly into the distance at the approaching sound.

No, not one, but two.

One large and one small, one person and one dog, walked towards this side at the same pace. Their voices were clear and loud, echoing in front of the Gu family's door.

After a while, the figure approached.

It is Xu Hei and Hei Huang.

He wears a hat and a black cape on his black and yellow head. He walks upright, like a short monk, but a little too short.

Xu Hei also wore a bamboo hat, covering his face. Although he had an ordinary face, there were eight thousand faces similar to his in Tiandou City, not to mention ten thousand.

But just to be on the safe side, he still covered his face.

No one recognized them except the monks from Qingshan Sect who recognized their aura.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, it turns out to be you!"

Gu Qianqian looked happy. As a pharmacist, she could sense that Xu Hei's condition was much stronger than before, and she could actually sense the fluctuations of spiritual power in her body.

Does this mean that Xu Hei's abolished cultivation has been restored?

However, the fluctuation of his consciousness still does not exist, which is very strange for any monk.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, fellow Taoist black man, everything is fine here. Let's go!"

Seeing Xu Hei's unkind expression, Xu Yanran quickly tried to persuade her that she didn't want anything to happen in front of the Gu family.

Manager Liu didn't care about this. He sneered and said: "The three breaths have arrived. If you don't leave yet, keep the spirit stone!"

He waved his hand, and the guard captain next to him rushed forward and reached out to grab the storage bag at Gu Qianqian's waist.

His movements were extremely fast, as fast as lightning, and it seemed that this was not the first time he had done something like this, specifically picking out people's pockets.

"Click!"

"ah!!"

A sudden scream sounded.

The guard captain's arm was completely broken, and blood spurted out from the broken arm. He covered the broken position, backed away in fear, and looked forward, his eyes full of horror.

Everyone was stunned.
