Chapter 73: Coercion and Inducement

Du Yuqi shook his head, then turned to look behind him, where there were several large military tents:

"Why don't you go and rest? We will set out early tomorrow morning to rescue Duize's sister, and the place we are going to is even more dangerous than the Saint's Call where the evil dragon is entrenched. ! If you don’t get a good rest, you won’t be able to sleep anymore.”

After listening to Du Yuqi's words, Jeter shrugged and said:

"I'm as energetic as I have been without sleep for two or three days. Boss, when I came out, that Holmes hadn't left yet. He kept following me, as if he had something to say."

Du Yuqi's eyes flashed:

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Let's go! Let's go over and take a look now."

The two went directly to Chang Mi's tent and immediately saw Holmes talking to Chang Mi. At this time, Holmes looked quite old, pale, and hunched over, looking very weak. He was coughing violently, with a look of surprise on his face. He looked a little at a loss. As soon as he saw Du Yuqi come in, he said:

"Priest Du, you came just in time. Master Holmes actually said she would be my servant. What does this mean?"

After Du Yuqi heard what he said, he suddenly felt unbelievable. To be honest, he was very shocked after hearing the news! Who is Holmes? An awakened strong man who has fought against strong men like Feng Lin, such a person is actually willing to be a servant of Chang Mei. When such a thing is spread, people cannot believe their own ears.

However, after Du Yuqi walked a few steps in place, he suddenly showed a look of realization, and then sneered:

"I understand, I understand that a senior like Master Holmes cannot be treated as a servant. I think this is good. You and she should sign a follower's contract, a life and death contract."

After hearing Du Yuqi's words, Holmes' face, which was already pale, turned blue all of a sudden, and his eyes became vicious. I felt that the eyes of the smiling young man in front of him were as sharp as a knife. , it will pierce straight into your heart all of a sudden!

At this time, Du Yuqi had already come to her with a smile, and then waved to the stunned Chang Cheng:

"Come here quickly. Although Master Holmes is old and has just been seriously injured, and her strength is probably seriously damaged, her knowledge is still good. It is not a waste to be your follower. By the way, do you still have a follower quota?"

often:

"some.

"

Du Yuqi looked at Holmes with a half-smile:

"Master Holmes, are you in good health? It seems to have cooled down outside, and the weather is a little bad with strong rain and wind. When I came in just now, I heard people saying that the Ithilien family should have hidden a large amount of wealth, and they were all shouting. You are going to go treasure hunting. You have been in the Ithilien family for decades and have won the trust of the clan leader. Have you heard any rumors? "

After hearing Du Yuqi's words, Holmes suddenly shrank as if a balloon had been popped.

Why did she offer to be a servant for Changmei? The reason is very simple. After being poisoned at this time, it can be said that her strength has dropped significantly. Even if she is cured, she will probably hit the bottom and cannot even cross the threshold of awakening.

At this time, although the Ithilien family has been destroyed, it is still a big piece of fat. There are many people who want to take a big bite in their hearts. If no powerful person comes forward to protect her at this time, she will definitely end up. It is very miserable, and some kind of torture is certain. At the same time, not to mention, all the equipment on Holmes and the wealth in the dimensional ring will be looted.

Why did Holmes bring up the idea of ​​being a servant? In fact, it was to use the fame he had accumulated over the past few decades to bully a simple little girl like Chang Chang who was obsessed with research and not understand, and let her do her own thing in a daze. Just a shield.

And what she has lost is just some false reputation. It is estimated that when the limelight subsides in the past few days and her own strength recovers, she will be able to run away every minute.

However, Du Yuqi saw through Holmes' plan at a glance - so Du Yuqi immediately used his strength to fight. If you want us to act as a shield for you, you can do it, but don't play with us as a false servant. Just be a follower. Of course, it is the kind that is strictly bound by a contract!

In the eyes of outsiders, being a follower is obviously much more honorable than being a servant, because many powerful people like to do this. Asking a few powerful followers to support their homes can give them both face and dignity, but there are many shortcomings. Money-rich people also flock to it.

However, the follower that Du Yuqi asked Holmes to be has the most stringent conditions. Once signed, every time he wants to deal with her, he will have to shed a layer of his skin even if he doesn't die!

If it were Holmes twenty-four hours ago, hearing Du Yuqi speak like this, he would have laughed angrily, and then coldly uttered the word "Go away".

However, times have changed, and now Holmes can only seriously consider Du Yuqi's suggestion. Obviously, with a shrewd person like Du Yuqi here, he should not try to fool him. After repeatedly weighing the pros and cons, Holmes Finally he said miserably:

"My personal belongings must be preserved."

Du Yuqi smiled and said:

"It's impossible for you to keep them all. In this way, if you take out all your property, our group will choose two. This guy Tie Lang is a character who doesn't let go of eagles when he sees rabbits. He will also have to give away two Once the pieces are over, the rest is yours.”

Holmes gritted his teeth and said:

"good."

Then she continued:

"My strength has been greatly reduced now, and I don't have many years left to live. You can ask me to be a follower, but it will last for one year. After one year, you must let me go unconditionally."

Du Yuqi took a deep look at Holmes and suddenly sneered:

"It seems like you haven't figured out the current situation yet. You've been bargaining with me repeatedly. Do you think you can't get along without us? Do you think I'll be easy to talk to?"

At this point, Du Yuqi turned her face and said:

"I changed my mind! Jet, go and search everything on her body, take off the dimensional ring as well, and then drive her out!"

Jett's muscular rod immediately spat out a few pieces of melon seed skin, then strode up eagerly, reaching out directly to grab Holmes's hair. Holmes was shocked and hurriedly fought back, but she There was the opponent of a rude barbarian like Jet, and when he thought about the consequences of being driven out after having his things stripped off, he suddenly choked up and said:

"Stop, stop! I promised!"

After hearing this, Du Yuqi asked Jet to stop. The next step was to ask Chang Chang to make Holmes his follower, and then communicate with Chang Chang privately: If he plays the bad guy, then often he can play the red face. .

Holmes is injured and old, and she doesn't have much remaining value. The most valuable thing should be her experience and experience. In this way, if she stays in the body for three to five years, she will learn from her. It's 7788. In this case, it won't matter even if she is allowed to go back to live in old age. Giving her a hope of freedom will make her more proactive in handling things.

However, I have to take the initiative in this kind of matter. I can let you go if I'm in a good mood, but you can't take the initiative to take it.

After dealing with the Holmes matter, Du Yuqi went to rest. When he got up early the next morning, he had already put together the collected intelligence, and then yawned loudly, his eyes widening. It was red, obviously he hadn't slept all night.

Du Yuqi picked up the information and began to study it carefully. ka.cm Next, she had to wait for news from Mingxi. She had been rescued from the ice and was recuperating, and she was still in Lamy. Si's son's headquarters, it would be best to ask her to help find out whether the things Duize wants can be auctioned.

After studying the information for a while, Xi came in again and told Du Yuqi the good news. That is, after she healed Holmes before, she found that although her strength had declined greatly, it was still quite good. Although she could already summon Of the high-level creatures, only the four primary elves, the mechanical goblin Hedel, and the black knight Sandel are left, but the speed and quantity of summons are far higher than those of ordinary summoners.

After hearing such good news, Du Yuqi was also quite happy, but sighed with regret and said:

"Is there no news from Lin?"

Xi shook her head and said:

"No, according to the people around him, this time Lin completely seemed to have evaporated from the world. He suddenly disappeared. There were no confidants around him. I feel that he should have had a baby in his heart. What a realization, so I decided to make an end. ” 　　 0hyg
