Chapter 125: Xihu National Master.

The middle-aged man who looked like a butler chuckled when he heard this and said something that surprised everyone.

"Thirty-six thousand taels of gold is equivalent to three hundred and sixty thousand taels of silver. We will give you four hundred thousand taels of silver! Please forget the unpleasantness of today, how about that?"

He glanced at Li An, then turned to ask Xiang Hongxiangyu, "Can your gambling house afford this amount of money?"

This sentence shifted the conflict back to the gambling house.

After saying this, he lowered his posture again with a smile, and said to Xiangge Gina: "Sir, your compensation has increased, so the 180,000 taels of your Royal Highness the Princess should be counted as 200,000 taels to make it an even number."

Obviously, the middle-aged man who looked like a butler recognized Li Ang's identity from his words, which led to the reverse price increase.

This guy is quite sensible, better than Hong Xiangyu!

Li An nodded with satisfaction, agreeing with him. After all, his attention was now focused on the person behind the screen.

Hong Xiangyu gritted her teeth and agreed to the deal.

I thought to myself, the two of them together would be 600,000 taels of silver. Although the gambling house could afford it, it would be a big expense. How could they pay the tribute during the New Year holidays?

He looked up at the middle-aged man with a bad look on his face, feeling helpless.

But he still asked unwillingly: "Who are you? Why are you playing tricks on me like this?"

Ang Lee was speechless after being asked this question.

It was you who brought me to this casino, saying it was more interesting and fun. It was also you who gave me the gambling money and let me play as I pleased.

In the end, you are the one who can't afford to play, and you are the one who took action first, which makes you look like a villain.

Li An did not answer his question, but just said that he was very disappointed and thought about returning to Wanshizhai.

"Sir, the person behind the scenes."

Yan Xiaoyi asked in a deep voice.

In the few breaths just now, he felt an inexplicable pressure, and he almost couldn't help but take out the folded bow at his waist and shoot a few arrows into the screen. However, the ice knife that hit Li An at the end was not very powerful, which was surprising.

(The foldable bow and arrows were made by Yan Xiaoyi at the blacksmith shop after he left the team after entering the city. They are convenient for carrying in the city. His own black gold bow is still in the Wanshizhai.)
"You should be unable to defeat him for the time being."

Although Li An's words did not say anything, they made everything clear. He shook his head at Yan Xiaoyi and said, "Since this person has not shown up, there is no need to worry about him."

Wang Shisanlang, who was standing by, also gave up on killing the young man, and returned to Li An with Hong Kaijia, saying angrily, "How can the true qi still be so powerful at such a long distance?"

Hahahaha, Ang Lee’s hearty laughter was heard.

It was also the first time that he had seen this kind of icy true energy. Li An was amazed by its miraculous effect, so he re-estimated the strength of the person behind the scenes.

There's no need to fight to the death for trivial matters.

He hid his left hand in his sleeve and kept calculating.

At the same time, he was also thinking that this was a real world after all, not like a game with a clear and unchanging main plot. If he continued to think about the original world process, it would not be surprising if he capsized in the gutter one day.

Some unknown changes have occurred in heaven and earth!
After a moment, the divination came out with a result - northwest?
Li An thought for a moment and came up with the answer.

"This innate energy tastes good, doesn't it?" Li An joked as he looked at Wang Shisanlang's slightly stiff right hand.

Seeing this, Shisan Wang said stubbornly: "I was indeed careless the first time I saw him. If I meet him again, I will not let him succeed so easily!"

There was a ruthlessness in his words, which might be the result of his long-term practice of Si Gu Jian. It also made people hear a determination to rather die than live in disgrace. Wang Shisanlang wanted to say something else, but suddenly he was stunned and turned to look at the seat behind him: When did one more person appear here? There was no sound at all!
He couldn't help but take a step back, thinking in his heart, this kind of strength is probably even better than that of Mr.... Could this man be a master?

I saw an old man in thin Hu clothing sitting on a chair with one leg missing. He was stout and was playing with dice in his hand with a curious look on his face. He seemed to be surprised at how such an object could make so many people crazy about it.

His body was stable and was not affected at all by the limp chair under him.

Seeing Li An's gaze looking over, he slowly spoke under the guidance of his Qi: "I am Yelu Xuan, and I am appointed as the National Master of Xihu."

However, these words did not have the desired effect, and no one in the field knew him. The people in the field were just surprised at the old man's identity, and no other expression was made. This made Yelu Xuan very discouraged. He had a childlike personality and laughed heartily and said, "Is he a great master!?"

When everyone heard this, they were stunned and their legs started shaking!

The little princess was surprised and full of hatred. The guard beside her dodged and protected her behind him, looking at the Xihu State Master with vigilance. If there was any unusual movement, he would risk his life to create an opportunity for his own prince to escape.

Although he also understood how likely it was for someone to escape from the Grandmaster's hands.

With this movement, everyone discovered that this guard actually had a martial arts level above the ninth rank.

"Young man, are you Li An?"

Yelu Xuan pinched the small object in his hand with two fingers, and it turned into powder.

A sword box appeared behind Li An at some point, and was being moved to the side of Li An. He placed one hand on it and replied with a smile: "I am Li An."

"What's the matter with you?"

Having said that, a dangerous aura was already rising from his body, leaving no doubt that the sky would fall and the earth would split apart in the next moment!
"My dear, my handsome son."

The little princess was surprised more times tonight than she had been throughout the whole year. She knew that she might not be able to win back the handsome man named Li An.

It would be useless even if we called General Kang who was staying at the post station.

Only the guard had a look of horror on his face, and his right hand holding the knife began to tremble continuously.

These are the two masters? Li An? Isn't that the well-known Mr. Sijue, who was named the Imperial Master of Northern Qi yesterday?

The people in the room fell silent at this time.

The middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper did not change his expression. Hong Xiangyu, on the other hand, was full of bitterness. She thought it was ridiculous that she wanted to subdue such a person. She really overestimated her own abilities.

Yelu Xuan smiled and waved his hand, saying, "I'm not here to fight you. Besides, I may not be able to beat you."

He raised his thumb and pointed behind him with a very sincere expression.

"I just followed the agreement and rescued these people. I didn't mean anything else."

Yelu Xuan had a long face, and he looked so old that it was hard to tell his exact age. He was also very sturdy, which gave people a very discordant feeling. In addition, he was begging for help as a master, which made everyone feel absurd.

"It turns out that there are so many talented people in this Central Plains. No wonder the Southern Qing could conquer the world several times and defeat the Western Hu for more than ten years; no wonder the Northern Qi could firmly occupy the heartland of the Central Plains and enjoy the beauty of heaven and earth!" Yelu Xuan paused for a moment, glanced at Xiang Gejina, shook his head and continued: "But there is no one worth noting in this Northern Barbarian."

"you!"

"Your Highness!"

The guard stopped the angry little princess from continuing to speak to prevent the situation from getting worse.
