Yangshou draws cards, starting from reality gamification

Chapter 138 Li Ruoxi's Bet
The white coat waved a fist with all his might.

But after hitting Su Mo, he retreated backwards.

Feel the sharp pain from the back of your hand.

The expression on her face was suddenly shocked to the extreme.

The punch just now didn't seem to hit the human body.

Instead, it hit a mountain.

That kind of grandeur, that kind of unbreakable.

It was simply beyond her comprehension.

Even if her strength is increased by ten times, she will definitely not be able to break through the defense.

She finally understood the handsome young man in front of her.

In fact, it has far stronger strength than her.

Don't say it's her.

Even the dead shopkeeper is far inferior.

Under such circumstances, there was no need for him to call people over to encircle and suppress them.

He alone is enough to take down the stronghold here.

In other words, those people outside were not actually attracted by him.

Through the previous shots, the white coat quickly sorted out the current situation.

Su Mo didn't care about the white coat's offensive.

The opponent's little attack was not even a tickle for him.

In fact, after seeing the corpse on the ground.

His attention was almost drawn to the corpse.

He came here today to trade the enchanted spirit crystal through the shopkeeper.

Now that the owner of the store is gone, the transaction is naturally impossible to talk about.

And Huo Lingjing is extremely precious.

Even if a reward is offered to the outside world, it may not be possible to find the next transaction partner in time.

This made Su Mo feel a little angry while being depressed.

He looked at the shopkeeper's body.

The corpse appeared to be in his 40s, with an unshaven face and unkempt appearance.

He was wearing a simple gray printed cardigan and a pair of black shorts.

However, there was a big hole pierced through the chest and abdomen of the cardigan.

A large amount of blood flowed out of it, dyeing the white tiled floor beneath him a bright red.

The air was even more filled with a thick bloody smell like rust.

The shopkeeper opened his eyes angrily and clenched his hands into fists.

Obviously, when he was dying, he had already reacted and knew the existence of the attacker.

It's a pity that it was still a bad move, and he died on the spot.

Just looking at the aura revealed by the other party, there is no doubt that it is rank 4.

Then it can be killed in a very short time, even making it impossible for the opponent to counterattack.

The person who strikes is at least level 5, maybe even level 6.

As for the 6th order and above, it is unlikely.

If he really made a move above level 6, he would definitely not be able to react, let alone leave such an expression.

Even if the other party intentionally attacked him face to face, his expression when he was dying would not be pure anger as it is now, but more puzzled.

Because the 7th rank has far exceeded his resistance limit, it is an enemy that he will never be able to win even if he tries his best.

So the question is, why did the murderer kill such an intermediary as him?
Judging by conventional thinking, there is no doubt that it is to kill people and seize treasures.

But people in their line of work are more cautious by nature.

Those that can be traded are generally treasures that are lower than their own level.

In this way, the trade partner will not do anything for this little thing, and his own strength can hold the field.

As for the more important materials like Huo Lingjing, they are not in his hands at all.

Once the news of this kind of treasure far surpassed his own level was leaked, he couldn't keep it at all.

So in this transaction against Huo Lingjing, he was more of an intermediary in the transaction.

The real behind-the-scenes dealer is someone else.

Judging from the transaction process, he came here today to make a formality and let the people behind the scenes calm down.

Then temporarily select the trading location to conduct the transaction quickly.

In this way, there is no fear of being caught by the Shuguang Society.

It can be seen from this program that the treasures held by the shopkeeper are not enough to make the murderer ruthless.

And if it was to torture the shopkeeper for some information, the murderer's attack would never be so aggressive.

In addition, the indoor situation is not too messy, and there is not even any trace of searching.

This looks more like a simple vendetta.

Su Mo's thoughts flashed, and he made various guesses in an instant.

Don't wait for him to come forward for inspection.

The sound of dense footsteps from downstairs has also approached.

Before the person arrives, the words will fall first:
"The Shuguang Club is doing business, all squatting down with their heads in their hands!"

The white coat crouched obediently in the corner with his head in his arms, so proficient that it made people feel distressed.

Hearing the familiar voice, Su Mo couldn't help but look over.

Sure enough, the next second, Zhang Zhenyu in a gray suit appeared at the door.

Followed by several figures broke into the field of vision one after another.

Most of them are his acquaintances.

"I didn't expect to get together in this place."

Su Mo said a little speechlessly:

"How did you get here?"

At this time, everyone also recovered from the death of the shopkeeper.

Zhang Zhenyu looked at Su Mo and asked anxiously:

"How did he die?"

Su Mo spread his hands:
"He was already dead when I came, so it should be a vendetta."

"Do you know who killed it?"

Su Mo shook his head:

"I haven't seen anyone. Judging from the spots on the corpse, he's been dead for almost two or three hours."

"Fuck! Still haven't caught up?!"

Qian Tao couldn't help cursing in a low voice.

"It seems that there is a lot of inside story here?"

Su Mo pinched his chin and asked:
"Can you talk to me?"

"It's not something that can't be said."

Qian Tao immediately poured out bitter water:
"Presumably you should know that yesterday we were arranged to search for extraordinary materials.

Those supernatural materials are used to lay out the foundation of the formation of the [Great Five Elements Pros and Cons Demon Realm Formation Formation].

The amount of various materials is relatively large, and the categories involved are relatively wide.

In order to be able to find clues related to the rest of the base nodes.

The higher authorities decided to start with raw materials and find out the channels for selling these materials.

Each extraordinary team was tasked with tracking down one or two of the materials.

Make sure you can track down all channels involved in various materials.

After information crossover and comprehensive screening, the key suspects were found.

And when we were searching, we accidentally bumped into Captain Li.

We found that the shipper of several materials was Gu Qing.

As a result, as soon as he came over, he had turned into a corpse.

In this case, it might be that the secret travel agency sent someone over to kill the grass and roots. "

"I guess it should be like this."

Su Mo nodded, and a trace of regret rose on his face:
"I should have come here a few hours earlier if I knew that.

In this way, not only can the transaction be successfully concluded, but also the spirit crystal of confusion can be obtained.

Maybe it can save his life, so that it can be traced to other formation base nodes later. "

Zhang Zhenyu stood up from the ground, rubbed the center of his eyebrows slightly, and said with a heavy expression:
"I've just had a rough reading of his dying memory.

Because the opponent's level is higher than mine, the information I read is not much.

What can be known is that he was making a deal with two people before he died.

A blond haired man with a nose ring, white T and black pants, looks like a young man in his twenties.

The other one is extremely strong, 1.9 meters tall, with a string of blue Buddhist beads hanging around his neck, he should be a middle-aged man.

Judging from the information read from the memory fragments, the two parties knew each other, and there should have been a transaction before.

According to my guess, this time the case should be committed by an acquaintance, and Gu Qing had no time to prepare for the sudden attack of the other party.

In addition, I also saw what they traded, which was clearly a whole box of Tengyang grass.

It is one of the extraordinary materials that we tracked down to lay out the base of the array.

Those two people are likely to be members of the secret travel agency! "

Hearing this, everyone was suddenly shocked.

Su Mo's eyes also froze slightly.

He knew Tengyang Grass, which was a rare medicinal plant that could only be produced in certain special environments in the source world.

It is generally used for pharmaceuticals, and you only need to add a little bit each time you refine it.

Basically, one Tengyang grass can refine thousands of pills.

A whole box deal like this can definitely be considered a big deal.

If they had done similar transactions before.

Then it is only natural that Gu Qing would have trust in these two people.

In this way, it is not difficult to understand why he was attacked and killed on the spot, so that he could not fight back in time.

And from this, Su Mo deduced a new conclusion——

Since the other party bought Tengyang Grass again, it means that their new formation foundation is still in the process of being arranged.

And they made a bold move to kill the supplier, which shows that the entire formation is almost completed.

There is no need for more Tengyang grass.

Coming to this conclusion, Su Mo's heart sank suddenly.

Reminiscent of what Bai Wuyuan said at the beginning, [The Great Five Elements Blood Field is formed into an array], after forming an array, it is enough to sacrifice 300 million people.

On the basis of the [Big Five Elements Blood Field Formation Formation], the [Big Five Elements Front and Reverse Demon Field Formation Formation] was deduced and developed. Once it can be successfully implemented, God knows what kind of hell scene the city under your feet will turn into?
Su Mo frowned, squatted down next to Gu Qing's corpse, and reached out to press the forehead of the corpse.

Soon, countless messages appeared before his eyes.

Without waiting for him to delve into the clues that exist in it.

Suddenly, a crisp voice came from the front right:

"Little brother, are you the Su Mo that my brother said? I look more handsome than the information!"

Su Mo turned his head to look.

The first thing I saw was a pair of cute lo shoes.

Further up are finely textured white stockings.

Followed by a pink plaid skirt.

Then to the white short-sleeved shirt.

Then there is a delicate and small face.

There was a vague familiarity between the brows and eyes.

"You are Li Jun's younger sister...Li Ruoxi?"

Su Mo asked in surprise.

He did not expect to meet the Li family brothers and sisters in this place.

"It seems that the text message still plays a role."

Li Ruoxi said with a smile:

"I was going to treat you to dinner, but it turned out that you were practicing in seclusion.

I thought I might miss it, but I didn't expect to meet it here.

You can no longer shirk this meal. "

"Actually, I haven't done anything to brag about.

At that time, Captain Li, even if I wasn't there, it's impossible for him to have an accident.

You don't have to thank me for that at all. "

Su Mo stood up and replied.

Li Ruoxi shook her head:
"It is up to the beneficiary to decide whether to be grateful or not.

Even if it is your unintentional act, if it makes others feel grateful, then it is worthy of gratitude.

Not to mention that the ones you do are not as simple as you say.

It is true that nothing will happen to my brother, but there will inevitably be trauma or regret.

Being able to avoid these, he may go more smoothly when he breaks through to level 7 in the future.

Isn't that something to be thankful for? "

"Then it's up to you."

Su Mo smiled and said:

"I eat a lot in one meal."

"Don't worry, you must be full."

Speaking of this, Li Ruoxi seemed to think of something again, and asked:
"By the way, I have a deal here, I wonder if you are interested?"

"What deal?"

With a gentle smile on Li Ruoxi's face, she said harmlessly:

"My brother is going to celebrate his birthday next month, and it just so happens that I have nothing to give him here.

So I plan to trade with you the no lightsaber in your hand.

I remember he was quite interested in this sword before.

Of course, I am not buying and selling by force.

Plus you've helped my brother several times.

So I plan to exchange your non-light sword with three high-level magic weapons.

I don't know what you want? "

Zhang Zhenyu and others on the side were almost dumbfounded when they heard this.

The three instruments are all high-level.

In the end, it was only used to exchange for a middle-level peak magic weapon.

Is this fucking a deal?
Is there such an outrageous deal in the world?
Even that non-lightsaber is known as the strongest war sword below level 7.

But no matter how strong it is, it is still below level 7!

At most, it will be used by the Juggernaut at the peak of Tier 6.

It's not suitable even for Tier 7.

As for high-level instruments, they can normally be used up to level 9!

Considering that it is difficult to break through the Saint Realm, it can even be said that this is a weapon that can accompany you for a lifetime.

One piece counts as one piece, and it is extremely precious.

You must know that there are many high-level transcendents who are not very wealthy, and they still use middle-level magic weapons.

Not to mention that you can get high-level artifacts below level 7.

That is basically the privilege of the children of aristocratic families and top geniuses!

But even so, it would be a big deal for them to have one in their hands.

Three...that's really unthinkable.

Qian Tao swallowed hard, his eyes almost burning when he looked at Su Mo.

This guy is still hesitating?
What is there to hesitate about riding a horse?
He wished he could agree on the spot for him!
On the other side, Li Jun was also looking at Su Mo.

But his eyes dodged a little.

Because he always felt that his sister was a bit unjust in doing so.

Make him feel very awkward.

But at the same time, he knew that there was no way for him to dissuade Li Ruoxi.

This girl has been very assertive since she was a child.

If you recognize something, you will plunge into it, and even nine cows will not be able to pull it back.

So from the beginning he gave up persuasion.

Originally thought that Su Mo could just escape this while taking advantage of his retreat.

By the time the other party leaves the customs, maybe they have all returned to Yaoguang City.

Who would have thought that they would meet in this place?

It was damn luck.

Now Li Ruoxi offered to make a deal.

For a moment, he didn't know whether he wanted Su Mo to agree or refuse.

In the past 20 years, his young master Li's mood has never been so complicated as it is now.

In the quiet and stagnant atmosphere, Su Mo suddenly spoke, breaking the silence:
"I can feel your love and care for my brother, and I can also appreciate the importance you attach to Wu-Lightsaber.

Let alone three high-level instruments, there is only one, and I take advantage of this advantage.

Originally, I should have agreed to this deal, but unfortunately I am using this sword too easily now.

There may be no external transactions for at least half a year.

If after half a year, you still have such a need, then I will gladly accept it. "

"Why half a year?"

Li Ruoxi asked in a little surprise.

Su Mo calmly replied:

"After half a year, I may not be able to use this sword anymore."

Everyone on the field understood his subtext.

But whether it is Li Ruoxi who just met, or Zhang Zhenyu and others who have been in contact for a long time.

He didn't take his words seriously.

The reason is very simple, breaking through to level 4 within two months is still within the acceptable range of everyone.

Trying to break through to level 7 in only half a year is almost impossible.

Not to mention that the practice of a transcendent becomes more and more difficult the further you advance.

The second promotion ceremony alone is ten times more dangerous and complicated than the first one.

How many people were firmly stuck at the 6th level peak by the promotion ceremony.

If you don't lay a solid foundation, once you choose to break through, you will end up dead.

However, although she thought Su Mo was bragging from the bottom of her heart, Li Ruoxi did not refute in public, but replied with a little regret:
"In half a year, my brother's birthday passed early, and it doesn't seem to make much sense to change it by then."

After thinking for a while, her eyes fell on Gu Qing's corpse, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she asked:

"How about this, why don't we make a bet?"

"What are you gambling?"

"Just bet on who can track down the murderer first and bring those two guys back.

If I win, you agree to make a deal with me, and exchange the non-lightsaber for my three high-level magic weapons.

If you win, then I will give you a high-level magic weapon for free. "

Hearing the content of the bet, everyone around was shocked——

You call this a bet?

Didn't you send the magic weapon on purpose?

You must know that no matter whether you win or lose, Su Mo will always make money without losing money!
Win to get a high-level magic weapon.

It will be even worse if you lose, and you will be directly exchanged for three high-level magic weapons.

Even a child from a wealthy family can't be so prodigal!
At this time, I don't know how many people hope to replace Su Mo's position and take the initiative to participate in the bet.

Zhang Zhenyu and Qian Tao looked at Su Mo eagerly.

Su Mo shook his head unexpectedly and said:

"I can't participate in this bet."

"Oh? Could it be that you are afraid that you will lose to me in the investigation?"

Li Ruoxi raised her slender eyebrows like willow leaves, and said excitedly.

"No, I can't bear to see you lose a high-level magic weapon to me."

Su Mo looked pitiful, as if he completely took this as a fact.

Li Ruoxi listened, but almost laughed angrily:
"If it's about other things, such as fighting, if you say I can't beat you, then it's still possible.

But as a fifth-level beast master, I can control thousands of beasts, and any trouble can't escape my eyes and ears.

If we take solving the case in front of us as an example, I never believe that anyone can catch the murderer faster than me.

If you are worried that you will lose, and you are afraid of losing that non-lights sword, you might as well just say it, I never force others.

But if it is an excuse that I will definitely win, please forgive me for not accepting it! "

Li Ruoxi was so aggressive that she looked like an irritated cat.

Su Mo, however, remained silent and did not respond.

Seeing this scene, Li Jun quickly stood up to smooth things over and said:
"Shouldn't it be forgotten? Everyone is here to investigate the case, so we should work together, help each other, and find the murderer as soon as possible, instead of causing internal conflicts here."

"My stupid brother, you are wrong in saying that."

As soon as Li Jun finished speaking, Li Ruoxi immediately continued:
"It is precisely because of internal competition that the speed of solving cases can be further promoted.

You also want to catch the murderer as soon as possible, right?

Then you shouldn't stop me.

I haven't been as motivated as I am today for a long time. "

In Li Ruoxi's eyes, it was as if a raging fire was burning.

Then, she seemed to think of something, rolled her eyes slightly, and asked Su Mo with a hint of cunning:
"I remember you said that you came here to trade the Confused Spirit Crystal. Presumably you are preparing for the second promotion ceremony of the Juggernaut?"

It's not a shame to be left or right.

Su Mo nodded in response, as an admission.

Li Ruoxi listened, but the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and she continued:
"It can be seen that you have a big picture and vision, and you know that you will start preparing for the subsequent promotion from now on.

Many people actually ignore the difficulty of the promotion ceremony, and it takes a lot of time just to collect materials.

Waiting to be promoted to level 6 before looking for it will not only delay your own practice progress, but also consume more energy. "

Instead, she looked at Su Mo and continued:
"If I'm not mistaken, the agent named Gu Qing is dead now, it should be very difficult for you to find a second Confusion Spirit Crystal in a short time.

And if you are going to enter the junction next month, in a closed area, it will be even more difficult to obtain the bewildering spirit crystal from the outside world.

You should have thought about all these, right? "

Su Mo nodded and silently agreed.

This is exactly what he finds more difficult now.

Then he heard Li Ruoxi say:

"I can change the content of the bet, as long as you can catch the murderer before me, then I will give you a charm crystal.

But if I win, I won't force you to trade the lightsaber with me, as long as you admit in front of me that your skills are inferior to others.

Now, are you still going to reject this bet? "

Su Mo listened, a bright light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and said in a concentrated voice:
"I have seriously reminded you that if you bet against me, you will definitely lose. Are you really determined to bet on this condition?"

Li Ruoxi smiled confidently:
"When I was growing up betting against others, I never lost!"

Su Mo listened and sighed:

"In that case, I will accept your bet.

But to be fair, to prevent others from saying that I am a bully.

If I win this bet, I don't need you to give me the Chaos Spirit Crystal for free.

Instead, it will use a high-level magic weapon to trade with you.

If you do not agree to this condition, there is no need to bring up the bet. "

Looking at Su Mo with an extremely serious expression, Li Ruoxi felt a little aggrieved for no reason.

As the eldest lady of an extraordinary family, when had she been wronged like this?

It's too late for others to be overjoyed when they hear that she has made such a lucrative bet.

Only this guy pushes and blocks in every way.

But she still couldn't answer:
"Okay, then as you wish, the conditions of the bet are settled like this, and everyone present will be our witnesses."

Zhang Zhenyu and others listened with complicated eyes.

This is the first time they have seen such a bet that they are afraid that their opponent will suffer losses.

"In that case, I'll take the first step."

With that said, Su Mo strode outside without any hesitation.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhenyu and Qian Tao hurried over, and at the same time ordered people to take care of the case scene and Gu Qing's body, and make backup records and investigation reports.

Li Ruoxi looked at Su Mo's leaving back, and gritted her teeth secretly:

"How dare you underestimate me?
Underestimate me as a genius beast master? "

She raised her hand and released two beetles with golden spots on their backs:
"Looking for incense insects, let me go! Find those two murderers! Let that arrogant guy see how awesome you are!"

After the two scent-seekers circled around the room, they quickly vibrated their transparent wings, turned into two tiny golden lights, and quickly swept out.

The brothers and sisters of the Li family quickly followed.
