Chapter 82
Luo Han's voice had just fallen, and before Tan Hai could react, a figure suddenly appeared silently at the door of the study.
The sunlight outside shone on the figure, and a narrow shadow was also reflected on the ground of the study.
If it weren't for this shadow, even Wujima wouldn't have noticed that person's existence.
Luo Han's heart trembled and he turned his head suddenly to look at the figure.
But Huo Wu and Wang Zhaojun were also alert as soon as possible.
Seeing Luo Han and others so nervous, Tan Hai laughed and said quickly: "Don't panic, nephew, this is Xu Gongfeng, who comes from the Honour Hall of the Prince He Mansion."
The worship hall? Luo Han's pupils shrank. Duanshan City is a remote town. He has never seen anyone from the worship hall come here for so many years... Could it be that Xu Gong came to Duanshan City because of this sheepskin map?
Xu Gongfeng walked into the study with a expressionless face, took the map from Tan Hai's hand, and said in a deep voice: "I heard what you said just now... Luo Han, who gave you confidence that makes you think that Lord Tan will support you?"
When Luo Han heard this, he quickly stood up and said seriously: "My Luo family lives in the War Heaven Empire. They are the people of the empire. They have never had enough taxes every year. They often send some family disciples into the military camp to serve the empire... Since they are the people of the empire, what's wrong with the empire supporting me?"
"And this map was presented to me by my younger generation with both hands. If Shenwu Tower in the future causes trouble for my Luo family, how could he ignore the city lord?"
Hearing this, Xu Gongfeng was slightly stunned, and then couldn't help laughing.
"well!"
Xu Chongfeng looked at Luo Han up and down, quite satisfied with Luo Han's performance, and even more satisfied that he could take the initiative to hand over the map.
It would be better for him to hand over it, so I wouldn’t go to Luo’s house again!
Xu Gongfeng thought in his heart, then his expression became serious and said, "We have taken it for Lord Tan. The territory of the Zhantian Empire is full of kingdom. Since this treasure appears in the empire, it is naturally the empire's thing, so...!"
Luo Han widened his eyes, as if he was hesitating for a moment, but then his whole body trembled and he hurriedly said, "What Xu Gongfeng said is that this treasure belongs to the empire... I just said that I wanted to take 30% of the treasure, so you just think I'm joking, I don't want it anymore! But, after all, this map was offered by me...!"
Xu Gongfeng raised his hand and smiled and said, "Is it enough to exempt the Luo family from the five years of taxes?"
"Thank you Xu Gongfeng!" Luo Han hurriedly bowed his hand, and his face showed a look of surprise.
Five years of tax revenue is undoubtedly a large amount for the current Luo family. How could Luo Han be unhappy if he could save it in vain?
Moreover, once he receives this reward, he can also dispel the concerns in Xu Chongfeng and Tan Hai, and he will not doubt him any more.
Sure enough, Xu Gongfeng laughed and patted Luo Han on the shoulder: "Young man, you know how to advance and retreat, and you know the current affairs... Not bad, not bad!"
"Xu Gongfeng praised it!" Luo Han paused slightly, and then said, "There is a saying that I don't know whether I should say it!"
"What are you talking about?" Xu Gongfeng said.
Luo Han said: "Then Guo Hanqing has always wanted to take over the treasure, so he has not reported the news of the treasure to the Shenwu Tower General Pavilion... If he knew that the younger generation had given the map to the two, he knew that he could no longer get the sheepskin map. He might not be sure, so he would not be able to ask the strong men of the Shenwu Tower General Pavilion to take action. You have to be careful."
A moment later, Luo Han left the city lord's mansion, and Tan Hai personally sent him out the gate of the city lord's mansion.
After walking far away, Wang Zhaojun reached out and patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief: "Young Master, are you sure Xu Chongfeng and Tan Hai will attack Guo Hanqing?"
Luo Han raised his mouth and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "If I were Xu Gongfeng, I would go to Qingfeng City today!"
"Xiao Wu, go to Qingfeng City first. If what I expected was not bad, today would be Guo Hanqing's death... If Guo Hanqing escaped from Xu Gongfeng and others, you must ensure that he will keep his life and must not let Guo Hanqing leave alive."
"Yes, young master!" Muchihuo smiled slightly, then hugged Luo Han's arm and whispered: "Young master, how can you reward me when I complete this mission?"
Reward? Luo Han blinked: "What reward do you want?"
"I want to sleep in the young master's bed, can I?" As he said that, Buruchiwu stuck out his little tongue and licked Luo Han's ear tip.
On the side, Wang Zhaojun snorted lightly, and a force of ice spread out from the staff.
"Hey? Someone is jealous?" Muchihuo smiled and quickly made a step towards the side to avoid the power of ice that was pouring in.
"Who is jealous of you? I just want to remind you to be reserved in public!" Wang Zhaojun said lightly.
Just now, everything seemed to be going well in the City Lord's Mansion, but every word that made Luo Han extremely nervous and dared not be careless at all.
Because once you say something wrong, it will alert Xu Chaofeng and Tan Hai, and everything Luo Han prepared will be wasted.
Sometimes verbal battles are even more thrilling than fighting with swords.
"But... this feeling of playing with everyone in applause is more fulfilling than killing someone with your own hands." Luo Han chuckled.
......
......
As Luo Han expected, shortly after they left the City Lord's Mansion, Xu Chongfeng, Tan Hai, and several powerful people from the City Lord's Mansion quietly sneaked out of Duanshan City and headed towards Qingfeng City.
On the way, horses were walking quickly, Xu Gongfeng was wearing ordinary coarse cloth clothes and riding at the front. Tan Hai also changed into an ordinary robe and followed closely behind Xu Gongfeng.
"Xu Chaofeng, I always feel that Luo Han wants to use our hands to kill Guo Hanqing!" Tan Hai said.
Xu Gongfeng snorted lightly and said lightly: "Of course he wants Guo Hanqing to die, because only Guo Hanqing dies will not cause trouble for the Luo family again... However, those words Luo Han said before did not lie to us. Last night, I heard the conversation between him and Guo Hanqing with my own ears. Guo Hanqing did not report the treasure to the Shenwu Tower General Pavilion."
But Tan Hai was still a little hesitant, and at the same time recalled what Xu Gongfeng said.
So, Tan Hai said again: "Xu Chongfeng, Brother Qin mentioned the attack on the Shenwu Tower branch. Didn't you decide at that time? Once the Shenwu Tower General Pavilion knew that it was our move, wouldn't it cause trouble for the empire?"
Xu Gongfeng laughed: "At that time, we can only get half a map, so what's the use? Since it's useless, why should we offend Shenwu Tower?"
