The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 20 Hu Weixian's Mission
Yuan Mu laughed and said: "There is no need to keep secret what I want to do here, I made an appointment with someone to buy a treasure."

"Buy baby? What baby do you want to buy again?"

"Of course, I'm a collector. By the way, let me show you the good things I got recently." Yuan Mu raised his head triumphantly, conjuring a cloth bag out of nowhere.

Yang Yang watched him curiously, as if he was juggling, and took out a big millstone-like thing from the small cloth bag.

"Multure disc!"

Yuan Mu carefully placed the small millstone on the table.

Hong Yuan glanced at it, and said contemptuously, "It's just a fake, it's really a treasure."

"Hey, don't be dissatisfied. Although this baby is an imitation. But let me tell you, this is a high imitation among high imitations. It is very powerful and scary."

As Yuan Mu said, he took out another simple big seal from the cloth bag.

"Sifang Seal!"

Watching him fiddling with these two things, Yang Yang felt a little curious in his heart.

"You can really use this thing to fight like it's written in the novel?"

He couldn't hold back in the end, and asked Yuan Mu a question.

"Of course there is no problem. I can tell you that although these two pieces are high imitations, if they are really powerful, hehe..."

Yuan Mu coldly snorted twice triumphantly, and after fiddling with it, he put away the things.

"Don't worry, did you invite that person behind?"

Hong Yuan sat facing the gate, and when she saw a person enter the gate but did not go in, she just stood at the gate and looked around, guessing that this might be the person Yuan Mu wanted to see.

Yuan Mu turned his head to look at the door, then shouted and waved to the man.

After seeing Yuan Mu, this person walked over.However, the expression on his face was extremely cautious, and he was still exploring around while walking.

After he approached, Yang Yang took a closer look at him, and found that this man was of medium build and appearance, and looked very simple.

But since the person Yuan Mu asked to come over, I am afraid that he is not a normal human being.

It's just that Yang Yang doesn't care about whether he's a man or a monster anymore. He doesn't know what he looks like, so he feels more comfortable.

After this person came over, he didn't sit down immediately, but looked at several people.

His gaze didn't stay on Hong Yuan and Yang Yang for long, but only on Gu Menghan for a while.

Seeing him frowning slightly and standing there motionless, Yuan Mu immediately stood up with a smile.

"Hey, these are friends, don't worry. Let me introduce you. This is Lu Fu, my old friend."

Yuan Mu pointed at that person and said to Yang Yang and the others with a smile.

"Hi, my name is Hong Yuan, and I'm the boss here."

Hong Yuan greeted him with a smile, but Yang Yang just smiled and nodded as a gesture.

This man named Lu Ax never let go of his vigilance, but he didn't blame Yuan Mu for anything, he just threw a package in his hand on the table.

"goods?"

Lu Ax nodded.

A smile immediately appeared on Yuan Mu's face, and he quickly opened the package on the table.

The package contained a delicate small wooden box, which looked a bit like an old-fashioned dressing box.

"Pandora's Box, tsk tsk, good stuff, good stuff."

Yuan Mu played with the box for a long time, Yang Yang always thought that he would open the box and see the treasure inside.

But he didn't expect that the box itself was a treasure.

"Hey, you can get this kind of thing? Don't you come from our side?"

After hearing Yuan Mu's words, Hong Yuan looked at the box carefully and asked curiously.

That Lu Ax ignored her, but Yuan Mu answered for him.

"Imitation, how about it, can't you see it?"

It was rare for Hong Yuan not to refute his words, she nodded and said, "If you didn't tell me, I really didn't see it. I said who is so capable, and brought all the treasures over there."

"Have you read it yet?"

Lu Ax stood aside with a cold face, waited for Yuan Mu to play with it for a while, and asked in a deep voice.

"Well, after reading it, the goods are good, let's make a price."

"50."

"no problem."

Yuan Mu didn't even bat an eye, and directly threw a card to Lu Axe.

"There are six 10,000+ in the card, all of which are given to you."

Lu Ax took the card in his hand and looked at it silently, then nodded.

Yang Yang was speechless for a while, could he still see how much money Cary has?

Moreover, he really felt a little strange that a monster exchanged treasures for human money.

You know, the people who can subdue demons are almost extinct now, and it couldn't be easier for these guys to live happily in human society.

After Lu Ax put away the card, he turned around and walked out.

"Hey, wait, I have something to tell you."

Yuan Mu was obsessively playing with the magic box in his hand, when he saw that Lu Ax was about to leave, he immediately put away the box and called to stop him.

"Ok?"

This Lu Ax stopped in his tracks, but only turned his body slightly, frowning and looking at Yuan Mu.

"Hey, there's no other meaning, I just think we still have a chance to cooperate."

After Yuan Mu put away the magic box, he said with a smile.

"Yes, but it's out of stock for the time being." Lu Ax nodded, "I'll let you know when it will be in stock later."

"Of course that's good, but what I'm going to talk about now has little to do with whether you have the goods or not."

Yuan Mu stood up from the sofa and walked towards Lu Fu.

"I want to cooperate with you against certain people this time."

"I am not interested."

As Lu Ax said, he turned his head and walked out again.

Yang Yang had been thinking about Hu Weixian's mission all the time, seeing that Yuan Mu hadn't said anything yet, he felt a little anxious.

But he couldn't speak at this time, so he could only sit on the side.

"If I'm not wrong, your business doesn't seem to be doing very well recently, right? As far as I know, someone is forcing you to make some powerful magic weapons, right?"

Yuan Mu suddenly said a few words calmly, and then sat down on the sofa again, drinking wine.

Yang Yang saw that Lu Ax was stunned for a while, then turned around and walked back.

"I can listen to you, but I don't necessarily cooperate with you."

"No problem, sit down and have a drink first, and talk about other things later."

Yuan Mu greeted Lu Ax to sit next to Yang Yang, and ordered him a drink.

"As far as I know, a group of people should be eyeing you recently, right?"

Lu Ax hesitated for a moment, nodded, and said, "Yes, I don't know them, but they found me and asked me to help them make some imitations of ancient artifacts."

"You promised?"

Lu Ax shook his head: "No, but they have never given up, and they have threatened me a little recently."

Yuan Mu nodded. In fact, he already knew about these situations, and now he deliberately asked Lu Ax to speak out by himself, in order to better discuss cooperation with him in the future.

"Then what do you mean? Do you agree to them, or refuse?"

"I definitely won't agree. It's very difficult to make those things. I'm not sure, and I won't sell them easily."

Yang Yang looked at Lu Fu's resolute face, and unconsciously had a good impression of him.Moreover, the other party's seriousness in speaking and doing things also reminded him of Chi Dun.

"Well, but if you continue to reject them, I'm afraid you will have a hard time in the future, right?"

Yuan Mu guided Lu Ax again, letting him speak out his current needs.

"That's right, there are too many of them. If I don't agree, they may hunt me down."

"Then what are you going to do if I tell you that we want to deal with them?"

Yuan Mu stared at Lu Fu confidently, as if he had already guessed his answer.

Lu Ax hesitated for a long time, and said, "But there are not many things I can do, and at this stage, I really can't make any good magic weapons."

Yuan Mu waved his hand and said, "This is not a problem, and we don't need you to do anything."

Then, he pointed to Yang Yang again: "Did you see this one? He is our captain. We just need you to provide us with some information."

Lu Ax hesitated again, and said, "I don't know much."

"It doesn't matter, as many as there are, after all, we just want to find out more about the situation first. You can rest assured about the rest of the matter, we will naturally get rid of those guys."

Yuan Mu said with a smile, looked at Yang Yang again, and said, "How about it, now you know what Lao Hu's mission is?"

Yang Yang listened to the general idea, but he still didn't understand it very well.

From the conversation between Yuan Mu and Lu Ax, he guessed that Hu Weixian probably asked him to deal with a criminal gang.

It really wasn't a good thing, the dead fox seemed to have no good intentions for asking me to do such a dangerous thing.

Yang Yang complained a few words in his heart, but did not answer Yuan Mu's question.

"Hey, since Mr. Gu is here today, I think we can discuss it together."

Yuan Mu also ignored Yang Yang's reaction and suggested directly.

"I'm not interested."

Gu Menghan didn't even raise his head, he just stared at the wine glass in front of him intently, as if he could see something interesting from it.

Hong Yuan also shook her head and said, "Don't look at me, this matter has nothing to do with me. You know me well, I never do business that loses money."

Yuan Mu nodded with a smile, and said, "Hey, come on, I put my hot face on your cold ass. It was originally such a fun thing, and I kindly invited you to participate, since you don't appreciate it, then forget it."

While talking, he gave Yang Yang a hand, and said with a sinister smile: "They don't play, and there is me, brother, don't worry, when the time comes, I will try my best to keep you safe."

Yang Yang struggled to break free from his arm, sat down beside him, and said with a cold snort: "If you can save me once then, I'm not doing your work in vain today."

Yuan Mu patted his chest with a "dong dong" sound, and assured him: "Don't worry, this matter is on me."
