Chapter 6

But because Shen Lang's mouth was tied with a strip of cloth, he couldn't make any sound. He could only whimper. The other party couldn't hear what he was shouting and didn't care at all.

Thus, Shen Lang stared fixedly at the leader of the group.

The man was in his thirties, with two scars on his face. His face was cold, his eyes cruel, and he wore a soft armor.

Shen Lang had an impression of this cruel man because he had seen him several times.

This person's name was Tian Heng. He was a famous leader of the underworld within a hundred miles. He had hundreds of outlaws under his command. He ran gambling stalls, brothels, and broker houses. He was cruel and ruthless, and no one knew how many people he had killed.

He also had another official identity, the leader of the militia in Xuanwu City.

Those people pushed Shen Lang into the pit and began to bury him.

Ordinary people would have already cried and peed their pants, but Shen Lang was still very quiet. At first, he stared at Tian Heng's face, then he stared at Tian Heng's body from head to toe. His gaze was very strange.

He used an X-ray to look at it, and this kind of gaze made people shudder.

Tian Heng finally couldn't hold back his curiosity and raised his hand. Immediately, his four men stopped shoveling the soil.

Tian Heng came in front of Shen Lang, tore off the strip of cloth in his mouth, and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Shen Lang said, "There is a needle in your body. If you don't take it out, your life will be in danger."

He didn't lie. There was indeed a needle in Tian Heng's body, a very thin silver needle, which was in his lungs at this time. If it weren't for his X-ray vision, he wouldn't have seen it at all.

After hearing Shen Lang's words, Tian Heng couldn't help but be shocked.

Shen Lang continued, "That needle is in the main vein of your lungs and will flow with your blood. If you don't take it out, once it enters your brain, you will die."

Tian Heng was even more shocked and couldn't believe it. "How do you know?"

This was a secret that even Tian Heng's wife didn't know. It was really strange that this stupid pretty boy in front of him knew.

This was too uncanny!

Shen Lang said, "I can take it out for you."

Tian Heng looked at Shen Lang for a long time and said, "Everyone says you're a fool, but you don't look like one."

Shen Lang said, "This needle must be taken out, otherwise you will definitely die. Only I can help you take it out."

"But the condition is that I spare your life, right?" Tian Heng said, "Don't you want to know who ordered me to kill you?"

Shen Lang shook his head. "I don't need to ask to know who it is."

Tian Heng narrowed his eyes and said, "You're definitely not stupid!"

Then, he shook his head and said, "But I'm very sorry, I can't promise you."

Shen Lang's eyes narrowed. He had thought that this deal was very safe. Even if someone paid Tian Heng to kill him, how could money be more important than his life? If Shen Lang could save Tian Heng's life, he had no reason not to agree. He had no reason not to release Shen Lang.

In this case, there was only one reason.

Tian Heng couldn't take out the silver needle in his body because the person who planted the silver needle in his body was someone he couldn't resist.

There was a story behind this.

But this was troublesome. The other party couldn't take out the needle. Shen Lang's amazing medical skills couldn't be used, so this deal couldn't be made.

Tian Heng said, "Your brother owes us a sum of money."

Brother owes money?!

"Three months ago, your father was injured. In order to save him, your brother borrowed 10 gold coins from my shop to see a doctor. Now, with the interest, it's already 100 gold coins."

This was much more ruthless than a loan shark. In just three months, the interest and interest added up to 10 times.

But Shen Lang didn't care about the interest, but his father's injury!

Three months ago, which was when he married into the Xu family. His father went to the Xu family to make trouble, wanting to bring Shen Lang home. In the end, he was driven out by the servants of the Xu family. He must have been seriously injured. At that time, Shen Lang was a stupid fool. Of course, he didn't know about this.

It turned out that Shen Lang was really hopeless. He fell in love with a woman like Xu Qianqian, and he didn't even care about his parents. Such a stupid waste didn't deserve his parents' love.

"Because your family can't pay the money, so I buried you alive. It has nothing to do with others. Do you understand?" Tian Heng said, "Of course, to make it look real, we will demolish your house, and kill your brother and your parents."

Shen Lang understood what Tian Heng was trying to say. Someone had already paid Tian Heng to do these things, but they needed to find a legitimate reason to do so. Hence, the excuse of exterminating Tian Heng's entire family was a good one.

"You and I have no grudge, and you're not as stupid as the rumors say." Tian Heng said, "But I still have to kill you. I'm sorry."

Then, he stood up and said, "Give him a quick death. Kill him first and then bury him."

"Yes." A samurai stepped forward, pulled out a knife, and slashed at Shen Lang's neck. He was about to end his life.

"Wait!" Shen Lang shouted, "How much did someone pay you to kill me? I'll give you ten times, I'll give you one thousand gold coins. "

As soon as he said this, the samurai's knife was three inches above Shen Lang's neck.

Tian Heng couldn't help but be surprised. This Shen Lang wasn't stupid, he was extremely smart. From the simple conversation just now, he actually heard that the price was one hundred gold coins.

"I'm very tempted." Tian Heng said, "Really, very tempted. But … your family is so poor that you can't even feed yourself. Your father is still lying in bed, and your brother's legs were broken. You can't even take out one gold coin, let alone one thousand gold coins. "

All of this was caused by the former Shen Lang. Because of his stupidity and the viciousness of the Xu family, his father and brother were seriously injured and even in danger.

In this world, how much was one thousand gold coins equivalent to?

An ordinary family couldn't even save two gold coins in a year of hard work. Using the crudest calculation method, one thousand gold coins was equivalent to about five million yuan on modern Earth.

"This is a huge sum of money, you can't take it out." Tian Heng continued.

Shen Lang said, "But you can take a gamble. If you succeed, you can make a huge sum of money. Even if the gamble fails, you will only delay killing me for a few days. It won't delay you from getting the one hundred gold coins from the Xu family. "

Tian Heng was slightly hesitant. Shen Lang wanted to take out a thousand gold coins within ten days. This seemed to be completely impossible. But just now, the other party was able to see that there was a silver needle in his body, and it was in his lungs. This was a bit amazing.

Shen Lang said, "Ten days, one thousand gold coins."

Tian Heng stared at Shen Lang's handsome face and hesitated for a while. Finally, he said, "Three days, I can only give you three days!"

Shen Lang understood. Tian Heng and the other party also agreed on three days. Within three days, if he killed Shen Lang, he would get one hundred gold coins.

"Okay, it's a deal." Shen Lang said.

Tian Heng said, "Dig him out."

The four warriors dug Shen Lang out of the pit, but these people didn't have pen and paper on them.

Shen Lang directly tore a piece of white silk underwear, bit his finger, and wrote an IOU with blood. He owed Tian Heng one thousand gold coins, and then signed his name.

As he wrote, he cursed in his heart. What kind of bullshit cheat is this? It's not as useful as money. In the end, it's still gold coins that save my life.

Tian Heng took the IOU written in blood and looked at Shen Lang for a while.

This is the legendary Shen Lang with low intelligence? This is too ridiculous.

"Hand over one thousand gold coins within three days, or else I will kill your whole family." Tian Heng said, "Thirteen, Fourteen, the two of you escort Shen Lang home. Stay with him for these three days."

"Yes!" the two warriors said.

Then, Tian Heng left with the other three warriors.

"Shen Lang, remember, within three days, hand over one thousand gold coins, or else I will kill your whole family."

His figure was already out of sight, but his cold voice still drilled into Shen Lang's ears with the wind.

"No problem." Shen Lang's brain worked quickly.

Soon, he thought of a way. Not only could he earn a lot of money, but he could also protect his family. Most importantly, he could take revenge on the Xu family!

Three birds with one stone!
