But Scott Shen couldn't yell because of the cloth strips tied around his mouth, only whining. The other party couldn't hear what he was shouting at all, and didn't care at all.

So, Scott Shen stared straight at the leader man.

The man was about thirty or so years old, with two scars on his face, a cold face, cruel eyes, and soft armor on his body.

Scott Shen has an impression of this cruel man, because he has seen it several times.

His name is Hale Tian, he is a well-known underworld boss within a hundred miles, he has hundreds of desperadoes under his command, he runs gambling stalls, prostitutes, dental shops, he is vicious, he has killed many people.

He also has another official identity, the leader of the People's Army in Xuanwu City .

Those people pushed Scott Shen into the pit and began to bury the soil.

Ordinary people have been crying and howling for a long time, pooping and urinating, but Scott Shen is still very quiet, staring at Hale Tian's face at first, and then staring at his whole body up and down, his eyes look very strange.

He used X-ray perspective to see, and this kind of gaze made people shudder.

Hale Tian finally couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart and raised his hand. Suddenly, his four men stopped shoveling.

Hale Tian came in front of Scott Shen, tore off the cloth strip 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 Hale Tian body, a very, very thin silver needle, which was in the lung at this time. If it weren't for the X-ray vision function of his eyes, he wouldn't be able to see it at all.

After hearing Scott Shen's words, Hale Tian couldn't help being shocked.

Scott Shen continued, "The needle is in the main vein of your lung at this moment, and it will flow with the blood. If you don't take it out, once it enters your brain, you will die."

Hale Tian was even more startled, and dared not say, "How do you know?"

This is a secret, even Hale Tian's wife doesn't know it, it's so strange that this stupid little boy in front of him knows it.

This is so evil!

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

Hale Tian looked at Scott Shen for a long time, and said, "Everyone says you are a fool, it's not like that."

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

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

Scott Shen shook his head and said, "I don't need to ask to know who it is."

Hale Tian narrowed his eyes and said, "You are definitely not stupid!"

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

Scott Shen eyes shrank, he thought this deal was very safe, even if someone paid Hale Tian to kill him, money is not important. Scott Shen can save Hale Tian's life, he has no reason not to agree, no reason not to let Scott Shen go.

In this way, there is only one reason.

Hale Tian couldn't take out the silver needle in his body, because he couldn't resist the person who planted the silver needle in his body.

There is a story here.

But this is troublesome, the other party can't take out the needle, Scott Shen's awesome medical skills are useless, and the deal can't be done.

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 ten Gold Coins from my shop to ask the doctor to treat him. Now the interest rate is one hundred Gold Coins."

This is much more ruthless than usury, and the principal and interest have increased tenfold in just three months.

But what Scott Shen cared about was not the interest, but his father's injury!

Three months ago, that is when he entered Xu Family. Father once went to Xu Family to make trouble and wanted to bring Scott Shen home. In the end, he was kicked out by the servants of the Xu Family family, who must have been severely injured. Scott Shen was a stupid idiot at that time, so of course he didn't know about it.

It turned out that Scott Shen really couldn't ask for medicine. He fell in love with a woman like Celestine Xu, and even ignored his parents. Such a stupid waste is not worthy of being so pampered by his parents.

"Because your family can't repay the money, I buried you alive. It has nothing to do with others, understand?" Tian Heng said, "Of course, for the sake of authenticity, we will demolish your house and take your brother and your parents together." and dealt with it.”

Scott Shen understood this sentence, someone had already offered Hale Tian a sum of money to do these things, but he had to find a legitimate reason, so it was a good excuse to owe money to collect debts and destroy the whole family.

"You and I have no grievances, and you are not as stupid as in the legend." Tian Heng said, "But I still want to kill, I'm sorry."

Then, he got up and said, "Give him a good time, kill him first and then bury him."

"Yes." A Soldier stepped forward, drew out his knife and cut it at Scott Shen neck, threatening to kill him.

"Slow down!"Scott Shen said loudly, "How much is someone paying you to kill me? I'll give you ten times that, and I'll give you a thousand Gold Coins."

As soon as these words came out, the Soldier's sword was placed three inches above Scott Shen's neck.

Hale Tian couldn't help being startled, this Scott Shen is not stupid, he is simply extremely smart. From the simple conversation just now, he actually heard that the price given to him was one hundred Gold Coins.

"I'm very moved." Tian Heng said, "Really, very moved. But... your family is so poor that you can't get rid of it. Your father is still lying on the bed, and your brother's legs were broken again. You don't even have a Gold Coins." I can’t take it out, let alone a thousand Gold Coins.”

All of this was the sin of the former Scott Shen, because of his stupidity and the viciousness of the Xu Family, both his father and younger brother were seriously injured, even their lives were in danger.

In this world, how much is a thousand Gold Coins worth?

An ordinary family can't save two Gold Coins after working hard for a year. Using the roughest calculation method, one thousand Gold Coins is equivalent to about five million RMB in modern Earth.

"This is a huge sum of money, you can't afford it."Hale Tian continued.

Shen Lang said, "But you can take a gamble. If you win the bet, you can make a huge sum of money. Even if the bet fails, you are just postponing killing me for a few days. The one hundred Gold Coins from the Xu Family ."

Hale Tian hesitated a little, Scott Shen wanted to take out a thousand Gold Coins within ten days, which seemed 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 the lungs, which was a bit miraculous.

Shen Lang said, "Ten days, a thousand Gold Coins."

Hale Tian stared at Scott Shen handsome face, hesitated for a while, and finally said, "Three days, I can only give you three days!"

Scott Shen understood, Hale Tian and the other party had also agreed on three days, within three days he could get one hundred Gold Coins if he killed Scott Shen .

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

Tian Heng said, "Dig him out."

The four Soldier dug Scott Shen out of the pit, but these people didn't have any paper or pen on them.

Scott Shen directly tore off a piece of the white Journal of Silk underwear, bit his own finger, wrote an IOU with blood, owed Tian Heng a thousand Gold Coins coins, and signed his name.

While writing, I complained in my heart, what kind of bullshit gold fingers, there is no money to use at all, and Gold Coins are used to save lives in the end.

Hale Tian took the blood book IOU and looked at Scott Shen for a while.

Is this the legendary mentally retarded Scott Shen? It's just ridiculous.

"Hand over one thousand Gold Coins within three days, or kill your whole family." Tian Heng said, "On the thirteenth and fourteenth, you two will escort Elder Shen home, and you will live with him for these three days."

"Yes!" said the two samurai.

Then, Hale Tian left directly with the other three Soldier.

"Scott Shen, remember, within three days, one thousand Gold Coins, otherwise your whole family will be killed."

His figure was no longer visible, but the cold voice still penetrated into Scott Shen's ears with the wind.

"No problem."Scott Shen's mind turned rapidly.

Soon he came up with a way, not only could he earn a lot of money, but he could also protect his family, and the most important thing was to take revenge on the Xu Family!

Kill three birds with one stone!
