Chapter 1148 What Now?
"Thirty gold coins?" Li Si stared at the little girl in front of him with wide eyes, and said helplessly: "We have taken these two fleets, and all the people added together don't have enough money to earn thirty gold coins!"
"No money? Then stay and be my follower. I'll let you go back when I collect enough money." The girl, who looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, said arrogantly.
Lu Yun walked forward, looked at Li Si who looked helpless, and asked, "Brother Li, what happened?"
Seeing Lu Yun coming, Li Si immediately said nervously: "Brother Xu, this matter has nothing to do with you. Just now, a few of us brothers planned to eat something here, but we didn't expect that a meal would cost thirty gold coins! We have always eaten in this restaurant before, and basically it only cost one gold coin."
"I didn't eat as much this time as last time, but for some reason, when I settled the bill, it became thirty gold coins." Li Si said in panic.
"A few of us pooled together a few gold coins, and the girl paid for us. But we didn't expect that she asked us for more as soon as we went out. You know, those of us who work on the shipping team don't have that much money." Li Si said.
Thirty gold coins?
Isn't that extortion?
Thirty gold coins are enough to cover an average family's expenses for several years.
A meal costs thirty gold coins, and it’s in this remote place.
How can it be?
It is obvious that Li Si and others were taken advantage of.
"It's only natural to pay for meals! I paid for you, but I didn't say I don't want it! If you can't afford it, you can be my follower!" The little girl said with dissatisfaction: "Who are you? Are you going to help them?"
Lu Yun frowned and said, "Thirty gold coins, right? Here you go."
As he spoke, Lu Yun took out a bag of gold coins from his arms and threw it to the little girl.
"Brother Xu, this..."
Lu Yun waved his hand: "It's okay, Brother Li, my wife and I have saved a lot over the years. This is someone else's territory, there is nothing we can do."
Li Si and others looked at Lu Yun gratefully: "Brother Xu, don't worry, we will definitely raise the money and return it to you."
The little girl weighed the bag in her hand, her eyes rolled, and she said sternly, "This amount of gold coins? It's not enough. I'm in a bad mood now, so I'm raising the price. Three hundred gold coins, not a cent less!"
"You are taking advantage of your power to bully others!" Li Si said angrily.
But looking at the four masters behind the little girl, Li Si did not dare to attack.
It is someone else's territory, and the strength of those four masters is much stronger than that of himself and others.
If it really causes conflict between people in the East and the West, it will be a serious matter.
"What do you mean by bullying? I told you, it's only natural to pay back debts. Do you have any money left? If not, follow me!" the little girl said angrily.
Lu Yun understood now.
This little girl is not asking for a high price at all.
Judging from the way this little girl is dressed, she doesn't look like someone who is short of money.
From what she read, it seems that this little girl just wants to find a few followers.
Lu Yun said seriously, "My name is Xu Que. Miss, you can see that we don't have that much money. If you need an entourage, how about I go with you and let my brothers go?"
"You?" The little girl looked Lu Yun up and down, then glanced at Li Si and the others, and asked disdainfully: "What is your strength? Are you as good as them?"
Li Si immediately gritted his teeth and said, "Miss, please don't embarrass my brother Xu. At most, we brothers will go with you."
"But we still have to go back to the Eastern Spirit Realm. Once we have handed over the goods, we will come back to serve as your followers!"
The little girl rolled her eyes at Li Si and said, "Do you really think I'm stupid? If you go, how can you come back? Besides, my time is very precious. I don't have time to wait for you."
"We Orientals always keep our word! If we never come back, you can do whatever you want to us!" Li Si said seriously.
"Tsk, I don't believe it. Even though you are in large numbers, don't have any bad intentions. Otherwise, the magicians behind me are not vegetarians." The little girl said confidently.
Li Si walked to Lu Yun's side and whispered, "Brother Xu, this little girl is a bit troublesome. You and your sister-in-law should go first, and the rest of us can stay."
Lu Yun shook his head and said, "Brother Li, you guys stay here. It will be hard to explain when you go back. Don't worry, leave everything to me."
This was exactly what Lu Yun wanted.
Lu Yun said to the little girl seriously: "Miss, my strength is not that great in our Eastern region, but it is more than enough to deal with you four magicians. Since you need an entourage, how about I accompany you?"
"Do you Orientals like to brag so much?" The little girl said disdainfully, "The four behind me are high-level magicians!"
Lu Yun said calmly: "I don't know what a high-level magician is, but I know that the four guys behind you are just like ants in our East."
"Little brother, watch your tone." One of the magicians stood up, looked at Lu Yun, then looked at Li Si and the others: "Since you are young, we will forgive you. As for the rest of you, you should just serve as the young lady's followers."
"Accompanying the young lady for a trip is worth three hundred gold coins. You won't suffer any loss."
Li Si was shocked. He thought that although Lu Yun looked young, he could also distinguish the importance of things.
But Lu Yun's provocative words made several people feel cold in their hearts.
You know, the realm of a high-level magician is also that of a Saint-level master. If I were to face four high-level magicians on my own, I would have no chance of winning at all!
"Brother Xu!" Li Si shouted.
Lu Yun stopped in front of Li Si and said with a smile: "Brother Li, it's okay, leave it to me. I know the consequences if you don't return on time. I have nothing to worry about. You have just lived a stable life, and it can't be destroyed by this unreasonable girl."
"Who are you calling unreasonable?" the little girl said angrily, "It is your honor to have you Orientals serve as my followers!"
"You guys, teach these ignorant Orientals a lesson!" the little girl commanded the four magicians behind her.
The four magicians stepped forward at the same time, standing in front of the little girl, and said to everyone: "Friends from the East, we also do things for money. Don't worry, we will pray for you to go to heaven when the time comes!"
Feeling the powerful aura of the four magicians, Li Si directly blocked in front of everyone and reminded them: "Stand back!"
"Humph!"
The next second Lu Yun turned into a residual shadow. In an instant, blood gushed out of the four magicians and four heads exploded at the same time.
His cold eyes fell on the little girl: "Now, what?"
