Chapter 85 The Debt Collector Goes to Hunter Zhang Sheng's House
Chapter 85 The Debt Collector Goes to Hunter Zhang Sheng's House
After waiting for a while, the distance from the village head to Zhao Yun's house was only a short distance. If someone was coming, he should have come a long time ago.
But after waiting for a long time, no one came.
Zhao Yun thought that they were not coming to his house.
However, the guards from Village Chief Zhao's family came over out of breath and told them what they had just seen:
"Master, Su Hu made a big detour from the east end of the village and went to the north of the village, near the burnt-down home of hunter Zhang Sheng near Niujiao Mountain, and wandered around for a while.
Now he is coming this way."
Zhao Yun and Village Chief Zhao looked at each other, both of them were confused.
What the hell is Su Hu doing running to Zhang Sheng's house which has already been burned down?
It's impossible that Su Hu is a relative of Zhang Sheng?
So you're here to investigate, to seek revenge?
But after thinking about it, Village Chief Zhao felt that the two could not be relatives.
And Zhao Yun also felt it was impossible.
Zhang Sheng's original family was not considered a wealthy family in Niujiao Village.
If there really were high-ranking guards from wealthy families, such relatives would definitely not live in poverty.
In addition, Zhao Yun thought more about the 'Barbarian Ninth Order Ritual Book' obtained by Zhang Sheng and the source of the Warrior Blood Pill.
Could it be that it was given by Su Hu?
Otherwise, how could a person who was neither a relative nor had any connection with him go straight to Zhang Sheng's house?
It is very likely that there has been no contact between the upper and lower lines of the Barbarians for a long time.
I sent Su Hu here specially to check it out.
And according to what Village Chief Zhao just said, Su Hu is a big man with a broad body, fat waist, stout body, beard, and flowing chest hair.
Who knows, maybe he really is a barbarian?
In addition, when Zhao Yun dug out the pottery jar from Zhang Sheng's house, he did not cover it up.
Those scattered yellow earth bricks were covering the gray and black ruins of the house from behind!
Anyone who went to see it could guess that someone had rummaged through the earthen kang.
However, the pottery jar, books, blood pills, envelopes and other items that Zhao Yun found from the kang were all put into the door key.
These little things did not leave any traces behind.
But if Su Hu was a barbarian cultivator, after seeing the situation at Zhang Sheng's home, he might have some ideas...
Thinking of this, Zhao Yun felt that things might really become complicated.
He also started to make preparations and put the three talismans that Master Sun had given him on his sleeves, ready to use at any time.
After waiting for a while, Su Hu, a fat and strong man with a beard, bare chest and big hairy chest, really came towards his house leisurely with a group of three or five people.
Zhao Yun could sense from afar that the leader Su Hu indeed had a special supernatural power similar to magic power or blood.
But that extraordinary power is not magic power, but is somewhat similar to blood.
As for the barbarians, Zhao Yun does not know the specific name of the power they have cultivated.
"Oh, Village Chief Zhao is here, so this must be Zhao Hanxiang's home, right?"
Su Hu asked in a loud voice, the sound vibrating in the air, full of power.
"It is indeed Zhao Hanqiang's home, but I have already repaid the money Zhao Hanxiang owed to the gambling house and redeemed the IOU. What are you doing here?" There was a hint of vigilance in the tone of Village Chief Zhao.
Su Hu pushed open the gate, walked into the yard, and said in a slightly joking tone: "Hey! Village Chief Zhao, please listen carefully:
"The people below forgot to tell you yesterday. What you redeemed was only the principal that Zhao Hanxiang owed to my gambling house. The interest for the past few days has not yet been paid!"
Village chief Zhao got angry when he heard this.
He was the middleman in the negotiations with the gambling house.
And what Su Hu is doing now, isn't this just rubbing his face on the ground?
"I have taken back the IOU, so I won't give you any interest! How dare you take advantage of me?"
When Su Hu heard this, a sly look appeared on his face.
"Master Zhao, I am really just here to beg for food.
In addition, I am curious about how Zhao Hanxiang, an honest peasant, could have persuaded you, a big landlord, to willingly redeem the IOU for him?"
As soon as Su Hu said this, a tense atmosphere instantly filled the air.
"Su Hu, you don't even have an IOU. We absolutely don't acknowledge your behavior.
As for the interest you mentioned, Zhao Hanxiang only lent four taels of silver to your gambling house. The interest compounding period has not yet expired, but I have already helped him pay back ten taels of silver in advance. There is no interest to speak of.
You little Su Hu, if you continue to cause trouble, I will report you to the police and have you arrested." Village Chief Zhao said in a loud and righteous voice.
"Hahaha~"
Su Hu and his younger brothers behind him laughed unscrupulously.
"Village Chief Zhao, I forgot to tell you just now that the IOU that the people below gave you yesterday was written by them at random, so don't take it seriously.
Look, I have black and white words and handprints here! This is also the handprint of Zhao Hanxiang.
So, he still hasn't paid off his debt!
So it is only natural for me to go to someone’s house to collect the debt.”
Su Hu said this while waving the IOU in his hand.
The paper made a rustling sound in the air, as if it was slapping Village Chief Zhao in the face.
Zhao Yun had a good eye. He took a look and found that it was indeed an IOU.
"Zhang Hanxiang, what are you doing hiding in that room? Your creditor is here, why don't you come out and see if this thing is signed by you." Zhao Yun's voice was like a loud bell, shouting at the gambler who was peeking out of the room.
Zhao Hanxiang walked out of the room timidly. When he saw the white paper, his eyes darkened and he lowered his head:
"Well, it was indeed me who put my fingerprints on it. The gambling house gave me two pieces of paper and asked me to put my fingerprints on both. But you know, son, I'm just a farmer. How could I know how to read? I signed when they asked me to..."
Zhao Yun listened to Zhao Hanxiang's stupid words, and suddenly he was filled with anger:
"Why don't you eat shit when I tell you to? You can't even read, you can't even count money, it's weird that you can win the bet...
Besides, when there are bad guys, you are submissive, but when it comes to your family, you strike hard. "
In addition, Zhao Yun was not only completely disappointed with this old gambler, but also angry about the mess that happened in the gambling house.
Then Zhao Yun looked at Su Hu, who had a smiling face.
In Zhao Yun's eyes, Su Hu at this time was like a cunning fox, disgusting.
