Chapter 244: Demonic Weapon Evil Shadow Scythe
In the early morning, Su Lingxi was still sound asleep in her dreams.
However, a slight noise from downstairs quietly slipped in through the crack of the door. Su Lingxi frowned and turned over.
But this didn’t bring any relief. The noise downstairs was chaotic and unstable, and there were occasional screams.
Logically speaking, construction hadn’t started at this hour. Why was it so noisy?
She couldn’t stand it anymore.
Su Lingxi got up and couldn’t help but rub her face. She was completely awake now.
The key was that she didn’t know where Yun Qianrou had gone. In the past, the two of them always got up together.
But sometimes, when Su Lingxi slept in, Yun Qianrou would leave first.
Listening to the voice, it seemed to be Su Chen shouting downstairs.
She really didn’t know what he was screaming about in the morning.
Su Lingxi swore that when she went downstairs, she would definitely teach him a lesson and tell him to be quiet in the morning.
After washing up, Su Lingxi followed the sound with an angry face.
As she got closer, the sound got louder, and Su Lingxi got angrier.
But when she arrived at the place, Su Lingxi was dumbfounded.
The morning sun was rising, and she saw Yun Qianrou, Su Chen, Lin Ye, and a person Su Lingxi didn’t know sitting around a table.
On the table were the mahjong tiles Su Lingxi brought back yesterday. Behind these four people, there were at least a dozen passersby watching.
They were so focused that they didn’t even know Su Lingxi had arrived.
Su Lingxi didn’t speak, just waiting to see when these people would notice her.
Lin Ye frowned slightly, his fingertips rubbing the tile he had just drawn, a trace of hesitation flashing in his eyes.
If he played this tile, the effect might not be ideal, but if he kept it in his hand, he didn’t know when he could form a straight.
“What are you thinking about, Boss Lin? Hurry up and play, I’m waiting until the flowers wither!”
Su Chen grinned, and Lin Ye simply stopped hesitating.
He gritted his teeth and played the tile. “Seven Characters!”
As soon as the words fell, Su Chen shouted excitedly, “Hu! All one suit with a kong, Big Three Dragons!”
Saying that, he pushed the tiles down, his face full of pride.
“Pay up, pay up!”
Lin Ye slapped the table helplessly. “Good heavens, you brat, your luck is too good! I lost badly this round.”
Then he impatiently took out a few low-grade spiritual crystals and threw them on the table. Yun Qianrou also blushed and took out the money.
After reshuffling, the passerby behind Lin Ye couldn’t help but say, “Fortune turns, playing cards depends on who laughs last.”
The game continued, and the four were fully focused. For a time, the passersby just watched silently.
There was only the sound of shuffling tiles and the crisp collision sound when playing tiles on the table.
“Ahem!”
Su Lingxi couldn’t help but cough twice.
Only then did Lin Ye, Su Chen, and the others focus their eyes on Su Lingxi. They were stunned for a moment.
Then they stopped their movements.
Su Chen smiled apologetically and said to the people behind him, “You guys play, you guys play, I have something to do.”
Hearing this, the passersby behind him couldn’t wait to get started.
It was the first time they had seen such a novel thing. They knew how to play after watching a few rounds in the morning.
The table was immediately filled.
Su Chen looked at Su Lingxi with a fawning smile. “Hehe, Boss Su, playing this is so cool.”
“I couldn’t help but play a few more rounds.”
“Is this the reason why you were shouting in the morning?”
Su Lingxi rolled her eyes at him speechlessly. “If you want to play in the future, go somewhere else. Find a place with good soundproofing.”
Su Chen agreed repeatedly.
Su Lingxi looked at Yun Qianrou again and pinched her face.
“You, you, how come even you are addicted!”
Yun Qianrou lowered her small head and remained silent.
Although she didn’t seem very involved, she liked playing it quite a bit.
So much so that she sneaked away from Su Lingxi in the morning just to go downstairs and have a look.
As a result, Su Chen and Lin Ye were already sitting there waiting.
The three of them smiled helplessly, and then randomly pulled a relatively idle passerby on the road to start playing.
Su Lingxi led Lin Ye and the others to another table and sat down.
“Let me tell you, this thing is extremely addictive if you play for money. I also took a fancy to this point and took out mahjong as a trump card.”
“But I don’t want you to fall into it too.”
“Remember, we use this thing to make money.”
After Su Lingxi’s warning, the three were silent.
Su Chen thought for a moment and couldn’t help but speak, “It’s okay, Boss Su, it won’t delay the business!”
It would have been fine if Su Chen hadn’t said anything, but as soon as he said it, Su Lingxi wanted to scold him.
“You say it won’t delay the business now. To be honest, I’m most worried about you. Don’t look at your good luck now.”
“When you play big, you’ll lose everything, even your underwear.”
At this point, Su Lingxi rubbed her temples. “This thing is quite fresh for you. Just play it appropriately.”
“The Lantern Festival is approaching. Let’s renovate the restaurant first.”
“But since we’ve talked about this, I’ll also talk about my renovation ideas.”
“I plan to change the second floor into a chess and card room, and then change those extra guest rooms into private rooms.”
“At that time, we will charge according to the area.”
After Su Lingxi briefly explained, Lin Ye and Su Chen suddenly realized.
So that was how the upstairs was to be changed.
After playing mahjong, Lin Ye became more and more confident in Su Lingxi’s idea.
“But with your tossing about in the morning, mahjong can be considered to have been initially promoted.”
Su Lingxi looked at the passersby sitting around with some emotion. She had originally wanted to use the method of pretending to be Gu Zhen Daoist in the Heaven Wind Nation last time to find a few shills to promote it.
Now it seemed unnecessary.
This also proved a truth: good things don’t need promotion.
“Hehe, Boss Su, don’t worry about promotion. Leave it to me. With my glib tongue.”
“Without spending a penny, the whole Tang’an City will know about it.”
Su Chen guaranteed Su Lingxi, and Su Lingxi also agreed, “Okay, leave it to you.”
After getting Su Lingxi’s affirmation, Su Chen got up directly and returned to the mahjong table just now.
“Everyone have fun, and promote it for us. This gameplay is created by our boss!”
“……”
Looking at Su Chen mingling with the passersby, Su Lingxi couldn’t help but shake her head.
“Ding! Mission issued!”
[Retrieve the Heaven-grade Demonic Weapon Evil Shadow Scythe!]
Clue: Absolute Flame Valley
Reward: 10,000 points
Time limit: 30 days
Penalty: Cultivation reduced by one major realm
Xiao Bai, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly issued a super big mission. The reward of 10,000 points was unprecedented.
Su Lingxi had never seen a single mission reach a high price of 10,000 points.
She had obtained 10,000 points before because several small missions were added together to make 10,000 points.
This single mission had 10,000 points.
Presumably, the mission must be extremely difficult.
