The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 217 Leopard Descending the Mountain
Leading the group was a crew-cut man with sharp eyes, a burly figure, and muscles like bronze, full of explosive power.
When the fat stall owner saw the crew-cut man, he rushed over, hugged the man's leg, and wailed, "Brother Bao, you have to stand up for me! Look at what this kid did to me, he knocked out several of my teeth!"
Brother Bao glanced at Chen Xiao and asked coldly, "Fatty, tell me, what's going on here?"
The fat man quickly said, "Brother Bao, you don't know, this brat snatched my Tang Bohu seal and wouldn't give it back, and he even beat me. The main thing is, I mentioned your name, and he beat me even harder. This isn't just hitting me, it's clearly slapping you in the face!"
"Wait, you said the Tang Bohu seal is in that kid's hands?"
Brother Bao suddenly raised his hand, interrupting the fat stall owner.
The fat stall owner quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, yes, Brother Bao, the seal is in that brat's hands!"
Upon hearing this, Brother Bao kicked out, sending the fat stall owner flying several meters.
"You bastard, I've already heard that the seal was clearly bought by this gentleman. Why are you still saying it's yours?"
The fat stall owner was stunned by the kick and quickly explained, "Brother Bao, no, let me explain..."
Brother Bao looked at him coldly, "Fatty, don't think I don't know what you're up to in the ghost market. I've heard people say you bully the market and force sales, I just didn't expect it to be true!"
"You have the gall to do this kind of thing in my, Xia Shan Bao's, territory. Someone, cripple him and throw him out. He's never allowed to set foot in the ghost market again!"
The subordinates next to him immediately went over and grabbed the fat stall owner.
The fat stall owner was dumbfounded and begged bitterly, "Brother Bao, spare me! I'll never dare to do it again, please give me another chance!"
However, Xia Shan Bao ignored him, and several subordinates dragged the fat stall owner to a deserted corner.
Soon, heart-wrenching screams came over, and no one knew what they had done to the fat stall owner to make him scream like that.
Soon, the screams stopped again.
Not long after, the subordinate returned and said softly, "Brother Bao, the brothers didn't hold back, the fatty is dead..."
Xia Shan Bao didn't take it seriously when he heard this and waved his hand, "Find a place to bury him."
Seeing this scene, Chen Xiao felt very strange and inexplicable.
Because he and this Xia Shan Bao were strangers, he didn't know why the other party was helping him.
However, Chen Xiao was too lazy to ask, and after watching the excitement, he wanted to leave.
However, at this moment, Xia Shan Bao suddenly walked over, "This little brother, please wait a moment."
Chen Xiao stopped and looked at Xia Shan Bao, "Do you have something to do with me? We don't seem to know each other."
Xia Shan Bao quickly said, "Yes, yes, yes, we don't know each other. I am Xia Shan Bao, Dong Biao. May I ask your name, brother?"
"I'm Chen Xiao."
Chen Xiao said lightly.
"Chen Xiao?"
Xia Shan Bao repeated the name, as if he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a moment, and he had important things to do, so he didn't think about it anymore.
"Little brother Chen, I heard that you just got a treasure, a spiritual artifact?"
Hearing Xia Shan Bao's question, Chen Xiao's eyes suddenly narrowed.
So, he was also here for the seal.
"Yes, so what?"
Chen Xiao generously admitted.
Then Xia Shan Bao asked, "Little brother Chen, I wonder if you can part with it and give me the spiritual artifact? How much money do you want? Just name your price."
"Not selling!"
Chen Xiao refused outright, then said to Gu Zhendong, "Uncle Gu, let's go!"
Seeing that Chen Xiao was about to leave, Xia Shan Bao immediately became anxious, "Wait!"
Chen Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at Xia Shan Bao, "What else do you want?"
Xia Shan Bao's tone gradually cooled down, and his address to Chen Xiao was no longer as enthusiastic as before.
"Mr. Chen, I want to buy this spiritual artifact to save someone. Please Mr. Chen, think about it again!"
Chen Xiao shook his head, "I said, I'm not selling!"
Chen Xiao's tone also became impatient.
Seeing this scene, everyone said that Chen Xiao didn't know what was good for him.
Brother Bao was already so polite to him, but this kid didn't appreciate it at all.
And this time, Xia Shan Bao finally stopped pretending to be polite.
He said coldly, "Boy, whether you sell it or not today, you have to leave the thing behind for me. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving here, this is my, Xia Shan Bao's, word!"
"Great, another one trying to rob me!"
Chen Xiao sighed helplessly, then asked loudly,
"Relying on your own abilities to force sales? What's the difference between what you're doing and the fat stall owner you just killed?"
Xia Shan Bao was slightly stunned, "How can you compare me to him? Besides, I'm doing this to save someone, he's doing it for money!"
"In my opinion, they're all the same!"
Chen Xiao said lightly, "If you want to fight, then hurry up and come. After I'm done with you, I still have to go home and sleep!"
Xia Shan Bao was suddenly stunned, this kid really didn't take him seriously!
The brothers rushed forward, ready to chop Chen Xiao into mincemeat as soon as Brother Bao gave the order.
"Wait!"
Xia Shan Bao waved his hand, stopping the brothers.
He said to Chen Xiao, "Boy, dare to have a match with me? If you lose, then give me the spiritual artifact!"
He could tell that Chen Xiao was very arrogant, so he provoked him.
Chen Xiao sneered, "What if you lose?"
"Me, lose?"
Xia Shan Bao was slightly stunned, "Based on you? Heh, if I lose, I'll let you do whatever you want!"
Chen Xiao nodded, "Okay, if you lose, I will chop off your legs, and you don't have to call yourself Xia Shan Bao anymore, just call yourself Crippled Bao!"
"You!"
Xia Shan Bao frowned, "Okay, it's a deal, come on!"
The crowd cleared a space in the shed, leaving it for Chen Xiao and Xia Shan Bao to duel.
Everyone cheered for Xia Shan Bao, after all, this was his home field.
"Brother Bao, go, kill this brat! Let this brat who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth learn a lesson!"
"Brother Bao is mighty, kill him!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
...
"Let's do it!"
Xia Shan Bao hooked his finger at Chen Xiao, "Let me see your skills, are they worthy of your arrogant personality!"
Chen Xiao shrugged and spread his hands, "I think, you should make the first move!"
"Why?" Xia Shan Bao was puzzled.
Chen Xiao said lightly, "Because if I make the first move, then you won't even have a chance to make a move!"
