Ye Feng was curious at first. Why did the system lead him to this small courtyard?
However, when he activated the scanning system and scanned the courtyard, he was stunned.
“Nine Dragon Cup?”
He was in disbelief at first, but he scanned it a few more times.
In the end, he got a shocking result.
There was actually a Nine Dragon Cup in this courtyard?
He had relied on the Nine Dragon Cup to make a living back then, so he was too familiar with this thing.
However, it was still surprising to find a Nine Dragon Cup in Jiangzuo, which was thousands of miles away.
Besides the Nine Dragon Cup, there were also many precious antiques in the courtyard.
He couldn’t help but be curious about the background of the owner of this courtyard. Why was there so many antiques?
Putting everything else aside, he was definitely going to get his hands on the Nine Dragon Cup.
However, if he were to come knocking on the door so rashly, he was afraid that it would arouse the other party’s suspicion.
Therefore, he had to find a good reason.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a commotion coming from the alley. There should be quite a number of people.
He hurriedly pulled Xu Jingxin and hid behind a car parked beside them.
After a while, they heard footsteps getting closer and closer. At the same time, they heard two people talking.
“This is the courtyard.”
“Are you sure this is the place? I’m warning you, don’t play any tricks on me. Otherwise, I won’t forgive you.”
“I didn’t lie to you. It was really Niu Er who told me.”
When Ye Feng heard their conversation, he was stunned.
These two voices were very familiar. They sounded like Liu Jie and Third Hair.
Xu Jingxin obviously heard it and was also surprised. “Why are they here?”
Ye Feng shook his head and walked out slowly.
At this moment, they saw Liu Jie leading a few people from the Liu family and escorting Third Hair to the front of the small courtyard. They were about to knock on the door.
“Liu Jie, what are you doing here?” he asked in a low voice.
When Liu Jie heard his voice, he was obviously stunned for a moment. When he saw his face clearly under the street lamp, he was surprised. “Mr. Ye? Why are you here?”
“I… Miss Xu and I strolled around, and… I got lost.” Ye Feng found a lame excuse.
Liu Jie looked at the two of them and then at the dark alley. He suddenly understood something. “Oh, so that’s how it is? Haha, indeed, it’s easy to get lost here.”
His acting skills were really not to be complimented, and his wretched expression was revealed without a doubt.
Xu Jingxin was originally magnanimous, but when she saw his smile, she suddenly felt guilty for some reason, and her pretty face blushed.
Fortunately, the light here was a little dim, so no one noticed it.
“I’m asking you a question. What are you doing here?” Ye Feng glanced at Third Hair beside him and continued to ask.
“According to this kid’s account, it was someone called Niu Er who told him that the president of the Three Phoenix Society likes to study martial arts from various sects. He also revealed to him that our Liu family has a fist manual…”
Liu Jie explained the sequence of events.
After Ye Feng heard this, he was stunned. “How did this Niu Er know about this?”
Liu Jie turned around and kicked Third Hair. “He’s asking you, say something.”
Because Third Hair was beaten up by Yu Fengsheng just now, his body was abnormally weak. He was kicked lightly to the ground and only managed to get up with great difficulty.
“Niu Er is from the Three Phoenix Society,” he answered in a trembling voice.
“Then how do you know him?” Ye Feng continued to ask.
“We met two days ago when we were playing cards in the underground casino. I lost a lot of money at that time and owed the casino 10,000 yuan. That’s how we got to know each other…”
“Why did he take the initiative to pay off your debt?”
“He said that we hit it off quite well. Besides, 10,000 yuan isn’t a lot to him…”
Ye Feng listened to Third Hair’s description, his brows furrowed even more.
For some reason, he felt that this matter was too strange.
This Niu Er inexplicably took the initiative to approach Third Hair and provided him with information to steal the Liu family’s fist manual and sell it to the Three Phoenix Society.
Why was this?
“Does this Niu Er like to collect antiques?” He suppressed the doubts in his heart and continued to ask Third Hair.
“How did you know?”
Third Hair was stunned, but Liu Jie kicked him again. “Answer whatever he asks you. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I’ll slap you.”
Third Hair shrunk his neck and hurriedly replied, “That’s right, Niu Er usually likes to sell antiques, he even asked me to introduce buyers to him, saying that he would give me a commission after the deal is done…”
Ye Feng’s eyes immediately turned. He already had a plan in his mind. “Liu Jie, leave this to me. You can bring your people back first.”
“Alright.” Liu Jie didn’t ask why and just nodded.
“You should go back with him first,” Ye Feng then turned around and instructed Xu Jingxin.
“Then… Be careful.” Xu Jingxin was also very understanding. She did not pester him too much and left with the Liu family.
After they left, Ye Feng turned to look at Third Hair. His eyes were filled with evil intentions. It was terrifying, especially in the night.
Third Hair instantly shivered, his voice trembling, “Ye… Mr. Ye, you… What are you doing?”
As he spoke, he looked at the dark alley.
Could this Mr. Ye have some special fetish and want to do something outrageous to him?
Ye Feng grabbed him. “If you don’t want to die, do as I say…”
Then, he whispered a few words into his ear and patted his shoulder. “As long as you do as I say, I’ll let you go after I’m done.”
Third Hair was still on tenterhooks at the start, but after listening to his story, he gradually calmed down.
“Is what you said true? Will you really let me go after you’re done?” He clearly did not believe Ye Feng’s promise.
“Do you have any other choice but to believe me?” Ye Feng did not hide his threat at all.
Third Hair shivered again. He didn’t dare to speak anymore. He hurriedly knocked on the door.
..
Third Hair knocked on the door a few times.
Soon, he heard footsteps coming from inside. At the same time, a hoarse voice sounded. “Who is it? Knocking on the door in the middle of the night? Do you want to die?”
His voice was a little drunk, and his speech was a little clumsy.
“Brother Niu, it’s me, Third Hair,” Third Hair hurriedly replied.
Creak!
The old wooden door was pulled open, a drunk man peeked out half of his body. He first glanced at Third Hair before looking at Ye Feng.
“Third Hair? What are you doing here in the middle of the night? Who is this?”
“Brother Niu, didn’t you say that I should introduce more antique buyers to you when I have time? I just happened to contact one today. He wants to see the goods first.” Third Hair hurriedly repeated what Ye Feng taught him.
