Hearing such a straightforward threat, Guo Meiyu and Han Xueyao laughed!
"Retribution? I don't know what kind of retribution you're talking about?"
"Exactly!"
They retorted, looking at the so-called master with interest...
At this moment, they really wanted to know how he would continue this act...
Hearing their calm retort, he frowned, "The retribution I'm talking about is a terrifying kind. You've committed too many sins before, so once retribution really comes, you might pay with your lives."
...
"Sounds really scary!"
"Indeed!"
"Since you're scared now, take me to your rooms!"
By the end of his sentence, a trace of excitement and exhilaration flashed in the so-called master's eyes.
He knew that as long as he got to their rooms, it would be the first step accomplished.
Once the first step was accomplished, the subsequent things would become much simpler.
Simply put, they now belonged to him because he had already dug a pit for them!
"But... we really don't want to die! Master, we really don't want to die!"
"Right, we don't want to die. If you can help us, we're willing to give you ten million!"
Hearing the number they mentioned in panic, he widened his eyes in astonishment, "Ten million? Did you just say ten million?"
Noticing that he seemed slightly dissatisfied, they spoke again, "Is it not enough? If it's not enough, twenty million, or thirty million is fine!"
"Do you really have that much money?"
This so-called master quickly furrowed his brow.
Previously, when scamming in other places, he would usually cheat only a few tens of thousands...
In his view, rural places were generally like that!
So now he really didn't believe they could come up with ten million!
Sensing his astonishment, an older person nearby stepped forward seriously, "Master, we forgot to tell you earlier, our Xiaohe Village is quite wealthy. We can indeed come up with ten million!"
When others heard him speak, they also chimed in, "Exactly! Ten million might be a lot for others, but it's really not much for them!"
Hearing them say this, the so-called master's eyes completely lit up...
"I've hit the jackpot, really hit the jackpot this time!"
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, he pretended to speak calmly, "Money is indeed necessary because back then, your sins were too many! I promise, all thirty million will be used to help you avert disaster."
...
"Thirty million? You're really not afraid of biting off more than you can chew!"
This mockery reached his ears, making him a bit annoyed!
Frowning, he turned around and looked at a young man with a face full of sarcasm, "Who are you? Do you have a say here?"
Hearing him speak so coldly, the people around quickly approached him, "This is Master Xiaobei!"
Hearing this, he squinted his eyes and looked at Hu Xiaobei, speaking coldly, "Oh? So you're Hu Xiaobei! No wonder seeing you makes me sick!"
Hu Xiaobei, hearing this, glanced at him deeply and asked indifferently, "Can someone explain to me what's going on here?"
Hu Xiaobei had hurriedly rushed back earlier and saw so many people here...
Without hesitation, he came over directly...
Because he was in such a hurry, he didn't get a detailed understanding of the previous events, which is why he wanted to know some specifics!
Hearing Hu Xiaobei's serious inquiry, Guo Meiyu and Han Xueyao quickly approached him.
Soon, they recounted what they knew.
It turned out that after the plants withered, many people in the village and nearby started desperately seeking solutions!
The young people were fine, but the older ones thought there might be a terrible disaster, so they began to look for the so-called master.
At this time, the so-called master appeared.
They directly sought him out, and he accepted the commission...
"So it's the master! My apologies!"
After learning the whole story, while scrutinizing him, Hu Xiaobei narrowed his eyes.
Hearing Hu Xiaobei's words, he arrogantly smirked, "Since you know I'm the master, behave yourself!"
"Hehe!"
Hu Xiaobei chuckled mildly...
Hu Xiaobei wanted to directly punch him, but refrained because he knew he was invited by the villagers...
Glancing at Hu Xiaobei, he raised his head, "Now let me ask you, are you Hu Xiaobei?"
"Yes!"
"Previously, it was you who sinned so much that now retribution is striking here."
Hearing him blame him, Hu Xiaobei squinted his eyes, "Then, master, what do you think I should do now?"
"What should you do? First, build a temple in the village, then spend money to install a statue."
"How much money is needed?"
Knowing Hu Xiaobei was wealthy, he became audacious, "Start with a hundred million!"
"Money isn't an issue, but I don't know how to invite them!"
"Useless! Here's what we'll do. You'll transfer the money to my account, and I'll handle the rest."
"That's so considerate of you, master!"
"You're welcome!"
Having agreed, his heart was filled with extreme excitement!
He knew that soon his account would have an extra hundred million. Thinking about this, he was so exhilarated he wanted to shout out loud.
"No, no! I can't show it too obviously now, or I'll be seen through!"
Thinking this, he cleared his throat...
When everyone was looking at him again, he casually said, "You two, now take me to your room so I can expel the negative energy and sins from you."
Hearing this, Hu Xiaobei understood his intention, and as such, a sharp look flashed in his eyes.
Clenching his fist, Hu Xiaobei directly asked, "Master, no need to rush. First, tell us, when will the crops in the field recover?"
"Yes, master!"
"These crops wilting for no reason is really distressing!"
"Exactly!"
Everyone, hearing Hu Xiaobei's words, looked towards the master, hoping for a clear response.
...
"Screw you!"
His eye twitched as he said in a deep voice, "Regarding those crops, there's no rush now. Once I remove all grievances, they will naturally be fine!"
"Really?"
"Of course, would I lie to you all?"
Finished speaking, he turned back to Guo Meiyu and Han Xueyao, just about to speak, when he saw Hu Xiaobei walking towards him coldly.
"You... what do you intend to do?"
Feeling that terrifying aura, his eye twitched hard.
He was actually a bit panicked because he found Hu Xiaobei's aura to be quite terrifying.
Seeing his panicked expression, Hu Xiaobei smiled and said lightly, "Nothing, just want to have a nice chat with you, master. I believe you wouldn't mind!"
While asking this rhetorically, Hu Xiaobei picked up a stone and crushed it to powder...
Seeing that stone crumbling like sand, his entire body started to tremble violently.
Seeing him panic, Hu Xiaobei said calmly, "Master, what's wrong? Are you about to wet your pants? Could it be some health problem?"
