Master Gu looked at the figure walking slowly with trepidation. He could not see his face because he was wearing a dark windbreaker with a hood and a face cloth.
Master Gu felt like crying. Where did he provoke this demon?
The other party had already walked in front of Master Gu and looked down at him. Master Gu’s heart trembled again.
“What exactly do you want to ask?” he asked humbly.
Su Yun looked at Master Gu quietly and nodded in satisfaction.
Xu Jiajia’s kidnapping had indeed touched his reverse scale. His heart was filled with the desire to kill and he was not in the mood to feign civility with others.
“Are you in contact with a group of tomb raiders?” he said indifferently.
“Rumors! Which bastard dares to spread rumors about me!” Master Gu reflexively denied.
“Is that so?” Su Yun’s voice was still calm, but it was filled with coldness.
The ones who kidnapped Xu Jiajia must be that group of tomb raiders. What they wanted must be the Warring States Golden Foil. There was no doubt about it.
It was almost inevitable that Master Gu was related to this group of tomb raiders.
After all, whatever treasure the tomb robbers dug up definitely needed to be appraised and taken action. As the most prestigious person in the antique industry in Burning Light Ancient City, Master Gu had definitely interacted with them.
In addition, during the day, Master Gu was arrogant and despotic to Teacher Yu and the students of Class One. However, when he appeared, he suddenly became extremely reasonable. He did not hesitate to use his dignity to avoid conflict with him.
Previously, Su Yun did not understand. He did not know what he was afraid of, but now he understood. Obviously, Pig Head Rong was in contact with Master Gu, and Master Gu also knew that Pig Head Rong was targeting him.
It was also because of this that Master Gu was afraid of him. It was also because of this that Su Yun deduced that Master Gu and Pig Head Rong’s relationship was not ironclad. There was room for him to operate.
Master Gu trembled when he heard Su Yun’s cold voice.
“I’m not scolding you. There are always rumors in the outside world that I, Old Gu, am colluding with Pig Head Rong and the others. I’m in the antique business, so why would I collude with them? Therefore, I was angry and said something wrong. Don’t take offense.”
Master Gu carefully sized up Su Yun’s eyes and continued, “I just occasionally helped them appraise antiques a few times without knowing their background. However, the guests are complicated. How can I know all of them?”
Pig Head Rong? Su Yun silently remembered this name. He had never interacted with these tomb raiders before and did not know who their leader was. Now, he finally knew the name Pig Head Rong.
Great, this meant that he had a definite goal.
“I want to know where Pig Head Rong is now,” he said calmly.
Master Gu was relieved. So he was here to cause trouble for Pig Head Rong, not him.
Master Gu heaved a sigh of relief. He had to admit that this mysterious demon in front of him had indeed given him a huge psychological pressure. Pig Head Rong was a ferocious and famous person. He did things unscrupulously and had a lawless attitude.
Master Gu’s relationship with him could only be considered ordinary. After all, Pig Head Rong’s main business was tomb raiding and other antique-related matters. As the leader of the antique world in the ancient city, Master Gu had interacted with Pig Head Rong a few times.
However, that was all. The two of them were not very close and were not on the same side at all. After all, Pig Head Rong was a bandit, and Master Gu was just a businessmen.
Of course, those who had the guts to find Pig Head Rong by name were also people at that level. It was probably just the foundation for them to do things unscrupulously. Master Gu did not want to provoke such a person at all.
But immediately, his heart skipped a beat again.
“This… Uh, Young Hero.” He deliberated for a moment and did not know how to address the other party. However, under the dim light of the street lamps and the moon in the sky, the other party’s eyes seemed to be very young, and his voice was clean. He estimated that he was not much older. Therefore, he could not help but use the slightly strange title of Young Hero. “I’m not very familiar with Pig Head Rong, and I don’t know where he is now,” he said carefully.
Master Gu was not a fool. He could not afford to offend this ferocious god who came out of nowhere. However, he could not afford to offend Pig Head Rong either. He did not want to participate in such a matter at all. At this moment, he was really filled with resentment.
He did not dare to betray Pig Head Rong. This was because if Pig Head Rong found out about this, no matter how much reputation he had in the ancient city, he would not be able to stop these desperadoes.
Therefore, this matter was really an undeserved calamity for him.
“Haha.” Su Yun smiled. It was not because of the strange way the other party addressed him, but because of Master Gu’s denial. He knew that what Master Gu said was true. If Pig Head Rong did anything, he would not inform Master Gu, let alone talk about the matter of kidnapping.
But Su Yun believed in one thing. If he needed an answer today, Master Gu would definitely give him an answer.
He had to give himself an answer!
“If,” he squatted down and stared at Master Gu, who was ready to crawl away at any moment, and said calmly, “I need an answer now. I wonder if Master Gu has any way?”
Master Gu’s entire body went numb. Although the other party’s words seemed to have a negotiating meaning and his tone was very calm, Master Gu knew very well that he was not discussing whether he could tell him the answer..
