The Anarchic Consort

Chapter 1096: His Highness in Military Uniform

In reality, the courtyard they were in wasn’t big, because it was a house with a house. They could only go inside after they got through this one.

Right in front of them was a room with the word ‘pawnshop’ written on it.

There wasn’t a single person in the room. But once they walked into the next room, a voice started speaking again.

“I know what everyone wants to pawn. Everyone’s contracts have already been prepared and placed on the table. Please sign the contract and come to the counter to exchange it. You will know everything you want to know.”

Helian Weiwei looked at the copper coins scattered on the wooden table. There was indeed a contract on the table. The item they were supposed to pawn as per the contract were their very lives!

Helian Weiwei, Jing Zifeng, Wu Fan, Li Ya, Zhang Qichao.

Except for a certain highness, everyone’s name was written on the contract without any mistake.

It made it seem like they were all going to die here.

Master Zhang’s face was livid. “Who is playing this stupid prank on us?!”

“When I received this registered letter, I felt that something was wrong.” The monk looked around. “The yin energy in this room is too strong. It’s not good for anyone to stay here any longer. Why don’t we think of a way to get out as soon as possible? Things won’t be so simple when the sky turns dark.”

Master Zhang immediately agreed. “Master Wu Fan is right. There’s something strange in this room. I can’t sense any resentment, but it’s very gloomy. It’s better to leave as soon as possible.”

“Did you forget that the door to enter is blocked?” Jing Zifeng’s tone didn’t match his age at all and it was awfully cold.

Master Zhang didn’t dare to provoke this youth. After all, he was the only one who watched him get out of a military vehicle.

However, it was very strange. They had all come here by themselves. Why was this youth sent here by a military vehicle?

Master Zhang was full of questions, but he didn’t say anything.

Li Ya, who was holding the crystal ball, closed her eyes. Her beautiful eyebrows seemed to be in pain for a moment. Then, she opened her eyes and said weakly, “My sixth sense tells me that we must sign this contract in order to have a chance.”

“Miss Li Ya, you are really too amazing! ” Master Zhang looked at her with eyes that seemed to be full of admiration.

Helian Weiwei gave a low laugh and didn’t say anything.

Sixth sense?

The recording had already clearly told them that they had to sign the contract to know everything they wanted to know.

Was there still a need to use sixth sense?

However, as long as it didn’t affect her, Helian Weiwei wouldn’t do anything that would ruin her reputation.

Besides, the person who sent the registered letter had already aroused her curiosity to a large extent.

She really wanted to know what exactly had happened to make the person who sent the letter test them like this.

“But how do we sign the contract?” Master Zhang seemed to believe in the words of the witch, Li Ya, and that belief in her seemed mixed with some liking towards this woman.

After all, Li Ya’s appearance was what most otaku men in their thirties liked. The most important thing was that she was very weak, and made others want to protect her when they saw her.

Li Ya shook her head. “I just used up a little too much spiritual energy. I need to take a good rest and maybe I can find a way.”

There was only one room, and on the other side was a counter.

The small door of the counter could not be pushed open.

Helian Weiwei tried it for a while, then raised her eyes to look at the contract drawn on the wooden table.

If she followed this train of thought, then as long as she found a way to sign the contract, this wooden door would open automatically.

Helian Weiwei walked to the wooden table again. Her eyes swept past the red mud at the side. She pressed her thumb on the mud to get a reddish stain on it and pressed it towards the place where the contract was to be signed.

Bang.

The small door of the counter opened.

Someone walked out from inside. He was wearing a military uniform with one bar and two stars. His military rank was not low. Behind him were two soldiers.

“Masters, what happened just now was just a small game. Please don’t be angry.” That person opened his mouth and said, “The letter was sent by Old Master Song to everyone. Miss Li Ya, Master Zhang and Master Wu Fan have all met Old Master once. Old Master is highly respected and is also very old, so it’s really not convenient for him to come here. I will be in charge of showing everyone around today.”

Everyone seemed to be listening to what this person was saying.

Only a certain highness really couldn’t bear to see how his pet was even the slightest bit dirty. He was currently holding a white handkerchief, and kept his eyes lowered as he wiped the red mark off Helian Weiwei’s hand.

When that person saw this scene, he seemed to be stunned for a moment, but in the next second, he returned to his normal state. “The cars outside have already been prepared. There will be special people guarding your vehicles. The old man wants to meet everyone.”

In other words, the meeting place was not here.

Just as Helian Weiwei thought, someone was testing them.

However, it was understandable.

After all, it was the military.

The military had always done things like this and always made sure they left no loopholes or traces. It was hard to tell what was real and what wasn’t.

Outside the courtyard, there were three military Hummers and they were very tough looking.

The soldiers who were watching the cars walked over and saluted that person. Each of them had neatly ironed military uniforms on hand, and there were both men and women’s sizes.

These weren’t the standard camouflage uniforms that most people saw on TV, but the uniforms worn by the soldiers that marched the square at military parades.

“We’ll need everyone to change into these uniforms,” said that man politely. “Thank you.”

Anyone who dabbled in fengshui and the like knew that in this world, the ones who burnt the most incense and prayed hardest to Buddha were the government officials, followed by the merchants.

In today’s society, it was no longer allowed for the people to believe in these gods and Buddhas. Therefore, no official was willing to let others know that he believed in these things.

Not to mention an important general like Old Master Song.

However, Master Zhang and the others could not understand. In the past, when Old Master Song saw them, they could tell that he did not believe in them, and certainly didn’t believe that there were ghosts in the world.

Why was it different this time?

He even made them wear military uniforms before they met. It seemed like something really happened and he didn’t want anyone to know.

Within a few minutes.

Everyone had changed their clothes.

As soon as Helian Weiwei came out, she saw a certain highness standing not too far away. He was dressed in a military uniform, and looked handsome and dazzling. The sunlight shone on the military badge on his shoulder, emitting a faint glow.

Those black gloves were still wrapped around his slender fingers, and the double-breasted jacket was luxurious and perfect.

He was looking straight at her and his direct gaze made her think of those major generals from the red army.

He was really handsome!

Helian Weiwei’s eyes were shining. This kind of man was hers, so she was definitely the one who profited from this relationship.

She definitely did!

Baili Jiajue did not not understand what she was so proud of. He stretched out his hand in amusement and pulled her over. His fingertips lovingly brushed across her face as he raised his thick eyebrows and his entire body exuded a sense of abstinence. “What is it?”
