Chapter 59 I'm dumbfounded!

The Buda envoy was secretly delighted, but he carefully concealed his identity for fear of affecting this lucrative deal.

On this bustling street, Xu Luo remembered a funny joke about an oil merchant who promised to deliver oil to people, but ended up only delivering half each time, and was nicknamed "Mr. Half Delivery".

He almost laughed out loud, but then he thought to himself that he couldn't be that kind of "half-gift man".

The Buda envoy smiled and looked expectant. He said, "Sir, don't worry. I will take action in half a month or a month."

"Oh?" Xu Luo pretended to be surprised, "Then I won't be in a hurry."

"Within half a month, ten stones of refined salt will arrive at your palace." The Buda envoy vowed.

Xu Luo looked at him with a sidelong glance, a smile on his face, and asked, "Where are you staying for the time being?"

The Buda envoy frowned slightly when he heard this. He didn't want to reveal his identity so quickly. After all, the deal wasn't finalized yet. He rolled his eyes and answered evasively, "Well, I walk around this street every day."

"Okay then, I'll come here to see you again in half a month." Xu Luo nodded.

"It's settled!" The Buda envoy slapped his thigh in excitement.

However, when he was overjoyed, Xu Luo stretched out his fingers and gently gestured a money-counting motion, with a malicious smile on his face: "Sir, don't forget, business is business, you can't let me work for nothing."

The Buda envoy was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, secretly admiring Xu Luo's shrewdness.

At this moment, the wind blew gently in a corner of the street, and the envoy's cloak was slightly lifted, revealing the delicate skin on his neck, which contrasted with his deep eyes and looked particularly seductive.

"I say, don't wait for me to work hard to get the refined salt, but you just run away. Who can I cry to?" Xu Luo looked serious, as if he was making a big joke.

The Buda envoy was obviously immune to Xu Luo's tricks. He frowned slightly and asked helplessly, "How much deposit do you want, sir?"

"Not much, ten thousand yuan is enough!" Xu Luo answered simply.

"Ten thousand is ten thousand. I'll send someone back to get it right away." Buda nodded, turned around and whispered a few words to the servant behind him, asking him to bring the money that he had prepared in the morning.

The attendant bowed hastily and was about to turn and leave, but was interrupted by a sudden shout.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" a voice rang out from the other end of the street. "The horse is frightened. If you don't want to die, get out of the way!"

The Buda envoy, Xu Luo and the attendants all turned their heads and saw an out-of-control carriage running wildly along Suzaku Street.

"Oh my God!" The Buda envoy's face turned pale instantly, and he stood there in a daze, as if he was frozen in place.

The carriage was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, rushing straight towards this side.

The people on the street were panicked and fled in all directions. The small vendors even abandoned their stalls and jumped far away, fearing that they would be hit by the crazy horse.

For a moment, Zhuque Street was in chaos. Especially the Buda envoy, when he saw that the carriage had no intention of slowing down and was heading straight towards him, his eyes were wide open with fear. The Buda envoy's face was so pale, as pale as a newly painted wall, and he sat there like a sculpture, his soul was probably flying away.

It was a mess all around, and the coachman was yelling like a madman: "Get out of the way, get out of the way! The horses are frightened!" He whipped the horses harder than anyone else, and as a result, the two horses seemed to have taken stimulants and ran like arrows.

At this moment, the Buda envoy felt his eyes blurred, and before he could react, he saw that the two horses seemed to be grabbed by some mysterious force.

With just a loud shout, the two horses suddenly changed direction. The tall horses raised their front hooves. The scene was so spectacular that it felt like watching an equestrian show.

"Get out of the way!" A figure stood out from the chaos and shouted softly. Then he jumped onto the horse's back with nimbleness, and with his legs squeezed together, the horse's back became his stage.

His hands skillfully adjusted the reins, as if he was conducting a grand symphony.

The crowd watching was stunned. This scene was more exciting than a magic trick.

Suddenly, the man on the horse gave another light shout, and the two crazy horses actually calmed down, stamping the ground and purring with satisfaction from their noses.

At this time, someone in the crowd couldn't help but mutter: "Wow, where did this expert come from?"

"Oh my god, did these two horses eat some wild grass? This is outrageous!"

"Wow, my precious stall, how did you become like this!"

"What bad luck I have today! What fell from the sky was not a pie in the sky, but a crazy horse!"

The people and vendors around were all so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths. Some cried and screamed, while others sighed. In full view of the crowd, a young man bravely appeared and subdued the two crazy horses with his agility like a flash of lightning.

While everyone was amazed, they were secretly glad that this sudden disaster had finally come to an end.

The vendors were in tears as they watched their goods being trampled to pieces. In this prosperous city of Chang'an, every penny was hard-earned. Now they watched helplessly as a month's hard work went up in smoke. How could they describe their feelings with just one word, "miserable".

The driver let out a long sigh and wiped the sweat off his forehead, his gratitude overflowing with words: "Oh! Thank you so much for saving my life, thank you so much for saving my life!"

When the dust settled, the driver discovered that the brave young man was actually a young man. He hurriedly got off the car, walked a few steps to Xu Luo, bowed deeply, and thanked him repeatedly.

Xu Luo is a man of elegant demeanor and sharp eyes. In the thrilling scene just now, he stepped forward and, relying on his extraordinary martial arts, managed to tame the crazy horse at the critical moment.

His agile posture, especially his determined eyes, made the woman next to him feel her heart fluttering, her ears slightly red, and she secretly took a few more glances at him.

If Xu Luo had not intervened, these two crazy horses would have run rampant on the crowded Zhuque Street, with disastrous consequences.

Just being hit once would have caused countless casualties. Now, because of his bravery, all this has been avoided. How can people not be grateful?

In front of Xu Luo's fortune-telling stall, the Tibetan envoy Buda sat upright with a serious face. Thinking of the thrilling scene just now, if Xu Luo had not rescued him, he would have been killed by the mad horse's hoof.

Buda knew that if something happened to him, not only would he be in danger, but it would also bring great trouble to the Tang Dynasty. Songtsen Gampo was ambitious, and it was no secret that he coveted the Tang Dynasty.
