Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 4: Net, bow, arrows, oil, wine
The sun was scorching across the sky, and there were few pedestrians on the street.
The Liangyao Tea House didn’t open its door, and there was a clanging sound coming from inside.
In the teahouse, Lu Tong was riding on the beam, nailing the animal trap he had just bought under the beam.
Viewed from below, the animal trap looks like a hanging black baggage.
Many people hang steamed buns, tofu skins and the like from the beams of the house. Hanging a baggage in the middle of the teahouse is relatively rare, but it is not too out of the ordinary.
Lu Tong followed the beam and led the rope that opened the animal trap to the corner.
It hangs all the way down to the ground along the dark corner of the wall.
At that time, you only need to pull the rope hard, and the large net above will fall down immediately, large enough to cover two tables.
In addition to the rope, there was a bow, three arrows with yellow paper on the ends, and a bucket of sticky eagles placed in the dark corner.
The bow and net were purchased from a nearby blacksmith shop.
The arrows are talisman arrows, and behind each arrow is wrapped a magic talisman "Qi Sword Art", which is also a treasure of blacksmith Liu in the blacksmith shop.
The sticky eagle is a barrel of black oil. It is not heavy but very viscous. Even if the eagle demon is stained with this oil, it will not be able to fly. It is often used to deal with birds.
The business of the teahouse is getting better and better these days, and the bronze elephants containing money are almost full.
But this morning, I only went out for one trip and it was all spent.
Lu Tong sat on the stool, looking at the surrounding arrangements, and finally felt a little more at ease.
"Bang Bang, is Shopkeeper Lu here?"
There was a knock on the teahouse door, and a woman's voice sounded familiar.
Lu Tong quickly guessed who was outside the door.
90% of the people drinking tea in the teahouse are men. Among the women he has spoken to recently, only Ku Meiqin has such a soft tone.
Lu Tong opened the door a crack and saw Ku Meiqin and Wang Cheng standing side by side outside the door.
"You?"
It happened so quickly.
According to Lu Tong's plan, he also wanted to deal with Wang Cheng's parents in the teahouse.
Wang Cheng smiled stupidly and said nothing.
Bumi Qin’s round fox eyes narrowed into a thin slit.
"Come in and sit."
After the two came in, Lu Tong closed the door again.
Wang Cheng found a table and sat down.
Kumeiqin looked around and asked, "Shopkeeper, are you busy today? Why don't you open the door?"
Lu Tong had already thought of an excuse and said with a smile: "Business has been good recently. I am thinking about adding some meat dishes in the future. I will buy a pig to kill and make braised pork later."
Killing pigs is real, braised pork is only secondary.
You will definitely get blood if you kill bird feathers at night. There is a mixed bag of neighbors around the teahouse. Although their cultivation levels are not high, some of them have a very sensitive sense of smell.
He planned to kill the pig in advance and bleed it to suppress the smell of blood.
Wang Cheng immediately became energetic after hearing "buy pigs", straightened his back and said: "Shopkeeper, come to me if you want to buy pigs. Although my family only sells vegetables, there are relatives outside the city who raise pigs."
Lu Tong naturally had no objection: "I want it in the afternoon, can I make it in time?"
"There's enough time. His family has a butcher shop in the city. I'll take you there now. Do you want to kill the ones that have been killed or the ones that haven't been killed?"
When it comes to familiar business, Wang Cheng seems much more confident and no longer hesitates when speaking.
Ku Meiqin sat next to her and smiled, pulling her little husband with her hand before he came through the door, and whispered: "I forgot what we came for."
Wang Cheng blushed and lowered his head.
Kumeiqin took out a red invitation and a gift wrapped in red paper from her storage bracelet, and handed it to Wang Cheng.
Wang Cheng handed it over with a blushing face and whispered: "Shopkeeper, thanks to you this time, we have made a date. Please come over and have a wedding banquet."
Lu Tong took it and said casually: "It's so fast."
Kumeiqin has already had an experience, and she is not shy at all. She said openly: "Of course, the sooner the better, the better."
Wang Cheng blushed even more after hearing this.
Lu Tong squeezed the gift bag, weighed it again, and knew the amount of the reward. He congratulated with a smile: "Not bad! Congratulations to both of you in advance, Lu will definitely go then."
The three of them sat for a while.
Lu Tong and Wang Cheng made an appointment to pick pigs, and the couple then went to the next house to send invitations.
The two left, and Lu Tong immediately opened the red paper bag.
There is an ingot of silver held inside. The silver is shiny and the surface is covered with fine lines. It looks very attractive.
Five taels of silver!
It is equivalent to five thousand copper coins, which is equivalent to the teahouse's monthly income.
With money in his pocket, Lu Tong looked at the various arrangements in the teahouse and immediately felt that it was not safe. He always felt that he had to spend all his money to be safe.
……
Afternoon.
As agreed, Lu Tong took Dahan to the vegetable market to buy pigs from Wang Cheng.
Walking to the pig pen and looking at the big fat pigs, Lu Tong felt very familiar for some reason.
When he turned around and saw Dahan's pig head, he realized that Dahan's mother or father was a pig demon, which could be said to be half a pig.
It seems inappropriate to kill a pig in front of Dahan...
"Dahan, do you eat pork?"
Dahan stared at the fat pig in the pen attentively, pursed his lips and said: "Pork, fragrant, makes your mouth water."
After speaking, he swallowed a large mouthful of saliva.
The sound was so loud that everyone nearby heard a "dong" sound.
Lu Tong smiled and shook his head and said: "Then buy two. Kill one today, and then kill the second when you finish eating."
"Okay."
Dahan was a tall man and stepped directly into the pig pen. After looking around for a week, he reached out and patted the heads of two pigs.
The pig pen was opened, and the two pigs followed Dahan out obediently without help from others.
Buy wine ~IndoMTL.com~ and go home.
Kill pigs and stew meat.
The night is getting darker.
Dahan ate a whole pork leg and lay down behind the counter to rest.
Lu Tong sat on the table in the middle of the teahouse, waiting for the arrival of Bird Feather.
Time passed little by little, and a dull breathing sound of "huhu" sounded in the quiet teahouse.
Lu Tong knew without looking that Dahan must have fallen asleep.
"Dahan."
Dahan didn’t respond at all.
In the entire plan, Dahan's sneak attack can be said to be the most important part.
Lu Tong originally trusted Dahan's accuracy, but when things came to pass, he began to worry about Dahan's IQ.
"Gada!"
Lutong stomped the floor hard with his hoof.
Dahan suddenly stood up from behind the counter, looked around, widened his eyes and said, "Boss, what are you doing?"
"Hey."
Lu Tong sighed helplessly: "Go and make a pot of strong tea. The old bee wine is too strong. I want it to sober up."
"Oh."
As soon as Dahan agreed, a shrill voice of bird feathers came from the backyard: "Old bee wine?"
The huge gray wings opened the curtain leading to the backyard.
The bird's feather head appeared first, then the long neck came in, and finally the gray crane's body walked in probingly.
The dark crane's legs were almost four feet long, and he walked to the table in three to five steps.
Niao Feo moved his buttocks and sat down, straightened his neck and leaned over the wine bottle and took a deep breath.
"What day is it today? I'm actually willing to buy Laofei wine!"
Lu Tong picked up the wine jar and poured a full bowl of bird feathers, and said with a smile: "I wish us success in building the foundation in advance."
"Haha, done it!"
The two half-demon each drank a bowl.
