Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 50: Buy tea


Outside the customs.

The sky is high and the clouds are thin.

The land is vast and boundless.

On a Gobi rocky beach, thick shouts came from several low rocky mountains.

"Hey, hey, push harder!"

"Hey!"

A large piece of rock collapsed with the sound of shouting.

Not far from the bottom of the mountain, there is a row of fire pits one foot long and one foot wide.

There was a raging flame under the pit, and in the middle was a layer of red-burned stone slabs, which was covered with a layer of gravel.

Blacksmith Liu stood by the fire pit and held out a giant hammer.

The hammer fell again and again, pressing the gravel into the stone slab.

Beside the fire pit, Lu Tong was riding on the back of the calf.

Song Yanbai was shirtless and pulled two black donkeys to deliver a load of gravel. He stood next to Lu Tong and said, "Is it time for dinner?"

"Morning."

The sunshine outside the pass is very poisonous.

In just a few days, Song Yanbai's skin turned black and red due to the sun.

Song Yanbai leaned on the black donkey and did not move for a long time.

Lu Tong waited for a while, frowned and said: "Okay, enough rest, I have never seen anyone lazy when working for me."

Song Yanbai's face turned red, he picked up the black donkey, and said with envy and resentment: "When will your legs be able to go to the ground?"

"Morning."

……

A few days later.

Lu Tong sat in the wooden house in the ravine and carefully took out a small bush of needles.

Jue python ginseng has abundant blood energy.

The puncture needle is opened and put into the boiling water. A string of tiny bubbles emerges from the end of the needle, pushing the puncture needle to move.

Everywhere we passed, the tea quickly turned red.

It looks like red snakes with pointed heads slithering through the cup.

Soon, the whole cup of tea turned as red as blood.

Lu Tong picked up the tea cup, blew on the hot air twice, and drank it all in one gulp.

The heat flows down the throat and into the abdomen. Countless rays of rich blood energy exploded and scattered to the limbs and bones.

He held his breath and immediately cast the demon transformation spell.

Mana flows into the legs.

The blood energy was also gathered under the knees by the magic power.

Various sounds suddenly sounded in the cabin:

"Creak, sizzle..."

Bones, tendons, blood, skin, and flesh change rapidly at a perceptible speed.

After half a stick of incense, various sounds gradually became weaker.

Lu Tong looked down.

The soles of the feet became shorter, wider, and thicker, and a very solid pad of flesh grew underneath.

At the front end, one short and four long stick out, with five thick phalanges.

He is very satisfied with these feet.

The bones are thick, indicating that the soles of the feet are very powerful.

There are five toes on the left and right, eight of which are long enough to maintain balance on various terrains.

Can run and jump wildly.

You can also make sudden stops and sharp turns.

Lu Tong couldn't help but smile.

At this time, Blacksmith Liu pushed the door open and barged in: "Old Lu, that's not right."

A cool breeze blew in.

Lu Tong pulled a quilt over his legs and said, "What's wrong?"

Blacksmith Liu frowned and said, "I just did the math, excluding wages, charcoal, plaster, gray silver wire, etc., there is no profit at all!"

Lu Tong was a little surprised and said: "No profit at all?"

"That's not true. You can earn almost one tael for a day's work. But in this ungrateful place, only three people can earn such a small amount of money. They might as well be in Yunying City!"

One tael of silver a day, divided among three people.

Each person can be divided into ten taels per month.

The monthly profit of the tea shop is almost the same amount.

But Blacksmith Liu’s blacksmith shop earns more than this every month.

Lu Tong remained silent.

Tiejiang Liu asked: "Lao Lu, how about... forget it?"

Lu Tong looked at Blacksmith Liu.

Liu Tiejiang averted his eyes guiltily.

Lu Tong's face darkened and he said: "You continue tomorrow, I will pull a cart of dense stones to deliver the goods, and I will inquire about the news along the way."

After several life-and-death fights, he has developed some evil spirit.

Tiejiang Liu was so worried that he didn't dare to say anything.

……

Niu Duzi pulled five stone slabs and approached the construction site.

"Stop! What are you doing?"

Two monks came to block the way.

Lu Tong took out the pass token and said: "I'm here to deliver the secret stone."

"Turn left ahead, and there is a queue. You are not allowed to go anywhere else."

"Understood."

Outside a fenced-in open space, many animal carts were queuing up.

These beast-carts range from large to small.

The big wheel alone is as tall as two people, and the wheel that pulls the cart is like a hill.

The smaller ones are also pulled by several cows, dragging dozens of dense stones behind them.

Lu Tong did not queue up.

Instead, he parked the ox cart beside him and lay on the stone slab looking ahead.

Time passed little by little, and Lu Tong remained motionless most of the time. Occasionally, he would lower his head and think for a moment, with a smile on his face.

It is getting late.

When an animal cart pulled by three giant-hoofed donkeys came out, Lu Tong chased after him on an eight-clawed chair and said, "Brother, stay!"

There was a middle-aged man in the car.

He was in a very good mood, with a smile on his long face.

Lu Tong went over and said, "Brother, I want to ask you something."

"What happened?"

Lu Tong leaned over and said with a smile: "Dude, did you come from afar?"

"Not bad, more than a hundred miles."

Lu Tong nodded and said seriously: "Amazing! Brother, these three giant-hoofed donkeys have dragged fifty-seven dense stones for more than a hundred miles, and they are still full of energy. Are they different species of divine donkeys?"

The middle-aged man's face instantly darkened.

"What do you mean?"

Lu Tong smiled and said: "Brother, I don't mean any harm. I just want to ask you what's going on?"

He looked here for most of the day.

I found many animal carts pulling the same amount of dense stones, but the wheels sunk to different depths.

Moreover, some beast carts are obviously filled with dense stones, but the monsters pulling the carts are not tired at all.

Dense stone is very heavy.

Nu Xiaozi is born with great strength, but he can hardly walk after only pulling five pieces.

There is something fishy here.

Lu Tong found many suspicious beasts, but the beasts did not dare to provoke them, so they chose this unlucky guy after thousands of choices.

The middle-aged man looked back at the other beast carts around him.

Looking at the patrolling guards again, their expressions darkened and changed.

Lu Tong did not continue to press.

Although this middle-aged man looks fierce~IndoMTL.com~, his face is sallow, skinny, and his steps are chaotic. He is no match for him.

After a while, the middle-aged man said coldly: "There is Pei's Teahouse in the north."

After speaking, the middle-aged man whipped his whip and wanted to leave.

Lu Tong frowned and took out a short stick.

A foot and a half long dark gold short stick, as thick as a goose egg, struck out a handful of dazzling sparks as it passed through the air.

Mars is fleeting.

Lu Tong's face was illuminated for a moment, then merged into the darkness, and he said: "Brother, since you have already spoken, you might as well speak more clearly."

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "The owner of that teahouse is the steward who examines secret stones."

After speaking, the middle-aged man remained motionless for a long time.

After a while, he said again: "Go to the teahouse to buy tea. There is a jade pendant in the tea. Just wear it when delivering it."

"I will remember you. If you dare to lie to me, you will stay here every day from now on."

"Don't dare, don't dare."

"Let's go."

The middle-aged man felt relieved, whipped him hard, and quickly walked away.

……

Outside the construction site, there is a very shabby market.

Lu Tong rode in on a calf and finally found the "Pei's Teahouse" in the corner.

There are only two tables in the teahouse.

There is also a fat woman wearing heavy makeup.

"But Mrs. Pei?"

The fat woman looked at Lu Tong's cassock, her eyes brightened and she said, "Dear guest, please sit inside quickly."

Lu Tong went in sitting on the eight-claw chair and slapped the pass token on the table.

"Buy tea."

The fat woman smiled and took out two bags of tea.

"This thirty taels of silver is called 'Open Eyes to Blind', and this ten taels of silver is called 'Facial Brightness'. Which one do you want?"
