Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 81: Inquire

At night.

A cool breeze blew from Jieshui Lake, and the temperature on the pier dropped sharply.

The shrimp fishing boat took advantage of the darkness and sailed into the lake.

On the shore, in an inn.

Lu Tong sat upright on the bed, folding his hands in his arms.

A cloud of smoke slowly came out from his mouth and nose. The cloud smoke was as red as blood, passing through his chest and falling to his palms.

In the palm of the hand, mana rotates.

The clouds and smoke then rotated, forming a spiral cloud.

During the rotation, mana gradually merges into the clouds and smoke.

The red color begins to fade, eventually turning into light red.

After a while, as Lu Tong inhaled, the cloud smoke penetrated into the body from his mouth and nose.

Between spitting and inhaling, the cloud became bigger and bigger.

Lu Tong's face became paler and paler.

Half an hour later.

Lu Tong took a long breath and opened his eyes.

A feeling of weakness came over me, and I couldn't help but sway slightly.

Dian Si'er hurried over to help him, took out a red jade bottle and said, "Master, use the elixir quickly."

Lu Tong opened his mouth.

Dian Si'er poured out an Eight Treasure Pill to increase blood energy and put it into his mouth.

The elixir enters the abdomen, and a few strands of warmth disperse like limbs and bones.

Lu Tong cheered up and looked at the cloud in his hand.

Three qi corpse smoke, one strand of corpse qi is missing.

It is made using only blood and mana.

With a slight movement of his spiritual thoughts, the clouds and smoke the size of a baggage dispersed with a "bang", occupying the entire bed in an instant.

The dense clouds and smoke turned into thin red mist.

Lu Tong stretched out his palm, and the clouds quickly condensed into his palm, eventually forming a ball of red eggs the size of an egg.

The divine thought moved again, and the red eggs flew out fiercely.

Lifting the curtain beside the bed, it bumped into the bedpost.

The red egg collapsed into a ball of red smoke, but the bedpost was not damaged at all.

Lu Tong took a long breath, and the billowing red smoke entered his mouth and nose and was absorbed into his body.

Dian Si'er made a pot of tea and asked: "Master, this spell is not powerful, so why bother to practice it."

Lu Tong shook his head and said: "It's not great now, but it may not be in the future."

The three-qi corpse smoke is missing the most critical corpse qi.

That’s why it seems useless.

However, there are countless geniuses and treasures in Jieshui Lake. Sooner or later, you will encounter a treasure that can replace the corpse energy.

That was the time when "Three Qi Corpse Smoke" truly became a success.

……

In the hotel box.

Lu Tong and others sat together to eat.

Just like during the Chinese New Year, Lu Tong sat in the middle.

On one side are the five Dian Si'er sisters; on the other side are Dahan, Lao Hantou and Erhu.

The calf is in the hay shed.

The table is full of fish, shrimp, crab and shellfish.

Both Dahan and Erhu have no appetite.

After Lu Tong finished eating a crab the size of his head, he felt as if he had not eaten anything.

My stomach is empty and I feel uneasy.

"Si'er, go order some cooked pork, raw beef, and two cages of steamed buns."

Dahan and Erhu suddenly became energetic.

"Boss, I want braised pig head."

"Boss, I heard that there is a python-tailed buffalo here, can you try it?"

Lu Tong glanced at the two of them and said, "The taste is so weird, have you learned the scale-growing technique?"

Under the Jieshui Lake, the undercurrent is like a knife.

After entering the water, you will either have a weapon to deal with it, a defensive spell, or you will be physically strong.

On the way, Lu Tong passed on the scale-growing technique obtained outside Hukou Pass to several people.

But they learn slowly.

Dahan and Erhu were both silent.

Lu Tong shook his head and said, "Erhu, will you go out after dinner later?"

"Boss, what's going on?"

"Ask two people to come over and ask about buying a boat."

"Oh."

Dian Si'er came back to the room.

Soon, braised pork elbow, soy sauce pig head, raw cut python tail, etc. were delivered one after another.

……

In the room, the leftovers on the table have been taken away.

Lu Tong is still sitting in the main seat.

Two monks stood opposite.

A young man who looked to be less than twenty years old.

One is very muscular, with strong and huge muscles that hold up his clothes, like the big crab he just ate.

"What do you call it?"

"Little money."

"Cui Qun."

Xiao Qian was a monk who talked too much during the day and was slapped.

Cui Qunze is vaguely the leader of several monks.

"Sit."

The two sat down carefully.

"Don't be nervous, I came to you to inquire about something."

Seeing that they looked very uneasy, Lu Tong poured two cups of tea, pushed it over and said, "If everything goes well, I will take that ship."

The two looked at each other.

Xiao Qian's face already showed joy.

After working hard outside for several months, I ended up with no wages and only a fishing boat that no one dared to buy or drive out.

Even Cui Qun, who seemed calm, widened his eyes.

"How much do you pay?"

"As you said, I remember it was, five hundred taels?"

The joy on their faces diminished a lot.

A total of six hundred taels of wages were owed.

If you sell it for five hundred taels, each person has to take less.

Or two people don’t take it.

But they didn’t dare to bargain.

The fishing boat has been listed for more than half a month and cannot be sold at all.

If you delay any longer, you will have to admit defeat.

Lu Tong picked up the tea cup, took a sip slowly, and said, "However, if you can provide enough information, the price is not non-negotiable, for example, an additional one hundred taels."

"What do you want to know?"

Xiao Qian couldn't help but asked directly.

No one blamed him for talking this time.

Lu Tong smiled and asked: "What are you doing on the boat?"

"Fishing, fishing for shrimps, occasionally going into the water to find sea treasures, whatever you want to do to make money."

"Do you earn more?"

"It's okay. If you're lucky, you'll get more than ten taels a month. If you're not lucky, you'll get three or five taels."

Lu Tong raised his eyebrows.

To make so much money, it sounds much more profitable than running a teahouse.

"Is it easy to do?"

"Exchange your life for money, sleep three hours a day, and spend the rest of the time doing nothing but eating."

Lu Tong shook his head.

This kind of money is too hard for him to make.

As for the trick of turning the river into a shark and making more money, it's a pity that he can't do it.

After being polite, Xiao Qian and Cui Qun slowly relaxed.

Lu Tong then got down to the topic and asked: "A shark in a river or a shark in a sea, what kind of cultivation is it?"

"Later stage of Qi training."

Cui Qun added: "The river shark is at the eighth level of Qi training, and the sea shark is almost at the foundation."

"Fast? What do you mean?"

"When I was on the boat, I heard that the Sea Shark had been trying to build a foundation for several years, and it only lacked one material, the 'White Bone Snake Vine'."

After Cui Qun finished speaking, Xiao Qian nodded in agreement.

"No wonder, when I first got on the boat, someone asked me if I had seen the White Bone Snake Vine."

It’s almost time to build a foundation, and it’s also a Qi training stage. ~IndoMTL.com~ The true improvement of strength in the foundation-building realm is when the meridians are completely condensed in the soul and supernatural powers are nurtured.

And the magic power circulates non-stop in the meridians, and a little bit of pure essence becomes the magic fluid.

"What methods are they good at?"

"I have never seen a sea shark take action. The river shark can stir up a big water snake with its three-pronged fork. And..."

"I heard that they are twin brothers and learned the same technique."

"How many helpers do they have?"

"Three,..."

"Five, one specializes in selling things on the shore, and one..."

Two people, one word and one word.

Lu Tong figured out bit by bit the details of the sharks in the river and the sharks in the sea.

……

The next day.

Beside the lake, there is a boat trading market.

Under the witness of the steward.

Lu Tong took out 600 taels of silver and bought the Crazy Shark boat and the mortgage note.

Leading the calf onto the deck.

Dahan, Erhu, and Lao Hantou ran over to look with curiosity on their faces.

Four big spiders also slipped into the cabin.

Lu Tong stood on the deck and looked not far away.

On the dark silver ship, a figure was staring at them.

Dian Si'er said: "Master, when will we enter the lake?"

"No rush."

Lu Tong looked at the empty deck and said, "Buy something more. There are armor-piercing giant crossbows here that are specially designed to hunt large water monsters. Let's buy two."

The giant crossbow can deal with both water monsters and monks.

Dian Si'er was thoughtful.

"Master, I heard that there are also gold wire nets to trap fish. Do you want to buy two of them too?"

"Okay."

"There are also double snake twisters for catching crab monsters and catkin bags for dealing with monster birds..."
