Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 173: Mrs. 9
The next day.
Lutong is the same as before.
Get up early and familiarize yourself with killing methods in the martial arts training ground.
We fought for half an hour last night.
Jing Xin’s natal spells have improved a lot.
Lu Tong also had some understanding.
The Cloud Sword and the Wind Sword are like flying swords and long knives.
If you are not familiar with the sword, you will not be able to exert its true power.
You have to find a master to practice your skills with.
"Boom, boom."
There was a knock on the door.
Dian Si'er went over and opened the door.
Song Yanbai entered the courtyard.
"Brother Lu, long time no see, your strength has improved again."
Lu Tong gathered his magic power.
Looking back towards the tower.
Fortunately, Jing Xin went back and did not stay at the fence.
"Brother Song, why are you free to come here today?"
Since the last transaction.
Song Yanbai never came again.
I met Lu Tong a few times when he was pretending to be a guard in the city lord's mansion.
But Song Yanbai didn't recognize him.
"Brother Lu, you are in trouble."
"What?"
Song Yanbai shook his head with a smile and walked straight towards the tower.
Lu Tong frowned.
According to Song Yanbai’s character, it shouldn’t be a lie.
In the lobby.
Sit down separately.
Song Yanbai did not give in and said directly: "Brother Lu, someone has filed a complaint against you to the city lord."
"What do you mean?"
"Yesterday, the city lord married a Taoist couple. Someone booked a banquet at a restaurant, but later deducted the money from the restaurant. Is this possible?"
Lu Tong felt something in his heart and said with a stern face: "Which **** is pouring dirty water on me!"
I offended a lot of restaurants last night.
There are also several threats.
However, I didn’t take it to heart.
There are a lot of talkers, but few people dare to take action.
If you are doing open business in a restaurant, you are most afraid of encountering people who are causing trouble and using tricks behind your back.
Unexpectedly, I met a master who was willing to kill himself.
Thoughts flashed through his mind.
Once the city lord investigates and checks all ninety-seven restaurants one by one, half of the accounts will be clear.
The Zhen family and Jing Xin both know the other half.
Cannot be checked.
Only those who make mistakes can make money.
Once it is found out, the matter of him fishing in troubled waters will be revealed.
"Brother Lu?"
"Huh?"
Song Yanbai had a smile in his eyes.
As soon as he heard about this, Song Yanbai knew that it was most likely true.
"Brother Lu, don't panic. Madam Ninth has already stopped this trivial matter."
"That Ninth Lady from Canxiang Tower?"
"Exactly. To be honest with Brother Lu, I have been working under Madam Ninth. I came here today to send a message to Madam Ninth. If you were one of our own, this matter would end here."
Mrs. Ninth, Mrs. Mountain...
The city lord's mansion has a lot of business.
Except for a few confidants, a large part of the business is controlled by a few wives.
The Ninth Lady is also one of them.
Lu Tong has heard about Madam Ninth.
The owner of Canxiang Building.
Many wives and young ladies from wealthy families often go to Canxiang Tower for recreation.
Lu Tong was a little moved and said, "What do you need me to do?"
"Brother Lu, if you are interested, you may wish to follow me to Canxiang Tower and interview Madam Ninth."
"Let me think about it."
"Okay, I'll come back tomorrow night."
Song Yanbai left.
Beside the two of them, there was an empty seat.
Jing Xin's figure suddenly appeared and said, "Are you in trouble?"
Lu Tong nodded, then immediately shook his head.
"No trouble."
As long as the city lord and Jing Xin don’t come together to reconcile the accounts, there will be no trouble.
Jing Xin nodded slightly and said, "You and Song Yanbai are still together."
After Lu Tong hesitated for a moment, he asked: "Chief Immortal, what mistake did Brother Song make, and why was he expelled from the Quee Palace?"
Actually, the question is not about Quee Palace.
But why Song Yanbai was kicked.
Jing Xin heard the intention, glanced at Lu Tong, and said with a chuckle: "You have a great contribution to this matter! We fellow sisters, you have solved the problem easily for several years."
"Huh?"
"Did you make a fortune with Song Yanbai?"
"Thanks to Brother Song, I made a small fortune by refining secret stones for the sect."
"After that, Song Yanbai took on a few more businesses through his junior sister. He made many 'bad friends' and contracted many bad habits."
Lu Tong smiled twice.
Somewhat uncertain.
Among the "dog friends", he is not one of them.
Before Jing Xin finished speaking, he suddenly changed the subject and said, "Actually, Song Yanbai didn't do much wrong. It's a pity that he met his junior sister."
Lu Tong nodded, feeling a little sad in his heart.
Song Yanbai is not bad.
When the fake secret stone was first refined, only Song Yanbai was reluctant.
Kindness, integrity...
Although I haven't been upright for long.
To some extent, he is the same type of person as Bai Qiao.
What a pity.
The two people's backgrounds are worlds apart.
……
East of the city, near the corner of the city wall.
A lush forest.
Baise flower tree, the tree is full of various flowers.
The flowers are as big as human faces.
In the night, illuminated by lights, they look like strange human faces.
The rich floral fragrance wafts in the wind.
Lu Tong took a sniff and said, "The fragrance is so strong, why is it called Canxiang Tower?"
Aside.
Song Yanbai said: "Because as long as I have been here, even if I leave, there will still be a strong fragrance on my body."
"Wrong."
Lu Tong shook his head and said, "You don't have it."
"I have special powder to remove fragrance."
"It's just a scent, it doesn't hurt or itch, whatever it does."
Song Yanbai recalled the past.
He looked pained and stopped talking.
After a while.
Two maids came out, each holding a tall and strange flag.
The flagpole is one and a half feet long.
The flag is like a white python as thick as a water tank, hanging down from the top and falling to the ground.
"Brother Lu, let's go."
Song Yanbai walked up to himself and got into a flag.
All over the body, front and back, left and right.
Covered by a white flag.
The maid held the flag, and Song Yanbai hid under it.
The two entered the forest path together.
Lu Tong shook his head and also got into a flag.
Can't see the road.
Can't move my legs.
I walked for a while very uncomfortable, and the sound of piano, singing, and a woman's laughter began to ring in my ears.
After walking for a long time, all the sounds gradually disappeared.
The flag is taken away.
The eyes turned into a lake.
A two-story building in the middle of the lake was lit with lights.
"Brother Lu, please."
Song Yanbai untied the rope from the tree and released a small boat.
Lu Tong looked around and said, "Brother Song is not going?"
Song Yanbai shook his head.
He stepped onto the boat.
The boat is made of special materials and emits a musky smell.
Close to the small building.
The closer it is, the stronger the fragrance is in your nose.
In the end, the fragrance was even disgusting, worse than the stink.
Walk up the driftwood outside the small building.
Tie the boat to the post.
Lu Tong stood at the door, cupped his hands and said: "Lu Tong, meet the Ninth Madam."
"Come in."
"Yes."
As you enter the door, the fragrance suddenly fades.
It doesn’t smell good, but it smells better.
He couldn't help but relax, took a long breath, and slowly exhaled it.
The interior of the building~IndoMTL.com~ is elegantly decorated.
Except for a few tables and chairs, there are screens all around.
On the screen, there are no common landscapes, beauties, monsters, or flowers.
But it is filled with handwriting.
"There are one hundred and thirty people in the Baili family. The head of the family has completed the foundation construction. There are three chambers of commerce in the family, one is Jieshui Lake, the other is Jinchi Lake..."
"Huang Xuan, his identity is unknown and his real name is in doubt. He lives in the Deyun Inn. He has a rich net worth and will win every bet."
"Huansha, today's market price is three yuan per catty, which is 30% lower than a month ago."
"Ghost fog, the west..."
Scan at a glance.
Lu Tong's heart skipped a beat and he immediately lowered his head.
"Raise your head and let me take a good look."
A voice sounded, a little hoarse.
Lu Tong raised his head.
Not far away, beside the screen, stood a plump woman wearing a white plain robe.
The face is round and very fleshy.
Holding a pipe in his left hand and a writing brush in his right hand.
He glanced at it, shifted his eyes slightly, and said, "I've met Mrs. Ninth!"
"You look like a big guy but you're so weird when it comes to doing things. Find a place to sit by yourself."
Madam Ninth threw away the brush and walked behind a screen.
Lu Tong sat down nearby.
This Ninth Madam is completely different from what was expected in terms of appearance, temperament, words and deeds.
He was a little unsure and a little cautious in his heart.
After a while.
Mrs. Ninth personally brought out a cup of tea, walked to Lu Tong's side, and put down the tea cup.
Turn around and sit on a nearby chair.
"I checked on you. Is your backer the same as the Zhen family?"
"Yes."
Lu Tong glanced down.
Mrs. Ninth put her left leg on her right leg, raised her left foot, and half of her foot stuck out of her robe.
No shoes.
Like the face, the feet are also very fleshy.
