Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 204: Hard bones


The shed is very crude.

Four pieces of wood are inserted into the sand and covered with a layer of cloth or straw mat.

A white-robed monk was sitting under the shed, leaning on a sword.

Five shirtless monks stood behind him.

Two hyenas, nearly ten feet long, were eating in a large pot.

There was a circle of people around, including two children holding empty bowls and staring eagerly at the pot.

Lu Tong looked around and stared at the white-robed monk.

"Sacrifice to Wolf Pagoda Flag Leader Lu Tong. What do you call Taoist friends?"

"Flying sand wolf, Fang Huan."

Sand bandits are generally not called by their names, but by their bandits.

The people in Doumen Tower are very arrogant.

I used to be a bandit, but now I have joined the fort and still have a bandit number.

The master of the tower, Dou Tong, has thirty-six confidants, known as the "Three Eagles, Nine Wolves, and Twenty-Four Snakes".

He was a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, for such a small friction, Dou Menta would be one of the Nine Wolves to come forward.

"Fellow Daoist Fang, what do you want when you come here?"

"My Shatian was destroyed, but your people did it. There are three acres of ginseng and two acres of burnt wheat."

"Who did it?"

Lu Tong stared at each one.

Only a few people dared to stare at each other, while most of them tightened their lips and lowered their heads.

"How much was the total loss?"

Fang Huan rubbed the hilt of his sword with his fingers and said: "Not many, a dozen taels. But a piece of land was destroyed, and it is not easy to reclaim Shatian. It's a few dozen taels."

Lu Tong frowned slightly and asked, "Fellow Daoist Fang, do you know who the murderer is?"

"I don't know, but it must be your people. Half a month ago, your people destroyed Shatin, and the leader at that time was Fellow Daoist Feng Sanleng."

"The murderer was not found last time?"

Fang Huan pressed the hilt of the sword with his palm and shook it from side to side, with a slightly playful smile on his face.

"No, but Feng Daoyou recognized the matter and asked each household to pay one penny to compensate for our losses."

He looked away and thought to himself: What a good plan.

If you don’t pay compensation, Doumenta will have an excuse to come and cause trouble in the future;

If you lose money, there will be a third time if there is a second time. And if he gives in this time, he will not be able to raise his head in the future.

"I will definitely give an explanation to my Taoist friends tomorrow."

"Okay."

Fang Huan stood up, walked to Lu Tong's side, and said, "At noon tomorrow, you will either hand over people or money."

A group of people and dogs left in a swaggering manner.

Lu Tong walked to the chair and sat down where Fang Huan had sat.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

A group of people were all talking:

"This is too much! This is the second time..."

"It has nothing to do with my family, I was in the tower yesterday..."

"They destroyed the fields themselves..."

"Stop!"

He pointed to a young monk and said, "Say."

The young man was around twenty, with fierce eyes. When others spoke, they kept clenching their teeth and remained silent.

"They have knives, and so do we!"

The expressions of the people around him changed and they all looked at Lu Tong.

Lu Tong smiled and said, "Last time you had a knife, why did you pay for it?"

"Last time, the person named Feng turned against outsiders! As long as the flag leader helps us, we will fight with them this time!"

Before Lu Tong could speak, several people immediately retorted.

"What are you going to fight for? People from the Dou sect have been bandits and don't want to live anymore?"

"We are all from Xingshan Fort and cannot fight or kill."

"There must be a misunderstanding this time. Let's go to the tower owner and let the tower owner and the people from Doumen Tower make it clear."

"Did someone really destroy other people's Shatin?"

"That's it! Whoever did it should stand up and don't hurt everyone."

Lu Tong shook his head.

"Stop arguing! You have also heard that you have to pay money or pay someone. I will wait for you in the cabin tonight. Who knows the murderer or has other ways to come to me?"

After that, he stood up and left.

As soon as he walked away.

The two children holding the empty bowls immediately ran over to pick up their own iron pots.

……

"Flaghead?"

In the small house, Lu Tong sat cross-legged on the bed.

Zhao Xijiang came over and stood beside him.

"What happened?"

"Boss, don't be fooled by those guys, they are the best at pretending to be pitiful."

"What?"

"Eighty percent of them did it."

"How do you know?"

"They are the only ones who would do such a thing. Doumenta does not allow them to build houses, and they want revenge."

"Why don't you allow houses to be built in Doumen Tower?"

There are several "ruins" around the hut.

You can vaguely see the traces of the previous sand-breaking construction work. In some places, walls have even been erected and then torn down.

Zhao Xijiang was silent for a few moments and said: "They are afraid that they will not be able to protect Shatian. According to the rules of each fort, whoever is closest to his home will go to his home. If they suppress it at the beginning, they can suppress it for a lifetime."

"It seems you know everything."

There was movement outside the door.

Lu Tong stood up and stretched his muscles.

Zhao Xijiang sighed and whispered: "Qitou, Gu Guanshi specifically ordered us to weigh the pros and cons."

He glanced at it and said, "What are the pros and cons?"

Zhao Xijiang's scorched face wrinkled into a ball.

"Just, that is, if you take a step back and everyone is safe, this is a benefit. If you don't retreat, you will lose a big thing for a small amount, which is a disadvantage."

"Get out!"

Zhao Xijiang went out.

Three strong young monks got into the hut, closed the door, and knelt on the ground together.

"Please take the lead!"

Lu Tong took out the tea set and while making tea, said: "Who is the boss?"

"The people from Dou Sect have bullied us several times, please take action!"

"You were bullied. You didn't take action yourself, so you asked me to take action? Am I the leader or your buddy?"

"We want to take action, but Dou Sect takes the lead in the Foundation Establishment Realm."

"I am also building a foundation."

The three people's eyes lit up and they stared at Lu Tong with wide eyes.

He smiled and said: "I will not sit idly by if the big one bullies the small one. You can make up your own mind for the rest."

"Thank you Qitou!"

The three of them left quickly with fire in their eyes.

More people came in one after another.

"Qi Tou, I know who did it. The eldest and second eldest son of the Xiao family, whose half-built house was pushed down, secretly took revenge."

"Qitou, how about I collect the money for you? One penny for each family, and I guarantee that no one will be left behind."

……

Noon the next day.

Fang Huan arrived outside the hut on time with his five men and two wild hyenas.

"Friend Lu, the murderer has not been found?"

"No."

Lu Tong shook his head. ~IndoMTL.com~Where’s the money? ”

"Get ready, let's go, I'll accompany fellow Taoist there."

Fang Huan looked around, then turned back and glanced at his subordinates.

"Okay."

A group of people walked near the shed.

A large area of ​​simple shacks, with several people standing at the door of each house.

The faces are different.

Some did not notice anything was wrong and looked at the people in Doumen with disgust on their faces;

Some felt the atmosphere was weird, but didn’t know what was going on, and looked around in panic;

Some had fierce eyes and stood motionless at the door, staring at the people in Doumen.

"Fellow Daoist Lu?"

Lu Tong nodded, stretched out his hand to signal, and said loudly: "Fellow Taoist Fang, please! One penny per household."

Fang Huan tightly grasped the hilt of the sword.

The situation is not right, but we cannot retreat. If we retreat this time, all our previous efforts will be wasted.

"Old noble, bring someone to collect the money!"

"Yes."

A monk behind Fang Huan took off his robe, pulled out a long knife, called to the four people next to him, and led the wild hyena up.

The wild hyena is very ferocious, with a mouth full of fangs that can easily crush a human head.

Every time he arrived at a house, the wild hyena roared twice.

The first household, one money;

The second household, one money;

……

In a blink of an eye, ten households were taken in.

Fang Huan's expression became more relaxed and he said, "Fellow Daoist Lu wanted to stand up for them, but unfortunately their bones are already soft."

Lu Tong nodded and said: "It's almost the same. It will probably all soften after a while, but now there should still be a few hard bones."

"A tough mouth or a tough bone?"

He smiled and said no more, turning to look at the shed.

Under a shed, three young men lowered their heads, almost retracting their heads into their crotches.

In front of me, two wild hyenas bared their mouths full of fangs.

A middle-aged woman with a haggard look leaned over and handed over a penny.
