Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 349: Barbarian Tiger Sect
Dongqiao City is more like a town than a city.
There are no city walls and no city guards. The population is just over 10,000, and the only golden elixir realm monk in the city is Liu Jiao, the head of the Wild Tiger Sect.
A land of endless mountains, rich mountains and bad waters.
Lu Tong was more than cautious, but not too fearful.
"Where is the Barbarian Tiger Sect?"
The leading half-demon raised his head and looked back and forth at Lu Tong and Dahan. After a few breaths, he turned back and pointed: "There, can I take you there?"
Among the large number of low-rise houses, there are three stone towers that look very abrupt, six feet, seven feet, and nine feet high respectively.
Lu Tong glanced at it and nodded: "Okay."
The leading half-demon winked, turned around and led the way.
Lu Tong and Dahan followed closely behind.
The others crowded around, as if they were afraid that the two of them would escape.
The streets in the city are very narrow, only five or six people wide, and there are some street stalls on the corners. A rag was placed directly on the ground, with some grass, roots, flowers, and stones without containers placed on it, which looked very inconspicuous.
Passing by several street stalls.
A half-demon on the left suddenly stopped, walked to a street stall, picked up a piece of muddy tree root, without asking the price, dropped a few coins and turned around to leave.
“You still have bad eyes and your teeth are as white as purple.”
"Hey."
Lu Tong turned around and looked.
The tree roots are half a foot long, thick at the top and thin at the bottom. After the mud was rubbed off by the half-demon, a dark purple skin was revealed.
"Is this the companion spirit Ziya?"
"Yes, you want to buy it?"
"Don't buy it."
Lu Tong shook his head and continued: "It's eight coppers per pound outside, but here it's only five coppers per pound. It's really cheap."
"Hey, you can't buy it at this price."
The half-demon on the left smiled and put away his purple teeth.
There is a very spacious open space in front of the stone tower. The ground is paved with stone slabs and divided into squares with white low pillars.
Lu Tong looked around a few times and asked, "Where is this place?"
"Trading floor."
"Why is there no one in such a big trading place, but there are street stalls outside?"
"Hey."
The half-demon on the left did not explain any more.
Lu Tong already had a guess in his mind.
There are many herbs, monsters, and treasures in the mountains. The stalls are all placed together. With so many things, there is no need to worry about attracting small traveling merchants or large chambers of commerce.
Everyone can make money.
But if someone takes and robs for nothing, those who can’t make money will naturally not come back.
There is no one here except the Barbarian Tiger Sect. It seems that no one else is making money except them.
Lu Tong walked to the middle of the trading floor.
The leader of the half-demon suddenly let out a tiger roar, flew to the stone tower with a black wind, and shouted loudly: "Brother Tang! The helper I'm looking for is here!"
The corners of Lu Tong's eyes jumped a few times.
Conspiracy is based on secrets.
Liu Jiao, a dignified golden elixir monk, couldn't even hide the fact that he was looking for help. He was really harming himself and others.
Thankfully he wasn't here to help.
Several half-demon quickly rushed out and surrounded the trading venue.
A bearded monk wearing a colorful robe flew out from the top of the tower.
A huge tiger shadow followed on the left and right, with a human head and a tiger body. It was more than ten feet long, and its long hair spread down to cover its face.
"Who?"
"Capturing Qi Sect, Lu Tong."
The bearded monk fell in front and asked: "Disciples of Qi Capture Sect, what are you doing in Dongqiao City?"
"Go into the mountains to collect herbs and find a guide who is familiar with the mountain roads."
The bearded monk lowered his head, stared at the tiger claws for a few times, then raised his head and said: "Since we are both disciples of the sect, let's stay here for now, and I will help my fellow Taoist find it in two days."
"Thank you, what do you call fellow Taoist?"
"The surname is Tang and the given name is Maocai."
The two looked at each other for a moment.
Tang Mao turned around and walked towards the stone tower, saying: "Take them to Zhongyang Tower to stay."
Zhongyang Tower is nine feet high.
In a guest room on the second floor.
Lu Tong took out the tea set and the water-gathering instrument, and while boiling water, he said: "We have to meet Liu Jiao, the guide Tang Mao just sent, who knows where he will take us."
Next to him, Dahan had found a clean place to lie down.
He made tea and drank tea alone, and murmured: "How about we stay here and have someone deliver the letter to Fushan Mountain, and wait for the Polygonum cuspidatum to come out to pick us up."
The guide is hard to find.
In the past, in places such as Jieshui Lake and the desert, no matter how dangerous the place was, there was still territory for monks.
But monsters are rampant in Shoumian Mountain.
Spend a lot of money, fearing that the guide will have evil intentions and deliberately take you to dangerous places to steal money. Pay a small price, and worry that the guide will dislike you for being too little, so you will also deliberately take you to dangerous places to steal money.
Both and the right are worried.
When Lu Tong was worrying, Dahan was already snoring.
He shook his head, took down the tea cup and said: "We are here to help, not to ask for help. There is no reason for us to take risks."
"Boom!"
There was a knock on the door.
Lu Tong walked to the door and asked: "Who?"
"I, Liu Jiao, are you Lu Tong, a disciple of the Qi Capture Sect who came from Yunying City?"
He raised his eyebrows and immediately opened the door.
A thin monk stood outside the door.
Square face, high cheekbones, broad shoulders, long arms, and a thick frame, but he is very thin, almost skinny.
"I've met seniors."
The leader of a sect, no matter how miserable his situation is and his cultivation level is only one level higher, he can still be called a senior.
Liu Jiao nodded and said, "My disciples, the weather is really extraordinary."
"Senior is so complimentary."
The two sat down at the table.
Liu Jiao looked at it for a while, nodded and said: "Okay, okay! Have you thought it through, nephew?"
Lu Tong was confused.
It soon became clear that Liu Jiao thought he was here to kill Tang Maocai, so he quickly explained: "This junior is preparing to enter the mountain. I came here to trouble my senior to introduce a guide."
"this"
Liu Jiao looked very disappointed. After a moment, he sighed and said with a wry smile: "I made a mistake. Don't blame me, nephew."
"Don't dare."
Lu Tong boiled water and made tea again.
Liu Jiao sat motionless for a long time and said, "My nephew went into the mountain to help the tiger demon fight for the top of the mountain?"
"Yes. ~IndoMTL.com~ There is a senior fellow in the sect who is a Huiyin Black Tiger. He invited me to go into the mountains and take action."
"Return to the Black Tigers. They are quite powerful. However, I heard that they had a dispute with the Burning Mountain Tiger and the Flame Skull Tiger, and the killing was very dangerous. My nephew should be careful when the time comes."
Lu Tong poured a cup of tea and handed it over: "Thank you, senior, for your advice."
Liu Jiao nodded and took the tea cup.
"You have a night's rest first, and tomorrow I will find an old deer to take you into the mountains. He often walks around the mountains, so he can keep you safe."
"Thank you, senior."
Liu Jiao finished his tea, said goodbye and left.
Lu Tong looked at the tea cup, frowned, and said to himself: "Have you really met a kind-hearted senior?"
The next day.
In front of the stone tower, Lu Tong looked at a lame old deer in front of him and said, "Senior Liu asked you to come?"
The gray-spotted mountain deer is good at running on rugged rocks.
This old deer's antlers have fallen off, the gray spots on its fur have turned into black spots, and one-third of its left front hoof is missing.
"Yes, the sect master asked me to come and lead the way."
Lu Tong took out a letter and handed it over: "Send it to Fuhuoshan and give it to Huiyin Black Tiger."
"You're not going?"
He shook his head.
The old deer raised his short hoof, put the letter into the copper ring on the hoof, and said: "It is different from what the sect master ordered. I want to tell the sect master first."
"Yes."
The old deer turned and left.
"You shouldn't stay."
A voice sounded from behind.
Lu Tong turned around and saw Tang Maocai standing at the entrance of the stone tower.
"Why?"
Tang Maocai said: "Whether it's collecting medicine or helping the tiger demon seize the mountain, just leave. Why stay and cause yourself trouble."
Lu Tong frowned, and soon his brows relaxed again, his eyes brightened slightly, and he said: "Did I just happen to have a good time, what good things can happen to the Barbarian Tiger Sect?"
