Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 14: Send money

"Leader, the half-demon is here."

Xiong Baishan opened his eyes, woke up and asked, "What did you pick up?"

Lu Tong looked at the bear demon in front of him and kept making calculations in his mind.

He originally wanted to give away five taels of silver directly as the protection money left behind.

The low-income coolies in Yunying City only earn three or four taels per month, and five taels is a lot of money.

But Xiong Baishan was tall and tall, sitting on the ground a full head taller than the other bear monsters.

Fifty taels of silver seems not safe enough.

Lu Tong thought for a while, took out ten taels of silver, held it in his hands and said, "Chief, I picked up ten taels of silver at the foot of the mountain. I guess the leader lost it."

"Fart!"

Lu Tong's heart skipped a beat.

It’s over, I won’t accept it.

The gift is too little.

When Lu Tong gritted his teeth and was about to take out his capital, Xiong Baishan continued: "I don't even have a copper! These ten taels of silver are not...what? Bring me my silver!"

Waiting for the "little" black bear next to him to hand over the silver.

Xiong Baishan directly stretched out his huge palm, whipped up a gust of demonic wind and grabbed the silver in his palm.

"Where did you pick it up? Do you still have it? Hand it over quickly!"

Lu Tong relaxed, with a wry smile on his face: "Chief, I only found this piece. But I have learned a trick to find silver, and I can definitely still find it."

"There is such a magic?" Xiong Baishan sat up and said loudly: "Hand it over!"

The big, fluffy black bear instantly turned into a grinning blind bear.

Lu Tong’s expression did not change at all.

Before coming up, he had thought that the bear demon might fall out with him. Although he guessed that the bear demon was worried about the storage sleeve, it didn't make any difference.

"Leader, my late wife once worked for the Immortal of Yiyi Sect. She asked for this secret from the Immortal. Without the permission of the Immortal, I dare not spread it."

The Yiyi Sect once produced an immortal, and his disciples were respectfully called the Immortal Chief.

Lu Tong borrowed from Ku Meiqin’s experience to raise the banner of Yiyi Zong.

Without Yiyi Zong, there would be no Yunying City.

In Yunying City and the surrounding mountains, even the dogs of Yiyi Sect must be looked at with high regard.

Xiong Baishan has returned to his former honest appearance, and the beard as hard as a steel needle around his mouth has softened again, but his round eyes are still flickering.

"Do you know the Immortal Master of Yiyi Zong?"

Lu Tong smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I was lucky enough to meet my late wife twice when she was still alive."

Xiong Baishan stared at Lu Tong for a while, then pulled out a bunch of black hair from his body, tied it into a strand and said, "Look for it on the mountain. If you find it, bring it to you immediately. If anyone stops you, just take out this bunch of hair."

Lu Tong took the black hair and said with a smile: "Qianxue Mountain is a vast area, too many to mention. I found at least five taels of silver for the leader in three days."

Protection money is not a one-and-done deal.

If you want to stay at ease in the mountains, you must hand over some silver from time to time.

Before, Xiong Baishan was too eager to take ten taels of silver, which made Lu Tong realize that the monsters in Qianxue Mountain were poorer than he thought.

So the ten taels of silver were reduced to five taels.

Xiong Baishan was overjoyed when he heard the guarantee, and directly ordered: "Okay! Da Guqiang, you protect him these days and don't delay him in finding money!"

"Thank you, leader."

……

Five days later.

Outside the gap where the corpse was "buried" at the foot of the mountain.

Lu Tong walked into a thick bush of thorns, wrapped his index finger and thumb with magic power, then pinched his **** and began to rub and collide rhythmically.

Soon, the soil at his feet was pushed open, and a bug as big as a soybean crawled out.

It looks like a semi-spherical ball, with pincers half the size of its body on its head.

The whole body is pure red, from the pincers at the front to the tip of the carapace at the end, everything is red and shiny, like a ruby.

He had seen it many times in Hoof's memory.

But seeing it for the first time with my own eyes, I still felt a little strange that such a clean little thing could be born from dirty blood and rotten flesh.

After a while, blood beetles of different sizes also crawled under the gravel and on the thorns.

The big one is as big as a little finger, and the small one is as big as a mung bean.

Lu Tong continued to rub with his left hand, and quickly put all the blood beetles into a black cloth bag with his right hand.

One, two...eight...thirty...one hundred...

In the end, more than 700 blood beetles were collected. Unfortunately, the blood beetles behind were getting smaller and smaller.

Among them, there are only about ten as big as a little finger, about a hundred as big as mung beans, and the rest are only as big as millet.

The number far exceeded Lu Tong's expectation, but none of them was fully mature.

Full-grown blood beetles are as big as a cow's eye.

Hoofs and Bird Feathers have killed eighteen people over the years and only produced sixty-two fully mature blood beetles.

Lu Tong threw the pile of "red millet" back into the gap, wrapped the black cloth bag with a layer of waterproof kraft paper, and put it in his arms.

Come out of the thorn bush.

Lu Tong returns to the cave where he recently hid.

At the entrance of the cave, the black bear Da Guqiang is sleeping in.

Lu Tong walked into the depths of the cave and opened a white spider silk curtain. Dian Si'er was boiling water.

"Si'er, go out and guard."

"Bah bang bang bang."

Lu Tong sat by the fire.

Hold the black cloth bag in your arms and carefully take out a large blood beetle.

The carapace of the blood beetle looks very hard, but is actually very soft to the touch, like soft tofu.

Pinch the head and squeeze out the internal organs.

Peel off the carapace, pincers, legs and other carapace and throw them into boiling water.

The blood beetle's carapace is an organ that stores the devoured mana and blood.

And the belly is the organ that breeds larvae. If it is not treated cleanly, the consequences will be worse than death.

It took nearly a stick of incense to cook.

After Lu Tong fished out the carapace and washed both sides, he took out a knife and cut open the palm of his left hand.

Dark red blood seeped out and gathered in a pile in the palm of his hand.

Put the red carapace into the blood. The carapace will quickly melt and mix with the blood.

The blood that originally flowed slowly turned into semi-gelatinous blood jelly.

Lu Tong closed his eyes and entered the world of souls. Instead of running the "Six Qi Methods of Serving Spirits", he started to use the unknown evil method.

A mixed mana spread along his arms, his left shoulder, chest, right shoulder, etc., and quickly enveloped most of his body.

As the evil magic moves, the magic power wrapping the body gradually appears with swirling patterns.

The center of the vortex is the Dantian.

The chaotic mana and demonic power that the blood beetle devoured from various demonic beasts and half-demones all penetrated into the Dantian and disappeared.

All refined.

Lu Tong opened his eyes and directed his magic power into his palms.

Bai Mengmeng's mana accumulated together, and the height slowly increased from half an inch high to more than one inch, and finally stopped increasing after it exceeded two and a half inches.

Since getting the "camel eyes", he has been practicing with spirit beads every day.

After practicing for more than half a month, my magic power has only increased by less than half an inch.

This is the first time I practice evil methods. It takes only a cup of tea, but I have directly broken through to the second level of Qi training.

The evil method is really fast.

And there were no further consequences. The only unusual thing was that there was a lump of congestion remaining in the palm of his left hand.

According to Hoof's memory, this congestion will dissipate on its own within three to five days.

After Lu Tong refined the blood beetle, he did not slack off at all, and took out the camel eyes to continue practicing.

After an unknown amount of time, Dian Si'er's "hissing" sound came from outside.

Lu Tong put away his skills and went out.

Dian Sier directly took his hand and walked outside.

It was gray outside the cave, and it looked thicker than the last time the fog monster came.

And from time to time a string of bubbles appeared in the fog ~IndoMTL.com~ like boiling water rolling.

It's time to go up the mountain and hide.

Lu Tong woke up Da Guqiang who was being lazy, threw him two taels of silver and said, "Let's go up the mountain."

In the past few days, another ten taels of silver have come in one after another.

Twenty taels of silver before and after is not a small amount even if it is placed in Yunying City.

Da Guqiang climbed up and hummed: "I found it again! I'll give you the money, and you can keep looking."

"Let's go up together and search the bottom of the mountain several times. Let's go look for it at the top."

Lu Tong called Dian Si'er, put a feather into Dian Si'er's hand, and asked her to follow him up the mountain pretendingly.

……

The mountain road is rugged, and all kinds of half-demon are huddled together.

Several batches of half-demon have been sent in the past few days. Based on the stories of the surviving half-demon, they have already understood their situation in advance.

Some tried to force their way up the mountain, but were **** by the bear demon and hung in a tree.

Some wanted to take a detour through the gray fog to escape, but as soon as they entered the gray fog, they heard screams.

In the desperate atmosphere, a half-demon with feathers on its head sang in a hoarse voice:

"The sky is gray, the ground is gray, I am helpless and have no parents to rely on."

"My eyes are confused and my heart is panicking. Where is the way to survive?"

"..."

Dian Si'er was very touched by what he heard, and his six eyes became wet.

She has a mother, a monk father whose identity is unknown, and three spider demon stepfathers. In total, there are three more than ordinary people, but they are no different from one.

Fortunately, Dian Si'er was not completely helpless and helpless.

She looked at the burly figure next to her, and quietly stretched out her hand to hold the corner of Lu Tong's clothes.

Lu Tong was also very touched.

This hellish place doesn’t take life for granted.

That’s **** up.
