Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 18: The Big Bad
It’s lively and bustling.
Yunying City is even more lively than before.
Lu Tong was leaning on crutches and was surrounded by a group of people as soon as he entered the city gate with Dian Si'er and Er Hu.
"You two, the Zhang Mansion is recruiting half-demon guards. The monthly salary starts at 2 taels of silver. If you do a good job, you can get 4 taels! How about it? Are you interested?"
"Shixiang Restaurant is hiring handymen. They will take care of food and housing. They will have meat every day and a jug of wine every half month!"
Lu Tong pushed aside these people who were blocking his way and returned to his teahouse.
Liangyao Tea Tavern.
After being apart for more than ten days, Lu Tong was inexplicably touched when he saw this sign again.
The tea shop is not open.
A few childish characters were written on the door panel outside: Big bad guy with hoofs, he doesn’t keep his words.
Lu Tong squatted in front of the words, frowning.
Hooves?
In the memory left by Hoof, he has not offended any living person.
And these words are like "love words" spoken by a young woman, but Hoo Zi didn't have a good wife during his lifetime.
Lu Tong suppressed the doubts in his heart, opened the door and walked into the tea tavern.
The smell of alcohol hit me.
"Dahan!"
No response.
Lu Tong frowned and searched around, and finally found Dahan in the room where the wine tanks were stored.
Dahan lay on the ground and slept soundly, surrounded by empty wine jars.
"Dahan?"
Lu Tong poked him a few times with his crutch.
The crutch sunk deeply into Dahan’s fat flesh, but Dahan still had no reaction.
Lu Tong sighed and said: "Si'er, go and tell your mother that you are safe, and come back to make a pot of sobering tea."
Si'er nodded and walked directly to the waiter.
More than half an hour later.
Lu Tong was collecting stones in the backyard, thinking about hiring workers to build a few rooms, when a high-pitched howl sounded in front of him, and then he saw Dahan rushing into the backyard.
Dahan ran over, hugged Lu Tong, put the pig's head on Lu Tong's head and cried loudly.
Big tears flowed down Dahan's pig face, fell on Lu Tong's head, and then flowed down his temples.
Lu Tong's face darkened, he pushed Dahan away and loudly said, "Why are you howling? You started howling in mourning as soon as I came back."
Dahan sat down on the ground, stared blankly at Lu Tong, and said with a silly smile: "Boss, they all said you are dead."
"Who is it?"
"Blacksmith, Aunt Dian, Wang Wu, Zhaozi..."
Lu Tong has not come back for a long time, and many neighbors think he is dead.
If Dahan hadn't been stupid and didn't understand many things, he would have even built a funeral shed.
Lu Tong shook his head, pulled Dahan up and said, "Okay, do you still remember the bricklayers and carpenters who built the tea house last time? Go and invite them to build a few rooms in the backyard."
"Oh."
People with simple minds cry quickly and laugh quickly.
Seeing Lu Tong in person, he quickly put the previous things behind him, patted his **** and went out.
……
The four sons and two tigers of Dian were settled.
Lu Tong walked into the private room on the second floor and took out all the remaining money on his body to count.
Twelve small silver ingots, six pieces;
One tael of small silver nuggets, thirteen pieces;
A handful of broken silver and several hundred copper plates.
Lu Tong got all the property of hooves and bird feathers.
Every time the two half-demon harmed someone, they would equally share the blood beetle and the silver they got from the scam, and their net worth was around five hundred taels.
Niao Fei spent most of his property on Camel Eyes,
Lu Tong inquired that a camel eye is worth more than three hundred taels, but if you don’t have connections, you have to pay more to buy it.
So only fifty-six taels of silver were left.
As for Hoo Zi, most of his property was spent on various magical weapons, leaving him with more than a hundred taels of silver.
It cost dozens of taels of silver to rebuild the tea tavern and Qianxue Mountain.
Now, Lu Tong only has more than seventy taels of silver left.
Lu Tong made some calculations, took the money and headed to Liu Blacksmith's house.
Blacksmith shop.
Blacksmith Liu's son was squatting next to the stove, burning vermicelli and eating it. When he saw him, he immediately stood up and shouted: "Big liar! Big bad guy!"
After yelling, he turned around and ran towards home.
Lu Tong felt something sounded familiar, and immediately recalled it after thinking about it.
The words "Big Bad" are written on the door of the tea shop, and the big liar also corresponds to the word "big bad".
It turns out it was this little **** who wrote it.
"Come back!"
After Lu Tong shouted, Liu Caishun ran faster and disappeared into the backyard in a few steps.
"Xiao Liuzi, you don't want the Lightning Thunder Beast anymore?"
"Yes!"
Liu Caishun rushed back immediately.
Lu Tong took out a piece of silver, rubbed it with his fingers and asked, "Cai Shun, did you write the words on the door panel of my uncle's shop?"
Liu Caishun didn't dare to raise his head and lowered his head to keep glancing at the silver.
Lu Tong touched his head and said with a smile: "You are a good boy who knows your mistakes and can correct them. Go and wipe the door panel dry. When you come back, tell me where to buy the Lightning Thunder Beast."
"A word is settled."
Liu Caishun immediately ran towards the tea tavern.
"Wait, where is your father?"
"I'm in the room with my mother."
Lu Tong was stunned for a moment, looked up at the sky, and thought to himself: It's not dark yet.
Not long after, Blacksmith Liu came out of the backyard feeling refreshed.
When he saw Lu Tong, his eyes widened, he walked to the door with a big smile and said, "I knew you wouldn't die!"
Lu Tong smiled and said: "Thanks to your iron arm, otherwise I would have died."
After speaking, he took out several magic weapons.
Throwing axe, double-headed giant axe, nine-section steel whip.
"See how much these magic weapons can be sold for, first to pay for your iron arm."
Lu Tong still has money.
But he can't reveal the money now. At least as the owner of a teahouse, he shouldn't take out dozens of taels of silver at once.
In addition, after several fierce battles in Qianxue Mountain.
Lu Tong realized that Hoof's previous method of using a variety of magic weapons to make up for his congenital defects was wrong.
You can still get by with a small fight.
When encountering real difficulties, ten shortcomings are worse than one long one.
He has made up his mind to learn a method that can save his life in the future.
Tiejiang Liu briefly looked at the magic weapon and said: "You bought these two pieces from me. If you had taken them before the fog started~IndoMTL.com~ you could still sell them for some money. Now that the fog has receded, the price has dropped. A lot."
"It's okay, it's almost enough. If it's not enough, I'll make up for you."
“It’s not that expensive, it’s just disassembled parts.”
Blacksmith Liu took the flying ax and the giant ax to the side and said, "These two pieces are enough. If you want to sell this nine-section whip, I will take thirty taels of silver."
"OK."
Thirty taels of silver, discounted by 40%.
Lu Tong understood that the price was a bit low.
But Blacksmith Liu's two iron arms saved his life, and he was willing to repay the favor.
The two of them finished their transaction.
Liu Caishun rushed over panting, raised his right hand in front of Lu Tong, raised his chin and said: "Give me the money, I'll clean it all!"
Tiejiang Liu didn't understand what was going on and asked: "What money?"
"It's okay." Lu Tong took out a tael of silver and said with a smile, "Your son wrote curse words on my door, I asked him to clean it up."
"Asshole!"
Blacksmith Liu cursed loudly.
Stretched out his arms and pulled Liu Caishun out of the felt, slipped him into the blacksmith shop, took off his pants and raised his hand to give him a slap.
"Bah!"
Crisp and loud.
Liu Caishun burst into tears immediately.
"Don't cry! You kid is so rebellious that you still dare to curse! I sent you to learn to read to teach you to curse?"
Tiejiang Liu cursed and raised his hand to slap him a second time.
But looking at his son's red buttocks, he hesitated.
Lu Tong persuaded: "Old Liu, forget it, the child is not sensible. Hit him twice and forget it."
"Get down!"
"I apologize to Uncle Lu!"
Lu Tong persuaded him a few more times, turned around and left with satisfaction.
