Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 211: Suspicious Tomb
Inside the tea tavern.
Lu Tong and Xiao Jing sat facing each other.
Lu Tong was a little surprised.
Xiao Jing actually broke through to the foundation building realm.
"All six of you are back?"
"It's just me this time, they're still outside."
"Be careful, people from Dou Sect are still looking for you."
Since the establishment of the boundary, there has been no conflict between Doumen and Jilang. However, Doumen is still looking for the six Xiao Jings and the murderer who secretly killed them.
Lu Tong was also suspected.
Half a year ago, there were often suspicious monks in the tea tavern, sitting there all day long doing nothing.
Xiao Jing took out a small cloth bag and said: "Don't be afraid, even if the Dou Sect comes to the door, it will be fine. Thank you, the leader, for saving our lives. This is our little thought."
He took the cloth bag.
Unlock the sealing rope, and there is a small pile of golden gravel inside.
"Going to gold panning?"
Xiao Jing pursed his lips and said nothing.
Lu Tong glanced at it, threw the cloth bag back, and said: "I don't need it, take it back to my family, they are living a miserable life."
Six people, brother Xiao Jing, three brothers from the Hao family, and the only son of the Han family.
They escaped, but the family was still there.
The people in Doumen retaliated privately. I heard that they are still living in a shed, while the surrounding neighbors built houses half a year ago.
Xiao Jing gritted his teeth and said: "Qi Tou, can... can you ask Qi Tou to come forward and buy three sets of courtyards in the workshop and hand them over to the family. I can't trust other people."
He picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea, shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter where you move. The Dou sect is very powerful, so it's best to take your family away."
Xiao Jing lowered his head, remained silent for a long time, and said, "We are now bandits."
Sand bandits have a very bad reputation.
Once this news gets out, the family will be implicated, and in serious cases they may even be expelled from Xingshan Fort.
Dou Ye also served as a bandit, but his strength was different and his situation was naturally different.
Lu Tong said nothing and pushed the teacup over.
Sit for a while.
Xiao Jing drank three cups of tea and said: "Qitou, Da Hao and Han Qiu have practiced the magic of transforming demons and will come back after the new year. If Qitou has something to do in the future, you can ask them to do it."
"What are you doing back here?"
He asked casually.
In the past year, I have been asking around for information and have developed the habit of asking casually.
"The real Yuanying of Haiyuebao died, and a tomb of doubt was to be built nearby. Da Hao and Han Qiu came to inquire about the news."
"Suspect Tomb?"
"Well, the Hai family brothers and sisters spent a lot of money to build five false and one true tombs, a total of six large tombs, all of which sank into the quicksand."
"You want to rob a tomb?"
Sand and quicksand are a natural defense.
Many monks outside the desert specially refine a tomb magic weapon before their death, and then wrap their bodies and bury them in quicksand.
If someone buries it, someone will dig it up.
There are not a few people who make a living by robbing tombs. It is rumored that the owners of several small castles made their fortune by robbing tombs.
This was the first time Xiao Jing came into contact with this kind of business. He felt a little uncomfortable and said in a low voice: "Well, the leader said that whether it is true or not, it will last us a lifetime."
"The real person's methods are not something you can covet even if you die."
Xiao Jing left Sha Jin behind, wrapped his head and left.
Lu Tong sat alone at the table and returned to the room after drinking a pot of tea.
……
On New Year's Eve, the lights are brightly lit outside.
Lu Tong asked: "Si'er, you're not going?"
"Sir, I'm not familiar with the Baolun yet. I'm going to take a closer look at it."
"Okay, no need to come out. I closed the door when I went out."
He went upstairs, downstairs, and walked around in a circle.
Dahan was about to break through and got back into the hole to sleep. It was pitch black inside the cave, with faint airflow coming in and out.
Three girls stayed in the pool.
Boss Dian and others stay in the lair. The white-legged spider demon likes to be quiet by nature and often remains motionless throughout the day.
Lu Tong walked out of the teahouse, closed the door, and walked towards the inn next door.
Guanhe Inn has once again changed its appearance.
Fan Shun spent a lot of money and asked a refiner to refining the entire inn and smelting Baise gravel to fill the gaps.
The thick mahogany pillars full of cracks turned into Baise-carved dragon pillars.
Looks more dazzling.
In addition, handymen and waiters were hired to clean the inn and attract customers every day.
The handyman changed into bright clothes and greeted at the door: "Shopkeeper Lu, the shopkeeper is in the backyard, please come with me."
"Okay."
Go into the backyard.
At first glance, there is no sand in the field of vision.
There is a circle of painted curtains on all sides, on which mountains, rivers, cities, people, dragons and phoenixes are painted.
There is a copper pot standing in front of the curtain, with green branches and red flowers inserted in the pot.
The ground is covered with a layer of grass, and the mats and futons are placed directly on the grass.
As he looked around, he had the illusion of returning to Yunying City.
"Brother Lu, please sit down quickly."
Fan Shun was wearing an off-white gown and said with a smile.
Lu Tong went to sit down and looked at the center.
Not far away, Wu Nan was sitting cross-legged behind Chang Ji, with his eyes closed and a long sword placed across his knees.
Other guests arrived one by one.
Fan Shun invited everyone to sit down, and those who were familiar with each other began to chat together.
The small voices were mixed together, making it a bit noisy.
Fan Shun raised his hand to signal, and a band came out and began to play the flute and piano, gently suppressing the noise without disturbing others.
How long does a picture last?
Lu Tong, Mrs. Ying, and Bai Qingming were sitting together.
Lu Tongtong: "Master Bai, where is your precious apprentice? I spent thousands of taels of silver in the past two days!"
"Hahaha."
Bai Qingming stroked his short beard and said with a smile: "Unfortunately for you, the Shi family just gave out 10,000 taels of New Year money that day!"
Mrs. Ying was a little confused. She looked around and asked, "What's going on? We haven't seen each other for two days. What's going on?"
At the end of the year, gold diggers prepare to sell their alluvial gold that they have saved for a year.
Mrs. Ying is busy from morning to night every day, and she just had some free time tonight.
Lu Tong explained: "At the auction a few days ago, Man Boy and I bumped into each other."
"What treasure is worth ten thousand taels?"
"A divine soul magic weapon."
Lu Tong didn't hide it. This kind of thing couldn't be hidden.
"Shopkeeper Lu is really generous. It seems that business was very good last year."
He waved his hand and said: "No matter how good the business is, I am just a wine seller, not as big as Yingshao Lou's big business."
"What a big business, it just looks glamorous."
Mrs. Ying picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
Entrance.
Shi Man came in, accompanied by a young female cultivator.
When Bai Qingming saw it, he stood up immediately.
"You guys sit down first~IndoMTL.com~I'll come over."
Lu Tong was a little surprised and asked: "Who is it that Master Bai personally welcomes?"
Shi Man is a disciple.
Bai Qingming went there in person, obviously because of the female cultivator.
"People from the Hai family."
After Mrs. Ying finished speaking, she glanced at Lu Tong and said, "There will be something big happening after the new year."
After the year?
He immediately thought of what Xiao Jing said about Haiyuebao building a tomb of doubt in the future.
"What's the big deal?"
"It has nothing to do with Shopkeeper Lu, but if you are interested, it is a good opportunity to make money."
Lu Tong couldn't help but smile, picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.
"Mrs. Ying, stop playing riddles. You and Si'er have a close relationship. You should know that I am not a person who is unjust for profit. If you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly."
Mrs. Ying has a wide network of contacts.
The various forces in the fort, big and small, all have some degree of friendship.
In addition to collecting sand gold, he also makes some easy money by connecting and building bridges for various parties.
Mrs. Ying said: "The real person of the Hai family has left and is going to build a tomb of doubt."
“I’ve heard a little bit about this.”
"The Hai family is very generous. They only use Yunhen sand as thin as a hair to build the tomb. In the next year, at least tens of thousands of people will go to dig for sand."
"How big a tomb to build and such a big battle?"
"How can Zhenren Yuanying be the same as ordinary people? He was so majestic when he was alive, but he is no longer extraordinary anymore."
Lu Tong sighed a little.
It’s such a waste to spend so much effort and finally throw it under the sand.
"What does repairing my grave have to do with me?"
"Selling wine. The Hai family takes care of one meal every day, including wine and meat. The total amount of wine consumed by tens of thousands of people every day is not a small sum."
He looked at Mrs. Ying and said, "Is there a way?"
Mrs. Ying smiled and said nothing.
Lu Tong also smiled, poured two glasses of wine, and raised one to signal.
Mrs. Ying also picked up another cup.
