Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 347: Broken engagement
"The old man didn't know people well, so he took Tang Maocai into his sect. It ruined the reputation of the Barbarian Tiger Sect and cost countless lives."
"There are many tiger demons in Shou Mian Mountain, among which the tiger demons from the Huangfeng Mountain lineage raise half-demon tiger guards. Tang Maocai secretly colluded with the tiger demons to help them practice in exchange for the treasures of heaven and earth in the mountain."
"...the half-demon tiger guards all have human heads, the secondary tiger guards with complete tiger bodies, the standing tiger guards with human bodies and tiger claws, the long-haired guards with human bodies and human hands, and the golden whip guards with tails."
"In the past five years, with the help of Tang Maocai, the number of Tiger Guards has reached hundreds. The old and weak force is unable to check and balance..."
"This time the tiger demons are fighting for territory again. The tiger demons in the mountains have no energy left to distract themselves. This is a good opportunity to eradicate the problem. I sincerely ask fellow practitioners in Yunying City to help."
Lu Tong read the letter and put it aside.
Some of the monks keep tigers.
Among the tiger demons, there are also tigers that raise humans and half-demon.
It’s just that the half-demon raised in Huangfeng Mountain seems to be very good, far more powerful than the half-demon beggars, thieves, servants, and guys in Yunying City.
"How strong is the Half-Demon Tiger Guard?"
"Stronger than humans, smarter than monsters, and more powerful after practicing the secret method of Huangfeng Mountain. The Cihu Guard is very dangerous and kills the most people."
"What secret method?"
"There are many, such as the "Iron Biting Kung Fu" that breaks the muscles and bones, the "Fierce Tiger Kung Fu" that strengthens the vitality, and the black wind magic technique, which does not break the tiger's skin..."
Wang Xiang taught more than a dozen methods.
The more Lu Tong listened, the more cautious he became.
Inheritance is orderly.
Huangfeng Mountain has a profound foundation, comparable to that of a small sect, and cannot be provoked by Foundation Establishment monks, but the tiger monster's fight for territory is related to him.
Lu Tong put aside the troubles of the Barbarian Tiger Sect and asked, "Do you know about the tiger monsters fighting for territory?"
"I've heard some. They often fight. A small fight at ordinary times, but a big fight next year. All tiger monsters are dispatched, and Huangfeng Mountain raises half-demon tiger guards to fight for territory."
"How to fight?"
"Robbing the top of the mountain. Fighting over each other, whoever wins the mountain will get it."
Lu Tong nodded.
As I guessed, it is simple and straightforward to do it directly, and it is also in line with the habits of monsters.
"Do you want to kill me?"
"There are no rules. If you can't fight, you can escape. Some escape, and some die after being unable to escape. After each battle for territory, you can pick up dead monsters in the mountains. There are already many hunters preparing to enter the mountains next year."
"What else?"
"And..."
Wang Xiang thought for a while, shook his head and said: "No, it's just snatched here and there."
"Okay."
Lu Tong stood up and was about to go back. He took a step forward and then turned around and asked, "By the way, have you seen a jade-nosed tiger?"
"No, I've heard that the jade-nosed tiger lives in the mountains, and most monks don't dare to go in."
"Thank you."
The ninth floor of the wooden tower.
Madam Ninth and Fu Sushuang sat together, talking to each other in low voices, with smiles on their faces.
Lu Tong pushed the door open and entered the room.
The two immediately shut up, glanced at Lu Tong, looked at each other and then smiled.
Lu Tong noticed something unusual and asked, "What are you hiding from me?"
"It's okay."
Madam Ninth straightened her hair and asked, "Did you find out clearly?"
"Almost."
Lu Tong walked to a specially prepared high stool, sat down and said: "The realm of monsters cannot be judged by humans. There is actually a tiger monster in Shoumian Mountain who abducted female cultivators and specially raised half-demon. ”
"It's usually too late to hide in a place like that, so you'd better get in there yourself."
Mrs. Ninth sighed.
Fu Sushuang said: "The head of the Barbarian Tiger Sect used to be a monk in our Yunying City, and he was also an old acquaintance of my father. I went back and asked my father to write a letter, and my senior brother took it with me. There will be someone to help me when I go."
"It's a good relationship, I'll thank my sister first."
Lu Tong looked at the two of them and felt something strange in his heart.
Firstly, the Barbarian Tiger Sect is too busy taking care of itself, so there is no spare time to help others; secondly, Fu Sushuang is already engaged, why are they still hanging around all day long?
……
It was a warm winter. There was not a single snowfall throughout the whole winter. Instead, it was extremely warm, like a not too hot summer.
Winter is almost over.
Lu Tong is ready to return to the sect. He first replaces Meng Dahe's **** ghost with a great merit, and then takes Dahan to Mianshan.
Inside the small building in the center of the lake.
Mrs. Ninth asked: "When will you leave?"
"In a few days, I will spend the New Year with you."
Lu Tong was carrying a brand new jade pipe, and the pot holding the tobacco leaves looked like a green walnut.
Madam Ninth smiled and said, "You have a conscience."
Lu Tong frowned slightly, looking worried. He exhaled thick smoke and asked, "A restaurant has started to be built over at Si'er. The shopkeeper hasn't been found yet. Do you really plan to let Fu Sushuang go there?"
"No way?"
"Okay, okay. It's just that I borrowed 1.5 million taels from my ancestors this time. If it doesn't work, I won't be able to turn around in ten years. We have to make sure that she doesn't have any other small ideas and does her best to run the restaurant. ."
"It's hard."
Mrs. Ninth shook her head, picked up the pipe, took a drag, and slowly exhaled: "Fu Sushuang has been learning to do business since she was a child, and she has many thoughts. It is inevitable that you will have selfish motives when you marry, and you must consider yourself and others first. Then think about your own home, and finally it’s the restaurant’s turn.”
Lu Tong’s frown deepened.
After Dian Si'er left, the gold foil on his face was just stuck on randomly. When he frowned, the gold foil was immediately squeezed out and hung on his face.
"Haha..."
Mrs. Ninth glanced at ~IndoMTL.com~ and burst out laughing.
Lu Tong stretched out his hand and wiped it a few times, peeled off all the gold foil, and said, "Stop being so pretentious, how did you arrange it?"
Mrs. Ninth laughed for a while and then said: "Fu Sushuang's engagement has been broken off, and we are discussing how much gift money to refund."
"The engagement was annulled?"
"Yes, Xiatian City took the initiative to mention it."
Lu Tong knocked on his pipe, emptied the pot, and picked up a handful of tobacco leaves.
"Did you arrange it?"
"I can't do such a thing, it was Fu Sushuang's idea. It was originally agreed that she would be the shopkeeper, but then she set her sights on the bride price, which was 50,000 taels in cash and more than 30,000 in total for the others. Two, no matter what, we must get engaged first."
He stopped moving his hands, glared, and said, "Is this all just for the tens of thousands of taels of gift?"
"That's enough. Fu Sushuang has saved more than 30,000 taels after so many years."
Lu Tong shook his head.
Fill the pot, raise a flame, light the tobacco leaves, and then pour the remaining flame into the fire jacket.
"What hole did Fu Sushuang dig for others?"
"Simple, she invited Baili Youzhen to Fu's house, and even let her husband's family bump into her. They are serious people in Xiatian City. They care about reputation the most, and they will break off the engagement no matter what."
Baili Youzhen, the sister of the head of the Baili family, has a bohemian style, a bit like Xiaoxian's demeanor.
Lu Tong picked up his pipe, took a long drag, shook his head and said, "Having her as the shopkeeper, I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse."
Ma Lankui and Xia Tiancheng’s husband’s family all ended badly if they got caught by Fu Sushuang.
"What are you worrying about? It's Fu Sushuang who should be afraid. Hers are all petty calculations, yours is the big deal. When is Xie Shang going to kill him?"
"Wait a moment, Xiong Zhen Gong will definitely come to me when he is ready to break through, and I will sell Xie Shang at a good price."
