Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 43: Gold
He Cun ignored it.
When no more blood beetles crawled out, a gap opened in the blood ball in mid-air, and a few drops of blood dripped out.
Many blood beetles rolled into a ball, fighting for blood.
In just a few breaths, all the blood beetles were lying on the ground motionless.
The bright red carapace on its back quickly turned black and rotted.
Lu Tong and Song Yanbai looked at each other.
Song Yanbai stood up and asked: "Senior Brother He, there are so many blood beetles below Tieyi Temple, is our mission completed?"
He Cun nodded, then frowned and said: "Weird!"
Lu Tong's heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but feel worried.
Did He Cun see anything unusual?
Song Yanbai was also worried.
Towards the end of the year, he had no chance to try again.
If this mission fails, the status as a peripheral disciple that was finally obtained will be gone in the next year.
"Senior Brother He, what's wrong?"
He Cun glanced at Song Yanbai, shook his head and said, "It's okay. Logically speaking, there should be more larvae than adults, but most of them here are adults."
Lu Tong lowered his head and tried his best to stay calm.
The adults have stronger hearing and stronger mobility, so they can hear Lutong's lure and migrate all the way.
The few larvae here are probably the offspring that have been in the cave before and have recently reproduced.
Song Yanbai looked worried and scared, and said cautiously: "What about my assessment task?"
He Cun smiled and said: "It's passed! There are so many adult insects, at least dozens of lives. If not here, where else could it be?"
A bright smile spread across Song Yanbai's face.
Lu Tong couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
If this task is not completed, it will be submitted layer by layer and finally assigned to the disciples of Yiyi Sect.
I’m afraid it’s inevitable to take a trip to Manzhong Mountain.
Fortunately, that’s it!
He Cun sacrificed a flying cloud and flew Song Yanbai and Lu Tong out of the cave together.
Flying into the air outside the mountain, he waved his hand and fired a burst of magic power.
The blood cells dispersed into countless tiny blood mist, and then a strong wind blew up, and the blood mist dispersed in all directions instantly.
"Let's go back to the city."
Feiyun flew across the sky and flew towards Yunying City.
……
Yunying City, in a drug store in the east of the city.
Lu Tong's body was covered with bandages, his legs were re-bonded and medicine was applied, and he slumped down on a four-legged and eight-clawed chair.
The four-legged and eight-claw chair looks like a recliner.
The following are the "eight-clawed legs", a magical weapon refined by four weapon refiners, which can be controlled by magic power to walk forward, backward, left and right.
Song Yanbai ran in quickly with beaming eyebrows and said with a smile: "Brother Lu, guess what mission reward I got?"
Lu Tong glanced at him and said casually: "What is the quota for Yiyi Sect to recruit disciples?"
Song Yan and Bai Qian laughed twice and said, "Brother Lu is joking."
He sat next to him and moved the fruits and snacks on the table. After taking a deep breath, he reached out and brushed it from the table.
There are two more long swords on the table.
Lu Tong immediately sat up from the four-legged and eight-clawed chair and leaned out to observe carefully.
These are...the other two of those three swords.
"Where did you get it?"
Song Yanbai smiled proudly, picked a grape, put it into his mouth, and said slowly: "Choose it from the trophies handed over by Senior Brother He."
He took out another bag and threw it on the table.
Lu Tong subconsciously reached out to untie the bag, but gave up as soon as he stretched out his hand.
Each finger on both hands was wrapped in layers and filled with ointment.
Song Yanbai swallowed the grapes, opened the bag and spread it on the table.
Ten pearls.
Each one is as big as the belly of a thumb, all white, without any flaws.
Lu Tong went over to take a look and asked tentatively: "Water snail heart?"
Song Yanbai nodded with a smile and picked another grape.
The water snail heart, like the camel eye, is also a treasure that contains spiritual energy.
After seeing Camel Eyes, Lu Tong specially ordered a book introducing various genius treasures.
The water snail heart, fifteen taels of silver each.
Camel eyes, three hundred taels of silver each.
This is just the reference price given in the book.
In actual circulation, because it is very rare, the price has increased.
Lu Tong looked at Song Yanbai and asked, "How to divide it?"
After the assessment task was completed, Song Yanbai seemed to be a new person.
He put away the four water snail hearts very boldly and said with a smile: "Use this water snail heart to top up the ten taels of silver I promised you before."
Lu Tong smiled, stretched out his right hand, placed the storage bracelet on the heart of the water snail, and put it into the magical artifact.
Song Yanbai picked up a sword and observed it repeatedly.
"Now you can tell me, what secrets are there in these swords?"
Lu Tong nodded and said seriously: "Don't worry, I won't let you down! Compared with the things in the sword, the water snail heart is nothing!"
Hundreds of taels of gold!
Just thinking about it made Lu Tong's heart beat faster.
Song Yanbai felt Lu Tong's excitement, and the smile on his face that had never gone away became even brighter.
Lu Tong swallowed and said, "Pull out the sword."
Song Yanbai drew his sword directly.
"Put the sword on the ground."
"The left eye of the copper beast on the scabbard is alive, press it down."
"Turn the scabbard upside down, upside down!"
Every time Lu Tong finished speaking, Song Yanbai did not hesitate at all.
The scabbard is turned upside down, facing the ground.
After a few breaths, there was no movement.
The smile on Lu Tong's face slowly solidified.
That's not right.
That’s how the shopkeeper poured out the storage sleeve.
"Try another one."
Song Yanbai immediately changed his sword.
After trying it, still nothing.
He patted the scabbard repeatedly and put his eyes to the mouth of the scabbard, trying to see clearly.
Lu Tong let out a long sigh, slumped down on the four-legged and eight-clawed chair again, and said, "Stop looking for it, it has been taken away."
Song Yanbai frowned and asked, "What's in it?"
"A storage sleeve with hundreds of taels of gold in it."
Lu Tong suddenly realized something was wrong.
Storage sleeves cannot be placed into storage magic weapons.
When He Cun returned to Yunying City, he did not have a sword on his back.
The sleeve pouch inside the scabbard has long been taken away by the old demon in iron clothes.
The old demon in iron clothes is dead, so gold...
Lu Tong shook his head.
If you are not strong enough, even if you fight to the death, you can only eat scraps.
Song Yanbai was still holding the scabbard.
Hundreds of taels of gold!
He will never give up until he hits the south wall himself.
Pick up the long sword, remove the scabbard, remove the hilt...
After a while, Song Yanbai faced a pile of dismantled sword strips, wooden strips, and copper pieces, and said helplessly: "Who took the gold?"
"Who else could it be besides that person?"
……
Night.
Liangyao Tea Tavern, backyard.
Lu Tong was lying on a four-legged and eight-clawed chair with a heating stove beside him.
Da Han, Er Hu, and Niu Da Zi were all standing by.
After Lu Tong finished talking about his experience of going out ~IndoMTL.com~ he opened his mouth and said: "Ah~"
Dahan was still sitting on the ground innocently.
Erhu immediately picked up the tea jelly soup on the stove and brought it to Lu Tong's mouth.
Tea jelly soup is different from ordinary tea.
It is a semi-solidified gel.
It's dark and doesn't look good, but it's full of blood inside.
Lu Tong smacked his lips twice after finishing the drink, and Erhu picked up another cup of tea and brought it to his mouth.
"How's it going? What do you think after listening to it?"
Dahan’s white and thick pig head has a few wrinkles on it, and he looks like he’s thinking very seriously.
Erhu looked at Dahan.
"Dahan, tell me."
"Boss." Dahan raised his head and said, "Master is asleep, it's time."
"Huh?"
Erhu explained for Dahan: "Boss, Dahan is learning the exercises recently and goes to bed early and gets up early every day."
"Okay, okay, let's go to bed!"
Lu Tong was rarely interested and wanted to teach them some experience in going out.
But I am stupid and need to learn. I want to sleep.
He is smart and doesn’t need to learn, but he is serious.
The interest that was not much in the first place suddenly dissipated completely.
"Oh."
Dahan stood up directly and walked towards the room where Lu Tong slept.
Erhu said: "Boss, I will take you into the house."
"Go aside!"
Lu Tong poured mana into the four-legged and eight-clawed chair and walked upstairs.
After taking a few steps, he suddenly felt that he had forgotten something.
Looking back, I couldn't help but laugh.
Niu Xiaozi was still lying down, watching them leave with his big watery eyes.
"Erhu, take the calf to your house! It's so cold, don't freeze."
