My second senior brother is very afraid of death

Chapter 8 Start Making Money (Cheat Money)

"……no……"

After thinking about it, Mo Jinyan remembered that when he was chatting with Chu Lang Chenxi today, he heard her talk about a rich man named Wang Yunteng at the foot of Wuyin Shenshan Mountain.

At the same time, I also heard that some people in several towns near the foot of Wuyinshen Mountain specially set up ghosts to deceive people to cheat money and tribute, and then they were discovered and severely beaten.

"Have it!"

Mo Jinyan smiled knowingly.

"Since Wang Yunteng's family is rich and there are monsters in the house, why don't I call myself a lay cultivator and pretend to subjugate demons, but actually make a fortune from him? They are all pretending to be people anyway.

It just so happens that I have intermediate three-legged cat kung fu, and ordinary charlatans are really no match for me. This plan is very good, this plan is very clever, I am really a money-swindler... no, a little genius who makes money. "

Mo Jinyan has made up his mind and decided to take the risk. After firing the porcelain tomorrow, he will go to meet the rich man Wang Yunteng for a while.

Early the next morning, Mo Jinyan fired a lot of porcelain in the morning, and after dinner, he was ready to leave the mountain gate and go down the mountain to the home of the rich man Wang Yunteng.

Just as he closed the gate of Xiaoyaomen, Mo Jinyan was about to lock it when he suddenly thought of a question.

"According to that ghost girl Chu Lang Chenxi, the people at the foot of the Wuyin Mountain all know that I am a poor ghost cultivating immortals, and I don't have any skills. If I rashly go to Dacai's house to cheat Wang Yunteng...to make money, I will definitely be caught by him." Driven out."

Mo Jinyan rubbed his chin thinking about this difficult question.

"A man depends on his clothes and a horse depends on his saddle. I need to pack myself up and find a gimmick. The style should be higher, so that ordinary people will be in awe and dare not look directly at it."

Mo Jinyan wanted to do it, and returned to the sect again, went to the room where his master and his old man used to live, rummaged through the relics for a long time, and found the purple gold Taoist robe he had dreamed of.

This purple-gold Taoist robe can only be worn by people at the head and teacher level, but Mo Jinyan put it on brazenly, and when he looked at the bronze mirror, he actually fit it quite well.

In front of the bronze mirror, there was a carefree young man with fluttering long hair, majestic and unbearable to look directly at, not to mention, he really had such an immortal demeanor of the founder of the mountain.

Mo Jinyan came to Xiaoyaomen Town Demon Hall again, where Xiaoyaozi, the founder of Xiaoyaomen, and the gods of successive generations were enshrined.

Lighting incense sticks as thick as three little fingers, Mo Jinyan knelt down respectfully and honestly, praying for his heart words.

"The founder of the mountain, the ancestors of the past generations, the unworthy disciple Mo Jinyan, in order to keep the Xiaoyaomen, had no choice but to go down the mountain to kill demons and keep the people in peace (cheat money).

The disciple is really helpless, if the past masters disagree, then please speak up in person, if you don't speak, the disciple will take it as agreeing, hehe. "

After Mo Jinyan finished speaking respectfully, he put three sticks of incense on the huge incense burner, then knelt on the ground and waited for the ancestors to speak.

"Anyway, you have been dead for many years, and the dead will naturally be speechless. Don't blame the disciple for stealing and cheating. The disciple is doing it for the good of Xiaoyaomen."

Mo Jinyan lowered his head and smirked at the corners of his mouth, proud of himself.

After a long time, Mo Jinyan knelt on his knees for a long time. Seeing that the founder of the mountain and the gods who were in charge of the previous generations did not speak or even respond at all, Mo Jinyan hurriedly got up.

"Thank you to the founder of the mountain and the masters of the past generations for perfecting the disciple, the disciple will go down the mountain to hunt down demons and eliminate demons (cheat money)."

After speaking, Mo Jinyan exited the Demon Suppression Hall.

"Bastard! How did our Xiaoyaomen come out with such a shameless thing?"

The tablet of founder Xiaoyaozi let out a sigh.

Mo Jinyan left Xiaoyaomen and went straight down the mountain to the home of the rich man Wang Yunteng.

Along the way, the mountains are beautiful and the scenery is beautiful. Wuyin Shenshan is really a good place for cultivating immortals. The aura is simple and full of pure energy. Mo Jinyan is in a good mood, but he is also very nervous. After all, this is his first time to slay demons. , The reason for protecting one side of the people (cheating money) goes down the mountain.

An hour later, Mo Jinyan was about to reach the foot of the mountain, further ahead was Wuyin Town, and to the left and right were other towns.

Mo Jinyan only knew from Chu Lang Chenxi's mouth that the rich man Wang Yunteng's house was near the foot of Wuyinshen Mountain, but he didn't know the exact location. Looking around, he encountered difficulties.

Coincidentally, a woodcutter was about to walk towards Mo Jinyan.

Mo Jinyan asked politely: "Where is the home of the rich man Wang Yunteng?"

"Oh, if you walk five miles to the northeast, you will see hundreds of acres of fertile land. That place is Master Wang Yunteng's house."

The woodcutter left after speaking.

"Thank you, thank you."

Mo Jinyan seized the time, walked through the forest and over the mountains, and finally arrived at the place the woodcutter said.

Hundreds of acres of fertile land in front of me are still at the foot of the Wuyin Mountain, but there are so many crops that there is no one and no one, which seems a bit desolate and weird.

Mo Jinyan walked along the crop field until he came to a big house. The plaque on the gate read: Prince's Mansion.

"That's right, I want to come here to be Wang Yunteng's house, I must pretend to be unpredictable for a while, and I can't show my timidity, otherwise it will be hard to make money (cheat)."

Boom boom boom!
Mo Jinyan tapped the copper ring on the gate three times, but no one responded.

Boom boom boom!
Mo Jinyan buckled the copper ring three more times, but still no one responded.

"It's an evil door. If you close the door so tightly in broad daylight, there won't be anyone there, right?"

Mo Jinyan didn't want to miss such a rich man like Wang Yunteng. He prayed in his heart that there would be someone with talent, so he leaned on the door and peeked inside through the crack in the door.

Through the crack of the door, I saw a gorgeously dressed couple in their 40s standing in front of the threshold of the lobby and staring at Mo Jinyan. At the same time, four men walked out from all sides, some old and some young, with serious expressions, grasping Mo Jinyan. Walking towards the gate with a stick.

Boom boom boom!
Mo Jinyan straightened his Taoist robe, held his head high, and buckled the copper ring three more times.

A person inside asked hesitantly, "Who... who is it!"

"Pindao is Mo Jinyan, the second disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect of Wuyin Shenshan, who is here to pay a visit to Master Wang Yunteng."

Mo Jinyan's speech has always been out of tune, but today he suddenly put on an air, which didn't fit him all of a sudden, and he almost laughed out loud.

"Master, he is from Xiaoyaomen of Wuyin Shenshan."

One of them did not reply to Mo Jinyan in a hurry, but responded to the couple first.

"Open the door and ask clearly. If anyone is here for dinner, let him go."

When Mo Jinyan heard this, he already guessed that Wang Yunteng should be a penny-pinching rooster.

click!
The gate of the palace opened from the inside, and Mo Jinyan was about to walk in, when the four men holding sticks stood in a row, preventing Mo Jinyan from going any further.

"Stinky monk, why are you looking for our master for no reason?"

The bossy attitude of the old man at the head made people very uncomfortable.

"Pindao recently looked around the universe in the mountains, scanning all directions, and suddenly he had a thought, and found that the place is full of evil spirits. There must be evil spirits. The heavens have the virtue of good life. Pindao came here to subdue the demons and protect the peace."

After Mo Jinyan finished speaking in a pretentious manner, he gave the four men a slap in the face.

"What? Are you here to catch a demon?"

The old man in the lead looked up and down at Mo Jinyan, who was young but wearing a purple-gold Taoist robe and carrying a wooden sword on his back.

"That's right. If Pindao's spiritual sense is wrong, if he feels wrong, then leave and disturb."

Mo Jinyan had a serious expression on his face, and his heart was full of laughter. In order to make the other party respect and look up to him, knowing that the other party's house was full of evil, he first tried to play hard to get, and turned around to leave.

"Is this the legendary pretending to be 13?"

Mo Jinyan covered his mouth and snickered the moment he turned around.

"Wait a minute, Daoist, let me pass the word to the master."

The leading old man hurriedly stopped Mo Jinyan who was about to leave.

Mo Jinyan quickly turned his head and said with disgust, "I'm called an immortal..."

The four men froze for a moment: "Oh, the immortal wait a moment."

The old man in the lead hurried to the entrance of the lobby and explained to the couple Mo Jinyan's intention of coming, and Mo Jinyan also confirmed that the rich man with a gorgeous dress and a bloated figure must be Wang Yunteng.

From time to time, the couple and the old man would rush towards the gate at the same time.

"Prince Daoist, there are indeed monsters in my house recently. If the head Taoist is willing to save me, it will be a disaster. Please come to the house and tell me."

Unexpectedly, Wang Yunteng's attitude changed 180 degrees, and his words were reserved and polite. Mo Jinyan thought that he must be pretending too much.

After a while, Mo Jinyan turned around slowly, holding his head high: "Amitabha, that fairy is taking the liberty to disturb you."

"Huh? Immortal?"

Wang Yunteng and his wife looked at each other suspiciously, then smiled bitterly, and walked towards the lobby facing Mo Jinyan.

After everyone was seated, the four men left the lobby.

"The Taoist priest really has great supernatural powers. He actually knew that there were monsters in my house from afar in the Wuyin Mountain. It seems that he has a lot of magic power."

While talking, Wang Yunteng poured tea for Mo Jinyan, who was sitting upright and pretending to be with half-opened eyes.

"Called Immortal..."

Mo Jinyan spoke lightly.

Mainly, Mo Jinyan was putting on airs, eyes half-opened, and didn't see the disgusted expression that flashed across the faces of Wang Yunteng and his wife.

"Immortal, are you sure? I have heard that there is a Xiaoyaomen in Wuyin Mountain. More than a hundred years ago, it was the most famous sect of cultivating immortals in the world, but now there seems to be no one there. Are you sure you came from Xiaoyaomen?" Is it?"

Wang Yunteng is a local rich man with a lot of money and a profiteer. Naturally, he must inquire about Mo Jinyan's background ability first, so as not to be deceived.

"Yes, Immortal, I came from Xiaoyao Sect of Wuyin Shenshan. Although our sect is ruined, this Immortal is the reincarnation of Xiaoyaozi, the founder of Xiaoyao Sect. He has supreme magical power and cannot be said to penetrate the heavens and the earth. , but at least he can follow his will, soar in the clouds and ride on the mist, and his cultivation has reached the realm of Nascent Soul."

Mo Jinyan still pretended to speak.

"That's fine, that's fine."

Wang Yunteng suddenly felt the corner of his clothes being pulled. When he looked back, his wife frowned and covered her mouth, whispering: "Xiaoyao Sect? Does this sect still exist?"

Wang Yunteng was grinning, but when he turned his head to look at his wife, he said in a low voice: "Listen to him, as long as he can eliminate that evil spirit, we don't care if he is a fairy or a bitch."

After Wang Yunteng appeased his wife, he asked Mo Jinyan: "May I ask when the immortal will use his magic power to catch monsters?"

"Wait for this immortal to figure it out and pick a good day."

Mo Jinyan closed his eyes tightly, chanted a spell that he didn't understand, pinched his fingers and counted for a long time.

"At nine o'clock tonight, I will go up to the altar, and I will definitely eliminate the evil spirits for you."

Mo Jinyan suddenly opened his eyes with a confident look on his face.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Satisfied, Wang Yunteng poured another cup of tea for Mo Jinyan.

Mo Jinyan felt that what should be said was almost said, and it was time for a showdown.

"Master Wang, it's the easiest way for this immortal to subdue demons and catch ghosts. It's just that every time this immortal uses great mana, it will consume essence and mana, and requires a lot of supplements. Catching monsters to protect the safety of one side, and to revive the mountain gate on the other hand, some money is needed..."

Mo Jinyan knew that Wang Yunteng was a smart person, so he stopped talking.

"Heh, another scammer, looks like the previous stinky Taoist priests..."

Wang Yunteng's wife gave Mo Jinyan a blank look, and Mo Jinyan pretended not to hear him guilty.

Wang Yunteng was not as reactive as his wife, but he squinted his eyes and stroked his goatee for a long time, thinking for a long time, then smiled slyly.

"Immortal, just tell me how much money you need to help my Wang family get rid of demons?"

Mo Jinyan did not expect that Wang Yunteng, who was thought to be an iron rooster before, would be so generous, so he hurriedly opened his mouth, waiting to bargain with Wang Yunteng.

"Two million taels..."

Mo Jinyan said tentatively, staring at Wang Yunteng's reaction out of the corner of his eye, but he fell back in fright when he saw Wang Yunteng's hearing, but fortunately his wife held him up in time.

"Sure enough, it's to cheat money."

Wang Yunteng's wife supported Wang Yunteng and whispered in his ear.

"Immortal, if you want one million taels, you can leave now! Even if you sell me, you won't have that much money."

Wang Yunteng remained polite. According to his usual temper, he coaxed Mo Jinyan to leave with cursing. Only his wife knew why he was so forbearing.

"Of course, 100 million taels is just a joke with you, so how about 20 taels?"

Mo Jinyan always pays attention to the changes in Wang Yunteng's expression, so that he can guess Wang Yunteng's psychological price.

"Ten taels?"

Wang Yunteng quickly counter-offered.

"15 million taels?"

Mo Jinyan reckoned that Wang Yunteng's psychological price hadn't been mentioned yet.

"1 million taels?"

Wang Yunteng also tested Mo Jinyan's bottom line

"10 taels, if one tael is missing, I will bid farewell to the immortal."

Mo Jinyan has long known from Chu Lang Chenxi that Wang Yunteng's family is very rich. He has opened several silk and satin shops, restaurants, and drugstores in nearby towns. The tenants were rich beyond Mo Jinyan's imagination.

"This……"

The corners of Wang Yunteng's eyes twitched unconsciously. For Wang Yunteng, it would take a while to earn back so much money, so he was naturally reluctant to part with it.

"10 taels is 10 taels, but Immortal, you must wipe out the evil spirits that often come to my house, or we won't give you a dime."

Mrs. Wang was actually much more generous than Wang Yunteng, so she agreed right away.

"it is good."

Mo Jinyan secretly laughed in his heart: Oh, I didn't expect to be able to cheat 10 taels of silver in one go, and the day when I pay back the money is getting closer and closer.

Mo Jinyan, who was beaming with joy, immediately controlled his mood and expression. He was unsmiling, elegant, and sitting upright, making people feel unapproachable.

"Then we will wait until nine o'clock in the evening to invite the archmage to perform on the altar."

After negotiating the price, Wang Yunteng and Mo Jinyan drank tea and chatted about what they had.

Cuckoo!
Mo Jinyan, who was chatting with Wang Yunteng and his wife, suddenly groaned in his stomach.

"Immortal, are you hungry? Or why don't you eat something from me?"

Wang Yunteng looked at the even more embarrassed Mo Jinyan in embarrassment.

"It's fine."

Mo Jinyan nodded, thinking that he could have another meal with others, and he would not have to cook by himself when he returned to the mountain at night.

"I don't know if the immortal eats vegetarian food or also eats meat?"

Wang Yunteng asked politely.

"What kind of vegetarian food do we cultivators eat? Just look at it. Anyway, it's better not to be too vegetarian."

Mo Jinyan swallowed.

"How many dishes do you want? Looking at the figure of the immortal, three or four dishes are almost the same?"

Wang Yunteng thought to himself that this was the first time he met a monk who cultivated immortals without eating vegetarian food.

"I don't eat much, so let's serve seven or eight dishes first. Remember, I don't pick chicken, duck, or fish."

Mo Jinyan said with a cheeky face.

"Huh? Seven or eight dishes? You still don't eat much?"

Wang Yunteng didn't expect Mo Jinyan to eat so much.

"Fighting monsters and catching monsters is a physical effort, how can you do it if you don't eat enough?"

Mo Jinyan forced an excuse.

"Yes, I will order my servants to prepare a vegetarian meal for the immortal."

Wang Yunteng glanced back at Mrs. Wang, and the two exited the lobby.

"I thought this Wang Yunteng was very treacherous, an iron rooster, but I didn't expect him to be so stupid. He was cheated by me for eating and drinking, and even cheated me of 10 taels of money, hahahaha! Could it be that I am too smart?"

Mo Jinyan twitched her eyebrows in embarrassment.

After a long time, Wang Yunteng and his wife came back, and his subordinates brought eight dishes and one soup and put them on the round table. Mo Jinyan wiped his saliva, and without saying a word, he wolfed it down without waiting for Wang Yunteng to move his chopsticks first.

Looking at Mo Jinyan's eating posture, he can't wait to eat the plate, chopsticks, and table together.

They didn't know that what Mo Jinyan ate in the mountains in the past was clear soup with little water, and adding a duck egg to every meal was considered a big meal.

When Mo Jinyan was about to eat, he chatted with Wang Yunteng and his wife about their monsters.

A month ago, a horse in Wang Yunteng's house was drained of blood by something. In the next few days, more than a dozen horses and more than 20 cows were drained of blood. The strange thing is that they don't eat meat.

Half a month ago, the food in Wang Yunteng's house was inexplicably eaten up. The strange thing is that the sack containing the food was not opened, but had a small eye, which seemed to be eaten by mice, but how big a mouse can eat several at a time. Sack.

Three days ago, Wang Yunteng's family saw a dark object run into the granary at night, and then went to the stable and cowpen. Then three bags of grain were missing, and a horse died.

Yesterday, Wang Yunteng asked his son, daughter-in-law and grandson to drive the remaining ten horses, fifteen cattle and hundreds of catties of grain to live in a house in the town, leaving only the housekeeper, two nurses, a cook.

Mo Jinyan thought about it while eating, he just thought it was some monster or someone pretending to be a ghost. Chu Lang Moxi said that a group of people were pretending to be a ghost to scare the rich recently, so Mo Jinyan didn't take it seriously .
