Infinite Script Killing
Chapter 211 Suffering on behalf of others
At noon the next day, news came out of the Antique City in City L.
It was said that a wealthy family had taken out their treasures hidden in the Chenghuang Temple and planned to exchange them for a large sum of money.
The antique circle is not big and everyone is familiar with each other. When the news came out, some people scoffed and thought it was all an old routine, but others were like flies smelling blood and began to inquire around.
"Bah, it's just a trick from earlier years. It's just a trick to deceive those uninformed laymen. It's all out of date."
Several antique dealers chatted about this matter in a tea shed on the street.
A fat boss took a sip from his tea cup and laughed immediately after hearing this:
"This was all a trick from a few years ago. It's not new. Let me tell you something. Aren't there going to be an overpass in the south of the city? You just pretend to be people at the construction site, holding some inconspicuous goods and smearing some mud on them, saying it's from The treasures dug out of the river can be resold for a huge price."
As soon as the fat boss said this, several people on the side immediately became interested and said, "What a great idea, but you can't play it a few times, right?"
The fat boss sneered when he heard this: "Seeing is believing. When we are done with this trick, we will go to Beimang Mountain to dig a big hole, stuff some random things in it, drag the big bosses over, and open his grave on the spot." Dig for treasure.”
“Wonderful!!”
Everyone clapped and applauded. This idea came up. Even if these big bosses found out that the things were fake later, they would not dare to call the police. After all, tomb robbing is a serious crime and no one wants to cause trouble. Even if they call the police, their actions are not considered illegal. Grave robbing.
"Boss Zhang is really the living Zhuge here." Everyone praised him.
The fat boss curled his lips: "That's right, I, Zhang San, have been traveling around the world for so many years, and I have many ways to make everyone rich."
The group of people were talking enthusiastically in the tea shed, but little did they know that their words were heard clearly by the mother and son.
Sun Ding sneered, and just as he was about to teach these people a lesson, his mother pressed him down: "We can't stop it. This kind of thing will happen more often in the future. You teach them a lesson, and you can't stop them from getting rich. From now on we Just keep your eyes open."
Sun Ding hesitated after hearing his mother's words: "That matter about the City God's Temple..."
"Look, let's wait for two days for things that are not urgent." The woman said, leaving a piece of money and leaving with Sun Ding.
Sun Ding and her son are definitely not the only ones who have a woman-like mentality.
When Xu Tong brought his things to the beef offal soup restaurant at night, no one came until midnight.
Chen Jian, who had been staying in the soup restaurant, was also dozing off frequently and felt that this guy's method was unreliable.
Seeing that no one came, Xu Tong was surprised and didn't take it to heart, so he just came here to continue gaining experience.
At about three o'clock in the morning, Chen Jian couldn't stand it any more. Regardless of whether the table was greasy or not, he lay on the table and fell asleep.
"jingle!!"
The bell on the door beam rang. Wang Gong quickly poked his head out and took a look, and immediately sat down again.
It was the same man who came in at exactly the same time every day, nodded to Xu Tong and Wang Gong, and sat at the table motionless without speaking.
In fact, Xu Tong could feel that this guy seemed to have something on his mind, but he was not interested in asking. The money was here and he could take it or not.
One less of him is a lot, and one more of him is not much. There are wandering ghosts who have no money to lead the way to gain experience for themselves, so why bother to bother with other people's affairs in a thankless way.
No, in just a moment, a lost soul walked into the soup restaurant.
This wandering soul seemed to have been wandering outside for a long time, and a fishy smell filled the air as soon as he entered.
After entering the door, he looked around blankly and saw the money Xu Tong placed on the table. His eyes lit up and he stepped forward to meet Xu Tong.
"you……"
The money was on the table. The old ghost opened his mouth but didn't say anything when the words reached his lips.
"Take it, take this money, go to the underworld as soon as possible, and wander in the human world is not a thing."
Xu Tong glanced at the old ghost and saw that the old ghost couldn't open his mouth, so he handed the money to him.
The old ghost took the money, looked at it, and sighed with a face. He arched his hands towards Xu Tong and was about to leave. But when he walked to the door, the old ghost looked back at Xu Tong: "The boss is a kind-hearted person, but good intentions may not necessarily lead to good things." Report, don’t go north today.”
After the old ghost finished speaking, he hurriedly disappeared into the night without waiting for Xu Tong to ask any more questions.
"North?"
Xu Tong raised his eyebrows, his heart suddenly thumped, and he suddenly had a bad feeling.
He reached out and patted Chen Jian, waking him up from his deep sleep. He threw the pile of bottles and cans on the table to him, and immediately rushed out of the soup house and headed straight towards the Shangqing Palace.
The old ghost didn't explain what was going on when he left just now, but for some reason he felt a strong sense of discomfort when he heard the news from the north, as if something was about to happen over there.
City L, because of the Beimang Mountain, has always been very backward in development, with only a few sparse small villages.
What will happen over there? ?
Instead of riding a bicycle, he summoned Big Fat, and after having Big Fat transform into a ghost form, he stood on Big Fat's shoulders and flashed and teleported towards the north.
At the same time, his eyes were scanning the darkness like a goshawk.
It was quiet in the dark night. Usually, there would occasionally be a few dogs roaring at night, but today it was exceptionally quiet.
Suddenly, Xu Tong seemed to have discovered something. He asked the big fat man to stop on a beam. When he looked down, he saw several beggars squatting in the corner holding sticks, sneaking around as if they were waiting for someone. .
Then I looked at two or three beggars not far away.
“Where did so many beggars come from??”
What Xu Tong doesn't know is that the number of beggars in L City has suddenly increased several times recently, but today is indeed a bit abnormal.
When he looked up again, he saw a black shadow walking down the path above.
Xu Tong took a closer look and immediately realized that the person walking down from above was none other than Chang Miao.
It turns out that Chang Miao has been thinking about it every day since she got the fragment of Taoist Zhuzhu's Taoist Inspiration. She even got up before dawn and pushed the excrement truck to the toilet below in order not to affect her bowel movements, planning to Plan your time properly and give yourself time to practice.
Xu Tong just thought that Chang Miao was too busy with feces work recently, so he didn't pay attention to it.
But now seeing Chang Miao pushing the dung cart down, Xu Tong couldn't help but frowned. Looking left and right, he suddenly saw a familiar figure in the corner, which was the beggar that night.
As soon as he saw him, Xu Tong understood everything immediately and narrowed his eyes: "Good boy, it turns out it was you."
Seeing Chang Miao pushing the dung cart down, Xu Tong's eyes flashed, and he simply sat on the beam and watched. In fact, he also wanted to see if Chang Miao had any real ability.
After all, when Mr. Song talked about Chang Miao, the Lord of Baidung, his words were still full of admiration.
Didn't he come here with this idea in mind at first, but later he discovered that Chang Miao was different from what he thought, so he simply took this opportunity to experiment.
I saw Chang Miao pushing the cart, humming a little tune, and seemed to be in a good mood.
He had just walked downhill and was walking happily forward when suddenly several beggars came out of the corner and blocked Chang Miao in front of him.
Chang Miao was startled, and in the blink of an eye, he saw that the group of beggars had swarmed up and surrounded him, which shocked Chang Miao.
But then I thought about it, what were these beggars doing to stop me? ?
Just when he was confused, Lai Da, the beggar who was in the City God's Temple before, stepped forward, looked at Chang Miao coldly and said with a smile: "Uncle, mountains and rivers will not change, I have done everything you asked me to do. Could you please give me the remaining money?"
"money??"
Chang Miao was startled, and looked Lai Da up and down. After much thought, she couldn't remember any interactions with the beggar. She frowned and said, "What money, I don't know??"
Lai Da wasn't angry when he heard this, but his eyes became colder: "Haha, even beggars have to pay back their money. Okay, I don't want the money, but you have to give me a share of the treasure. After all, I showed you the treasure in the Chenghuang Temple for two or three years. , you don’t share any of it with me, isn’t that outrageous?”
When Xu Tong, who was sitting on the beam, heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head secretly, thinking of the wandering ghost just now. He knew how to be shameless as a ghost, but he didn't expect a person like Lai Da to be shameless.
"What baby, I don't know!"
Chang Miao was a little annoyed, but she glanced at her dung truck with guilty eyes.
This detail was naturally noticed by Lai Da, and his heart moved: "It turned out to be hidden in the dung truck. This is a good idea."
Thinking of this, he looked around to make sure that the big black man from yesterday was not following him, and snorted coldly: "Okay, no, brothers, you're welcome, beat him up!"
After saying that, a group of beggars waved their sticks and greeted Chang Miao. They immediately beat Chang Miao to the ground, covered their heads and screamed.
Xu Tong originally wanted to take action, but then he thought, it would be better to get beaten. Who asked you to burn Taoist Zhuzhu? Although you suffered this for yourself, you deserved it.
These beggars didn't really mean to hurt anyone. Jian Changmiao was just an ordinary person, and he just hit him a few times and then didn't do anything again.
They followed Lai Da mainly because they heard Lai Da say that there was a Bajiquan master next to this guy. Since that person was not here, there was no need to be cruel.
"Brother, don't say I'm dishonest. The things in this should be regarded as my reward. From now on, we will be clean, and no one will owe anything to anyone."
After Lai Da finished speaking, he hurriedly left with the people pushing the dung cart.
After a while, Chang Miao got up from the ground and looked at the dung truck being pushed away with a depressed expression. She couldn't help but cursed: "Bah, what the hell, you deserve to be beggars, even the dung is shot."
As he spoke, he rubbed his shoulders with both hands, and even cursed and greeted him. He just blamed himself for being unlucky and meeting a group of mad dogs that ate shit.
Just as he was about to walk back, Chang Miao suddenly slapped his head, turned around and looked in the direction where Lai Da and others disappeared and stamped his feet: "Oh, that pig is still in there!"
