Liao Zhai's Refining God

Chapter 239 Night Tour

"Shopkeeper, that scholar was cheated by Mr. Wu, should we remind him, he is our distinguished guest. Don't be slaughtered by Mr. Wu as a 'fat sheep'." At the window on the second floor , By the lantern hanging at the door, Li Quan saw Wu Laosan taking Wang Lin away, and suddenly said to the shopkeeper a little uneasy.

"Haha. Li Quan, what do you think of this scholar?" Shopkeeper Bai said with a leisurely smile.

"Scholars in the Great Xia Kingdom are all the same. They have no power to restrain a chicken, and they are full of benevolence and morality. When they see injustices, they want to go forward and argue, but they don't know that the world is dangerous. They will definitely be swallowed up by a ruffian like Wu Laosan." There is no scum left." Li Quan said.

"You can be mistaken, you still lack experience. He is a cultivator. Although his cultivation base is not innate, but there is a hidden energy fluctuation around him, which makes me extremely afraid. I know why the master wants to keep this scholar. In the workshop, with such an existence, what can Wu Laosan do to him, looking at the whole Jiyang City, I am afraid that there are not many forces who can keep him." The shopkeeper Bai said.

"Shopkeeper, is it appropriate to keep him in the workshop at this juncture?" Li Quan asked in surprise.

"What's inappropriate, even if it's an enemy, you should stay by your side and monitor it carefully. If it's not an enemy, it might be useful to stay by your side. Fangzhu thinks farther than we do." Shopkeeper Bai said.

"I hope our workshop can overcome this difficulty this time!" Li Quan said worriedly.

"Li Quan, how long have you been here?" Shopkeeper Bai said.

"It's been about 15 years. If the owner of the workshop hadn't taken me in, I'm afraid I would have starved to death in the wilderness." Li Quan said.

"Well. The owner of the shop said that if you can't get over this difficulty this time, you can leave on your own. I left you 500 taels of silver under the counter, which is enough for you to settle down and start a business." Shopkeeper Bai said lightly.

"No. Fangzhu treats me with great kindness, even if I die, I will not leave." Li Quan said firmly.

"Haha, it's good to have this kind of heart. After all, Fangzhu has not misunderstood the person. But you, a mere mortal, can't interfere in the matter, so don't go to die in vain." Shopkeeper Bai said calmly, and he seemed to feel a lot more relaxed. , quietly left the second floor, seemingly unhappy, but quickly disappeared in front of Li Quan's eyes after taking a few meters.

"Little Xianggong, take your time. I saw someone I know well, I'll go over and say hello." Wu Laosan led Wang Lin to the Zuixian Tower, Wang Lin ordered a table of sumptuous dishes, Wu Laosan excused himself and left. .

"My lord, I'm afraid this Wu Laosan is uneasy and kind, he went downstairs." Nie Xiaoqian reminded in the altar.Wang Lin didn't block her investigation, so she could tell that Wu Laosan had walked out of Zuixianlou.

"Well, looking at what kind of medicine he sells in the gourd, I feel that there seems to be something wrong with this magical workshop. It's just a matter of looking into the mouth of Mr. Wu to see if there are any clues." Wang Lin said.

"Since you feel something is wrong with Shengongfang, why don't you trade with another one?" Nie Xiaoqian said.

"If you change another house, who can eat so much jade from us? Along the way, only this Shengong workshop has a deep foundation and the price it pays is also high. This is a lot of money." Wang Lin said.

"Don't worry, my lord. With the strength of our master and servant, we may not be afraid of even the underworld yamen here. We must get the full amount of the money, and we must not suffer losses." Nie Xiaoqian said.

"That's the reason. We don't want to take advantage of others, but we can't just lose money." Wang Lin said.

"Xiao Xianggong, how good is the Drunken Immortal Duck here?" Wang Lin just finished eating when Wu Laosan rushed back and asked.

"Excellent, the meat is delicious, it melts in the mouth, and it is rare in the world. This drunken flower wine is also good, a rare good wine." Wang Lin praised sincerely.

"Xiao Xianggong, there is a small shop on the East Street that specializes in Chaos. It is a must in Jiyang Mansion. It only sells stalls at midnight. We rush there at this time, just in time to catch up." Wu Laosan said.

"That's strange. Why do you open the stall at midnight?" Wang Lin said.

"Little Xianggong does not know that there is very little food in this midnight. And there are many watchmen in Jiyang Prefecture, merchants, bearers, and porters running around at night. It is not easy to drink a hot chaotic drink, so the price It is a little more expensive than during the day, and everyone can accept it. This chaotic stall has gradually become famous, and the taste is quite authentic. Some people just wait until midnight to eat this bite." Wu Laosan introduced.

The two chatted, Wang Lin and Wu Laosan walked around the streets of Jiyang Mansion under the night, and gradually the flow of people became thinner, and they walked into a remote block.

"Brothers, here are the guests!" Wu Laosan led Wang Lin into a dead-end alley, and then shouted, five young men rushed out from the corner of the dark alley, blocking Wang Lin's retreat .

"Mr. Wu, what are you doing?" Wang Lin said with a calm smile.

"Haha, what are you doing? It took me a whole day to hang you fat fish. The piece of jade you sold to God's Workshop today is worth a few hundred taels of silver. Take out the silver ticket. How about tonight? I can spare you. Otherwise, you will die in a foreign land tonight, and your wife and children will belong to others." Wu Laosan threatened.

"Haha, I have a bank note, I'm afraid you don't have the ability to take it away!" Wang Lin said indifferently.

"Brothers, show him some color." Wu Laosan greeted.Those few people rushed up immediately, probably they usually do this kind of work, they are all very familiar, ready to punch and kick as soon as they swarmed up.

"Bang bang bang!" But they didn't touch Wang Lin's clothes at all, they were overturned one by one by Wang Lin's swirling zhenqi, and hit the wall of the alley violently, and they all fell into a coma. past.

Although Wang Lin has not yet been promoted to Xiantian, the quality and power of Liuyun Sword Qi is not weaker than Xiantian True Qi.Of course, there is no need for Liuyun sword qi to deal with these gangsters, ordinary true qi is enough, but a trace of sword qi was injected into their bodies by Wang Lin, destroying their meridians invisibly, and I am afraid that their physical fitness will It will be greatly reduced, and you can no longer do things that are fighting for courage.

"Come here!" Wang Lin stretched out her palm, and a stream of Liuyun sword whirled, and Wu Laosan, who was three meters away, was swirled and knelt down in front of Wang Lin.At the same time, Liuyun sword energy pierced into his body, smashing into his meridians, he was about to let out a tragic cry, but his throat was instantly blocked by the sword energy, but he couldn't make any cry, he could only cry out in pain. Crouching on the ground like a shrimp.

After a while, Wang Lin stopped torturing Wu Laosan. Wu Laosan was already drenched in sweat. After shaking on the ground for a while, he bowed to Wang Lin again and again, but couldn't speak.

"Let me ask you, is Shengongfang a black shop colluding with you? Think carefully before answering, your answer will determine your life or death." Wang Lin said coldly.

2 Chapter [-] Witness

"No, no, no. Shengongfang is indeed a powerful jade store, and it has no cooperation with us. The other jade workshops have cooperation with the villain. I brought a customer, and they took the silver for the customer's consumption. [-]% of the profit." Wu Laosan hurriedly said.

"How much do you know about God's Workshop?" Wang Lin asked.

"I don't know much about it, but Shen's Workshop is extremely mysterious and profound, and it's not something we can approach at this level. According to some people, even the government dare not offend Shen's Workshop." Wu Laosan said.

"My lord, he's telling the truth. They really don't know much about Shen's Workshop." At this time, Nie Xiaoqian, who turned into a whirlwind and escaped from the altar, searched for the memories of those gangsters, said.

"Bang!" Wang Lin waved her palm, Wu Laosan flew out, fell on the wall and passed out.

"It's fine if we can't figure it out. As long as Shengongfang pays us the money on time, we don't want to be troublesome." Wang Lin and Nie Xiaoqian exchanged words and walked out of the alley slowly.

However, Wang Lin didn't notice that after Wang Lin left, a white shadow flashed away and disappeared in a dog hole under the inner wall of the alley.

"Wu Laosan is right, this chaos is really authentic!" Wang Lin asked all the way, and came to this chaos stall in the middle of the night, and ordered a bowl of chaos, and suddenly felt that it was not in vain.

"My dear guest, let me wait." When Wang Lin leisurely returned to Shen's Workshop, the shopkeeper with white eyebrows was already waiting for Wang Lin at the door, and when she saw Wang Lin, she quickly stepped forward and said respectfully.

"Treasurer Bai hasn't gone to bed so late, what is he waiting for?" Wang Lin asked.

"The owner of the shop is welcome, and I also ask fellow Taoists to be a witness for my workshop." Shopkeeper Bai said.

"Be a witness!" Wang Lin was startled, and nodded in agreement after a moment of thought.

"Young master, the smell of incense and vows. There should be gods from the underworld here." Under the leadership of shopkeeper Bai, Wang Lin came to the hall. The altar reminded.

"What's the matter here?" Wang Lin thought about it and followed Shopkeeper Bai into the hall.

"Huh!" As soon as he entered the hall, a gust of wind rushed towards his face.Naturally, Wang Lin could see clearly that a errand rushed up to him and spewed out his evil spirit. He thought Wang Lin was just an ordinary cultivator, so he deliberately gave Wang Lin a bad blow.

"Phew!" Wang Lin stretched out her big sleeves, and a stream of flowing sword energy shot out. The wisps of sword energy were like small knives, instantly cutting apart this sinister dharma body, turning it into nothingness and dissipating. The power of yang was injected into it, causing it to be seriously injured.

The ghost gathered Dharma body again and stood behind a red-robed judge in the hall, looking at Wang Lin with anger and fear in his eyes.A wave of Wang Lin's sleeve made him seriously injured, how could he not be frightened, and at this moment Wang Lin looked like an ordinary scholar, as if she had no cultivation at all.But the more this happened, the more he felt that Wang Lin was unfathomable.

At this time, Wang Lin also observed the situation in the hall. An old lady was sitting in the middle. The look of injury.

Behind the old lady stood a woman, her face covered with a white veil, standing quietly.Judging from her figure, this woman should be extremely good.

On the right hand side of the old lady sat Wen Juan of the Yamen of the Yin Division. Behind Wen Juan stood two Yin servants. From their clothes, it can be seen that these two Yin servants are night guards.One of them had attacked Wang Lin before and suffered a dark loss.

"Where is the immortal hometown of Taoist friends? I don't know if you came to my Jiyang Mansion, but have you ever filed a record with the Yamen of the Yin Division?" the judge said in a deep voice.There was a hint of coercion in the voice, obviously to put pressure on Wang Lin.

"I'm just a scholar on study tour, not a cultivator, so I don't need to file a record." Wang Lin said indifferently.

"Madam Bai, we've waited so long just for this scholar!" Wen Juan snorted coldly and continued, "Then let's get back to business."

The lady sitting on it ignored the errand, but stood up and bowed slightly to Wang Lin, saying, "I shouldn't bother you when you come here, but it's just that it's hard to find fellow practitioners at the moment, so I invite you to be a witness. Fellow Daoist, please don’t refuse.”

"I'm just here to do business, so it's okay to be a witness, but if someone thinks I'm easy to bully and tricks me, I won't agree." Wang Lin said calmly, with a cold murderous look in her words .

"I don't dare, I just want to be a witness." The old lady nodded and continued: "Master Wen Jue came to the humble house in person, if you have something to say, it doesn't matter."

"Mrs. Bai, it's not that I, the Chengyin Division of Jiyang Prefecture, didn't abide by morality and wanted to drive you out of here. Yes, your Shengongfang did show kindness to the former Lord Chenghuang, so when the former Lord Chenghuang was in office, I promised that your Shengongfang would last forever. Establish a foothold in my Jiyang Mansion.

If you promise that, it won’t make it difficult for our Yinsi Yamen, you can still stay in Jiyang Mansion and be protected by my Yinsi Yamen, but now you don’t agree to this matter, my Yinsi Yamen has no choice but to , I can only ask you to leave this place. "Wen Judgment said.

"Even if all my old and family members are killed in battle, it is impossible for me to promise this matter. If you want to break the promise, it is because of your ruthlessness, not because of my innocence. This fellow Taoist is here today, please be a witness, in the future even if If it gets out, no one can say that I have made mistakes in Shengongfang." The old lady said in a deep voice.

"Then when will your workshop move out?" Wen Pan asked.

"Who said my Shengongfang will move away!" The old lady continued with a sneer: "My Shengongfang is a good citizen under the rule of the Great Xia Kingdom, so just do our business without stealing or robbing. Your underworld yamen is in charge of You have no right to intervene in the affairs of the spirit world as long as we don’t show magic. Of course, if someone comes to your door and uses magic to attack us, you must enforce the law impartially.”

"Mrs. Bai, you and I are smart people. Being so impulsive will not solve the problem at all, and it will bring disaster to the people of Jiyang Mansion. Do you have the heart to watch the people around you die because of your magic workshop?" Wen judged The topic changed.

Seeing that the old lady was silent, Wen Juan continued: "If we each take a step back, I'll go find someone who will invite nearby fellow practitioners to be witnesses at the junction of Qingyang Mountain and Jiyang Mansion. How about a paper fight or a force fight to settle this matter?"

"That's good. I don't believe there is no room for reason in this world." The old lady said in a deep voice.

"So, I'll reply to someone." Wen Juan said with a happy face.

"Please go ahead!" The old lady said with a grim expression.

Wen Juan cupped his hands and turned to leave. The errand, who had suffered a dark loss earlier, glanced at Wang Lin coldly, obviously extremely unwilling.

"The old lady must be the owner of Shengongfang. She let me offend the Yinsi Yamen of Jiyang Mansion for no reason. Should we settle this account?" Wang Lin said coldly.

Chapter 241 Persecution

"Lady Gu Yu, please take pity on my orphan and widow, and save us!" The old lady suddenly pulled the woman behind her and knelt down towards Wang Lin.

"Your Excellency has been hiding behind for so long, it's time to come out and meet!" Wang Lin looked at the two kneeling in front of her unmoved, but looked at the screen on the side of the hall and said.

This screen is made of jade, and there are beautiful paintings engraved on the upper temple, which are "Flowers and Birds in Early Spring". The flowers and birds seem to be alive, and they are vivid and vivid under the reflection of the lights in the hall.

Wang Lin used the Qi Watching Technique to observe the screen again, and discovered the mystery. The screen carved out of jade is not only a wonderful decoration, but also contains an aura of energy, which can shield the air mechanism.

If the lady and the woman behind her hadn't suddenly knelt down in front of Wang Lin, and there was a sound behind the screen, Wang Lin would not have noticed that there was someone behind her.

"Little friend Guyu, it's me!" With a familiar voice, Taoist Huang Ming, his master and apprentice, and Taoist Chengfeng walked out, and Taoist Huang Ming greeted them.

"The Taoist priest is so elegant that he hid here and eavesdropped." Wang Lin was stunned, and suddenly felt that she could meet this Taoist priest everywhere, and she was really speechless.Then he joked.

"Oh, I'm ashamed, I went to Jinghua Lake, and I'm going to lose the Taoist temple when I come back. What kind of elegance is there. Please help us." Huang Ming said without thinking.

"It must have been the Taoist priest's idea to offend the Yamen of the Yin Division of Jiyang Mansion for no reason!" Wang Lin said displeased.

"Tonight, I came to Shengongfang to discuss things with my friend Chengfeng. Madam Bai said that there was a cultivator here. After their description, we found that it was Xiaoyou who was here. We were overjoyed and asked him to come here temporarily. Be a witness.

It is true that he did not expect that the Yinsi Yamen of Jiyang Prefecture would be so cowardly, determined to be a dog, and yet be so loyal.They even violated their oath to persecute Madam Bai. Originally, we were counting on the Yamen of Yinsi Yamen of Jiyang Prefecture to also contribute, but it seems that there is no hope.So I want to ask my friends for help. "Huang Mingdao said long.

"Haha!" Wang Lin smiled lightly and did not answer.

"Of course, I can't let my little friend help me when I'm busy. Shengongfang has a lot of money and wealth, and Taoist Chengfeng and I also have some good things, let the little friend choose." Huang Mingdao.

"As long as Layman Guyu is willing to help, I am willing to buy that batch of jade for 10 taels of silver, and I will also give you a piece of silkworm clothes and a thousand-year-old fire ganoderma." Mrs. Bai, the owner of Shengongfang, said.

"My little friend may not know that Shengongfang is famous for carving jade in the common world. In fact, it is just their amateur tricks. The real strength lies in their ability to make all kinds of wonderful things. For example, this silkworm clothes are made of Kunlun jade. The mountain snow spirit silkworm weaves silk, which can avoid swords and dust, and its toughness is comparable to that of innate real weapons; and it is cool and comfortable to wear next to the body, it is a rare treasure." Taoist Huang Ming explained next to him.

"That depends on the identity of the other party, what kind of cultivation they have, and what kind of spells they have. If there is a disparity in strength, I won't go into this muddy water." Wang Lin said lightly.

The first acquaintance between Wang Lin and Taoist Huang Ming was through a transactional relationship. The things Huang Ming said really moved Wang Lin's heart, but the problem was that he had to be able to swallow it, otherwise Wang Lin would not do it.

"The opponent's cultivation base is similar to that of the Lake God of Jinghua Lake, and he doesn't even have the unique geographical advantage of the Lake God of Jinghua Lake. Because although he has stolen the mountain god's seat of Qingyang Mountain, he has not yet fully refined the mountain god's seal. He is a monster. Xiu, just entered the foundation building realm, and has initially mastered the mysteries of qi, and can perform five-element spells. We have also received the news that the little friend defeated the God of Jinghua Lake. If we plan carefully, we may not have a chance of winning." Huang Ming said.

"Master Daoist, to be honest, the ability to defeat the evil god of Jinghua Lake is entirely due to Yue Liusu, and has nothing to do with me." Wang Lin waved her hands lightly.

"Little friend, can you ask General Dongyue Liusu to help him? After all, we have also helped him in Jinghu Villa. Now that we are in trouble, she may not stand by." Huang Ming was moved when he heard it.

"I'm sorry, the evil spirit of Jinghua Lake has escaped, and Jinghu Villa is not safe. General Yueliusu and his family have gone to Jinhua Mansion to take refuge." Wang Lin frowned when she heard this, and continued: "Can you tell the whole story, up to now? I haven't even figured out what happened."

According to Taoist Huang Ming's tone, if Yue Liusu came, I'm afraid he would kidnap him emotionally, and he didn't want to pay too much, so Wang Lin didn't promise to inform Yue Liusu, but just left the topic aside.

"Before we went to Jinghua Lake, there was no mountain god in Qingyang Mountain. When we returned to Qingyang Mountain, we found that the vacant seat of the mountain god in Qingyang Mountain had already been occupied. And the Dahuai of Qingyang Mountain who had made friends with us The Lord of Earth in Tree Town has also disappeared without a trace, and we suspect that he was swallowed by this mountain god.

A few days later, the mountain god came to my Fuqing Temple, asking me to hand over a hundred pillars of incense and fire vows to him every month. The words were very overbearing; Out of the body, it is a black fox. We are not his opponents, so we have to compromise with a few good things for it. "Huang Mingdao said long.

"It's begging for mercy!" Daoist Chengfeng was a sincere person, and added beside him.

Huang Ming blushed and continued: "If he doesn't kill us, he probably thinks he can eat us and enslave us forever to provide him with cultivation resources. This is the nature of demon cultivators. My view of Fuqing is the practice left by the ancestors of the past dynasties. If the land is lost in my hands, how can I go to meet them."

"I built Qingfengguan by myself, and it's really hard to let it go." Cheng Fengdao didn't have many long words, but he added.

"Then what about the God's Workshop?" Wang Lin asked, looking at Mrs. Bai and the young woman beside her in the God's Workshop.

They had been kneeling in front of Wang Lin, and Wang Lin waved them to stand up at this time.

"Guyu Layman, the concubine's situation is worse than that of the two Taoist friends. To be honest, we are not human beings, but transformed monsters, and the Jade Rabbit clan. The old man was born in the peak state, my granddaughter was born in the initial state, and my brother Innate Middle Realm.

The reason why we live in seclusion in the big city is because of the natural physique of our Jade Rabbit Clan, we are excellent cauldrons for demon cultivators, especially unmarried women.That black fox demon married my granddaughter, not because of sincerity, but because he wanted to use my granddaughter to improve his cultivation, and then devour my granddaughter and even our family of three to improve his cultivation. purpose.

Layman Guyu may not understand that the world of demon cultivators is extremely brutal and bloody, and there are too many things to devour each other to improve one's cultivation. My Jade Rabbit clan is soft and not good at fighting, so I can only seek the protection of big forces.

Back then, my husband was kind to the City God of Jiyang Mansion, and after making friends deliberately, he signed an agreement to permanently live in Jiyang Mansion, and we were able to live in stability for hundreds of years.

Not long ago, the black fox came to the goal and injured the old man, and left a cruel word that he wanted to marry my granddaughter.Fortunately, the City God of the Yamen of the Yin Division of Jiyang Prefecture came, and the black fox demon Xiu retreated.

I thought that the city god of Jiyang Mansion would protect me, but the black fox didn't dare to come again to make troubles. I didn't expect that the Yamen of Yinsi turned their face and ruthless. First, they persuaded us with good words to let us have this marriage with the mountain god of Qingyang Mountain. Naturally, the old man will not allow it. Tonight, the city god The subordinate judge actually came to the door and forced us to move out of Jiyang Mansion. This is to drive us out! " Mrs. Bai cried and complained.

242章 珍品

"There are not many comprehension fellows in the area around the city of Jiyang Prefecture, so we have always been in touch with Shengongfang. After being persecuted by the mountain god, we communicated with each other immediately. Originally, we were still analyzing, The Yamen of the Yin Division of Jiyang Mansion was also coerced, and I wanted to ask them to take action against the demon cultivator together, but now it seems that this is not the case. On the side of Xiu, he is determined to persecute Shengongfang." Huang Ming said.

"Analyzed by the old man, Na Wenjuan proposed to openly invite fellow cultivators around Qingyang Mountain to watch my God Workshop and the demon cultivator solve the problem. I am afraid that he wanted to kill chickens and scare monkeys to further consolidate the status of the demon cultivator in Qingyang Mountain. A plan. With the Yamen of the Underworld watching us, I am afraid that it will be difficult for me, Shengongfang, to leave Jiyang Mansion secretly, and once I leave, I will be chased and killed by that demon cultivator." Mrs. Bai said.

"Give me the things you promised to check first. Well, if I am satisfied, I can consider helping you with this matter. If I am not satisfied, I don't want to take such a big risk to fight against a big man in the foundation period. Demon." Wang Lin said.

"Yes!" Huang Ming said happily.He didn't have much contact with Wang Lin, but he knew that Wang Lin was a person who kept his promises and spoke directly.
