I'm catching monsters in Liaozhai

It seemed that he saw the dissatisfaction on Xu Lang's face.

Wang Liu said: "Looking back on this matter, I will also talk to the county boss. We really cannot let the Black Panther Gang do whatever they want..."

He paused and said: "Brother Xu, I have some things to deal with, so I won't accompany you. The county master will invite everyone to dinner tonight. Remember to come on time."

Wang Liu left with two of his men.

The crowd of onlookers also dispersed.

Xu Lang looked at Old Man Xue on the side, then at the chicken coop not far away, and asked, "Old man, what are your plans next? Continue selling chickens, or go home?"

"I sold one today, so I won't sell it for now. I'll go buy medicine for my old lady later."

As he spoke, Old Man Xue handed over the compensation money he had just received and said, "Brother, just take this money."

Xu Lang didn't answer and said, "Those three guys paid this to you. What are you doing for me?"

Old Man Xue said: "If you hadn't acted righteously today, little brother, not to mention the money, even my two chickens would be gone, so I can't take the money."

Xu Lang asked: "Old man, doesn't that person in your family need to take medicine? How can you buy medicine for her if you don't have money?"

"But……"

"Okay, just keep the money, don't sell those two chickens, keep them at home to raise eggs!"

After saying that, Xu Lang ignored him, picked up the two wine bowls on the ground, walked over, and returned them to the roast chicken shop owner.

"Boss, let's have another roast chicken. Well... let's have two."

"Okay!"

Perhaps because all the arrestees in the yamen supported Xu Lang, the owner of the roast chicken shop also knew that Xu Lang was not an ordinary person.

Attitudes have changed a lot.

Xu Lang didn't want these two roast chickens to eat. He bought them for Old Man Xue.

Seeing Xu Lang hanging the two chickens and most of the unfinished jar of wine on one end of his pole, old man Xue quickly refused: "This is unacceptable."

He has already received a lot of care from Xu Lang, how could he be allowed to spend so much money again?

"Okay, old man, I bought everything, you can't let me throw it away," Xu Lang said.

"Then you can take it back and eat it."

The old man still refused.

"Old man, actually I don't like chicken."

Xu Lang said so.

At this time, Old Man Xue had no reason to continue to refuse, so he had no choice but to let Xu Lang tie up the wine and roast chicken at that end.

"Old man, you should go home quickly. We will see you again by fate."

Xu Lang waved his hand towards Old Man Xue, then turned and left.

Behind.

Old man Xue's eyes became moist at some point...

-

Xu Lang walked along the street.

go straight.

no purpose.

Unconsciously, he left the busy street and came to a remote alley.

Xu Lang was planning to go back.

Just now.

He stopped suddenly.

He saw an interesting shop.

Above the open door, there is a plaque that is about to fall down at any time, with three large characters written on it.

Zabaozhai.

Is this what doing business looks like?

No one does business like this.

Not to mention the location of the store is remote.

and.

This store is too run-down.

Can you put that sign up and hang it better?

Not afraid of hitting anyone.

However, it is unlikely to hit anyone.

No one should be going in to buy anything.

should.

That's just what it should be.

There are always exceptions.

Xu Lang wanted to go in and take a look.

He had heard it said.

The more dilapidated a place is, the more likely it is that there will be incredible treasures.

This is Taobao.

Taobao.

Taobao, if you go to the right place.

That’s called buying.

Rather than shopping.

Let’s not talk about whether things are true or not.

Even if it were real, it would be extremely expensive.

Totally unnecessary.

Taobao.

What is important is to search for sand in the waves and find treasures in the waves.

Pay attention to one's vision.

It's all about luck.

Xu Lang believed that he had that vision.

Believe that you have that luck.

Although he has never found treasures.

But he always believed that that day would come.

Walk through the door.

Xu Lang thought the shop owner would be an old man, or at least a middle-aged man.

Unexpectedly, it was a young man.

This doesn't quite match the old storefront.

But there is still some agreement.

The furnishings inside the store are indeed miscellaneous, just like its name and its people.

The young man looked like he had a weak kidney, with two dark circles under his eyes. He scratched his messy hair and yawned, saying, "Look at whatever you want..."

Done.

He fell asleep on the table again.

Also snored.

Apparently, he had just been sleeping.

It was just the arrival of Xu Lang that woke him up.

"If you do business this way, you won't be afraid of people vacating your place!"

Xu Lang muttered softly.

But he soon found that he was overthinking it. After walking around, he saw everything, broken bowls, broken dishes, broken mirrors, broken... rotten wood.

I'm done with it.

Said it was a miscellaneous treasure store.

Might as well call it a junk shop.

Thieves are too lazy to visit.

"Squeak-!"

A mouse jumped out of the door, holding a bone of an unknown animal in its mouth. It was not afraid of people at all and walked past Xu Lang's feet with its big feet.

Go deep into the junk shop.

Xu Lang was about to leave.

At this time, he saw a thick book under the table beside him.

The table was missing a leg, and the book was used as a cushion for the table leg.

"Comprehensive Knowledge of Practice"

It was covered with dust, and Xu Lang could barely make out the big characters on it.

He carefully pulled the book out.

The table has four legs, so it doesn't matter if one of them is missing temporarily.

Xu Lang patted the dust on it and almost choked him to death.

turn on.

Above is the handwritten font.

Very sloppy.

Ugly.

Xu Lang wondered if the person who wrote the book had not been taught calligraphy properly by his teacher when he was a child.

However, the content inside is still very real.

It is indeed a complete collection of spiritual practice knowledge.

The first article introduces:

"What is practice? Everything in the world is practicing practice every time it exhales and inhales. They all absorb the energy of heaven and earth to strengthen their bodies. Gradually, they release their breath and take form... People can be removed, monsters can be removed, and every plant and tree can be removed. …”

The handwriting is so sloppy that it makes my head hurt and my eyes hurt when I read it.

Xu Lang was speechless.

He decided to buy the book back first and then read it slowly.

then.

He walked to the counter.

Prepare to wake up the boss to check out.

Before he could speak, the young man with kidney deficiency woke up first. He casually glanced at the book in Xu Lang's hand and said, "My guest, ten taels of silver."

Twelve?

It doesn't have to be so expensive if it's made of gold.

It's just a shabby book on the corner of the table. It's selling for ten taels of silver. Why not grab it?

Of course, Xu Lang would not say that.

He smiled and said: "Boss, this is too expensive... Make it cheaper. If it costs only one tael of silver, I will buy it."

"Brother, to tell you the truth, this is the treasure of our Zabaozhai store. It costs ten taels of silver. I gave you a special discount because you are more handsome."

The boss said seriously.

Xu Lang would still be very happy if someone called him handsome guy. After all, everyone loves to hear compliments.

But now... for a shabby book, you want ten taels of silver and you still get a discount?

This is going too far.

Let me call you handsome guy.

Give me a real deal.

"Boss, I found this book under the table. How can you put the treasure of your store so casually?" Xu Lang said.

The boss said very naturally: "Do you know why I put it under the table? It's not because I'm afraid it will fly. Otherwise, how can it be called the treasure of the store? It's just because it's so important that it's kept under the table."

"..."

Xu Lang was speechless.

If the writing in the book wasn't so scrawled that it hurt his eyes to read, and he couldn't finish it in a while, he would have just read it and left.

This also directly saves money.

Although he now has a little money, he doesn't want to spend it in vain.

This boss makes it clear that he just opens his mouth.

"Forget it, let's give it to you!"

Xu Lang finally paid and bought the book.

Taking the silver and tossing it in his hand, the shop owner politely watched Xu Lang go out. While waving his hand, he said, "Handsome man, welcome to visit next time."

“Next time you visit, I’ll be a hammer!”

Xu Langtou walked away without knowing it.

Just as he turned and disappeared around the corner of the alley, he seemed to hear the sound of something collapsing.

"Crash--!"

"Clang-!"
