Chapter 252: The Great Thief Pays the Bill
Because of the wanted warrant in Jialing Province, the Fifth Tingyun had to take Dai Qinglian to avoid important cities, and shuttled through the forest just like the first time he went to Yuzhong County to participate in the promotion and exemption qualifying tournament. But fortunately, I have experience, and I can save a lot of trouble this time.
Along the way, Dai Qinglian always maintained her abundant energy, and she seemed to like to travel in the jungle very much. And because of the huge shade of the trees, she doesn't need to hold an umbrella all the time, and after freeing her hands, she can completely release her vitality.
Therefore, along the way, Dai Qinglian was not very happy, but she was the fifth to listen to the cloud, and she was tossed miserably. The white crane lame three is like a faithful slave of the two, and has been silently following behind, and when Dai Qinglian is tired, it can still carry Dai Qinglian to continue to hurry.
The fifth Tingyun rarely rode a horse, first, he felt that four days was enough to reach Yuzhong County, and secondly, walking far away was not a kind of cultivation for him?
He tried to use the Yuan Force, and every step he took was completed as much as possible with Tiyun Zong's body and footwork. After walking like this for a day, during the evening break, he found that the effect of his meditation was better than before, and the speed of absorbing Yuan Li seemed to have become much faster. He secretly analyzed that it must be that the long-term use of Tiyun Zong has consumed too much Dantian Yuan Force, which has led to an increase in Dantian's demand for Yuan Force.
After analyzing it in this way, he relied more on Tiyun Zong for the next journey. He didn't know it, but unintentionally, he slowly mastered the profound meaning of Tiyun Zong's body martial arts.
In the process of hurrying, the fifth Tingyun tried to ask Dai Qinglian many times, wanting to analyze the origin of their mother and daughter. But Dai Qinglian really didn't know anything, she only remembered that she had come all the way from a far, far away place.
In addition to hurrying, the fifth Tingyun would occasionally wander around the depths of the jungle, and if he met enough suitable prey, he would also spend a lot of effort, and at the same time, he would achieve the effect of training. For him, ordinary beasts are difficult to see.
If you want to add food, you have to hunt and kill the demonic beasts of the Enlightenment, which is the standard he has set for himself.
The two of them played like this, and finally arrived at Tianmen City on the afternoon of the fourth day. Coming to the bank of the Chu River, the fifth Tingyun couldn't help but think of the Chu River test, Han Xuanfeng, Huang He, Tan Lei and others, the fifth Tingfeng, and Yu Linglong.
Then, he remembered the promotion and exemption qualifiers, Li Chufeng, and Tianmen Li Mansion.
Last time, he was beaten unconscious and left Jialing Province in a daze. This time, he came here again, he clenched his fists, and vowed that he would definitely get the admission qualification of the Seventh School of the Emperor Star and the bronze badge of the Martial God Temple.
Only by getting the badge can he protect himself, his family, and his family!
After thinking of this, he began to worry about Shifu and Bai Jie again. In the battle of Tianmen, Li Yuandong and Qilu escaped through the tunnel of the Wuxiang Hall of the Second Dish, and there was no major problem afterwards, he learned from He Yueming that Li Yuandong had returned to Nanshu Academy as early as a month ago, and obtained the qualification for exemption.
In this way, only Shifu and Bai Jie have no news at present.
If Shi Fu and Bai Jie were still alive, they would probably be with the Second Dish Wuxiang Hall and the Ghost King Sect. And the headquarters of the Second Dish Wuxiang Hall in Tianmen City was uprooted, so it was very likely that he would go to the Ghost King Sect.
After this analysis, he decided to wait for this matter and go to Fengdu County again, where the base camp of the Ghost King Sect was located.
"Sugar gourd, fragrant and sweet sugar gourd~"
Fifth, when Tingyun's thoughts were flying, a shout sounded in his ears.
As the shouting came, he felt someone tugging at his arm. Looking at Dai Qinglian's big eyes that kept flashing, he smiled helplessly: "If you want to eat sugar gourds, then go buy it." ”
"Lian'er...... No money......" pouted, Dai Qinglian chirped, and her little face turned red all of a sudden.
Thanks to my preparation, the fifth Tingyun muttered silently, and then took Dai Qinglian by the hand, walked to the vendor, and bought two strings of sugar gourds. Dai Qinglian turned to sugar gourds, and she was coquettish vigorously, shouting "The fifth brother is so good".
Fifth Tingyun touched Dai Qinglian's head and said, "Go eat it." ”
Hmm, Dai Qinglian didn't resist.
"Boss, I heard that there is a sugar gourd monster thief in Tianmen City recently?" The fifth Tingyun pretended to be bored and chatted with the vendor who sold the sugar gourd.
"Isn't it, it's not just Tianmen City, but the four or five surrounding cities, including Jiaqing City, the sugar gourd has been looted by this hateful thief. Pity our small business, it is estimated that in the next two months, we will only be able to drink rice soup and gird our waists to survive. ”
The vendor was very angry and continued: "I can only barely make ends meet, but when I am engaged by this thief, my life will be sad." ”
The fifth Tingyun asked, "Then have you seen the face of this strange thief?"
"Why didn't you see it? He has robbed the street several times, and it's strange to say, there are more treasures in the major trading houses, why can't he get along with us ordinary people?"
"Then tell me what the strange thief looks like?"
"I don't look very clearly, but I am in tatters, like a beggar. The hair was also dirty and unkempt, like a bird's ......nest."
Hearing this, the fifth Tingyun had already determined that this sugar gourd monster thief was Luoge.
"Hey, it's been a sad day......" The vendor began to sigh again.
The fifth Tingyun comforted: "Boss, don't be so pessimistic, life is always forward-looking." ”
"Look forward, hehe, young man, you are still young, some burdens are not on you, so you are not pessimistic, you can look forward. ”
As for the vendor's words, the fifth Tingyun just smiled and did not speak.
Before leaving, the fifth Tingyun smiled and said to the vendor: "Boss, maybe tomorrow the strange thief will find out with his conscience and come to make up for the money." ”
After speaking, without waiting for the vendor to respond, he pulled Dai Qinglian, led the lame three horses, and blended into Tianmen City in a low-key manner. Tomorrow is the time for the second round of the entrance examination to officially begin, and he plans to stay in Tianmen for one night tonight, and then cross the river to Jiaqing College tomorrow morning.
That night, the moon was dark and the wind was high.
On the second floor of an inn in Tianmen City, a dark shadow climbed out of the window, jumped downstairs, and quickly disappeared into the night. The Black Shadow has a good body, as long as the wall is not too high, he can climb it. He seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and every time he reached a target location, he would touch into the room, put down fifty copper coins, and then quietly slip away.
And so on and so forth.
When the dawn of dawn shines on the earth the next day, the sugar gourd vendors in Tianmen City will find fifty neatly stacked copper coins on their desks when they get up early. Compared to the sugar gourds they had robbed, fifty copper coins were enough.
In a low room in the north of the city, a man and a woman were staring at the copper coins on the table.
"Daddy, where did the money come from?" the woman asked.
The man replied, "I don't know, but I saw it here when I came together." ”
The woman said, "Anyway, since it's here, it's ours." ”
The man said, "How can that be done? The money is not clear, I think I should ask the neighbors, right?"
The woman poked the man and scolded: "Ask the neighbors? You ask Lao Zhang, and Lao Zhang says that it is his; if you ask Lao Wang again, Lao Wang will also say that it is his! You pig brain, no matter who he belongs to, it will be regarded as compensation for our two sugar gourds." ”
Sugar gourd...... The man's eyes lit up, and he muttered to himself, "It can't really be the thief's conscience discovery, right?"
