Chapter 100: Lao Tzu came to collect the debt

The hundredth chapter: Lao Tzu came to collect the accounts

Yunlai Inn, this is one of the lists of the ledger in Du Xiao's hand. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoOriginally, Du Xiao had already come to Anning Town, and he wanted to throw away this heavy ledger. After all, he is just a passer-by in this world, there is no need to waste a long time collecting accounts everywhere, but he is a little sorry for the old lady's expectations.

The innkeeper asked hospitably when he saw a new guest coming. "Guest officer, are you here to stay or eat?" Even the shopkeeper was enthusiastic to help Du Xiao unload the heavy bookbasket.

"I think you're mistaken, but I'm actually here to collect the bills." Du Xiao didn't beat around the bush with him, but went straight to the point.

Du Xiao thought in his heart, he has stayed in a wool, Lao Tzu is not enough money to buy rune paper now, Lao Tzu is here to collect the accounts, and if he is interested, he will pay back the money quickly.

"Debt collection? I don't remember anyone who owes money to the inn. The innkeeper squinted and said quibly.

"Jibao Zhai, the thirty-fifth year of the first Chinese New Year's Eve, spring. Zhu Dan borrowed seventy taels of silver, set up this IOU, and returned it five years later. Du Xiao memorized the words recorded in the account book word by word, how could he fight an unprepared battle.

After hearing this, the innkeeper's face suddenly sank, and it was difficult to continue to deny it. This is the IOU he set up at that time, I thought that after so many years, Jibao Zhai did not send anyone to collect this loan, and planned to get away with it.

"It turned out to be the little brother of Jibao Zhai, disrespectful and disrespectful, you see my old bones, I have forgotten about it." The innkeeper's attitude changed suddenly, and he behaved respectfully to Du Xiao, not daring to make a mistake.

"It's good to remember, then it's time to pay back a hundred taels of silver." Du Xiao said indifferently.

"What?! A hundred taels of silver? I only borrowed seventy taels at the beginning, are you taking advantage of the fire to rob? Be careful with me reporting to the police. The innkeeper scolded angrily, obviously it was only seventy taels, but it was forcibly raised to one hundred taels, this seemingly weak scholar was too much, did he really think he was a bully?

"Boss, you're really joking, do you think that after all these years of non-payment of debts, Jibao Zhai hasn't settled this account with you?" In fact, these are all made up by Du Xiao himself, and he is scaring this powerful Zhu Danren.

"It is only natural to repay debts. If the debt is not repaid, the sky will thunder. I'm sure the boss should have heard of this. Du Xiao said flickeringly, but he felt that this sentence was quite reasonable, he hated the kind of guy who didn't pay his debts the most in his life, and he simply abandoned all morals and humanity.

"Okay, but I won't be able to raise a hundred taels of silver so quickly, and it will take some time." Zhu Danren gritted his teeth and agreed, in his eyes, Du Xiao was a demon who ate people and didn't spit out bones.

"I hope that Boss Zhu is a person who keeps his promises, and I will come to pick it up tomorrow night at the latest, otherwise I don't know what kind of extreme behavior I will do." Du Xiao intimidated him, Du Xiao was also in a hurry to use this money, how could he let him raise it slowly, and Du Xiao didn't believe that the huge inn would not have a hundred taels of silver.

"You're threatening me?!"

"I think you misunderstood, it's just a kind reminder." Du Xiao didn't continue to stimulate him, but after putting away the ledger, he turned around and left the Yunlai Inn.

Du Xiao still felt that this ledger should be kept first, after all, in this world, Du Xiao didn't know how long he would stay, even if he ran out of entanglements in the future, Du Xiao could still rely on this ledger to maintain some daily expenses, such as the cost of buying rune paper.

Although this money is a bit like ill-gotten wealth for Du Xiao, it is better than his thick skin, and Du Xiao has no choice but to do it, to survive in such a huge world background, with his identity as a scholar, it is not easy.

The next day, Du Xiao came to the Yunlai Inn as scheduled, and the one hundred taels of silver from Baihuahua were placed in front of Du Xiao. His eyes glowed golden, and it was the first time he had seen so many silver taels. With this money, he is estimated to be one of the richest people in Anning Town.

"Boss Zhu is really a person who keeps his promises, and I admire him." Du Xiao pretended to say respectfully, he knew that Boss Zhu had already hated himself in his heart. Du Xiao didn't care, even if he extorted thirty taels of silver from him fiercely.

"Take your money and leave the inn, you're not welcome here." Boss Zhu said viciously, how could he not feel distressed if he lost a hundred taels of silver overnight.

"Hehe, Boss Zhu, why are you doing this, you are just paying off the debts you owe." Du Xiao said mockingly, then ignored Boss Zhu's face and left leisurely.

......

"Guest officer, I have prepared the Dao talismans you asked for before, you can take a look." The boss of the talisman stall took out a stack of talismans from the wooden box and handed it to Du Xiao.

Du Xiao counted it, but there were twenty of them, and when these runes were in the palm of his hand just now, a cool breath came into his body, it seems that these Dao runes are not fakes.

"Okay, here's fifty taels of silver, you can take it." Du Xiao handed over the balance to the boss of the stall. Du Xiao was distressed, he had blackmailed someone just now, and now he was blackmailed back.

Du Xiao hid the talisman behind his clothes and asked the owner of the stall. "By the way, I want to ask where is Lanruo Temple?"

"Lanruo Temple? What are you going to do there? It's a place where demons gather, so I advise you not to go. When he heard Lan Ruosi, his face turned pale, as if he had encountered a terrifying ghost.

"I have some important things to go to Lanruo Temple to do, so I bother you to tell me the location of Lanruo Temple." Du Xiao said very sincerely, if he had a choice, Du Xiao didn't want to go to this Lanruo Temple. But the main task issued by the director still has to be completed, otherwise he can only stay in this movie world forever.

"If you want to die, I won't stop you, three and a half miles east here, it's Lanruo Temple. At most, these talismans can keep you safe for a while, but you still have to remember to be careful, and in case of danger, you must leave Lanruo Temple as soon as possible, so as not to lose your life for it. The boss sighed, he didn't agree with Du Xiao's behavior, which was undoubtedly an act of sending him to death.

"By the way, and pay attention to the wild wolves in the mountains, they are bloodthirsty and ferocious, especially at night, you should be careful to avoid them." The boss kindly admonished the weak scholar.

"Thank you." After Du Xiao said goodbye, he picked up the book basket alone and went to the ghostly Ruolan Ghost Temple. Du Xiao already knew about the Rakshasa Dryad he was about to meet, and it was precisely because of this foreseen danger that he always had no score in his heart, wondering if Yan Chixia would come to the rescue in time.

People are always afraid of the unknown, and it is easy to be afraid of the dangers that have been foreseen.
