Chapter 10: Return to Tung Fun Place
Following.
Liu Hui got up early in the morning, and after a random set of punches outside the door, he went to fetch a bucket of water to clean himself up seriously, he was going out today.
The clothes on his body that he wore from the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce had been worn for several days. Although there are still a few sets of medicine boy robes at the head of his bed, how can he be willing to wear ordinary medicine boy robes when he wears high-end goods that are refreshing and not dusty, have no peculiar smell, and have a good-looking style, and besides, he is not a medicine boy.
So he decided to go out and find a tailor shop, make a few more sets according to the style of the clothes on his body, and by the way, go to see the house that now belongs to him and originally belonged to Cui Hu.
That night, Ji Lin led people to quickly take over Tongle Fang, which did him a great favor.
Not long after he left, a large number of pretenders who fished in troubled waters tried to sneak into Tongle Fang and Cui Hu's house, which contained Cui Hu's savings over the years and the income of Tongle Fang that day.
Among the guards brought by Ji Lin were many Quenching Realm monks, even if they were the lowest-level monks, they were much more powerful than ordinary Jianghu martial artists, and after forcefully repelling several waves of pretenders who broke through, leaving behind more than a dozen corpses, the scene was finally controlled. Later, the eldest lady of the Yin family, who received the news, also brought people to come, and after counting the belongings overnight, the eldest lady Yin left with half of the value of the belongings, and left people to continue to be stationed there.
Liu Hui only learned the news of that night from Ji Lin the next day, and he was not angry that the eldest lady of the Yin family had taken half of the belongings, but was surprised that she had only taken half of them. In that case, it would not be too much for her to take it all, after all, those belongings were all guarded by her, and Miss Yin also left him the most valuable deed of ownership, which was brought to him by Ji Lin the next day, and is still carrying it on him, and it is not counted in the remaining half of the property.
This made him full of affection for the young lady Yin he had never met.
Liu Hui was very happy, as the head of Xingyao Village, on the first day he walked out of the desert (not counting the month of coma), he laid the first pot of gold for Xingyao Village, plus a mansion.
He decided to go to Tung Lok Fang to get some money first.
When he went out, Luo Fat, who was in the same room, hadn't gotten up yet.
Thinking of Luo Fat, Liu Hui unconsciously smiled bitterly.
That guy was unlucky, he was the only one of the more than a hundred medicine boys in the Medicine Boy Annex.
The month he was in a coma was the most comfortable month he lived, and now that he woke up and didn't need him to take care of him, he began to drink all kinds of new potions that Yin Qiluo had tried to concoct. If there is an abnormal reaction, the person who comes to deliver the medicine will watch and ignore it, just make a record, and if there is no abnormal reaction, he will still say how he feels. Several times he came back, he saw that the guy had changed, sometimes his eyes were green, sometimes his head was as big as a basket, and sometimes his body was as soft as a noodle...... But the next day he was back to normal. Once he saw Luo Pang fall down on the spot after drinking a bowl of medicine, he was furious and asked the maid who delivered the medicine to take him to Yin Qiluo and ask her to stop this inhumane drug test. As a result, the maid looked at him like a fool, and told him that Luo Pang was voluntary, and he would not worry about his life, but would be good for him.
Only then did he know that this Luo Fat was a [Medicine Devourer], this kind of person has a special physique, they are invincible to poison, and they need to swallow a large amount of medicinal spiritual materials to survive. He was stunned at the time, and when he came back to his senses, he sighed that Luo Fat had a strong physique and was scorned by the maid who delivered the medicine. The medicine eaters have no other way out than to sell themselves to the pharmacist Danshi to test the medicine, their physique cannot be cultivated, there is no elixir to maintain, and they may die violently at any time.
After knowing the truth, Liu Hui couldn't help but sympathize with Luo Fat, although the daily test of medicine would not cause death, but the pain of immature medicine should still be bearable! He couldn't help him, he could only pray that the medicine that Yin Qiluo sent every time was not too outrageous.
Baicao Garden is a part of the Yin family's manor, and it is clear with the Yin Mansion, but you don't need to go through the Yin family's main house to go out from the Baicao Garden, it has an independent entrance.
Liu Hui walked through the elixir garden and came to the gate, and the guards guarding the gate hurriedly bent down to signal to him: "Senior Liu, is this going out?"
The concept of the strong being respected, he didn't have such a strong feeling in the original Xingyao Village, and within a few days of coming out, he found that the people he usually came into contact with, whether men, women, or children, were all referred to as "seniors" and "adults", and his tone was also full of humility, this was just a small town in the secular world, and in those monk cities, this concept was probably more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
"Hmm, do I need to review it?" Liu Hui nodded in response, he knew that because of Yin Fang, Yin Qiluo ordered to strengthen the management of the people of Baicao Garden, and usually those medicine children who entered and left Baicao Garden had to go through strict scrutiny.
"Senior Liu naturally doesn't need to be reviewed, please!" The guards hurriedly opened the door, signaling that he could enter and exit freely, Liu Hui's courage had long been spread among the Yin family's guards, although these two people had not seen him in person, they also knew his name.
The sea of turquoise sand was a terrifying forbidden place in the eyes of the monks, but to the ordinary people living near it, it was a beautiful and different kind of desert, even more lovely than ordinary deserts. It will not erode outward, nor will it bring sandstorms, although there are sand ghosts at night, but as long as they do not enter, it is still safe, and it is common sense that sand ghosts cannot leave the blue sand sea.
Because of this, the architectural style of Lansha Town is mostly beautiful and practical brick and wood structures, and there are few durable but expensive earth-and-stone buildings.
Looking at the small buildings with white walls and tiles on both sides of the street, listening to the merchants on the street hawking and pedestrians chatting, he couldn't help but have a feeling that this is life.
Abba, Roy, they'll love it too!
The signboard that was originally hanging outside the door of the square had been taken off, and before he entered, he heard a few sporadic shouts from inside:
"Hurry up, buy it and leave!"
"Big, big ......"
"Small, ......"
Someone is gambling in it? Who could it be?
Liu Hui pushed the door in surprise, and saw seven or eight men dressed in the uniform uniforms of the Yin family's guards, pouting and lying on a long table and shouting. He opened the door with a loud voice, but no one looked back.
"Tongle Fang has closed its doors and changed owners, gambling money to go somewhere else!" an impatient voice came from the crowd.
"Hurry up, I'll definitely win this one, this one isn't big, I'll cut off my head and use it as a flask for you!"
"Who is rare about your leaky head, hehe, Zhan Tou, you will owe me ten taels of gold if you lose this again, and the good ten taels of gold will be paid with that medium-grade yuan stone!"
"Hehe, Zhan Tou, this is all against your head, I suspect you have to put all the parts of your body against today!"
"Haha-" A group of people heckled.
"! Lao Tzu is about to turn the tables! Hurry up and open Lao Tzu-"
Liu Hui smiled, didn't make a sound, and stepped forward silently, this group of guys who were playing were not even aware of him.
A small man with an excited look and a shrewd face pressed his hands on the sieve. At the urging of the crowd, he put away one hand, and with the other he held the lid of the sieve cup, and slowly opened it along one side. Across from him sat a red-faced man, his face full of nervousness, and as the sieve cup slowly opened, he lifted his buttocks, his head poked forward desperately, and shouted the number of points he wanted:
"Big Big ......"
"Tiny ......"
The red-faced man shouted louder with the first dice with a count of "three", and then another dice with a value of "one".
Whewโ
The red-faced man sat back, basically hopeless, while the little man opposite him was ecstatic, and was about to remove the lid of the sieve cup and declare his victory, when an abrupt voice sounded:
"Ahem! You can't do this!" The sudden disturbance was like thunder!
Whoop -
The little man who was about to lift the lid of the sieve cup, trembling, pushed the whole sieve cup out. The red-faced man jumped up from his seat, turned and got up in one go. Liu Hui also found that when he turned around, he didn't forget to push the edge of the table with his fingers, and the tumbling sieve cup didn't stop, so he rolled again.
"Willow ...... Senior Liu, assemble, assemble quickly!" The red-faced man turned around and recognized it as Liu Hui, who had met that night, his expression was embarrassed, and his eyes were full of gratitude.
Everyone agreed with a bang, including the little man sitting in the village, all lined up with the order and stood behind the red-faced man.
At this time, a dice hit the ground, rolling right at Liu Hui's feet, still spinning.
Liu Hui bent down to pick it up.
"Senior Liu, we ......" Zhan Suifeng's face became even redder, they helped people guard, but they didn't do their duty to start a gamble, and they didn't notice when someone came behind them.
The red-faced man's name is Zhan Suifeng, and he is also a squad leader, and his cultivation is similar to Ji Lin, Yin Qixue left his squad to help guard this mansion, and Ji Lin once mentioned it to him.
"It's not a big deal, but remember to leave two guards outside the door next time, this situation today is actually very dangerous, Cui Hu escaped, and it is likely to be killed again." Liu Hui smiled, patted Zhan Suifeng's shoulder, put the dice in his hand and walked to the back of the gambling hall.
Zhan Suifeng touched the back of his head, not knowing what to do for a while.
"Zhan Tou, are you still playing?" The little man who was sitting in the village before was ruined by Liu Hui's sudden voice, and his heart was a pity, but now seeing Liu Hui leaving, it didn't seem to prohibit them from gambling, so he hurriedly came to Zhan Suifeng and asked.
"Play with your mother's head, roll everywhere and patrol!" Zhan shouted angrily as he threw a white Yuan Stone in front of him.
The little man was overjoyed, picked up the Yuanshi, and ran out.
......
Cui Hu's house is very similar to the ancient Chinese Sanjin Courtyard, the last time he came was directly from the gambling hall to the front yard, and then along the Hanging Flower Gate all the way to the inner courtyard. This time, I changed my identity again, and naturally I took a look at the front yard, the inner yard, the east and west wings, the study, and the main room very carefully.
"Damn, if this is worth at least eight figures on Earth, it will take some effort to come to the other world and become a house family!" Liu Hui muttered quietly, his heart fluttering.
He took out the key to the main room from his bosom, unlocked it, and pushed the door in.
The room consists of a living room and a bedroom, and after a general look at the living room, you enter the bedroom.
"The secret room switch that Ji Lin said should be here, right?" Liu Hui fumbled for a while on the solid wood display shelf that occupied one wall in the bedroom, holding a wide-mouth blue and white porcelain vase in both hands, turning it gently.
With a rumbling sound, the shelves arch open a two-meter-wide entrance.
"This machine is so exquisitely done, it has been found out!" Liu Hui sighed, and flashed in without much emotion.
This secret room is built underground, the passage extends down, and there are moonstones embedded in the left and right sides of the passage, this kind of luminous stone is not valuable, and there are several in his and Luo Fat's room. This is Cui Hu's private treasure room, and there is no dangerous mechanism, going down about ten meters, turning to a parallel passage.
Liu Hui saw a stone door with a big hole at the end of the passage.
"It's a pity that this stone gate is rebuilt by a craftsman another day!"
Liu Hui drilled through the hole in the stone door, and what caught his eye was a stone secret room of seventy or eighty square meters, decorated with large night pearls on all sides, making this secret room much brighter than the passage outside.
The chamber is lined with large and small rows of metal chests and wooden boxes.
Liu Hui opened them one by one and looked at them roughly, and it contained half of the belongings left by Yin Qixue, he didn't expect it to be so much.
On the top lid of a box, he found a ledger.
It contains a record of all the belongings found in this house, divided into categories, and the memory is very detailed. Most of them are gold and silver jewelry, but there are also calligraphy and painting antiquities.
The special categories are listed: five hundred and eight low-level yuan stones, thirty-seven intermediate yuan stones, there should be no high-level yuan stones, and there is also a set of low-level magic weapons obsidian arm rings, which he knows, it is the steel ring that flew out of Cui Hu's wrist to attack him, but he was not very interested in this thing, and then looked down, and the rest were some refining tools and refining materials, and he didn't understand it, so he glanced over.
Yin Qixue also wrote down the things she took away, most of them were gold and silver tickets, and there were a few picture scrolls, which were worth about the same as the boxes left here, probably for ease of carrying.
At the end of the ledger, there are a few lines of small print:
Inheriting her brother's intentions, the little woman took fifty percent of the money in her account.
Order, the little woman ordered Zhan Suifeng to take care of the house for her brother for half a month, and then paid the following honorarium for her brother from her brother's account, Zhan Suifeng Intermediate Yuan Stone, gold fifty, and the remaining seven people are all low-grade Yuan Stone, gold twenty.
There are also three elegant and agile small characters at the tail line - Yin Qixue.
"Do you want to guard it for half a month? I don't know if it can be renewed after it expires!" Liu Hui closed the account book, found a wooden box to mark and put it in.
He took out two money bags, put all the eighteen middle-grade yuan stones and two hundred and eighty-three low-grade yuan stones that he valued the most, and then put them in his arms, this thing can not only be used as currency, but also cultivation materials, and he urgently needs it now.
He didn't stay long, packed some gold and silver, and went out of the secret room.
After restoring the display shelf that was used as a cover for the entrance to the secret room, he was about to lock the door and leave, when suddenly a figure flashed in!
"Who?"
