Chapter 487: Tang Street Rules
The water surface of Liantang is as calm as a mirror, there is not much wind, and the unmanned wooden boat floats back along the calm water.
There seemed to be some magical force pushing it forward, and the bow of the ship broke through the water, forming ripples like arrows.
Faced with such a strange scene, everyone on the shore began to quickly retreat, vigilantly watching the wooden boat floating back.
In the history of Tang Street, there was once an unmanned boat that seemed to float back for no reason, and as a result, many people died in Tang Street that time.
The wooden boat hit the shore of the lotus pond and never moved again.
For a while, no one dared to pass over easily, just stood from a distance and watched, and Zhou Fan was no exception.
After a short while, on the premise that the merchant and the steward of the family were willing to pay a reward, three bold warriors cautiously approached the wooden boat.
All three of them were fully armed, and all kinds of anti-evil talismans were attached to their bodies or held in their hands.
When they got closer, they didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, and then looked inside the ship.
All three of them froze for a moment.
"What's going on? What do you see, and if you're not dead, you'll answer. A steward of the family shouted at the three men.
The three warriors seemed to have just reacted, they turned around and shook their heads, the faces of the three of them were a little gloomy, and one of them said, "There are five heads on the board." ”
Five blood-drenched human heads, their eyes wide open in fear, seemed to have seen something extremely terrible before they died.
Soon, another martial artist who had lived in Tang Street for a long time walked over and glanced at it, and he shook his head with a look of regret, "It's Gao Tian. ”
The 'high heavens and them' in his mouth are one of the two corpse recovery teams that have not returned from the pond this morning.
Whispers rang out from the crowd.
Only then did Zhou Fan know that the corpse salvage team led by Gao Tian was also considered to be extraordinary in the corpse salvage team that came out of the pond today, and Gao Tian's strength alone had reached the marrow washing stage.
It's just that such an extraordinary corpse salvage team actually died in the lotus pond.
After the identity was confirmed, no one walked over to watch, after all, no one knew if the ship or the five heads would have a curse or a poisonous trap.
"Burn it. Someone in the crowd spoke.
This is the usual way to deal with Tong Street.
The four warriors glanced at each other, and one of them threw out a talisman.
The talisman landed on the ship, and with a snort, it exploded into a fire, and the flames spread across the ship, and black smoke rose from it.
Only then did the crowd of onlookers slowly disperse.
Although I feel that it is a pity, the warriors who dare to come to Liantang originally lived a life of licking blood from the knife edge, and dead people are a common thing.
In history, it is not uncommon for people in Tangjie to die overnight, but the warriors gathered here like moths to a fire for the lucrative income of Liantang, and Tangjie will eventually be rebuilt.
The touching story of wealth is being played out all the time.
Zhou Fan left the shore, and the sky also darkened.
The wooden poles on the pond street lit up with blue lanterns, and the entire pond street was shrouded in a faint blue light.
The dark blue lantern is engraved with runes to dispel shadows and monsters.
These lanterns were donated by merchants and families, and in return they were qualified to purchase materials in Liantang on the east bank.
In the same way, if other merchants and families want to come in, they must pay a part of this money, of course, provided that those merchants and family stewards on Tang Street agree to accept it.
Zhou Fan took his brother and spent some money to rent a small house.
There are no big inns in Tang Street, and people live in some simple houses.
There are even some poor people who will get together with three or four people.
However, as long as they are not too poor, warriors are not willing to share a house with other people.
After all, sometimes it's very inconvenient when you want to cultivate.
After Zhou Fan briefly cleaned up the house, he sat down cross-legged to eat.
The old man was also bowing his head to eat the food that Zhou Fan bought back.
Under the dim oil lamp, you can hear the noise of the street outside.
Zhou Fan finished eating silently, and then he cultivated, and he used the Blood Melting Secret Method to absorb the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi to stabilize his mid-blood exchange realm.
In the middle of the night, the streets become quiet.
With a bang, the door was kicked open, and a man with a strong body and a fleshy face rushed in, "Boy, I heard that you are new here......
A flash of light lit up in the room, and before he could finish his sentence, his head was broken.
The head and headless body were thrown out of the house, and when the head and headless body fell to the ground, dozens of copper plates were thrown out of the house and spilled on the ground.
The door that was about to collapse was closed again.
The eight warriors surrounding the house on the street looked at the detached corpse on the ground, blood flowing from their heads and cranial cavities, and their faces changed dramatically.
Any martial artist who comes to Tang Street alone will inevitably be targeted.
Especially when the owner of the room was just a teenager.
So in the middle of the night, they came to loot and get a piece of the pie, but even if they seem to be just teenagers, this kind of thing is still risky, not everyone has the courage to be the first to step forward, but there will always be someone who dares to be the first to eat crabs.
Now the crab eater is lying on the ground, with his head cut off.
"Good...... ......Come on," one of the warriors stammered, "you...... Guys...... See...... Is it there?"
The other seven shook their heads, they didn't see what was happening, but as soon as they entered, their heads and bodies were thrown out.
"He seems to have exploded into a high stage, right?" asked a warrior standing on the right side of the house in a low voice.
The eight people were silent, and the people who rushed in seemed reckless, but those who dared to do such things would not be careless at all, that is to say, the outbreak of the high stage could not even block a move, which made their eyes show a look of fear.
Seven of the eight turned away without hesitation.
The remaining one hesitated, he lowered his head and leaned over to pick up the copper plate that was spilled on the ground, this is the rule of Tang Street, as long as the corpse on the ground has money, someone is willing to collect the corpse.
If you don't collect the body and only take the money, you will be expelled from Tang Street.
As for the talisman bag on the corpse, the money bag had already been taken away by the people in the house when it was thrown out, otherwise it would not be his turn to collect the corpse.
After picking up the copper plate on the ground, he found a sack, put the head and body on the ground into the sack, and looked at the house that was not moving, before swallowing his spit, and gently dragged the sack away from the place.
Generally, such a corpse disposal will first try to give it to the other party's friend, provided that the other party has a friend...... That would get some money from his friend.
If the other party has no friends or friends don't want to accept it, then wait for dawn and throw it into the wild.
For him, he won't make a fortune tonight, but it's good to make some hard-earned money.
He hummed a little song, if you want to make a fortune, you have to take a big risk, and hard-earned money only needs some effort.
Small money is just effort, but big money can lose your life.
