Chapter 187: Expropriation and Expropriation
The innkeeper only has a smart second-floor cultivation, and he doesn't dare to be disobedient to the people who come, so he smiled and said: "There are only a few people staying in the small shop this month, can the money be graced for a few days this month, there are really not so many spirit stones at hand at the moment!"
"No, no, no! You can't break the rules! The shops on this street have to pay a monthly fee every month, which my ancestor stipulated last year, and if you pay the money, you will continue to operate, and if you don't pay, you will get out of here quickly!"
The innkeeper was helpless, took out thirty spirit stones from the storage bag and held them in his hand, and was about to hand them over, but he was snatched by the Lianjia monk, and he couldn't stop cursing in his mouth: "Obviously rich, but still pretending to be poor here, delaying Lao Tzu's efforts in vain!
After the three of them left, the innkeeper saw Yi Xuan standing aside, and said with a wry smile: "Let the guest officer laugh!
Yi Xuan walked to the counter and looked at the boss: "Naturally, I want to stay in the hotel! Open an upper room for me, if you want to be secluded, stay for five days first!"
The boss immediately replied: "Distinguished guest, there are two spirit stones per day in the upper room of our store, and the guest officer has to pay twelve spirit stones." ”
"You boss, you can't settle accounts if you bully me? Five days obviously only need ten spirit stones, what is the use of the extra two spirit stones? Could it be that the boss wants to make up for the monthly money just now?" Yi Xuan quipped.
The boss hurriedly confessed: "Guest officer, don't dare, don't dare! The two extra spirit stones are the poll tax of the hotel, and they will still be handed over to the Lian family in the end!"
"Oh, there is a charge for entering the city, and there is also a charge for staying in the hotel, this is a good calculation!" Yi Xuan said tiredly.
"Guest officer, it must be the first time to come to this Lingyue County, don't you dare to talk nonsense, there are many eyes and ears in the family, be careful of the trouble coming out of your mouth!" The innkeeper was so frightened that he hurriedly stopped Yi Xuan, so as not to be implicated.
"What is the origin of this Lian family, so unscrupulous and tyrannical that no one can resist?" Yi Xuan was unmoved and asked the boss for news.
"Hey! Even the ancestors of the family have cultivated to a high level, and the family monks are flourishing, and even the Jade Academy of the Eight Great Sects is helpless! But it has hurt us who live here as loose cultivators and ordinary people, no matter what kind of business they are engaged in, they have been exploited by them to the point that there is not much left. At the beginning of the period, there were a few scattered cultivators in the Qi cultivation period who took the lead in making trouble, and then they disappeared inexplicably, most of them ...... Hey, don't talk about it, guest officer, it's better to have more than one thing, you better leave this place as soon as you finish your business!" the more the boss talked, the more desolate it became, and finally he hung his head and said nothing.
Yi Xuan did a good job alone in the room, thinking in his heart that this Lian family style was so bad, and he was tyrannical about the nearby scattered cultivation, which can be described as angry and resentful, and his revenge on him was also regarded as eliminating harm for the people, and if there was a chance, he would definitely uproot it.
That night, Yi Xuan changed into the night short brown produced by Xuan Tianchuan, gently lifted the window facing the street, and jumped from the room to the street behind the inn with a turnover. The small street was pitch black and empty, Yi Xuan summoned the earth incarnation and asked him to dive underground with him, and fled in the direction of the Lianjia manor outside the city.
Lianjia Manor covers an area of nearly 1,000 acres, just like a small city, the same city walls and city gates are also built, and they are heavily guarded, and they can't be mixed in if they are not Lianjia personnel or led by them, Yi Xuan just wanted to escape from the underground through the incarnation of the earth system, and before his body crossed the city wall, he touched a formation, and suddenly the alarm was loud, and dozens of Lianjia monks ran out of the house and patrolled around. Yi Xuan had to take advantage of the chaos to retreat into the woods outside the manor to hide, and after a while, he sent several teams of monks from the Lianjia manor to patrol the vicinity, and a team of five monks walked in the direction of the woods where Yi Xuan was.
"You said that somewhere would someone break into the manor in the middle of the night, I think it's probably some wild cats and dogs or something, the head of the house has to make a fuss and send us out to inspect, I'm sleeping soundly!" a short and fat disciple of the Lian family complained as he walked.
"That's not necessarily, our Lian family has offended a lot of people in the past few years, maybe someone will come to deliberately retaliate, in short, there is no harm in being careful!" The disciple on the side persuaded him to inspect carefully, but he yawned listlessly.
When all five disciples walked into the depths of the forest, a big tree suddenly cracked open from it, revealing Yi Xuan's figure, and the big tree rolled on the ground, revealing a wood-based incarnation that turned into a green outfit.
"Xiao Lu, you keep up with the five of them, see the opportunity to take them down in one fell swoop, be careful not to take them by surprise and don't make the slightest noise!" Yi Xuan stayed in place to observe the movement and arranged for him to go and arrest people. After hearing this, the wood incarnation first blinked, a naughty smile appeared on his face, and after nodding, he just leaned on the big tree next to him and disappeared without a trace.
Yi Xuan once again sent the incarnation of the earth system back to the vicinity of the Lianjia Manor to check the situation, and the inside of the manor gradually returned to calm after the hustle and bustle, but the number of people patrolling in front of the door had doubled compared to just now, so he asked the avatar to turn his head and follow the other team of Lianjia monks who were out on patrol.
The pair of monks were heading in the direction of Lingyue County, and Yi Xuan followed the Earth Incarnation and hung far behind him, until he walked in the direction of less than five miles away from the county seat. Yi Xuan suddenly increased his speed, and at the same time made the earth system incarnate difficult, turning a large area of the road into rolling quicksand, and even the family monks were caught off guard, and they all fell into it, and before they could shout, only one head was left on the ground, and the entire body was buried in the soil. The earth incarnation stunned them all with one punch, pulled them out of the ground like a turnip, and threw them aside to wait for Yi Xuan to come.
After Yi Xuan came over, together with the earth incarnation, he dragged all five Lianjia monks into the woods on the side of the road, picked one of the youngest-looking monks to wake up, and began to interrogate against the moonlight.
"What's your name?" Yi Xuan asked in a strange voice.
The Lianjia monk was at a loss, and it took him a long time to react: "Who are you, why did you sneak attack me, etc.?" Do you know that we are all children of the Lian family, and if you offend us, the Lian family is as good-looking as you!"
Yi Xuan smiled strangely: "The old man is just going to trouble you family! A few old guys are not here, it's better to find you juniors to vent your anger first! Since you don't want to say it well, then ask another question!" After speaking, he swept the earth incarnation with his eyes.
The earth system comprehends the body and mind, grabs the feet of the Lianjia monk, and inserts it into the soil like an upside-down onion, and the Lianjia monk is out of breath until he is suffocated, until he is suffocated and trembling all over his body, he is pulled out of the soil by the soil incarnation, and before he has time to mix and breathe, he is inserted into the soil again, and after several times in a row, the Lianjia monk is dying, and when he is pulled out of the soil for the last time, he exclaims: "I say, I say it all!" Only then was he thrown aside and gasped for breath.
"I knew this was the case, why did I have to be stubborn just now, I had to suffer this flesh and skin to be willing to confess honestly!" Yi Xuan asked in a strange voice.
