Chapter 59

~8 min read 1,584 words

Carrying four jars of Zhuyeqing, Liu Xiaolou was very surprised. They had also thought about the idea of reselling spirit wine, but they couldn't get so many goods. Now they couldn't buy spirit wine in the Tianmen market at all, and wanted to find Wei Hongqing to see if there was a way, but they couldn't even see Wei Hongqing.

They didn't even know that Wei Hongqing was already the new owner of Hongji Restaurant.

It seems that Brother Wei still treats people differently inside and outside, Liu Xiaolou couldn't help but feel a little complacent. Since this was the case, he naturally couldn't tell them about Wei Hongqing, just told them that he collected these wines very hard, ran from house to house, and was purely a hard work, earning a leg-running money.

In this way, Zuo Gaofeng and Tan Bazhang didn't delve into it. For these four jars of wine, Liu Xiaolou was busy for six full days, which was really a hard-earned leg-running money.

Hou Hou Guanshi was very satisfied with these four jars of wine and collected them on the spot, and Liu Xiaolou got sixty taels of gold. But he also proposed to pay with spirit stones next time, because he had no more cash on him—calculated, he paid Liu Xiaolou nearly a thousand taels of silver in gold and silver.

Liu Xiaolou didn't dare to delay. It was impossible for the Qingyu Sect and the sects in western Hunan to have conflicts for a long time. No one knew how long the window of time was, and it was definitely not the time to be lazy. It was one trip more than one trip.

Sixty taels of gold are worth six hundred and sixty or seven hundred taels of current silver, which can buy eight jars of Bamboo Leaf Green wine, but Hongji Restaurant can only produce one jar a day for him, and only gives it when seeing people, so he can only wait bitterly.

During these days of waiting, Liu Xiaolou was not idle. He was thinking about how to get close to Hou Hou Guanshi. But to be honest, the two were not familiar, and the only thing he knew was that Hou Hou Guanshi liked to buy meat.

So Liu Xiaolou visited the Tianmen market, wanting to see if he could buy some. But the rare meat sold in the Tianmen market was ridiculously expensive. For example, the lowest-grade black mountain spirit piglet needed three spirit stones, or the seven-tailed wild goose from the Tianxing Peak in the north, which was high-end, and one was twenty spirit stones. For Liu Xiaolou, he really couldn't afford to give it away.

He simply traveled between Mount Wuling and the Tianmen market, searched for prey in the mountains during the day, and went to Hongji Restaurant to eat and get wine at night.

He went for two consecutive days and gained nothing, until the third time he went, he saw a rare green-feathered pheasant. This green-feathered pheasant was extremely flexible in action and sensitive in perception. In Liu Xiaolou's eyes, its fighting ability was almost no less than that of the big white goose. Although it couldn't be called a genuine spirit bird, it was relatively rare, and it was appropriate to give it to Hou Hou Guanshi as a gift.

Regardless of whether the meat is delicious or not, at least eat something fresh!

So he tracked for more than two hours and finally took down the green-feathered pheasant.

Seeing that the sky was about to be evening, Liu Xiaolou hurriedly walked back, who knew that he suddenly encountered a bandit cutting the path on the road.

There were three bandits in total, all wearing bamboo hats and black scarves, surrounding them from the cover, and intercepted Liu Xiaolou.

Liu Xiaolou's first reaction was that the big water washed the Dragon King Temple. Would these three be fellow Daoists from Mount Wulong? There were hundreds of loose cultivators on Mount Wulong. He had just debuted for a short time, and he didn't know more than half of them. It was inevitable to misunderstand, so he reported his family: "I am from Mount Wulong..."

Before he finished speaking, the three bandits had already started, and each drew their magic tools to hack and kill. The leader said fiercely: "No matter where you are, just bury it here today!"

No rules!

Liu Xiaolou had to respond to the battle helplessly. As soon as he moved, he felt very strenuous. The three of them didn't have high cultivation, but they steadily suppressed him by a head, roughly at the fourth or fifth level of Qi Refinement. The only problem was that the shots were not ruthless enough. Just this point, he knew they were not fellow Daoists from Mount Wulong.

Although the other party's shots were not ruthless, Liu Xiaolou's cultivation was low, and the Three Mystical Sword Technique didn't have much power. It was plain and unremarkable to display, and he was in danger after a few rounds of parrying. If it were last year, he would probably have planted here, and the Three Mystical Sect would have been extinct from then on, but today, he had an extra means of saving his life.

In a hurry, he took off the array plate jade token from his waist, threw it on the ground, sensed the array plate with his heart, and the Lin Yuan Profound Stone Array was triggered immediately.

This was Liu Xiaolou's first time using an array to fight the enemy. Although he had asked Lord Xingde to help verify the power of the array that day, it was different from actual combat after all, so he was still uneasy in his heart.

The scene in front of the three bandits changed suddenly, as if they were in the courtyard of a wealthy family, appearing in the pavilion by the pool.

"Illusion Array!" The leader immediately shouted: "Two brothers, explore the array!"

Illusion Array, to put it bluntly, is a blindfold, making the entrants have hallucinations. The actual damage effect is not obvious. Just break through the array eye, and you can easily break out of the illusion array. As for where the array eye is, it depends on the cognitive level of the entrants.

Of course, even if you don't recognize the array eye, if your strength is much higher than the owner of the array, you can also break the array by force and get out.

The other two agreed and immediately began to explore all parts of the courtyard.

The leader flew out the magic tool spear, injected true essence into it, and threw it to all parts of the courtyard to test the reality of the array; the other two walked in the courtyard. No matter how they walked, they couldn't walk out of the scope of the courtyard, and couldn't walk out of the white wall that looked not high.

The three bandits obviously didn't understand the array, and naturally couldn't find the location of the array eye, but everyone understood the truth of breaking it by brute force. Although they couldn't find the location of the array eye for a while, they were not panicked.

They had been following Liu Xiaolou for a long time, and made a rough judgment on his cultivation level—not exceeding the fourth level of Qi Refinement. With such a low cultivation, he couldn't support a too profound array, so what are you afraid of?

The spear was like a dragon, first hitting the pavilion, then hitting the fish pond, then hitting the willow tree, then hitting the stone bridge, and then the side room. Lightning flashed and thunder roared, and the power was magnificent. After hitting it all over, I felt that several places were not the array eye, so I stopped and thought about it.

"Zima, Huang Zilu, is there anything unusual?" The leader of the bandits looked at all parts of the courtyard while asking loudly.

"Two brothers?"

"Zima? Huang Zilu?"

After asking several times, there was no response. The leader of the bandits suddenly became suspicious. He clearly saw the two brothers enter the side room one after another, why didn't they respond?

He was very uneasy, immediately held the spear and jumped out of the pool pavilion, fully guarded and went to the side room across the fish pond.

When approaching the side room, I felt that the sky was gradually dimming, but a few steps away, it turned from day to night. Paused his steps, the bandit leader found that the change of sky light had no effect on him, so he reached out to push the room door, and the room door creaked open...

The bandit leader was stunned. The two brothers were sitting on the embroidery stools, staring at the end of the hall, their faces were red, their hands were tightly clenched... um...

"Zima! Huang Zilu!"

These two brothers didn't seem to hear it, still red-faced and red-eared, their bodies slightly arched, struggling with themselves.

The bandit leader was very strange, couldn't help but poke his head into the side room to look. With this look, he was also stunned.

Then, there was an extra embroidery stool in the side room, an extra person on the embroidery stool, and the three brothers looked at the huge bed at the end of the side room with relish, their bodies arched from time to time, like three big shrimps...
