dead body search

Chapter 299

Cangyuanfang City.

Refining Workshop.

Du Liniang, the Law Enforcement Hall of Lianyouzong, stopped Hou Dongsheng.

"I don't know what else the girl can teach you?" Hou Dongsheng asked very politely.

Du Liniang: "You robbed me of the soul diamond three years ago, should you give me an explanation?"

Hou Dongsheng frowned.

"But I have the grace of not killing you."

"If you don't give an explanation, you won't be able to leave today." Du Liniang stepped forward and said aggressively.

"Hmph! Senior brother spared your life, but you don't know what to do." Suzaku snorted coldly and was about to step forward.

Hou Dongsheng raised his hand to stop him.

"Do you want to do something? I advise you to give up this idea. This is Cangyuanfang City, which is guarded by a third-tier formation, and this palace is the head of the Law Enforcement Hall of the Lianyou Sect."

Hou Dongsheng: "How do you want to explain?"

"Compensate me with a soul diamond, and the grievances between us will be wiped out." Du Liniang said.

"How about this, I will give you [-] spirit stones, and I will buy that soul diamond, what do you think?" Hou Dongsheng said after thinking for a moment.

Suzaku: "Eldest brother, why do you trust this woman so much? Aren't you afraid that she won't let us go after taking the spirit stone?"

"I believe Miss Du is definitely not a greedy person."

"Okay! As long as you compensate me with 3 spirit stones, I will let the past go!"

Hou Dongsheng: "Okay! It's a deal."

"Are you really going to pay for the spirit stones of the palace?" Du Liniang seemed quite surprised.

"Suzaku pays."

Suzaku took a step forward and looked at Du Liniang coldly. She slapped the storage bag and took out three top-grade Yin stones.

Du Liniang was slightly taken aback.

Although the soul diamond is a third-level spiritual material, it is produced by the Nether Refining Sect after all. Du Liniang can get it internally, and it only takes [-] spiritual stones at most.

Although the three top-grade Yin stones are equivalent to [-] spirit stones based on the market price, the ghost refining sect consumes a lot of them.

Three top-grade Yin spirit stones can be exchanged for at least [-] spirit stones.

I made a lot of money.

Du Liniang accepted three top-grade Yin stones without hesitation.

When the things went into the storage bag, Du Liniang was still in a daze.

"let's go."

Hou Dongsheng and Suzaku turned and left.

"Wait a minute!" Du Liniang stopped the two of them again.

"Hmph! Senior brother, it seems that someone wants to slaughter us like fat sheep." Suzaku turned around, his eyes were full of killing intent.

Du Liniang: "Fellow Daoist Hou misunderstood, I practice Youzong's sect has strict rules, how dare I use Fangshi Formation to suppress you fellow Daoist?"

"Dare to ask Miss Du what she means?"

"Fellow Daoist Hou has the grace of not killing me after all. Liniang is by no means a person who doesn't know what is good or bad. If there is anything useful to Fellow Daoist, just ask."

Hou Dongsheng: "I want to buy some materials for refining first-order puppets. There are a lot of them."

"But do you want iron wood, golden bamboo, and fire copper?"

Hou Dongsheng shook his head: "I want to refine a first-order puppet that can fly quickly for a short time. Although iron wood is strong, it is too heavy to be used..."

"I need to use green spirit wood, golden bamboo, sky palm leaves, and mountain hemp silk as the main materials to refine puppets. I will probably cast 50 puppets. Considering the loss of materials when refining puppets, I should prepare at least 100 parts of materials..."

Du Liniang: "The things you want are many and complicated. It would be too time consuming if you go shopping by yourself. If you believe in me, fellow Taoist, you can leave it to me to sort them out."

"Then there will be Miss Laodu." Hou Dongsheng cupped his fists and bowed.

"You are welcome, fellow Daoist Hou. Why don't you two come to my Law Enforcement Hall as guests. You only need to wait a few days, and the stewards of each family will come to your door with materials. If the other two have other needs, just ask the disciples in this hall to handle them." Du Liniang said with a smile .

"Okay." Hou Dongsheng nodded.

"this way please."

Law Enforcement Hall.

Hou Dongsheng and Suzaku lived in a quiet courtyard.

"Eldest brother, I still don't understand why you trust that woman so much?" Suzaku asked puzzled.

Hou Dongsheng: "Trust between people is mutual. If you don't trust others first, how can you make others trust you?"

"You need to be more generous, it's hard to get things done with chicken stomachs."

Suzaku: "But if Du Liniang sees Cai and tries to murder us, what should I do?"

"Don't worry, I have practiced Daoism for my brother for many years, and I will prepare for the worst in everything."

Hou Dongsheng also has two sets of Qixingzi's "Qiqiao Earth Shaking Talisman Formation" in his hand, which can be used to break the third-order formation. Coupled with the Kwai Shui Yinlei, which is as powerful as the full-strength blow of a Jindan cultivator, it is not difficult to kill it. .

But it's better not to...

After all, enemies should be resolved rather than knotted.

The troubles of the Fortune Chamber of Commerce have not been resolved. If you continue to cause other troubles, you will only get deeper and deeper, and you will be killed one day.

He has a long lifespan and can slowly improve his cultivation, there is no need to do so.

I only hope that Du Liniang will not betray my trust, otherwise this time she will be torn to pieces.

dong dong dong...

There was a knock on the door of the courtyard.

Hou Dongsheng: "Please come in."

A disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall of Lianyouzong entered the small courtyard wearing a shirtless man.

"Senior Hou, this is Master Luo from the Artifact Refining Workshop in Fang City. He has extraordinary attainments in artefact refining and is able to forge high-grade magic artefacts."

"Master Luo, this is Senior Hou."

The shirtless man came to Hou Dongsheng's body, cupped his fists and asked, "May I ask you what magic weapon you want to refine?"

"The things I refine are a bit complicated. First, I need to cast a golden needle with fire copper. The needle is thin at the front and thick at the back, shaped like an awl, about one inch long, and can be placed in the needle barrel..."

Master Luo of the Artifact Refining Workshop listened for a while, with a dazed expression on his face.

"Senior Hou, the magic weapon you cast doesn't need to refine the pattern?" Master Luo withdrew my blood.

Hou Dongsheng: "No need, the cast of this seat is not an illegal weapon, but actually a part of a mechanism puppet. This thing needs to be composed of fire copper and gold needles, syringes, sealing rings, gunpowder chambers, and impact grooves. In order to reduce weight, in addition to the gold needles must be It needs to be made of fire copper, and other refined iron will not be used, Master Luo and his group of masters are really overkill to refine this kind of thing, I wonder if Master Luo can send some fire workers to help?"

"Where is senior Hou, this junior will send ten boys to help."

"It doesn't need to be so much, just ask 5 firework boys to come to help, and bring 5 catties of fire copper, and the required spirit stones..." Hou Dongsheng looked embarrassed.

"Senior Hou, Hall Master Du has explained this matter. Just put the flash broken spirit stone on the account of the Law Enforcement Hall, and the Hall Master will settle the matter."

"That's work."

The three clasped their fists together.

The two left the courtyard.

After a moment.

The Law Enforcing Hall disciple knocked on the door again.

"Senior Hou, the elders of the Xiao family in Qingmu Ridge have come in person. He has brought samples of Qingling wood produced by the Xiao family. There are ten-year wood and century-old wood. Will we meet in the reception hall?"

Hou Dongsheng: "Please come to the small courtyard."

"Senior, please wait a moment."

a while.

The disciples of Law Enforcing Hall led the elders of Xiao's family to discuss business.

A sale of thousands of spirit stones was finalized in a few words.

Then came the elders of the Li family, the elders of the Qin family, and the elders of the Hao family.

Every business is finalized in two or three sentences.

The next day.

Several elders of the Xiuxian family brought goods to the door one after another, and Hou Dongsheng was very satisfied with their goods.

Hou Dongsheng gave Du Liniang another top-grade Yin Lingshi, and Du Liniang completed the payment on her behalf.

It only took two days to collect all the puppet refining materials, and even found the OEM.

More than a dozen maogong disciples from the refining workshop, alchemy workshop, talisman making workshop, and pottery workshop sat in a row.

Hou Dongsheng arranged the operation procedures for them according to the streamlined operation process.

More than ten days later.

That's it.

Hou Dongsheng put 52 unfinished flying puppets into the storage bag.

"This time is so smooth, it all depends on Fellow Daoist Du's efforts. Hou has no possessions, so he can only thank you with a high-grade Yin stone. I hope Fellow Daoist Du, don't be disgusted."

"Hehe... Fellow Daoist Hou's thank you gift is really too heavy." Du Liniang said with a smile on her face.

Du Liniang personally sent Hou Dongsheng and Suzaku away from Fangshi. They traveled ten miles before saying goodbye.

Before leaving, he turned his head three times a step at a time.

Suzaku was stunned.

"Unexpectedly, this Du Liniang didn't play tricks?" Suzaku still couldn't believe it until now.

"Naturally, it's because there's no need, junior sister, living in a different place, if you were her, what choice would you make?" Hou Dongsheng asked.

"Cack! It goes without saying, of course I want someone to kill you and divide up Suzaku's storage bag." The gourd around Hou Dongsheng's waist began to croak, and Wang Dato yelled unwillingly.

"Little toad is short-sighted! It's useless to find someone to deal with me. The weak ones are useless. The strong ones will take away her spoils. At most, she will call friends and call for two people with equal strength. It is impossible to be my opponent. .”

"No matter what, Du Liniang has lived up to my trust. It is really a blessing to be able to turn a war into a friendship. In the world of cultivating immortals, one more friend is far better than one more enemy."

"Eldest brother is right." Suzaku echoed sincerely.

"But that's because we only exposed Yinshi. If there is a treasure that can be related to that woman's way, then she is probably crazier than any bandit cultivator." Suzaku said with a roll of his eyes.

"Indeed." Hou Dongsheng nodded in approval.

"Let's go... Let's go to the capital of the Yue Kingdom. It would be the best if we can avoid swords and soldiers during this trip. Otherwise, we can only cut the weeds and root them out."

"Obey, senior brother."

The two rays of light headed towards the capital of Yue Kingdom, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Refining Youzong.

Law Enforcement Hall.

Du Liniang led seven or eight people to surround a puppet in the center, observing and discussing it.

This puppet has a yin and yang face, one black and one white, its hands are slender wings, its body is humanoid, its feet have sharp claws, and there are complex fine iron parts between its chest and abdomen.

It was the Feihong puppet that Hou Dongsheng entrusted Mao Gong's disciples to cast.

Wen Shen, the puppet master of the Refining Nether Sect, frowned and said, "Hall Master, this puppet is only a semi-finished product. It has not been filled with a puppet soul, and it has not yet been completed. The materials used for this puppet are very cheap. If you want to achieve the ultimate, you must at least use the soul of a second-level flying spirit beast as the puppet soul... If this flying puppet is successfully refined, it will be a second-level puppet at most. Even the wooden puppets can't beat it, it looks like an apprentice's bad work."

Du Liniang: "The apprentice's bad work? Hahahaha... Master Wen, you know that the apprentice you mentioned spent 5 spirit stones in order to refine more than fifty puppets like this?"

Wen Shen: "It is true that a puppet consumes a lot of spirit stones, but it also costs 5 spirit stones to make this kind of puppet. Heh... this man is really a stick."

Du Liniang: "..."

"Forget it... Since Master Wen can't see the name, let's let this matter go, and I will prepare for retreat." Du Liniang waved her hand and said.

"I'm waiting to congratulate the hall master for his success in the golden core and rank among real people." All the people present said together.

world of dust.

The second soul.

A black jade bottle was opened.

A streak of black souls flew out of it.

These gray spirits vaguely take on the form of harpies.

"Ah~~~~" There were shrill screams one after another, and more than a hundred ghosts wailed and howled.

They were full of resentment and howled wantonly, but the object they faced was the second soul at the peak of the ghost general.

Another side.

The bloody white tiger glanced at it lightly, and the hundreds of souls disappeared immediately, all of them behaved like little babies.

Quiet, honest, neatly arranged.

The second soul is like choosing apples in the supermarket.

Three of the most useful were picked out of these.

These are three second-order souls, who learned about the second-order harpies.

Then, more than thirty first-order peak souls danced.

Three first-order peaks, fused and cast into a second-order soul.

Only half an hour or so.

The second soul then forged 14 second-order puppet souls.

Put these 14 second-order puppet souls aside separately.

The second soul integrated a useless mid-first-order soul into a Feihong puppet.

The Feihong puppet made of green spiritual wood flapped its wings, but it couldn't fly high if it wanted to.

outside world.

Two rays of light, one red and one blue, fell into a mountain depression.

Hou Dongsheng: "This place is relatively remote, just to try the power of the puppet."

There was a flash of blackness in Hou Dongsheng's hand.

A Feihong puppet the size of half a man appeared in his hand.

Since the soul of the first-order puppet is used, the aura of the puppet is only first-order.

Slap open the puppet's chest and abdomen, put a low-grade spirit stone in the power room; put a second-grade low-grade dragon beard catfish demon pill in the ammunition compartment, and put the prepared strong acid and strong alkali in the ignition chamber.

The ammunition is loaded and the golem is released.

The Feihong puppet spread its wings and glides towards the depths of the mountain depression.

Activate the Puppet Feihong Formation.

Feihong's puppet's speed suddenly increased as fast as a flying sword.

When the puppet touches the ground.

The yin and yang faces suddenly closed.

The fusion of strong acid and strong alkali in the ignition chamber produced an explosion, which pushed the golden needle made of fire copper into the second-order demon pill in the ammunition compartment.

The dragon beard catfish's second-level demon pill is a water-type demon pill, which contains a lot of water magic power and thunder magic power.

The golden needle is refined from fire copper. The fire copper of fire attribute hits the demon core of water attribute, and the change of water and fire produces thunder light. The thunder light will inevitably trigger the power of water and thunder inside the demon core, thus forming an explosion.

A huge mine ball exploded deep in the col.

A huge blue light sphere suddenly rose up, occupying the entire mountain depression in an instant.

The blue light curtain was seven or eight feet in front of Suzaku and Hou Dongsheng.

The scope of this explosion completely exceeded Hou Dongsheng's expectations.

The blue light from the explosion reflected on the faces of Suzaku and Hou Dongsheng.

Surprise was written on the faces of the two of them.

The huge blue light ball slowly dissipated, not directly, but turned into blue fishes that shrank inward, collapsed, and finally disappeared into nothingness.

In addition to this eerie sight, there was sound.

Wonderful, high-pitched, passionate, distant.

It's like the gurgling of running water, and the roar of huge waves.

Hou Dongsheng heard it...

It was the sound of the sea.

After the explosion of the mine ball, the valley, which was still green just now, was completely barren of grass.

Not to mention the vegetation, even the protruding stones have been cut off, leaving only the smooth mirror-like ground, as if someone had gouged it out with a huge iron spoon.

"This power is so terrifying." Suzaku said this after a while.

"It's not surprising that the demon core of the second-level monster explodes on its own, and it explodes with such power, but it's really surprising that the mine ball exploded on land with such an effect." Hou Dongsheng also said with emotion.

At the beginning, the second god, the ghost emperor, parasitized in the perineum of the mermaids, and used sunflower water and thunder to sweep across the sea, driving all the dragon beard catfish to extinction.

The thunder ball of the dragon beard catfish moved extremely slowly in the sea, far less swift than the Kuishui Yinlei.

Almost all mine balls will be detonated in advance by Kuishui Yinlei.

Even if there is an occasional impact, it will be blocked by the six-pole ice shield cast by the ghost emperor with the magic power of the merman.

Therefore, Hou Dongsheng didn't have an intuitive impression of the power of the mine ball.

But Hou Dongsheng couldn't block the blow that Feihong's puppet exploded just now, even with a six-pole ice shield.

After all, Feihong's puppet's self-explosion blow is a demon core that explodes itself, while the mine ball spit out by the dragon beard catfish is just a spell, and there is no comparison between the two.

At present, Hou Dongsheng still has 51 Feihong puppets, but only 14 are able to enter the combat readiness due to the second-order puppet soul.

14 powerful Feihong puppets are enough to be used as hole cards.

a few days later.

The capital of the Yue Kingdom.

People in the city come and go, shoulder to shoulder.

To avoid attracting attention, Suzaku took off his red mask and walked into the city with Hou Dongsheng in Tsing Yi.

There are many shops on both sides of the street, and the voices of hawkers are endless.

The city is full of people, and there are even street performers that are rarely seen elsewhere.

Those who play monkeys, those who break boulders in their chests, the gongs and drums are noisy, and it is very lively.

Hou Dongsheng: "How long has it been since you visited a mortal town?"

"This is the first time I've come to such a big city." Suzaku seemed to have never seen a bumpkin in the world.

Hou Dongsheng looked at the scale of the capital city of the Yue Kingdom. There are more than a dozen streets in it. It is indeed much larger than those small towns, but compared with the world in Hou Dongsheng's memory, it is simply not as good as a small county town.

It's just that there are so many people here...

"Then you are the Jiexian Building. There is an underground auction below, and an auction will be held at a fixed time every year." Hou Dongsheng introduced, pointing to the tallest wooden building in Yue Kingdom.

"When will the auction be held?" Suzaku asked.

"On the ninth day of September every year."

"Isn't there still more than a month left?"

"It's not necessarily true. There was an accident a few years ago, maybe they will change the time and place."

"What accident?"

"Hehe...that's a long story."

Hou Dongsheng and Suzaku talked while walking.

suddenly.

Hou Dongsheng stopped in his tracks.

"Turning the corner ahead is the Fortune Chamber of Commerce Guild Hall. It should be just a contact point of the Chamber of Commerce, not the real head of the Chamber of Commerce. But I can only go there to contact the high-level Chamber of Commerce."

"I'll go in alone later, you go shopping for a while."

"No! I'm going to the dust world." Suzaku shook his head and said.

"Alright, there are so many people on the street, let's go to that restaurant."

Suzaku nodded.

The two went to the Kangliang Restaurant, found an empty corner, and Hou Dongsheng pressed Suzaku with his palm.

Suzaku disappeared out of thin air.

Hou Dongsheng walked out of the corner and said loudly: "Restaurant, serve some jars of the best wine here."

"Quack quack!"

The little gourd on Hou Dongsheng's waist actually let out excited frog calls.
