Chapter 63 Stealing the Sacred Jade Card
At night, Li Xin returned to the restaurant alone.

"brother!"

Before he entered, he heard the voice of Bai Zhantang behind him.

Li Xin turned around and saw him cover the door of the inn before coming over.

He smiled and said, "Brother Bai, you won't be kicked out again, right?"

It looks like it shouldn't be, after all, he didn't bring any bedding.

Sure enough, after Bai Zhantang approached, he said in a serious tone, "I'm here to tell you to be careful."

Li Dao: "Who is it?"

Bai Zhantang pointed to the second floor of the inn: "That smelly guest this morning is the tomb robber we met on the black market."

"Which one?"

Li Xinxin said that there are too many tomb robbers in the black market, so how can I remember who is who.

"Tsk, it's the last one we walked around, the one that was scared away by the female ghost."

Bai Zhantang talked and gestured.

"Oh, it's him, I get it, I'll be careful."

Li Xin knew Bai Zhantang's intentions. The person who had met him on the black market suddenly came to be a guest. Although there was a high probability that it was a coincidence, he had to be on guard.

"I have nothing else to do and I'm going to bed. Brother Bai, you should go to bed early too. It's getting colder and colder at night."

Li Xin is now wearing a thick jacket and a cotton cap, all of which are relatively cheap.

I bought it specially for going to a large cemetery for business, and I don't feel bad if it gets dirty.

"Brother, if you want to go to bed, go to bed early. Don't read those messy books about gods and gods before going to bed. What kind of vixen becomes a beautiful girl, and you take a female ghost as a concubine, etc."

"It's really impossible. I'll go out and accompany you to Baihua Building on South Street, or Fenglai Building on West Street. Go and quench your thirst. Don't keep thinking about it."

Bai Zhantang persuaded him earnestly.

The fact that Li Xin went to the big cemetery to do meritorious deeds spread in a small area.

Almost everyone in the East Street knew that the new owner of Yihong Restaurant did not open up business immediately after taking over the restaurant, but did good deeds instead.

Ordinary good deeds are fine, they have to be linked to the cemetery.

Most people agree, after all, in this world, the dead are the most important, and it is safe to be buried in the ground. It is indeed a meritorious deed to put up a plaque on the unnamed grave.

But some people laughed at him for being stupid and thankless.

It's better to give out porridge at the entrance of the restaurant, give away food or something, at least to give favors to the living, so that people can still remember your kindness, and occasionally help publicize a few words, won't your reputation rise?

If you put up a sign for a dead person, all the people involved are dead, so you can't help spread the reputation, you can only rely on indirect ones, and the effect will be much worse.

In the Tongfu Inn, Tong Xiangyu agreed with Li Xin's approach after hearing about it, and even came to ask if she needed her help, and praised her greatly.

Li felt slightly ashamed in his heart, but accepted it calmly on the surface.

Arguments don't matter.

At least he did something good, albeit a bit rough.

Lu Xiucai, Li Dazui, Guo Furong, and Mo Xiaobei all had similar attitudes to Tong Xiangyu.

Only Bai Zhantang became suspicious, because he and Li Xin both knew the clue that there was a female ghost haunting the cemetery.

"Brother Bai, what are you doing talking about that female ghost? You misunderstood me too much! And if you really want to go to the brothel, how can you explain to shopkeeper Tong? I'm afraid it's not driving you out for a night, but sweeping you out of the house." .”

Li Xinxin thinks that Bai Zhantang's sense of smell is really keen, and he knows that his motives for going to the big cemetery are not pure.

But the Ancient Tomb Sect and the "Nine Yin Scriptures" are of great importance to his success in his future martial arts career, so he must not reveal half of it, so as not to cause variables and complications.

So while talking, I deliberately changed the subject.

"What explanation! Do I need to explain to her? I didn't mean it before, but today I gave her a small gift, and I coaxed her into obedience."

Bai Zhantang brushed his hair and said.

Sure enough, he was involved in the direction of the topic.

The main reason is that he doesn't pay much attention to the cemetery, just to remind Li Xin a few words.

So it was easy for him to focus back on Tong Xiangyu's matter.

"Small gift? Didn't the hairpin bought on the black market be given away the same day when you came back? Where did you buy new things from?"

Li Xin thought to himself, probably bought another cheap fake to scare Tong Xiangyu.

It’s not okay to send fake products all the time. It feels like laying mines, and the more they are buried, the more they will be buried.

"I didn't buy it. It was a jade plaque that was custom-made for me earlier. I won't talk about the specifics. Anyway, a jade plaque can make the shopkeeper stop, and it is considered a great value."

Bai Zhantang mentioned the jade plaque briefly, and didn't intend to elaborate on it.

But it was different in Li Xin's ears.

Could it be the Stealing Sacred Jade Plaque?

"Come here! Zhantang, help!"

Just thinking about it, Tong Xiangyu's shout came from the second floor of Tongfu Inn.

Bai Zhantang's complexion changed, his feet moved slightly, and with a "whoosh", he leaped obliquely from the ground to the second floor, and entered through the window of a certain room.

Li Xin felt a cold wind blowing over his face, and Bai Zhantang who was beside him just now disappeared, and he barely saw his back entering the window.

"So fast."

Li Xin sighed secretly, and walked towards the door of the inn.

With Bai Zhantang around, it is expected that there will be no danger.

It wasn't long after he got in that he figured out what was going on.

It turned out to be a corner of Tong Xiangyu's room, and a hole was drilled out of the wall without sound.

At the same time, she found that the jade plaque given to her by Bai Zhantang was missing.

Although she really wanted to hide the fact that the jade tablet was lost, the room where she slept was unwittingly punched, which was really scary.

You know, the second person to die in the Jia family was assassinated by entering the house.

How could she be calm, that's why she yelled for help just now.

Fortunately, it was a false alarm, and Tong Xiangyu was fine and intact.

The thief who made the hole has not been seen, and he probably left.

Everyone gathered in the lobby on the first floor to discuss matters.

"That hole is only about a circle bigger than my head, how could anyone get through it?"

Guo Furong raised her doubts.

"So it was a false alarm. Maybe the thief gave up halfway through the hole."

Tong Xiangyu tried his best to conceal the loss of the jade badge at this time.

"That's not necessarily true. What if the thief is a child?"

Lu Xiucai said.

Provoking Tong Xiangyu's stare, he was suddenly baffled.

"It's bone shrinking kung fu. As long as you are a tomb robber, you should practice this since childhood."

Bai Zhantang had locked on the suspect at this time, so he said to Guo Furong, "Xiao Guo, go up and see if the new guest is still in the guest room."

"Huh? That man knows how to shrink bones? He doesn't look like he knows martial arts."

Guo Furong said so, but obediently got up and ran to the second floor to confirm.

Soon she came back and nodded to everyone.

"Just, even if the guest is a tomb robber, then he can just steal the tomb and dig the grave. Why come to our inn to show off?"

Dazui didn't understand.

"That's right, I think he's just showing off, and he didn't lose anything anyway, so let's forget about it."

Tong Xiangyu is still working hard.

"Didn't you lose anything? Where's the jade token I gave you?"

Bai Zhantang has already seen her unnaturalness.

Moreover, after the jade token was given to her, she hung it on her chest smugly, and now there is no jade token in her place.
