Gou became a god or devil after splitting his body

The Jin Mansion is divided into two parts: the inner and outer mansions. The inner mansion is the essence and core of the Jin Mansion. It is inhabited by direct descendants of the Jin family and some dependents who are helpful to the Jin family.

For example, those alchemists who are in the Yunzang Realm or even the Innate Realm are offering sacrifices.

The Waifu is naturally a branch of the Jin family, where the Jin family's servants and guards live and work.

If people from the outer palace want to enter the inner palace without a summons from the nobles of the inner palace, trespassers can be killed on the spot.

At night, the Jin Mansion is still brightly lit, with exquisite lanterns of various colors hanging under the eaves of every house in the inner mansion.

In the outer palace, there are much fewer lights, and except for some places, all other places have turned off the lights.

The woodshed where Li Yan was located naturally belonged to the foreign government.

After dinner, they had an hour's rest, and then they could only go to bed. They were not allowed to go out of the woodshed unless called by the steward, otherwise they would be killed on the spot if they encountered a night patrol.

In the big shop with ten people, there are everything from snoring, grinding teeth, talking in sleep.

Of course, Li Yan could still accept these, but the most unacceptable thing was the strong smell on their bodies.

After a day's work during the day, my body was wet with sweat over and over again, but I didn't take a shower when I went to bed at night.

Li Yan couldn't figure out why these people didn't take a shower. Isn't this a poison gas bomb?

Li Yan stood up and woke up a newcomer sleeping next to him.

In other words, he was not used to such an environment and didn't sleep much at all.

"You go there."

"Go to the bathroom, what, do you want to come with me?"

"Forget it, I don't want to yet."

"Okay, I'm older. I might come back later to spread the smell."

"Remember to spread out, otherwise I feel like I'm going to sleep out."

"knew."

So, Li Yan strutted towards the toilet.

However, when he walked to a dark shadow, Li Yan did not come out from the other end of the shadow.

The firewood house steward's courtyard was specially built for the firewood house stewards.

It's about the same size as the small courtyard Li Yan rented in Linjiang City.

The four stewards of the woodshed all live here.

There is one second-class steward and three third-class stewards.

The second-class stewards don't care about things, they are sent to provide for the elderly. After all, there is really no money in the woodshed.

There are three third-class stewards, and one is responsible for purchasing. His surname is Song. He purchases wood sent from outside. Hundreds of carts of wood are delivered every day.

However, because the lumberyard that delivers the wood is also owned by the Jin family, there is little oil and water.

One of the handymen responsible for chopping firewood is the money manager. His position can be said to be the most lucrative in the firewood room. After all, every newcomer who comes in will "selflessly contribute" one month's salary.

The last one, named Huang, is responsible for managing the chopped firewood and delivering it to where it is needed.

"Nine o'clock, I win, take the money."

"Tch, why are you so lucky today? You win."

"No more playing, no more playing, I'm going to sleep."

The least loser was Guanshi Huang, who threw down the wood chips in his hand and got up to go back to sleep.

They are playing a popular game in the world. One person draws ten wooden cards, and then each person plays a card to compare the size. The winner continues to play, and the others put away the played wooden cards. Whose wooden card is the last one? Once it's done, you win.

"Old Huang, it's still early today? Let's have two more."

The manager who lost the most money still wanted to continue playing, and he was still waiting to make up his money later.

"No fun, I'm not lucky today, I'll try it next time."

"Besides, I have to go to the warehouse to check the wood. It really can't be played with anymore."

After Huang Guanshi finished speaking, he picked up his coat, put it on his shoulders, lit a lantern on the ground, and left with the lantern. "

"Forget it, he won't play, let's keep playing."

Some money managers who lost their minds started to reshuffle the cards.

"No, what's the point of playing with two people? Let's play next time."

Manager Song declined Manager Qian’s request.

He had almost won, but he didn't want to lose back later.

Manager Qian was naturally unwilling. He hadn't paid back his money yet, so how could he let Manager Song go?

However, Manager Song continued to decline Manager Qian on the grounds that he had to hand over the lumber tomorrow morning.

After all the hard work, Manager Song finally got away and left here.

"This old money man, it's true that he won't let others go if he loses money. I didn't do that when I lost."

Manager Song muttered a few words and walked to his room.

In Guanshi Qian's room, Guanshi Qian collected the wooden signs and placed them in the wooden box.

After that, he took out a wooden box from a hidden compartment on the floor tiles.

Opening the wooden box, there were many fifty-tael banknotes, dozens of gold leaves, and several small white jade bottles.

"Hey, I only have so little money, and I don't know when I will make enough money to retire."

In the Jin family, servants and stewards over sixty years old will be forcibly dismissed.

After the stewards were dismissed, they all liked to buy a manor around Linjiang City as a place for them to retire.

Therefore, they all like to try their best to save more pension money for themselves during their tenure.

Others like to go to other small towns to establish their own families.

But there are very few of them. After all, they are accustomed to the prosperity of Linjiang City, and it is difficult for them to adapt to the simplicity and inconvenience of those small towns.

Manager Qian was counting the banknotes. He was just halfway through the count when he felt sleepy. Unable to hold himself up, he fell head first. The next moment, his head hit the wooden table, making a small crater in the wooden table.

Li Yan swaggered in from the outside and saw the wealth contained in the wooden box on the table.

"Hey, I don't need to look for it. You've prepared it yourself."

Li Yan snatched the banknotes from Manager Qian's hand and put them into the wooden box. Li Yan stuffed them into his body without counting the amount of wealth.

After extinguishing the lights in the room, Li Yan went to another steward's room.

As usual, put the poison, then push the door directly and enter.

This time, Li Yan searched for a long time before finally finding a small jar containing banknotes, gold, and elixirs in a secret place.

Put it into your body as usual.

After that, Li Yan did not continue searching, but went to the toilet. After staying for a while to let his body smell some, he returned to his Datong shop.

"The smell is gone."

Li Yan just lay down on the bed, but the person next to him was not sleeping yet.

"It's been completely dispersed. I smelled it and the smell is almost gone. If you don't believe me, just smell it."

"No, no, no."

After saying this, the man turned over and turned his back to Li Yan.

Li Yan grinned, then closed his eyes, separated his soul and returned to his true body.

A small amount of soul will make him less sensitive to the surrounding environment and can help him sleep.

No, after a while, his snoring started.

"He fell asleep so quickly."

The man next to him couldn't help but be speechless.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Yan's clone felt someone patting his face, and immediately communicated with his true body, and a part of his soul came over.

Li Yan opened his eyes and saw someone trying to slap him in the face.

window._taboola = window._taboola || ; _taboola.push({ mode: 'thumbs-feed-01', container: 'taboola-below-article-feed', placement: 'Below Article Feed', target_type: 'mix' });

Immediately, he held the man's hand and quickly sat up from the bed.

"What are you doing? I was sleeping well. Why are you hitting me in the face?"

Li Yanwang asked angrily.

"Manager Qian and Manager Song have called everyone together, why don't you get up quickly."

Sure enough, everyone else had already dressed and hurried outside.

Li Yan quickly put on his clothes and gathered with everyone.

Soon, nearly two hundred people in the woodshed were gathered.

At this time, the sky had turned white, and the three stewards stood in front of everyone.

"Last night, things belonging to Manager Song and I were stolen. I suspect the thief is among you."

"I would like to advise everyone, if you admit it yourself, I will forgive it, but if you are caught by me, you will be beaten to death on the spot."

At this time, the knot on Qian's forehead had not gone away. His eyes were bloodshot and his face was very ferocious. He looked at Li Yan and the group of people with murderous intent in his eyes.

Obviously, if the thief really came forward, the end would not be that good.

Everyone was very surprised when they heard that the things of the two stewards had been stolen.

Because even the most senior person has never encountered such a thing.

Managers Qian and Song were trying hard to observe everyone's reactions, hoping to find the murderer from everyone's reactions.

Evidently, they were quickly disappointed; they could see nothing, and no one showed any apparent panic.

It was because of surprise that everyone seemed a little noisy.

This made the two already irritable stewards even more irritable.

So, "Be quiet" and "Shut up."

The two shouted at the same time, causing everyone to shut up in silence.

No one wants to provoke these two people at this time.

After waiting for a while, no one came forward and admitted that they did it.

"Okay, very good, you forced me to do this."

Manager Qian gritted his teeth, while Manager Song stared angrily.

Because of their anger, several potholes were dug into the ground beneath their feet.

Obviously, they are no longer in the mood to control their powerful power at this time.

"It turns out that not every third-class steward is in the blood-changing realm. I was wrong before."

Through the leakage of their strength, Li Yan had already seen that the two of them were only at the bone forging level.

"Old Huang, go find someone from the [Punishment Hall] and tell them that someone here has stolen something valuable and ask them to send someone over."

"Okay, I'll call you, but there's one thing I want to remind you. If you delay in supplying firewood, you will be the first to be arrested when the [Punishment Hall] comes."

After Manager Huang finished speaking, he left in a hurry.

The two stewards who stayed behind broke into cold sweat instantly.

"Why are you still standing here? Why don't you go get to work?"

Manager Qian doesn't say he's always in charge, but he just drives everyone to work.

"But, Mr. Qian, we haven't had breakfast yet? Should we..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was rudely interrupted by Manager Qian.

"Eat, eat, eat, just know how to eat."

"I tell you, if you don't finish the work today, no one will give me food."

Manager Qian was a little crazy, maybe he was too stimulated.

Everyone didn't dare to speak anymore, and quickly grabbed their axes and started to choose wood to chop.

But it was obvious that the people who didn't eat were weak when they worked.

Even if the two managers shouted to cheer up, it didn't have much effect.

And they couldn't punish them, this was the power of the [Punishment Hall]. If they dared to do so, they would wait for the people from the [Punishment Hall] to come to them.

Soon, the people from the [Punishment Hall] really came to them, but they came because the two people's things were stolen.

After listening to the two people's stories, the [Punishment Hall] had already determined that someone had knocked the two people unconscious with drugs before starting to steal.

Then they asked the two people if they had any enemies or grudges with anyone.

Both said no, of course, they couldn't say it even if they did.

It can be said that no one here likes them, because the wages that were deducted from everyone were divided among the four people, with the difference being more or less.

Anyone who has been here for a few months knows all of this, and naturally no one will like them.

Therefore, they will immediately lock their suspicion on everyone.

And this kind of thing is fine if it is done privately, and everyone will turn a blind eye if it is not exposed.

If you expose it, the first ones to get into trouble will be these managers.

After that, the [Punishment Hall] began to conduct a carpet search of the entire firewood room, even the toilet was not spared.

Nothing was found.

Then they asked everyone one by one if they had seen any suspicious people at night, and who they thought was the most suspicious.

It took three days to find more than a dozen suspects who had time to commit crimes.

Among them was Li Yan who went to the toilet.

However, in the end, it was left unresolved.

After all, it was not something involving the Jin family, and the [Punishment Hall] spent three days without solving the case.

It was directly determined that it was stolen by someone outside the firewood room, and who stole it specifically and when the things could be found.

The two managers received the reply that they should go back and wait for news.

After that, the two managers became more and more irritable, and often deducted Li Yan's monthly salary for some trivial matters.

Although Li Yan didn't care much, after all, he had emptied the two people's family assets.

Afterwards, Li Yan calculated that there were nearly 3,000 taels of silver notes and more than 200 taels of gold.

The ratio of gold to silver is 1 to 10, but in actual exchange, this ratio is about 11.

That is to say, one tael of gold can be exchanged for about 11 taels of silver in a gold shop.

In addition, there are some bottles containing elixirs, all of which are elixirs that help break through blood transfusion.

These things were sent to another disguised Li Yan clone by Li Yan when he accepted the wood.

Later, it fell into the hands of Li Yan's original body.

A few days later, all the things were exchanged for silver notes, a total of 6,825 taels of silver notes.

Together with Li Yan's own savings, it was enough for Li Yan to practice the [Nine Purple Blood Refining Methods] to the sixth blood exchange.

However, the others came for the monthly salary. These two people deducted their silver to death. Isn't it trying to kill them?

In the end, the conflict between the two became more and more serious. The two stewards beat people to death, killing three and injuring five.

[The Punishment Hall] came again, this time taking away the two stewards, and two new stewards came.

In the whole incident, the second steward of the firewood room only showed up once, when the two stewards Qian and Song were taken away.

Later, Li Yan heard from a well-informed person that the two stewards Qian and Song retired early.

Hey, there is still a pension to be received at the end!

When they talked about this matter, they were all indignant.

"Oh, so they still have money. Looks like I have to go again."

"And those fierce women who beat up Xiao Zhao, after asking around these days, I know who they are."

"That's great, let's deal with them together."

Li Yan was chopping wood with his axe while planning his next move.
