I'm catching monsters in Liaozhai
Chapter 159 The Disappearing Gold
Since the loss of his youngest son, Zhao Debao's life has been like a year.
Always depressed.
Don’t think about food and tea.
I don’t even have the heart to take care of my business anymore.
There is only one thing I think about every day.
Thinking that the younger son can come back as soon as possible.
Finally, on this day, maybe the thoughts and hopes every day finally moved God.
The younger son finally came back.
Came back in perfect condition.
This made him very happy.
I burst into tears on the spot.
Zhao Debao took Xu Lang and the three of them and sincerely invited them to stay at Zhao's house for a few days in order to repay them well.
The three agreed.
period.
Zhao Debao had a private chat with Xu Lang again.
The conversation was about Fox Meiniang.
As for the fox, Zhao Debao naturally knew that his son was of human-demon blood, and he also knew it clearly. He apologized to Xu Lang for concealing this matter.
He told Xu Lang a story.
A story about him and Fox Meiniang.
Zhao Debao was a native of Changshan Town. He had been married and had children. Unfortunately, his son suffered from a congenital disease and died early.
His wife also left him because of his poverty.
Time flies and he is nearly fifty years old.
But after wasting half his life, he still accomplished nothing and did nothing.
He thought his life would be like this, but once, when he was selling medicinal materials in another place, he passed by a village and met a young and beautiful woman.
The woman said that her parents died because her family was poor and could not afford to bury them.
Begged Zhao Debao to help.
Although Zhao Debao didn't have much money, he was an old bachelor with no father, no mother, no wife and no children. Seeing that the woman was pitiful, he spent most of his money to help the woman bury her parents.
In order to repay him, the woman decided to commit herself to him.
Zhao Debao knew what his situation was. He wanted money but no one, and he wanted people but no one.
People who are only half a hundred years old may be buried in the grave in a short time, so why should they abuse their women?
So he refused.
But this woman seemed to recognize him and said that if he didn't agree, she would hang herself.
Zhao Debao had no choice but to agree.
It's strange to say that since the woman followed him.
His life is like cheating.
Doing the same business as others can make twice as much money as others.
Gradually, Zhao Debao became angry.
One day, the woman said, you are a good person and you should not be without any incense.
On that rainy night, Zhao Debao didn't know what happened. Maybe he had been suppressed for too long, or maybe because he was rich and didn't have to worry about being able to support her, so he slept with her.
Ten months later.
The woman gave birth to a boy for Zhao Debao.
Named Zhao Yu.
Time flies, another six years.
On this day, the woman bid farewell to Zhao Debao.
At the same time, he revealed his identity.
original.
The woman was a fox because Zhao Debao had saved her life in her previous life. Seeing that he was in such a state of desolation in this life, she couldn't bear to let him cut off the incense, so she came here to help the Zhao family continue the incense.
So there was a scene where they met...
Zhao Debao begged the woman to stay, but the woman insisted on leaving, saying that if she did not leave, it would bring disaster to the Zhao family. At the same time, he also explained that the jade pendant on his son must be protected from damage...
But due to an accident, Zhao Yu's jade pendant broke and was taken away.
The story ends here.
Because Xu Lang also knew about it.
After hearing this, Xu Lang felt a sigh of relief in his heart and sighed, Fox Meiniang is really a loving and righteous fox.
Two days later.
Xu Lang bid farewell to Zhao Debao.
Zhao Debao also wanted to persuade Xu Lang and the others to stay longer, but Xu Lang refused. There was no news after being out for so long. Xiaoyu must have been anxious at home.
Zhao Debao had no choice but to give up.
When sending Xu Lang and the others away, they also paid the remuneration to Xu Lang and the others.
of course.
This also includes Hu Meiniang's promise to give each of the three of them one thousand taels of gold.
Zhao Debao does not have that much gold.
So it was all converted into banknotes for them.
The three of them had no objections to this.
They are all the same, and banknotes are more convenient to carry.
……
Leave Changshan Town.
After galloping all the way, Xu Lang and the others returned to Baimiao Village.
Xiaoyu was in a daze in the yard, thinking about why her son hadn't come back for so long. Suddenly she heard the sound of horse hooves outside the yard, and went out to take a look. Sure enough, the master was back.
The one in my heart is happy.
I couldn't wait to step forward and hug Xu Lang immediately.
"Master, you are back."
Xiaoyu said.
"I am back."
Xu Lang said, walking over and rubbing Xiaoyu's head.
Then, he briefly introduced Wu Liuyi to Xiaoyu.
As for Duan Feixiong, I have already met him before, so there is no need to introduce him again.
Looking at the big man who was as big as an iron tower, Xiaoyu couldn't help but be secretly shocked that there was such a tall person in the world.
He is as tall as two of himself.
Tie up the horses.
Four people entered the house.
"Sir, are you hungry? How about I cook for you now?" Xiaoyu said.
"We're not hungry yet."
Xu Lang said, "Xiaoyu, go and close the doors and windows and make them tighter."
Although Xiaoyu didn't understand why Xu Lang asked her to close the door and close the window in broad daylight, she still did so.
"Brother Duan, take out everything."
Xu Lang said.
Duan Feixiong didn't waste any time and took off the storage bag on his waist.
Open the bag.
Fall down.
Big boxes appeared one after another.
There are also some scattered silver.
They were all searched before.
Xiaoyu was surprised at how this small cloth bag could hold so many things. The next second, she was shocked by Duan Feixiong opening the boxes one by one.
Oh My God.
She subconsciously covered her mouth.
Dividing the spoils is a happy thing.
When he went to the Changle Gang, although Wu Liuyi did not go, he still got a lot of money.
Wu Liuyi refused because he didn't help at all, but Xu Lang and Duan Feixiong forced it on him, so he had to accept it.
The remaining bulk.
Naturally, it was divided between Xu Lang and Duan Feixiong.
Even if it is divided.
The money in everyone's hands is a huge amount of wealth.
"Xiaoyu, whoever sees it has a share, you can take as much as you can."
Looking at Xiaoyu who was shocked and speechless, Xu Lang pushed the gold and silver jewelry he was assigned.
"Really? That's great, thank you, sir."
Xiaoyu's eyes sparkled.
She took a gold brick from the pile of gold and silver.
"Just one piece? Get more."
Xu Lang smiled.
"Hey, that's enough. I usually don't spend much money, so I just keep this gold brick. This is the first time I've ever taken gold, and it's such a big piece. Hehe, I want to bury it. , take it out and use it when needed in the future.”
There was a golden light in Xiaoyu's eyes, holding the piece of gold as if she couldn't put it down.
When Duan Feixiong waved his hand, the gold and silver jewelry he had been given disappeared into the storage bag. It was easy and simple. There was nothing that could not be contained in a storage bag.
Xu Lang was very envious and said, "Brother Xu, when will the storage bag you promised me be implemented?"
"Don't worry, you won't have to wait long, you'll have it."
Duan Feixiong said.
With so much gold and silver jewelry, it was a big deal for Xu Lang to hide them.
I thought about it.
Xu Lang planned to dig a hole and bury it under the floor of his room first.
A big hole was soon dug.
Xu Lang poured half the box of jewelry into the half box of gold power and packed it into one box.
Just as Xu Lang was carrying the half of the box of gold and jewelry and was about to put it into the pit, suddenly a golden light emerged from his forehead, and then, all the gold in his box disappeared.
Looking at the box with only the jewelry left.
Xu Lang rubbed his eyes.
There is still no gold in the chest.
Unsure, he reached in and touched it again, but it was still empty.
He looked back at Duan Feixiong and the other two people who were also in a daze.
He was really going to be dumbfounded.
Gone.
The gold is gone.
"Brother Xu, what on earth is going on?"
It was Duan Feixiong who asked first.
Xu Lang didn't say anything, he naturally knew who did the good deed.
The same goes for Tushan Ling.
I don’t know if I can get it back in the future.
After a while, Xu Lang came back to his senses. Although the gold was taken from the Changle Gang, the feeling of gaining and losing it is always the most painful.
"Sir, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me?"
Seeing Xu Lang's foolish look, Xiaoyu panicked and spoke quickly, "Sir, I still have a gold bar, I'll get it to you."
Xu Lang grabbed Xiaoyu and smiled.
With a wry smile on his face, he said, "I'm fine."
"Sir, are you really okay?"
Xiaoyu asked.
"It's okay. What can happen to me? It's just half a box of gold. I'll find a rich man to rob it next time. And, besides, without the gold, aren't there still those jewelry and silver notes? ?”
Xu Lang said.
He looked at the box. It was originally full of boxes, half gold and half jewels. Now only the jewels were left, combined with the Tushan Order made of gold.
He had already guessed something.
That thing only eats gold.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be only jewelry left.
As for silver, when he paid the bill, he never saw it eaten.
Simultaneously.
He felt quite lucky.
Fortunately, when they were dividing the spoils just now, Duan Feixiong was the one dumping the gold, and he didn't touch it directly, otherwise he would have eaten a whole box of gold.
He didn't know where to find half a box of gold to give to others.
"Then next time, let's have a big fight."
Duan Feixiong patted Xu Lang's shoulder and comforted him, "But then again, what is going on?"
"If I say, I don't know what's going on, would you believe it?"
Xu Lang looked at him and said.
"I do not believe."
Duan Feixiong said directly.
"Oh, even if you tell me, I don't believe it."
Xu Lang sighed.
Fortunately, he had a good attitude. What if he were a person with a heart disease and suddenly lost half a box of gold and died on the spot?
Get your mind together.
Xu Lang continued to work hard, moving boxes.
Fortunately, until the end, that situation never happened again.
