Mortal Immortal Gourd

Chapter 141: Suffering in silence

In the underground secret room of the Dianshi Mansion, Ergou stood up and brushed off the dust on his clothes.

He had taken away the items in this underground secret room, and the door panel was also removed and put into the gourd.

He took this door panel back and made dozens of weapons for his men.

He even turned the floor of the secret room upside down, and took out all the traps hidden underground and in the wall interlayer and put them into the gourd.

After he turned it over, there was not even a nail left in the secret room.

He took these parts back and reassembled them somewhere else.

Ergou crawled out of the hole under the fake door, and the Dianshi Mansion was still quiet.

It seemed that the people in the mansion had not discovered that their master had disappeared.

This was the second time that Ergou had come to the Dianshi's house as a guest, and he was already familiar with the house layout of the mansion.

He bypassed the place where his family lived and went straight to the warehouse at the back.

On the walls of many places, there were still traces of his last arson.

Originally, he was a little worried. It had not been long since the last theft. If he often caught this family stealing, would the warehouse be empty?

Facts have proved that his worry was completely unnecessary. The speed at which the Dianshi made money was far beyond his imagination.

The warehouses that were emptied last time were all filled again.

So much food, bacon, dried fruits, copper coins, wine...

In addition, there were several stones of marching pills, which were probably intended to be taken to the county city to exchange for cultivation resources.

Ergou moved the materials in the warehouses into the gourd.

He was like a hardworking little bee, working hard and not complaining. He emptied several warehouses in succession without complaining.

Hard work and endurance are the nature of crops. Labor is a very happy thing.

After moving all the supplies into the gourd, he looked back at the empty warehouse, feeling a little unsatisfied.

What a pity, such a good place, there will be nothing to steal in the future.

If the hatred between the two could not be resolved, it would be better to keep it steady and steal every now and then, which is much better than farming.

Ergou did not set fire this time, and quietly left the Dianshi Mansion.

He went out of the city directly and went home. He came quietly and left quietly without letting anyone know that he had been there.

When he returned to Shekou, he first put the snake back into the snake cave. It would take at least several days for it to recover.

After this time, he could see that the farther he took the snake demon away from Shekou, the faster the snake demon's breath would deplete.

Last time, I asked the snake demon to help with farm work and carry food, and it lasted for half a day. This time, it ate outside and it was gone after a few breaths.

After Ergou returned to the top of the mountain, he hid in the stone house and counted the gains from the historian's house.

He no longer valued those spiritual stones and pills.

He valued those books more.

In the historian's study, there were ordinary books, including military books, strategies for governing the country, and articles by sages.

It is beneficial to read books. These books will be very helpful if you read them slowly in the future.

In addition to these, he also got a book "Thousand Machines" in the secret room.

Those traps in the secret room that made him hard to guard against were all related to this book.

In addition to this book on mechanisms, there is also a book on cultivation techniques.

Unfortunately, this technique only has the Qi training stage part, and there is no technique to practice after the foundation building stage.

It is a reference for Ergou, but it is not particularly helpful.

With Ergou's current progress, he will probably practice to the tenth level of Qi training in one or two years and prepare to build the foundation.

However, there is still no foundation building technique.

Ergou thought of this and took the wooden sign out of the gourd and looked at it carefully in his hand.

If there is no way at that time, he plans to forge a wooden sign first to see if he can exchange a technique with Daoxuanzong.

It doesn't matter if Daoxuanzong sees it, just don't exchange it if he doesn't.

If he can't exchange the technique, he can only go to the capital to find Ji Cang.

To be honest, he doesn't want to go to the capital.

What if Brother Ji asks him to stay and then invites him to be an official?

Brother Ji said that he has many beautiful sisters. What if Brother Ji wants to marry the princess to me?

Alas, it is hard to refuse such kindness!

I feel worried when I think about it now.

Brother Ji said that his sisters are all very beautiful. The oldest one is more than a thousand years old and still as beautiful as a flower.

Ergou wiped his saliva and thought far away. He was not interested in the princess and continued to count the items...

…………

……

In the county town, in the county government office.

The newly appointed county governor, Wang Zhi, sat alone at a table, frowning and thinking hard.

The team of officers and soldiers he sent to Anchang County to take the money was actually swallowed by a snake demon.

Only five people escaped alive.

Based on the reports of these five people, he had some understanding of the context of the matter and guessed who did it.

According to the information he had, there was a snake hidden in the snake mouth, and that snake had devoured several foundation-building monks of the evil cult.

Who else could it be except Ergou?

Being retaliated by Ergou and killing a team of people was nothing. There were many two-legged people in the world, and they could just recruit another batch.

The most important thing was that he underestimated the relationship between Ergou and the King of Qi.

He originally thought that Ergou was just a small follower of the King of Qi, and the wings he cultivated were not important.

Some time ago, through official channels, we learned that the master of King Qi was arrested and imprisoned. This was the time when the wall fell and the public pushed him.

In addition, there is an imperial edict to punish traitors, so we just take this opportunity to cut off the two dogs.

What he didn't expect was that Ergou turned out to be King Qi's lifesaver, and he also left an IOU written in blood that owed him his life.

This was something he had not expected before. If he just took advantage of King Qi's misfortune and killed one of his men, the impact would not be too great.

But if it is a life-saving grace, let's put it another way. No matter how unlucky King Qi is, he is still the emperor.

If he really wanted to take revenge at all costs, he really couldn't afford it.

So now he knows clearly that Ergou is taking revenge, but he can only suffer a hidden loss.

Moreover, I just received news about the traces of Anchang County's classic history.

그In the study room of his home, he then reported silently that all the secret rooms and warehouses in his home had been moved cleanly.

Not even a single iron nail was left.

If this incident is related to officers and soldiers being swallowed by snakes.

It is easy to deduce that it was Ergou who did it.

In addition to retaliating, it was actually showing his fangs as a demonstration.

On the surface, in the official sense, he can't fight, but he can not follow the rules, and he can start from behind.

As a result, the new county governor 꺶그 became more cautious about Ergou.

He was thinking that if the snake swallowed up the cult's foundation-building monk, it would probably swallow him in one gulp.

Unexpectedly, he had been the local emperor in Anchang County for decades. He followed the rules and regulations, and everyone who saw him would be trembling with fear.

Now that he has been promoted to a county guard, he still has to swallow his anger.

No matter how aggrieved the county magistrate is, he can only tolerate it for the time being and seek revenge later when he finds a suitable opportunity.
