Mortal Mirror

"Green Scale Zombie, everyone be careful!"

Li Ergou recognized the green figure at a glance and shouted a warning. The others had already heard Li Ergou talk about the Green Scale Zombie's power, so they immediately gathered together as instructed, so they could support each other.

Behind the Green Scale Zombie, there were actually three Purple Fur Zombies following. They came aggressively and arrived quickly.

Ye Wanwan had already aimed her arrow at the Green Scale Zombie, but when the arrow was fired, it was slapped down by the zombie before it reached its face. This thing's reaction speed was extremely fast.

Li Ergou snorted coldly at this scene. Although the Green Scale Zombie was powerful, he was not to be trifled with. He knew the zombie's weakness.

Before he could think more, the Green Scale Zombie had already charged up with immense and terrifying power.

Just as he was about to summon his Fish Scale Sword, a huge body rushed up from behind him. The thick claws directly grabbed the Green Scale Zombie. This guy was none other than the Chicken King.

The Chicken King was ferocious, and its claws contracted violently. Cracking sounds came from the Green Scale Zombie's body.

The Green Scale Zombie roared and bit down on the Chicken King's toe, but the scales on the Chicken King's feet were harder than steel. The Green Scale Zombie's bite only produced sparks and couldn't pierce its scales.

The Chicken King lowered its head and pecked fiercely at its head. Li Ergou really didn't expect the Chicken King to be so powerful. The Green Scale Zombie, an existence impervious to blades and spears, had its head directly pecked off by the Chicken King and died completely.

The remaining three Purple Fur Zombies saw the Black Cat pounce on them and quickly solved one. The remaining two were killed by Ye Wanwan and Meier in cooperation, and the other was killed by Hao Ren Da, Silly Ge, and others.

Li Ergou twitched his mouth when he saw this scene, not expecting that he didn't even have a chance to make a move before they were all taken care of. He was happy in his heart, thinking that these guys were worth raising.

In this battle, a total of more than three hundred zombies were eliminated. Li Ergou, the Chicken King, the Black Cat, Black Beard, and Meier killed nearly half of the zombies, which was a great harvest. Li Ergou was very happy.

Because of the addition of the Chicken King and the others, the group didn't suffer too many casualties this time. Only three people suffered minor injuries. Li Ergou told everyone to cut off the ears of the zombies, as they were proof for future rewards.

After wasting a little time, Li Ergou led everyone to continue moving forward. That day, they encountered several groups of zombies. They avoided zombie groups that were too large, exceeding five hundred. Groups of two or three hundred were just right. Everyone suffered little damage and wouldn't be too tired. In one day, they eliminated three groups of zombies, and the spoils reached more than a thousand zombies.

Li Ergou also outrageously copied the ears, doubling the spoils. Anyway, the money belonged to the imperial court, so why not take advantage of it.

To know, one thousand White Fur Zombies, at eleven taels of silver each, is eleven thousand taels of silver. Doubling the White Fur Zombies to two thousand, the reward would be twenty-two thousand taels of silver. These silver taels can also be copied, turning into forty-four thousand taels of silver.

Surprise, surprise! After some operations, the silver was quadrupled. This is the madness of the bronze mirror! Li Ergou was so happy that he almost fainted.

This doesn't even include the Green Scale Zombie and the Purple Fur Zombies. After a battle, there was an income of more than fifty thousand taels of silver.

Li Ergou, the Chicken King, the Black Cat, Black Beard, and Meier killed nearly half of the zombies, so they only needed to distribute the money for about six hundred zombies, which is six to seven thousand taels of silver.

With so much money, he didn't bother to deduct other people's money. Although the Wanglong Village lads didn't want it, Li Ergou couldn't really not give it. He still forced it on them. He also gave it to the disciples of the Vermilion Bird Academy. Everyone was immediately happy after seeing the money, and their motivation was even greater.

As for Li Ergou's income reaching a staggering forty thousand taels at once, the famine was no longer a problem.

Tiedan covered the silver in his arms, trembling with excitement. He had killed three zombies, which was thirty-three taels of silver! His father could only earn this much silver after decades of blacksmithing. He didn't expect to get it in one day. If his father were alive, it would be great, so he could see that he was promising.

Old Wang Ba was also extremely excited. Did he want to be a Wang Ba? Of course not, but he didn't have the ability and only knew how to farm. Eating was difficult, so what reason did he have to stop his wife from living a happier life?

But now he could prove himself. He no longer needed to rely on his wife to earn money. He really wanted to prove to that dead wife that he was capable of earning money, but it was too late.

Shouhou cried. Although he had money now, Xiaohua had already married. She was the white moonlight in his heart.

If he had money back then, Xiaohua would be his wife. Now it was all too late. He hated this late money and decided to spend it all at the Hundred Flowers Brothel to commemorate his youth.

The youths of Wanglong Village were all very excited, but they knew even more that as long as they followed Ergou and worked hard, this money was just the beginning. So at this moment, the lads of Wanglong Village regarded Li Ergou as their reliance and became more and more intimate.

How could Xiwa not be excited? When had he ever seen so much money? This time, his parents would no longer have to worry about money.

Dabaixiang didn't care much, but who doesn't love money? Lu Yun, Zhang Long, Hao Ren Da, Silly Ge, and a group of constables were all happy in their hearts.

The disciples of the academy, such as Ye Wanwan, were also in a good mood. After all, these people felt that they were no longer useless at home and could earn money. After returning home, they could also throw this money in front of their parents and proudly say, "From now on, I am also a capable person." Just thinking about that scene was awesome.

Everyone was happy to earn money and had worked hard for a day. Li Ergou told everyone to go back and rest well and continue tomorrow. Meier took the Black Cat, the Chicken King, and Black Beard back to the Kusan Courtyard first. Li Ergou promised one chicken per person, after all, these guys had also worked hard and earned so much money for him. He couldn't be stingy.

Li Ergou then rushed directly to the Spirit Item Pavilion, thinking of paying off the famine quickly. He didn't like owing people things, let alone so much money.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked into the Spirit Item Pavilion, he saw Liu Zhiyu quickly running towards him. As soon as they met, he hurriedly said, "Ergou, Ergou, I've been looking for you so hard! Tell brother quickly, how many eggs do you have left?"

"My eggs!" Li Ergou tightened his legs and said speechlessly, "Where do I have eggs? What are you going to do again?"

Liu Zhiyu exclaimed, "Of course not your eggs, but your chicken eggs! You don't know, now your chicken egg prices are going through the roof! One first-generation egg costs five taels of silver, and one second-generation egg can sell for twenty taels of silver!

Ergou, we are going to get rich! Tell brother quickly, how many eggs do you have in your hand? Now the demand exceeds supply, and there is no market price!"

Hearing this, Li Ergou did not speak immediately, but instead showed a pensive look.
