Scumbag: Introduction to Immortal Cultivation[Transmigration Book]

Xiang Xiaolei took Mu Tianye to the fake Taoist's house.

When the fake Taoist saw those two people, he was so frightened that he almost threw away the fly whisk in his hand, and hurriedly tried to close the door.But it was useless to close the door, the courtyard wall was like crossing a threshold to Mu Amano, he could walk in as soon as he lifted his foot.

"Grandpa, my dear grandpa, don't go in there!" The fake Taoist hugged Xiang Xiaolei's trousers, trying to prevent him from entering the main hall.Then he was lightly kicked to the corner by Mu Amano.

Go into the house and have a look, good guy!Fake Taoists are indeed masters of making money!

After the box of silver ingots and gold bars had been returned in full to the families who gave their daughters before, his house was still full of beautiful things, and all kinds of treasures were lined up on the Eight Treasures Pavilion.

What about emerald green jadeite, bright agate with tiger patterns, pearls the size of pigeon eggs, raw suet jade the size of basketballs, not to mention Dengfeng kiln pearl scratches, standing elephant animal face pattern copper, etc. Nao, Longquan kiln celadon-glazed phoenix-ear vase... are all rare and precious antique treasures.

If you take these back, you can even earn back the cost of opening the pawn shop.

Xiang Xiaolei happily hummed a little tune, copied a quilt from the back room, and wrapped all the fragile porcelain and jade in the quilt.Another sheet was pulled off the bed, and pearls, agate jewelry and the like were dumped into the sheet and wrapped up.For the last jade blank, he hung it up with something like a net bag tied with hemp rope.

After packing up three parcels in a row, scraping the false Taoist's house to nothingness, Xiang Xiaolei took a pole, took the three parcels and the original jade, and threw them to Mu Tianye to pick them up.

Mu Tianye watched his pretty little brother rushing in and out sorting out a pile of treasures, and wrapping them up into parcels deftly, he couldn't help admiring him.His little brother really has a talent for being a thief.

The fake Taoist's house was raided, Xiang Xiaolei was in a very happy mood, and the pawn shop opened.

On the opening day, thousands of crackling firecrackers were set off, and the gong and drum team was invited to play and knock, which was very lively.The mayor Xu was forced to cut the ribbon, said a few polite words, and wrote a couplet.The first couplet is "Business is flourishing in the flowers and forests", the second couplet is "there are many good voices in Yingqian and arbor", and the horizontal comment is "the wealth is abundant".

The entire opening ceremony went on for a long time, and everyone in Longtou Town, including the neighboring villages and towns, knew about it.This business is done.

But after doing it, Xiang Xiaolei was worried again, because there was no one to patronize.

Ordinary people lack money, so they can borrow it from neighbors and neighbors; if big families need money, they can get cash by exchanging a few bank notes at the Qianyin shop.What's more, the ordinary people don't have any rare items that can be exchanged for money; the really rare items in the hands of the rich are also reluctant to use them for money.

After coming and going, the business of the pawn shop is quite deserted.

It is precisely because there are too few customers that there is no need for two people to stay in the shop.When Mu Tianye had free time, he began to run out frequently.

Xiang Xiaolei felt a little strange.When Mu Tianye first came, he was very dependent on him, it can be said that he never left him.He is not even willing to ask him to accompany the little girl.Why didn't he control him for a while, started playing and disappeared?

Something is wrong.

In the evening, Xiang Xiaolei said with a lazy look on purpose: "It seems that there is still no business today, let's close the shop early and rest."

Mu Tianye responded very cheerfully, so he lowered the pole supporting the door curtain.

"It's fine for me to come here, you need to go out and play more." Xiang Xiaolei took the pole in his hand, "Young children, you should get to know little girls more."

"Yeah." Mu Tianye replied in a muffled voice, neither admitting nor denying it.

Could it be that he really got the hang of it and went to find the little girl?Xiang Xiaolei decided to take a look.So after Mu Tianye left, he hastily locked the store door and followed him all the way.

Mu Tianye didn't go to those places in the center of the town where there were feasting and feasting, singing houses and dancing pavilions, but went south instead.

The north of Longtou Town faces the Yao River, but the south is surrounded by a dense forest.The forest is luxuriant all year round, regardless of spring and autumn.When the Yao River floods, it will flood Longtou Town, but it will not flood the forest, making the forest more dense and lush all year round, shaded by trees.

Because the forest is dark and dark regardless of day or night, and the miasma is overwhelming, so there are many scary legends.For example, there are vampire bats in it, which can suck people into a mummy. It is also said that there are moving trees in it, which are constantly changing to form ghosts hitting walls and the like.

In addition to legends, some rare and exotic beasts in the forest can be confirmed to exist, such as the rhinoceros horned yak that Mu Tianye hunted for making bone knives.

Based on the above-mentioned strange phenomena, people in the town call this forest "the forest of ghosts".

After solving the mystery of the flooding of the Yaohe River, Xiang Xiaolei once asked the old man in the village, since there is a place that cannot be flooded during the flooding of the Yaohe River, why not migrate to a place with lush forests?After cutting down some trees and burning a wasteland, the ashes from the burnt trees can be used as fertilizer for farming. This can be regarded as a few hundred acres of fertile land. Why not do this?

"Cutting down trees and burning wasteland is absolutely forbidden." The old man said: "Every plant and tree in the ghost forest has spiritual energy and energy. If you cut down a tree, you will be retaliated by the tree spirit. Wouldn't it be dangerous for the world to let the rare and exotic beasts in the forest come out?"

Another old man nodded and said, "This forest of ghosts appears very strangely. You see, the trees in our town are all elms and locust trees. These trees are drought-resistant, fall leaves in autumn and winter, and have small leaves. Longtou Town is dry and rainless. Although the Yao River will flood in spring and summer, it will be dry enough to expose the riverbed in autumn and winter. Therefore, the trees here are scarce, and it is impossible to grow luxuriantly."

"But only the trees in this ghost forest can grow to cover the sky and the sun. I don't know where the water comes from, and I don't know where the tree species come from. What's even more strange is that this ghost forest seems to be transformed overnight. It grows up. People of our previous generation said that we have never seen this forest at all, but one day, it suddenly appeared. You say it’s weird.” The old man stroked his beard and looked at Xiaolei meaningfully. , "If it wasn't for the troubles of gods and monsters, I really can't think of any other way."

But during the years that Ghost Forest existed, there was no unusual weather in the town, so people gradually forgot about it.It is only occasionally mentioned that so-and-so of someone's family strayed into the forest of ghosts, went astray and turned around, and was sent out by the forest again.

All in all, the ghost forest is not harmful, but it is impossible to enter.

Just because ordinary people can't get in doesn't mean Mu Tianye can't get in.

Xiang Xiaolei followed all the way, seeing Mu Tianye entering the forest of ghosts, so he hurriedly followed.

It was getting late, and the forest was dark, gloomy, and full of miasma.But it may be because of becoming a comprehension body, Xiang Xiaolei's eyes can see things in the dark night.

Mu Tianye walked quite lightly along the way.In the place where the vines are densely covered, light the roots and jump up the branches like swallows.Grasping the branch and leaning forward, he escaped the muddy ground when he jumped down.

This is difficult because Xiang Xiaolei, he is a mortal body, he can't jump around as lightly as Mu Tianye.After a few steps, I found that I couldn't keep up.

After walking for a while, he found that he had been sent out by the forest before he knew it.To the north was Longtou Town, and he was still there.

Since I can't keep up with Mu Amano, I'll wait for him here.Xiang Xiaolei was determined to find out what Mu Tianye was doing, so he might as well stay here and catch what's going on.

You can't wait for the left, and you can't wait for the right.When Xiang Xiaolei was a bit discouraged, a few dandies from Linzhen passed by here, saw such a beautiful girl, I don't know if it was a boy or a girl, and they became obscene/evil.

"Little lady, who are you waiting for here?" When a young man in a brown robe was talking to him, he deliberately got very close, "Could it be that you are waiting for...Brother Qing?"

Fuck your love brother!Xiang Xiaolei shook off his arm angrily and was about to go back to the town, but was grabbed by the young man and pulled him into his arms.

"The lights are in the dark, the little lady is waiting for her lover, empty and lonely." Those young people are used to humming obscenities/words/yan/songs, and they opened their mouths in such a tune.

"Let go!" Xiang Xiaolei struggled to break free, but the more he struggled, the little hooligan hugged him tighter and tighter.

"A fierce little lady, just what I want." The little rascal picked him up and carried him on his shoulders as he spoke, "We don't need to call you a girl when we go to Huayue Tower today, I think this little lady looks like a girl." More attractive than those girls."

Xiang Xiaolei was carried on his shoulders like a sack, with his head down and his face pressed against the back of the little rascal.

"Don't tell me it's true, this little girl is so handsome, even Miss Qingyue has been compared. Our brothers are lucky today." Another hooligan raised his face and looked closer. Look, a bad breath sprayed on his face, "Brother Hu, how about letting me take a sip?"

When he was approaching, Xiang Xiaolei pulled out the bone knife and cut towards the man's throat.

The bone knife was extremely sharp, and when it wiped the neck, it cut the artery on the spot, and blood spurted out immediately, splashing on Xiaolei's face.

The person carrying him only felt a heat on his back, which was the heat of a large amount of blood splashing on his body.He wanted to grab Xiang Xiaolei's feet on his back and shake it off, but in the next second, Xiang Xiaolei pierced the bone knife into his back.
