Half-demon Raising Immortals

Chapter 243 Meng Dahe

The crescent moon hangs high.

The night wind is cold.

Lu Tong sat at the break, drinking alone.

Dian Si'er left, and the hall suddenly became empty.

Ming Ming Dian's boss and Dian's second son are both there, and they run around like a cat chasing a mouse from time to time.

But it didn't feel lively at all, only noisy.

It wasn't until this moment that he realized that he had been used to Dian Si'er by his side all along.

When a person leaves, it's like losing a piece of his soul.

"Hey!"

He sighed, a little unable to bear the loneliness, walking back and forth in the hall.

"Boss?"

Erhu's voice came from outside.

Lu Tong was shocked for a moment, strode out and said, "Here you come? Come on, let's drink together."

"Boss, the fifth child is back, outside the formation, do you want to call in?"

"Call, the more people, the better."

Erhu was a little confused, opened the formation and brought in a middle-aged man with a round face and a snub nose.

"Qi Peng, I have met the leader!"

He waved his hand and said, "Come in!"

at the table.

A plate of dried meat and three jars of wine.

Lu Tong took a big gulp from the jar, and finally felt better.

"Qipeng, just came back from Yunying City?"

"Turn back, I just came back."

Qi Peng put down his wine bowl and stood up to answer.

"sit down!"

Erhu also said: "Old Wu, the leader doesn't pay attention to that, he talks when he needs to, and drinks when he needs to drink."

He took the wine bowl.

Erhu immediately picked up the wine jar and poured the wine on it.

Lu Tong: "Tell me, find out what happened."

"Boss, Meng Dahe is a good man."

"Ok?"

He glanced at Qi Peng and said, "Have you seen Meng Dahe?"

"No."

"You've never seen anyone before, so you know he's a good person?"

Qi Peng smelled the aroma of the wine, swallowed his throat, and said: "I asked dozens of people, and everyone who asked him praised him. This kind of person is not a good person, there will be no good people in the world."

Lu Tong was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, then immediately shook his head and said, "Impossible, who are you asking?"

He also stayed in Yunying City, and never heard of Meng Dahe's good reputation.

"Ask the guy at the grain store."

"Haha."

Lu Tong said with a smile: "Of course the man said that the master is a good person. You ask Erhu, am I a good person?"

Holding a bowl of wine, Erhu also smiled.

Qi Peng shook his head and continued: "I also asked people in the neighborhood, most of them are women, some are old and some are young."

He put away his smile, looked serious, and said, "What's going on? What kind of good deeds did Meng Dahe do?"

"Sell grain. Ever since Dahe Chamber of Commerce started selling grain, the price of grain in Yunying City has always been cheaper than other cities."

Lu Tong lowered his head and began to recall.

I didn't pay attention to it before, but when I think about it carefully, it seems that Yunying City is indeed the cheapest of all the places I have been to.

Qi Peng took a sip of his wine and continued: "There was also fog in Yunying City, and the commercial roads outside were cut off. Not only did the food price not increase, but they also gave out free porridge."

He frowned.

This is the first time I've heard of it.

At that time on Qianxue Mountain, I didn't know the situation in the city, but it was true that the commercial road was broken.

"Why give porridge?"

"I heard from an old lady that Meng Dahe started from nothing. He was a hungry person before, and he doesn't want anyone to be hungry again."

"Self-made? Real or fake?"

"Really, I made a special inquiry and went to the west of the city to find out the neighbors of Meng Dahe. After Meng Dahe got rich, he rebuilt the whole street."

Lu Tong frowned, feeling something was wrong.

The Dahe Chamber of Commerce can be so big, with so many interests involved, it is impossible to belong to Meng Dahe alone.

A person can do good deeds without making money.

But for a group of people, it is impossible for everyone to show kindness.

"Who is the backer of Meng Dahe?"

"what?"

"The Dahe Chamber of Commerce must have a big backer behind it."

"I don't know. Chief, I can only get in touch with the people below. Only the people above know this kind of news."

He picked up the wine bowl, took a sip, and said, "Where are the people from Canxianglou? Didn't you help?"

"No."

Qi Peng thought about it for a while, and said cautiously: "After the people from Canxianglou received the letter, they never showed up again."

Lu Tong shook his head with a smile, and put down the wine bowl.

"Forget it. Has anyone found it?"

"I found it. I carried the burden and walked the streets and alleys selling mountain goods for a few days. I almost went around all the workshops. I haven't met anyone in the village."

When he heard about carrying a load, he suddenly thought of bird feathers, and couldn't help but pause.

At the beginning, Bird Feather also acted as a traveling merchant, walking around the streets looking for opportunities to start.

"Boss, what I said is true."

Lu Tong came back to his senses, blinked his eyes, and asked: "How do you know, maybe they do as the Romans do."

"I can tell that the people in the village are used to walking on mountain roads, and the outside looks different when they walk. Also, I peddle in the mountain dialect, but no one pays attention."

He nodded, but he was even more puzzled.

Meng Dahe is a good person.

The person who was taken away disappeared.

Lutong thought of hooves again.

At the beginning, in the eyes of outsiders, Hoof was also a good person, but secretly he killed people and practiced evil methods.

so similar.

A good reputation makes it easier to do bad things.

In other words, some people create a good reputation with great fanfare just to do bad things.

The three talked and drank.

After drinking until midnight, Qi Peng was so drunk that he murmured: "Meng Dahe, good man..."

Erhu threw Qi Peng out to sober up, returned to the main hall and said: "Boss, the baby is born."

He drank a lot, his eyes were a little bit drunk, and he said, "When?"

"Just today, when the sun was setting. The mountain wind was strong just now, so I didn't dare to carry it out."

"In two days, when your breath is stable, come and hug me to see."

Lu Tong sat for a while, and suddenly asked: "What does it look like, do you have tiger hair?"

"No."

He breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "It's not good, it's not good."

If a girl has tiger hair all over, it is really ugly.

Erhu smiled bitterly and said, "It's a pity that my teeth are not good."

"Huya?"

"Well, it's all over the mouth."

Lu Tong leaned back on the chair, waved his hands, and said, "It's all right. The teeth are in the mouth, but you can't see them from the outside. Si'er's teeth are also black hooks."

Erhu's wry smile grew stronger, and he said helplessly, "Boss, the baby's teeth are too big, and they grow densely, and some of them are exposed."

He fell silent.

Thinking of the second apprentice as a grinning little girl, I couldn't help but feel a little headache.

……

The array was touched.

Lu Tong was startled awake, opened his eyes, and felt dizzy for a while. After waking up, he went to the table and poured a cup of tea.

Herbal tea.

Looking at the dark brown tea, he couldn't help thinking of Dian Si'er.

"Hey!"

After drinking the herbal tea in one gulp, he walked outside.

"Senior Sister Tu, please!"

The two sat down separately.

Tu Kunshun asked directly, "Has junior brother come back yet?"

"came back."

Tu Kunshun's expression lifted, and he asked, "How is it? Where's the person?"

He shook his head unhurriedly and said, "I didn't find it."

"What did Meng Dahe say?"

Lu Tongtong: "I didn't say it. Sister, Meng Dahe is not an ordinary person. He doesn't want to say it, and I don't want to offend him."

After speaking, wait quietly.

Tu Kunshun lowered his head to think for a moment, raised his head, and said seriously: "Junior brother, have you heard of Goddess Tears?"

"what?"

"A rare liquid."
