Longevity from Liao Zhai

Chapter 167 Paradise Building

Qianzhou City.

Zhou Ping walked on the bustling and lively street.

"Mutton soup."

"Tang Haws, the best Tang Haws."

"Sir, look, these are freshly picked pears."

"Beef buns, fresh out of the pot."

Zhou Ping walked and ate all the way. It must be said that the nightlife here is much better than that in Qinghe County.

Qinghe County becomes deserted at night.

Qianzhou City is indeed the core city of Qianzhou County. There are so many things to eat and do here that Zhou Ping is simply overwhelmed.

"Uncle, come and play."

In front of a music bureau, Zhou Ping was almost beaten with facial cleanser by a girl.

Inside the Jiaofangsi, Fan Shiyi was moving back and forth between several girls.

"Disgusting! I want to vomit." Xiaoqing felt a chill and climbed onto the windowsill to breathe in fresh air.

"Strange, why does it smell like Zhou Ping?" Xiaoqing tried to smell the air. She smelled a familiar smell.

Xiao Qing stood up, but saw nothing: "Oh, I must have wanted to absorb his Yang Qi, so I had hallucinations."

Xiaoqing thought about it and decided that she must have smelled it wrong, because Zhou Ping couldn't be here.

"Oh, it's so boring without the red-clothed female ghost." Xiao Qing wagged his tail, looking a little uninterested.

At this time, Zhou Ping was escaping from a group of girls. He did not notice Fan Shiyi and Xiaoqing.

The ghost bride has a mark left by Zhou Ping on her body, and he used this mark to teleport to Qianzhou City. However, he is not in his original appearance now, and has transformed into someone else with the help of the Painted Skin Mask.

"This place is much more lively than Qinghe County. You can come here often in the future." Zhou Ping left a drop of blood on a tree in a remote corner, and it turned into a mark.

There were two marks in total, and Zhou Ping removed the mark on the ghost bride.

There are two seals, one in Qianzhou City and the other in Qinghe County.

Zhou Ping would often come to Qianzhou City in the future, so he left his mark here.

Zhou Ping came to Qianzhou City for two main reasons: one was to fulfill a soldier's wish, and the other was to cause trouble for Zhao Tiancheng.

When Zhou Ping was in the secret realm, he once met a dying soldier. The soldier's last wish was to talk to a girl named Xiaofang.

The sergeant hoped that the girl he missed would not have to wait for him.

Zhou Ping looked at the panel. There was a white dot on the panel. The white dot was the location where the girl was.

The escort panel can store tasks, and Zhou Ping can call up the task as long as he thinks about it.

Give the soldiers a message: the reward for this mission is ten years of life.

"It's a hundred miles outside Qianzhou City." Zhou Ping looked at the white dot, thinking. He remembered that the location of the white dot seemed to be in the west of the city, but now it has become the east of the city.

"Let's not worry about this for now, let's go find Song Tianlong's treasure." Zhou Ping licked his lips, his eyes full of brilliance.

Zhou Ping once killed a gang leader in Qianzhou City and got three keys from him. According to Song Tianlong's memory, these three keys can open three treasure chests.

The three treasure chests contain Song Tianlong’s treasures!

Zhou Ping went to three houses according to Song Tianlong's memory, and then the ghost baby took away three treasure chests.

All three houses were inhabited, but they did not find the treasure chest.

The treasure chests were buried in a dry well, a stove and underground, which were quite hidden.

The three treasure chests were filled with gold, silver and jewelry, but no banknotes. Zhou Ping didn't know much about jewelry, but he knew that he must have made a fortune!
Get rich!
A gang leader has accumulated treasures through burning, killing, looting and storage over the years. This is definitely a fortune!

But in addition to the jewelry, Zhou Ping also saw an account book in the treasure chest.

The account book records Song Tianlong's income and expenditure in detail.

First of all, there is income. Every penny comes from extortion or murder.

Among the people killed, which one offended himself and which one offended "Zhao".

The word Zhao appeared many times in the account book. Zhou Ping read Song Tianlong's memory again and found that the word Zhao represented the governor of Zhao County.

During the Wei Dynasty, there were nine states and nine counties. The governor of each county was a high-ranking official who managed the people of the state and county.

It can be said that the county magistrate has enormous power.

In Qianzhou County, the county magistrate is the local emperor.

Zhou Ping had long known that Song Tianlong was the hidden man of the Zhao County Magistrate, but he did not expect that Song Tianlong actually helped the county magistrate do so many bad things.

"On the third day of the first lunar month, the Liu family in the west of the city killed the husband and took his wife, and used them for Zhao's entertainment, and then killed them."

"On the sixth day of the seventh month, the Zhang family in the east of the city stole their young daughter for Zhao's entertainment, and then killed her."

"On August 16, the Yuan family in the north of the city was exterminated."

Zhou Ping looked at the records in the diary, his eyes slightly chilled, and then he sighed deeply. The diary was filled with bloody accounts.

"It's true that a dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse's child will dig holes!" Zhou Ping had wanted to take action against Zhao Tiancheng for a long time, but now it has become just the two of them, father and son.

Based on the things recorded in the account book alone, the governor of Zhao County deserved to be killed a hundred times.

These ordinary people did not commit any crime, it was just because the girls in their families were pretty, so they were given as gifts by Zhao Tianlong.

Or maybe the governor of Zhao was in a bad mood and disliked the person, which became the reason why Song Tianlong killed people.

In short, the governor of Zhao County asked Song Tianlong to do many things that were against the laws of nature and human ethics. Even one of these things would be a capital crime under the laws of Wei!

"This family deserves to die."

Zhou Ping left the city, and along the way, he bought whatever he liked. He was going to deliver a message to the dead soldier.

He did not do it for the ten-year life bonus, but wanted to do his best for the dead soldiers.

Along the way, there were fewer and fewer villages and the population became increasingly sparse.

After walking for sixty miles, Zhou Ping came to a depression. Looking at the white dot on the map, he found that it was just below the depression.

"This place doesn't look like a place where people live." When Zhou Ping was wondering, a dark shadow suddenly emerged.

The shadow was wearing a mask. The mask had horns and was very scary.

The masked man was holding a white rabbit in his arms.

"Brother, take out the valuables on you." The masked man snorted coldly and touched the rabbit.

The white rabbit sniffed the air and said, "Don't let him go. I can smell that this man has something very valuable."

Zhou Ping touched his chin and then expanded his perception range.

The area covered three hundred feet, and only he and the masked man were there.

As Rabbit finished speaking, the masked man took a step back and asked, "Fellow Daoist, are you going to the Paradise Tower?"

When Zhou Ping heard the masked man's words, his eyes were full of confusion.

The masked man said, "So it's not him. That's easy."

As soon as the masked man finished speaking, he threw the rabbit in his arms away.

Seeing that the rabbit was about to hit Zhou Ping, Zhou Ping had no intention of dodging at all.

It’s not that Zhou Ping didn’t hide, but in his perception, there was no rabbit at all.

The white rabbit is an illusion!

Zhou Ping suddenly turned around and chopped him off. "How is this possible?" The masked man's eyes widened. His body had been split in half.

Immediately afterwards, the masked man's body disappeared, leaving only a white rabbit split in half on the ground.

There is no masked man, only a rabbit monster.

The rabbit demon thought that his illusion could deceive Zhou Ping because he had deceived others many times, but he didn't expect that Zhou Ping could see through it.

Although half of its body was missing, the rabbit demon still wanted to drag itself away.

But it was running less and less vigorously, and the rabbit demon looked back. Blood kept flowing out of its body along the bloodstains on the ground.

The blood that flowed out was absorbed by a knife.

The rabbit demon's eyes gradually lost their spirit, and it suddenly thought of something: "Don't kill me, I will take you to the Paradise Building, which is your favorite place to go, and you can enjoy the bliss of paradise there."

Zhou Ping said nothing, but the speed at which the Demonic Blade Thousand Blades absorbed blood became even faster.

Soon, all that was left on the ground was a rabbit skin and a mask.

Zhou Ping took the rabbit skin away, and then took away its memory with a wave of his hand.

In addition to these, there was a bag on the ground, which contained a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and an iron plate.

There is a map on the iron plate, and there is a dot on the map.

"Huh?" Zhou Ping looked at the dot on the iron plate, which was exactly the same as the dot on his panel.

Zhou Ping put away the mask and started heading towards his destination, while at the same time starting to look at the rabbit demon's memories.

The rabbit demon was originally practicing in the mountains, and later accidentally encountered a seriously injured human.

After sucking the blood of humans, the rabbit demon's cultivation level immediately rose. It began to abandon its original way of cultivation and turned to hunting humans.

Soon, the rabbit demon's cultivation reached the eighth level, but it never broke through to the seventh level.

On this day, when the rabbit demon was hunting pedestrians in the mountains, he accidentally found a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum in the mountains.

This Ganoderma lucidum means little to the rabbit demon. It wants to exchange it for some money in Qianzhou City and then exchange it for magical tools or other things.

It's just that it has never been satisfied with the price of Ganoderma lucidum, so it has never made a purchase.

Then, it met a masked man, who gave him a mask and an iron plate.

The three words "Jilelou" are written on the iron plate.

Paradise Building!
The rabbit demon had heard of this place from others.

The Paradise Building is very mysterious.

It is said that the things inside are things that ordinary people have never seen and dare not imagine.

As long as you go in, you can have whatever you want!

Besides, Ji Le Lou is not a place you can find whenever you want. It is always Ji Le Lou that finds you, and then you can go to Ji Le Lou.

The moment the rabbit demon got the iron plate, he immediately felt terrified. He felt like he was being kept in captivity, as if he was seen through by others.

But it quickly went from creepy to exciting.

There is everything in the Paradise Tower. Maybe I can get the cultivation method of the demon clan, or buy some magic weapon.

So, the rabbit demon prepared to go to the Paradise Tower.

However, on the way to Ji Le Tower, the rabbit demon met Zhou Ping.

The rabbit demon wanted to take advantage of the situation, but he was killed when he failed to force his way in.

Zhou Ping was silent for a while after reading the rabbit demon's memory. Paradise? Could it be that the girl that the dead soldier missed was working there?
Zhou Ping's mind moved, and he changed again. This time, he turned into a rabbit demon.

However, according to the rabbit demon's memory, Zhou Ping needs to wear a mask and an iron plate to enter the Paradise Tower.

Zhou Ping also studied iron plates and masks.

The iron plate was very ordinary, but very hard, and there seemed to be a formation on it protecting him.

There is also the mask. The mask is very strange. Just now, there seemed to be a cloud of mist around the rabbit monster wearing the mask, and Zhou Ping couldn't see its true form.

The mask serves as a camouflage.

"It's a masquerade, hehe." Zhou Ping smiled obscenely and put on the mask.

Zhou Ping arrived at the destination according to the markings on the escort panel and iron plate.

This is a depression, and in front of us is a lake.

Looking around, I didn't see anything else.

"Illusion?" Zhou Ping used his perception range. The perception range could break illusions.

As the illusion was broken, Zhou Ping saw a seven-story building.

It turns out that the depression was an illusion. There was no lake here at all, only a building.

Zhou Ping thought for a moment and walked into the "lake". When he stepped into the barrier, a person immediately appeared in front of him.

This man was not tall, but he exuded a cold aura. Although he was wearing a mask, he only had a right ear and no left ear.

Yizier glanced at Zhou Ping and immediately felt like he was being seen through.

Fortunately, this feeling was only fleeting. Yi Er looked at the iron plate and the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum in Zhou Ping's hand, then nodded: "Go in."

Zhou Ping did not put the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum into the storage jade, he was pretending to be a rabbit demon.

Zhou Ping took a deep breath and said nothing.

Zhou Ping cautiously turned an ear over it and then carefully walked into the building.

The three words "Jile Building" are written on the plaque of the tall building!

"It's actually pure gold!" Zhou Ping was shocked! He didn't expect that this plaque was actually pure gold.

Such a big piece of gold is probably more valuable than all my property put together.

Zhou Ping resisted the urge to put the plaque in his pocket, and pushed the door open and went inside.

As soon as I opened the door, I smelled a strange fragrance.

Smelling the fragrance, Zhou Ping felt a burning sensation in his lower abdomen, and then his mind became a little dizzy.

At the same time, the demon seed on Zhou Ping's left hand also moved strangely.

The strange fragrance seduced Zhou Ping, and the demon seed, combined with this fragrance, made Zhou Ping's desire stronger and stronger.

But this desire soon subsided.

The Ruyi cassock on Zhou Ping's left hand, together with the Buddha's power in his body, suppressed this desire.

As his desire was suppressed, Zhou Ping saw everything in front of him.

On both sides of the first floor are two pools, which emit a strong aroma of wine. In the pools are two trees made of gold and jade, on which grow strange fruits.

Dozens of graceful women, wearing only thin clothes.

The thin shirts were soaked with alcohol and stuck to their bodies, further highlighting their beautiful and seductive bodies.

"My fellow Taoist, please come this way. May I, a Taoist priest of the tenth rank, serve you?"

"Fellow Daoist, I am a ninth-rank warrior!"

"Fellow Daoist, I am an eighth-rank Confucianist. Please choose me."

Zhou Ping was immersed in shock, and several hands had already reached into his arms. One hand was like a poisonous snake, about to bite his vitals.
