Starting from the Tiger Demon Yaksha, the demon immortality

Chapter 54 53 Blackmail and Get a Windfall

good?
Li Cunxiao was stunned. Before he could speak, Zhang Lishi followed up and said:
"My escort agency can afford to keep an ordinary fine horse. County Master Murong is the head of the county, so the precious horse he raises must be extraordinary."

Murong Bai frowned and looked at Zhang Lishi deeply.

"Take the Pegasus Bloodline from my house to the Flying Tiger Escort Agency."

After giving the order, he immediately stood up and left. The housekeeper in his mansion was surprised when he heard it, but still did as he was told.

This time, Zhang Lishi did not stop him. Li Cunxiao even saw a triumphant smile on his rough face, and then he turned to look at the other two families.

"Master Xiao, Master Ye, look!"

Look? Even Murong Bo, the county lord, took a step back. How else could he look?
"Losing money will ward off disasters, losing money will ward off disasters. Zhang Lishi, this tiger, cannot be provoked for the time being."

Comforting himself in this way, Ye Zhiqiu forced a smile.

"I heard that your disciple broke through in two months, he is truly a natural talent. However, with the three hurdles of tendons, bones, and skin, if there is a magic medicine to help, it will be twice as effective with half the effort."

"It just so happens that when my son was training his skin, I bought a batch of water and fire ointment from Brother Song. There's still enough for one person left, which is exactly what Li Sanlang needs."

When Ye Rongzu heard that his father was willing to spend money, he was relieved at first, but then he became a little confused - the water and fire ointment had been used up long ago, so how could there be any left?

With a glance, he happened to see Ye Zhiqiu winking at Song Qifeng. Seeing the latter with an expression of having slaughtered a fat sheep, he immediately understood that his father was just pretending to be rich, and he felt bitter in his heart.

"Brother Ye is very considerate."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lishi even addressed him in a more affectionate manner. Li Cunxiao couldn't help but smile when he saw his expression, but he also understood why the other party reacted that way.

There are three major trainings in the muscle realm: muscles, bones, and membranes. If you just use blood and energy to flush and cleanse them, I don’t know how long it will take to complete the three trainings.

Therefore, each sect has its own secret medicine corresponding to the martial arts.

For example, the secret tiger bone chalcedony cream and tiger gall wine of the Tiger Demon Fist can respectively accelerate the cleansing of bones and tendons, making bones as hard as steel and tendons as strong as iron.

The Water and Fire Paste is the secret medicine used by the Song family of the Chai Gang to practice the Iron Shirt martial arts. It is extremely effective in tempering the skin membrane. It is generally not sold to the public and is only exchanged as a rare resource for senior executives.

Ye Zhiqiu was willing to lower the price, on the one hand, of course, to appease Zhang Lishi's anger. After all, the Feihu Escort Agency was said to be an escort agency, but in essence, it controlled several major trade routes of Chuqiu City to the outside world, and they could not be easily offended.

On the other hand, it also brought in the Chai Gang to support the show, which was equivalent to both parties expressing their stance together, and Zhang Lishi could not continue to pursue it.

Of course, there is one last point.

Ye Zhiqiu was naturally resentful of the Xiao family for causing his family to suffer such an undeserved disaster. Since he was going to bleed, he might as well be straightforward and put the Xiao family on the line:

My Ye family had nothing to do with Li Cunxiao's affairs, but we have suffered so much loss. As the most suspected family, shouldn't the Xiao family show a little more sincerity?

"The County Master gave me the Pegasus Horse, Brother Ye gave me the secret medicine for strengthening the skin, and my escort agency also has the secret medicine for strengthening the bones and tendons, Brother Xiao. What do you think is missing?"

Xiao Yan looked at Zhang Lishi, the smiling tiger, and knew that he had to bleed today, so he said in a muffled voice.

"Just tell me what you want."

"I want the demon fetus with the cloud-walking shoes."

As soon as Zhang Lishi finished speaking, Xiao Ji was so shocked that he almost jumped up:
"Dad! You don't."

"Shut up!"

Xiao Yan slapped Xiao Ji, causing him to stagger. The latter's eyes turned red after being slapped.

"that's me"

"That's your apology to Li Sanlang!"

Xiao Yan did not give his son any chance to speak and glared at Zhang Lishi hatefully.

"After I get back, I'll have someone send the things to the escort agency."

After saying this, he roughly grabbed his son and left with his tribesmen.

Li Cunxiao watched everything, and for a moment he had no other thoughts except giving Zhang Lishi a thumbs up.

Master, it’s so high and hard!
Since such a disappointing incident happened during the autumn hunt, it was naturally impossible to continue.

Those disciples of the martial arts school who had intended to show off their skills in order to advance their careers could only return home with their master.

The convoys drove back to Chuqiu City in twos and threes, forming a long dragon.

Without exception, in almost every team, there was someone muttering a name.

"Li Cunxiao broke through the muscle realm in two months and was captured by a second-level demon, but he was able to escape unscathed. This boy should not be underestimated."

Thinking of this, Ye Zhiqiu subconsciously glanced at his son, with a hint of impatience in his tone.

"Why hasn't Ye Chengxiao's matter been resolved yet?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Rongzu said angrily:
"Father, that branch is a disciple of Zhang Lishi after all, so I can't do anything drastic."

"I originally wanted Xiao Mei to pick Ye Chengxiao's essence, but that bitch accepted my favor but didn't do the job. However, Li Cunxiao suddenly appeared this time, and looking at Ye Chengxiao's appearance, he seemed to be a little devastated."

"The Escort Agency is currently flourishing. Once the storm subsides, I will find an opportunity to destroy Ye Chengxiao."

After hearing this, Ye Zhiqiu's expression relaxed and he nodded.

The side branches of the main line are relatives in name only, but in reality they are masters and slaves.

Seeing that Ye Chengxiao had good talent, Ye Zhiqiu had some thoughts of keeping him to assist his son.

Who would have thought that a mere side branch would develop such a rebellious heart?

If the world was not in chaos and the clansmen were not in danger of risking their lives, he should have been killed long ago to serve as a warning to others.

Now that my son knows to depose rather than kill, he can be considered to be able to judge the situation.

But Ye Zhiqiu still warned:
"After he's crippled, have someone guard him. Then, when his father makes a mistake, kick the three of them out of the family house and kill them all. There's no future trouble. Remember?"

"Dad is really thoughtful."

Ye Rongzu nodded in agreement without a trace of doubt. Ye Zhiqiu was the head of the Ye family. He said that if Ye Chengxiao's father made a mistake, he would definitely make a mistake.

"The struggle between the direct line and the collateral line has always been like this. Ye Chengxiao, not removing your family from the family tree is already a sign of my father's and my kindness."

Ye Rongzu sneered and asked again,

"Father, County Master Murong left in a hurry. Is there any..."

"Li Cunxiao, you deserve to die!"

Xiao Ji staggered down from Xiao Yan's carriage with a ferocious look on his face, bruises on his face and footprints on his silk clothes. The servants beside him all lowered their heads, not daring to look at him.

He hadn't even had time to do anything, but he had lost the magic treasure he had paid a huge sum of money for, and he had also lost face in front of all the big and small forces in Chuqiu City.

When Xiao Ji thought of this, the anger in his heart could not be suppressed.

"My Cloud-Walking Shoes, Li Cunxiao! Li Cunxiao!"

He did not dare to resent Zhang Lishi who caused all this, and Li Cunxiao, who benefited from it, naturally became the object of hatred.

He suddenly grabbed a maid in the caravan, and regardless of her screams, threw her into his carriage, then jumped in with red eyes.

After a burst of low gasps and groans, Xiao Ji lifted the curtain of the car, and calmness returned to his eyes.

"Someone is coming."

The guards on the carriage rode forward and bowed their heads respectfully.

Inadvertently, through the opened curtain, a charming face with a flushed face came into view on the couch of the carriage.

But the light of life had been lost in those eyes.

"Want it? Here's a reward for you."

The guard felt a chill in his heart and shook his head vigorously. Seeing this, Xiao Ji loosened the door curtain and left a cold remark.

"Go call that bitch Xiao Mei over here and tell her..."

"Li Cunxiao is so terrifying, his muscles are broken in two months."

In the Chai Gang's headquarters, Song Qifeng looked at the bustling traffic at the foot of Pingqiu Mountain, turned around and instructed his son:

"We must get close to this person and win him over. You saw Zhang Lishi's attitude towards Li Cunxiao today. If we handle it properly, he might be able to add some strength to our Chai Gang."

Song Qingshan nodded and agreed:

"Father is absolutely right. The three families in the inner city have always controlled Chuqiu, and they regard the Flying Tiger Escort Agency and our Chai Gang as outsiders. For so many years, even someone as powerful as Zhang Lishi has only been able to gain a foothold in the outer city."

"Now that natural disasters are everywhere and refugees are everywhere, it's time to re-establish the rules. If we can use Li Cunxiao to win over Zhang Lishi to our side, the master of Chuqiu City should change his surname. However..."

Song Qifeng noticed the hesitation in his son's eyes and continued.

"But Murong Bo and Zhang Lishi are both ranked as the two greatest masters in the city. Even I, your father, cannot match them. Even if we cooperate, how can we guarantee that we won't be a scapegoat for the others?"

Seeing Song Qingshan nod, he chuckled, not knowing what he was thinking about.

"Qingshan, this world is so big, and there are so many masters. Just because there is no one in Chuqiu City who can defeat them doesn't mean that there is no one outside Chuqiu City who can match these two."

"Oh, Dad, there's a beast tide coming today, it's quite strange."

"Perhaps a demon in the mountains advanced and scared away the other demons. I will send someone to investigate later."

Song Qifeng said this casually and had no intention of explaining further. Seeing this, Song Qingshan could only bow and leave.

But he had not walked far when he saw a man in white linen being led into the tea room by his father's personal butler.

The man was tall and his features could not be seen clearly from the side, but he had six scars on his head.

"Monk?"

In Song Qingshan's impression, this person has come three or four times in the past month, which can be said to be frequent.

But his father Song Qifeng did not mention it at all. He felt something in his heart, and when the housekeeper came out again, he could not help but ask.

"Old Song, who is this monk?"

The man called Old Song is a servant of the Song family. He has been serving Song Qingshan's grandfather since his generation. He has watched Song Qifeng and his son grow up.

As a "three-term veteran", Old Song has always been very strict with his words. Upon hearing this, he just smiled and replied:

"In reply to the young master, that person is Elder Kong from the newly built Wuming Temple in the nearby mountains. Our Chai Gang is the master of the Seven Mountains of Pingqiu, so of course he has to come and pay his respects."

Why do I need to come so many times to pay my respects?
Of course Song Qingshan didn't believe it, but he knew that Old Song was his father's confidant, and he wouldn't get anything out of him no matter how much he asked. He could only send the smiling Old Song away and walked away thoughtfully.

Could this Monk Kong be the helper outside the city that my father mentioned?

Judging from his aura, it seems to be similar to mine, only at the muscle level, and not yet at the complete third level of training.

"Young Master! Young Master!"

Song Qingshan frowned and shouted at the figure running towards him:

"What are you so noisy about? If you can't explain anything, I'll punish you by putting you in the slaughterhouse until the end of the year."

The man paused when he heard this and forced a flattering smile on his face.

"Master, please don't be angry. It's just that there's a wicked slave down there. I'm angry for you."

Song Qingshan was very impatient when he heard this. "Whether it's beating or killing, just do it as you see fit. Do you still need me to teach you this?"

After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave. The man quickly followed him, spewing a string of words like firecrackers.

"Young Master is right, but this kid called Wei He is no ordinary slave. He followed the team into the mountains yesterday and was lucky enough to dig up a ginseng treasure that was nearly sixty years old."

Song Qingshan paused, "A ginseng treasure that's nearly sixty years old? Are you sure?"
