Immortality begins with meditation puppets

Chapter 164 The Gao Family Butcher Shop with Hanging Lanterns
"The eldest brother is the case of Xiong Er being scammed!"

The 17th brother loved to frequent the camp's brothels, and his information network was much better than that of Li Hailang, who was focused on rebuilding his career. As soon as he heard that Su Qing had been kidnapped, he knew exactly what had happened.

The main reason is that this matter is too funny, and the news has spread throughout the front-line camp recently.

It's already unusual for a puppeteer to have his puppets sell other puppets.

The puppet sold all the guards' puppets, just like being stripped naked and ravaged, having everything looted.

This makes it even more unusual and fun.

But no matter how fun it is, you can't laugh at this moment.

Li Hailang said calmly:

"Please be aware, Fellow Daoist Su, that since Black Tiger Mountain, my Langtian Gang is no longer what it used to be."

"Let alone robbing fellow Daoists, even when robbing ordinary rogue cultivators, we proceed with extreme caution. This matter is certainly not something I, Li, would have done!"

Brother 17 and Brother 260 are also hurrying to catch up.

"I urge Fellow Daoist Su to investigate thoroughly. Do not let a bad person go unpunished, and do not wrong an innocent person!"

"Without any evidence, Fellow Daoist Su, you cannot slander someone's innocence!"

Seeing that the three of them looked like they had been greatly wronged.

Su Qing remained unmoved.

He knew perfectly well that it was not the three of them who had committed the evil deed.

But as the saying goes, snakes have their paths, and rats have theirs.

He works in the professional circle and isn't familiar with the cultivation circle.

Finding that villain is quite difficult.

Li Hailang was different. He had led his gang to commit crimes in the four cities, and his connections in the robbery and cultivation circle were much stronger than his own.

"I only know that I was robbed by a cultivator, and from the current perspective, Fellow Daoist Li is the most suspicious."

In that case, Fellow Daoist Li will temporarily bear the loss. Would Fellow Daoist Li like to take out the storage bag himself, or would you like me to do it?

Su Qing waved his hand, causing the Explosive War Bears to take a few more steps closer.

It's too much to bully others, it's too much to bully others!
Li Hailang's hand holding the paper was trembling.

He turned to his equally indignant and resentful 17th and 260th brothers and said:

"Hurry up and hand the storage bag over to Fellow Daoist Su, don't waste his time!"

After he respectfully handed over the results of his hard work over the past half month and the accumulation of his initial capital to Su Qing.

Su Qing glanced at the contents of the storage bag, but said with disdain:

"How can this paltry sum make up for my losses, Fellow Daoist Li? You don't want to be unable to stay in this forward camp, do you?"

From this day forward, as long as you remain in this forward camp, the path will lead you there.

I won't make things difficult for you fellow Daoists. If you find a more suspicious villain, I will naturally shift my focus. I urge you three to keep up the good work!

Bullying, too much bullying.

Not only did they rob them, but they also complained that the goods were too bad, and they even planned to keep robbing the three of them!

They robbed cultivators and people, but they knew to change their targets from time to time, so they couldn't just kill one person!

Li Hailang trembled with rage. He strode forward, cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Su Qing, and said:
"Back then on Black Tiger Mountain, you not only slayed the evil spirits, but also served the demoness with your own body, which can be considered as saving us twice."

I, Li, have always kept this in mind and wanted to find an opportunity to repay your kindness. Now that you have given me this opportunity, I am glad.

We will do everything in our power to capture that wicked man and hand him over to you, fellow Daoist!

We have no choice but to find them; otherwise, Langtianbang will take the blame!
Seeing that Li Hailang had agreed, Su Qing took out the portrait of the villain from her storage bag and handed it to the three of them.

Unfortunately, that villain was covered in a white cloth and a robe to conceal his figure that day. Even with his lifelike painting skills, only his eyes could be seen to help people find him.

"My little spirit dog also remembered the scent of that villain. After he finishes selling his goods, Fellow Daoist Li can take it around and follow the scent!"

I can assure you, fellow Daoists, that if we find that wicked person, as long as they compensate me for my losses, any excess will be given to you as compensation for your hard work!"

Su Qing considered herself a person of principle and believed there was no reason to let others work for free. But Li Hailang could only smile bitterly.

With just this 100,000 yuan order, 200,000 yuan in losses, and 400,000 yuan in compensation, even the wicked person probably can't afford to pay it all.

There was no way they could possibly have anything left.

The best outcome for them right now is to find that person as soon as possible and let Su Qing and him fight it out.

After Su Qing swaggered away, Brother 17 and Brother 260, who had been trembling with fear under the watchful eyes of the puppets, came back to life.

"This Su Qing is a real piece of work. He can't even find the real culprit, so what's with him bullying us like this!"

"Don't pay any attention to him, boss. We can just move to another place to make a living!"

"This guy only showed his eyes, but he's obviously a spellcaster. None of these people are easy to mess with. We shouldn't risk offending them for Su Qing's sake!"

"We're facing a tiger in front and a wolf in the back, neither of us are easy to mess with. Let's run!"

Brother 17 and Brother 260 know what's going on.

The curse masters of Qingtian Market are unpredictable and can torture people to the point of wishing they were dead with their sorcery. They are the most dangerous to deal with.

Why would they risk offending a curse master for a loss that Su Qing has absolutely no connection to?

"Do you think I want to do things for Su Qing? Do you think we can just do it when we want to and not do it when we don't want to?"
Look what's flying above us!

Li Hailang, scratching his teeth, said angrily.

The two underlings focused their attention and saw the three bee-like scout puppets flying a hundred feet in the sky. They were immediately filled with despair and fell silent.

"Go!" Li Hailang said fiercely.

"Where to?" the 17th brother asked, somewhat confused.

"You're using the dog to find someone, aren't you? You don't want all the spirit crystals you steal to end up being supplied to Su Qing, do you?"

Li Hailang said helplessly and sadly.

Thinking of him, Li Hailang, so dignified...

Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore; it's pointless anyway.

······
Let professionals handle professional matters.

Feeling relieved, and considering the efforts of Li Hailang and the other two over the past few days, the contents of their three storage bags totaled about ten thousand spirit crystals.

Some success!

This allowed Su Qing to enter the Hundred Treasures Pavilion with a pleasant mindset.

But once inside the treasure pavilion, after scanning the prices of the items,

That good mood vanished instantly.

"One spirit wood costs 120 spirit crystals? This price increase is even more outrageous than last time!"

"An armored war bear costs 13,000 spirit crystals. Is this a war bear made of Heavenly Spirit Gold?"

"First-tier magic artifacts have generally increased in price by 80%, is your Hundred Treasures Pavilion going crazy?!"

Although Su Qing knew from the beginning that prices would rise as the beast tide began.

He himself was also sharpening his knife, ready to fleece a few fat sheep among the rogue cultivators.

But when he himself became the fat sheep, about to be slaughtered by others.

He was really annoyed!

"These unscrupulous merchants deserve to be punished!"

Upon hearing this, Tong Xin, who had just approached, said in a panic:

"We can't let them hang up the lanterns!"

"Fellow Daoist Su, your information network is quite impressive. The Gao family's butcher shop just appeared in the East Market last night, and you already knew about it?"
