Dear Lingshi

Chapter 44: Plaque

Monster beasts generally have strong bodies, and monster beasts in the Jindan stage not only have strong bodies, but also have a most powerful trump card, which is the Jindan in their bodies.

The power of the golden elixir is actually very strong, and so is the golden elixir in the body of a golden elixir cultivator. However, human cultivators generally seldom expel the golden elixir from their bodies to fight the enemy, because they are afraid that the golden elixir will be contaminated in battle, and even more afraid that the golden elixir will be damaged.

However, monsters are brutal by nature and would not have such concerns at all.

After the two monsters spit out the golden elixir, they sprayed a mouthful of essence and blood onto the golden elixir. The two fist-sized golden elixirs instantly emitted an enchanting red light.

When the light was at its brightest, with a "whoosh" sound, the two golden elixirs disappeared at the same time, and when they reappeared, they were already in front of the city lord's chest.

When everyone saw this scene, their hearts jumped to their throats. If the city lord died, no one would survive today.

At this critical moment, a long blue silk carrying a strong wave of true energy floated across the city lord's chest and directly wrapped up the two golden pills.

Seeing this scene, someone said: "The leader of Moxi Sect is here!"

This long blue silk is called Blue Water Green Yuan Silk, and is the famous spiritual weapon of the current leader of Moxi Sect.

Seeing that their golden elixirs were trapped, the two golden elixir monsters became impatient and tried their best to control their golden elixirs to escape from the long blue silk.

The two golden elixirs were struggling in the long silk, trying desperately to escape.

At this time, a tall female cultivator with long hair appeared on the scene. Her peerless beauty made all the cultivators forget that they were on a battlefield.

Even Lu Yunsheng seemed a little dazed, but then a sharp pain in his waist brought his attention back to the scene. It turned out that Bai Yushu was twisting the flesh on his waist with his hands in anger.

"call out!"

With a slight sound, the two men hurriedly looked towards the battlefield, and saw that a golden elixir had actually escaped and was rapidly flying towards one of the monsters. The monster swallowed the golden elixir back into its stomach in one gulp, wanting to go forward to help the other golden elixir escape.

Then everyone watched the female cultivator slowly pull out a long silver hairpin from her head. The silver hairpin glowed blue in her hand. The female cultivator flicked her jade hand, and the hairpin emitting blue light instantly crossed a distance of dozens of feet and pierced directly into the head of the monster with its golden elixir trapped.

The monster fell to the ground without a sound.

The monster that originally wanted to move forward actually turned around and ran away.

The female monk waved her hand, and the hairpin flew back from the monster's head without even a drop of blood on it.

As the golden elixir monster escaped, the other monsters also retreated back to Nanshan.

When everyone saw this, they cheered and some even burst into tears.

Not everyone is lucky enough to experience this feeling of surviving a disaster.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Li Wan. If it weren't for your help today, I'm afraid Tieshan City would have been devastated again!" The city lord swayed his body and slowly walked over to the female cultivator and said.

Upon hearing this, the female cultivator named Li Wan said calmly, "My Moxi Sect and Tieshan City are close neighbors. Helping Tieshan City is helping my Moxi Sect. City Lord Jin, don't take it to heart."

After saying this, Li Wan put away the Lanshui Biyuan Ling and the golden elixir inside, and put the corpse of the golden elixir-stage monster into the Qiankun bag.

"If City Lord Jin has nothing else to do, I will go back to Moxi Sect first." Li Wan said to the City Lord.

"I'll see you off, fellow Taoist!"

"No need!" Li Wan said these two words and flew away.

The city lord could only smile awkwardly after being rejected. He also let out a long sigh as he looked at the people who were still cheering.

Tieshan City was finally saved.

The city lord suddenly saw Lu Yunsheng in the crowd, who was also cheering with everyone else. He walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder.

Lu Yunsheng turned around and saw that it was the city lord. He wondered why the city lord came to him. He didn't think much about it. This was not the time to think too much. He immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Lord City Lord."

Following the call of "Lord City Lord", the people around also looked over.

"You're a good boy!" The city lord said to Lu Yunsheng with a smile, then turned and left.

The city lord's action left Lu Yunsheng confused.

But he didn't think much about it and continued to hold Bai Yushu's hand and cheer with everyone.

The battle lasted for several hours until the sky turned pale, and Lu Yunsheng and the other two returned to Duobao Pavilion with somewhat shaky steps.

He called Xuan'er and the others out of the cellar, and at Xuan'er's pleading, Lu Yunsheng described the battle last night to them again. Then he dragged his tired body back to his utility room.

Lu Yunsheng sat cross-legged on the bed and smiled slightly, thinking that he had made the right bet after all this time. Overnight, he had eleven more stores. Including the store that Fang You had acquired before, plus his own Duobao Pavilion, he now owned thirteen stores and was getting closer and closer to his goal.

Looking at this cramped utility room, Lu Yunsheng has already started to plan to expand the store. Now that he has bought the Wangji Grocery Store next door, he only needs to break through the wall between the two stores, and the area of ​​Duobao Pavilion will more than double. Moreover, Wangji Grocery Store also has two floors, and the second floor is also a loft for living. He will no longer have to live in this cramped utility room.

But he had no more goods now. He had distributed all the talismans and elixirs on the battlefield last night. He only had more than 4,000 low-grade spirit stones on him.

"Alas! Even if I spend all my money, it will come back again." Lu Yunsheng sighed and began to meditate to restore the true energy in his body.

Lu Yunsheng practiced until noon. He wanted to continue practicing, but Uncle Hu interrupted him, saying that there was something important that needed him to go down in person.

When Lu Yunsheng went down to the lobby on the first floor, he saw that the door of Duobao Pavilion was covered with red firecrackers. Before Lu Yunsheng could react, the firecrackers were lit and suddenly there was a "crackling" sound outside the door.

After a cup of tea, the firecrackers burned out, and Lu Yunsheng walked out of Duobao Pavilion to find out what was going on. He saw a team of city defense soldiers carrying two mahogany and gold-painted plaques walking towards Duobao Pavilion. The plaques were covered by red cloth, and it was not possible to see what was written on them for the time being.

The leader was the captain who came to collect the head tax that day.

Seeing this, Lu Yunsheng stepped forward to greet them. Uncle Hu and his men followed behind, and the surrounding neighbors and passers-by were all attracted.

The captain saw Lu Yunsheng, clasped his fists and bowed, smiling and saying, "Mr. Lu, we meet again. Today I am here on the orders of the city lord to present you with plaques. These two plaques were written by the city lord himself to commend you for your deeds on the battlefield last night."
