Cannon Fodder Disciple Dressed as a Master[Transmigration Book]

If so, what does the Grand Duke want this dry bone for?

Lin Jin leaned forward curiously, and heard several people discussing enthusiastically the Third Highness who had suddenly changed his temper.

"I really didn't expect that it would be His Highness the Third Highness who distributed the rice seedlings to us. Could it be that some noble person appeared beside him, and the noble person begged for us?"

"Yes, I heard that His Highness the Third Highness likes handsome men."

"I saw a good-looking guard before, but that guard is gone."

"If that's the case, then we should really thank this noble man."

Lin Jin frowned, probably knowing that the handsome guard they were talking about was his Brother Min... But Brother Min has been away for many days, and what happened in Youque City must not have been arranged by him.

Although he didn't like His Highness the Third Highness very much, for some reason he always felt that he was misunderstood in this way, which made people very uncomfortable.

"Hmph." Lin Jin snorted coldly, turned his head and left without arguing with these people.

Youque City distributed rice seedlings for seven consecutive days. Most of the farmers not only received them, but also allocated better land. Everyone became excited and discussed about starting farming. They all had better visions for the future.

The atmosphere in the city also began to change. When they first entered the city, everyone had a bitter look on their faces, but now everyone is busy, and some closed stores have reopened.

Zhang Qiang is the owner of a biscuit shop in Youque City. His biscuits are fragrant and crispy. He has opened in the city for decades and has many customers.

But since His Highness the Third Highness became the lord of Youque City, the taxes on merchants have become heavier and heavier. In the past, he could earn half a penny selling sesame seed cakes, but now he would lose half a penny selling sesame seed cakes, let alone making money. It's just an upside down.

For this reason, he closed the store, intending to sell the store and find a part-time job, but there are too many stores in the city to be closed, and no one is willing to sell it.

He just spent a few days like this, and when he couldn't bear it anymore and planned to go out of the city to find a job, news suddenly came that the third highness had returned the taxes!

This lifted his spirits!

I hurried to line up, and found that more people in the line were receiving rice seedlings, and the line for tax refund was also very long, but shorter than the line for rice seedlings.He waited in line for about two hours before he received the taxes he had paid from the soldiers. He also learned from the soldiers that in the next year, Youque City will exempt the self-operated stores in the city from taxes.

He was a little incoherent with excitement: "Really, really?"

"It's true, so don't worry about opening the shop." The soldier knew Zhang Qiang, and he loved the sesame seed cakes in his shop. "I want to buy two tonight."

"Okay, okay, I'll open the shop immediately when I go back."

Zhang Qiang was very excited, and hurried back to the shop with the money he got, only to find that many closed shops around him had reopened, and everyone was talking about the sudden distribution of rice seedlings and tax exemption by His Royal Highness this time.

Some have even contacted relatives who were out of town to ask how they are doing outside and try to come back if they are having a bad time.

"Brother Qiang, do you think you will have to pay taxes indiscriminately again after Youque City? I'm very worried... I'm always afraid that His Highness the Third Highness will have a whim." An owner of a silk and satin shop who has been in business for many years came up to chat.

Zhang Qiang also frowned: "We can't sell these stores now, so we can only take a step forward. But I think it must be good to have this information released. Think about it, the former three highnesses kept increasing taxes. , but never heard him return the money to us.”

"Makes sense."

"Uh-huh."

Everyone kept talking.

Lin Jin walked past them, glanced at these people, didn't say anything, just went deep into the alley.

In fact, every town has a special place where you can inquire about news, some are taverns, some are teahouses, and the news of Youque City is concentrated in a street stall in an alley.

Because the taxes in Youque City are getting higher and higher, a group of businessmen went underground. They found a place in the alley where they could set up a stall, and they gathered here to put two benches and a wooden plank to set up a stall. .

Only some residents in the city knew about this, and everyone began to gather here to buy things. Later, more and more people knew about it, and more and more people set up street stalls and came to buy things.

After he hastily entered the alley, he continued to walk for a long distance, lifted countless curtains, and finally came to the real underground market - Youque City Traders Alley Street.

It seems that this is not the first time Lin Jin has come here. After he walked in familiarly, a few people around him looked up at him, and soon they did not continue to follow their own business.

He walked through countless stalls on the side, walked to a fortune-telling booth and sat down: "Uncle Nan, I want to inquire about something."

The fortune teller was an old man in his 70s and [-]s, with white hair and white beard. He stroked his beard and narrowed his cloudy eyes: "Big or small?"

Lin Jin scratched his head: "It can be big or small."

"tell me the story."

"I want to inquire about the dead bone brought in from Demon City."

The fortune teller opened his eyes all of a sudden, and turned the teacup on the table upside down with one hand: "I need to pay more."

"Okay." Lin Jin had been by Bailijie's side before, and Bailijie had given him a lot of gold coins in order to please him.

He took out a gold coin and handed it to the fortune teller: "You get what you pay for, if what you say is not worth the money, I will exchange it for another."

The fortune teller reached out his hand to touch it, bit his mouth, immediately showed a smile on his face, and quickly hid the gold coin: "Ask whatever you want, I know this better than anyone else."

"Where is the dry bone now?"

"I don't know where it is now, but I know that when the bones were transported from Demon City, they were directly sent to the Grand Duke's fief."

"Lin Hong?"

"Correct."

"How is it possible? Isn't it rumored that Duke Lin Hong was resurrected after the dead bones were sent?"

"That's just a legend. Who can really be reborn after death? Duke Lin Hong has always been alive."

Lin Jin frowned: "If that's the case, what does the Grand Duke want this dead bone for? They say it's the dead bone of the demon race, is there such a thing?"

The fortune-teller's pair of black and cloudy eyes stared firmly at Lin Jin: "It's a skeleton that was cultivated in the catastrophe period, and the bones are all white."

After the death of the demons, the skeletons that appear from the decay of the corpses are generally black.

"The whole body is white, are those the bones of the Celestial Clan?" Lin Jin was just curious about the legend about the transported dry bones before, and would not really inquire about them, but now he learns about these things that he didn't know before, and even doubts about them. The fortune teller was telling him, "You know such details?"

"Because my father sent someone to transport the skeleton to the Grand Duke's territory." The fortune teller replied.

Lin Jin was dubious, he didn't want to just listen to one person's opinion and give the result, so he went out of the city directly before it was dark, and wanted to find more places to inquire about the news.

-

Qian Wei didn't know that Lin Jin was working so hard, he just wanted to dismiss this useless young man, of course, it would be great if he could find out something.

As soon as Lin Jin left, he disappeared for ten days. During this period, Qian Wei received news from Nuo Min from Baibei City from time to time.

Nuo Min is much more capable than Lin Jin. On the first day he arrived in Baibei City, he discovered that there were Celestial Clans in the city. The aura of the Celestial Clan was completely different from that of the Demon Clan, and he found it very quickly.

But the strange thing is that the demons in Baibei City seem to know about this, and they are also accustomed to it.

After two days of investigation, he found that the Celestial Clan in Baibei City were two merchants who came to do business, and they came here to buy some spars and demon bones from the Demon Clan's realm.

But if it is just to buy crystals and demon bones, why stay in White Beetle City for a long time?As long as the phased time comes, won't it be enough?

Nuo Min realized that perhaps His Highness had really reached an agreement with the Celestial Clan as Baili Jie said?

Thinking about it this way, he was even more surprised. He didn't expect Baili Jie to hide so deeply. When he was with him before, all he saw was his domineering and misbehavior... He never expected that he would know so many things.

He sent a letter of the latest investigation to Youque City. At this moment, two demons passed by him behind him, and the two talked about the strange things recently: "Have you heard? His Highness's cultivation seems to have increased a lot."

"But isn't Your Highness only at the Nascent Soul stage? The cultivation of the demons is fixed, can he still break through?" Another demon asked curiously.

The demon who spoke continued: "Who knows, isn't my younger sister a servant in the city lord's mansion? She said that she saw with her own eyes that His Highness's cultivation has reached a new stage. he."

"The means of the people of the Celestial Clan are really endless. If I can really break through and upgrade, I want to try."

They were discussing, but all the words reached Nuo Min's ears.

Breakthrough upgrade?How can it be?

The boundaries of the demon clan are fixed. Some people are born to reach the catastrophe stage, and some people are fixed at the Nascent Soul stage or lower from birth. The big hand suppresses the same in the blood of all demons.

But what did those people say just now?Your Majesty has broken through and advanced?

Nuo Min frowned, he felt that things were getting weirder and weirder, originally he was only inquiring about the situation of the Celestial Clan in the city, but now it seems that he has to sneak into the City Lord's Mansion quietly.

Thinking so, he came to the vicinity of the City Lord's Mansion unknowingly.

Just as he was thinking about finding some way to get in, suddenly a person passed by.

The moment they passed by, Nuo Min suddenly raised his head. The man was wearing a cloak and a bamboo hat, so he couldn't see his face clearly. He could only brush the clothes in front of him, and walked forward with the wind.

But at that moment, he was sure that the person in front of him was also a Celestial Clan!

And... his cultivation base is higher than his!
