"A few hundred taels of silver, are you going to return it to me?!"
"Seventh-grade spiritual material! Why are you giving it away instead of doing something good?!"
Kong Hanan leaned against the wall, covering his chest, pointing at Niu Dou Ma Mian and the Black and White Impermanence, his voice trembling.
He felt that nothing good would happen when he woke up.
He was first frightened by the old man Gu Qiang, and then he found that he could not improve his cultivation. At most, he could barely get some yang energy in to help him relieve some fatigue.
After finally tricking Gu Qiang with the so-called "Extreme Breakthrough Flow", he heard his subordinates' reports on what happened last night.
I feel so sad!
Ma Mian and Bai Wuchang smiled and said, "Sir, aren't we trying to save your face? He's just a small county lieutenant..."
Kong Hanan felt weak in his limbs and didn't want to listen to them anymore.
"Enough! Face? What is face? Money, house, car, wife, children, you want these but not face!"
Kong Hanan paused after he finished speaking, feeling that it was a bit inappropriate to say so, so he changed the subject and spoke earnestly.
"Think about it, with a few hundred taels of silver, how much fodder can I buy for the cattle and horses, and how much paper money can I buy? That money can be used to pay you! And that seventh-grade spiritual material, if used properly, how much can it improve your cultivation?"
Salary? What is salary?
The cattle and horses in our underworld don’t eat grass.
Niu Dou blinked in confusion, and was about to say something when Ma Mian stepped on him and stopped him.
"The adults have taught us this, and we will pay attention to it in the future."
Li San was stunned when he heard this, and decided to listen to the story first. It would be better not to upset the adults with the affairs of the Yaksha tribe.
"Listen to that bullshit story! Gu Qiang, hurry back to the underworld to judge the case. Yan Chang'an, you haven't finished sorting out the spoils from Yinfeng Mountain yet! Li Wujiu and Niu Dou are guarding the house. If anyone comes to visit, treat them well and accept the money. Li San and Ma Mian, come with me to Dongyue Temple. I need to speak to the Emperor."
Kong Hanan was in a bad mood. Nothing had gone well since he got up, and he was in no mood to tell stories to Li San.
Didn’t the emperor say before that he would come to him after he was promoted? He just wanted to go to the emperor to ask for some attack skills.
The master was in a bad mood, and the demons and monsters looked at each other and did what they were told.
But when Kong Hanan arrived at Dongyue Temple with great anticipation, he did not see Chen Daoshou who came to greet him, and the gate of Dongyue Temple was closed.
Kong Hanan felt something was strange, so he went forward and knocked on the door. It took a long time for the door to open.
It was an acquaintance, the little Taoist boy who took care of the donation box.
The Taoist boy bowed to Kong Hanan and said, "Sir, please forgive me. The statue of the Great Emperor has been lost, and the new golden statue has not been completed yet. The temple will not accept pilgrims today."
Kong Hanan's face turned pale with rage: "Which bastard dared to steal the Great Emperor's statue? I will make sure his soul flies away! Where is Chen Daoshou? I'll go ask him."
Kong Hanan was not afraid at all. The statue of the emperor was his trophy, not stolen by him. The paper man had been beaten to death by him.
The Taoist boy's face froze for a moment, then he said, "The Taoist leader was seriously injured yesterday and has not recovered yet. He is still resting and is not available to see guests."
Oh? I didn't see that he was seriously injured yesterday. Does that mean he doesn't want to see me?
Kong Hanan blinked, but saw the Taoist boy looked around and cautiously stretched out three fingers and shook them at him.
What does this mean? Are you asking me for money? I saw my great-great-great-great-great-disciple, and he's still asking for money?
There was no point in talking, so Kong Hanan bowed.
Goodbye!
Kong Hanan was turned away here, and Captain Xu at the Kong Mansion was also rejected.
Captain Xu returned to the military camp last night and thought carefully for a while. He wondered if Mr. Kong, a hermit and a sage who was not bound by worldly wishes, would find giving money too cliché.
Looking at his subordinates, they all used spiritual materials as gifts. Giving silver would be too humiliating.
While he was thinking about it, the county magistrate sent someone to deliver a painting, which was the work of the most famous calligrapher and painter in recent decades. He didn't say what it was for, but just asked Captain Xu to appreciate it.
Captain Xu clapped his hands and laughed. This county magistrate was really a wonderful person. He was a military officer, so why would he appreciate calligraphy and painting? He was thinking about his own difficulties and wanted to show off.
The next morning, after arranging matters in the military camp, Xu Meng set out with calligraphy and paintings to find Kong Hanan.
But when he arrived at the Kong Mansion, Kong Hanan had gone out.
The one who opened the door was a very strong bull demon.
The bull demon seemed a little absent-minded. He bowed and invited him into the house only after seeing that he was holding a gift.
Xu Meng felt more and more profound. This bull demon was strong and had high cultivation level. The secret guards told him that he had reached the level of evil ghost.
It took Gu Qiang to solve the case. Niu Dou divided a few evil ghosts and took them back to the underworld to eat them. It was not long before he broke through.
The evil ghost corresponds to the primordial spirit. In the primordial spirit realm, if placed in a local area, it can also be the head of a branch temple, or the overlord of a small hill. If placed in a county, it can also be a high-level combat force.
It seems that the other party is willing to use such a person to guard the door. Xu Meng couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Mr. Kong's strength is really unfathomable.
Following him into the house, he was greeted by the Black Robe Ghost King from last night. The Black Robe Ghost King looked like a serious man, but when he saw him, he forced a smile.
Although this smile was a bit discordant, Xu Meng's evaluation of Kong Hanan was elevated.
It doesn't matter if he has subordinates, but it is obvious that Mr. Kong calculated that he would come to visit today, and deliberately left behind the Ghost King whom he met yesterday.
The Ghost King's strength is considered top-notch in the county, but because of Mr. Kong's order, he had to smile at him.
Mr. Kong must have amazing skills to be able to train the Ghost King so well!
Why did Xu Meng think so?
Because the Ghost King showed his contempt yesterday, and the Bull Demon guarding the gate didn't care much about him. If Kong Hanan hadn't given the order, why would the Ghost King in black smile at him?
