Chapter 26: Raccoon Learns Martial Arts
The more Leng Ningshuang thought about it, the more she felt that Li Yanmo's idea was extremely brilliant. However, this might touch upon all the gray areas of Risheng City, so Leng Ningshuang thought about it and used her little connections to contact the governor of Risheng City and explained the plan.
The governor of Risheng City was called Feng Shouyun.
Feng Shouyun was silent for a few seconds and then nodded in agreement about Li Yanmo's plan. However, he also emphasized another thing: this plan should not be known to too many people in the military gate. The fewer people who know about it, the better.
As for why not to let too many people from the military sect know, Feng Shouyun did not say, but Leng Ningshuang was not a naive person and quickly thought of the issue of the accomplice.
The Demon Immortal Cult had been active in Risheng City for more than half a year. They all knew that the Demon Immortal Cult was taking action, but they could not find any fatal clues.
Either all the soldiers are good-for-nothings, or there is a traitor among them.
In order to avoid any misunderstanding, Li Yanmo also greeted his three apprentices.
Shen Wansan subtly showed a hint of envy towards Li Yanmo's plan, but he hid it well under the gaze of his wife and junior sister.
Shen Ziqing showed a trace of worry, "Master, you won't be in any danger, right?"
Shen Ziqing admires Li Yanmo, but will not over-deify Li Yanmo in dangerous matters.
Li Yanmo was only at the sixth level of Qi training, but Risheng City was filled with foundation-building cultivators, and occasionally golden elixir monsters would appear as well. Cultivators were frequent visitors to those gray areas.
"Don't worry, Master Leng will come with me in disguise."
Hearing that Leng Ningshuang would follow, Shen Ziqing was no longer worried. After pondering for a while, he asked again, "Master, should our Shen family also cooperate and create a trend that our Shen family actually intends to join the Demon Immortal Sect?"
Li Yanmo thought about it and felt that there seemed to be no problem, so he nodded in agreement, "Okay, but be careful and don't let the Demon Immortal Sect notice the problem."
"Master, don't worry, I know what's going on," Shen Ziqing nodded with a smile.
After the discussion, Li Yanmo came to an alley under the guidance of Leng Ningshuang.
As a constable, Leng Ningshuang was very skilled in exchanging slogans with the gatekeeper.
"You seem very skilled," Li Yanmo lowered his voice.
"That's natural—"
Leng Ningshuang snorted and walked down the stairs with a swagger. As soon as he entered the door, a choking smell of cigarettes and the overwhelming sound of shaking dice hit him.
The underground was packed with people and there were gambling tables everywhere. Gamblers gathered around the tables, holding silver bills in their hands and yelling angrily at the spinning dice, as if they thought this could change their fate.
As a constable, Leng Ningshuang naturally didn't like such scenes, but now her identity was a playboy, so Leng Ningshuang turned her unhappiness into dislike of noisy environments.
Li Yanmo was somewhat interested at first, but got tired after turning around a few times.
There are only two types of gambling here: rolling the dice and roulette, and both are played by mortals.
But he must act comprehensively. If he was caught without doing anything, the Demon Immortal Cult would definitely be suspicious.
After observing for a while, Li Yanmo sat down at a gambling table and spent a lot of money.
Li Yanmo originally wanted to spend the operating funds of Taixu Sect, but as the sect leader, he absolutely could not use the sect's operating funds for gambling. Leng Ningshuang also did not want Li Yanmo to spend money to ruin his reputation, so he insisted on paying.
Li Yanmo had no choice but to gamble with the money from constable Leng Ningshuang.
The main purpose was to gamble, so Li Yanmo didn't think about winning and just made random bets. As a result, Li Yanmo slaughtered the casino in one night, and the silver bills on his hand were piled up like a castle.
Naturally, Li Yanmo became the focus of the entire casino.
In order to maintain his character, Li Yanmo took the banknotes into his arms with a greedy look on his face and laughed.
“Hahahaha—may the demon fairy bless you!”
As soon as Li Yanmo said this, some people's eyes changed, and Li Yanmo's expression changed as if he accidentally let the cat out of the bag. He immediately stood up, picked up the banknotes and waved them, "I'm happy today, these are for you!"
As he spoke, Li Yanmo threw the mountain of silver bills on the table into the air.
This action naturally caused a riot among the gamblers in the casino. Everyone shouted and reached out to grab the fallen banknotes. Li Yanmo took advantage of the chaos and pulled Leng Ningshuang out of the casino. It was late at night, so there were not many people on the road.
After running for a while, Li Yanmo stopped, put his hands on his hips, and proudly raised his head to Leng Ningshuang, "How was my acting just now?"
Leng Ningshuang had a subtle expression.
When Li Yanmo held those silver bills, Leng Ningshuang almost thought that Li Yanmo was a member of the Demon Immortal Sect.
That greedy look in his eyes didn't seem fake. And the operation of using silver bills to arouse others' greed seems professional.
"Good, so you are under arrest now!"
Leng Ningshuang, who was at the foundation-building stage, picked up Li Yanmo, who was at the sixth level of Qi training, like a chicken and ran straight to the yamen.
Outside Risheng City, in the zoo, Mei Chai Shao was lying on a tree branch, holding a piece of weed in his mouth, humming softly.
Under the tree, several ferocious beasts were sleeping soundly with their bellies exposed and defenseless.
As he hummed, Mei Chai Shao suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the sign with the Yellow Level Qi Training Technique on it.
At this time, a raccoon was standing in front of the sign, staring at the Yellow Level Qi Training Technique on the sign. The round ears on its head twitched from time to time, proving that it was not a doll.
“Is it possible that…”
A light flashed in Mei Chai Shao's eyes. He supported himself with his right hand and sat up, staring in the direction of the raccoon.
With the accumulation of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, some changes began.
The animals that were originally sleeping seemed to be awakened by some sound. They opened their eyes, stood up, and lowered their heads towards the raccoon, like apprentices listening to teachings.
Raccoon slowly reached out his hand and took down the Qi Training Book, flipping through it page by page, slowly but carefully.
It wasn't out of curiosity, but an epiphany of understanding the meaning.
The raccoon put the book down and began to gesture slowly. At first, his movements were awkward, but as time went on, his movements became faster and more skillful. His body also changed under the nourishment of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. He stood on the ground with his claws spread out, and now had five fingers like a human.
Seeing this scene, Mei Chai Shao's eyes flashed, and he leaped up, but he landed lightly like a fallen leaf and stood in front of the raccoon.
"Little guy, do you want to learn martial arts?"
The raccoon moved his five fingers and clasped his hands together like a human.
"Hahahaha - interesting, really interesting - but it's a pity that Lao He just left me alone!"
Mei Chai Shao laughed a few times and then raised his hand to point at other animals.
"After I teach you, you will teach them, okay?"
The raccoon glanced at the other animals and nodded.
