Chapter 8 Touching the Corpse

The corpse was completely charred and black, especially the face.

Even when he left the water, he was still emitting black gas. At first glance, he knew that he had been killed by magic power.

He originally wanted to let it sink back into the water, but Lu Zhong saw a small gold bag on the waist of the body, and he could no longer look away.

"Could it be..."

A guess flashed through his mind. If this were true, he would make a fortune!

Lu Zhong hurriedly tightened the fishing line. At this moment, the body was floating and sinking under the fierce erosion of the river. It would be too late to regret it if the golden silk bag was washed away by the current, so he thought of fishing the body out.

The body soaked in water was so heavy that it took Lu Zhong a long time to pull it to the boat.

With his heart about to jump into his throat, he tremblingly pulled off the golden pouch and poured a trace of spiritual power into it.

Immediately, the golden pouch reacted.

"Storage bag, it is indeed a storage bag!"

Lu Zhong didn't expect that such a precious thing would fall into his hands.

He didn't know why the storage bags were expensive, but the price in the Qingliuxu store was clear.

The price is at least starting from three spirit stones!

Lu Zhong was so excited to suddenly get such an expensive thing that he could hardly hold the gold pouch.

After a while, I finally calmed down a bit. I didn't care that the storage bag was wet, and immediately put it into the bag of my underwear.

Then with full expectation, he touched the corpse again.

Unfortunately, apart from a bottle of elixir that swelled when soaked in water, there was nothing else to gain.

"I'm sorry, it seems I can't let you rest in the grave." Seeing that there was nothing else to gain, Lu Zhong noted down the characteristics of the clothes worn by the corpse, and then pushed it back into the river.

I didn't forget to wash the ship's planks carefully with river water, and also dealt with any remaining smell on my body.

For the sake of your own life, you can never be too cautious.

If there is a cleansing talisman now, I would take three or two pictures of whatever I say.

Then, he gave up his plan to continue fishing.

After fishing up a corpse that had been killed by magic power, Lu Zhong knew that there must be a nest of peach blossom mandarin fish underneath, but he did not dare to continue fishing no matter what, so he hurriedly shook the oar and rushed towards Qingliu Ruins.

Then the oars moved very fast, and they returned to the dock in less than a quarter of an hour.

Without stopping, Lu Zhong returned with two peach blossoms and hurried to Jiangwei Pavilion.

In a small tea shed next to Jiangwei Pavilion, Wei Tie was drinking tea with two of his men.

He was not in a good mood at the moment, not only partly because he was reprimanded by Manager Li yesterday, but also because of the news that came in the morning.

If this news is true, then the lucrative job he managed to find with great difficulty will become a noose for his life.

Out of the corner of his eye, Wei Tie caught a glimpse of a running figure. Wei Tie felt a little familiar, and when he thought about it, he remembered that it was the young man who caused him to be reprimanded yesterday, and he immediately wanted to take out the anger accumulated in his heart on him.

However, Wei Tie did not immediately attack, but decided to take a look before talking.

After all, Manager Li had told him that if this person brought another good catch, he would be notified as soon as possible.

When he got closer, Wei Tie's expression turned ugly.

"Peach blossom mandarin fish, it still has two tails?"

He knew that he could not touch this young man no matter what today.

On the contrary, you have to greet them with a smile.

The more Wei Tie thought about it, the more depressed he felt. He had to suppress his anger, not to mention how uncomfortable he was at the moment.

"Hello, Lieutenant, I was lucky enough to catch two peach blossom mandarin fish. I wonder if I can inform Manager Li about it?" Lu Zhong said, panting while running with two fresh peach blossom mandarin fish in his hand.

Wei Tie looked at the two peach blossom mandarin fish and forced a smile: "No need, Manager Li has told me that if you catch another fish, little brother, you can take it directly to the kitchen to receive the reward."

After a while, the fish in Lu Zhong's hand was replaced by a spiritual stone.

Jiangweige was also very generous and actually gave him seven spiritual stones.

With seven spiritual stones, Lu Zhong didn't know how many cleansing talismans he had to sell to earn such a huge sum of money.

With this amount of spiritual stones, he finally had the starting capital.

Taking a deep breath, he thanked the accountant who gave him the money again and again, and then walked out of Jiangwei Pavilion.

With money, Lu Zhong walked like a tiger.

He dared to take a serious look at even those shops with expensive goods.

However, Lu Zhong did not spend a lot of money immediately, but first prepared to go home.

“I don’t know what’s in the storage bag, I hope I can get something big!”

With such a mood, he quickened his pace and walked towards the small shabby house.

When passing by a medical center, I happened to see a body covered with white cloth being carried out. Next to it, a woman was holding an infant girl and crying loudly, which made people passing by sigh.

"Oh, another one whose life was taken away by a demon cultivator!"

"The demon cultivator who suffered a thousand blows and lost the backbone of the family, I'm afraid Xiu Niang will..."

The man did not continue, but Lu Zhong knew what he meant. This woman was afraid that she would be driven out of her family.

It would be okay if she was a monk, but now it seems that she is just a mortal. Facing the hungry pack of wolves surrounding her, she is alone, mother and daughter, and she is afraid that they will be driven out of Qingliu within three days.

Ruins.

Sighing, the helpless Lu Zhong continued to move forward.

Through this incident, he also saw a lot.

Qingliuxu looks peaceful on the surface, but in those corners where the sun doesn't shine, there are probably a lot of shady things going on.

In other words, Lu Zhong was poor and useless, with not a single bit of profit to be squeezed out of him.

Otherwise, all kinds of prying eyes will fall on him.

Lu Zhong immediately felt a sense of urgency and wanted to improve his cultivation level immediately.



Soon return to the small shabby house.

In the kitchen that could not be seen from outside, Lu Zhong took out the small gold bag.

Since it was ownerless, he opened the pouch easily.

With a weak sense of consciousness, I looked inside and found that it was a half-square storage bag.

Immediately after that, the mouth of the bag was turned downward, and three things were immediately poured out.

These things look very mini in the bag, but return to their original size as soon as they are poured out.

a small medicine bottle made of sapphire;

A piece of talisman paper with complicated patterns;

A beautifully bound booklet.

These are all the contents of the storage bag.

The sapphire medicine bottle was cork-stoppered, and contained a green elixir inside. Without knowing what it was, Lu Zhong did not dare to touch it, so he could only re-cork it and put it aside.

That talisman paper is easy to identify, and you can tell at a glance that it is a type of fireball talisman.

He didn't know which one it was, but he thought that the power of this first-level mid-grade fireball talisman would not be too bad.

In this case, it can also be regarded as a trump card.

When he picked up the booklet, Lu Zhong's expression immediately changed and he murmured:

"Qingyang Yuxuan Gong, how could it be this skill!"
