MTL - Male Inferiority and Female Supremacy in the World of Immortal Cultivation-Chapter 20 voluntary labor is impossible
Chapter 20 20. Voluntary labor is impossible
In just two days, Master Ji's swollen face has returned to normal.
Although her state is not very good, she has only just entered the Qi refining state, but she has a lot of methods, not to mention the treatment of fist and foot injuries.
Which of the immortal cultivators who roam the world has not suffered several beatings? If you don't have a lot of medical skills, you may lose your life on the road.
At this moment, Master Ji and Xiao Daotong, his master and apprentice, stood in front of the Hu Mansion.
In the past two days, there were also rumors of a fox haunting the Hu Mansion. After hearing about it, Master Ji rushed over with his apprentices, ready to subdue the demons.
Xiao Daotong was very worried: "Master, are we really going to do this business?"
He has now formed a ptsd towards Yaohu, and his **** tightens when he hears the word Yaohu. What happened that night two days ago was an indelible pain in his life.
"What do you know?"
Master Ji was very dissatisfied with his apprentice's timidity: "Now is a good opportunity to do this business, and it will be too late."
Escaping from the Wang family that night, Master Ji saw with his own eyes that several fox demons were beaten to death by the woman in white like chopping melons and vegetables.
It is impossible to have two nests of fox demons in a city. Since the fox demons have been killed, the Hu mansion is in a safe and secure situation. The people in the Hu mansion must not know that the fox demons are dead.
This is simply a good opportunity to pick up money by bending over. Master Ji rushed here with his apprentice, wanting to close the deal before the woman in white finds out.
Fortunately, the Wang family has been very busy these two days, so they didn't spread the fact that Master Ji is a bluffing liar.
Master Ji doesn't think she is a liar, she has real skills, at most it's bad luck.
Under the urging of Master Ji, Xiao Daotong reluctantly went up to knock on the door, explaining his intention.
Soon the master and apprentice were welcomed into the Hu Mansion, and a middle-aged man in brocade clothes received them.
Before coming here, Master Ji had already inquired about the situation of Hu's Mansion. Hu's Mansion opened a restaurant, and the family had huge wealth, but it was rare for a man to take charge of the affairs, and his wrists were somewhat stronger than women's. This is also a common phenomenon in Qingde City. funny thing.
So seeing this middle-aged man named Hu Zhaici appear, Master Ji didn't show the slightest surprise on his face.
Master Ji used the method he used to deal with Wang Fulai to Hu Zhai Ci again, and immediately gained Hu Zhai Ci's trust.
Hu Zhaici told Master Ji what had happened in his Hu Mansion in the past few days. It was also his daughter who fell ill, and a demon fox appeared in the mansion to make trouble, which had already injured several people.
"Don't worry, Master Hu. Immortal cultivators travel to the world of mortals. In addition to sharpening their bodies and minds, they should also subdue demons and eliminate demons to benefit the world."
Master Ji confidently stated that he will be able to set up an altar tonight and wipe out the demon fox.
"It is said that the Wang family also appeared during this period and was also infested by demon foxes. They were eliminated by two young masters. Does Master Ji know him?"
Hu Zhaici asked cautiously.
Master Ji opened his mouth and almost yelled out the word Qiujia, but finally swallowed it back with tenacious determination, and said with a smile: "To tell you the truth, benefactor Hu, those two from the Wang family are my juniors from the same sect. Don’t make jokes, please forgive me.”
Hu Zhaici was overjoyed: "It turns out that there is Master Lao Ji."
After asking the housekeeper to take Master Ji down for a rest, the smile on Hu Zhaici's face gradually faded.
He walked out the door and told his servants: "Prepare some gifts, I'm going to visit the Wang family."
…
When Fang Zhou came to the main hall, he saw Wang Fulai and Hu Zhaici talking happily.
Fang Zhou came here instead of Ling Xiaoyue, because I heard that there was a business coming to the door, no, it was a victim who came to ask for help, so I took a look.
Seeing Hu Zhaici as a man, Fang Zhou felt like a ray of sunshine finally appeared in this gloomy sky.
It was not easy, and I finally met a man who was in charge of the house.
The Wang family and the Hu family are business partners, one sells alcohol and the other runs a restaurant. If there is no business relationship, then hell, so the relationship is not bad.
"A few days ago, my daughter also fell ill. I invited the doctor to see her. She said that she was suffering from physical deficiency and excessive indulgence. In the past few days, the house has been haunted by foxes, making my house restless. I heard that a similar situation has occurred in Sister Wang's house. The little brother came to ask for help with the cheek, and hoped that Sister Wang would not be offended, the little brother was really desperate."
Hu Zhaici directly explained the intention of coming, and wanted to invite Ling Xiaoyue and Fang Zhou to the Hu Mansion to subdue demons.
"What did Brother Hu say? The Wang and Hu families are family friends, and you and I love siblings even more. Why do you need to see others like this?"
Wang Fulai sympathized with Hu Zhaici's experience. If she hadn't been lucky enough to invite two masters, her Wang family would be ruined by now.
Although he wanted to make a decision right away, Wang Fulai still knew very well that he could not decide on this matter.
She could only apologetically say to Hu Zhai: "My sister is eager to come to the door to help. I agree with this matter very much, but it still needs the two masters to make up their minds."
As she spoke, she looked at Fang Zhou, who had been silent all this time. Hu Zhaici also looked at Fang Zhou with a smile, his black eyes gleaming.
Fang Zhou was free and was practicing, don't worry the two looked over, he didn't know what to say for a moment, subconsciously said: "Don't worry Hu benefactor, cultivators traveling in the world of mortals, in addition to sharpening their body and mind, they should also subdue demons and eliminate demons to benefit the world .”
Immediately after he finished speaking, he felt so embarrassed, it was all because Ling Xiaoyue always said this sentence and brainwashed him.
Hu Zhaici was overjoyed, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Thank you, master, for extending your helping hand. Zhaici is very grateful."
"Ah... this... sponsorship..."
Fang Zhou is still a shameless person, and it is plausible that he can't take advantage of others' danger to demand high prices like Ling Xiaoyue.
But Ling Xiaoyue specifically explained this matter. If you forget anything, you must never forget to ask for money. Volunteer labor is impossible, and it is impossible to do voluntary labor in this life.
Hu Zhaici, however, was shrewd, and immediately realized what Fang Zhou was hesitating about, and immediately said: "The cost is the same as that of the Wang family, and there will be a big thank you after everything is done."
Fang Zhou breathed a sigh of relief: "Then when will your family be free?"
"Without further delay, I invite the two masters to condescend to move to Hu's mansion tonight, and Zhai Ci will wait for you two to visit in the mansion."
The matter was settled like this, after Hu Zhaici left, Fang Zhou turned to look for Ling Xiaoyue.
Seeing Ling Xiaoyue looking like she was waiting to count the money, Fang Zhou couldn't help reminding her: "There is something wrong with this Hu Zhai Ci, Hu's mansion may be a den of foxes."
Ling Xiaoyue was a little surprised: "Oh, tell me, how did you find out?"
Fang Zhou spread his hands: "Aren't fox monsters usually surnamed Hu? I asked someone from the Wang family. They are the only ones in Qingde City with the surname Hu, and Hu Zhai Ci, the homonym of Hu Zhai Ci, means Fox So, is this because you are afraid that others will not be able to see it?"
Ling Xiaoyue suddenly laughed, and stretched out her hand to pat Fang Zhou's shoulder: "Not bad, apprentice, you have made progress. Foxes are usually surnamed Hu. Haha, this angle is novel enough, but you are right."
Fang Zhou was very puzzled: "I don't believe you can't see it, why do you want me to take this business? Why didn't you just kill Hu Zhaici and copy his hometown?"
Ling Xiaoyue gave him a blank look: "Nonsense, of course it's for making money. If you kill him, the ghost knows where he hides the money. You have to know that cultivating immortals is very expensive, especially maintaining a sect. If you don't earn more Are you waiting to drink the northwest wind?"
Fang Zhou was a little touched, he didn't expect Ling Xiaoyue to work so hard for the sect, maybe she was wrongly blamed before.
Ling Xiaoyue comforted: "Don't worry, apprentice, we want money and foxes tonight, so don't even think about running away."
