Invitation
"Fellow Daoist Fan, I heard that you have something important to tell me, and it's a good thing.”Ye Kong was already on high alert, and his left hand had already reached for the talisman in his sleeve. If things didn't go well, he would first deal with Fan Jiulong. With the hostage in hand, he would be safer.
Fan Nine Snakes sensed his wariness. A sharp light flashed in his small eyes, and he instantly returned to smiling." It's really a good thing. Fellow Daoist Ye will definitely be happy to hear it."”
"Oh?" Ye Kong pretended to listen attentively, and he put down his chopsticks with his right hand and reached into his sleeve.
Fan Nine Snakes kept him in suspense and then asked with a smile," I wonder if Fellow Daoist Ye has been to the market? It was a market where cultivators exchanged their needs and medicinal materials.”
"Oh? Where?" Ye Kong's attention was also drawn to this. It was impossible for him to say that he didn't want to go. He opened the talisman scroll, eager to go to the market to buy talismans, talismans, pens, and other materials. When he heard Fan Nine Snakes mention it, he was naturally tempted.
Fan Nine Snakes wasn't in a hurry to answer where it was. Seeing that Ye Kong's interest had been piqued, he continued to stir up emotions." Nine Snakes has been to the market of cultivators once. There are all kinds of talismans, pills, spirit tools, and magic treasures, as well as all kinds of cultivation materials that you can't even imagine. Wow, it's really an eye-opener. Oh, there are also all kinds of cultivation techniques and spell formulas. It's really dazzling.”
Ye Kong had been fooled by Fan Xian's words. It was impossible for him not to be tempted. He asked again," I wonder if Brother Fan can tell me where it is?"”
Seeing that the fish had taken the bait, Fan Nine Snakes deliberately thought for a moment and said," Aiya, it's really hard to say where it is. The market only opens once every three months, and it will open in a few days. Why don't the two of us go together?"”
Ye Kong wanted to go to the market again, but he didn't let down his guard against Fan Nine Snakes. He didn't want to go with this guy, but if he didn't go with him, this fatty definitely wouldn't tell him the location of the market.
Seeing that he could make talismans soon, he would be worried if he didn't go. Besides, maybe Fan Nine Snakes really didn't want to harm him?
Seeing that Ye Kong was deep in thought, Fan Jiushe secretly glanced at Fan Jiulong and said," In the cultivation world, the strong prey on the weak. Killing and snatching treasures is a common occurrence, especially around the market. Knowing that everyone who comes to the market has treasures and spirit stones, there are many treasure snatchers lying in ambush, targeting those low-level cultivators who are left alone.”
Fan Jiulong also interjected," Then why don't you two go together? We can take care of each other. Those treasure hunters might not attack them when they see you two."”Fan Jiulong slapped his forehead and apologized," We've been eating for so long that we forgot to call you. Haha, Eighth Young Master, please wait for a moment. I'll make some arrangements."”
Fan Jiulong laughed and left. Ye Kong had wanted to take him as a hostage at the critical moment, but he had failed.
Although Ye Kong was full of doubts, he couldn't just make a move for no reason when the other party said that he was going to arrange for a girl to be there.
"But I've only just started cultivating, so I don't have any spirit stones or treasures.”Ye Kong refused, but his eyes were scanning the surroundings.
"Ai, Fellow Daoist Ye's words are wrong. Even if you don't buy anything, going to see and make friends will be of great help on the path of immortal cultivation. Besides, if you know the place, you can go and see it yourself when your realm increases in the future.”
What Fan Nine Snakes said made sense, but Ye Kong didn't dare to agree. How could anything good come out of this guy's diligent persuasion? In addition, the way these two brothers looked at him-the greed, excitement, and desire in their eyes-was daunting.
Ye Kong had wanted to refuse, but when he focused his attention, he realized that he was already surrounded. Although he couldn't release his divine sense, his keen hearing allowed him to notice the low and suppressed breathing of many men.
Ye Kong was shocked. This was indeed a trap. What was even more frightening was that he didn't even know when these people would surround him! It was obvious that the Fan brothers had come prepared, and his trump card, the Invisibility Talisman, was useless against Fan Jiushe.
It seemed that he had no choice but to agree. Otherwise, he would not be able to walk out of this door today.
"If that's the case, then we'll go together as Fellow Daoist Fan wishes.”Ye Kong pretended not to be scheming, then smiled and said," Actually, I want to go too. I'm just afraid that the two of us won't be a match for him.”
Fan Nine Snakes was overjoyed to hear him agree. He waved his hand and said," It doesn't matter. Those treasure snatchers aren't that powerful. As long as we're careful, there shouldn't be any danger."”
"Then I'll have to rely on Brother Fan, haha.”
Ye Kong agreed, and Fan Jiulong didn't give the signal to attack. After a while, Fan Jiulong walked in with a few pretty girls.
Since they didn't fall out, Ye Kong pretended not to know that the other party had set up an ambush. The three of them chatted casually, as if they were really good brothers who were in love with each other.
Ye Kong didn't stand on ceremony either. He hugged the pretty girl called Xiao Ying and caressed her from head to toe, making up for the two years of lessons he'd been learning. He used Earth's 21st-century kneading technique to the extreme, causing Xiao Ying to stick to Ye Kong like a puddle of mud, her expression extremely ugly.
"Haha, I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Ye to be an expert. Why don't we stay in Hidden Spring Pavilion after eating?”Fan Nine Snakes pointed at the impatient Xiaoying and smiled." This Miss Xiaoying is a courtesan. Since you've already made her look like this, why don't we just take her red pill today?"”
Ye Kong thought to himself," Doing good things in your ambush? I can't be on tenterhooks. If you change your mind and attack me when I'm in the mood, won't that be bad?
"Brothers, you might not know this, but the cultivation technique I cultivate requires me to maintain the body of the primordial yang. I'm afraid I can only feast my eyes before reaching the jindan stage.”Ye Kong let go of Xiaoying and found an excuse to reject her.
This was a good excuse, and Fan Nine Snakes couldn't persuade him to stay. He could only smile and say," Then let's meet in three days. Brother Ye, don't be late then."”
"Don't worry, I won't. I'll use these three days to think about what I can trade in the market.”Ye Kong smiled and left.
As soon as Ye Kong left, the Fan brothers 'faces turned as cold as ice. They waved the woman away, and Fan Jiulong asked in a low voice," Little brother, why didn't you do it? This is an opportunity that cannot be missed!"”
Fan Nine Snakes shook his head." Try not to make a move today. There are many spies in Hidden Spring Brothel. If we fight with him, it will be hard for outsiders to know. In the future, when Ye Haoran comes back, it will be a small matter. If outsiders know that I am a cultivator, it will attract trouble. Since he has agreed to go to the market together, why don't we make a move when the time comes and do it without anyone knowing?"”
A vicious light flashed in Fan Nine Snakes 'eyes. He took out the small sword magic tool and admired it endlessly.
Fan Jiulong shook his head worriedly." That kid is not old, but he is very cunning and smart. It is very likely that he has discovered our ambush and is playing a delaying tactic!" What if he changed his mind after three days?”
Fan Nine Snakes slammed the small sword on the table and said coldly," If you don't want to go, then don't blame us. When the time comes, we'll kidnap the entire Lu family. If not, we'll also capture his ghost-like mother!"”
Fan Jiulong could only nod." Then let him live for three more days!"”
As Ye Kong walked out of the Hidden Spring Brothel, a cool breeze of a midsummer night blew over him, clearing his mind.
"If you want to lay your hands on me, be careful not to force me into a life-and-death struggle with you! No, I have to think of a way!" Ye Kong didn't return to the Ye Residence. Instead, he wandered back and forth until there was no one around. He stuck an Invisibility Talisman on it, and sure enough, he saw two shifty-eyed guys following him.
"Where is he? I came in because I saw him just now."
"Damn it, it's gone in a flash.”
Ye Kong had already taken advantage of his invisibility to blend into the crowd, heading straight for the Lu family's residence in the north of the city.
Over the past six months, Lu Jun and Lu Yi's forces had grown stronger, and Ye Kong had taught them the ways of the 21st century B society to amass wealth, which was to control prostitution, gambling, and drugs, and to interfere in monopolized industries. The Lu brothers were no longer the poor people who had to borrow ten taels of silver.
Now that they were rich, they could no longer live in the collapsed yellow soil house. The Lu family now lived in a nice big courtyard near the north street. Although it couldn't be compared to the Ye residence, it was still a big courtyard house and was spacious. The Lu brothers, the old lady, and Lu Qin all had their own houses and even bought a few maids and servants. They were like rich people in the slums of North City.
Ye Kong didn't take off his Invisibility Charm. When he arrived at the Lu family's front door, the Invisibility Charm was still in effect. He walked around the Lu family's residence to see if anyone was watching the Lu brothers.
Fan Jiulong didn't take the Lu Brothers to heart. In his opinion, these two brothers were weak in martial arts, and they were all relying on Ye Kong to back them up. As long as he could get rid of Ye Kong, it would be a matter of time before the Lu Brothers were wiped out. He didn't even bother to send someone to monitor them.
Ye Kong looked around, but didn't find any hidden sentries. He took out a Wall Passing Talisman and stuck it on the Lu family's wall. When Ye Kong passed through the wall, he saw the faint glow of the fire on the small gray brick wall blink, and the talisman was burned to ashes.
In fact, yellow paper talismans were very powerful and not bad. As long as they were not used against immortal cultivators, they were basically invincible. Moreover, there was another important point. Anyone could use paper talismans. As long as they learned the incantation of paper talismans, mortals could also use them at will, unlike most spiritual talismans, which required spiritual power to activate.
The Wall Passing Talisman was also one of the commonly used talismans. Legend had it that the Maoshan Taoist priest used the Wall Passing Talisman. Although these paper talismans weren't as useful as Spirit Talismans, they had so many uses that Ye Kong didn't dare to teach them to anyone else. Aside from Lu Qin, he wasn't planning on teaching anyone else.
Otherwise, if ill-intentioned people learned it, they would be helping the wicked. Thieves were still good. With these talismans, they could enter people's houses at will, kill people, set fires, and bully women without leaving a trace.
Of course, Ye Kong didn't have such hobbies. Although he was just a gangster, he wasn't a pervert. If no one provoked him, he wouldn't kill them. As for women, he had always thought that it was meaningless to force them to be his. They were only interesting if they cooperated with him.
Even so, he would not let go of the opportunity. After all, he was not a good person. It was not his nature not to act like a gangster.
"Wow, Xiao Qin is showering. Let's take a look first!”
