"Hey, hey, hey, are you guys leaving just like that?”Just as the two of them were about to walk to the backyard, Lao Bai stopped them and pointed at the five corpses.
"If you want to leave, you have to help me deal with these corpses before you leave.
Some time ago, when I buried Wei Wuya, I dug until midnight and was almost mistaken for a grave robber!
Now, there were five of them!
If I had to deal with it alone, wouldn't I have to work for two whole days?!”
"Eh?" Su Mu was startled. After sizing up Lao Bai a few times, he asked with a strange expression:
"Old Bai, when did you become a saint who treats money like dirt?”
"Huh?" Lao Bai was stunned."
"Little Su, what do you mean?”
"" Su Mu's expression became even more strange. Pointing at the five people lying on the ground, he asked somewhat speechlessly:
"You've been in the martial world for so long, don't you know that the Twelve Celestial Bodies are wanted criminals?
Each of them had more or less some reward silver on them.
As long as you inform Old Xing, not only do you not have to deal with the bodies yourself, you can also get the silver reward from them.”
Old White was stunned.
After a long time, he asked in a slightly hoarse voice,"
"Then... How much did Wei Wuya reward him? Ken... Surely not much?"
Right now, he hoped that Wei Wuya would only reward him with one tael of silver…No! One silver coin! This was the only way he wouldn't feel heartache.
"Pa!" Su Mu patted Lao Bai's shoulder and said with pity:
"Wei Wuya, as the former leader of the Twelve Celestial Bodies, has a huge debt of blood.
The imperial court offered ten thousand taels of silver as a reward for his head!”
"One…Ten thousand? Burp!" Lao Bai's eyes widened and he cried out in shock. He suddenly burped and his eyes rolled up, almost fainting.
"Heavens, kill me!" After a long time, he came back to his senses. His eyes were red as he patted his chest and wailed,
"Ten thousand taels! A whole ten thousand taels! I actually missed ten thousand taels!
Why would I be so silly as to dig a grave for Wei Wuya?
Wouldn't it be nice to chop off his head and exchange it for silver in the yamen?!
Heavens! My ten thousand taels!"
" Uh?" Lu Xiaofeng was stunned after hearing Bai Zhantang's wailing.
After that, he nudged Su Mu with his shoulder and whispered,
"Brother Su, why is Old Bai so greedy?
With his status, he shouldn't be sad over a mere ten thousand taels.”
Lu Xiaofeng lived up to his name as a detective. After staying in the inn for so many days, he had already figured out Lao Bai's background clearly.
In his opinion, Old White, as God Thief, shouldn't be sad over a mere 10,000.
After all, even a prodigal like him sometimes had tens of thousands of taels on him.
Moreover, he had even done something so 'stupid' as to spend tens of thousands of taels of silver to buy a jar of fine wine.
"Uh…" Su Mu awkwardly rubbed his nose and explained in a low voice:
"Old White, this God Thief and the God Thief you heard about might not be the same thing.
Old White was very timid. After stealing valuable items, he would only play with them for a few days before returning them to others.
He had been wandering the martial world for so many years, but he had not even saved a single penny.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone crazy for a few hundred taels of silver when they started the bet.”
"I see." Lu Xiaofeng nodded his head and looked at Lao Bai with admiration,"
"In that case, Old White can be considered a thief.”
He liked to make friends with people with principles like Lao Bai.
"No! We can't just let it go like this!" At this moment, Lao Bai suddenly stopped wailing and walked towards the backyard with a determined expression.
"What are you going to do?" Su Mu suddenly had an ominous feeling in his heart as he hurriedly pulled Old White and asked.
"Little Su, let go of me. I'm going to dig Wei Wuya out!”Lao Bai struggled for a while and said with a ferocious expression,"
"I buried him at the foot of Cuiwei Mountain.
It was very cool there, and it was buried deep underground. Although it had been more than ten days, it must not have completely rotted.
As long as he dug it out quickly, he might be able to see a person's appearance.
When the time comes, we'll clean him up properly and get rid of those maggots."
"Stop, stop, stop!" Su Mu heard that Lao Bai was getting more and more disgusted, so he quickly raised his hand to interrupt him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry:
"I say, Old Bai, there's really no need to do this. Although Wei Wuya is quite hateful, he's already dead.”
As he spoke, he pointed at the five corpses on the ground.
"Although the net worth of these people can't compare to Wei Wuya, the five of them added together can still be worth tens of thousands of taels of silver.
If you don't hurry up and collect your reward, someone else might get there first."
"Xiu" Su Mu hadn't finished speaking when Lao Bai suddenly turned into a blur and rushed out of the inn.
Old White's anxious voice floated in the air,"
"Little Su, I'll go to the yamen now. You must keep an eye on them!”
Su Mu speechlessly pinched the space between his eyebrows and turned to look at the stunned Lu Xiaofeng:
"Lu Xiaofeng, do you still admire Lao Bai?”
Lu Xiaofeng laughed awkwardly,"
"Old White is really... What a true personality!"
"True personality my ass, he's just greedy!”Su Mu was speechless as he turned around and saw Tong Xiangyu coming down from upstairs.
After that, Su Mu's eyes turned and he suddenly thought of a bad idea to harm Lao Bai. He walked towards Tong Xiangyu with a wicked smile:
"Sister Xiangyu, do you believe that men become bad when they have money?”
"Yes!" Although Tong Xiangyu didn't know why Su Mu suddenly asked this question, after thinking for a while, she nodded seriously:
"Uh, I've seen this kind of thing when I was at my maternal family.
There was a family that was originally harmonious and beautiful, but after they suddenly became rich, there were conflicts and they gradually fell apart.
The reason was that the head of that family had married a concubine after he became rich.
And that concubine looked down on the wife of a village girl, so the two of them started fighting, causing the entire house to be filled with smoke!
Therefore, in her opinion, the saying "men become bad when they have money" was a wise saying!”
After saying that, she looked at Su Mu and asked curiously:
"Little Su, why are you suddenly asking this?”
As she spoke, she suddenly thought of something and asked, not knowing whether to laugh or cry,
"Are you referring to Old White?
This was impossible!
He only had three taels of silver a month. Even if he saved for ten years, he would not be considered a rich man.
Unless he comes out of the river again."
At this point, Tong Xiangyu suddenly froze, her face full of fear as she looked at Su Mu:
"Little Su, don't tell me that Old Bai is really going to return to the martial world!”
"He doesn't have that intention, but he'll be rich soon.”Su Mu smiled and shook his head, pointing to the five corpses on the ground:
"These five people are great thieves. They more or less have some reward silver on them. In total, they have tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Lao Bai had just informed the yamen, so he believed that the reward money would come soon.”
At this point, he looked at Tong Xiangyu sincerely and said earnestly,
"Sister Xiangyu, I can see that you've always taken care of me like a younger brother. I'm very grateful.
Listen to your younger brother's advice, don't let Old Bai get rich!
Otherwise, who knew what kind of person he would become!
In my opinion, after he receives the reward, you should quickly take it back.
At most, they would give him a few taels of silver as a reward.”
"That makes sense!" Tong Xiangyu pondered for a while before nodding with a solemn expression.
"Indeed, we can't let Old White have too much silver, or else he'll turn bad.
It's settled then. When he comes back, I'll ask for the silver!”
