Chapter 137 The Magical Effects of the Demon Pill

"Convert it into cash for me?"

Shen Qing was a little surprised. He didn't expect that County Magistrate Du Yuntong had no intention of embezzling.

But he changed his mind and thought that this might not be a means for Du Yuntong to win people's hearts.

Shen Qing glanced at Wang Sanbao and Li Heqing. Seeing the two smiling, he became more certain in his heart.

Although Du Yuntong asked Wang Sanbao and Li Heqing to buy the tiger monster and convert it into cash for him, with the minds of the two old foxes, they would definitely not be stupid enough to buy it directly and bring it back to make Du Yuntong unhappy.

After all, the tiger monster is rare and precious. Everyone would covet it.

The two people said they were the bosses, but they were businessmen with little status in Da Zhou. If they wanted to survive in Taiping County, they could not have been unaware of the principle of leaning on a big tree.

The most likely possibility is that the two of them bought it and then gave it back to County Magistrate Du Yuntong under various names.

At this time, Wang Sanbao looked at Shen Qing and asked, "Does Young Master Shen have a place to stay in the inner city?"

"I'm staying in the outer city for now, and there is no house in the city." Shen Qing said truthfully with a smile on his face.

Wang Sanbao smiled and said, "My Wang family happens to have an idle small courtyard in the inner city. If Young Master Shen doesn't mind, I will exchange three hundred taels and a house for the tiger bones of this tiger monster."

Tiger bones generally have the effect of dispelling wind and dredging meridians, strengthening tendons and bones. They are wild delicacies and have a miraculous effect on martial artists to consolidate their cultivation.

This demon tiger is probably even more effective.

Wang Sanbao is a man who knows what he is doing. A house in the inner city costs about three or four hundred taels, and the total is only about six or seven hundred taels, so it's not a lot to spend.

Shen Qing knew that he seemed to be the protagonist today, but in fact he was just a foil, so he didn't bargain any more and said, "Then I'll do as the boss says."

"Okay." Wang Sanbao immediately took out the house deed that he had prepared long ago and put it on the table, saying, "Young Master Shen, as long as you sign and press it, my house in the east of the city will belong to you."

Shen Qing looked at the house deed with a normal expression, and was very tactful and didn't ask Wang Sanbao why he brought the deed to the banquet, and why he even had the official seal of the government ready...

He took a look and found no problem, so he signed his name directly, pressed his handprint, put it in his arms, arched his hands and said, "Thank you, boss Wang."

After Wang Sanbao finished dealing with it, Li Heqing stepped forward and said, "Since Brother Wang wants the tiger bones, then I'll take the tiger skin and tiger whip. I see that Young Master Shen doesn't have a good horse, so why don't I give Young Master Shen a precious horse, plus three hundred taels."

As soon as he finished speaking, he clapped his hands.

A servant brought a precious horse outside the house.

Shen Qing looked around and saw a black horse standing in the yard.

It was as black as ink, its fur was as smooth as a mirror, its mane was fluttering, and its limbs were strong and powerful.

Even Shen Qing, who didn't know much about horses, knew that this black horse was extraordinary, and it was a real steed.

A good horse was exactly what he needed. Shen Qing said with joy: "Then I will be disrespectful."

"Hahaha, young man Shen is young and promising. It is an honor for this horse to be your mount." Li Heqing said with a smile.

A few people quickly cut up the whole tiger monster.

County Magistrate Du Yuntong said: "Zhang Zaoyi, you call a few people to skin and bones this tiger monster and pack it for the two masters."

"Yes, county magistrate."

Outside the house, officials came forward and carried all the tiger monsters to the side room to slaughter.

After the tiger demon was carried away, the bloody smell in the hall slowly dissipated until it completely disappeared.

County Magistrate Du Yuntong waved to everyone and said, "Okay, all the chores are done. Everyone come over to have a drink. Wang Bantou should come too."

Wang Yanjun's face was calm. Without saying much, she clasped her hands together and saluted, then sat next to Shen Qing.

After all, she is a female martial artist, and with a good foundation, Wang Yanjun has an excellent figure.

She sat on the chair with her back straight, looking a little graceful, and wearing a tight outfit, people couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

"Come on, everyone raise your glasses. Taiping County has eliminated a demon, which is a great joy." County Magistrate Du Yuntong raised the wine glass in his hand and said loudly.

The others respectfully picked up their own wine glasses with both hands and said happily, "Congratulations!"

Putting down the wine glass, Du Yuntong picked up the chopsticks to pick up the dishes.

As the parent official of Taiping County, he is, to some extent, the Baili Hou who holds the power of life and death, and has many talented people under him.

In this Taiping County, a single word can decide life and death.

Therefore, even though he looked very approachable and casual, everyone dared to start eating only after he started eating, not daring to overstep their boundaries.

After three rounds of drinking, Du Yuntong sighed and said, "It's a pity that this tiger monster is a little short of the mark. Otherwise, if it could condense the inner elixir, it would be a first-class treasure for practitioners like us."

Inner elixir?

Shen Qing's eyes lit up.

He pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What's the story here?"

Du Yuntong glanced at Shen Qing and said, "To be honest, Taiping County is not the first place where monsters appear."

"What?"

Du Yuntong continued, "About 30 years ago, a comet fell from the sky, and there were records of monsters appearing in various parts of the Great Zhou. But they were relatively weak, and they were killed on the spot before they caused much trouble."

"During this process, the imperial court discovered that some of the spirits and demons who had attained Taoism contained inner elixirs. This elixir could be taken together with the medicinal soup to strengthen the energy and consolidate the sea of ​​qi. Its effectiveness was comparable to that of the elixirs refined by the imperial court. The magical elixir is even better. Some powerful people have already learned about this and secretly purchase the demon elixir, no matter how good it is, the starting price is over a thousand taels."

"Just a thousand taels to start with?" Shen Qing's heart skipped a beat, feeling that the red inner elixir in her arms was a little hot.

This price is far more precious than those rare mountain treasures.

It was also the first time for Wang Sanbao and others to hear about it, and they couldn't help but be stunned.

After a while, Li Heqing asked: "Your Excellency, I wonder why monsters appear so weird in today's world?"

"I don't know the details. This matter is being investigated by Tianjishu in the imperial court. It is said that it was caused by a falling from the sky. Our world has been infected by demons from outside the territory. I don't know whether it is true or not. I can only say that we should take our own responsibility. Encourage practice to avoid disaster in the future, and we will have no ability to protect ourselves." County Magistrate Du Yuntong looked at everyone with a thoughtful look and said with a smile.

"Come on, if the sky falls, there will be a strong one to hold it up, drink and drink."

"Your Majesty, I'll do whatever you want."

After a few more glasses of wine, the scene became a bit more heated.

At this moment, Zaoban's official had already separated the tiger demon, walked in and said: "Two gentlemen, we have taken care of your things."

Wang Sanbao stepped forward and took a wooden box. After opening it and taking a quick look, he walked up to the county magistrate Du Yuntong with the wooden box and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, there are many tiger bones here. Why don't you take some of them?" ?”
