Fumo Town is actually a very ordinary town.
Although it is called "Fu Mo", this town is located in the cold northern border, but it doesn't have a family of immortals with supernatural powers, and can't find any people with supernatural powers. Most of the townspeople just make a living by farming. If you want to find out where this majestic name came from, it's just that there is a demon tower in the north of the city, and there is naturally a demon mountain next to it. As for whether the tower is really inhabited by demons and ghosts, even the oldest Uncle Zhang in the town and Li Xiucai, the most knowledgeable person, can't tell.
Today is the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. As the New Year draws to a close, the peasants have finished their hard work for a year and are all free. Small traders and hawkers are still busy, preparing to make more money a year ago. There are many idlers on the street, which is the busiest time of the year. The women were busy organizing New Year's goods, lingering in front of various stalls, thinking about pulling two feet of floral cloth for their children to make clothes, and buying themselves some rouge gouache. Men have nothing to do, most of them gather in teahouses and restaurants, call three or five friends, and drink tea together and brag.
Linxianlou is the largest teahouse in the town. It is said to be the largest, but it is only a two-story building. The name Linxian always makes people think that it echoes the name of the town, which means that the devil is one foot taller, the road is one foot taller. However, the reason for the name has long been untested. In this small place with no magic and no immortals, it is probably just a good picture.
Early this morning, Xiao Li, the guy from Linxian Building, opened the door early, cleaned the tables, chairs, and benches, ready to do business.
As time approached, the number of people in the teahouse gradually increased. The little two walked through the lobby flexibly. The storyteller has arrived, and he has changed his clothes and is ready to open. Xiao Li was a little absent-minded, and his eyes were always drifting towards the door.
A burly man walked in through the door, with a beard and triangular eyes. His hair was sloppily tied with a string, and he wore a dark blue cloth that seemed to have not been washed for several days. There were two people beside him: one was tall and thin, dressed in black, with a large knife slung around his waist, and he was murderous; Mr. Teacher. As soon as the three people came in, they glanced at all the visitors, and then found a seat by the door.
Xiao Li shuddered, seeing that they were seated, and greeted them to order and serve tea. In the past month, some Jianghu people have come to the city one after another. Not to mention swords and swords, even their eyes are ferocious and scary.
Boringly turned his head to look at the door, suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he rushed out to greet him.
"Master Zhang, you're here! Please come inside, please come inside." Xiao Li bowed to show the way, and brought in a young master.
The visitor wears a long jacket with a blue background and cloud brocade, a purse with auspicious luck hanging on the multi-colored pendant, the cuffs are embroidered with gold thread, the outer cover is a large cloak made of squirrel skin, and the collar is surrounded by fox fur, which is called Yubai. face. Sword eyebrows into the temples, eyes with peach blossoms. The nose is slightly pointed, and the mouth is smiling lazily, like a rich and noble son.
"It's still the old position, close to the storytelling desk, so that no one else will quarrel with you!" Xiao Li diligently served the young master Zhang and sat down, "The tea and snacks are still the same?"
"You have to work." Zhang Gongzi nodded with a smile on his face, with a hint of excitement in his eyes, grabbed the melon seeds and slowly knocked, waiting for Mr. Storyteller to start.
"Meow~" The young man actually had a small head sticking out of his sleeve, with his small ears sticking out, and rubbing against the gold-lined cuff, it turned out to be a kitten with black round spots on a yellow background.
Seeing that it stretched out its small furry paws and scratched the melon seeds on the table, the tip of its nose came close to smell it, and it probably felt that there was nothing to eat, so it turned around and scratched the owner's sleeve, and retracted its head angrily.
Xiao Li was making tea in front of the tea table, feeling that there was a chance of rewarding money today, and couldn't help smiling.
"Hey, Mr. Zhang is here again?" The shopkeeper asked in a low voice, calculating.
"No, it's been ten days. I've never seen Ai Ting Shu Ai like this."
"What about him, it's business when you come here, and you'll be rewarded if you're happy with the book." The shopkeeper continued to bow his head and settle accounts with a virtuous face.
"That son, it is said that he came to Lujia Village to receive the goods, an antique dealer." Xiao Chen next to him also came to join in the fun.
"Then how do you live in our town?"
"The place in Lujia Village has poor mountains and bad waters. Where can such a rich and noble son live? Just let the wind out and someone will deliver it."
"Go, go, go and greet the guests, what are you talking about here?" The shopkeeper drove away.
As soon as Xiao Li picked up the teapot, a burst of laughter broke out in the teahouse, and a fragrant wind blew past. Seeing that the young lady of the Wu family in the east of the street escaped out of the door, her face was flushed as if she was about to drip blood, along with the tips of her ears. All red.
What's going on here
Xiao Li served Young Master Zhang some refreshments. Seeing Young Master Zhang's face a little embarrassed, he still smiled and thanked him. He didn't think much about it, and went back to the counter again.
Xiao Chen came over with his stomach in his hands, grabbed Xiao Li, and grinned his cheeks.
"Brother Li, Brother Li, it's Mr. Zhang's kitten."
"What happened to the copper coins?"
"Ah, that cat is called Tong Qian. Hahaha, that's a really good name. You don't know, haha, just now, the little lady of the Wu family thought the cat was cute, so she picked it up and teased it twice. Guess what?"
Xiao Li rolled his eyes and waited for him to continue.
Xiao Chen finally stopped laughing: "When Mrs. Wu put the cat down, she saw a small embroidered bag on the cat's paw. Yes, ahem, it's Mrs. Wu's purse." Xiao Li was at a loss. Madam Wu is angry
Xiao Chen approached mysteriously and said, "It's in the clothes, the purse in his arms, what do you think the cat is... hehe!"
Xiao Li stayed for a while. It turned out not to be angry, I was afraid that I was too embarrassed.
There were idle people in the teahouse, and the parents talked for a long time. When this happened, people immediately talked about it, and it was very lively for a while.
The bearded man who entered the door just now glanced at the man who looked like a master and asked, "Mr. Wang used to be a cultivator. Do you think there is something strange about that cat?"
This "Zeng Shi" made the master's eyes dim, but after a moment, the master lowered his voice and said: "The country people don't know goods, so where is the cat, it's a spirit beast, and it's a treasure beast."
"Really?" The whiskers are a little disbelieving, so a small one is still a cat no matter what.
"Of course, I have seen it in the south. The treasure-conscious beast is originally a monster from the East China Sea, and its monster power is not strong, so it can't transform into a human shape. It usually appears in the shape of a small animal, and most of it takes the shape of a cat. You see. Just now, the little lady's coat was intact, but the purse inside was able to be taken out, precisely because the treasure-conscious beast can fetch treasure from the air."
The two raised their heads and glanced at Zhang Gongzi. The noble son had returned to his natural state, and he was only excitedly waiting for Mr. Chen, who was the storyteller, to start.
Mr. Chen cleared his throat.
"What I'm talking about today is the battle between fairy and demons fifty years ago.
Young Master Zhang could not take his eyes off of him, and the little cat also popped out of his sleeve, staring at the stage with round eyes.
"... A disciple from the Southwest Witch Doctor Valley rebelled and assassinated an elder in Moyun Mountain. Fortunately, someone found it and immediately arrested him."
Immediately, someone in the audience commented: "Hum, if you are not of my race, their hearts will be punished."
Zhang Jinjin quietly rolled his eyes and wanted to touch the cat's head, but the kitten patted his paw.
An hour passed and the story was finished. Mr. Chen received the reward and drank tea and was about to go home, but suddenly someone said, "Mr.'s book is wonderful, but it's all in the past. During this period of time, legends in the Jianghu town have Treasure, why don't you talk about this treasure, sir?"
Hearing this, Young Master Zhang, who was sitting in the front row, also became interested. He glanced at the speaker with a smile, and then eagerly looked back at Mr. Chen's face.
Mr. Chen raised his head and spoke to the bearded man who came in earlier.
"Yes, yes!" Everyone was talking. Somehow, there have been rumors recently that there is a treasure in Fumo Town, which is under the Fumo Tower. During this time, there are more strangers in the town, and the New Year is approaching, and these people do not go home for the New Year.
Hearing that there was a new topic, a few townspeople who were about to leave sat down again, took another pot of tea and a plate of peanuts, and continued to listen, continue to listen.
Xiao Li was busy serving tea and snacks, and the shopkeeper was secretly happy.
Mr. Chen glanced at everyone, thought for a moment and said, "This Fumo Town has been built for a long time, and I never heard of treasures in the early years. Since the Fumo Tower is called this name, I don't think it is the cemetery of any big family. Most of the people who live in this town know the bottom line. If there is a treasure, it will not be buried by these generations. But if it has been buried for a long time, it is unreasonable that no one cares about it for all these years. , make a mistake!"
Hearing this, the bearded man sneered and said nothing. On the other hand, Mr. Wang, who looked like a master, stood up, bowed his hands and said, "Thank you sir for clarifying your doubts!" He sat down and continued drinking tea.
Mr. Chen finally packed his things and set off to go home.
There was no story to listen to, and Young Master Zhang also felt that it was boring to sit, so he reached out to invite Xiao Li to settle the account and give the money.
Xiao Li took the tea money as a reward, and was elated, and asked diligently, "Young Master will come tomorrow? I'll keep the place for you."
"Tomorrow," Zhang Gongzi's peach blossom eyes slanted, and he glanced at the beard inadvertently, "I don't know, let's see the situation!" After speaking, he patted Xiao Lizi on the shoulder. Xiao Hua Mao climbed out of his sleeves, jumped onto his shoulders, lay on his shoulders, and followed Zhang Gongzi out of Linxian Tower.
Xiao Li sent him all the way out, and when he came in, he saw the bearded gentleman beside him, beckoning him to pass.
He scurried to the table: "Several lords, what do you want to serve?"
"It's nothing, I'll ask you, the young man you sent away just now is a local?"
"That Mr. Zhang, it is said that he is an antique dealer who came to receive the goods. I don't know where he came from. You guys..."
Seeing Xiao Er's defensive face, the bearded man smiled and said, "Don't worry, we're not kidnappings. We just looked at his kitten being funny and asked casually."
I really like that cat! Xiao Li breathed a sigh of relief: "That cat is interesting, and everyone in the town likes it."
When the bearded man saw that Xiao Er was gone, he lowered his voice and asked the master, "Tell me, what is the origin of this young master Zhang?"
The moustache said: "An antique dealer, who also has a treasure beast in his pocket, must be a treasure hunter. Eighty percent of the time he came for the treasure. We've been looking for it all the way, and the people in the gang are not optimistic. I originally I was also a little shaken. I just wanted to try my luck a few years ago, but today I saw this spirit beast." Master rolled his eyes, "I'm afraid the rumors are true, and there are real treasures here."
"Could it be a tricky one?"
"I don't think so." The man with the knife pondered: "Looking at his vain footsteps, he doesn't seem like a skilled man."
"Okay, let's just stare at the surnamed Zhang and try to get the spirit beast over."
"Spiritual beasts are hard to control, I'm afraid we have to get people too."
Hearing this, the man with the knife had already stood up, nodded towards the beard, and left the restaurant. The remaining two drank tea and discussed some details, then got up to pay the bill and walked out.
When the two came out to the street, the man with the knife had already turned around and said to the bearded man in a low voice, "He is the only one in the Yuelai Inn in front of the inn, Room No. With a buddy, but he hasn't been around for a few days."
The bearded man made up his mind: "Second Master, Mr. Wang, then tonight, let's take the guy to the inn and rob him to go to the Demon Tower. Find the treasure early and go back to the New Year early, Sanniang is still at home waiting for me!"
Thinking of the eldest's concubine who looked like a flower like jade, the two smiled lewdly and nodded in agreement.
At the beginning of the night, the town was silent. The three bearded men quietly came to the downstairs of the Yuelai Inn. This Qiankun bag is one of the magic weapons of Xianmen. It looks small, but it can hold a lot of things, and it is light and easy to carry. It just needs the blessing of magic formulas, and ordinary people can't use it. It seems that it is Mr. Wang who has cultivated immortality thing.
The three of them were about to jump up to the second floor, but the back door of the inn opened with a "knowing" sound, but they saw that Mr. Zhang, dressed in white and wearing a light fur, walked out of the back door of the inn so undisguisedly without stopping. Go to the direction of the Demon Tower.
The three of them lurked all the way behind. The boy didn't walk fast, but he was very alert. He walked all the way and looked back. From time to time, the kitten poked its head from his sleeve.
The Fumo Tower was not far from the city, and it only took half an hour to reach the tower.
I don't know what era it is a relic of the Fumo Tower. The tower is seven stories high, and it stands in the middle of a hill in darkness. When a gust of wind blows, the iron bells hanging on the eaves of the tower dangling, but it didn't make a sound. The three of them watched the young man reach out and touch a pagoda door, not knowing whether it was dust or moss, they retracted their hands with disgust, and took out a handkerchief from their bodies to wipe their hands. While he was bowing his head, the three of them quietly flanked up. Before Young Master Zhang had time to look up, the second master's dazzling big knife was placed on his neck.
"Ah~" Zhang Gongzi froze with fright, and after a long while he said, "Hero, spare your life!"
The bearded man walked in front of him and asked, "Young master didn't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you doing here?"
"I... I enjoy the scenery, the scenery."
"Come to enjoy the view in the middle of the night?"
"Ah, I'm appreciating the moon, appreciating the moon!" Zhang Gongzi's voice was a little trembling.
Moustache looked up at the sky, dark clouds covered him.
"Ming people don't speak secretly," Beard was too lazy to entangle with him, "At this time, you came to the Fumo Tower, you said you didn't come to find treasures, who would believe it? The masters are also here to find treasures, so let's work together. Find something to share, how about that?"
"Several heroes, I really didn't come to find treasures." Zhang Gongzi looked helpless, just thinking about how to get away.
"Son, don't pretend," Moustache reminded him, "Is it a coincidence that you came to this legendary place where the treasure is buried with the beast that knows the treasure?"
"Ah, that's a kitten, it's just a kitten!" Zhang Gongzi looked aggrieved.
"Do you dare to deny it!" Beard got impatient and punched Zhang Gongzi in the stomach. The rich and noble son could withstand the beating, so he bent down suddenly, his body shrunk like a shrimp, but tightly He rolled up his sleeves, for fear that the kitten would run away.
Beard was puzzled, and kicked two more random kicks, and then he heard Zhang Gongzi shouting: "Don't fight, stop fighting, cooperate, cooperate!"
"Isn't this all right?" The mustache pulled him up, "Our Pure Land Gang has always kept our word!"
"Jing, the Pure Land Gang?" Your young master suddenly realized that he had met a connoisseur.
The Pure Land Gang, which sounds like a gang of monks, is actually a group of tomb robbers. That Pure Land refers to the tombs stolen by this group of thieves, and in the end, only the soil remains.
"You know how good it is? Don't worry, if you want, we can work together for a long time." Beard patted Young Master Zhang on the shoulder and patted the person crookedly, "You have spirit beasts, we have hands, and there will be a big tomb that day. Isn't it all in our hands? Hahaha!"
Young Master Zhang glanced at the beard who was dreaming and nodded sullenly.
"Then let's get started!" Mustache gave him a push.
"Okay, okay. Start, start."
Zhang Gongzi took the kitten out of his sleeve. The cat was not big, and he held its belly with one hand. The noble man shivered again and took out a yellow talisman from his sleeve, placed it on the cat's back and pressed it. The kitten suddenly let out a "meow", her eyes glowed green, jumped out of Zhang Gongzi's hands and ran into the tower, and in a blink of an eye, it got in through the hole under the tower door.
The four quickly caught up, knocked open the tower door, and followed the kitten all the way.
When I got to the tower, I found that the tower was not big at all. There was a wooden ladder in the middle, and the cat had jumped on the ladder.
"Bronze coins, slow down!" Zhang Gongzi shouted.
"It's called copper coins? What about you?" Moustache stared at Young Master Zhang's every move, intending to write down all his words and actions.
"Next Zhang Jinjin."
A gold, a bronze, really a family.
The four followed the copper coins to the second floor of the Demon Demon Tower, but the cat didn't go up again, but stopped in front of the backing tower wall and scratched the tower wall with its claws.
"What do you mean?" Beard asked.
"Uh, it should be... to demolish the wall." Zhang Jinjin panted.
"Demolition the wall? Not at the bottom of the tower?" No wonder he stepped on it a few times, and felt that there was nothing unusual at the bottom of the tower.
The second master took off the Qiankun bag on his body, took out two shovels, and a set of strange-shaped tools. Beard and Er Dangjia started to tear down the wall without saying a word. As expected of an expert, in less than half a column of incense, they demolished a large hole in the tower wall, and the back of the wall was empty.
The copper coins let out a meow, passed through the hole in the wall, and ran out of the tower, and the four quickly followed.
Behind is a natural cave, and the four of them, led by copper coins, ran through the cave and found a downward stone step in the corner.
"Grandma's, there really is a door!" The three tomb robbers were all excited.
The passage under the stone steps should have a mechanism, but the four of them, led by the copper coins, went all the way without danger. Beard thought while walking, this spirit beast is good. After finishing this vote, be sure to grab this spirit beast and take it for your own use. He raised his head, exchanged glances with Moustache, Moustache glanced at Zhang Jinjin in front of him, and nodded lightly.
The passage is a bit long, and several people walked a little out of breath. Bronze Coin is full of energy, lightly and cleverly all the way, leading everyone around the organization, and occasionally looking back. Zhang Jinjin followed closely behind the copper coins, followed by Beard and Mr. Wang, who was cut off with a knife by the second master.
There is a corner in front, and the passage suddenly ends when you turn around, and there is another cave in front of you. The difference is that in the middle of the cave, in the darkness, something is glowing slightly white.
