Zongwu: The Days of Mixing in the Tongfu Inn

Chapter 122 Solve the stench incident

Bai Zhantang suddenly changed his tone and said in a deep voice:

"I'm not what I used to be, I'm innocent now"

"I have been pardoned by the imperial court, but now I am not a person with any criminal case"

After listening to Bai Zhantang's words, Lei Lao Wu had a look of surprise on his face. He knew what Bai Zhantang said, and this kind of opportunity can only be reflected in those who have made contributions to the court.

Seeing Bai Zhantang's complacent look, Lei Laowu knew that Bai Zhantang was not lying, and envy was evident in his eyes, if he had never dismissed such amnesties and pardons from the imperial court before.

In the Jianghu people, especially in the low-class industry, those who despise the court or have a case are famous figures, but he is now over thirty, and he is not the stunned young man he was back then.

Seeing the envious look in Lei Laowu's eyes, Zhang Chen knew that the opportunity had come, and after giving Bai Zhantang a wink, he said:
"Lei Laowu must know that such opportunities are rare, and now there is such an opportunity, I wonder if you would like it?"

Lei Laowu hesitated for a moment when he heard the words, what is the tentative question?
Zhang Chen then recounted in detail the incidents of the constant stench these past few days, emphasizing that the landslide of Cuiwei Mountain had damaged the underground waterway, and did not specifically mention the ancient tomb.

Lei Laowu's eyes flickered a little when he heard the collapse of Cuiwei Mountain. He knew that the accident this time was caused by him touching the mechanism of the ancient tomb by mistake.

As for the stench, he really didn't care about it. After all, almost all the people in his line of work were doing business in the soil, and he had long been accustomed to these smells.

Bai Zhantang chimed in and said:

"Lei Lao Wu, you have to think about it! This time may be a good opportunity for you to change careers. If you clear the pipeline this time, you will definitely be a person with face in Qixia Town, not to mention other places."

"Even our county magistrate will summon you in person. He has been very worried about this matter for the past few days. If you solve his problem, you may be rewarded."

Bai Zhantang's alluring words made Lei Laowu visibly tempted. The opportunity is rare and if he misses it, it may not be when he will have it.

But Lei Laowu didn't know what to think of. After struggling for a while, he pointed to Bai Zhantang and said:
"I still want to compete with Dao Thief Saint again, otherwise I won't be reconciled!"

Zhang Chen and Bai Zhantang looked confused. He was a tomb robber who wanted to compete with a snitch. These two are not in the same industry. What are you competing for?
Bai Zhantang complained and said:

"Although we are both thieves, how can we compete in obvious different industries? You can't let me dig a hole, right? What are you thinking?"

Lei Laowu explained with a look of unwillingness:

"Not for anything else, I just want to fight for our tomb robbery industry"

Hearing this, Zhang Chen knew the real reason for Lei Laowu's contest with Bai Zhantang. He didn't expect him to be quite the axis, and he still hasn't forgotten his original intention and mission.

Bai Zhantang was even more puzzled. He had never offended grave robbers before, nor had he published any criticism of this industry. Where did the hatred come from?

Lei Laowu didn't care about Bai Zhantang's doubts on the surface, but said with a sad face:

"For so many years, our tomb robbers have worked hard and worked hard for their ideals, how much effort and sweat have they devoted to this sacred and great cause?
But in the end?All the honors belong to you who walk the eaves, Thief Saint, Thief God, Thief King, Thief Commander, these nice titles are all you flying thieves!

There is nothing good to say when it is our turn to rob the grave!It's not a ground dragon, it's a gopher, and the best thing to hear is to run fast. If someone says it faster, it might sound like a poker card if you don't pay attention! "

Hearing Lei Lao Wu's heart-wrenching accusation, Zhang Chen couldn't help but burst out laughing. There was no other way, the live performance was more interesting than what he was watching on TV.

Seeing Zhang Chen laugh out loud, Lei Lao Wu pointed at him with a trembling hand and said:
"Look, look, that's what he thinks"

"So I want to compete with you. If you lose, give me the title. I also want to let my colleagues see that we also have pursuits in grave robbers."

There was light in Lei Laowu's eyes when he said this, it seems that he is still very enthusiastic about leaving his name!
Zhang Chen interrupted Lei Laowu's words, and said with a smile:
"You are a tomb robber, reputation is so important to you? Isn't it better to be low-key in your business?"

Lei Laowu shook his head in disapproval, and said unwillingly:

"I just want to be famous. I have determined to be famous in history since I was a child. Unfortunately, our whole family is

Tomb robbers, I have never learned other crafts except this since I was a child.

I can't count on other aspects, so I can only think of a way in my old business. I thought of making a famous celebrity in our industry. Still easy to do”

Lei Lao Wu's words let the two of them understand his real purpose. He is still a person who pursues fame, and his goal is quite clear.

Bai Zhantang understood Lei Laowu's purpose, and said happily:

"Isn't that easier? If I give you the title of Thief, won't it be over?"

Hearing this, Lao Wu shook his head and refused to accept Bai Zhantang's kindness. He wanted to defeat Bai Zhantang in an upright manner before he took over the title of Pirate Saint.

The two looked at each other and saw the helplessness in the eyes of both sides. This guy is really going through such a simple thing as a cutscene, but he made it so complicated.

Lei Lao Wu twisted his head and said again:
"Just compare the strength of your feet. You, the Thief Saint, also got it because of your lightness. What do you think?"

Zhang Chen's eyes lit up, and he said:
"You guys just happen to have a chance, just compare the distance from the inn to the county government, I don't know if you dare to go"

Facing Zhang Chen's questioning words, Lei Laowu snorted coldly and said:

"There is no place in the world that I, Lei Laowu, dare not go to."

After saying that, he jumped over the roof and fell to the ground and left quickly.

Seeing the figure of Lei Laowu going away, Bai Zhantang sighed and said:

"What's the point of competing with him?"

Zhang Chen bumped into Bai Zhantang's shoulder, and looked towards the county government with a smile on his face. Only then did Bai Zhantang understand Zhang Chen's intentions.

The county government office where the lights should normally be turned off is now brightly lit. According to Lei Lao Wu's habit, he must have gone underground. It would be interesting if he showed his face in the county government office today, and Bai Zhantang also showed a playful smile on his face.

The two also flew to the ground and walked slowly towards the street. When the two were talking and laughing as they walked towards the county government office, Lei Lao Wu, who had already set off early, appeared directly in the county government office.

　Thanks for the support!
