The Trick of Longevity, Paper-cutting Becomes a Spirit

Chapter 103 Dividing the spoils
"what--"

Zuo Qiuling's body instantly flattened, turning into a piece of paper, which was quickly put away by Lu Qian.

Seeing this weird scene, Xiaofeng was startled and exclaimed.

Even Wang Zirong's complexion also changed.

Is this the paper bride?

Wang Zirong frowned.

Lu Qian looked at her and said, "Why, it's still too late for you to regret it now."

"regret?"

Wang Zirong only thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "I'm not regretting, I'm just envious of her."

"Oh?"

Wang Zirong took a deep look at Lu Qian, and opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't say it in the end.

Lu Qian was a little puzzled, he turned around, took a step forward with the tiger in his arms, stretched out his ape arm, and pulled Xiaofeng onto the tiger's back.

Then, he crossed the stone bridge, turned to the streets of Zhujiazhuang, and headed east out of the village.

Behind him was the silent Zhujiazhuang, silent in the darkness.

From now on, Maochang County lost another village.

In Maochang County, this is not a rare thing.

If it weren't for the presence of a gentleman named Zhu Shiheng, even the county government wouldn't have sent someone over to take a look.

A village disappears overnight.This is not the first time this happened in Maochang County, nor will it be the last time.

……

When he came outside the village, Lu Qian gathered the tigers together and put them away one by one, until only four remained.

Two tigers carried salutes, one carried the appearance of the king, and the other carried Lu Qian and Xiaofeng.

With Zuo Qiuling disappearing in front of her, and seeing a large group of tigers disappearing for the second time, Xiaofeng's face was calm.

Sitting on the back of a tiger, she silently looked at the busy Lu Qian, and really wanted to ask, "Where is her newly recognized Ling'er?"

However, Xiaofeng glanced at Wang Zirong and didn't speak.

After finishing packing, Lu Qian looked at Wang Zirong and asked, "Where do you live?"

"Houshan Tun."

Houshantun Village is even smaller than Zhaojiatun, with only ten or twenty households, and a more remote small mountain village in the mountains.

When Lu Qian heard that it was this village, he said, "Let's go to Wangjiaying first."

Wang Zirong nodded and did not refute.

In the east, a hint of fish belly has been revealed.

Xiaofeng raised her head and looked at the sky, feeling a sense of exhaustion.

She's a pro... She's been busy all night.

……

……

Run all the way.

Lu Qian finally arrived at his "home" in Wangjiaying before dawn.

Fortunately, Widow Li's house is not far from the entrance of the village, so Lu Qian would not drive the four tigers into the village and cause a sensation.

Watching Lu Qian skillfully open the door and enter the room, Xiaofeng looked at him curiously and said, "Brother Qian, this is..."

Lu Qian said: "This is our other home."

Xiaofeng stared wide-eyed and said, "Are we going to live in Wangjiaying in the future? Are we not going back to Zhaojiatun?"

Xiaofeng's father, her only surviving relative, had died, but she didn't know it yet.

For a while, Lu Qian didn't know how to tell her.

Lu Qian had no choice but to pat her on the shoulder, and gave Wang Zirong a sidelong glance.

Seeing this, Xiaofeng remembered that there were outsiders there, and immediately stopped talking.

She rolled up her sleeves and asked, "Brother Qian, is there anything to eat at this house? Where is the stove, I'll cook for you?"

Lu Qian reached out and pointed to the kitchen for her, and said, "Go ahead, let's talk about business."

"Ah."

Xiaofeng turned around and went into the house to cook.

Lu Qian couldn't help exhaling, and finally didn't have to cook by himself.

Looking at Xiaofeng's back, Wang Zirong looked at Lu Qian and asked with a smile, "Who is this?"

Lu Qian said: "The wife I just married."

"just?"

"Just last night."

Wang Zirong was a little surprised, and it was hard to hide the disappointment in the smile on her face.

However, she immediately smiled and said, "It looks like your wedding was very lively last night."

Lu Qian shrugged and said, "It's okay, I've already 'entertained' all the guests."

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand and said, "Sit down and talk."

In the yard, there is a ginkgo tree.

Under the ginkgo tree, there is a small stone table.

Next to the stone table, there are four stone piers.

The two sat down on the stone pier, while the other two tigers brought four large wooden boxes and laid them on both sides of the stone table.

Wang Zirong's clothes were relatively thin, obviously she couldn't hide anything.

Then, their trophies tonight are all in these four boxes.

Two of the boxes contained silver collars and a very small amount of gold ingots, totaling about 3000 taels (Note 1).

Although Wang Zirong said that tonight could be said to be a "stolen" thing, but for the sake of her honesty, Lu Qian didn't mind giving her a little bit.

Lu Qian first brought down the two boxes of gold and silver, and said, "Let's divide the money first, how much do you want?"

When Wang Zirong heard the words, she immediately cheered up, looked at Lu Qian with a smile on her face, and said, "The old saying is good, half of the meeting is divided."

"roll."

Lu Qian tapped the table with his fingers and said, "I'll give you 300 taels, which is a lot."

Wang Zirong immediately pouted, showing a pitiful expression, and said coquettishly: "Little Brother Lu, can't you give him a little more?"

Lu Qian looked at her in surprise, a little confused, why are practitioners from Dali so interested in these yellow and white things?
"Do you... need money very much?"

"of course."

Wang Zirong said: "Otherwise, why would I set up a stall and do business in such a rain or shine?"

Lu Qian curled his lips and said, "You call that business?"

Wang Zirong raised her finger and said, "Selling wontons, frying oil, making clothes for people, selling odd jobs... which one is not a serious business?"

Ok……

Alone, this guy is about to wrap up the market in Wangjiaying.

The little money from Wang Jiaying is really not enough for her.

Wang Zirong said: "You don't know, it costs a lot of money to raise insects. Besides..."

Speaking of "besides", Wang Zirong's complexion changed slightly, she frowned, and said sullenly: "Besides, there is an old man who is particularly greedy for money, and I have to give him a confession."

"Old man?"

Lu Qian's heart moved, and he asked, "What kind of old man is he?"

How could an "old man" let Second Sister Wang, who was skilled in magic arts, make a confession for him?

Wang Zirong frowned and said: "Don't ask, it's best not to let him know you, or be careful that he will also pester you, and you will be in trouble."

Lu Qian thought for a while, and said, "Is it an old man riding a donkey, and he will also clean up the last straw for you?"

Wang Zirong was taken aback for a moment, and she quickly looked around, as if she was afraid that the old man would pop out suddenly.

Then, she stared at Lu Qian with wide eyes, and said in a low voice, "You... have seen him already?"

Lu Qian said: "It's in the cabin where you put the last straw man. He came the next morning before I left."

"Oh……"

Lu Qian looked at her and said, "Why, when I was in that wooden house, couldn't you see me? Why didn't you see me?"

Wang Zirong said quietly: "My little Brother Lu, he is not a nympho, so he can't just stare at you all night, right?"

Lu Qian: "..."

Wang Zirong blinked at him, and said, "Then... how about it?"

Lu Qian smiled wryly and said, "It's not that good, he cheated me of two taels of silver."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zirong spread out her hands, meaning to say, "Look, I'll just say yes?"

Lu Qian said: "I thought he was doing things for you."

Wang Zirong smiled wryly, and said: "You think highly of me too much, how can I have such great ability."

Lu Qian asked curiously: "The old man, who is it that even you are so afraid of him?"
