Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 136 Cooperation (Large Chapter)
When Mr. Wang heard this familiar name, he was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Mo Ju in front of him with an incredible expression.

When Mo Ju's identity was revealed, his face turned pale immediately, and his eyes became sinister and ferocious. He glared at Master Wang in front of him viciously, wishing he could pounce on him and bite him to death.

Seeing Master Wang's uncertain look, Tiger began to search Mo Ju's body. Then he took out a dagger from his sleeve and handed it to the spirit snake beside him.

The spirit snake picked up the dagger and licked it: "It's still extremely poisonous, the kind that kills instantly when it touches blood."

After saying that, he picked up the wine glass and splashed it on the dagger.

"Zizzizi..."

With a sizzling sound, green bubbles began to appear on the dagger.

The spirit snake took out a dark green medicine block from its sleeve and rubbed it under Master Wang's nose.

"Ah...ah sneeze!"

A loud sneeze came out, and Master Wang trembled all over. The stiffness and limpness in his body also subsided. With a look of shock on his face, he held his hands on Mo Ju's face and said, "You are Cuicui!"

"You are really Cuicui!!"

Looking at the delicate little face in front of him, Mr. Wang suddenly remembered something and tore open Mo Ju's sleeve.

But when he saw a green plum blossom mark on his arm, he burst into laughter: "Hahaha, you are Cuicui, you are still alive! Hahaha, God, uncle thinks about you in his dreams, why did you come back just now?"

After a burst of wild laughter, Master Wang turned his gaze towards the tiger and the spirit snake, his eyes gradually calmed down: "Two heroes, you are not doing us such a big favor for no reason, are you here for the treasure of our Wang family?"

"Not really. We are not interested in your Wang family's treasures. Instead, we want to discuss a cooperation with the Wang family."

"What cooperation?"

"The Changchun Association will move into the Wang family, and half of the incense will be divided among the Changchun Association." Lingshe directly put forward the conditions.

"What did you say?!" Mr. Wang suddenly stood up from his chair.

But Tiger slapped Master Wang on the chair with a slap: "Master, don't get excited. We lions have our reasons for speaking. Wang Cuicui is just a greeting gift. We also show our sincerity behind it."

Tiger finished speaking, sat down and continued, "Everyone knows the tricks of your Wang family. Those guardian gods are just evil spirits you have kept in captivity. You use the names of evil spirits to collect incense, isn't it just for immortality? But with such a small population in this town, hehe, when can you accomplish this?"

After saying that, Lao Hu narrowed his eyes and said, "Cooperate with the Changchun Society. The Changchun Society will send craftsmen to expand the town for you and increase your population. Within a year, the population here will at least increase tenfold. Only then can you be considered the real local emperors. Even if you take away half of the incense, it will be more than ten times more than now."

"Where do you get so many people?"

Although Mr. Wang was tempted, he didn't believe what Tiger said.

Lao Hu took out a design slowly and said, "This is a re-creation furnace. It can re-create ghosts into the appearance of ordinary people. Even if ordinary people die, their souls will fall into the re-creation furnace and can still be re-created. In this way, you only need to launch a large purge every once in a while, and you can harvest a wave of incense offerings. After that, the dead people will be re-created by the re-creation furnace, their memories will be erased, and they will live their lives as before."

Mr. Wang Er looked at the blueprint in front of him and his breathing began to become rapid. If this was true, then their Wang family would no longer be local emperors.

And the price is just half of the incense.

Compared to Mr. Wang’s excitement, Xiao Ran’s mood was extremely bad.

When Tiger took out the design of the regeneration furnace, Xiao Ran couldn't help but think of the campus again: "The Changchun Society is really a bunch of crazy lunatics."

Before it was a campus, and now it is this small town. If they can really complete it, Xiao Ran can even foresee what this town will look like in the future.

"Good, good."

Mr. Wang reached out to take the blueprint, his face filled with unstoppable joy. Today was a great day for their Wang family. Cuicui was back, and the Wang family had new opportunities.

But soon, Master Wang gradually calmed down, picked up the wine glass, took a sip, took a few deep breaths, and then said, "I promise you, you have to do me a favor."

"what?"

"Help me take control of the Wang family."

The Wang family is nominally controlled by Second Master Wang, but in reality it is the old master who controls the family, and those evil spirits created by them only obey the old master's words.

He didn't care in the past. He had enough offerings and the Wang family had the final say. The old man only cared about evil spirits and never asked about the affairs of the Wang family. But if the Wang family is going to become a behemoth in the future, then these evil spirits can no longer be controlled by the old man.

"This……"

Tiger frowned, they didn't want to have any contact with the old man. Although that guy was trapped in the shrine, both of them could feel the horror of this old thing. They might not be his opponent, and this didn't fit in with their original idea.

"Don't worry, I won't let you go against the old man. You just need to help me take the orb on the shrine. The orb is the treasure of the Wang family. As long as I get the orb, I will naturally become the master of the Wang family, and those evil spirits will not dare to disobey my orders."

"You want us to rob it right under the noses of all those evil spirits?"

The tiger opened his eyes wide, they were no match for those evil spirits.

"I can take you in, to the old man, at least five steps away. Whether you can snatch it depends on your own ability."

The tiger and the snake looked at each other.

"Why, you don't want to get something for nothing, do you? If you let me take all the risks alone, I might as well just lie in bed."

The second master raised his head with an attitude of not releasing the eagle until he saw the rabbit, which made the tiger and the snake feel a little embarrassed.

"What about her?"

The spirit snake turned its gaze towards the black chrysanthemum on the ground.

"Of course she is useful. She is the only one who knows how to activate the orb."

The second master stood up and pinched Mo Ju's chin: "Think about it carefully, niece. If you are willing to tell me, your uncle will not treat you badly in the future. But if you don't tell me, don't blame your uncle for being cruel."

"What do you think?" The second master looked back.

The tiger and the snake looked at each other and nodded: "I hope you will keep your word."

"I told a lie, and I will die!"

After the three of them reached a cooperation, Lao Hu remembered Xiao Ran who was poisoned nearby, and slapped his thigh: "Oops, I forgot, hurry up and detoxify Brother Niupi."

The spirit snake walked up to Xiao Ran, but instead of detoxifying him, it stretched out its hand, took out a pill, handed it to Xiao Ran, and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

With a press of his finger, Xiao Ran swallowed it directly.

Then he took out the antidote to detoxify Xiao Ran. When the numbness in his body subsided, Xiao Ran got up from the ground with a dark face.

"What does it mean??"

"Brother Niupi, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that the matter is of great importance, so I have to inconvenience you." The spirit snake said expressionlessly.

Tiger stood aside: "As long as we get the stuff, we will give you the antidote right away."

"What if I don't want to participate?" Xiao Ran stared at the snake in front of him.

"If you don't want to participate, just lie here and we won't kill you. But if you don't take the antidote within four hours, even a god can't save you."

As he spoke, the spirit snake had already picked up the fan he had used before. The fan was flashing with fluorescent light. As long as Xiao Ran dared to resist, this fan would make him faint.

No matter what methods Xiao Ran had, they were not enough to pose a threat to the spirit snake and the tiger.

After all, the suppression of the D-level over the E-level cannot be made up by cursed objects alone. Xiao Ran was furious, but he could do nothing about it. He could only nod after a while: "I hope you keep your word."

"The Changchun Association never breaks its promise!"

As Lao Hu spoke, he took out a sign from the space and threw it to Xiao Ran. No one knew what the sign was made of. It felt very heavy in the hand, but upon closer inspection, it looked like a piece of wood.

There is a word "Spring" written on it.

This is exactly what Tiger mentioned before: [Changchun Brand] can be exchanged for any E-level item in Changchun Club.

"This is a benefit given to you in advance, and what I said before still counts."

Xiao Ran put the sign away silently, stood aside and looked coldly at Mo Ju on the ground, with an expression as if it had nothing to do with him.

There was no time to lose. The Second Master did not dare to delay any further. Having missed this opportunity, it would not be easy to ask the Old Master to come out again. He immediately took Xiao Ran and the others to the front hall.

On the way, Lao Hu discussed the plan with Xiao Ran; "We will be responsible for attracting the old man later, Niupi will go to grab the orb on the shrine, and Lingshe will pick you up as soon as possible. After getting the orb, hand it over to the second master as soon as possible."

"Why me?" Xiao Ran asked with a frown.

"I saw you climbing over the wall just now. You are quite good at light work. It seems that you are a bandit. I will definitely leave this to you."

When the three of them separated before, the tiger and the spirit snake noticed when Xiao Ran climbed over the wall.

The original intention of shaking him off was to deliberately expose his flaws, make some noise, and attract everyone away, making it easier for them to proceed to the next step. However, they did not expect this guy to get upstairs first.

This forced the spirit snake to consume its precious CD to activate [Crystal Butterfly]

After hearing what Lao Hu said, Xiao Ran had no way to refute it, but this arrangement was also in line with Xiao Ran's idea. If he could get the pearl, at least he could be sure to exchange it for the antidote.

As for Moju...

At this moment, Xiao Ran could no longer care about her. He could only silently say in his heart: "May the best of luck to you."

……

At this moment, bucket after bucket of fragrant oil was brought up in the front hall.

These fragrant oils are mixed with a large amount of red incense ash. Although they are not as delicious as ointments, they are also a rare delicacy for these evil spirits.

The big-headed monk held a bucket of sesame oil and poured it into his mouth.

From time to time, some of it leaked out of his mouth and fell on the heads of the two people below with ox eyes and ox legs.

The two were wrapped in the big-headed monk's robes and could not escape. They could only hope that the big-headed monk was well fed.

The two men looked around from time to time, looking for an opportunity to escape. Niu Yan accidentally glanced at the old man's shrine in front of them.

Looking at that dull face, a pair of eyes would occasionally scan the hall. The empty look in those eyes made him feel as if his soul was leaving his body. He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat and quickly turned his head away, not daring to look again.

At this time, a burst of laughter came from outside the door.

"Old man, great joy, great joy!"

I could hear Erye's laughter from afar, and when I looked up, I saw Erye and his men striding in.

What surprised Niu Yan and the others was that there were four people following Er Ye. In addition to Mo Ju, who was almost supported in the middle and was pulled in, there were also the two people from Changchun Society, and Niu Pi, who had caused them to end up in the fields.

"Bullshit, you bastard!!"

Seeing Niupi's figure, Niuyan couldn't help but open his mouth to curse, but he didn't expect that as soon as he opened his mouth, his mouth was covered by the big head monk's mouth in the next second.

The second master walked up to the old master, lay down under the shrine, and looked up: "Dad, Dad, look, who's back."

Following the second master's call, the old man in the shrine opened his eyelids and looked at his son woodenly.

At this time, the tiger and the spirit snake walked forward, carrying the stiff Mo Ju.

The Second Master pinched Mo Ju's head and said, "Look, who is this? This is Cuicui. The Cuicui you've always thought about is back."

"Cui Cui!"

A faint charm gradually emerged in his empty eyes. The moment the old man slowly raised his head, everyone in the whole hall, whether it was Xiao Ran or those evil spirits, felt an indescribable sense of oppression.

The air around seemed to freeze.

"Kakakaka..."

The shrine was shaking as a hand slowly pulled it out from the nail.

The moment the hand was raised, wisps of black mist poured out from the shrine. The voices of those who had once offered incense in the land temple floated in the black smoke. These figures were either clear or blurred, either quiet or struggling.

Xiao Ran and the other two all felt a suffocating sense of despair.

"Damn it, this guy might have turned into a demon."

Tiger couldn't help but feel a little hesitant, wondering whether to help Master Wang Er. After all, the oppressive feeling brought to them by the old man in front of them was too strong, not to mention the other evil spirits around, who were staring at them with wide eyes and greedy eyes.

"Cui Cui, is that you?"

The old man slowly opened his mouth, and pink ointment flowed out of his mouth. He placed his palms on Mo Ju's face, and his eyes became more and more kind, so kind that it made people feel scared.

"Of course it's Cuicui!"

The second master came forward and lifted Mo Ju's sleeve, revealing the plum blossom-shaped mark on his arm.

"Dad, look, this plum blossom mark was given to her by you back then."

As Erye spoke, he secretly winked at Tiger and the others behind him.

Seeing this, the tiger calmly put his hands in his pockets, and the spirit snake retreated silently. At the same time, a rope stained with dirty blood appeared in the spirit snake's hand.

Xiao Ran took a deep breath and looked up at the top of the shrine. He saw two golden dragons entwined around a green bead on the golden shrine. Obviously, that was the so-called treasure of the Wang family.

The three of them looked at each other.

"Do it!"

When Tiger raised his hand, a handful of paper figures fell out of his sleeve. Suddenly, countless densely packed paper figures split apart, as if a white storm had rolled up out of thin air and exploded in the air.

Xiao Ran quickly jumped up and stepped on the tiger's shoulder, using the momentum to climb up onto the shrine.

But before he could stretch out his hand, the gold paint on the shrine fell off, and the two golden dragons coiled on the orb revealed their true appearance. Two poisonous snakes with heads like iron brands slowly turned their heads, spitting out long tongues, and pounced towards Xiao Ran.

"grass!"

Looking at the poisonous snake whose head was bigger than his fist, Xiao Ran's face suddenly changed. He crushed several strength and speed talismans in his hands, flipped over in the air, dodged the poisonous snake, and chopped it with a knife.
