Sun Qiaoshan was also looking towards the door.
Bai Jing immediately got up and walked towards the door. When he opened the door, he saw another bowl placed at the door, containing about twice the amount of gold as before. Most importantly, standing next to the bowl was the female weasel that Bai Jing had released earlier.
Chapter 21 White Yellow Weasel
Upon seeing the arriving weasel, Bai Jing picked up the porcelain bowl from the ground.
Then Bai Jing carried the porcelain bowl and walked into the house.
As Bai Jing opened the cage, the two male weasels inside came to the door and did not leave immediately. Instead, they followed the female weasel and bowed to Bai Jing three times.
Seeing this, Bai Jing laughed and said, "Alright, don't steal chickens from the village anymore. If you want chickens, you can exchange them for gold or silver."
As he spoke, Bai Jing took out some gold beans from the bowl and gestured to the three weasels.
The three weasels bowed to Bai Jing again and then left.
Suddenly, Bai Jing seemed to realize something and abruptly went outside to look at a distant mountain peak.
There were two pure white yellow weasels worshipping the sun.
Bai Jing realized in an instant that this was a mental attack from the two weasels.
However, Bai Jing did not expect that the spiritual power of these two white and yellow weasels was so strong that it could affect him.
Bai Jing knew that the two weasels were not actually around him, but some distance away.
Seeing this, Bai Jing dared not delay and immediately began to form hand seals, then pressed them sharply on his own body.
This is a method from the "Tomb Catalogue" specifically designed to deal with attacks from various venomous snakes, ferocious beasts, and demons in tombs or in the wild.
What Bai Jing is currently using is to strengthen his own mental defenses, so that he can be immune to the effects of the environment.
Bai Jing completely calmed down the moment the two weasels finished their worship.
At that moment, Sun Qiaoshan also noticed Bai Jing's unusual behavior.
Immediately, Sun Qiaoshan asked, "Kid, what's wrong with you?"
Bai Jing shook his head upon hearing this, then glanced at Sun Qiaoshan, thought for a moment, and asked, "Uncle Qiaoshan, have you ever seen a weasel that is completely white?"
Upon hearing this, Sun Qiaoshan was stunned for a moment, then said, "A yellow skin with a pure white body? How is that possible?"
Bai Jing naturally understood what Sun Qiaoshan meant, and also what the yellow weasel covered in white fur signified.
But at this moment, he still asked, "Just now, I saw two creatures covered in fur. I wonder what Grandpa Knocks Mountain thinks about that?"
Upon hearing this, Sun Qiaoshan said with a serious expression, "Legend has it that a weasel grows a white hair every thirty years. If it wanted to be covered in white hair, how many years do you think it would have to have lived?"
Bai Jing fell silent upon hearing this.
If it were in a past life, if I saw a white weasel, I would only think it had albinism.
But this world has ancient gods, and each of those ancient gods has lived for countless years.
Legend has it that the nine-headed insect flew beyond the primordial chaos of heaven and earth, possessing boundless power even before the world was born.
The Serpent God's eyes can open up imaginary space, and the Serpent God's burial ground can also form a bottomless ghost cave.
If even such a creature is real, then what about the weasel that has lived for who knows how many years?
Perhaps these two weasels are even older than the history of human civilization.
Bai Jing didn't ask any further questions, but casually said, "Yesterday..."
The weasel grave we visited should be related to these two, too.
Bai Jing's voice wasn't loud, but it was just loud enough for the people inside the room to hear.
Upon hearing this, Sun Qiaoshan didn't say much, but simply gave Bai Jing a deep look.
Then, Bai Jing took out the gold beans that Huang Pizi had given him earlier, plus the second batch, totaling about two liang (each liang is approximately 31.25 grams).
Bai Jing took a portion of the gold beans, put the rest in his pocket, and then walked towards Sun Qiaoshan with those gold beans. Sun Qiaoshan looked at Bai Jing walking towards him, staring intently, but said nothing.
Bai Jing placed the gold coins on the table and said, "This is what we agreed on with Hua Mei yesterday. The five of us would split the weasels we caught. Now that the weasels have been converted into gold, this is Hua Mei's share."
After saying that, Bai Jing stepped back, clasped his hands together, and raised them slightly to the upper right. Then he said, "Grandpa, you go ahead with your work. It's getting late, and I should head back."
After saying that, Bai Jing walked outside, closing the door behind him.
The room fell into an eerie silence.
Sun Qiaoshan was carefully considering the etiquette Bai Jing had just performed, and then he combined it with what Huamei had told him earlier, that Bai Jing and Hu Bayi had said some things he couldn't understand in the Weasel Grave.
Sun Qiaoshan, being well-informed, could tell that Bai Jing had just performed the etiquette of a bandit.
Combined with what Bai Jing had said about drawing eyebrows earlier, Sun Qiaoshan knew that Bai Jing was revealing part of his identity to him.
Moreover, it is certain that Bai Jing has already figured out part of his identity.
One thing is certain: Bai Jing is an expert in tomb raiding.
Although judging from Bai Jing's age, he certainly hadn't been to any large tombs, some common sense things were still quite obvious.
Even within the bandit world, different professions are ranked in terms of superiority or inferiority.
In ancient times, all professions of outlaws were divided into seventy-two trades, such as tomb raiding, banditry, horse banditry, mountain banditry, and running black market inns.
Among these 72 industries, tomb raiding ranks first.
As the saying goes: Of the seventy-two professions, tomb raiding is king.
Although this profession is despised by the world for profiting from the dead, the courage, knowledge, skills and traditions it embodies are unparalleled by any other profession, hence the saying.
After all, tomb raiders know many things that other professions do, but some of the tricks of the trade are not something that everyone can understand.
Combined with the previous conversation about drawing eyebrows, Sun Qiaoshan was almost certain that Bai Jing must be from the lineage of the Tomb Raiders.
The "Tomb Raider Captains" are the most elite members of the tomb raiding industry.
Therefore, Sun Qiaoshan also began to make plans at this moment.
However, he understood that Bai Jing was not easily fooled, and they hadn't known each other for very long, so Bai Jing might not be fooled by him.
The most crucial point now is that Bai Jing and his group have already entered the weasel grave, and the grave is empty. Clearly, the contents have been stolen.
Immediately, Sun Qiaoshan also began to consider other possibilities.
Immediately, Sun Qiaoshan also got up and followed Bai Jing toward the village.
On the way, Sun Qiaoshan was plotting how to scheme against Bai Jing and his group.
Ganggangyingzi is not far from the forest farm, and Bai Jing and his companion arrived at the place after walking for about half an hour.
When Bai Jing and Sun Qiaoshan arrived at the scene, the blind old woman was still treating Huamei.
Chapter 22 Night Talk
As soon as Sun Qiaoshan entered the door, he immediately looked at the blind old woman and asked, "Auntie, what illness does my daughter have?"
Seeing Sun Qiaoshan's anxious expression, Bai Jing was at a loss for words.
It's unclear whether Sun Qiaoshan was genuinely worried about Huamei's safety or was thinking about something else entirely.
Upon hearing this, the blind old woman lowered her voice and said to Sun Qiaoshanhe and Bai Jing, "Completely disoriented and utterly lost, it seems that the Great Immortal Huang has come to visit."
Upon hearing this, Bai Jing couldn't help but purse his lips.
How could he not see that the eyebrow-drawing problem was an epileptic seizure?
However, Bai Jing did not interrupt.
After a while, Bai Jing found Hu Bayi and the other two in the courtyard.
When Hu Bayi and the others saw Bai Jing return, they immediately said, "The blind old woman just said that the problem with the thrush can only be cured by obtaining the gall of a human bear."
They were waiting for Bai Jing and Sun Qiaoshan to arrive so they could go up the mountain together to hunt bears.
After a while, Sun Qiaoshan also came over.
Immediately, the group began discussing the plan to hunt bears up the mountain.
The bear-man that the blind old woman spoke of was not the same as the ordinary blind bear.
The so-called "human bear" is a size larger than a blind bear. According to Yanzi, a human bear can kill a cow with a single slap.
After hearing that bear bile could cure Huamei's illness, Sun Qiaoshan insisted on going to fight the bear, while Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi were also fearless.
And Yanzi insisted on going too.
In the end, Bai Jing had no choice but to go along with it.
However, Bai Jing was not worried at all, as the bear-man was just a person in disguise.
Let alone Bai Jing, even Hu Bayi and his group could easily subdue him.
Therefore, Bai Jing simply took the trip to the mountain to relax, which was fine.
Finally, after discussion, Yanzi stayed to take care of Huamei, while the rest of them started packing their things, preparing to get a good rest and recharge for the night.
Let's set off together to climb the mountain after it gets light tomorrow.
Bai Jing, Hu Bayi, and Fatty Wang immediately returned to their residence.
