Chapter 39 Delivering Treasure in the Dead of Night
Within moments, a large pool of blood seeped from beneath Zhou Feng, and he completely lost his life.
Yang Song sneered. Why not be a decent person and instead try to scheme against him? Isn't that just courting death?
Just as he bent down to take out the silver notes from Zhou Feng's arms, a golden light suddenly shot out from the man's arms and headed straight for his throat.
Yang Song was startled.
In the face of life and death, all his strength suddenly surged into his arm, and he grabbed the golden light with lightning speed.
The moment I touched it, a piercing pain shot through my finger, and blood gushed out.
Yang Song looked down and saw that the golden light was actually a golden rat!
"court death!"
Without hesitation, Yang Song clenched his fists tightly.
The sound of bones cracking rang out immediately, and the golden rat squeaked once more before falling silent.
Owning a treasure-hunting mouse is like having countless opportunities.
But you treat this clever rat, which could drive countless people crazy, with utter contempt, completely disregarding it.
Thousands of treasures?
It's just dust and mud!
[Reward: Ten days of cultivation points]
"????"
Yang Song looked down at the rat slices in his hand and was stunned for a moment.
Is this little gadget really that powerful?
"never mind."
He has a system with him, why would he need a treasure-hunting rat?
The system is his treasure-hunting mouse!
Even if the treasure-hunting mouse has a keen nose, can it be more sensitive than yours?
With your abilities, you could find countless rare treasures; why rely on a mere mouse?
[Reward: Ten days of cultivation points]
"...Alright then."
Yang Song smirked and tossed the treasure-hunting rat onto Zhou Feng.
Afterwards, they searched the man's body and retrieved all the silver notes, as well as several ingots of silver.
Not only that, he also saw Zhou Feng's left-behind package on the table, bulging and he didn't know what was inside.
"Let's dispose of the body first."
Yang Song took out a small package from his pocket, untied it, and took out a white porcelain bottle from it.
As the corpse-dissolving water was poured down, Zhou Feng's flesh and blood began to decay and dissolve at an alarming rate, even his bones sizzled and turned to ashes.
"What a potent poison!"
Yang Song's pupils contracted slightly, and a look of amazement appeared on his face.
He then did the same thing, placing the bodies of Fang Zheng and his sister on the ground and pouring a bottle of dissolving liquid on each of them.
You didn't want to see Fang Zheng and his sister's graves dug up and their corpses mutilated anymore, so you transformed them into a wisp of serene energy.
Now their physical bodies have merged with this blessed land, living as long as heaven and earth, shining as brightly as the sun and moon, and will no longer be bound by the years.
If they could know this in the afterlife, how could they not laugh in their graves?
[Reward: Eight days of cultivation points]
Still laughing?
"That should make you very happy."
Yang Song smiled, went outside to find a broom, and scooped a ladle of water from the vat.
They swept and splashed water at the same time, and soon the main room was clean.
After finishing these tasks, he walked to the table and opened the package left behind by Zhou Feng.
The package was filled with all sorts of odds and ends: an antique jade piece with a simple and rustic design, several pieces of minerals of different colors, a rusty bronze sword, a wooden board engraved with martial arts moves...
Yang Song picked up the wooden board. Although the moves carved on it were clearly visible, they were incomplete. Only two moves could be seen, and it was unclear what kind of martial art they were.
With your understanding of martial arts, you were able to tell from a single glance that the coffin lid was engraved with a movement technique.
Although your movement technique is incomplete, how could that possibly stump you?
After you've mentally rehearsed it thousands of times, the complete movement technique is now displayed before your eyes.
"The Thousand-Mile Thunder Leg Technique," a top-tier movement technique—Zhou Feng has truly given you a great gift!
[Reward: Return to Simplicity of the Thousand-Mile Thunder Leg Technique]
In an instant, countless insights and experiences filled Yang Song's mind.
He channeled all his strength into his legs and shot out like an arrow, leaving a trail of afterimages in the air, arriving at the courtyard gate in the blink of an eye.
It was moving so fast that the surrounding air whistled.
"As expected of the Thousand-Mile Thunder Leg Technique."
Yang Song was filled with excitement. With this movement technique, his strength had increased significantly.
"Zhou Feng is a good person, I misunderstood him."
Yang Song moved again, instantly returning to the main room, causing the tables and chairs inside to shake slightly and the lamplight to flicker.
"Could there be anything good among the rest?"
Yang Song picked up the rusty bronze sword, which still smelled of earth.
He frowned, guessing that the sword had been dug out of a grave.
Since the treasure-hunting rat thinks it's a good thing, it means that the materials used to forge the bronze sword are extraordinary.
"And these ores are probably good materials for forging weapons. Let Li Fu take a look at them tomorrow."
Yang Song shifted his gaze from the ore to the ancient jade.
This ancient jade artifact is a dragon-shaped piece carved from white jade. The dragon's body is winding and coiled, its whiskers are flowing, and its scales are clearly defined. Every detail is carved to life.
Under the dim light, the ancient jade faintly shimmered with a soft, ethereal glow, as if a spiritual energy flowed within it.
"This thing seems unusual. Could it be the key to some treasure vault?"
As you patrol the streets, you hear countless legends about mysterious treasure troves from storytellers.
Those treasure troves are either hidden in deep mountains and valleys or buried in the vast sea, containing ancient divine weapons, rare treasures, elixirs, and unique skills that can make people ascend to the heavens in one step.
It is said that only those who possess a specific key can unlock that long-sealed treasure.
The ancient jade in your hand is the key to a treasure trove, but it lacks a matching phoenix-shaped jade ornament.
[Reward: Six days of cultivation points]
"So, where can we find it? And whose treasure trove was this?"
You learned from the storyteller that Yan Shui Rou, a true disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect, possesses a phoenix-shaped jade artifact that can open the Holy King's Treasury.
This woman has found the entrance to the Holy King's Treasury, but after searching the entire Tianyuan Prefecture, she has not found a matching dragon-shaped jade artifact.
Now that the other half of the key is in your hands, any attempt by this woman to seize your treasure trove is pure fantasy!
[Reward: Six days of cultivation points]
It must be said that Yang Song really did have this memory in his mind; it was probably something his predecessor heard from a storyteller while patrolling the streets.
"With my current strength, the Holy King's Treasury is too far out of my reach."
"I can only wait until my strength has improved further and I've become a true disciple of a sect."
Yang Song stroked the ancient jade a few times with his hands, feeling an indescribable warmth and smoothness.
"Zhou Feng has given me so many good things; he's such a good person!"
Yang Song was deeply moved, but at the same time felt extremely regretful.
He shouldn't have mocked Zhou Feng for overestimating himself. This man had given him many precious items with a sincere heart, yet he...
"Why not be a decent person and instead try to take advantage of me? Isn't that just asking for trouble?"
Recalling his own sharp and sarcastic words, Yang Song's cheeks flushed, and a wave of shame washed over him.
