Chapter 267 Missing?
After approximately half an hour, in front of a small weapon shop in the northern part of the city, Tang Huan looked at the tightly shut door and could not help but be dumbstruck.
The old fatty was not in the shop?
That day, when they were returning to the Furious Waves City from the Crescent City, Tang Huan had specially pa.s.sed by the entrance of the weapon store, wanting to see the old fatty. In the end, that night, the weapon shop"s main entrance was closed, so Tang Huan did not pay too much attention to it. When the old fatty went out to do some work, it was normal for him to not be home for a couple of days.
But today, the weapon shop was still not opened, which surprised Tang Huan greatly.
"Brother Tang Huan, you"re looking for the owner of this weapon shop?" Seeing Tang Huan"s expression, Tang Xiong started laughing, "These days, I have sent people to scout the situation around here everyday, but I have never seen this weapon shop open before. That boss must have gone far away."
"Not even one day has pa.s.sed in these ten days?" Tang Huan was startled.
"That"s right." Tang Xiong nodded his head.
"Strange, where did the old fatty run off to?"
Tang Huan muttered, puzzled.
When Tang Xiong saw this, he beckoned for a young man in armor to come over and quietly instruct him. The young man quickly ran to the shop next door. Not long later, he ran over: "General, Master Tang Huan, this weapon shop has been closed since a month ago. The owner said that he went to the Heavenly Forging City."
"Heavenly Forging City? Do you know when he will return? "
"I don"t know."
"..."
Tang Huan was a little disappointed. He had originally wanted to find him to find Old Fatty and ask him about his mother"s situation. Since he had already gone to the Heavenly Forging City, he could only wait until after he returned. In a blink of an eye, Tang Huan had already calmed himself down, "General Tang, let"s go."
… ….
A hundred meters away, in a four story high building, a fat figure moved away from the window and sat down, causing the chair to continuously groan.
This was a plump old man, but he looked as if he had just recovered from a serious illness. His face was pale, his eyes sunken, and he looked listless.
"We can"t let this brat see what Grandpa Fatty is like right now."
The Fat Old Man"s eyes were squinted like a needle hole, he muttered, the fat on his face was trembling, he then grabbed the half chewed pig leg on the table in front of him and fiercely took a bite, "F * ck, just to scare them, it took half its life. Fortunately, the old bird and the d.a.m.n thing did not dare to attack, otherwise, my life would have ended there. "
"Old Man Ou was the same as well. He hasn"t returned for so long, is he done for? F * ck, let"s not talk about that anymore. I"ll eat my fill first! "
"..."
… ….
When Tang Huan returned to the blacksmith shop, the sky had already turned dark.
•
Three million gold coins had become a large bag of high-grade gems. Other than the gems, Tang Huan also brought back some sacrifices, because tomorrow would be the day of his mother"s death.
"Yiya!"
In the room, once the bag was opened, Xiao Budian shouted in joy and stuck his head into the pile of gems.
Immediately after, its two small claws began to move, and the two gems were stuffed into its mouth. The crunching sounds of chewing rose one after another.
Not long later, fragments of the gem sprayed out.
After a while, Xiao Budian felt that it was not enough, he suddenly jumped out of the bag, his body quickly expanding, his two front claws grabbing the bag and pouring everything down into his mouth. In the next moment, even louder chewing sounds came out from Xiao Budian"s mouth.
Looking at Xiao Budian gobbling up the food, Tang Huan and the little girl who were not far away were dumbfounded.
"Pfft!"
In less than a dozen breaths of time, Xiao Budian opened his mouth, and a large amount of precious stone fragments fell into the cloth bag that was previously used to store the precious stones.
"Eh — —" Xiao Budian"s body suddenly shrank, and in a moment, he was back to how he was before. When it put down the bag and sat down, its two little claws stroked its bulging belly. It couldn"t help but burp with a contented and satisfied expression on its face.
"Xiao Budian, dozens of high level gems, you"re eating them just like that?"
Tang Huan regained his senses, looked at Xiao Budian who had such an expression on his face, and was unsure of whether he should laugh or cry. He also knew that dozens of gems wouldn"t last for more than a few days, even if he ate them sparingly. But now, he realized that he had underestimated this little fellow. With so many gems, it had eaten them all in one bite.
"Yiya!" Xiao Budian squinted his eyes, with a face full of enjoyment.
"Tang Huan, this little scoundrel is really too much."
The little girl put her hands on her hips, puffed her cheeks and glared at Xiao Budian.
She, who had just woken up, was extremely furious. f.u.c.k, this old lady needed to eat dozens of high grade gems that were worth three million gold coins each for so many days, but this little scoundrel actually killed it with a single bite. There was no justice in this world, especially with Xiao Budian"s satisfied expression, it made her extremely mad, wis.h.i.+ng that she could jump and stomp on its round belly.
Not only did she think this way, she even did it.
Very quickly, the room started to bang with the sound of the two little fellows fighting. Tang Huan felt like his head was about to explode. Taking a big step forward, he grabbed Xiao Budian"s fleshy wings with one hand and the little girl"s arm with the other, forcefully pulling the two apart.
"Little girl, take it."
Tang Huan directly stuffed a "Phoenix feather" into the little girl"s mouth. This was already the third "Phoenix Feather" Tang Huan had provided her. Earlier, when he had finished forging that enormous sword for Gu Ying, the remaining little "Phoenix Flame Essence s" had also entered into the little girl"s stomach.
Although the value of the little girl"s food wasn"t as much as Xiao Budian"s, its value wasn"t any less than the gemstones that Xiao Budian was eating.
"Wuuu..." "Feng Yu …"
The little girl struggled for a few moments before realizing what it was that was stuffed into her mouth. Her eyes immediately surged with wild joy and she slipped onto Tang Huan"s bed, hugged onto the phoenix feathers with both hands and sucked on them with gusto, completely throwing Xiao Budian behind her.
"Xiao Budian, this bag of high-grade gems is for you to eat for ten days. Now that you have eaten it all in one go, you will not have any more gems in the next ten days."
Tang Huan looked at Xiao Budian again in the blink of an eye. Hearing Tang Huan"s words, the little guy was instantly dumbfounded, and immediately protested with a "yiyaya" and "yiyaya" sound.
Seeing Tang Huan meditating on his own bed and ignoring himself, Xiao Budian rolled her eyes and jumped into Tang Huan"s embrace again. She twisted her pet.i.te body and started acting coquettishly, licking Tang Huan"s face with her scarlet tongue.
"A "Phoenix Stone" …"
Tang Huan had no choice but to compromise.
When Xiao Budian heard it, he immediately jumped off the bed in excitement. As he wiggled his b.u.t.t happily on the bed, he glanced at the little girl complacently.
Seeing him like this, Tang Huan could not help but laugh.
But after a few breaths of time, his expression changed slightly, and in a flash of mind instructs (in a second), a "Profound Yin Soul Baleful Pearl" appeared in his palm …
