Volume 2: Jade Promise Chapter 216: A Million Dollar Can't Buy an Ice Coffin
In addition to what happened in Feishi City, what is more important is that the seniors of Yisu Academy are now a little anxious.
Because there are only a few days left before setting off for the Star-Seeking Tower!
But all classes at Yisuli Academy have been suspended now. Who will help Tang Zheng and the others prepare?
Most of the students in Yisu Academy have already climbed the Sushiwenxing Tower, and of course they know how important it is to have this opportunity that only comes once in a lifetime.
However, when they returned to Yisuli Academy, they could not find Tang Zheng.
Not only Tang Zheng, but also Tang Xiaotang, Leng Zhan, Jiang Wuyan, and even Meng Fenghua and Xiao Lingdang were completely nowhere to be found.
Needless to say, Tang Zheng went back to Tianxia Minglu as soon as the blockade order of Yisu Academy was lifted.
"Master!" Daji jumped out wagging her tail as soon as she heard the voice, "Master, you're back! What do you want to eat tonight? I made some fresh rice wine, would you like to drink some? There are also osmanthus flowers..."
"Both. But let's talk about it later." Tang Zheng patted the little fox girl on the head, looked at Xu Qingyan and Ning Mo who came out, whitewashed their hands, and walked in together.
Ning Mo's face was covered in dust, he was wearing a dust-proof suit, and he had tools in his hands, and he looked like he was repairing a car...
Of course, there are no cars on Xingyao Continent, so he could only repair something else.
Before Tang Zheng opened his mouth to ask Ning Mo, Ning Mo spoke first: "Mr. Tang, I have already inquired about the ice coffin you want. As you said, many ice coffins of noble families have been kept for a long time and have not been used. However, it may not be easy to buy such a thing..."
"Well, you tell me first, who has them?" Tang Zheng motioned Xu Qingyan to sit down first and talk to him later.
"They are all... there are no 'anyone' left. Almost every family in the eighty-one aristocratic families has one. However, there are only five places that may have extra ice coffins: Purple Gold City, Heavenly Medicine Valley, Bailianfang, Yingshan, and Yaoshan Tribe. They haven't had any important people pass away for a long time. No... I'm not sure about Yaoshan Tribe. They rarely have the habit of leaving corpses behind. They don't even use ordinary coffins..."
Tang Zheng took a closer look at what Ning Mo meant.
In other words, what he wants can only be found in the five most detached forces on this continent?
But, here comes the problem...
"They are not short of money!" Ning Mo said directly.
Needless to say, the Purple Gold City is the high-end Wal-Mart of Xingyao Continent. The saying in the tavern, "Of the 100% of purple gold in the world, 99% is in the Du family," is enough to prove their financial strength. Tianyi Valley and Yingshan, one saves lives and the other kills people. These two professions will never be short of money, whether a thousand years ago or a thousand years later. Bailianfang and Yaoshan tribe are the most incomprehensible. Not only do they not lack money, but they also don't care much about money.
So, this is indeed a difficult matter.
"Ning Mo." Tang Zheng thought for a moment and asked, "Take my handwritten letter and go find a few people."
"Looking for someone?" Ning Mo didn't know how the topic suddenly jumped from buying an ice coffin to looking for someone.
Tang Zheng did not explain much and quickly wrote a few letters. Each letter was not very long. He just wrote who he was, who Ning Mo was, and waited for Ning Mo to tell the details. That was it.
However, when Ning Mo looked at the name on the envelope, his eyes widened.
Soon, Tang Zhengxian handed the first letter to Ning Mo: "Go to Yaoshan tribe and find a girl named Hua Yingxiu. Ask her if there is any way for us to jump the queue and buy an ice coffin. As I said , money is not a problem. We can pay with pure gold."
"Yes." Ning Mo quickly took the first letter.
"If she is really in trouble, don't say anything. Go to Bailianfang to find Lu Huang and see if he can think of a solution. Tell him that I can exchange a patent...ah, a new technology with him."
"Hmm...hmm!" Ning Mo wrote it down again.
"If Lu Huang is in a difficult situation, then you can take this letter and go to Yingshan... No, forget it." Tang Zheng was about to hand the third letter to Ning Mo, but took it back, "I still owe them a debt, so don't go." He handed the fourth letter to Ning Mo, "Take this last one to the Purple Gold City."
"Who are you looking for?" Ning Mo was a little stunned.
"Looking for... No, I don't know his name!" Tang Zheng patted his head.
“……”Ning Mo’s expression was very rich.
"Looking for Xier! No, no, no, it's Xiye." Tang Zheng was recalling the name of the owner of the famous house in the world that he had demolished, and introduced himself.
"I found Grandpa Xi, what should I say to him?"
"It's not Grandpa Xi, it's Master Xi. Well. Just say that Tang Zheng wants to do something very... tasteful? Well, something very tasteful!" Tang Zheng thought about Master Xi's catchphrase for a long time, and then said it affirmatively.
Ning Mo looked at Tang Zheng, completely speechless.
The ones before were all normal, but this last person...what the hell is wrong!
"If it's convenient, let's pack up and set off now. Although Instructor Li was a four-star warrior when he was alive, I don't know how long his body can be kept fresh." Tang Zhengdao.
"I don't have anything to pack." Ning Mo has been a scout for so long that he has long been accustomed to being able to set off at any time. He doesn't need to spend a long time packing his luggage. He can just leave as soon as he receives the mission.
"Oh, wait a minute..." Tang Zheng called him again.
"Anything else you want me to do?"
"Ride my snowy warhorse. And why are you so dirty?"
"I'm improving the little bee." Ning Mo stood where he was and answered, "There's still one last thing left. I should be able to transform the eavesdropping device placed in someone else's room into one that can store the sound for a period of time. However, the star power fluctuations are too large when it is activated, so this problem has not been solved yet."
Tang Zheng's eyelids twitched: "Okay, I'll go take a look later."
Ning Mo bowed his head, took Tang Zheng's letter, turned around and went out to get the Snow Region Warhorse.
Xu Qingyan watched Ning Mo leave before he spoke: "What do you want to do by sending him all over the continent?"
Tang Zheng smiled: "Who said I ordered him around? I clearly asked him to do something that meant a lot to me!"
Xu Qingyan shrugged and stopped talking.
He was too lazy to argue. If Tang Zheng said it was not, then it was not. As long as he thought it was, that was enough.
From the moment Tang Zheng came in, it was Ning Mo himself who brought up the matter of the ice coffin. Everything Tang Zheng did was very logical and Ning Mo didn't even realize that Tang Zheng was making him run all over the continent.
However, Xu Qingyan, who had been watching from the sidelines, saw it easily.
Tang Zhenggang finished denying it, but then continued: "Qingyan, now I need the relationship between Lu Tianji and Lu Wantang. You come with me to a place... But that place is Ning Mo's sad place, he must not go there."
Xu Qingyan didn't ask where it was, nor did he ask to find out the relationship between Lu Tianji and his son, and what happened to Guan Ningmo. He just asked, "How do we get there?"
Tang Zheng's Snow Warhorse was lent to Ning Mo, so what Xu Qingyan meant by asking was whether to change the horse or take a carriage.
As a result, Tang Zheng answered calmly: "Of course...pick the lock and climb in!"
