Chapter 250: Chapter 129: The Complicated Swindler Master! The Witch Immortal Reappears! (10,000-Word Mega Chapter, Please Subscribe)_3

You should know that his swindler master, who isn’t as simple as he appears, has only managed to accumulate a mere four thousand and some hundred taels of silver despite years of deceiving and tricking people in Qiulong County.

This thick stack of silver notes given by the Thousand Household Leader of the Qiantian Divine definitely adds up to more than four thousand taels.

Fan Wu estimated that there had to be at least six thousand taels of silver!

It seemed that Yun Jiuqing immediately realized Fan Wu’s confusion and explained, "That uncle from the Thousand Households told me this, he said that the Qiantian Divine found a lot of evidence in the Fu Clan mansion. That evidence pertained to some unsolved cases from before."

"The Qiantian Divine once announced rewards for clues to many unsolved cases because they couldn’t find any leads. But until now, no one has been able to claim those rewards."

"However, after you, Taoist Priest Fan, killed your way through the entire Fu Clan, many of the cases with rewards were resolved!"

Yun Jiuqing paused before continuing, "In essence, you, Taoist Priest Fan, have indirectly helped the Qiantian Divine to solve at least a hundred unsolved cases!"

"Therefore, the uncle from the Thousand Households thinks that the reward silver promised before now belongs to you, Taoist Priest Fan."

Yun Jiuqing’s explanation made everything clear to Fan Wu.

So that’s how it was...

My goodness!

So he had unwittingly helped the Qiantian Divine of the Great Zhou Dynasty in a major way again? Thankfully, this time it wasn’t in vain; at least the Prefecture’s Qiantian Divine would give him a few thousand taels of silver as a reward.

Even though a few thousand taels didn’t mean much to Fan Wu at present, it was still far better than not making a single copper coin.

"Alright." Fan Wu stuffed the silver notes into the bag that Old Blue Ox was carrying on his back.

And he said, "Then I shall accept it."

Yun Jiuqing was somewhat dumbfounded by such a casual act.

This was several thousand taels of silver!

And it was in the form of silver notes, which are easy to lose if one is not careful. Taoist Priest Fan was just nonchalantly stuffing them into a bag?

Wouldn’t it be heart-wrenching if they were lost?

Yun Jiuqing thought about it. Although she wasn’t particularly short on silver, the annual allowance from her family was only about two to three thousand taels. If she were to lose over six thousand at once, she reckoned she would be heartbroken and upset for several days.

"By the way, Taoist Priest Fan, what do you plan to do next? Are you going to return to Qiulong County, or..." Yun Jiuqing asked curiously.

Fan Wu replied, "Depends on luck."

"Huh?" Yun Jiuqing was puzzled.

Whether or not to return to Qiulong County... was it really a matter of luck?

What kind of reasoning was that?

She was utterly confused!

Fan Wu didn’t offer any further explanation; after all, encountering wandering Free Attribute Points really did depend on luck. If he was lucky, Fan Wu would linger in the area for a while; if not, he would go somewhere else to try his luck.

It was that simple!

...

The next day.

Early morning.

A cloudless sky always has a way of refreshing one’s mood, lifting the spirits of those feeling gloomy.

The storm over the surviving name of the Fu Clan was still brewing within the Nanjun Prefecture.

In a few days’ time, the news would likely spread throughout the entire Nanjun region of the Great Zhou Dynasty, with Nanjun Prefecture at the center.

After all, the Fu Clan had some level of business and renown throughout Nanjun.

Some people were even thinking about how to nibble away at the Fu Clan’s pie.

But all this had little to do with Fan Wu.

At the moment, a visitor arrived where he was staying -- someone he had met before.

The visitor was from the Qiantian Divine.

"Taoist Priest Fan, I am from the Nanjun Prefecture Government of the Qiantian Divine, a Hundred Households! You may have seen me at the Qiantian Divine before. My surname is Si Ma, and my given name is Song," Si Ma Hundred Households said with a tentative tone and a heart full of trepidation as he introduced himself to Fan Wu.

"Indeed, I’ve seen you before." Fan Wu certainly remembered this Si Ma Hundred Households. He remembered this fellow had followed him stealthily from the Qiantian Divine the day before last.

Si Ma Hundred Households had no idea; he thought he had hidden his tracks well the day he followed, but in reality...

Fan Wu had been aware of the three Qiantian Divine tails from the start.

It was just that Fan Wu hadn’t bothered with them at the time.

With a hint of nervousness, Si Ma Hundred Households continued in a very polite manner, "I have come here to find you, Taoist Priest Fan, because the leader of the Thousand Households sent me."

"Oh?" Fan Wu’s eyebrows raised. The Thousand Household Leader of the Qiantian Divine again?

Just yesterday the Thousand Household Leader had sent Yun Jiuqing with the silver note.

Today he had sent Si Ma Hundred Households to knock on his door?

Fan Wu asked, "What’s the matter?"

Si Ma Hundred Households replied without delay, "Here’s the thing! The leader told me that the Prefect had informed him that if the Qiantian Divine encountered any strange and mysterious matters, they could come to notify Taoist Priest Fan. This was at your request, so..."

Si Ma Hundred Households scratched his head, displaying none of the imposing image a Hundred Households of the Qiantian Divine should have. His demeanor looked as though he was a junior conversing with an elder.

He paused, then continued, "Thus, the leader of the Thousand Households sent me to notify you and to ask if you might be interested in getting involved in this matter?"

Fan Wu remembered that the first time he met Yun Shouji, he had made such a request.

He hadn’t expected Yun Shouji to really bring it up with the Thousand Household Leader of the Qiantian Divine, nor that the leader would actually take it to heart.

And now, the Thousand Household Leader had truly sent someone to remind him.
