Chapter XXXII

Just as Fat Boss was about to open the door and leave, a cold air suddenly gushed out from his neck. The Fat Boss was shocked. Turning his head to the side, he saw that the Crystal Sword's sword had already pierced through his neck.

"Boss, where are you going?"

"No …." "I'm not going anywhere. I'm just looking at the food and drinks. I plan to go to the tavern and get some more."

"I don't think there's a need for that. Hurry up and take out the gem. I'll be leaving after I get the gem."

"This... I was just about to tell you, young master, that those gems are still stored in the Exchange Hall, so I can't give them to you today. "How about this, tomorrow morning I will go to the Exchange to retrieve the gems, then give them to Young Master."

Leng Jun snorted and said: "Boss, you can only lie to little kids like that, do you really think you can lie to me? You have already retrieved the Crystal Sword, why would you put the gem on the exchange? "

"This …"

This regret in Fat Boss's heart, he was extremely vexed why did he take out this Crystal Sword. However, although he was vexed, he still had to hurriedly explain, "It's like this, the gem is more valuable, so I can be at ease on the exchange." Sigh … Young Master, what are you doing? "

Without waiting for Fat Boss to finish speaking, Leng Jun had already found a rope and wrapped it around Fat Boss's body a few times before tying him up.

Leng Jun then found a piece of rag and stuffed it into Fat Boss's mouth. Then, he very naturally placed the Crystal Sword into the white sword sheath that he carried with him.

Leng Jun patted the dust off his hands, and then said to Fat Boss: "I've been tricked by you once, I want to learn to be smarter no matter what. You said the gem isn't in the shop, so I'll have to look for it myself. If he really wasn't there, then there was nothing to say. "If you dare lie to me again, hmph, don't blame me for being rude to you."

With that, Leng Jun started to rummage through the Treasure Pavilion.

In fact, Leng Jun had already guessed that he had been deceived by the Fat Boss long ago. He had only come here this time to obtain some benefits from the Fat Boss to balance out the feeling of being deceived.

Thus, after pretending that he was rummaging for gems, he walked towards the place he saw last time, the place where the Fat Boss was taking out the money.

Leng Jun opened the money box and saw that there were probably only a few hundred thousand Deity Coin inside. It could be seen that Fat Boss did not place the money used to sell the gems in the shop. Leng Jun did not hold back, and directly kept all the money in his pocket.

After taking all the money, Leng Jun discovered another thing. It was a token. Judging from its material, it should be made of gold. Leng Jun had never seen this order badge before, but he was extremely familiar with it. This was because the shape of the order badge was almost identical to the one he had seen on the Beiyou Sect Golden Seal Stele in the Dongji Sect. The only difference was that what was printed on it was not the word "Northern Blessing", but rather, "Southern Blink".

When Leng Jun looked at the order badge, it was as if a gust of cold wind had passed through it.

He held the token in his hand and was in a daze for a while. When he regained his consciousness, he suddenly rushed in front of Fat Boss and asked sternly: "Speak, how did you get this badge?"

Fat Boss was also trembling in fear from Leng Jun's appearance, but he could only let out a "wu wu" sound in response to Leng Jun's question.

Only now did Leng Jun remember that Fat Boss's mouth was still stuffed with rags. Leng Jun removed the tattered cloth and continued to ask: "Speak, where did you get this token? Whether or not the blood case of Leng Village is related to you, if you don't call for me, I will cut out your fat body along with you. "

Fat Boss was so scared that cold sweat flowed down his body, and he anxiously said: "This was sold in my shop by a person a few days ago. I think it's made of gold, so I stayed. I don't know anything else. "

Leng Jun thought about it, and felt that the Fat Boss's words had a 90% chance of being trusted. After all, the Sect Master's Golden Seal was not ordinary. If Fat Boss knew of its true value, he would definitely not throw it away in the money box.

After thinking about it, Leng Jun asked again: "Then tell me, what kind of person was it that came to sell this order badge?"

Fat Boss was already frightened, hearing Leng Jun's words, he anxiously replied: "I remember, it was a woodcutter, I heard him say he picked it up while cutting firewood deep in the mountains."

"A woodcutter?"

Leng Jun said to himself, believing even more that the Fat Boss was not lying to him. The Leng Village was originally in the mountains, so it was natural for the axman to pick it up. Sky City was not far from the Leng Village, why would a woodcutter come all the way to Sky City to sell it after picking it up?

In the end, Leng Jun decided to go back to the Leng Village s to see if he could still find some clues.

After making his decision, Leng Jun once again covered Fat Boss's mouth with that piece of rag. Then he said to him, "I will go and investigate this. If I find out that you lied to me again, you know what the consequences will be.

With that, Leng Jun left the Sky Appraisal Pavilion.

He pitied Fat Boss because he did not have a wife, children, or even a shop assistant. He had been tied up in the shop for three days before he was discovered by a neighbor who had not opened the door for three days and wanted to see if he could get something cheap.

After being saved by someone, Fat Boss had lost a lot of weight. The first thing he said after he was saved was only the word "hungry". After this lesson, Fat Boss thought about how worldly things were, and when he might even die. Thus, he thought it through. Not only was he no longer mean to himself, he even married several wives in one go. Instead of staying in the shop, he bought a large and spacious house. The shop's business had been handed over to the shop assistant, who spent most of his time at home enjoying his rebirth after a calamity.

Of course, Fat Boss had also reported this to the officials, but other than the normal steel sword that Leng Jun left in the shop, there were no other clues.

After Leng Jun left Sky City, he went straight in the direction of the Leng Village. He came in the night, and in a few days, he arrived at his hometown.

Even after seven or eight years, there were still no changes to his Leng Village at all. The village that had been burnt down had already merged with the surrounding area. If one did not carefully inspect the village, one would not even be able to discover the traces of the fire that had been covered by the weeds.

Leng Jun looked around the village a few times, but he did not find any clues. There were indeed some footprints in the weeds. However, the footprints did not appear to be very dense. It was obvious that not many people had walked through them.

Seeing these footprints, Leng Jun determined that the Fat Boss was not lying to him. These footprints must have been left behind by a woodcutter. And the golden seal on the Nanqiao Sect was most likely picked up by the axman.

Since he could not find any clues, Leng Jun could only leave the Leng Village by himself after paying respects to his parents and his fellow villagers.
