The two people sitting on the bench, one old and one young, looked like either father and son or master and disciple. They were dressed in Taoist robes and carried a handful of dust in their aged hands.

The man behind the desk, who must have been the construction manager, got up and walked over to us when he saw me and Qing Qing. He smiled and said, "You two are the people from the Tomb of Clothes?"

This manager had a fat head and big ears. He had a big belly, so he didn't look like a smart person. "However, I soon understood. Isn't there an old man and a young Taoist sitting next to them?

It must be these two Daoists who heard me say the three words' Dressed up in Tombs' and thought that they were fellow Daoists or people who could help them greatly. That's why they got the gatekeeper to invite Qing Qing and me in.

I nodded to the manager. "Yes," I said.

The manager laughed out loud, his chubby face trembling. "Great! Two more apprentices have arrived! I don't have to worry about anything this time. Please take a seat, you two." After saying that, he pointed to another chair, indicating that Qing Qing and I should sit there.

Seeing Qing Qing and I sat down, the manager said, "The four of you are all great people, so I'll be straightforward. There was a sarcophagus dug out during the construction, and it was forcefully opened by the workers. It seems that something dirty was released, and I hope that the four of you will help out."

I waved my hand and said, "It's our duty to exterminate the Devil Dao. We don't need any compensation."

As soon as I finished speaking, the old Daoist stood up and glanced at me. He said, "That's not right. Taoists are also people and also need to eat and drink. If you don't have money, can you let cultivators drink?"

The old and young Taoists were very unfriendly towards Qing Qing and me. Furthermore, there was a look of disdain on their faces, which made me very angry. However, it was not good for me to argue with them since everyone had their own aspirations and I could not force my own thoughts onto others.

When the manager saw that the atmosphere had turned stiff, he tried to smooth things over, "It's all because of me. I was too impatient that I forgot to introduce the four of you. These two are Second Brother Huang and Third Brother Huang. They're both famous people within a hundred miles."

After introducing the old and young Taoist, the manager pointed at us and said, "These two are …"

"Oh, I'm Pear Tree Village's Little Tian, and beside me is my friend Qing Qing."

While I introduced myself, my heart was about to burst with laughter. What kind of seniority is this? It looks like it's either a father or master and disciple, but one of them is called Huang Lao Er and the other is called Huang Lao San, like two f * cking brothers.

Second Brother Huang stared at Qing Qing and me and said, "You two are not Taoists?"

"That's not it."

Second Brother Huang then looked at the manager and said, "Manager, it's best if you invite these two out. Not only are they unable to help here, we're also implicated by their presence."

"This …" The manager looked at me with a troubled expression.

I was truly angry. Originally, I respected them as Taoists, so I endured it in every possible way. However, I didn't expect them to keep pressing on me. I raised my eyebrows and said, "Aren't teachers supposed to have no culture? If he wasn't a general, wouldn't he know how to fight? "What makes you say that? It's all bullshit."

The manager took the opportunity to smooth things over, saying: "Calm down, you are both distinguished guests invited to this site, it is more important to get down to business first. I've already told you what happened just now, what should we do now that you've thought about it? "

Second Brother Huang stretched out his hand towards me and said: "This benefactor's words are too boastful. This Penniless Priest will let him go first."

I did not hesitate to say, "I think, from the point of view of the construction site, we should first arrange for the injured workers to be extremely family members so that they do not cause panic. Secondly, let's go to the sarcophagus and check if there are any clues that we missed. Finally, we can find the ghost and hold his hand. "

The manager nodded as he listened. After a while, he turned to Huang Ol'second and asked, "What about it according to what Fang Shi wants?"

Second Brother Huang coldly snorted and said, "This Penniless Priest isn't that complicated. I have dust in my hands, and my disciple has a broken plate. As long as I can lock onto the ghost's trail, this Penniless Priest can easily kill that evildoer."

"Don't tell me that they don't care about the injured laborers' families at all?"

"That's on the construction site. It has nothing to do with me."

"What a merciful and compassionate outsider. Don't you think it's a bit too heartless for you, Taoist Priest?"

Second Brother Huang looked at me in disdain and stopped arguing with me. He turned to the fat manager and said, "This Penniless Priest has already explained the solution. If there's no need, then we will take our leave."

"Please wait a moment." The fat manager stopped Huang Lao and Er's extreme disciple, smiling as he said, "I didn't say that I don't need you."

I pulled Qing Qing and immediately stood up. "Since that's the case, then we shall take our leave."

"Wait, the two of you can't leave either."

The fat manager stopped all four of us as he shook his chubby face and said, "The Eight Immortals still need to display their abilities after crossing the sea. The four of you are all experts, so how to subdue that ghost is all up to you. I'll represent the entire construction site."

Second Master and disciple of the Huang family thought for a moment, then snorted at me and walked out.

I also agree with the fat manager, whether it is me or Huang Lao Er, as long as we can reclaim the ghosts that are causing trouble here, it is enough for me. As for comparing their strengths and weaknesses, I'm really not interested in that.

In order to take care of second brother-in-law, the fat manager had even specially arranged for Qing Qing and I to live next door. I had a different view of this fat manager than before.

From the argument he just had between me and Huang Ol'second, it can be seen that the fat manager is a tactful and thoughtful person. No wonder he was able to sit as the manager of the construction site, he really does have some skills.

Coming to the capital's second brother-in-law's bed and chatting with him for a while before he got tired of it. I didn't dare to disturb him and let him rest for a while before bringing Qing Qing back to their temporary residence.

After returning to her room, Qingqing pondered for a moment and said, "Why do I feel like there's something wrong with those two Taoists? They don't seem to be as free and easy as Taoist Yuji or Taoist Yuji, but they always have a city feel about them."

Recalling the actions of Second Elder Huang and his disciples, I couldn't help but be taken aback. "Could it be that those two are scammers who swindled food and drinks?"

"I don't know about Qing Qing, but those two Taoists gave me a bad feeling."

I waved my hand and said, "It's fine. It doesn't matter if they're godly or not. Tomorrow, when we take action, we'll see who's the mule and who's the winner."
