Chapter 200: Rewards for Worship, I Want to Enjoy the Incense of All People

"It's worthy of being the prefectural capital."

Looking at the busy scene in front of him, Lu Qing couldn't help sighing again.

Compared with the county town, this place is more than ten times more prosperous.

After sighing for a while, Lu Qing began to stroll around.

Of course, he strolled around for a purpose.

Soon, after spending a little money and patronizing a few small vendors.

He got the news he wanted.

"You mean the Zheng Mansion, it's just in the west of the city. The mansions of the largest families in the prefectural city are all there.

Young man, are you also going to pay tribute to the second son of the Zheng family and get the reward money?"

A vendor selling candied haws answered Lu Qing's questions very enthusiastically after he bought two strings of candied haws.

"Condolences?" Lu Qing pretended to be ignorant, "No, I just heard that the Zheng family is the largest family in the state capital, and I want to see it."

"So, you are also a martial artist?" The peddler suddenly realized, "But you came at the wrong time. The second son of the Zheng family was killed by a villain a few days ago. Now they are holding a funeral, and I am afraid they don't have time to entertain you.

But if you are going to pay your respects, you should be able to go in.

The funeral of the second son of the Zheng family was very grand. The Zheng family said that the citizens of the entire state capital city, as long as they go to pay their respects and pray for the second son of the Zheng family, can get a reward of 100 coins.

I went there yesterday, kowtowed to the second son of the Zheng family, and I really got the reward."

"It's such a good thing, then I will also pay my respects."

Looking at the peddler who looked like he had made a big profit, Lu Qing also said "surprised".

After leaving the stall, Lu Qing's face became calm, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

"Let the people pray for him, is that scum worthy?"

Following the instructions of the candied haws vendor, Lu Qing soon came to the west of the city.

As soon as he arrived here, he found something different.

Compared with other lively areas, the west of the city seemed much quieter.

But at the same time, the buildings were also much more majestic.

They were basically huge houses covering a very large area, and it was obvious that only the real wealthy families could afford to live there.

Lu Qing took a few glances and quickly determined the location of Zheng's mansion from the largest houses.

Because only that house was surrounded by white silk and bursts of mourning music came out.

Lu Qing slowly approached the house, and met many ordinary people on the way, walking from the direction of Zheng's mansion, with a hint of joy on their faces.

Obviously, they were the citizens who went to Zheng's mansion to worship and ask for reward money as the candied haws vendor said.

As he walked, he observed the surrounding environment.

Finally, he looked at a towering tower in the city several times.

"Stop, what are you doing?"

When he walked to the gate of Zheng Mansion, a guard stopped Lu Qing.

"My name is Lin An, I am from Jizhou, and I came to Cangzhou to travel. I heard that the second son of the Zheng family was killed by a villain, and I felt sad. I want to go in to pay my respects. May I ask if it's okay?"

Lu Qing made up an identity for himself.

"So it's Young Master Lin. Since you are here to pay your respects to the second son, then of course you can. Please come in."

The two looked Lu Qing up and down and saw that although he looked ordinary, he did have the fluctuation of Qi and blood power on his body, at least he had perfect Qi and blood cultivation.

So they didn't doubt him and immediately said politely.

Because such things have happened many times.

After all, the Zheng family is a big family, and they are famous throughout Cangzhou.

Every day, there are so many people who want to join them.

In the past, a low-level Qi and Blood Realm warrior like Lu Qing would naturally not be able to enter the Zheng Mansion.

But the mansion was holding the funeral of the second son these days, and the ancestor had ordered that no matter who came to pay tribute, no one should be stopped.

She wanted her Yu'er to enjoy the worship of the people, enjoy the incense, accumulate Yin De, and enjoy the glory in the underworld.

The Zheng family naturally did not dare to disobey the decision of the ancestor.

In order to fulfill the ancestor's wish, they even used money to guide the citizens in the city to pay tribute.

In this way, Lu Qing entered the Zheng Mansion smoothly.

He followed the guidance of the servants of the Zheng Mansion and came to the mourning hall.

At this time, there were many people queuing in the mourning hall to pay tribute. Judging from their clothes, most of them should be residents of the city who came for the reward money.

Before it was his turn, Lu Qing began to look at the situation in the mourning hall calmly.

The most eye-catching thing in the mourning hall is the huge coffin placed in the middle.

I don’t know what kind of wood it is made of, but it is inlaid with gold and jade, which is very luxurious.

Obviously, the Zheng family wants Zheng Yu to be able to enjoy wealth and luxury in the underworld.

There are several powerful auras lurking around the coffin, which are obviously the guards arranged by the Zheng family to protect the coffin.

However, Lu Qing didn’t care about these. What really concerned him was the figure sitting next to the coffin.

It was an old man, with a face as wrinkled as tree bark, sitting there with a wooden face.

She looked frail, but Lu Qing could sense a sense of strength from her.

"This should be the old woman, right?"

Lu Qing quietly activated his supernatural power and observed secretly.

Soon, a faint golden light of supernatural power emerged from the old woman, and several notes floated out at the same time.

After reading the notes silently, Lu Qing lowered his eyelids and stopped looking at the other party.

The sense of the innate realm strongman was still very sharp. Even if he restrained his breath, if he looked at the other party for too long, he would still be easily discovered.

However, he lowered his head and thought of the words in the notes just now. Lu Qing couldn't help but show a chill in his eyes.

This old woman really couldn't calm his anger unless he killed her.

"City Lord's Mansion, General Manager Wang is here!"

Just as Lu Qing was waiting, a shout suddenly sounded.

Not only did the worshipping crowd stir, but even the old woman who had been sitting woodenly also moved her face slightly, raised her head, and showed a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Soon, a middle-aged man with a square face, dressed in simple cloth and upright posture, came in and bowed to the old woman.

This time, the old woman did not continue to sit upright, but stood up, bowed slightly, and returned the greeting.

"Old lady Zheng, Wang is here on behalf of the City Lord's Mansion to pay tribute to the second son of Zheng." The middle-aged man with a square face said in a deep voice.

"The City Lord is thoughtful, and I will remember this friendship in my heart."

The old woman said lightly.

Soon someone offered incense and candles, and the middle-aged man with a square face worshipped and inserted the incense and candles.

He came to the old woman again, bowed and said: "Old lady Zheng, the city lord has a few more words for you. May I move over and say them?"

The old woman looked at the other person quietly for a few breaths, and finally nodded: "Please follow me, Wang."

"Good opportunity!"

Seeing the old woman and the square-faced middle-aged man leave the mourning hall, Lu Qing's heart moved slightly, and he also walked out quietly.

He came here just to confirm the strength and status of the old woman of the Zheng family, but he didn't really want to mourn Zheng Yu, the scum.

After leaving the mourning hall, Lu Qing walked out of the Zheng Mansion openly.

The guards at the gate saw him coming out and did not stop him.

In their opinion, a little warrior like Lu Qing had the opportunity to enter the mansion to worship the second son and leave a little impression in the heart of the ancestor, and he was grateful.

How could he have thought that this guy just took a circle in the mourning hall and slipped out.

After leaving Zheng's house, Lu Qing did not stop, and came to the tower he had seen before.

This tower should be a landscape in the prefecture city.

At this time, the tower was closed and the door was locked. There was no one in the tower and no one could enter it.

But how could this stump Lu Qing? He just moved his feet slightly, jumped a few times, and easily reached the top of the tower.

"This place is really unique and the location is also very good."

Standing on the top of the tower dozens of meters high, Lu Qing felt that the entire western area of ​​the city was almost visible.

More importantly, by chance, this tower was facing Zheng's house hundreds of meters away.

After appreciating the beautiful scenery on the tower for a while, Lu Qing looked at Zheng's house with a cold look.

His mind moved slightly, and a longbow appeared in his hand.
