Chapter 14 IOU

The next paragraph continued to be heard from the radio: "His Excellency Qianhu, who did not want to be named, said that this is likely to be a terrorist attack on important production facilities of the Empire. From 6 o'clock today, the San Francisco Police Department will set up checkpoints in the area of ​​Tianhou Temple Street to Kinmen Bridge. The police have publicly solicited clues from the city, hoping that the majority of Chinese people, nationals, naturalized people, and foreigners will actively report and expose them. If the clues are verified, the reporter will receive a huge bounty of 5,000 taels."

The sound from the radio woke Shangluo up. When he opened his eyes, he was lying on his workbench. The parts of the writing clock next to him were scattered in disarray, and a small copper hammer was still holding in his hand. Everything was the same as before, but it was a little different. The hammer itself seemed a little red, almost not like this before.

The music box is on the table, but it has been repaired as before.

"Huh? What's going on? I remember before??? No, why am I here? I'm not in the Acropolis?"

"Are you awake?" A familiar voice came from my ears, as if it was more real than before. "Hey, it's a pity. If it was a little later, I would have planned to call the police. Oh no, I'll go and report the gold. 5,000 taels, so I can buy a plane ticket and go directly to Nanjing."

"Then why don't you leave?"

"The deal between us has not been completed yet," Apollonia replied. "You have helped me so much, so I can't leave, right?"

"Ah, is it back to normal?"

"The interior is still a mess, but you at least blocked the gap and bandaged it for me. There is basically no problem with me, and the internal injuries can be repaired slowly - but compared to me, your current situation may not be very good."

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

Apollonia described the situation to him-

"The entire studio exploded?!"

"Yes. Not only the studio you are in, but the entire craftsman area was penetrated by the counterattack current. Every appliance was burned, from a pile of light bulbs that cost me a lot of money to an electric welding station that I don't know how much. The news said that the direct economic loss was as high as 2.7 million yuan."

Shangluo subconsciously looked out the window. It was afternoon outside, and everything outside was no different from every day in the past. But he also realized that his life might start from today on a path of no return. Is all this really worth it?

Worth it! For the foundation-building pill, everything is worth it.

"How about you divination? Just use that set of playing cards." Apollonia gave her opinion.

"No divination is required. I issued a work ticket. They must know that I did it, and maybe they will arrive soon!"

【Feel sorry.】

Apollonia returned to "broadcast mode", which seemed to be more serious.

[This is my fault. I didn't expect this to happen. I have prepared the formula for the Foundation Establishment Pill and can be given to you at any time. But I suggest you better transfer as soon as possible and run away!]

"Run away? I won't run away, but I really have to avoid the limelight. Cultivating immortals is against the will of heaven. It's too lively here... I have to find a place to refine elixirs, find a hidden place that will not be discovered by the Jinyiwei." He picked up the paper and pen, left a note, and prepared to leave.

"When I successfully build the foundation, I will definitely come back and pay back the money!"

[You are still thinking about paying back the money? I don’t know how long it will take for you to talk about it. There is a share of this 2.7 million yuan on my head. But I suggest you transfer it as soon as possible now, otherwise you can only refine alchemy in the imperial prison. The Jinyiwei is already on the way.]

With a loud "bang", the door opened and the door was pushed to the wall, and even the bell was stuck in the gap. Shangluo was startled, and the movement fell on the workbench and broke again.

"The Jinyiwei handles the case! Everyone should not move when they are in place!"

The Jinyiwei quickly occupied every corner of the watch shop, pointing at the air in the room. They pointed at wherever there was no one.

Every inch of the gap in the room was stared at by the eyes, without exception, and there were even three people pointing at the teapot at the same time. Everyone looked like they were facing a great enemy, as if there were "possible" of something terrible came out of the room at any time, especially the teapot.

"Where is the person?" Lu Huaiyang walked into the store, still wearing his flying fish suit.

"Reported to thousands of households, people are gone, but the phlogistin is still in a high concentration!"

Lu Huaiyang was illusioning around him, everything was as usual. There was a pot of boiling water on the stove.

He walked to the stove and reached out to close the fire.

"Let him take a step first. It seems that there is no mistake in the calculation. The crux of the problem lies with him. He hasn't run much farther, nor can he run much farther. The gap in phlogin cannot be filled. We can only follow the traces of phlogin to catch up."

"yes!"

"He needs to recover him quickly. He has no idea how dangerous he is touching. Clean up and restore it to its original state."

"Yes, Qianhu. Do you want to put a seal?"

"No." Lu Huaiyang waved his hand, "Print a notice of closing down and put it behind the window, lock the store door, and don't move anything else."

"Master!" Suddenly, Wen Yuan walked in quickly from outside, "Master, there is a new situation."

Putting it in Lu Huaiyang's ear, he quickly said a few words.

"What, can't I find Phosphimon?"

"Yes. The information clearly states that the magic machine has been leaking flammable steel after being injured, but now."

"We're a step slower." Lu Huaiyang's face darkened, "If we discovered it in time for the first time, we might be able to save his life. Now, he may be in danger. After being swept away by the magic machine, no one can come back. Wen Yuan, please call me and call me. Hum?"

Suddenly, he glanced at Shangluo's table, which seemed to be left with a note.

When he entered the door, there was no Jinyiwei watching there, because Shangluo, who lived here, was not an enemy at all, so no one paid attention to his seat first. It was not until just now that the note was seen by Lu Huaiyang.

He walked forward, picked up the note and glanced at it.

"IOU?'I, Shangluo, now owes the imperial court 2.7 million taels, so I will make a deposit hereby establishing it."

Lu Huaiyang read the IOU.

Lu Huaiyang was shocked: "It's really interesting to think about paying back the money at this time. But paying back the money is not my responsibility. What I want to investigate is the spiritual energy on you. Wen Yuan!"

"Here!" Wen Yuan, who was standing outside the door, jogging in all the way, took the note handed over by Lu Huaiyang.

"Master, has he run away?"

"Run, but not completely." Lu Huaiyang shook his head, "He has a waist card on him, do you know what to do?"

"Yes." Wen Yuan leaned over and stretched out her hands.

"Don't make a sound." After saying that, he took off the waist card on his waist. This time it was a jade card. The lightning at his fingertips appeared again, and this time it was also lost to the waist card: "Hold this, don't say much. Be careful that there are ears in the partition wall."

Wen Yuan took the sign, was stunned for a moment, and then nodded violently.

"Did you feel it? Very good." Lu Huaiyang patted his shoulder, "Where is the direction?"

“It’s right north and south?”

"East or west?"

"East."

"Then he should go toward Las Vegas now - that's right, he has that baby in his hand, and it's impossible not to go to Las Vegas. Wen Yuan, this matter is left to you. Drive to chase immediately, don't lose the sign."
