Chapter 42 Tax on Rent Rice

A cold wind blew on Sanwen Mountain, blowing up pieces of dead leaves flying in the sky, and the meaning of killing filled the heavens and the earth.

Li Yifeng turned around, turned his back to Xu You, his sharp voice revealed powerless frustration, and said, "Weizhi, I can't cure your injury!" ”

Xu You sat down on the ground, rested for a while before recovering his strength, raised his sweat-stained forehead, and said with a smile: "The worst thing is to abolish martial arts, that's nothing, Brother Dao don't mind......"

The corners of Li Yifeng's lips moved slightly, and he wanted to speak and stopped, as if he had something to say, but he didn't know how to say it. After a while, he said: "My medical skills are not good, and I am not as good as my master." Weizhi, if it is possible, I hope you will go to Heming Mountain again, maybe there will be a way for the master there! ”

Xu You smiled bitterly: "Brother Dao, although I seem to be free, I have actually been imprisoned in the mountains and rivers of Qiantang. Sanwu took a little effort, borrowed the situation, and could barely protect himself, if he went to Heming Mountain for thousands of miles, I am afraid that he would be in the middle of the road, and he would already be in two places. ”

The emperor placed Xu You in Qiantang for protection, and from the emperor's point of view, he had done his best. If he dies by himself, he wants to leave this place and go all the way to Heming Mountain to find Li Changfeng to heal his injuries, it is conceivable that once the Shen family gets the news and sends someone to assassinate Yu Daozuo, it will really die in vain!

Li Yifeng said: "How can I not know? It's just that Shizun made a vow in front of the Heavenly Master half a year ago that he would not leave Heming Mountain within ten years, otherwise, with the friendship between you and me, no matter how difficult it is, I will ask Shizun to come to Qiantang to heal your wounds. But now there is only the next best thing, and it is up to you to climb the mountain to visit. ”

Li Changfeng vowed not to go down the mountain? Or in front of Heavenly Master Sun Guan?

Is it forced? Or is it voluntary?

Xu You obviously smelled the rotten smell of the power struggle within the Heavenly Master Dao, which was inevitable. Once any organization, group, political party, and state organ has developed to a certain extent and interests have arisen, contradictions in the distribution of interests will arise, and wars between vested interests and latecomers who are eyeing each other have never stopped!

Of course, Xu You would not be stupid enough to ask the detailed reason, he forgot all about it, frowned, and said: "Listening to Brother Dao, it seems that even if there is danger on the way, you have to go to Heming Mountain?" Could it be that my injury is imminent? ”

Li Yifeng shook his head and said, "It's not imminent, but it's in danger!" ”

Xu You was shocked, but his face was silent, and he said, "How come?" Wen Ruquan said that my injuries can be healed after a period of time, and the price I paid is nothing more than losing my martial arts and becoming a waste! ”

"It's true that Wen Ruquan is a holy hand, but he has a fatal flaw, that is, he doesn't know martial arts! It was a fluke that he was able to save Weizhi from the brink of life and death, but he couldn't really see the root of your injury! ”

Xu You remembered the strange and unpredictable cold true qi every time he exercised, his breath was suffocated, and he said, "Brother Dao, did you find something else?" ”

Li Yifeng pondered for a long time and sighed: "I can't say it well, your injury is very strange, familiar, but it is plausible, completely different from any lesion I have seen before." ”

Xu You was stunned, isn't this playing with me? You haven't diagnosed one, two, or three feelings, but you say it so scary.

Li Yifeng naturally guessed what Xu You was thinking, and said, "This is the intuition of a doctor!" Just like some people will be restless when danger comes, I have seen countless Taoists in the Heavenly Master Dao, and many times, the diagnosis of some strange diseases does not depend on the pulse, but on your intuition. ”

If you dare to say this in the hospital of later generations, you will definitely be beaten to death by an angry patient, and if you die, you will have to make the news, adding to the tense doctor-patient relationship.

Xu You didn't answer because he didn't know what to say. Since leaving Yixing, although his body is weak, his spirit is getting better day by day, and his behavior is no different from that of a normal person, as long as he doesn't have luck, he can even take a move from the Mountain Sect without getting hurt, and he is not tired of beating Dou Qi with a stick, just like eating Jin Ge, where is Li Yifeng's intuition so exaggerated?

Li Yifeng tried his best to persuade: "If you take it lightly, once it deteriorates, you are likely to worry about your life!" Therefore, it is best to take advantage of the fact that there is no seizure now, and immediately find the master for diagnosis and treatment, maybe there is still a glimmer of life!

Xu You said helplessly: "Brother Dao, instead of dying on the way to Heming Mountain, it is better to stay in Qiantang and live a good life." You also said that yes, maybe, then, maybe it won't get worse? ”

"Weizhi, do you want to put your life and death in the choice of 'maybe, maybe not'?" Li Yifeng said in a deep voice: "You are worried about changes on the way, this can be overcome." The crown prince and the Shen clan may not really have such vast supernatural powers, if necessary, I can use the power of the Heavenly Master Dao to cover your whereabouts all the way! ”

Xu You suddenly fell silent, stood up with the pavilion pillar, looked at the scenery of Qiantang City at the foot of the mountain, and said, "Brother Dao, thank you very much!" However, it is impossible for me to leave Qiantang, let alone leave Qiantang under the escort of the Heavenly Master Dao, if it is really fate, then there is nothing to be done! ”

Whether you really want to get out of the troubled waters of Qiantang for my injury, or you want to get me out of the troubled waters of Qiantang, I want to thank you!

Li Yifeng sighed and said, "Your temperament has never changed for so many years!" Well, it's up to you, just be careful, but if you feel unwell, be sure to seek medical attention as soon as possible! ”

Xu You smiled: "Thank you Brother Dao for your understanding!" ”

Li Yifeng sighed again and said, "Since you refuse to leave, then the Zhan family's affairs will not stand idly by?" ”

He is a ghost hunter, cold-faced and cold-hearted, and everyone is afraid in Yangzhou Zhili, but in front of Xu You, he sighed all the anger of ten years!

"Exactly! To save people to the end, you can't give up halfway! ”

Li Yifeng said: "If you want to save people, you have to know how to save them." After all, I am the ghost hunter of Yangzhou Zhi, and I have always been responsible for the contact with Zhan Ting, don't you have any doubts to ask? ”

Xu You went out to see Li Yifeng this time, firstly, to reminisce about the past, and secondly, to explore Du Jingzhi's reality and reality. Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can survive a hundred battles, although he has a way to get Zhan out of the death of the deer breast, but the final result depends on how determined Du Jingzhi is.

"If Brother Dao leaks the secrets of the Daomen, will it make Du Sai Jiu unhappy?"

"That's my business, don't worry!"

Li Yifeng's master is Li Changfeng, the great sacrificial wine, who is above Du Jingzhi, so he may not be so afraid of this top boss. Xu You knew that he was cautious and would not be caught by Du Jingzhi, and asked, "Why did Du Jingzhi get Zhan Wenjun?" ”

"The reason for this is only known to the sacrificial wine himself, but as far as I guess, it should be related to a Dao method he is cultivating."

Taoism?

Xu You seems to have captured something, whether it is the Heavenly Master Dao in the previous time and space, or the Heavenly Master Dao in this world, the foundation of being able to gain a foothold in Jiangdong and become the foundation of the First Great Sect is all kinds of strange or miraculous Dao methods. From the emperor's relatives to the peddlers' pawns, they all want to get what they want from the Taoism of the Heavenly Master, such as longevity, longevity, sickness, blessings, and so on. If Du Jingzhi really needed Zhan Wenjun because of his cultivation of the Dao Law, it sounded incredible, but it was actually not incomprehensible.

Because in the Dao of the Heavenly Master, there is a very famous and powerful one, called Aikijutsu!

Xu You said again: "Then Du Jingzhi's main purpose in dealing with the Zhan clan is for Zhan Wenjun?" ”

"No!" Li Yifeng shook his head unexpectedly and said, "Whether it is Zhan Wenjun or Guo Mian, in fact, they are all secondary, and the main purpose is for money!" ”

"Huh?"

Xu You opened his mouth wide and said, "Money? ”

He never thought that money was the main purpose of Du Jingzhi's big move. To say that the people in the Heavenly Master Dao have acted a lot of dirty, in the name of the water charm to cure diseases and eliminate disasters, I don't know how much wealth they have defrauded the Taoists, but they will not disregard their face and openly take it by force.

"Du Jingzhi is the sacrificial wine of Yangzhou Zhi, in the most prosperous place in the world, will he still be short of money?"

"It's not Yangzhou that is short of money, but Heming Mountain! The Celestial Master issued an edict that each ruler should pay a tax of varying amounts according to their own circumstances, which was three times higher than in previous years. Yangzhou is one of the three of the 24 governance, and it is also a tax of 50,000 yuan for renting rice. ”

The so-called rice rent tax refers to the fact that the Heavenly Master Dao was required to pay five buckets of rice when he first joined the religion, and later considering various factors such as economic development, inflation and food shortage, the same amount of cuckoo silk and silk can be used as a substitute, also known as the rice rent tax in consideration of various factors such as economic development, inflation and food shortage.

50,000 yuan......

After the Eastern Han Dynasty, the government rarely issued currency, and Cao Wei even scrapped five baht coins, so that the people traded in the grain and silk market. To the two Jin Dynasty, there was never a new currency, only the circulation of ancient money, and then to the Northern and Southern Dynasties, although there began to grow, issued more than 40 kinds of currency, but the issuance is not large, and the circulation is still the ancient money left by the previous dynasty.

In the more than 100 years after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, a total of 28 billion coins were issued, with an average of 250,000 yuan per year, which continued according to this ratio, and the ancient money in circulation by the time of Cao Wei was only 100 billion.

That is to say, there are only 100 billion ancient coins circulating between the north and south of Chu and Wei, although Sun Guan is a contemporary heavenly master of the Heavenly Master Dao, but in the final analysis, he is only the leader of a folk sect, and he will let a mere Yangzhou pay 500 million yuan in taxes, what kind of appetite is this, what kind of awesome?

Of course, 500 million yuan cannot be all currency, and a large part of it is still general equivalents such as grain.

Xu You was dumbfounded and said, "How can the Zhan family have so much money?" ”

Li Yifeng said in a low voice: "There are naturally not so many Zhan clans, but don't forget, there are seven pieces of deer breast of the divine deer!" ”

Nima!

Xu You didn't know what else could express his admiration for Du Jingzhi in his heart besides these two words at this time!
