If Rocha wants to run away, he must first leave all the burdens behind. But the burden is like the fat on the body, it is not something you can throw if you want to.

But now is the opportunity. Shu Hui chose to keep silent in order not to disrupt Ao Yan's plan after being stolen, which gave Luo Cha and other backbone members of the Turtle Worship Sect a wrong signal, and directly let them interpret it as Shu Hui was a thief. To be precise, both the Turtle Worship Sect and the White Tiger Hall think that Ao Guang is the master of Shu Hui and his party, so Ao Guang is a thief.

So since everyone is mixed up on the road, and they don't meet in half, it's impossible to say, right?

Richard told his speculation with great certainty, and fabricated some non-existent gossip to convince the rabble who had gathered together because of greed and fear of death.

They didn't consider that their own handles might also be held in each other's hands, but they were too jealous of the two baoqins, and they quickly reached a consensus with a small abacus: to ask Ao Guang out, negotiate, and threaten him to hand over one of the baoqins.

In the estimation of the two Baoqins in the Turtle Worship Sect, the value of the gems alone was twice as much as the five hundred taels that the fat chicken of the White Tiger Hall said by the dog consumption. In other words, the gems and jade on a piece of the harp are worth at least five hundred taels of silver.

According to the market in recent years, 500 taels of silver can even buy more than 200 little maids, 10,000 stone japonica rice, 2,500 horses of cooked silk or more than 20 acres of fertile land - although 500 taels of silver weighs only 30 catties, but the cash in the entire Turtle Worship Sect is less than 500 taels, of which even less than 90 taels are cash silver, and the rest are cumbersome copper coins, and 500 taels of money weigh more than 3,000 catties.

Now the more than 3,000 catties of Kaiyuan heavy treasure is inlaid on a piece of wood, cut off a woman's purse can be loaded, sewn into the pig's bladder and stuffed into the chrysanthemum, where you want to go, who is not red-eyed?

Luo Cha's plan this time was very "thorough", and in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, almost all the core members who could freely enter and leave the White Lotus Temple were assigned tasks, and they couldn't ask for this.

After all, everyone is afraid that the person who goes to complete the task will get the gem and run away. Everyone is hob meat, or they are registered monks, one person eats enough and the whole family is not hungry, they ask themselves if they want to run properly. Now that everyone is involved, there is no longer a dispute over who is going to negotiate with each other.

"It's set for tonight. We have too many monks here, and it is inconvenient to go to other places, so let them go to the Wenchang Temple of Sun Lao Dao. Luo Cha saw that these subordinates who wanted money and didn't want their lives were gearing up, and smiled slightly, everything was under his control: "I will send someone to deliver the letter later, and nominally say that we will discuss how to redeem our people." ”

Everyone else agreed, but Sun Laodao didn't do it. There must be many risks involved in doing so, and he, Sun Lao Dao, who took out his nest to entertain guests, undoubtedly took the biggest risk - but why?

"This thing is too big, I'm afraid it's not very good to put a certain place for my grandson? In case of an accident, the soles of your feet are smeared with oil, and my Sun can run the Taoist priest, can he still run the temple? Sun Daochang snorted coldly: "Hmph, and my Wenchang Temple is not full of people in the sect." ”

Luo Cha didn't speak, and the right envoy of the Guardian Sect, who was also the abbot of the White Lotus Temple, took off his monk's hat and scratched his head, and the newly grown hair stubble was pressed to the scalp and it was a little itchy. After tickling the itch, he blew the monk's hat again, and said nonchalantly: "Old Sun, don't be so stingy, they don't dare to report to the official, what can they do with you?" ”

Wu Laodao, who looked sick and had yellow skin, also slowly persuaded at this time: "The other party didn't dare to report to the official, but we also broke a lot of manpower last night, so we can't be careless." Lord Sun Xiang's territory is closest to the city gate, and we have many ways to retreat. As for the little Taoist priest in your temple, you feed some of my refining in the food at night, and you can't wake up for ten hours......"

Sun Daochang's mouth snorted a few times, his momentum eased slightly, but his tone was still hard: "How many people are on the other side, what if they don't come?" It is also said that the young owners of Shifang Lou are blind, why don't they report to the official? ”

Sect Leader Luo Cha finally threw out the last bait and reassurance: "Don't worry, there is a deacon who has reported that they only have this family of three in Shifang Building, and they didn't go out at all last night." It may be that Lord Qin Xiang received some rumors that they took Liushun's family away in advance and hid. As for the young owner of Shifanglou, Xu bought some stolen goods from them, so he didn't dare to say anything. ”

"Sun Laodao has made the greatest contribution, and when the gem is in hand, you can give priority to choosing one. If you can't be invited, we'll come to the door at night! They didn't dare to report to the official, so they could only obediently tie their hands and arrest them, and then it would be as simple as more than a piano......"

Some of the people in the hall were not surprised because they had apparently learned of the deacon's return. It's just that after hearing "it's not as simple as a piano", he smiled greedily and hideously with the others.

The disappearance of Lord Qin Xiang and his entourage is a big stone that presses on everyone's hearts. However, there is no trace of a fight in the Liushun family, and to say that the Lord Qin Xiang and the four Dharma Protectors left by themselves and hid to avoid the limelight, it is obviously the result that this group of scared Mi Sans is more willing to believe in their hearts.

……

Hu Ba felt as if he had been favored by God. First of all, the distinguished guest who was assigned by the supervisor to the Tianzi room a few days ago to replace his companion was the commander of the man, in addition to being more relaxed than running the hall, not only did he get a lot of reward, but also picked up a small piece of broken silver on the way - those two pieces of broken silver were worth his salary for several months.

Yesterday, those customers went to the city to play, and no one in the store, including him, took advantage of that beauty difference, but today, greater luck befell Hu Ba.

The supervisor had sent a message that if anyone asked them about the previous night's news in the store, they would only need to lure the person into a pavilion in the outer garden, and whatever money that person had on him would belong to their buddies.

At first, Hu Bayi and the other guys generally didn't understand what the supervisor meant. It wasn't until a playful guest stuffed him with a string of about fifty Kaiyuan heavy treasures and asked him what happened in the inner garden last night, that he realized!

He couldn't understand what happened later, and he didn't dare to read more. I only knew that my young owner and the three rich men were talking in the pavilion, and the tall man named Ao Guang came over and pulled off the splashy money bag and threw it to him, without looking at it.

The splash seemed to know the people inside, and was so frightened that he didn't move, so Hu Ba took the money and quickly slipped away. Go back and count, good guys! There is enough money on the body. It's good to have a few dinner on the first floor tonight, and it won't cost a few. ，

Hu Ba only saw that the splash skin and then left the restaurant without a master, but what happened during the period was not what he wanted to know.

Holding the money bag, I thought that this was the end, but it was not over, and someone just took a few copper coins for him to help deliver the letter. Although it is far from being compared to the previous harvest, it is a good sign that the extra money will continue to flow!

But it was strange that the man didn't know the name of the recipient. But it doesn't matter, it's his duty to help the tenant bring the letter, and according to the man's description, Hu Ba knew that he was looking for Ao Guard. He kept an eye on it, the other party didn't know what Ao Guard's name was, so he didn't reveal any information about Ao Guard's identity to verify.

Walking through the lobby with a small song, Hu Ba vaguely heard the guests talking about the strange stories of the South China Sea and the North in the past few days:

A: "Did you hear that?" This ten-square building was haunted last night, and the young owner was deaf because of it......"

Hu Ba's footsteps paused slightly, and he admired the young owner very much, but then shook his head, wasn't he talking to the guests in the pavilion just now?

B: "What a haunting, it's a thief!" The young proprietor is not deaf, but blind, said the apprentice in the flower doctor's shop in the west of the city. ”

A: "It doesn't matter if she's deaf or blind, it's a pity for this beauty, have any of you seen her today?" ”

At this time, C at the next table couldn't listen anymore, he disdainfully "sighed", and said the opening remarks of the real inside information in the dissatisfied eyes of the two people next to him: "Where did you both inquire from?" That's! ”

Saying that, he poured himself a glass of Shifanglou's self-brewed green wine, shook the cup, and hung the appetite of the guests who stopped listening to the sound around him, and then continued to speak: "The young owner of Shifanglou is neither deaf nor blind, but met a monster last night......"

In the disbelief of the crowd, he looked up and said, "What kind of demon do you think it is?" Oh, you can't guess it, it's a lobster demon! ”

C said this, drank the wine in the pot, and sighed his lips unsatisfied, and was about to leave......

"Wait!" At this point, Ding spoke. He turned his head and instructed Dr. Wine: "Give this brother another pot of green wine, count it in mine." ”

Then he arched his hand to Bing: "What Brother Tai said is really bizarre, I implore Brother Tai to finish talking about the "Lobster Demon", and I don't know if you can explain what this lobster is?" ”

When C saw that someone was asking for wine, he stopped holding it off, and began to slowly pull it again: "This lobster is said to have not been in my Tang Kingdom since ancient times, but from the sea area tens of thousands of miles east of Fusang. It is a sea shrimp with a pair of dragon whiskers and claw, and is called a lobster. ”

"Listen, isn't the word lobster deaf and blind? No wonder it will be passed on as the same absurd words as the previous two. ”

When A heard this, he was immediately unconvinced: "Since no one has ever seen this lobster, where did it come from, how can it be more credible than I said it was haunted?" ”

B was even more unconvinced, he listened to Doctor Hua's apprentice, it is said that Doctor Hua came to this Shifang Building last night to see Shaodong's family, obviously his statement is much more credible.

But it doesn't matter what the truth is, not to mention that C's statement is not groundless: "Heh, don't believe it? If you don't believe it, go to the place where the swill is put in this Shifang Building, and take a look, the shrimp shell that can hold a person is still lying there! ”

When everyone heard him say yes, they couldn't help but be a little moved, wanting to see if there was really that shrimp shell.

Ding saw that Bing didn't continue, and couldn't help asking: "What happened later, who cleaned up the lobster monster?" ”

In the end, the mouth of eating people is short, and C said what he knew: "The lobster demon was suppressed by the popularity of the nobles who lived in the inner garden, and he couldn't use any demon power, so he was shelled and made into grilled shrimp on the spot." The name lobster comes from the mouth of a nobleman. ”

Everyone was silent for a while, and then they all burst into laughter, unexpectedly ending in such a comedic way. Ding reluctantly drank a cup of himself, feeling that he had been tricked as a monkey.

C heard the laughter around him, and recalled the words he heard from the two guys who went into Zhuo Niangzi's room to clean when he accompanied his master Miao Saburo in the inner garden to find him who didn't know where it had fallen and how much money it had dropped, as well as the hideous shrimp shells that the two of them had carried away, and slapped the table with some annoyance: "Smack!" ”

"Don't you believe me? If you don't believe me, come with me, and I'll show you what a lobster is! ”
