Chapter 79: Start Early
didn't wait for the evening, at noon that day, Pei Youdao secretly sent Pei Shiyuan, Pei Shixin and Pei Hong and their brothers and sisters out of Taiyuan City.
Now there are rumors on the street, if you don't arrange everything before the other two react, you won't be able to leave if you want to.
This time the rumor started very suddenly, almost before they returned from the vegetable field outside the city, someone had been deliberately spreading, but not many people cared about it at the time, and the rumor did not spread completely.
But now, after only a morning, these news have spread to almost everyone, making Pei Youdao very passive, the original plan was disrupted, and many things made him anxious, for the maker of the rumors Pei Youdao can be said to hate it to the bone, eager to soak his skin and eat his flesh.
However, it is obvious that now is not the time to investigate who spread the rumors, and now the top priority of the Pei family is how to eliminate all the unfavorable hidden dangers in the fastest possible time.
After sending the three children out of the city as quickly as possible, Pei Youdao returned home directly, and after a morning of spreading, the unfavorable rumors about the Pei family's well and vegetable garden had already reached the ears of the two shopkeepers of Dingxianglou and Changxianglou, and there was not much time left for the Pei family.
Before confirming the authenticity of the rumors, Wang Shoucai and Li Sanxian should not act rashly, and during the period when they sent someone to verify it, it was the only chance for the Pei family to breathe.
"Pei Wan, have you found all the people you are looking for?" As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw that the housekeeper was waiting in front of the door, Pei Youdao's spirit perked up, and he asked Pei Wan in a voice.
"Live up to the master's trust." Pei Wan bowed down and replied: "Twenty idle men, a few of them are idle veterans who have fought and seen blood, as long as the master gives an order, they are willing to do anything!" ”
Pei Youdao nodded lightly, and then asked with some concern: "All the money was given to them?" No one will regret it, right? ”
"10,000 yuan, 500 yuan per person, all of them were distributed to their families without a penny, and that money was enough for their families to spend for decades to come." Pei Wandao: "They know the origin of our Pei family, if they dare to repent, this time the Pei family will fall, and their family will not want to live in peace, they don't dare to think about any crooked thoughts." ”
Money can make ghosts grind, as long as the money arrives, there are people who are willing to work for money.
Pei Youdao can ruthlessly smash out the 10,000 yuan of money in the back of his family, and it is not difficult to recruit a few idlers who are not afraid of death.
Five hundred guan may not be anything in the eyes of a big family like Pei Youdao, but for ordinary households whose average daily income is not even five guan, it can be regarded as a huge amount of money. Many people may not be able to make so much money after working all their lives, and now as long as they go to destroy a well, they can easily get it by destroying a hundred acres of land, why don't they do it?
Anyway, you can't die, if you are caught, at most you will be confiscated into the army or imprisoned for a few years, and it is worth it to exchange a few years of freedom for yourself and your family to have a lifetime of food and clothing.
"That's good!" Pei Youdao clenched his fists vigorously, and ordered Pei Wan in a fixed voice: "You go and tell them, let them start now, first destroy the ancient well, and then destroy the vegetable field, after today, I don't want to see another vegetable leaf in the Pei family's vegetable field!" ”
"Now?" Pei Wan was stunned, "Wouldn't it be too hasty, didn't you say before that you would have to wait until after nightfall?" ”
Not to mention that the danger of doing such illegal deeds in broad daylight has increased several times, and in the end, whether the matter can be done or not is still between the two theories, which is really too risky.
"Can't wait! Now Wang Shoucai and Li Sanxian have already noticed it, and if it's too late, everything will be delayed! ”
Pei Youdao shook his head lightly, he didn't know that things would be easier if he acted at night, but the appearance of those damn rumors made him not even have a night of time now, maybe someone would have started to secretly investigate the ancient well in the Tang Mansion and the Pei family's vegetable field outside the city.
"At night, those people may still have a chance to escape, if it is daytime, they are ninety percent likely to be caught red-handed, and the old slave is afraid that they will ......"
Knowing what Pei Wan meant, Pei Youdao waved his hand and said bluntly: "One person will be paid another hundred times!" Tell them that as long as the Pei family doesn't fall, they will be arrested, and I can also protect them, at most, they will be imprisoned for a few more years. Xiang Nian's imprisonment can be exchanged for a huge fortune of 600 yuan, and they will not refuse! ”
In a word, another 2,000 guan of family funds were spilled out, plus the 100,000 guan that was given to Sun Mancang before, and the 60,000 guan that was handed over to Tang Xiu before, and the 50,000 guan that Pei Shiyuan and his brother and sister took away when they left, the current Pei family can really be called bankrupt!
"Yes, sir."
Pei Wan answered, and then left in a hurry.
The ancient well is so destroyed, touch the door, and a few catties of arsenic will be over.
But what about the 100 acres of vegetable fields outside the city? Can such a large piece of land be destroyed in a word? Even if it's burned, why do you have to prepare hundreds of kilograms of fire oil, right? With so much oil, where can you get it for a while?
Things were in a hurry, and there were too many things to prepare, so I couldn't help but be whipped up by the big housekeeper Pei.
Compared with Pei Youdao's anxiety and restlessness, Tang Xiu in Taoyuan Pavilion seemed much more leisurely and relaxed.
Tang Xiu was holding an ancestral medical book at the moment, reclining on the recliner next to the pond in the back house, enjoying the warmth of spring in the afternoon while savoring the various medical cases recorded by the ancestor in the medical book.
Ordinary medical books, Tang Xiu usually read them for one or two hours, and he was familiar with them in his chest, and he kept them firmly in his mind. But this medical book, which adds up to less than fifty pages, made Tang Xiu read it for more than 20 days in a row but still didn't understand it.
It's not that the medical skills recorded in it are too profound, nor how troublesome the cases in it are, but it's the first time that Tang Xiu has seen the use of qi in a medical book.
Doctors practice qi to nourish their bodies, and they can use qi to clear their pulses during acupuncture, which is no longer a medical skill that ordinary doctors can master.
Qigong masters, Tang Xiu had heard a lot of them in his previous life, but most of them were liars in name only, and they were not enough to believe it. But now, after seeing the magical internal strength of Pei Cai'er and Wan'er, Tang Xiu's understanding of qi has risen to a new level.
Since internal qi really exists, it is not impossible to use qigong to heal patients.
Therefore, Tang Xiu picked up some methods about the luck of doctors from the many medical books left by the ancestors in the study, and under the trial, it was really quite effective, and in just ten days, Tang Xiu had already noticed the inexplicable aura in the meridians of the body.
I have to say that internal qi is really a very magical thing.
With the Qi cultivation method in the medical book, coupled with the spiritual qi refining in the space every day, in just half a month, Tang Xiu felt that his physical strength had far exceeded the peak state in his previous life, and now each of his arms could almost hit five hundred to six hundred catties of strength, and ordinary three or five people were not his opponents at all.
Now, Tang Xiu has become obsessed with this feeling of nourishing qi and refining qi, and he is even more obsessed with the use of internal qi in medical techniques, holding medical skills every day, and his mind is constantly imagining and reenacting all kinds of details about qi therapy cases recorded in the book, just thinking about how to start if he encounters such a case himself, and how to end the patient's suffering in the fastest and most concise way.
After coming to Datang, Tang Xiu began to have a deep interest in medicine for the first time, and was deeply fascinated by it.
