Chapter 18 The Land Temple

On Monday, I begged for a collection, and tomorrow the third watch will break out, and "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" really can't stand it, so it's changed to "The Four Famous Catches".

The sun is shining and the warm breeze is blowing.

In the streets of Fucheng, a man was running in a hurry, and he shouted directly from a distance.

Yang Qifeng heard the voice, he looked at the source of the sound, and when he saw the person coming, he immediately greeted him.

After seeing Yang Qifeng, Yang Dong exhaled a breath from his mouth, and then was about to say something, but Yang Qifeng stretched out his palm and swayed it gently, preventing him from saying to Yang Dong; "Let's go, there are a lot of people here, go back to the inn and talk about it,"

The group returned directly to the inn, and with a creak, the wooden door had been closed.

Several servants of the Yang family, each standing at the door and in the corridor, guarded various places to prevent others from listening and entering.

"Say? What's the news? Yang Qifeng sat on the chair, and he smiled.

Although he already knew that if this large amount of silver was smashed, there would definitely be good news, but he didn't expect the news to come so quickly, which somewhat surprised Yang Qifeng.

"In the days when the medicine was robbed, there was a group of people living in a ruined temple three miles outside the city,"

"They came about three days after the drug was robbed, but this group disappeared after the drug was looted," Yang Dong slowly recounted the content of the message.

"Who told you this?" Yang Qifeng gently pressed one hand on his forehead, pressed it gently, and asked in his mouth.

"He is a woodcutter, he goes to chop wood every day, and then transports the dry firewood to the city to sell, and he has to pass by the broken temple every day, so he has an impression of this matter,"

"Have you sent someone to confirm?"

"It's confirmed, the ruined temple is not too far from Fucheng, and the place is not deserted, the people I sent are asking around, and they have an impression of this group of people," Yang Dong replied.

"Reward, three thousand taels of silver, tomorrow, no, today you will send it to this woodcutter,"

"And release the news, the safety of this person is in the hands of our Yang family, these three thousand taels of silver, if anyone dares to move, it is the enemy of my Yang family, I will spend 10,000 taels to buy his head, so that he will not die well,"

"This woodcutter, for the rest of his life, I want him to live comfortably and marry a few concubines,"

"The slave understands that he will do all this properly in a while," Yang Dong is not a stupid person, Yang Qifeng's meaning, he immediately understood, this is to set an example.

As long as this woodcutter gets the benefits he deserves, those who are watching and have certain clues will definitely flock to it.

"There must be brave men under the heavy reward, and the ancients will not deceive me," Yang Qifeng stood up and said with a sigh, as a person of the Great Heavenly Empire, whether it was in ancient times or now, it is better to pursue more than one thing in his bones.

There was a group of people entrenched in the ruined temple, and the woodcutter had known for a long time, but he didn't say anything at all, why not?

It's not that he doesn't want to do a lot of things and look for trouble for himself, but with interests, it's different, driven by interests, and he can take risks.

"Beima, I'm going to go to the ruined temple to check it out in person," Yang Qifeng strode open the door and instructed the servant beside him.

"Okay Second Young Master," one of the servants immediately turned around and left quickly.

"Is Jade Niang going?" After Yang Qifeng walked out of the door, his footsteps stopped and said to Chen Yuniang.

"Go," Chen Yuniang didn't hesitate, and responded very resolutely.

"The Second Young Master is ready," the servant hurriedly walked up and said respectfully.

"Let's go," Yang Qifeng waved his big hand, he took the lead in walking in the forefront, walked out of the inn, reached out to take the reins, stepped on the back of a servant, turned over the horse, raised the whip in his hand, snap! Whipped it up.

The horse was in pain, shook off its hooves and began to gallop.

The group rode horses and rushed out of the city and headed towards the ruined temple.

However, in the land of three miles, the horses galloped wildly, and it didn't take long for the broken temple to be in sight.

a servant in charge of leading the way, who stared at the wind, his braids swaying in the wind, and his mouth shouted loudly; "Second Young Master is here,"

Yang Qifeng came to the broken temple, turned over and dismounted, threw the reins in his hand directly to a servant, and he himself strode towards the broken temple.

Temple, not the exclusive property of monks.

In the pre-Qin period, the temple had a very sacred status, and it was originally a place to worship the ancestors. There are strict hierarchical restrictions on the size of the temple.

However, since the rise of the Han Dynasty and the Qin Dynasty of the Han Dynasty, some of the rules of the pre-Qin Dynasty began to change significantly.

Most shrines refer to land temples.

The land temple in front of you is also the land temple, from the appearance of the land temple, it covers a lot of land, the incense here must be strong in the past, but I don't know what happened, here is gradually broken, and there is no incense anymore.

The statue of the land god in the center has been damaged in many places, missing a piece in the east and a piece in the west.

The complete image is no longer visible, it is covered with dust and cobwebs.

At this moment, in the ruined temple, it is not empty, there are many people inside, and they are searching the ruined temple.

Everyone in this team is the official of Fucheng, and it is the Li Bantou who takes the lead, Yang Dong stepped forward to Yang Qifeng's side and said to Yang Qifeng in a low voice; "Second Young Master, these people were notified by me,"

"Hmm," Yang Qifeng nodded.

Although some of these official forces are incompetent, it is best for them to come forward when they investigate the case.

"Did you find any useful clues?" Yang Qifeng walked into the Land Temple and asked.

"No, someone has dealt with it here, and the important clues have been erased, and the clues left behind are useless," Li Bantou heard the inquiry, and he was the first to reply.

"There are only a few clues that can be left in this land temple, so there is no need to go through a lot of trouble, and many people have been dispatched to carefully search all around this land temple with this land temple as the center,"

"The medicine can't be delivered, I believe it must be in this area," Yang Qifeng stood at the door, his eyes shifted to the outside, and he continued to speak; "Spread the news, there are many capable people gathered in the city, and these people will solve all this for us,"
