The one hundred and twenty-eighth round: borrowing money
Zhao Zheng turned into a gray shadow and jumped around in the heights, playing with the two angry boar kings below.
The black boar king was hit by a sword in his body, and he sprinkled blood as he ran, his vitality gradually weakened, and it didn't take long for him to lie on the ground and bleed to death.
With only one boar king left, things are much easier.
Zhao Zheng stopped on a very thin branch, relied on the buoyancy of the upward rush to support his body, turned around and looked coldly at the remaining brown wild boar king, clenched his hand slightly, and the cold light on the sword of his life suddenly appeared.
The brown boar king was killed in an instant, rushed to the bottom of the tree, Zhao Zheng flew down, curled up in mid-air, stepped on the fat back of the boar king with both feet, and stabbed the sword fiercely. The sword was aimed at the left back of the brown boar king, and although it failed to pierce the atrium directly, it also severed the blood vessels around the atrium.
The wild boar king ran wildly in pain, shook his body wildly, shook his head, but failed to drop Zhao Zheng on his body, and it didn't take long for him to follow in the footsteps of the previous wild boar king and fall into a pool of blood.
The two wild boar kings have been killed, and the system prompts sounded one after another, and Zhao Zheng got all the benefits promised before, the most important of which is, of course, the quenching fruit.
Since the body of the Wild Boar King was of little value, Zhao Zheng only kept one and stored it in the Ice Cellar Warehouse, and the other one was left in the Wild Boar Forest Replica and was not taken away.
"Finally got the second quenching fruit." Zhao was in a good mood as he wished, quit the dungeon, and returned to the real world in the quiet of the night.
After getting the second quenching fruit, there is no need to enter the Wild Boar King dungeon again, and Zhao Zheng has no enmity with the wild boar. But I don't have a hobby of killing wild boars.
He then entered the Empty Quiet Room dungeon instead. Practice with peace of mind. Used up the few remaining chances to enter the dungeon.
There was no word for a night, and at noon on the second day, a special guest came to the rejuvenation medical hall, claiming that there was something wrong with Zhao Zheng. She is none other than Lin Zhong'er of the Rejuvenation Medical Center.
Zhao Zheng was surprised to learn that Lin Zhong'er came to see him from the shopkeeper, and subconsciously thought that Lin Zhong'er's intention was related to love, but when he met Lin Zhong'er in private. Only to find out that it was not like that.
Today's Lin Zhong'er had a melancholy face, her eyes were red, and her eye circles were slightly swollen, like a pair of pink peaches, obviously she had just cried, and she cried very much. Even if Lin Zhong'er was sad for love, she wouldn't cry so sadly, and even her eyes were swollen from crying.
Zhao Zheng guessed that Lin Zhong'er had encountered some difficulties, his face was much more solemn, and he hurriedly asked Lin Zhong'er to sit down on the chair in his room. Then he said, "Miss Zhong'er, look at you as if you have just cried." ”
"Don't hide it from your son. I've been in a big trouble in my family, and I'm really desperate, so I'm here to find you. Lin Zhong'er's voice was hoarse, obviously crying in her throat.
"Tell me, we met once, and if I can help, I will never refuse."
"Half a month ago, Miao County's uncle was too cold due to old age and decay, and the void yang was turned away, and the blood accumulated on the top of his head, and suddenly he became slurred and quadriplegic. Miao County Ling brought his uncle to my family's hospital to see a doctor, and my grandfather took a few medicines for him. This disease is a terminal disease, and it is difficult to cure it with medication, and the few medications prescribed only have a relieving effect. Miao County ordered his uncle to take him back, and a few days later, his uncle's condition deteriorated rapidly, and his head was bruised and died. Lin Zhong'er explained.
When Zhao Zheng heard that this matter was related to the Miao County Order, his brows furrowed slightly, in this Qibao County, the Miao County Order can be said to cover the sky with one hand, which is no different from the Earth Emperor. If you mess with this Miao County Order, things will be difficult to do.
"Flowers bloom and fall, life and death, this is a normal phenomenon, but Miao County Ling is messing around, insisting that there is a problem with the medicine prescribed by our medical hall, and his uncle is poisoned. This is simply nonsense, my grandfather's prescription is no problem, and he will not eat dead people at all. Miao County Ling said this, just to blackmail some money. He asked our family to hand over 10,000 taels of silver as compensation, but our family couldn't come up with so much money, so he arrested my grandfather and put him in prison. ”
The more Zhao Zheng listened, the more angry he became, and his brows furrowed even more. This Miao Li has been searching for people's fat and people's ointment for many years, and his family property is far above the three members of Zhang, Zhou, and Luo, but he is still so greedy that he actually blackmailed the head of the Rejuvenation Medical Center, and one mouth is 10,000 taels of silver, where can ordinary people get it.
"As the saying goes, the little arm can't twist the thigh, how can we, the grass people, be able to fight the yamen, we can only be bullied. My grandfather is too old to endure the pain of prison, and I want to spend money to ransom him, but I can't take out the ten thousand taels of silver. I went to the yamen to ask Miao County to ask him to pay a little less fine, but he didn't agree at all, and I almost got a board in the yamen. When Lin Zhong'er said this, she couldn't help but feel sad, and raised her sleeve to wipe her tears twice.
"Don't cry yet, if you lack money, I'll lend it to you." Zhao Zheng suppressed his anger and said comfortingly.
"My family has been running a medical clinic for many years, and has saved more than 4,000 taels of silver, and if I sell the gold and silver jewelry and the house, I can make up more than 1,000 taels of silver. My relatives from all walks of life can also lend me some money, and if you add it up, it will be more than 6,000 taels of silver, and the difference of 4,000 taels of silver will make up 10,000 taels of silver. I really couldn't find a place to borrow money, so I cheekily approached you, Childe, hoping that Childe could help. Great kindness, grateful. Lin Zhong'er bit her lip, got up from the chair, walked in front of Zhao Zheng, bent her legs, and knelt down.
"I can't do it, I can't do it." Zhao Zheng hurriedly supported Lin Zhong'er and grabbed the pair of slender and smooth wrists, "Money is something outside the body, and I happen to have some spare money on me, just lend it to you, it's not a big deal, you don't have to do this." ”
"This amount of money is not small, I really don't know how to repay you."
"If you don't cry, you can repay me."
"How can this work, I must repay you well." Lin Zhong'er lowered her head slightly, "When this matter passes, I am willing to be a slave and serve you for the rest of my life." ”
"Let's put aside the retribution or something, let's talk about how to save your grandfather." Zhao Zheng diverted the topic.
"It's easy to save my grandfather, just send 10,000 taels of silver to the yamen."
"Let me think about it, maybe there's another way." Zhao Zheng let go of the hand holding Lin Zhong'er's wrist, touched his chin, and thought about it. If he robbed the prison, with his ability, he would be able to easily rescue Lin Jiyuan. But after the robbery, the Lin family's grandfather and grandson will become wanted criminals, and they can only die in the future, which is not advisable.
This matter still has to be resolved through gentle means, either by relying on personal relationships, or by paying money directly.
His sister knows people in the government, and if she is accommodating through the back door, she should be able to make Miao Li blackmail a little less money, but in this way, he has to let his sister beg others, which he doesn't want to see. After thinking about it, he decided to settle the matter with money, although it would cause him a lot of losses, but he had a way to get back this money ten times in the future, and he would never let Miao Li, a big corrupt official, take advantage.
"There's nothing left to do, it seems that we can only spend money to ransom people. I will lend you eight thousand taels of silver, and you will take out two thousand taels of silver yourself, and make up ten thousand taels of silver. I'll give you a little extra money, so you don't have to sell your house and jewelry. Zhao Zheng decided.
"If I pay 2,000 taels, it's too little, it's better to pay 5,000 taels, my family can still afford this money." Lin Zhong'er hurriedly waved his hand.
"Don't bargain with me, I'm in charge of this matter." Zhao Zheng tidied up his neckline and pointed to the door, "Your grandfather is old and won't be able to stay in prison for long, the sooner we are, the better." You wait here for me for a while, I'll go talk to my sister, and we'll leave right away. ”
Zhao Zheng went out of the house and went straight to his sister's boudoir to ask for resignation and leave. He didn't want his sister to meddle in this matter, so he concealed the truth and found another excuse, lying that he was going to the rejuvenation medical hall to do something. He just said yesterday that he would not leave for a few months, but the next day he broke his promise, which was somewhat ashamed. Fortunately, Shen Luoxia knew that Lin Zhong'er was looking for him to go out, so she didn't blame him.
Zhao Zheng went back to the house and took Lin Zhong'er, and the two got into the carriage that Lin Zhong'er had taken here, and rushed back to Qibao County all the way.
The carriage was slower than the horses, and by the time they arrived at Qibao County, it was already dark, and if it was any later, I was afraid that the city gate would have been closed. The two hurried slowly, after all, they were still a step late, the yamen had already been closed, and Lin Jiyuan would not be able to redeem Lin Jiyuan tonight no matter what, so the matter had to be stopped.
Zhao Zheng instructed the coachman to drive to the rejuvenation medical hall and sent Lin Zhong'er home by a different route.
Lin Ji was far away, Lin Zhong'er was left alone in the Rejuvenation Medical Hall, it was inconvenient for men and women to be alone, Zhao Zheng didn't even enter the door, and after appeasing Lin Zhong'er for a few words, he got into the carriage and asked the coachman to send him to his residence.
Lin Zhonger was worried about her grandfather's imprisonment in the past two days, and she cried for an unknown number of times, but she was really desperate, so she mustered up the courage to find Zhao Zheng. Her choice was indeed not wrong, after finding Zhao Zheng for help, her heart seemed to have a backbone, and she was at ease all of a sudden. She watched the carriage depart, her eyes complicated.
Zhao Zheng returned to his residence to rest, lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, dug into the memories in his mind, and recalled the game strategies one by one. Miao Li is an important villain NPC character in Qibao County, and he has two tasks, one of which is to steal the task, using one of Miao Li's handles, sneaking into Miao Li's house and stealing Miao Li's property for many years, this money is a huge amount of money. Another task is the killing mission, the purpose of the task is very simple, that is, to kill Miao Li by force and eliminate harm for the people.
Miao Li is in the Quadruple Heaven realm, and Zhao Zheng can't kill him for the time being. As for the task of stealing, it is also quite risky, and it can't be done for the time being, so he can only wait until he reaches the Fourth Heaven and has a certainty, so that he can find a way to clean up this Miaoli.
"Miao Li, my silver is not so easy to spend, how you swallow this silver, I will let you spit it out." Zhao Zheng had a lightning-fast thought in his heart. (To be continued.) )
