Chapter 34: The plot has changed dramatically
Since the location of the treasure has been known, Chen Jinnan has not moved to it, and he has not seen the treasure with his own eyes, and he has never had a bottom in his heart.
Yang Yifei had no opinion, but he also explained that the treasure was poisoned by Emperor Liang Yuan, and he still needed to be careful when taking the treasure.
Chen Jinnan instructed his disciples to prepare many buckets, filled with clean water, and some of the buckets were filled with soaphorn powder.
Ready, take advantage of the dark to rush to Tianning Temple, now the monk has not yet arrived, Tianning Temple has no incense.
The young monks who originally stayed in the temple couldn't get by, so they went out to travel, or went around to make fortunes, or went to other temples to place orders, and Tianning Temple is now empty, which is just convenient for them.
When he arrived at the Tianning Temple, Chen Jinnan used a dagger to scrape the big Buddha, and sure enough, he only scraped an inch thick of mud, revealing the gold inside, and the disciples of the Heaven and Earth Society who came to take the treasure were ecstatic and immediately got busy.
The disciples put on gloves made of tarpaulin, opened the belly of the golden Buddha, took out the poisonous gold and jade treasures, first put them in soaphorn water to wash, washed all the poison, and then washed them with water, and then wiped them dry and packed them.
The Golden Buddha was sawn into gold bricks piece by piece by them with a hacksaw, packed into a box and transported back to the entrance of the hall, and did not even let go of the sawn gold dust.
The gold used in this golden Buddha is about three cubic meters, and one cubic of gold is 19.32 tons, which is nearly fifty-eight tons of gold, which is converted into a unit of measurement in this era, about 9,700 catties, or more than 150,000 taels, and converted into silver, which is 1.5 million taels.
However, these gold are the least valuable part of this batch of treasures, and other treasures are the big ones, not only their own value, but also their historical value.
The value of this batch of gold and jade treasures, conservatively estimated, is not a hundred times that of the Golden Buddha, which has been the tax of the Qing court for several years in this era.
The taxes of the Qing court need to support the entire imperial court, build bridges and pave roads, and provide disaster relief for the people all need to be allocated by the imperial court, but these treasures only need to support one heaven and earth society.
All the gold and jade treasures were transported back to the Tangkou secret warehouse that night, but it took more than half a month for the golden Buddha to finally get it back at all.
Until this moment, Chen Jinnan was finally completely relieved, what Brother Yang said turned out to be true, so that the day when the anti-Qing Dynasty and the restoration of Ming were successful was just around the corner.
……
On March 19, the sky was overcast, and the drizzle had been falling intermittently for a few days, and although there was no rain today, there was still no sign of clearing.
Yang Yifei and Chen Jinnan disguised themselves slightly, did not bring any entourage, prepared incense, candles, paper money, and went to the coal mountain early in the morning.
The trajectory of this world has changed dramatically, turning into an unknown future.
was supposed to be taken down by Kangxi more than a month ago, but now he is alive and well, just because Kangxi was scared by the thunderbolt.
Now that Ao Bai is presiding over the anti-thief who is holding a thunderbolt bomb, Kangxi has no choice but to temporarily press the killing intention, with the intention of making Ao Bai and the anti-thief lose both, whether it is the anti-thief killing Ao Bai or Ao Bai destroying the anti-thief, it is the situation he wants to see.
It's a pity that the thieves are too angry, and the people of Aokido agreed that whoever avenges the Lord of Yin Xiang will succeed to the position of the Lord of Xiang, so they planned the assassination of Aobai.
In the end, the assassination operation ended in failure, but the soldiers were lost, and because a brother was captured, fell into the hands of Aobai, for safety, had to abandon the Aoki Tangtangkou stronghold in the inner city, evacuated from Dongzhimen, and transferred to Sanhe County, Shuntianfu.
Sure enough, in just two days, the stronghold of Aoki Tangkou was surrounded by Qing soldiers, and after all, someone couldn't stand the torture of the Tartars and summoned the Tangkou to be.
Fortunately, the person who was arrested was only a grassroots disciple, and he didn't know much, except for the location of the hall, other information was not clear, only that there was an additional Thunderbolt Hall in the Heaven and Earth Society, and the incense master was served by the former successor of the Thunderbolt Hall, but he didn't know anything about Yang Yifei's specific information.
Ao Bai learned the news, and finally knew that the powerful explosive in the other party's hand was a thunderbolt.
When Kangxi received this report, he didn't dare to move lightly, and ordered him to go all out to track down the Heaven and Earth Society and arrest the heirs of the Perak Hall.
Ao Bai Sheng's aim was in his hands, and he was arrogant, and he took the opportunity to make a big deal of injustice, and brutalized Han merchants, and any Han people who had anything to do with gunpowder were arrested, and those who sold saltpeter, sulfur, charcoal, and fireworks and firecrackers were arrested......
Thousands of people were arrested, and all the property of these merchants was confiscated by the people of Aobai, and all the business was handed over to the Manchurians.
Not only did he do this himself, but he also issued an official document, ordering all local government offices to also "strictly investigate" the anti-thieves of the Heaven and Earth Society, and search for people who secretly possessed thunderbolts and the materials used to make thunderbolts.
As a result, not only in the capital, but also in all parts of the world because of the "thunderbolt" because of the number of people imprisoned, for a time, the people complained, and the Han people hated the Qing court very much.
They don't put the account on Aobai's head, because Aobai did it with the emperor's holy decree, but unfortunately they only dare to be angry and dare not speak.
Fortunately, there are not many people involved in these businesses in the Heaven and Earth Society, and the loss is not large, Chen Jinnan couldn't help but feel a little guilty when he saw such a situation, because he thought that this catastrophe would be brought by Heaven and Earth.
But Yang Yifei didn't think so, he felt that this was a good thing, the more the Qing court oppressed, the more Han people hated the Manchus, and the more fertile the soil of their Heaven and Earth Society would be.
This can be seen from the rapid increase in the development of members in various places in the past few months, of course, the Heaven and Earth Society does not accept everyone, before accepting people, the joiners will be subject to strict checks and various tests, in order to prevent the undercover agents sent by the Qing court from breaking into the interior.
As for Aokitang, it was broken by this incident and then established, during the assassination of Aobai, due to the mistake of Xuanzhen Daochang's decision-making, resulting in heavy casualties among his brothers, if it wasn't for Qian Laoben's quick decision, maybe the people who participated in the assassination would have been wiped out.
Now there is no need to fight for Aoki Hall, Xuanzhen Daoist feels ashamed of his brother, and takes the initiative to withdraw from the competition for the position of the incense master, and is willing to serve Qian Laoben as the new incense master.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that the people of Yunnan Muwangfu entered the palace to assassinate Kangxi, intending to blame Wu Sangui, which also ended in failure.
Most of the people were killed and wounded, and the shaking lion Wu Lishen, the iron-backed Canglong Liu Dahong, and Liu Yizhou, the mainstays of Muwangfu, were captured alive, and this time there was no Wei Xiaobao to save them.
Liu Yizhou was greedy for life and afraid of death, and before he could suffer much punishment, he sold Mu Wangfu clean and took refuge in the Qing court, while Wu Lishen and Liu Dahong were executed on the spot.
After Fang Yi was separated from the large army in the palace, he ran around, and by chance broke into Cining Palace, and was taken down by Mao Dongzhu, who pretended to be the queen mother.
Seeing that Fang Yi was beautiful and very useful, Mao Dongzhu asked him to bring people back to Shenlong Island and absorb them as a member of the sect when he came to have a private meeting with her during a private meeting with Slim Toutuo.
Mu Jiansheng and his entourage believed in the three of them too much, and did not transfer decisively like the Heaven and Earth Society, but they were wiped out by the Qing court, and only the small county lord Mu Jianping escaped because he was not with Mu Jiansheng and others.
Her brother and a group of relatives died tragically, and she was alone, so she had to disguise herself as a beggar and live on the streets in order to protect herself.
These two are worthy of being people with the luck of the heroine, even if they didn't have Wei Xiaobao, they saved their lives.
