Chapter 450: Asking for money

Since Liu Cheng was cured, the Taoist priest was once again put into the position of savior. Countless villagers surrounded him, "Dao Chief, you must save us!" ”

"Yes, Dao Chief, only you can save our village, you must save us!"

"Dao Chief, please!"

The villagers' eyes were fanatical, as if they were looking at some god.

The Taoist priest sat on the high seat very comfortably, and made a compassionate expression, "Don't worry, everyone take your time, I will save you." ”

The villagers were overjoyed, "Thank you, thank you, Master, you are really a bodhisattva." ”

The Taoist priest snorted coldly, "Bodhisattva, that's Buddhism, what does it have to do with our Taoist priests?" If you can't speak, don't talk nonsense. ”

The villagers hurriedly said, "It's me who is ignorant, don't be surprised." Help us, the number of infected people in the village is increasing, what can we do? ”

The Taoist priest lowered his head, his eyes flickered, but he couldn't see any changes on the surface, "Don't worry, come one by one, I will save you." ”

"That's great! Then we're going to bring the patient over now! ”

"Hey, don't worry. I still have something to say, Chief. The Taoist priest crossed Erlang's legs, shook the rotten pu fan in his hand, and said slowly.

"Do you have any other instructions?" The villagers were cautious about offending him.

The Taoist priest rolled his fingers, "It's the same thing I said last time." I can save you, but I can't pay for it myself, these medicinal materials are some precious medicinal materials, you must make up the cost of the medicinal materials for me, otherwise how can I treat you? Say yes. ”

"This..."

The Taoist priest's face changed, "What, you don't want to give?" Then I can't help it, you just wait for death. ”

The villager gritted his teeth, "Dao Chief, it's not that we don't give this money, but we really don't have it." The village is already poor, and with this strange disease, we really can't afford it. ”

The Taoist priest changed his fake compassion just now, "No money? If you don't have money, don't talk. I can't afford to pay for your own treatment. If you don't have money, don't come to the cure. It has been like this since ancient times, and those who have no money are waiting to die. ”

"What can I do? We really don't have any money. ”

"yes, yes, where can I find the money?"

The villagers were momentarily worried.

Suddenly, there was a small voice in the crowd, "Isn't Miss Xue rich?" You see the material of the clothes she wears, but they are all good things. She and her man seemed to be rich. ”

"Miss Xue?" Someone asked hesitantly.

"Yes, Miss Xue is very rich at first glance. And isn't she a self-proclaimed healer? How can you not be willing to give us money to treat our illness. ”

"Besides, it was she who said she could cure us, so we believed her, and she never got it. It has caused the infection of the people in our village to become more and more serious, and she should have paid for this money. ”

Originally, the villagers still thought that Xue Rou was not from the village, and they were a little embarrassed to let her pay. As soon as this fallacy was spoken, the villagers suddenly did not feel guilty.

"Yes, the money should have been paid by her. It was she who said that she could cure us, and if she couldn't cure us, she should naturally let someone else cure. ”

The Taoist priest was overjoyed when he heard this, "Yes, yes, yes!" This money should be let Xue Rou come out. But if you don't go to her and ask for it, how can someone like her take the initiative to pay you? Go to her and ask for money! When you pay, I will heal! ”

The villagers were bewitched by him, and hummed that what they were doing was right, so they gathered a large group of people at that time and went to Xue Rou's house to ask for money.

Xue Rou opened the door and saw a large group of people, and was startled, "What's wrong?" What's the matter? ”

The leading villager said, "It's nothing, I just want to borrow some money from Miss Xue." ”

"Borrow money?" Xue Rou said strangely, "Do you want to buy anything?" ”

"You don't care what we buy, just take the money out."

Xue Rou was about to laugh angrily, "You guys are borrowing money?" It's pretty much the same thing. She gestured to close the door, "I don't have any money, not a penny, you can go." ”

The villagers resisted the door, "No, you are the richest in the village, and if you don't give money, who will give the money." ”

Xue Rou wondered in her heart, "Why are you borrowing money?" Tell me as it is, I'll think about it. Otherwise I don't have a penny. ”

The villagers looked at each other and finally reluctantly said, "The Taoist chief can treat us, but he said that we need money to buy medicinal herbs, and we don't." ”

"Buying medicinal herbs? What herbs need money? Xue Rou was a little angry, "Those medicinal materials are all ordinary medicinal materials that can be collected on the mountain, he is talking nonsense and lying to you." Don't believe him! ”

"What? If you don't give money, forget it, why do you still slander the Taoist, how can you be such a person? ”

"I'm not." Xue Rou explained, "It's just that the medicinal materials on the prescription can really be picked up in the mountains." ”

Under Xue Rou's explanation, the villagers were skeptical and went back to find the Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest was still that arrogant, "What's wrong? Is the money coming? ”

"Dao Chief, she said that these medicinal materials are ordinary medicinal materials, and they can be picked up from the mountains without money."

"Nonsense!" The Taoist priest was angry and covered up his weakness, "Do you believe what she said?" ”

"But," said the villagers, "she said she didn't bring any money with her, and she didn't have any money with her." ”

"Nonsense!" The Taoist priest began to make up nonsense, and made up his mind to splash dirty water on Xue Rou, "Why are you so stupid." You all believe what she says?! She doesn't want to give money at all, she just doesn't want you to be treated. ”

"We went to her house to find it, and it really didn't have anything of value."

"Humph!" The Taoist priest snorted coldly, and said with his hands behind his back, "Didn't anyone of you see the value of her clothes just now?" How can there be no money. How did she buy these clothes without money, and besides, even if she really didn't have any money, these valuable clothes of hers could be used as a pawn. A piece of valuable clothing might save two or three people. ”

"It's just that you're so stupid, you really think she's really out of money, she's just selfish. How can this rich person care about your life and death, she is afraid that she cares more about herself, how can your life be worth her two clothes! ”

The Taoist priest talked nonsense, which successfully made the villagers deepen their hostility towards Xue Rou, and really thought that Xue Rou was selfish and didn't want to treat them. Especially the poor people, who have always hated the rich. When I heard the Taoist priest say that they were not as good as those two luxurious clothes, I was even more angry.

"Folks, let's go to her for justice! Be sure to get the money back! ”

The villagers were so excited that they were all carried away by the anger, and they turned around and surrounded Xue Rou's house in a large area.

Xue Rou was very helpless, "How can I explain this matter to you, his medicinal materials really don't need money, don't be deceived by him." ”

"Say what?! You're going to slander the Taoist now! ”

"We don't care if it's useful or not, anyway, the Taoist can cure the disease, you can't. You have to give us the money today! ”

"That's right! Get the money out! Otherwise, we'll take out all your clothes!" ”

Xue Rou was speechless, helpless, and her mouth was dry, these people just didn't want to believe her.

At this time, Yuan Junfeng and Fuzhi, who were out, had just walked to the door of the house, when they heard a commotion inside, and pushed the door open, "What are you going to do?!" ”

When the villagers saw him, they flinched, but someone still said, "I've come to ask you for money." ”

"Asking for money? What kind of money do you want? Yuan Junfeng frowned, walked quickly to Xue Rou's side, stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around her shoulder, and protected her.

Fu Zhi also asked strangely, "Is there anything going on in our village?" Why do you want to ask Miss Xue for money. Could it be that someone wants to build a house?! ”

Xue Rou was very surprised, "You're back." It's not a big deal, right? ”

Yuan Junfeng shook his head, "It's okay, don't worry about Rou'er." ”

The villagers were still arguing, "We don't care, you'll have to pay for it anyway." It's our life-saving money! ”

"Life-saving money?!" Yuan Junfeng sneered, "Whose life is it to save?" Yours? What do you have to do with me? Or are you willing to change your name to Yuan and call me Dad, but you have climbed a layer of kinship, and I will consider giving you a little. Otherwise, why?! ”

"You, you, you! You scolded us! ”

"What's wrong with scolding you?" Yuan Junfeng pinched his wrist, "If you dangle in front of me again, it is very likely that I will beat you." Don't play that trick of going to the palace to force the palace, I won't eat your set. ”

He had endured the people in this village for too long, if it weren't for Xue Rou's bent desire to cure them, and he was unwilling to take action against people who didn't know kung fu, otherwise he would have to clean them up severely.

Asking for money? Even if they have money, what does it have to do with the people of this village?

Xue Rou quietly bent the corners of her mouth and gave Yuan Junfeng a thumbs up, she had never been willing to deal with ordinary people. But today, I can't explain how this is shaking, only to find out that Yuan Junfeng's majesty is more effective.

Fu Zhi took a stick and also stood beside Xue Rou. Yuan Junfeng took the stick, took out the dagger, and broke it into one by one in three or two strokes.

"It's like clay, and I don't want to say it a second time. If you still have to block the door, or even want to do it, I'll accompany you. ”

Yuan Junfeng made a ruthless move, and his martial arts were also understood by the villagers, so many people shrank their necks and didn't dare to speak.

Although the villagers were unwilling, they still left in twos and threes. Yuan Junfeng put the knife away and looked at Xue Rou with gentle concern, "Rou'er, are you okay?" They didn't do anything to you, did they? ”

Xue Rou shook her head, "I'm fine, but you, I didn't return last night, I'm really worried." I went up the mountain to look for you, but I didn't see anyone, how did you come back? ”

Yuan Junfeng smiled, "This is a long story." ”
