0194 Lack of heart

There were some sporadic battles in the temple, but the situation was largely under control.

The entrance and exit points of the temple and some of the most important places in it were occupied, the monks were divided from all over the temple, and few dared to stand up for stubbornness.

Li Tai and Yoo Min converge in the storage area of the temple's melting and casting workshop, and open several warehouse doors, revealing the piles of goods inside. In one of the warehouses, there were many Buddha statues that had been destroyed for obscenity, apparently as part of the looted material.

The history of the robbery of the officials and soldiers in this temple was also interrogated, and first several villagers involved coveted such a huge amount of materials, and then sent people into the temple to negotiate, and the two sides hit it off.

The temple sent a group of monks and soldiers in the name of parading and propagating the Dharma, and then united with the township tyrants to catch up with the officers and soldiers who escorted the supplies, and they cooperated with each other to solve Liu Min's troops.

The servants who were escorted with the team, under the triple pressure of the officers, the heroes and the temple, did not dare to resist, and obediently cooperated with the transportation of materials to the Hongfa Temple.

The grain and silk in the materials have been distributed by the parties involved, but the materials related to the Buddhist affairs are still stored in the temple, ready to be melted and recast, and then continue to be distributed in the following year. The Maitreya statue ordered by Li Tai used many of these materials.

In addition to the missing materials, Liu Min is more concerned about the safety of his missing parts. A few of the temple captives were taken out as guides and led to the burial sites of the tribes.

Liu Min picked up the newly covered mound with his own hands, held a torch and carefully looked through the corpses to identify them, and his eyes couldn't help but burst into tears: "Dog thief An dare, dog thief...... I want you to pay with your blood! ”

Liu Min drew his saber and slashed the monks who led the way to the spot on the spot, but he was still angry, and ordered some of his subordinates to stay here to collect the corpses of their companions for burial, and he led the others back to the temple, and slashed down anyone he saw wearing monks' robes.

When Li Tai heard the news, he rushed over and saw that Liu Min already looked like a mad demon, his whole body was bloody, and his eyes were also blood-red.

He can understand Liu Min's mood, although he and the subordinates are called master and servant, but on the battlefield they are dependent on life and death, he thought it was just a non-dangerous escort, but he didn't want hundreds of parts to be slaughtered, and replaced Li Tai himself, but he was afraid that the revenge would be even more crazy.

But for now, although the temple has been captured, the matter is not over. This temple is still a place outside the law that the government cannot control, but there are still those villagers who live separately in the same place, and if they are allowed to launch a rebellion to fan the people, it will undoubtedly bring serious harm to the local area.

So he stepped forward, raised his hand and pressed Liu Min, who was still wielding a knife, and said in a deep voice: "Liu Langzhong, please endure the grief for the time being, now the evidence of the crime is conclusive, and all those involved will never escape the law." But the most important thing now is not to let this scourge erode in the local area. Yu Kou is scattered in the countryside, once he senses the crisis, he will inevitably save himself, so he should quickly tell the county to be cautious and take precautions, and do not be taken advantage of by thieves! ”

Liu Min also regained a little calm at this time, raised his hand to wipe the tears on his face, but the blood on his face was on the lake.

He wasn't in the mood to care about these subtleties, but only hesitated slightly: "These thieves are entrenched in the countryside, and there is no shortage of forces to explore the government, if they are reported, will it breed more drastic changes?" ”

His thoughts were obviously still a little confused at this moment, so Li Tai continued: "It is reasonable for us to wait for the entry to recover the stolen goods, and the county security guard is also within its duty. Even if the country thief can coerce the government, he is also guilty of the official, and he is not responsible for me! However, if the people are provoked by chasing the stolen goods and killing the thieves, even if we have the mission of chasing the thieves, we will inevitably disturb the local responsibility! ”

Liu Min also came to his senses when he heard this, nodded and said: "Boshan, you are right, the mission is still full of twists and turns, and you really can't make trouble anymore." Even if the county is hiding traitors, it is not my fault. I will immediately send someone to tell the government near Zuo, we just need to defend this side without losing it! ”

After understanding this, he didn't care about killing the monk again to vent his anger, and immediately went to the hall to write an urgent letter and sent someone to send it out.

Li Tai was originally a helper, so he didn't have to worry about how to deal with the aftermath, but returned to the temple storage area and quickly took stock of the harvest.

Strictly speaking, the treasury in this temple also belongs to thieves and should be transported to the overlord.

However, he was not formally ordered by the overlord to enter here to suppress the bandits, but Liu Min's personal relationship, and he participated in it as a volunteer soldier, and of course he had no obligation to report to the overlord how much material he had seized.

The overlord is not responsible for the consumption of his marching expenses, and all the supplies must be self-raised without violating the law, and his subordinates are all gold-swallowing beasts, and all the dispatches must consume a large amount of material supplies, which is also a matter of no choice.

The main business of this Hongbo Temple is to melt and cast Buddha statues, so the temple has accumulated a lot of related materials, including various finished products, and has accumulated several large warehouses.

It was difficult to check and weigh in detail for a while, until the tribes found a few deacons and monks who managed the warehouse among the captives and obtained the relevant books from them, which was considered to have an approximate number of captured characters.

After finding these important accounting books, Li Tai turned his head and ordered his subordinates to set fire to the room where the literature was kept, while he held the accounting books and looked through them, frowning worriedly.

Sometimes it's too much to gain and it can be annoying. Many physical seizures are not like a string of numbers that can be washed clean in a few laps in later generations. Although filling one's own pocket is a basic operation, it is not easy to do too blatantly.

My Healing Game

After a little muttering, Li Tai asked several surviving monks in the temple to be summoned, including the old monk who had received him before, who was still slightly drunk in his eyes.

"There are two choices, one is to bow down immediately and be my slave, and the other is to die now. 1.2......"

Before Li Tai could count to ten, several monks had already knelt down and shouted to Lord Lang for mercy.

After forcing a few people to surrender, Li Tai immediately assigned them tasks, and ordered them to come forward to organize the surviving monks in the temple, especially the workshop craftsmen who had made Li Tai coveted before, he did not intend to let go of any of them, and all of them were to be taken as his own subordinates.

When Liu Min came back to find him, Li Tai had already come up with a preliminary distribution plan.

Except for a few monks who he took in the management of the slave organization, the other monks in the temple were all classified as criminal prisoners. The more than 1,000 craftsmen in the workshop and their families, Li Tai is going to be incorporated as a ministry. He also kept half of all the materials seized in the temple.

None of these people and things will be presented in the report. As for the rest of the gains, Li Tai didn't care. Like this temple, Terada, and all the monks and households, they can't take them away, and the local government will definitely not let them take them.

As for the other personnel in the temple, whether Liu Min wants to keep one layer as well, or whether he will collect them all and transfer them to the overlord's mansion, Li Tai doesn't care.

Liu Min is not as poor as Li Tai, and as a shareholder of Hedong Yanchi, he is still a local tycoon with many assets. This matter is his dereliction of duty first, and there is a high probability that he will not be as ugly as Li Tai, and he should have transferred personnel to the Taiwan government and did not dare to intercept him.

However, in line with the principle of joining forces and not being able to do all the dirty things by himself, Li Tai put forward an opinion, it is better to build another Buddhist temple near Zuo, and use its harvest as a supply for this trip. In this way, Liu Min does not need to pay him another payment.

No matter how rich the family is, the money is not blown by the wind, and it is also a business plan to open up sources and reduce expenditure.

Moreover, Liu Min was still deeply hating the monks for brutally killing him hundreds of parts at this time, and Shamen hated it deeply, and after hearing this, he nodded hatefully and said: "This trip has successfully recovered the stolen goods, and it depends on the power of Boshan." It has been hard to run for many days, and it has been extremely dangerous to go deep into the nest of thieves and make trouble inside. Boshan, you and lead the troops to rest here, tomorrow morning I will lead the staff to search for supplies! ”

After the two made this plan, they discussed and decided on a goal. In addition to this Hongfa Temple, there are several other temples in Chentou Mountain, which are not as grand as here, but they are also slightly worshiped by believers.

It was not yet known how the county government would react, but in order to avoid further disturbing the nostalgia, they chose a temple that was dozens of miles away and had the least reputation.

The temple is said to have been built by outsiders who were not keen on attracting followers and expanding their influence in the local area. Although the name of the temple is not loud, but the shot is very arrogant, in recent years, there are quite a move to dig a cave, the scale is not small, but also to the Hongfa Temple many times to order the Buddha statue, should be in the background of what unknown source of wealth.

This temple is not deeply involved in the township, and it seems to be so thief-like, so it is naturally a very suitable object.

At dawn, Li Tai led his troops to stay here to continue to clean up and sort out the affairs in the temple, while Liu Min led his troops to the north to attack.

In the morning, some of the villagers approached the temple to peep and probe them, but they were all expelled and frightened away by Li Tai's detachment, and the envoys who went to the county to report the urgency had not yet returned.

In the afternoon, Liu Min, who went out, sent people to report that the attack on the temple encountered obstruction and stubborn resistance, although the scale and strength of the temple were not as good as the Hongfa Temple, but the monks and soldiers were extremely brave, according to the temple self-defense, repelled several attacks.

After Li Tai learned of this situation, he faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart, could it be that the temple was a white glove used by the bandit department to contact the outside world and sell stolen goods?

He was still thinking about what to do, and the county government in the north had already sent a messenger to report that the county was already assembling a township regiment to suppress the township riots. With this assurance, Li Taicai sent Zhang Shinu with 300 men and horses to reinforce Liu Min.

In the evening, Liu Min led the crowd back, but his expression was very unsightly, and when he saw Li Tai, he said abruptly: "Boshan, we should be in trouble." Do you know who the temple belongs to? After entering the temple, I found the lotus position of the late Shangshang King and the ancestors of his clan in his Buddhist hall. If there is no accident, this temple should be the family temple of the eldest grandson......"
