Chapter 262: Counting the Spoils
Early the next morning, a person rode a fast horse and left Wuji Mountain Villa, it was Dowling.
He temporarily settled Concubine Li in Wuji Villa, and he could travel faster alone, especially the horse he was riding now was a good horse cultivated by divine punishment, which could travel thousands of miles a day, and this place was only eight thousand miles away from the western realm, and it could be reached in ten days.
Today's sky is gray, and the spring rain is as expensive as oil, but it makes people feel very depressed.
The dark clouds gradually came from the western sky, and the pressure was very low, and there was still rolling thunder.
"It's damn weather, and it's going to be slowed down again." Dowling scolded secretly, and the whip in his hand fell quickly, as if he felt the eagerness of the new master, and the horse under his crotch also increased his speed a lot.
A bolt of lightning skimmed across the sky, like a monstrous dragon claw tearing the clouds apart, and Dowling looked up, breathing in the dull air, and his heart became more and more agitated.
"Boom ......Boom" The dull thunder sounded, and Dao Lin only felt that the Heavenly Spirit Gai was shaken to the core.
"It's been a long time since I've heard such thunder!" Dao Lin sighed for a while, and sure enough, a powerful person was also small in front of Tianwei.
The clouds were getting lower and lower, and the sky was getting darker and darker, and it was early in the morning, but because of the rain, it became like night.
Between the horse's hooves, the sky lit up from time to time because of the lightning streaking, and soon, after a thunderclap, the rain that had not been seen for a long time finally fell.
The rain poured down, making a splash on the ground, and the otherwise dry road became muddy in an instant, and the horses' hooves stepped on it, and the mud they brought up flew aside.
Dowling slowed down his steed, and the dense rain obscured the cast, and the rain wet his hair and ran down his face, and he had to touch his face every now and then.
I can't go any longer, I'm fine, but the horses can't stand it.
After walking more than twenty miles, Dowling found a village, which was far away from Quang Binh County, and he did not know exactly where it belonged.
Anyway, there was a place to shelter from the rain, and the reins were pulled, and the horses ran towards the village.
When he got closer, he found that the village was empty, so dim outside, but no one lit the lamp, not only that, but the door was locked from the outside.
This means that the villagers of this village have been evacuated, presumably because of the war.
Dowling casually found a courtyard that looked pretty good, and stopped.
He turned over and dismounted, took the reins to the door, and patted the courtyard door politely, he reached out and held the door lock, only to see that he pressed slightly, and the strong iron lock was crumpled into pieces by him.
Tossing the rotten lock aside, Dowling pushed open the courtyard door.
The courtyard of this family is not small, slightly larger than the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon House, and after sending the horse into the stable, Dowling entered the house.
It was dark in the room, but it didn't affect Dowling's vision, and after he glanced around, he came to a conclusion in his heart, looking at the degree of tidying up, he should have moved away.
Dowling walked around the room, reached out and touched the tabletop, a pinch of his thumb, there was dust on his fingers, it seemed that the family had been away for half a month.
Dowling lit the lamp, the dim light made it feel a little warm, went to the table and sat down, took out some dry food and jerky from the storage ring, and took out some fine wine.
A mouthful of jerky and a sip of wine, Dowling eats deliciously.
"Look at it like this, I'm afraid it will rain for a long time, and I shouldn't be able to walk today." Dowling shook his head helplessly and muttered to himself.
When he had his fill, Dowling went to the stables again, and found in the corner of the stable the hay that had not yet been wet, and he had to feed the horses when he was full.
After taking care of everything, Dowling ran back to the house, looked at the sky, the rain was still heavy, and Dowling was ready to sort out the loot he had captured anyway.
As he swiped his palm on the table, a pile of storage rings landed on the table.
Five of them look more classy, and the others are ordinary.
"Which ones to see first?" Dowling held five high-grade storage rings in his left hand and a handful of ordinary storage rings in his right hand.
After looking left and right, Dowling chose the ring on his right hand.
"The good stuff should be saved for last." Dowling said with a smile.
There were a total of 23 ordinary storage rings, and he remembered that there seemed to be a few people from the Sun Empire who had brought two rings.
Pick out the first ring, the internal force is violently injected into it, only to hear a crisp sound, the ring recognition of the owner was rushed away, and consciousness was injected into it.
"Fifty-one thousand taels of silver tickets... Broken silver two several... Clothes several... An identity tag... Some weapons of all kinds..."
Dowling picked up the identity token and looked at it, the token was brass-colored, and it was engraved: Chu - Sanwei 361, turned over the back and was blank.
"At the beginning?" Dowling remembered that the black jade plate was written on the first character.
"Guard? This first family is very powerful, and there are guards. Dowling cushioned the token and set it aside, the token only had the person's number and no identification information.
I picked one again and opened it, and the things inside were basically the same, at the beginning - Konoe three-five-seven.
Dowling sped up, and pieces of tokens appeared on the table, until all the normal storage rings were opened, and the table was already full of things.
One hundred and twenty-four thousand taels of silver tickets, about 10,000 taels of broken silver, twenty identity tokens, and a number of miscellaneous items, Daolin has not yet screened them.
"What's the deal, the silver ticket of the Lieyang Empire is 1.24 million, this money is really fast, I can't open a restaurant by myself for a year and work hard for so much money, I have to say that this group of guards is really rich." (Voiceover: No bad guidance, just a statement of the plot of the novel!) )
"No. 350 to 369, exactly twenty people, does this represent two squads? If you want to calculate the number of people in this way, what family can raise so many warriors as guards? Dowling swallowed and muttered.
Put the silver tickets into your ring, and when you have the opportunity, you can go to a chamber of commerce to exchange them, and the broken silver is universal, which is easy to do.
The identity card was also put away, this is a big military feat, and the military merit of killing twenty intruders from the Pneumatic Realm and one transcendent realm is definitely no less than the military merit of killing a thousand-person team.
As for the other miscellaneous items, Dowling simply screened them, and did not want all the clothes and decorations, but accepted all the medicines, materials, and jewelry.
Some things that he hadn't seen before Dao Lin also put away, but he had Concubine Li, a famous auctioneer, with her eyesight and knowledge, she would definitely be able to help him sift through it.
The ordinary storage ring has been sorted out, these rings Daolin will naturally not throw away, this storage ring itself is a good thing, even an ordinary ring can be sold for a good price.
Dowling's heart is happy, and he has obtained so much wealth for nothing, and he has to be beautiful if he is a person.
Suppressing his excitement, he looked at the five high-grade rings lying quietly on the side, his eyes burning and shining.
