Chapter 116: Newcomers Join

"If such a large box is all copper coins, how much will it cost!"

An Su looked at the few boxes in front of him and sighed.

It is said that "rich monks and poor Taoists" It seems that the monks in this temple are indeed rich and flowing! ”

An Su looked at these boxes with emotion, once he, as the big boss of Huangfeng Village, had never thought of filling such a large box with copper coins.

In fact, they still have some property in Huangfeng Village, but because Huangfeng Village needs to feed many people, the property they robbed will be used soon, so there will not be so much spare money to save.

"I don't know if the monk is rich or not, but the two Taoist disciples Li Yi and Brother Jing are definitely not poor."

Qi Ning couldn't help but tease.

It is true that as he said, Li Yi and Jing Zizheng are indeed not poor, although they do not have much money, but the weapons and accessories they wear are worth a lot of money.

For example, Li Yi's stick fixed the storm, when he was in Yuyang County, Qi Ning's uncle Song Shilong once said that this spear is the best in the gun, and the price is more than a thousand gold, and it is a treasure soldier that a gun master dreams of.

And Jing Zizheng's own family is a wang family and is not short of money, and the pure transparent glazed jade pendant he wears is hot even if Qi Ning looks at it.

Generally speaking, the glaze will have some color and will not be very transparent, but Jing Zizheng's glazed jade pendant is pure and flawless, without the slightest color, much more transparent than ordinary crystal.

And the reason why Qi Ning knew that this was a glass jade pendant instead of a crystal jade pendant was because there was a regular octagonal shape made of gold in the center of this jade pendant.

On the front of this money is a gossip figure, and on the back is a variety of charms.

Spending money is one of the Taoist ritual vessels, and the shape and quality are generally different, but Jing Zizheng's money is cast in gold, which shows its value.

In addition, it is sealed in transparent glass, and the value cannot be assessed.

"I'm afraid these chests are not only for copper coins, but the slightly smaller boxes on the side should be for loose silver."

Yang Ping continued.

"Oh, how did Shopkeeper Yang know?"

Qi Chao asked even more curiously, after all, the small box just now did not have the mark of copper coins on the inner wall that he had carefully observed.

"You see this box has this small drawer on the lid that can be pulled out, which is usually used for scissors and scales."

In the Dayu Dynasty, most of the ordinary people used copper coins, but there were also some large transactions that required the use of silver, and the use of silver would cause weighing and change.

So in the process of trading with silver, scissors and small scales are essential things.

And Yang Ping, as the shopkeeper, has seen this kind of box specially used to hold loose silver before.

"This temple is more than 60 miles away from the city of Luozhou, and under normal circumstances, the pilgrims in the city should not come so far to this temple to burn incense and pray for blessings, so it can be seen that the money in this box is definitely not the incense money of the pilgrims."

Li Yi shook his head and said gloomily.

"Yes, it seems that most of these possessions are for business travelers, and where is a temple here, it is simply a cottage."

At this time, Keiko also understood the true face of this temple.

"It turns out that the cottage can still be done like this, and I knew that I would also build the temple into a temple."

An Su said with annoyance, thinking that he had a large number of people in Huangfeng Village, but he could still only live a bleak life, and he was busy every day for a bite of food, but he still couldn't eat.

But this temple in front of me can not only appear in a swagger, but also harvest so richly.

"Come on! The imperial court has already issued an order to destroy the Buddha, if you turn your Huangfeng Village into a temple, are you afraid that the government will not trouble you? ”

Keiko was laughing and teasing.

"If we can't pretend to be a monk, then we can pretend to be a Taoist."

As soon as An Su finished speaking, he realized that what he said was a little inappropriate, and he suddenly remembered that Li Yi and Jing Zizheng were both Taoist disciples.

It's a bit insulting to say this myself.

"Childe, don't mind, I'm just kidding!"

Li Yi disagreed.

"It seems that this temple was also affected by the Buddha extermination order, and the fake monks here will flee here, and I don't know if these guys who have lost their conscience are dead or hiding where they have become rich."

"Heavenly reincarnation, retribution is not happy, even if these guys escape, they will definitely die a bad death."

Keiko said solemnly.

Soon the group returned to the main hall of the temple, and Xu Laoliu and the others were looked at by Yu Zhenlei and did not dare to move at all.

"Childe, now that we've figured out the roots of these guys, what are we going to do with them?"

An Su walked to Xu Laoliu's side, grabbed his leader with one hand, and dragged him in front of Li Yi.

The other people trembled when they heard An Su's words, and as soon as they wanted to open their mouths to beg for mercy, they were so frightened by An Su's murderous eyes that they swallowed back the words begging for mercy.

Ansu's question also stopped Li Yi, and he didn't know how to deal with these people for a while.

"Xu Lao Liu, what do you think I should do with you?"

Li Yi did not ask Jingzi Zheng how to deal with these nine people this time, but directly asked Xu Laoliu, the party.

"You kid, don't be pretty, if you want to kill, you have to listen to the honor, but before I die, I have a reluctant request."

Xu Lao Liu did not kneel and beg for mercy, but said very hard.

"Tell me about it."

Li Yi's face showed a playful look, and Jing Zizheng's face showed the same smile.

"It's all my idea to attack you today, it has nothing to do with them, and they are all poor beggars, so please let them live."

After speaking, Xu Lao Liu closed his eyes and waited for the arrival of death.

But Li Yi didn't look at him, but turned his head to look at the other eight people.

After listening to Xu Laoliu's words, the eight people all lowered their heads one after another, their faces were three points ashamed, three points excited, three points regretful.

Then Li Yi gave Jing Zizheng a look, and Jing Zizheng immediately understood what this junior brother thought.

"I think you are also a daring man, I want to let you live, but I am worried that you will do something unreasonable again, why don't you just follow us and listen to our dispatch?"

As soon as Jing Zizheng's words came out, Xu Lao Liu immediately opened his eyes, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

"I don't agree to give a happy word!"

An Su saw that Xu Lao Liu and the eight people couldn't react for a while, so he said coldly.

"I'll agree, thank you for ignoring your past suspicions."

This Xu Lao Liu can also be regarded as a person with vision, the first person he thanked was Li Yi, and then Jing Zizheng.

In fact, in Li Yi's team, although Jingzi is Li Yi's senior brother, everyone thinks of Li Yi as the leader, and Jingzizheng does not have the slightest idea, in his opinion, his junior brother is indeed more suitable than himself to be the leader of this team.

Although he is younger than himself, he is indeed much stronger than himself in terms of personality charm.

For example, An Su, Hai Yin and Yu Zhenlei are all very convinced of him.

Then the nine of them reported their names and backgrounds.

The first is Xu Lao Liu, his real name is Xu Yan, who was indeed a bandit and ranked sixth in their cottage.

Later, due to the encirclement and suppression of the government, their cottage was broken, and he escaped because he was not in the village at that time.

Although they are all mixed with the cottage, but he is different from Ansu, his own strength is not very strong, but he is a rare think tank in their cottage, and his eloquence is excellent, and he is responsible for the negotiation between their cottage and other forces.

At that time, when the government encircled and suppressed their cottage, he was outside preparing to contact other cottages to jointly fight against the government's encirclement and suppression, but unfortunately the government's action was too fast, and before he could contact the cottage action, their cottage was destroyed.

The other eight were originally beggars in the city of Luozhou, who lived by begging all year round, but often engaged in petty theft.

They are Chen Jian and Chen Chao brothers, Li Ji, Zhang Zhou, Gu Rong, Guo Zhen, Hu Qing, and Lin Bing.

And the one who was about to be drugged just now was Hu Qing, this guy has been stealing all year round, so he has also practiced a trick of picking the door and slipping the lock, drugging and beating the stuffy stick.

And the other guy who led them down to the underground palace was Zhang Zhou, this guy seems to be a roe deer and a rat and obscene and timid, but this guy also has a unique skill, he is a guy who knows lip language.

That's why he was able to beg for mercy and lead the way in the first place.

At the same time, he is very good at observing words and feelings, so he is also a figure who has the opportunity to slap horses among the nine.

As for the others, they also have their own abilities, and this is the reason why they were chosen in the first place.

After he finished the introduction, Keiko Zheng also gave them a general introduction to the situation on his side.

When they heard that Li Yi and the others had come back from Biansai, and that Ansu was a big boss in a cottage before, and Haiyin was the khan of the Xianbei tribe, all nine of them were stunned in place.

Originally, they thought that they were just joining an ordinary caravan, but they never thought that they would join such a team.

This made the nine people rejoice, they knew that from today onwards they would truly be free from the sea of suffering.

But what they don't know is that they are not only out of the sea of suffering today, but they will also travel thousands of miles with their tails and climb the feathers to fly all over the world in the future.

After both sides were introduced, they all sat around the fire, chatting and eating, and the atmosphere was harmonious, completely losing the tense feeling just now.

Just when Li Yi and the others were talking and laughing in this ruined temple, a horse was galloping more than ten miles away.

On horseback sat a man wearing a hat and a gourd on his waist and carrying a long sword on his back, this person was Mu Junhe, who had fought with He Qiu and others outside the city of Luozhou Prefecture before.

In front of him, An Le was lying on horseback, and he was still unconscious.

It's not that he hasn't woken up, in fact, he woke up a few times on the way, but every time he woke up, he was knocked out by Mu Junhe before he had time to speak.

Behind them, there were also more than a dozen war horses galloping at this time, chasing them.

Not long ago, after the kneeling circle of six revealed Mu Junhe's identity, He Qiu and the other soldiers immediately launched an attack on Mu Junhe.

But although Mu Junhe's reputation as "the number one swordsman in the world" is a little watery, as a top swordsman, his strength is far from being comparable to He Qiu and several soldiers.

However, because Mu Junhe's impression of He Qiu and several soldiers was not bad, the two sides could be regarded as talking and laughing before fighting.

Therefore, he has always been more restrained when he shot, otherwise He Qiu and the others would not be able to kill Mu Junhe even if the number of them doubled.

It was precisely because of the mercy of Mu Junhe's subordinates that He Qiu and the others had the opportunity to hunt down Mu Junhe all the way.

When Mu Junhe beat He Qiu and the others to the ground, he continued to carry An Le towards the official road in Luozhou, and he didn't care at all about An Ding, who also fainted on the ground.

Although Mu Junhe knew that this peace was related to stability on earth, he only acted according to his heart, and he recognized peace and happiness but represented his obligation to save stability.

As for why he ran towards the official road that seemed to be more exposed, it was because he knew that his current behavior would definitely cause a large-scale pursuit by the government.

And there must be horses on the official road, and after having horses, he can easily escape with peace.

This is also why Mu Junhe now has horses to ride, as for the unlucky ghost who was robbed by Mu Junhe, he was still limping in the heavy rain and scolding angrily.

Because Mu Junhe's hand He Qiu and others also quickly eased up, they followed the traces left by Mu Junhe all the way to the official road, they were lucky to meet the unlucky ghost, and after a brief understanding of the situation, another batch of unlucky ghosts were born.

A caravan bound for the city of Luozhou was stopped by He Qiu and others, and their horses were naturally requisitioned after identifying themselves.

And because He Qiu and the others knew that they couldn't beat Mu Junhe, he also specially arranged for a soldier to ride a horse back to Luozhou Prefecture to move the rescuers.

He Qiu's own group chased Mu Junhe all the way on the official road, and they soon discovered Mu Junhe's traces, after all, Mu Junhe was one person and two horses, and the speed was not as good as He Qiu and others who rode one person and one horse.

In order to avoid the entanglement of He Qiu and others, Mu Junhe had no choice but to turn his horse's head and flee towards the outside of the official road.

And coincidentally, the direction of his escape happened to be the direction of the temple where Li Yi and the others were.

Facing the increasing rain, although Mu Junhe was wearing a hat, he still felt that his vision was slowly blurred by the rain under the running of the horses.

In this case, Mu Junhe felt that he would soon be caught up by He Qiu and the others, so after a short period of thought, he decided to give up the horse instead of no, and at the same time let the horse run at will to confuse the other party.

So Mu Junhe led An Le to jump off the horse, and then he raised his foot and kicked under the belly of the horse.

The kick was accurate and ruthless, and it was kicked directly at the important part of the horse.

The colt neighed in sorrow, and then opened its hooves and galloped through the rain.

If the horse can speak at this time, it will definitely scold Mu Junhe bloody, it has worked hard to carry Mu Junhe and An Le here, Mu Junhe, this bastard, not only does not thank it for a kick in an important part of it, this kick is likely to make it cut off.

Mu Junhe, who was walking in the woods, did not feel the slightest inappropriateness, and at this time, he saw a smoke looming in the heavy rain in the distance halfway up the mountain, and it quickly dissipated.

He couldn't help but be overjoyed, and walked quickly towards the halfway up the mountain.
