16Once you are liberated, what will be the next?

After promising Mr. Bai to help, Lu Yuanwai generously asked people to take a hundred taels of gold and give it to Mr. Bai.

Mr. Bai refused and politely said goodbye.

Seeing this, Lu Yuanwai knew the stubbornness of their family, and he never forced it.

After knowing the matter of the "Thousand Miles of Hunger and Death", Lu Yuanwai was in no mood to talk, and directly served tea to the guests.

Mr. Bai was also interested in taking the initiative to leave.

When Mr. Bai left the Lu Mansion, Yeming felt a lot more relaxed.

The pressure on it was too great.

Mr. Bai did not go home directly, but went to visit friends.

I first went to the door of a scholar and met people.

Later, the two traveled together to visit other friends.

By noon, five people had gathered.

The five of them had a good conversation together, chose a restaurant that looked quite elegant, and had lunch together.

Ye Ming looked down on Mr. Bai's four friends, without him, none of these four people had a sense of righteousness.

Even one of them has a "sour gas" on his body, thinking that he is a rotten Confucian.

The facts are similar to what Yeming guessed, a few people talked, and the rotten Confucian's words and deeds seemed extremely pedantic, just the trivial matter of the five people sitting down, they had to compete for seniority before they were willing to sit down.

I really don't know how Mr. Bai became friends with this kind of person.

It can be seen that Mr. Bai is very concerned about the affairs of the imperial court and has been discussing this matter with several people.

More specifically, Mr. Bai is understanding the current situation in the court.

Because he teaches in Lao Zhang Village, the news is relatively closed, so he has to ask his friends about current affairs.

These scholars are all masters who like to talk loudly, and they will say whatever Mr. Bai asks.

It's just that there are a lot of self-opinions in words, which is easy to mislead people.

Through their conversations, Yeming also learned that today's Xu Kingdom is really not peaceful.

In several devastated state capitals, there began to be rebellions among displaced people.

The court is in a situation where the lord is suspicious and the ministers are overturned, and in the face of small local rebellions, there is quite a style of letting it become big.

Local bandits are also increasing.

At the same time, rumors of various evil and evil disasters have also begun to spread, and it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood.

Fortunately, the Liang people in the north and the Fan people in the west don't seem to be at peace inside, and they don't have the idea of fighting Xu Guo.

So in terms of external problems, the situation is not too bad.

It is said that Xiucai does not go out, and he knows the affairs of the world, and at this time, it seems that what he said is true.

Through the high-pitched conversation between them, Ye Ming had a general impression of the dynasty he was in for the first time.

Mr. Bai and the others chatted until almost dusk, and then they left.

I thought that there would be nothing more today, but Mr. Bai saw an injustice.

Mr. Bai saw a group of people in front of him shouting something, many people were watching, and he could hear the scolding of the evil slaves.

"You don't have long eyes, you have torn our son's clothes, and you just want to pay for a cow, and you dare to refuse!"

Mr. Bai squeezed into the crowd and saw a richly dressed boy looking at the few people in front of him with a disgusted expression, and the house slaves around him were scolding them.

Mr. Bai, the few people who were scolded, also knew that it was the group of bounty hunters who entered the city together yesterday.

At this time, a house slave was pulling the hunters' old cattle and wanted to pull them away.

There was a man on the hunter's side who would not let the old cow be pulled away, and several other hunters also stopped him.

Although several people were armed with weapons, they didn't dare to really do anything, even if the evil slaves on the opposite side were whipped with whips, they just endured it.

Seeing this, Mr. Bai asked others the reason for the incident.

It was indeed the hunters' fault that their ox cart accidentally cut the hem of Zhao Gongzi's clothes.

They were at fault in the face of Zhao Gongzi's domestic slaves, and their confidence was seriously insufficient, and they expressed their willingness to compensate 300 yuan to make up for Zhao Gongzi's losses.

But Zhao Gongzi didn't accept it, and Zhao Gongzi, who had always been used to doing evil, bluntly said that he wanted to take away their old cow.

This old cow is the treasure of a group of people, how can you give it up?

As a result, the two sides are at a stalemate.

Although Zhao Gongzi is squirrel, he is not unwise, seeing that this group of people are all with guys, he does not come forward, and he is all murdered by evil slaves.

Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, Mr. Bai stepped in.

It's just that Zhao Gongzi doesn't give face, just a showman, and he doesn't care about it.

Mr. Bai also knew that he was soft-spoken, and said on the spot that he knew Lu Yuanwai.

No one in this Yanhua Mansion dared to have a relationship with Lu Yuanwai, and seeing that what Mr. Bai said was very natural, everyone did not doubt it.

Zhao Gongzi also knew his own catties and didn't dare to go against Lu Yuanwai.

Mr. Bai coordinated and asked the bounty hunters to pay 350 yuan to compensate Zhao Gongzi.

Zhao Gongzi also agreed, but at this time, Zhao Gongzi's house slaves whispered to Zhao Gongzi.

After hearing this, Zhao Gongzi nodded again and again.

I saw that Zhao Gongzi ordered someone to bring twenty taels of silver and put it in front of the bounty hunters.

bluntly said that they would spend money to buy their old cow.

Seeing this, the bounty hunters hesitated.

They really value Lao Niu very much, but the other party is willing to pay twenty taels of silver......

In the end, the silver went to the bounty hunters, and the old cow went to Zhao Gongzi.

Mr. Bai didn't say anything when he saw that both parties were willing to do so.

For some reason, Yeming always felt that after the hunters agreed to sell the old cow, the old cow seemed to cry.

It's just that looking at it again, everything is as usual with Lao Niu, nothing special.

Yeming felt the killing intent of Lao Niu from Zhao Gongzi.

It seems that this Zhao Gongzi bought the old cow, not because he valued the labor of the old cow, but because he wanted to kill it to vent his anger.

Ye Ming had no doubt that if it weren't for the fact that the laws of Xu Guo clearly stipulated that cattle could not be slaughtered at will, this Zhao Gongzi would have killed cattle on the street.

But looking at this situation, it is estimated that if you bring it back to the house, I am afraid that you will go directly into the back kitchen of the Zhao family.

The hunters, who had the money, did not go to see how the old cow was doing, but took the money in their pockets and left happily.

Mr. Bai also went home.

At this time, the sun had set, and Yeming came out of the jade pendant, turned into a wisp of black smoke, got into the tip of Lao Niu's horns, and followed Zhao Gongzi and the others back to the house.

On the way home, the house slave was very vicious, whipping the old cow again and again, and the old cow's skin was opened.

Zhao Gongzi felt puzzled, took the whip himself, and whipped it a few more times.

There are also stone lions guarding the gate of Zhao's mansion, and it stands to reason that the current night light will not be able to enter.

Fortunately, Zhao Gongzi didn't plan to let Lao Niu enter the main gate, so he directly ordered someone to pull Lao Niu from the side door to the back kitchen, and ordered him to eat a whole cow banquet tonight.

The house slave pulled the old cow with a smile on his face.

Yeming has no evil power on his body, as long as he doesn't go through the main gate, he won't cause the suppression of the lion in the townhouse, and he will get in smoothly.

When he arrived at the back kitchen of Zhao's mansion, the evil slave instructed the cook to sharpen his knife and prepare to kill the cow.

He himself took the dry tobacco pouch and went to rest in the pavilion beside him......

Yeming came out of the tip of the old cow's horns, thinking about how to get the old cow out.

Of course, it is not kind, but intends to get back the farmland in the village and contribute to the village, so that it can also improve its own incense in disguise.

Ye Ming was just about to stun the evil slaves and cooks, when he suddenly heard an old voice sound:

"I'm about to reach my limit, so I don't have to bother."

The sudden sound startled Yeming, and a surprised face appeared in the body of the black smoke ball, looking at the old cow.

"Are you talking?"

The old cow did not move, but a voice came from it.

"It's me."

"You're a sperm?"

Yeming was very surprised, this old cow was actually an old cow who became a spirit!

"No, if you become a sperm, why haven't you been discovered by the Chenghuang Yincha?

Why is it safe to face so many treasures in the city that drive away evil spirits and ward off evil? ”

"I was turned into a fine by a master of the Daomen, and I practiced the authentic Taoism, not the evil law, and I am not afraid of those things that drive away evil and ward off evil."

"So you deliberately knocked over the cage I was hiding in yesterday?"

"I'm a little curious about why you have no evil power in your body, so I tried it."

"Then what are you talking to me doing now?"

"I have been with the master for many years, and I have seen countless demons and evils, but they are all not a pity to die, a demon like you is really the only one I have seen in my life, so I want to give you a chance."

"Serendipity......

Yes, yes, you're right, I'm the kindest.

Don't look at me as a demon, but I am determined to save the world, and I am on the right path. ”

Yeming hurriedly said that he was a good devil.

Lao Niu just said:

"Things in the world don't depend on what you think or say, but only what you do, which is why I am willing to give you the opportunity."

The opportunity that Lao Niu said was his own pair of horns, a golden pill containing pure Taoism, and the Taoism written on the cowhide, called "Green Cow Ginseng Tongdeed".

As the old cow spit out the golden pill, removed the horns, and tore off the cowhide, its already weak breath of life suddenly almost dissipated.

"You go, I'm at the end of my life, and this body will be left to these people."

"Wait, I want to ask you, why are you so powerful, why would you help those people pull the cart?"

"The leader is the descendant of the master who ignited me, I wanted to have a support in the twilight of my life, so I became an old cow in his family.

But I didn't want to, and I lost to a mere twenty taels of silver......"

"Actually, you can keep the whole body, I can help you."

"No need, in the past, Zhuang Zuxian went, left in the world, for the birds, beasts, insects and pigs to eat, his disciples heard this, all said, 'Born in heaven and earth, return to heaven and earth, get what it is.'"

So the disciples clapped their palms and laughed, and they dispersed.

I am leaving today, and my remnants can be exchanged for a full meal for the world, and I think there is also the legacy of Zhuang Zu. ”

After that, the old cow fell to the ground, and there was no more sound.

Seeing this, the body of the black smoke ball trembled slightly.

It has no heart, and it doesn't know what kind of attitude it should show at this time.

Half a sound, just sneered at the old cow's relics a few times:

"Old cow, old cow, born as a field guest, died as a belly meal, once liberated, what about the next life?"

After speaking, he took the golden pill, ox horns, and cowhide and escaped out of the Zhao Mansion.

At this time, the people in the back kitchen of the Zhao Mansion had sharpened their knives and came to the courtyard.

But he found that the old cow had fallen under the tree, and that he had lost his horns and a piece of cowhide.

The cooks were puzzled, but they only thought that the king of the stove liked it, and they paid tribute to the king of the stove, and began to deal with the remnants of the old cow......
