Chapter 72 Tied to death
"This spirit pattern fish is in good condition, just provide such a little aura, let's go back to the profiteer just now in a while!" Huang Dwarf suddenly said angrily, an hour has passed, and the spirit pattern fish has been consumed.
Ma Ruyu glared at Huang Shorty and whispered, "Senior Brother Huang, don't shout. ”
In fact, she had already digested the spirit pattern fish, but she never showed it, and she was confronting people, so she couldn't show weakness.
Huang Xiaozi immediately understood, laughed awkwardly, and said weakly: "Then what should we do......?
"Hehe, don't let it, continue to hold on!" The young man surnamed Qian heard the movement here, and immediately sneered.
Dong Xiaoping ignored him and said to the two people in front of him: "It's okay, there is a way." ”
Then he turned his head and said loudly to the people watching the excitement: "Which senior brother and sister have spiritual food on them?
He does have a tonic elixir on his body, but it is really wasteful to use it for cultivation, a pill of tonic elixir generally recovers ten yuan of spiritual energy, and spending the same amount of money to buy spiritual food, you can get a hundred yuan of spiritual energy.
Who look at me, I look at you, but they don't have spiritual food, and a young boy who reacts quickly immediately said: "Wait, my friend has it." ”
Then he ran down the mountain, and when he came back, he was carrying a large bag of spiritual food, just enough for the three of them to take for a day.
"How much does it cost here?"
The young man hesitated and said, "A total of one money and four, no, one money and two will do." ”
He was afraid that Dong Xiaoping would be too expensive and wouldn't buy it, so he said a not too outrageous number, but he still made money, he bought it from the vendor for only one penny of Mithril, and he earned two cents of Mithril in just a quarter of an hour, and he was already satisfied.
Dong Xiaoping simply paid the money, and then distributed the spiritual food to the two Huang Ma.
The young man got the sweetness, so he said to the five people opposite, "Do you want to buy spiritual food? ”
"Get out. ”
The young man surnamed Qian will be in a very unhappy mood, how can he willingly let others make money.
The young man did not dare to say anything, and left with a little disappointment.
After the two of them got the spiritual food, they cultivated with peace of mind.
Ma Ruyu can see from Dong Xiaoping's clothes and monthly money that he is very rich, so he doesn't feel too sorry for him. Huang Xiaozi had never been so extravagant in cultivating simply with spiritual food, and he was a little excited, and he forgot to feel sorry for money.
Until dark, neither side got out of the way.
The five people on the opposite side didn't have much spiritual food, and after noon, they could only watch Dong Xiaoping and the three of them cultivate, and they couldn't leave, which was quite a nest.
There are so many people passing by, and what happened today has already spread throughout Yuling Peak, if they admit defeat and leave, they will become everyone's laughing stock the next day.
"Okay, you've got it! See you tomorrow!"
The young man surnamed Qian said hatefully, and left with everyone.
This is not counting them admitting defeat, after dark, Yu Lingfeng almost no longer produces aura, and there is no need to stay here anymore.
After they left, Dong Xiaoping said: "I'm fighting with them today, presumably tomorrow they won't trouble you, but if you have any difficulties, come to me." ”
Huang Xiaozi said: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”
Ma Ruyu said: "Senior Brother Dong, be careful, they won't trouble me and Senior Brother Huang, and they will definitely stare at you." ”
The three of them got up to leave, and when they were about to walk to the gate of Yuling Peak, Dong Xiaoping stopped, pointed to the gate in the distance, and said, "Look, is that Liu Qiang and those two women, the envoy of Yuling Peak?"
Monk Yang and her assistant could be seen talking to Liu Qiang, looking very happy.
"Yes, that's them. The yellow dwarf craned his neck to look at it, and then said affirmatively.
The three people at the gate quickly finished talking, and at the end, the monk surnamed Yang gave Liu Qiang something, Liu Qiang bent down again and again to thank him, and then the three of them left.
"It turned out to be a trap!"
Dong Xiaoping suddenly realized, he felt that the one who didn't know whether it was Lao Mo or Lao Hua looked familiar, wasn't it the old beggar in the cemetery?
Today's tax evasion is most likely a trap set by Liu Qiang in collusion with the surname Yang, who specially deceived people and fined them.
Some people in the cemetery must have colluded with Liu Qiang to help him do the trick of leading people to evade taxes, and then the person surnamed Yang was fined inside.
This Liu Qiang is really a talent, there are so many crooked ideas!
So he told the other two about this suspicion, so as not to be fooled again, and the two of them were shocked when they heard it, but they didn't expect Liu Qiang, who worked together, to be so powerful.
After the three of them left Yuling Peak, they went back to their respective homes.
After Dong Xiaoping went home, he lay on the bed and thought about what happened today.
This trip to Yuling Peak seemed meaningless, but he didn't think so.
Stuffy cultivation is unacceptable, and if you don't have a certain amount of experience, you will make very low-level mistakes, such as the real person who allowed everyone to set up a spirit gathering array on the Bathing Spirit Peak.
At least you have to know how other people cultivate? At least you have to know how other people make money, right? Don't make jokes about "why don't you eat minced meat?"
He has the advantage of having time control, which allows him to have enough time to think about the problems he is currently facing, and to make better use of this, he must accumulate enough knowledge and experience.
Otherwise, it is useless to have unlimited time, not to have the relevant knowledge and experience.
Moreover, today is just a little bit of money, a little bit of time, and it is completely harmless for him.
“...... The next thing to do is to find an excuse to quit the errand in the fishing grounds, and then buy a lot of high-grade spiritual food, and then practice behind closed doors every day, and strive to get out of the customs within half a year!"
Originally, he thought that the income from one or two Mithril errands a month was not bad, two or three times higher than when the income was at its best, of course he had to do it, but he didn't expect it to be so tiring, and he would spend a whole day working every three days.
He thought about it and felt that time was more important to him than money at the moment, so he decided to resign.
With a plan in mind, he slept comfortably. Because he didn't have aura spiritual food, he didn't use time control.
He slept for a while before getting up, and after breakfast, he went to the fishing farm to find Tian Qi's family to resign.
When he arrived at the fishing grounds, it was already late, and the docks were already in full swing. He suddenly realized that something was wrong, why a man was tied high on a pillar.
He didn't go to Tian Qi's house first, but walked up to that person and looked up, isn't this Lin Jinshi kid?
I saw that he was dressed in tattered shorts and shorts, with whip marks everywhere on his body, his skin was blue from the cold, and his head was lowered, and he didn't even know that Dong Xiaoping was standing in front of him.
"Lin boy, why are you tied up here?"
Dong Xiaoping had a slight guess in his heart, but he still wanted to ask.
Lin Jinshi slowly opened his eyes, and saw that it was Dong Xiaoping, his eyes flashed with a hint of brilliance, but they dimmed again in an instant, and said, "I stole fish and was caught......"
Dong Xiaoping was speechless and thought to himself: "Why don't you eat white food, or do thorns, or steal fish? Why don't you do something good?"
So he said, "Then how are they going to punish you? Did you say? Is it tied up for a day?"
Lin Jinshi laughed miserably: "I said, tie it to death." ”
"Is it so serious? Then you still steal fish?" Dong Xiaoping was taken aback, "Can't you make good money?"
Lin Jinshi suddenly said angrily: "Don't I want to make good money? Three days ago, I worked for him for a day and found him two spirit pattern fish, but he didn't pay a penny after freezing for a day!"
Could it be that Liu Qiang's "stripping method" has been promoted?
Dong Xiaoping looked at the dock, and sure enough, half of the workers were in short shirts and shorts, indicating that at least one gray monk was using this method.
"Why didn't he send it?" he asked.
He can understand this method, but it is strange and unreasonable not to pay wages!
Lin Jinshi sneered and said: "What did he say that if he worked under him on the first day, he had to hand over the income of the day as a deposit, and he would return it after working for a month, and he would not cheat money in a different way!"
As soon as he said this, Dong Xiaoping understood that this monk wanted to tie the worker firmly to him, and the worker was reluctant to deposit money, so he could only enter his group every time.
This guy is so bad!
"Well, then you can find another mage to work on, and he's not the only one. ”
Lin Jinshi said hatefully: "No, I will take back my salary from him!"
Dong Xiaoping was quite speechless and said: "He has asked you to take off your clothes, and you still dare to steal fish under his nose, isn't this looking for death?...... Anyway, I just gave you four taels of silver not long ago, why did you run out so quickly?"
Lin Jinshi shook his head and said: "I didn't use it up, I spent two taels of silver to bury my mother, but the remaining two taels of silver are not enough to pay back Sister Huang's boiling blood grass, so I will make money." ”
Dong Xiaoping didn't expect that after so long, he still remembered the boiling blood grass that Huang Qing helped him out, so he said: "She is very rich now, and she got a hundred taels of silver last month, so you don't have to pay her back." ”
Lin Jinshi heard that Huang Qing was not short of money, and there was a faint expression of disappointment on his face, and he said in a low voice: "Even if he doesn't need it, I have to pay her back." ”
Dong Xiaoping sighed, feeling some sympathy for him in his heart, so he walked to the dock and went to find the monk in charge of Lin Jinshi, intending to save him.
Of course, he can directly put Lin Jinshi down, but this is undoubtedly tantamount to a direct conflict with others, so he plans to talk about it first to see if others will let him go.
The monk was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, chubby, with small squinting eyes, and a shrewdness of a merchant in his gestures, and should have been born into a merchant family.
Dong Xiaoping found him and explained his intention, he saw that Dong Xiaoping was dressed extraordinarily and was very enthusiastic, so he immediately ordered the workers to suspend work, accompanied Dong Xiaoping to Lin Jinshi, and untied the rope for him with his own hands.
Dong Xiaoping saw that the small-eyed monk was so cooperative, and thanked him again and again.
"Phew!"
The two were chatting happily, when Lin Jinshi soaked his saliva and spit out at the small-eyed monk, if he hadn't reacted quickly and blocked it with his sleeve, the saliva would have flown to his face.
