Chapter 25: Cause Confusion
After carefully liquidating the harvest, Jiaozi added up to 350 taels of silver, plus about 50 taels of silver and a few taels of broken gold. In this regard, Ning Yufei has no real feeling. Yu Lianyi was different, she knew that one tael of silver was enough for a person to live for a month! And the value of gold was ten times that of silver, and these added up to more than four hundred taels, which was several times more than her own savings!
You must know that Yu Lianyi is a Zhuanglou Oiran, so she naturally earns a lot of money, but her daily expenses are also very large, so she only has a surplus of one hundred taels of snowflake silver. The robber leader on a small hill has a net worth several times more than her, which undoubtedly shows that in this era, only the best choice to make a fortune is to occupy the mountain as the king!
Yu Lianyi first put the gold in her arms, and then stuffed a pile of Jiaozi into her sleeve, but the last few ingots of silver, she thought it was too heavy, and stuffed it to Ning Yufei.
After distributing the spoils, Yu Lianyi was not enough, but after searching the whole house, she couldn't find any more treasures, so she had to give up.
The two of them searched the whole house for about half an hour, and it was noon, and they were both a little hungry.
But the door has been closed from the outside, and they will make a lot of noise when they want to go out.
Most of Yu Lianyi's experience in the rivers and lakes comes from hearsay, and when she faces it in person, she has no idea. As a historical researcher, Ning Yufei has read many books, but he has never applied them in practice. Fortunately, he is a modern person, and at this time, it is easy to think of the strategy that often appears in TV dramas, that is, fishing in troubled waters.
As soon as he told Yu Lianyi about his idea, he immediately agreed, and the two of them got busy in the house.
They piled all the bedding in the innermost room, poured kerosene on it, and took out the fire breakers in the room—which were found in every house—and set the flammable items on fire. Then, they returned to the door of the house and used their abilities to become invisible again.
This is Ning Yufei's battle, if the two of them want to leave here safely, they must create chaos, and to create chaos, fire attack is the best choice.
However, the whole room was filled with smoke and the room temperature increased a lot. Although Ning Yufei and the two have become invisible, this is a trick that can be counted, and they can see each other.
Ning Yufei and the others had already prepared a moist cloth to cover their mouths and noses, Ning Yufei looked at the beauty in front of him with a thin layer of sweat on her face, her eyes were squinting, and her eyelashes fluttered, which was beautiful.
There was a lot of noise outside, and all kinds of noise continued, but I could still hear some sentences connected by the chaotic words "It's on fire~", "Come on, put out the fire~", "Go and carry water~".
There was already a mess outside the door.
There were already minions who went to report to Zhou Tong and Li Zhong who were having luncheon, and there were Zhang Qing and Yang Lin next to them. Just before the two masters of Peach Blossom Mountain made a decision, this minion ran in a hurry, and he didn't pay attention to the occasion, and immediately interrupted the promise that Li Zhong was about to spit out, and he was about to get angry.
"Chief, it's not good! The second leader's house is on fire, and now the brothers are carrying water, but no one dares to go in!"
Zhou Tong stood up with a spirit.
"Why don't you dare?" he was a little excited, knowing that all his possessions were hidden there!
"It was ordered by you personally, and no one is allowed to enter without your permission. ”
"This ...... Then don't you go quickly, go and call someone to rush in to put out the fire!" Remembering that he seemed to have really given such an order, he was embarrassed to teach people. Minions quickly stepped back.
"This thing is a little strange, how could there be a sudden fire?"
Li Zhong spoke at this time. He was a middle-aged man in his thirties, tall, with piercing eyes, narrow cheeks, a slightly yellowish complexion, and a few wisps of mustache clinging to his chin, like a tiger's whiskers. This person used to perform in the rivers and lakes, and was later chased and beaten by the prince of the government, beat people in a fit of anger, ran to the foot of Peach Blossom Mountain, and met Zhou Tong. These two fought, Li Zhong was better, but he didn't play hard, but the two made a friendship, worshiped and became brothers with different surnames, and since then he has broken out of the name of 'fighting tiger general', of course, he has never really fought tigers.
Zhou Tong is a reckless person, except for being very careful in front of money and beauty, he is not very clear about any other aspects, such as observing words and feelings.
"Big brother, do you think it could be these guys? We are all good brothers, only these outsiders, this fire for no reason has never happened before, why did they have an accident as soon as they came?"
He didn't care about the faces of these people who had become iron-blue, reasoning to himself, and thinking that he was right. Li Zhong is much more stable than him.
"Brother Xian Hugh wants to talk nonsense, it's just a coincidence, I believe in the sincerity of a few heroes here, but it seems that God has foreshadowed it, this alliance matter, let's slow it down first. ”
It can be seen that Li Zhong is also suspicious of these people, but he just doesn't want to have a bad relationship with the forces behind them. Hearing this, the three of them knew that the operation had failed, and they were depressed. They glanced at each other, and they both saw the unwillingness in each other's eyes. In their hearts, they suspect that the two brothers are directing and acting themselves, pretending to be victims, in an attempt to occupy more in the subsequent division of interests.
Hmph, it's really greedy, and I don't look at my own ability! Several people are angry in their hearts, but they can't attack at this time.
"Now that the master of the village has responded, let's go back to the staff first. "They don't think there's any point in staying any longer, and they're very aggrieved.
"Wait!" Zhou Tong was about to go out, but when he heard a few people say goodbye, he came back and stopped the three of them. "You are guests, our brothers are really entertaining, and that is also for the adults outside! Now that my house has been burned, you are leaving like this?"
These words have been made clear, and Zhou Tong directly determined that this fire was related to the three of them. Li Zhong stood aside, rubbing a teacup in his hand, and did not make a sound.
"Hmph! The old lady has been walking the rivers and lakes for so long, she must admit that she has done it! If you have done it, you have done it, and if you haven't done it, you haven't done it!"
It was Sun Erniang who spoke, her voice was thick, her speech was sonorous, and she was full of momentum, even though she was a woman, but she didn't let her eyebrows go.
Besides, who in the rivers and lakes doesn't know what your couple's idea is in Mengzhou! You still dare to say such big things!"
If it were Sun Erniang, who had a masculine face and good facial features, he would definitely make Zhou Tong happy, but at this moment, he was hanging on his property, and out of anger, he didn't care that the other party was a woman at the moment.
How can Sun Erniang be good-tempered?
was furious at the moment, and he was about to slap Zhou Tong, but fortunately Zhang Qing stopped him.
"Let's go, let's take a look!" but it was Yang Lin, a sturdy man, who was more concerned about the overall situation, and did not want the mission to fail completely, but also wanted to save it.
Zhou Tong snorted and went out first, the three followed, Li Zhong thought for a while, and went out with him.
Outside the stone house, there are hundreds of minions, or running, or carrying basins and splashing water, or carrying buckets, in a mess. But it was just outside, and no one dared to open the door. The fire had been burning for a while, but it was only pouring water from the outside, of course, just raising the soup to stop the boiling.
This made Ning Yufei and the others who were hiding inside, they couldn't wait for someone to open the door, and of course they couldn't get out. So Ning Yufei simply unlocked the ability temporarily, but the temperature in the room was getting higher and higher, and the mist from the water poured in outside was getting bigger and bigger, and the two of them were in dire straits, so they could only complain. Ning Yufei thought even more depressedly: Could it be that when I returned to the Song Dynasty, I didn't do anything important, and I was burned to death by myself?
"Why don't you open the door and go in to put out the fire!"
Suddenly, a majestic voice sounded outside, which almost brought tears to Ning Yufei's eyes, and they hurriedly activated the 'Dual World' ability, and the two hid again.
"Bang!" the door was kicked open, and a group of people with various containers, filled with water, splashed directly inside.
Ning Yufei and the others were not spared in the corner, and they were splashed
