Chapter 40 is not rhetoric
Feeling that there was something in this, Shang Shuqing seemed to be a little worried that his brother would suffer a loss, and he was afraid that his brother would agree in a hurry, so he hurriedly asked: "Little grievance?
Lan Ruoting nodded when he heard this, he was also worried about this. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Niu Youdao said indifferently: "It's not a grievance, it's really a limited amount of resources that the prince can use, I may do something unscrupulous to achieve the goal, and I hope that the prince can cooperate, don't blame." ”
Shang Shuqing: "The so-called soldiers are not tired of cheating, it is naturally understandable that the Taoist master will use some means, but if it is too hurtful, it is easy to trap my brother..."
Niu Youdao raised his hand and interrupted: "The county lord can rest assured, the prince can also rest assured, Niu hereby promises that he will never let the prince bear the reputation of hurting heaven and reason, nor will he make the consequences unbearable for the prince, in short, he will not do anything harmful to the prince, if he violates this promise, the prince will not admit that he has anything to do with me." ”
Saying this, a few people were a little relieved, but they still couldn't believe it, how could Feng Lingbo borrow troops?
Lan Ruoting, who was silently thinking, said loudly: "Master Dao, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to be in Guangyi County for too long, and I don't know what the reaction will be from the imperial court." There is also the Song family's side, Dao Ye killed Song Yanqing, but stayed in Guangyi County, the goal is too obvious, and the Song family is afraid that they will do something unfavorable to Dao Ye. ”
"The court is easy to handle, the sacrifice of the dozens of guards, the prince can be sentimental, sad and sad, reluctant to leave, stay for a few more days can be regarded as the past. Niu Youdao didn't feel guilty at all about the death of those guards, "As for the Song family, I am going to solve this matter, and I have my own way to deal with it!"
Shang Dynasty Zong bowed, "According to what the Taoist master said, I don't know when the master will set off, what preparations will be made for this trip?"
Niu Youdao: "Without further ado, set off to the county town overnight." In addition, please send twenty clever guards to accompany me, and then I need some property, 10,000 gold coins!"
"Ten thousand gold coins..."Shang Chaozong and Shang Shuqing looked embarrassed, this is really not a small amount, this money is enough for hundreds of people and horses in a few years.
The brother and sister couldn't figure it out, why did they want so much money, could it be that they used this money to exchange for people? Although 10,000 gold coins was a lot, if it was said that it was obviously not enough to exchange it for a force that was enough to gain a foothold in Cangwu County, Feng Lingbo would not agree, and people would not be so poor that they would give you 10,000 gold coins.
Lan Ruoting smiled bitterly: "Don't hide it from Dao Ye, if you go to Cangwu County, it should be no problem to get together 10,000 gold coins, but at present, the total number of gold coins on hand is less than 1,000 gold coins, and 10,000 gold coins really can't be taken out." ”
Niu Youdao waved his hand, "Forget it if you don't have it, money is a trivial matter, I'll find another way when I get to the county town, first take a hundred gold coins for me as an emergency." ”
Several people looked at each other, even for their background, 10,000 gold coins is not a small amount, I don't know how this person went to the county seat of Guangyi County to get 10,000 gold coins, is this going to rob with his skills or is he going to rob it? Don't make trouble in Guangyi County to annoy Feng Lingbo, people who can come up with such a sum of money are definitely not ordinary people in Guangyi County, and it will definitely not be simple.
It is true that he can't take out 10,000 gold coins, just now Lan Ruoting was a little suspicious that Niu Youdao wanted to abscond with his belongings, and when he heard about the 100 gold coins, he instantly depreciated a hundred times, and immediately realized that he was living the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and his skills would not be so hard to spend so much money for 100 gold coins.
Looking at the meaning of Shang Chaozong, Lan Ruoting bowed his head and said: "Dao Master, wait a minute, I'll go and get it, and arrange the entourage by the way." ”
Niu Youdao immediately explained: "Remember, avoid Qu Wuyi and his party, don't let them find out, and leave me some time to maneuver." ”
"Understood!" Lan Ruoting arched his hand and walked away quickly to arrange this matter.
And the Shang brothers and sisters were really curious about how Niu Youdao borrowed people, and Shang Shuqing finally couldn't help but ask, "Dao Ye, can't you reveal it?"
Niu Youdao said: "It's not clear yet, the specific situation will be dealt with at the right time, and we'll see when the time comes." ”
It's this untruthful and unreliable look again, Shang Chaozong was a little worried, but he had seen the other party break his back path before, and saw that Niu Youdao's insight was extraordinary, and he already looked at it highly.
Yuan Gang, who was silent on the side, suddenly said loudly: "Dao Master, the two confessions of the Shangqing Sect said that the presiding Yuanfang is a bear demon. ”
"Uh..."Niu Youdao looked back in amazement, "Demon, goblin?"
Shang Chaozong continued: "That's right, the people below have reviewed it, and the real presiding Yuanfang has passed away, and the current presiding Yuanfang is a bear that the monks of Nanshan Temple picked up and adopted from the mountains two hundred years ago, and now it has gained some Taoism and changed into Yuanfang." This Nanshan Temple has nothing to do with Shangqing Sect, it was Song Yanqing who came to fight with him before, forcing this bear demon to succumb. ”
Niu Youdao's eyes flashed, goblin, or bear demon? He was interested, although he knew that there were demons in this world, but it was the first time he had bumped into it, and he had never seen it, so he naturally wanted to see it, and Yuan Gang's reminder just now obviously had the same interest, and he also wanted to see it. However, he has other important things to do now, and it is not the time to study the monster slowly, so he has to advise: "Lord Wang, don't let this goblin goblin, wait for me to go back and talk to him well." ”
Shang Chaozong smiled: "Okay, help Dao Ye keep it!"
After a while, Lan Ruoting came, a money bag was presented, and twenty horses were arranged.
After the two sides conspired again, Shang Chaozong and others went out of Nanshan Temple to deliberately make some movement to attract people's attention, not only to attract Qu Wuyi and his party, but also to attract the eyes of the imperial court who might be secretly monitoring in order to follow Niu Youdao's intentions, and everything they did was to cover Niu Youdao's departure.
And Niu Youdao led Yuan Gang and twenty people and horses to quietly descend the mountain in the night.
Outside Nanshan Temple, there were several braziers, the flames were blazing, and Shang Chaozong and others seemed to be burning paper in order to commemorate the sacrificed guards.
Halfway through, a personal guard came and whispered beside Shang Chaozong: "Lord Wang, the people have left smoothly." ”
"Hmm!" Shang Chaozong nodded slightly, threw the paper money in his hand into the brazier one after another, and at the same time looked at Lan Ruoting on the side and said: "I don't know if what he said is true or not, let alone if it can be done, and I can't understand if I ask. ”
Lan Ruoting hesitated and said: "This person is doing things, looking at the old way, the city government is really not like a person of this age, it seems that he doesn't want people to find out about himself, he doesn't feel like a person on the right path, I really don't know why Mr. Dongguo's vision would accept such a disciple." But the county lord seemed to believe in him. ”
Shang Shuqing: "Judging from all aspects, if he has a problem, he will not kill Song Yanqing." Brother, sir, we don't have much choice now, and it won't be much to lose if he tries it. ”
Shang Chaozong threw a stack of paper money into the brazier, looked at the rising ashes, and sighed lightly: "Let's wait and see!"
Inside the city, the lights were dim, and a figure came from the street, walked to the outside of a restaurant, and looked up at the signboard, it was Chen Guishuo.
The guy stepped forward warmly and greeted, "Guest officer, how many?"
Chen Guishuo ignored him, pushed him aside, and rushed directly to the counter, staring at the old shopkeeper behind the counter.
The old shopkeeper looked up, was stunned for a moment, and then turned his head to the guy who came up to entangle, and the guy had to retreat.
The time was late, it was almost closed, and there was still a table of guests upstairs, the old shopkeeper looked around, made a gesture of invitation to Chen Guishuo, and led Chen Guishuo to a secluded room in the back hall.
As soon as the door closed, the old shopkeeper looked Chen Guishuo up and down, "Is there something wrong?"
In fact, Chen Guishuo didn't know who the old shopkeeper was, and he didn't even know the name of the other party, but he had come here to contact supplies when he followed Song Yanqing through here before, and he probably guessed that this restaurant might be a point or eyeliner arranged by the Song family here, and it was not surprising that a powerful person like the Song family had this arrangement.
In fact, although he and Xu Yitian were disciples of the Shangqing Sect, they were gradually absorbed by the Song family into eyeliner, and the Song family promised a future, even if the Shangqing Sect collapsed, they were not afraid. Song Yanqing was killed in such a big matter, it was impossible for him not to report it to the Song family.
"Something happened. Chen Guishuo slumped in his chair and sighed.
The old shopkeeper frowned, "What's wrong?"
Chen Guishuo shook his head heavily and said, "My senior brother Song Yanqing is dead. ”
"Ah!" the old shopkeeper was taken aback, and asked urgently, "What's the matter?"
"We went to Nanshan Temple...... Chen Guishuo told the incident in detail, and after accepting the old shopkeeper's inquiry, he said: "You want to find a way to send the news back to the capital, I have to rush back to Shangqing Sect to report the news, help me arrange a horse, it is best to help me get an identity, so that I can transfer at the post station along the way!"
This series of things was quickly arranged by the old shopkeeper, and it was handled extremely quickly.
After letting Chen Guishuo go, the old shopkeeper went to the secret room of the restaurant again, quickly wrote a secret report, and then grabbed a bird of prey with a dark body and two golden wings from the cage on the side, and stuffed the secret letter into the small empty cylinder on the raptor's feet.
The bird's name is 'Goldwing', and it is remarkable in terms of speed and staying power. The most amazing thing is that this bird can find its eggs no matter where it is, no matter how far away it is, it can identify the exact direction to find it, so the 'golden-winged' female bird is domesticated and used to deliver letters, which is expensive. As for the male bird, he does not have this ability, and can only be used for mating, which is not valuable.
After loading the letter, a piece of cloth covered the 'golden wings' in his hand, the old shopkeeper hurried out of the secret room, came to a room without lights, pushed open the window, tore off the cloth, and waved the 'golden wings' out of the window, and the birds quickly fluttered their wings away and disappeared into the vast night......
At dawn the next day, Shang Chaozong and others went out of Nanshan Temple and came to the tomb of the guards who died in battle again to worship, with a sad expression.
This is to cooperate with what Niu Youdao said, and it will be dragged here for a few days.
When the golden light of the rising sun broke through the mountains and forests, a personal guard came to report and informed him that Niu Youdao was arranging the accompanying personal guards all the way, and wanted to build a temporary communication channel between the county town of Guangyi and the Shang Dynasty Sect, so as to keep the news flowing here.
The reason is very simple, a horse is unbearable for a long gallop, and it needs to change horses to maintain the efficient transmission rhythm of messages, and Niu Youdao has obviously planned this in advance.
Lan Ruoting frowned slightly when he heard the news, "It's not rhetoric, this person is really not simple!"
