A knife in love

Chapter 3343

Ye Fengchun saw that the monks refused to leave, although he was cruel and decisive, but because Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan were standing beside him, he didn't dare to be too arrogant, so he had to say a few Fusang dialects to the abbots and abbots hypocritically.A Songhe Tower employee stood beside Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan, and translated what Ye Fengchun said into Chinese.It turned out that Ye Fengchun said to the monks: "Since all masters want to help the next one, I thank you in advance. But we gathered four to five hundred people in the backyard of Xiangji Temple, and the food we prepared earlier could not last for a few days, so I have a merciless one." Please, all masters, move the rice and noodles food from their temples to Xiangji Temple for everyone to eat. Take out some silver and give it to friends who bravely killed the enemy. Otherwise, we will starve to death before the robbers come to attack the mountain again. In addition, there is a saying in Middle-earth, which is called under the great reward, there must be a brave man. If you want everyone to fight the robbers to the death, you have to give money to reward. Otherwise, the robbers will attack the mountain, and the people will not contribute. I am afraid that everyone The master also has unforeseen disasters."

The abbots and abbots of several monasteries are all greedy people, if they were asked to take out the money and food hidden in their respective monasteries, it would be like cutting their flesh, and they would never agree.It's just that the situation is critical at this time, although these abbots and abbots knew that Ye Fengchun was going to take advantage of the fire, they had no choice but to agree.Ye Fengchun sent more than a dozen capable men, along with several abbots and abbots, to carry food and money.

After the abbots and abbots left, Ye Fengchun said to Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan with a smile: "These bald donkeys have been operating in Gubei Mountain for many years, and everyone is a rich man. If the defeated army wins, these bald donkeys will die tragically. The wealth of thousands of people under the command will also fall into the hands of the defeated soldiers. Let's fight the defeated soldiers desperately to protect the lives of these bald donkeys, can't our efforts be in vain? Asking them to give some money is also an aboveboard thing."

When Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan heard Ye Fengchun's words, they were clear-eyed. They knew that he wanted to keep the private property hidden in various temples for themselves, and they secretly scolded him for being shameless.It's just that although the two of them thought this in their hearts, their expressions remained normal, and they didn't utter a word of ridicule.I only heard Ye Fengchun continue to say: "Money is still a trivial matter. The important thing is to save a lot of food. Four or five hundred of us gather here to eat and drink, and the daily food consumption is astonishing. Although we don't know when the Matsuda family will attack us, we must plan ahead. , prepare enough food, so that we can deal with the Matsuda family to the end without panicking."

The three talked and talked, and before they knew it, more than an hour had passed, and a dozen of Songhe Tower's staff, several abbots and abbots returned to the backyard of Xiangji Temple.After the abbot and the abbot walked into the main room to rest, a clerk walked up to Ye Fengchun and said in a low voice, "Let's walk with some bald donkeys according to the order of the big shopkeeper. The food accumulated in several monasteries is really not enough." Not much, enough for us to eat for ten days and a half months. It's just..."

The buddy paused for a while when he said this, and then continued: "It's just that these bald donkeys love money like their lives. Each of them only took out a dozen taels of silver, hypocritically saying that they wholeheartedly worshiped the Buddha and regarded silver as dung. I don't have any savings, and occasionally pilgrims donate silver, and they are all used to buy incense and candle offerings, so there is no surplus money in the temple."

Ye Fengchun sneered when the man said this, and said: "These bald donkeys are all rich men, and incense money is not worth a damn in their eyes. Each of their temples has hundreds of acres of fertile land. The rent is at least several thousand taels. In addition, they lend money for profit, take advantage of lawsuits, and get more benefits. How can they accumulate more than a dozen taels of silver?!"

While listening to Ye Fengchun's words, the buddy nodded repeatedly in agreement.After Ye Fengchun finished speaking, the clerk said with a smile on his face, "The shopkeeper is very right. The villain sees these bald donkeys doing tricks, so naturally he can't be polite to them. The eyes and demeanor of the bald donkeys. Although the bald donkeys are treacherous, but they are eager to make money, the villain still saw their flaws and found out where they hid their money. As long as the big shopkeeper gave an order, the villain immediately took Brothers, go and bring back all the silver!"

After hearing what the man said, Ye Fengchun smiled and said, "Brother Wen was king in Horseshoe Mountain back then. It is said that he could tell how much money a passer-by carried by seeing the horseshoe prints and the depth of the ruts. Although these bald donkeys are cunning, How can you play tricks in front of Brother Wen? It's just that the enemy is now, and we can't turn against these bald donkeys, so when you take your brothers to carry grain, you can't open the secret room where the bald donkeys hide their money. When we have defeated the enemy and have no worries, we will take out the silver and take it away."

The clerk respectfully agreed, and immediately took a few clerks and thirty or forty monks out of the backyard of Xiangji Temple, and went to several monasteries on the left to carry food.Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan listened to Ye Fengchun's words and knew that this man surnamed Wen used to be a thief in the green forest. They wondered why this man followed several abbots and abbots to their temple for a while, and they could find out where the money was hidden in the temple. .This person is a trail-cutter thieves, who make a living by robbing merchants and common people. It is not surprising that he has this ability.It's just that why such a person is so devoted to Ye Fengchun is really puzzling.

After three days like this, the wind and sea on the ancient monument mountain were calm, and no one came to make trouble on the ancient monument mountain.In the morning of the fourth day, Li Qiufeng, Murong Danyan, and Ye Fengchun were talking in the main room in the backyard. A clerk hurried over to meet Ye Fengchun, saying that the clerk who had been ordered by Ye Fengchun to go down the mountain to inquire about the news had rushed back. Report the matter to Ye Fengchun.Ye Fengchun called the guy into the main room and asked how the two daimyos were fighting.The clerk told Ye Fengchun that the two big names fought for more than ten days and lost a lot of soldiers and horses, and both of them wanted to stop fighting.Therefore, people made peace, the leaders of the two sides no longer confronted each other, and each retreated. The road to the Hanshan fishing village was no longer obstructed.Li Qiufeng, Murong Danyan and Ye Fengchun were overjoyed when they heard the words, and wished they could leave Xiangji Temple immediately and rush to Hanshan Fishing Village as soon as possible.Ye Fengchun hurriedly summoned the staff of Songhe Tower to prepare for departure, so he accused Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan of his crimes, and hurriedly left the main room in the backyard.

After Ye Fengchun left, Murong Danyan chuckled and said, "Where is Ye Fengchun going to arrange for everyone to set off? He made it clear that he wanted to send people to get the money hidden in various monasteries before leaving. I don't know who What kind of face will the bald donkeys make when they return to their respective monasteries and see the money they have worked so hard to collect disappear!"
