Neon Clothes and Iron Clothes

Chapter 78 Choices
"Yes!"

The appearance of Liu Yuanzhen was an unexpected episode for Wang Wenzuo. Although this person has been very friendly so far, Wang Wenzuo is very clear that this is just an illusion-all the superiors are man-eating beasts, the difference is nothing more than It's good or bad to cover up.The purpose of Empress Wu Zetian sending her to Baekje to look for relics is obviously to use Buddhism to cover her status with a sacred veil. Come up with a result, otherwise the 100 taels of gold you just accepted will become a deadly poison.

"It seems that the speed of shipbuilding must be accelerated!" Wang Wenzuo took out a scroll from the bookshelf and spread it out on the desk. What was depicted on the paper was a sketch of the structure of a Viking longship, to be exact, a Viking with a triangle sail. long boat.The draft of this dual-purpose sailing boat is so clever that it can even pass through shallow waters one meter deep. After installing the triangular sail, it is more flexible than the Viking longships in history, and can even sail against the wind.Wang Wenzuo originally planned to make several for activities on the Xiongjin River.But now it seems that the speed of construction must be accelerated. If Liu Yuanzhen is offended, these ships will be the last straw, even if they flee to a wild place.

Huicong returned to his residence, holding the two ingots of gold collars, his mind full of thoughts.It has only been half a year since the fall of the capital in August last year, but what I have experienced has been more than the sum of the past 20 years. Surviving a desperate situation, not only saved his life, but even the temple had a chance to be rebuilt. For a moment, he felt in a daze, as if all this was not real.

"Master Huicong, what's wrong with you?"

Hui Cong came back to his senses, put the gold collar into his sleeve quickly, looked back at Liu Chongguang standing at the door, and hurriedly invited him in: "I was thinking about something just now, but I didn't see you, what's the matter, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing, it's just that Pingji caught a few wild rabbits. I remember that you don't like to eat them, so I gave you some!" Liu Chongguang smiled and held up the smoked rabbit meat strung up with straw rope: "Look, it's a good way to let go of rabbits." where?"

"How embarrassing!" Huicong hastily declined.

"What's so embarrassing about that!" Liu Chongguang said with a smile: "I see that your complexion is not very good recently, this smoked rabbit meat is just for you to nourish your body!"

The two were making room, but they didn't want the gold collar in Huicong's sleeve to fall on the ground, making a crisp sound. Liu Zhongguang pleaded guilty and picked up the gold collar: "This, this should be gold, right?"

Hui Cong knew that Liu Chongguang was originally a craftsman who cast Buddha statues, and he was no stranger to gold and silver, so he couldn't hide it from him, so he admitted frankly: "Yes, this is a gold collar, which was given to the poor monk by Wang Canjun?"

"Ah!" Liu Chongguang was taken aback: "So much gold? Is it to rebuild the temple?"

Hearing the word "rebuild the temple", Huicong's heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly asked, "Master Liu, how much money can this gold be exchanged for?"

Liu Chongguang picked up a gold collar and looked at the inscription on it: "I have heard people say that one tael of gold can be exchanged for ten taels of silver, and one tael of silver can be exchanged for a penny. Look at the inscription on this gold collar. There are five taels of weight, which is fifty guan, and two is one hundred guan!"

"One hundred guan? So much!" Huicong was startled.

"In fact, it's more than that!" Liu Chongguang shook his head: "This gold collar should come from the palace according to its style and texture. It is high-quality pure gold, and you can exchange it for silver or copper coins. , 120 guan, 130 guan is not much! Such a large sum of money, you must definitely collect it, and when the war subsides in the future, it can be used to rebuild the temple!"

"No!" Huicong shook his head: "This is not for rebuilding the temple!"

"Ah?" Liu Chongguang was stunned. In his opinion, although Wang Wenzuo was generous, he was by no means the kind of abusive person. Besides, even Wang Wenzuo couldn't take out such a large amount of money casually, could he?If Huicong was not to be entrusted to rebuild the monastery, how could he take it out?
"Master Liu!" Huicong hesitated for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Do you think the relics are more important, or the monastery?"

"Relic? Temple?" Liu Chongguang was stunned, he thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "From what I've seen below, if I have to choose, I'd still choose the temple!"

"Why do you say that?"

"Because relics are precious, but for me, the temple is the home of our Liu family for generations. Without relics, I can still live. Without a home, I become a stray wild dog, not a human anymore. !"

"Yes!" After listening to Liu Chongguang's answer, Huicong felt as if the dust in his heart had been swept away, and he felt relieved immediately. He nodded, "Thank you, Master Liu, you have solved a big problem for me." !"

"What is this?" Liu Chongguang laughed: "Master Huicong, as long as it is to rebuild the temple, I will do my best no matter what!"

Ren Cuncheng.

Due to the melting of the snow, the river was half wider than when Heizhi Changzhi and Sha Zhaxiangru crossed the river last time. The turbulent river was like a giant beast roaring, swallowing everything.Looking at the turbid and swirling river, Black Teeth is full of doubts. This fortified mountain city has changed its owner, and no one knows how the new owner will treat him.

The fine raindrops made the sky gloomy, and only the towers of Ren Cuncheng could be vaguely seen, like tall ghosts. As they approached, the yin energy gradually condensed.The rainwater filled the moat, like a long lake, surrounding the towers guarding the intersection at the foot of the mountain.

Through the rain, Hei Chi Changzhi discovered that there were thousands of soldiers camped on the hillside. The flags hanging outside the tents were soaked in water and hung on the poles, like many drowning cats, unable to see the colors and patterns clearly.All he knew was that most flags were gray, and indeed, the whole world seemed gray these days.

Failure is so terrible, no one is on the side of the loser, there are less than 200 people behind Heizhi Changzhi and Sha Zha Xiangru, and there are at least 1000 people around them after the defeat that day, but the soldiers are like dead leaves They left them as if they were separated from the tree trunks, and they were in groups of three or four. They had sent people to chase them back, but the people they sent did not come back.

"Often, you have to be patient later!" Sha Zha Xiangru warned: "You know Fu Xingong's temper, and he will definitely be favored by us later, so don't worry about it!"

"Don't worry, I am very aware of our current situation! No matter what he says, I will bow my head and obey!"
