Doom Roar

In the blink of an eye, a month later, the soldiers and horses of the Kingdom of Jin on the other side of the Yangtze River are still practicing vigorously, the navy of the Song Dynasty is still waiting in full force, and the people of the Song Dynasty are still hiding in fear, but for the residents living in Qiantang County, all this is just a little after dinner. It's no longer just new talk.

If we say that the only impact on their lives is that due to the influx of migrant workers, the crime rate in Qiantang County has increased sharply. At first, it was only petty theft. The drumming at the mouth has hardly stopped since the announcement day, and the county magistrate is so busy that he has to pinch his fingers to count the time, and even Li Gongfu often works overtime until night.

During this period of time, with Xu Mo's astonishing hunting efficiency, the Xu family's field has also increased from the initial eighty-odd acres to one thousand acres, although it is still not as good as those in Qiantang County, which cost tens of thousands of acres. Landlord, but in the area where he lives, he can be regarded as one of the best wealthy households.

This almost unbelievable speed of rise is also due to Xu Mo's almost inexplicable novice luck - when he went up the mountain for the fifth time, he actually found a 900-year-old Zizhi on a certain cliff.

According to the calculation method of the background of this mythical world, animals can become refined in 300 years, while plants are slightly slower, at least a thousand years before they can become refined. ...But Xu Mo didn't care if he killed a certain mountain spirit in the future, relying on the grapple rope of the [Ice Abyss Demon Armor], he climbed all the way up the thousands of meters of cliffs, and easily killed the hundreds of years of medicine collectors. The unattainable spirit grass was picked. [

Although it is less than a thousand years old, the 950-year-old purple lucidum is also an extremely rare spiritual herb. Its value is so high that the largest Renhetang in Qiantang County can't raise so much money to buy it for a while, so Xu Mo spent a special day to buy it. Time went to the imperial capital of Lin'an hundreds of miles away, and then sold the 900-year-old Zizhi to a big drug dealer at a high price of [-] guan.

It is worth mentioning that Xu Mo probably thought that he was an outsider. After the big drug dealer paid Xu Mo [-] pennies, he arranged for his slaves to pretend to be on the small road outside Lin'an City. As a bandit robbing and killing him, of course, in the end, Xu Mo beat him to the ground without any accident.

Then, when Xu Mo threw a bunch of house slaves that looked like zongzi in front of the big drug dealer, the big drug dealer almost peed in the pants, and had to reluctantly pay Xu Mo two thousand yuan for hush money. and shock fees.

In this way, Xu Mo experienced for the first time what it meant to be "rich".

Of course, the income from the field is an extremely slow and long-lasting process, and it is unrealistic to expect that the newly purchased field will produce immediately.

Fortunately, the climate in Qiantang County is suitable for rice planting, and it is completely possible to achieve two crops a year. Therefore, although there was a delay in buying land and hiring tenant farmers, it was still able to catch up with the second season of rice transplanting that year.

The so-called popular right and wrong, although this sentence is not very appropriate here, but it also vividly illustrates Xu Mo's current state.

Back when Xu Mo was a poor boy, no one except his neighbor, Uncle Niu, thought of helping him arrange a marriage, but now that Xu Mo is prosperous, and the only wife in his family is Li Gongfu, almost all the matchmakers in Qiantang County Running over to say hello to him, all kinds of passers-by, daughters, cousins, nieces, nieces and nieces of A, B, C, and Ding's families popped up all at once, all of them talking gaudyly, and once more than two matchmakers met, they might even be robbed. The business was directly staged in the courtyard of Xu Mo's house, and it was so lively.

At first, Xu Mo gave way to his family because of the face of the neighbors, but later he was so disturbed that he simply went out for a walk every morning, and only went to the county government to pick up Li Gongfu when it was getting dark. Let those annoying matchmakers make trouble against General Tie.

"Msanggong, how about...you take a concubine."

On the way home one day, Li Gongfu who was walking side by side with Xu Mo suddenly said.

"Take a concubine? Why do you say that?" Xu Mo frowned slightly. Recently, he was quarreled by the group of matchmakers so that he felt dizzy when he heard these two words.

"After all, I can't conceive, but the Xu family has to pass on the incense." Li Gongfu held onto Xu Mo's cuff, blushed slightly, and said in a low voice: "Besides, my mother said that even if a man is full, he will inevitably die when he is full." It's sneaky outside, but if you don't even feed it, then even if it's sneaky, you can't blame the man.

The doctor said, I won’t be able to recover until I’m at least 25 years old, and you’re at the young age of Mu Ai, and I don’t want you to go to Goulan, a place of fireworks and those unclean places. women together.

What's more, I work in the yamen every day, so I don't have much time to take care of you and this family. It's not a big deal to let you eat in the tavern on weekdays. I can at least help me share some housework if I give you a concubine. , so that you can have a mouthful of hot rice and a bowl of hot tea whenever you go home, right? "

"This... let's talk about it later."

Xu Mo came to this world only to look for Lin Yijing, Tang Guo and others. Even if he knew that the people around him were illusory NPCs, he didn't want to be involved in too many trivial matters.

Seeing that Xu Mo was absent-minded, Li Gongfu had no choice but to give up for the time being. Although it was a matter of marrying a wife and a worthy concubine, Xu Mo was the head of the family after all. He still had to nod in person whether he would accept it or not.

"Gong Fu, is the yamen very busy these days? You come back so late every day?" [

After all, Li Gongfu's job in the yamen is to protect the safety of the county magistrate's family in Neizhai, so it stands to reason that she shouldn't be as busy as other police officers.

"Since those fleeing people flooded into Qiantang County, the yamen is not busy any day. My father has not been home for two days. Even every meal is brought to him by my mother..." Speaking of this Li Gongfu was quite resentful about this matter, "Of course, it's nothing to do with our inner house, but recently there has been a flower picker in Qiantang County, who is good at using smoke to commit crimes, and many women from good families have been ruined by him. The county magistrate was worried about the safety of the wife in the inner house, so before he returned to the inner house, he strictly ordered me to stay with the wife every step of the way... No way, I am the only woman who knows martial arts in the entire county government."

/>

"I see."

Xu Mo didn't mean to complain about Li Gongfu, but seeing her coming home late every day, he was a little worried about her safety.

"By the way, Xianggong, I want to discuss something with you." Li Gongfu suddenly hesitated.

"What's the matter, you said."

"I may live in the county office tomorrow night."

"Why? The county magistrate won't go back to the inner house tomorrow night?" In Xu Mo's impression, no matter how late Li Gongfu came home, she had never been away all night.

"No, I'm going to watch the warehouse for a few days for my father's shift." Li Gongfu apologized.

"Oh? Look at the warehouse? What happened to Yue Zhang?"

Xu Mo's first reaction was that there was something wrong with Li Gongfu's father, but after thinking about it, he felt that something was wrong. If he was sick normally, he only needed to find a yamen servant to replace him. There was no need for a woman like Li Gongfu Going to watch the night is unreasonable both emotionally and rationally.

Li Gongfu lowered her head and said with a sad expression: "My father was hit by a board and is recuperating at home now."

"Beating? Why did the magistrate beat your father?" Xu Mo was stunned.

"I can't really blame my father for this..."

It turns out that these few days are the time for the autumn tax collection in Qiantang County. The county treasury stores the [-] guan tax that has just been collected, which is converted into cash and stamped on the Qiantang County treasury. Suzhou Prefecture.

The first two days were uneventful, but on the morning of the third day, the successor found that all the 4 taels of silver in the treasury had disappeared, leaving only a pile of empty boxes where the silver was originally stored. The seal on the gate of the county treasury was intact, and there was no sign of it being opened.

There are a total of three locks on the gate of the county treasury, two of which are kept separately by the yamen servant on duty, and one is kept by the county magistrate himself, so the possibility of self-theft by the guard is ruled out.

Although there is no clue, someone must be responsible for the lost treasury silver. 4 taels is not a small amount. It's a trivial matter to lose an official and dismiss from his post. If it doesn't work out, he will be sent directly, exiled for thousands of miles, and may die halfway.

Therefore, the magistrate of Qiantang County was also very anxious, and without a word, he first smashed the yamen guards who guarded the treasury that night for [-] boards, and set a deadline of ten days to solve the case.

Tomorrow, another batch of autumn taxes will be put into storage, and it happens that Li Gongfu's father is on duty again. Li Gongfu doesn't want her father to be sick and have to watch the night, so she plans to take over from her father's shift and see if it's possible by the way. Catch the thief who stole Ku Yin before.

"Ku Yin disappeared?"

The situation described by Li Gongfu made Xu Mo suddenly feel very familiar. Although Xiaoqing's theft of Ku Yin in the original "The Legend of the White Snake" happened after Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen got married, since the centipede can come out ten years in advance, this little pepper It seems that there is nothing strange about running out to toss now. [

"Gong Fu, in my opinion, this incident may not be the work of ordinary thieves... Listen to me, you go and ask a Ku God to post it on the county treasury door tomorrow, and it should ensure that Ku Yin is safe."

Xu Mo never thought of having a direct conflict with a main plot character like Cen Biqing, not only because he was not sure of the opponent's strength, but more importantly, he was a little scared of the 800-year-old Bai Suzhen behind her.

Although in the original book, Bai Suzhen is a kind-hearted and kind-hearted monster image, but the world has already collapsed, and the plot develops various morals. It is not impossible to create a blackened version of Bai Suzhen, so After much deliberation, Xu Mo decided to deal with this matter with the method of inviting Ku Shen in the original book.

At least safe insurance.

"You mean, the person who stole the treasury silver may not necessarily be a human being?"

Li Gongfu's complexion suddenly changed. Although she is more courageous than ordinary women, she is still a mortal after all, and she still has a considerable fear of unknown things such as gods and ghosts, not to mention the incident with the centipede. It also let her know that her husband-in-law is not extraordinary, so she has no doubts about what Xu Mo said.

"Then... I'll go to invite Kushen tomorrow, and by the way, I'll go to Jinshan Temple to ask for a consecrated object to ward off evil spirits."

"Uh... It's enough to invite God of Ku, and you can avoid it by going to Jinshan Temple." Xu Mo hurriedly stopped, he didn't want the plot to be affected by him and have uncontrollable branches.

"Why? Wouldn't it be safer to prepare one more?" Li Gongfu wondered.

"Uh... Buddhas return to Buddhas, Dao returns to Taoism, and together they will fight." Xu Mo reluctantly gave an unreliable explanation.

"Okay then, I'll only invite one Kushen. If it doesn't work, I'll go to Jinshan Temple."

Uh, I reviewed it, I miscalculated the development of the plot, which caused the benefits to be delayed until tomorrow's chapter.

It is customary to ask for a red ticket.
