Chapter 204 Xiaoyaozong (Eighteen)
Xue Wen picked up a fallen leaf and measured the wind direction. After confirming that they were in the downwind direction, he pulled out the weeds here and leveled the surrounding land to use it as a camp.

Then he sat down on the big rock in the camp with peace of mind, took out two steamed buns from his backpack and gnawed on them.

Ji Mingzhao just quietly watched Xue Wen gnaw on the steamed buns. Maybe it was because Xue Wen ate deliciously that she actually had some appetite.

But this appetite was quickly overwhelmed by the jerky taste of wild vegetables in the turned up vegetable bag.

"Didn't you eat well these days?" Xue Wen finished eating the steamed buns in two or three bites. Seeing that Ji Mingzhao's expression was not too good, he felt that he hadn't eaten well recently, "How about making you some meat for lunch?"

When Ji Mingzhao heard that there were still delicious food, he nodded quickly: "You can do whatever you want now."

Xue Wen asked with a smile: "Then can you still eat it now?"

It's okay if he didn't mention it, but when Ji Mingzhao mentioned it, he felt the smell of wild vegetables turn upwards: "...Let's talk about it later, let's find the gathering place of Xiaoyaozong monks first."

Xue Wen simply clapped his hands and shook off the dregs of the steamed buns on his hands: "I might know where it is."

"How did you know?"

"I went to the next town before I came to you, and then I met your rabbit."

Ji Mingzhao nodded: "Where is it?"

Xue Wen looked around and confirmed his position: "It's not too far away, there is a long dirt slope between the town and the town."

The soil slope in the middle is also more than ten meters high, and the town on the other side cannot be seen from the town on this side.

No wonder Feng Siyuan came so fast, the two towns were not far apart.

"go?"

Start early and settle early, and time cannot stand the delay.

Seeing that Xue Wen finished eating, Ji Mingzhao patted his buttocks and stood up from the ground. Just in case, he took the fennel grass out of his backpack and carried it on his back again: "Let's start now?"

Xue Wen also stood up, and the two of them crossed the slope and came to the so-called other town.

Compared with the town on the other side where people live, this town is smaller, and it is built more delicately than the other side, at least the thatch on the roof is complete.

The monks who walked back and forth in the town were all monks wearing black cassocks. There were men, women and children, but most of them were young and middle-aged. The youngest seemed to be less than five years old, and he was still in his mother's arms.

Ji Mingzhao and Xue Wen walked carefully on the street. Compared with the town on the other side, this place looks much more regular. There are also special rooms for cultivation, and there are even half-built unfinished buildings made of wood. There is some straw on the top cover, but it has already been hanged, and it is listed in the library.

Ji Mingzhao and Xue Wen wandered around the town. At least half of the rooms here are empty, but judging from this scale, there are at least [-] people in the Xiaoyao Sect, which is completely comparable to the Dazong Sect. quite.

But judging from these, on the whole, apart from being too poor, it doesn't look like a fraud group at all.

It seems that these people want to use this spiritual acupoint as a base and establish a sect here.

After a brief turn around, Ji Mingzhao and Xue Wen came to the largest house in this town. This house also only had one floor. From the appearance, it was not much different from ordinary houses, but from the details , you will find that the thatch on the roof of this mansion is thicker than other thatched cottages, and there are bunches of dried wormwood in front of the door as a simple decoration.

The shabby room is like this, and those who hear it cry and those who see it are sad.

Beggars passed by and threw copper coins, and wild dogs shook their heads when they entered the house.

Ji Mingzhao and Xue Wen walked into the mansion cautiously.

This should be the high-rise residence of Xiaoyaozong. There are four rooms in total in this mansion. Each room is much more spacious than other residences. One room can only sleep four people, and there is even room for a small table in the room. .

At this time, there was no one in the mansion, so Ji Mingzhao and Xue Wen walked into the central room of the mansion to check.

This room is not only located in the middle of the whole mansion, but also has the largest space inside, and the person who wants to live in it is also the highest in this sect.

Ji Mingzhao walked to the wooden table in this room. The wooden table was not very good. A corner of the table was eaten off by termites. It was padded with a miscellaneous book, but the termites were very arrogant. He ate more than half of that book.

The tabletop was not much better, the wooden pen holder and brushes were stained black with ink, and the inkstone was just a random stone with uneven holes cut in it. The most expensive thing on the whole table should be the one full of boards. A ledger as thick as a brick.

Ji Mingzhao reached out to pick up the top ledger, and opened a page, which was full of firewood, rice, oil and salt, because there are so many people who come here every day, even the simplest steamed buns require an astonishing amount of flour.

The more Ji Mingzhao turned, the more confused he became, but the purpose of these people raising the flag to build the sect became more unclear.

Judging from the books, these ordinary people and monks consume a lot of money every day, all supported by a shop named Fengji Bank, and this bank has been unable to make ends meet for a long time.

Xue Wen also picked up the ledger on the table and turned it over. The more he turned, the more solemn his face became.

"What's wrong?" Ji Mingzhao noticed that Xue Wen's expression was wrong, "What's the problem?"

"Look here," Xue Wen pointed to the summary on the last page, "It says that the total number of people is 17."

This number is much smaller than what the two had previously expected.

"Look at the number of people who came in these two days...it's impossible to have only these people in total."

"This is a private account book... I don't think the private account book is fake." Even Xue Wen didn't believe the numbers on it, but the cover of the account book was written on the account book of Feng Ji Bank, and Xue Wen felt that the possibility of fraud was unlikely. big.

Ji Mingzhao frowned and wanted to discuss this a few more times, but at this moment, voices came from outside the door.

"It's not like you haven't seen the situation now. The people outside are all going to Jinluo Town. What are you going to do!"

"...I didn't think about what to do..."

"What about the business you are talking about! Didn't I tell you no, no, did you listen!"

"I'm not a monk under me who messed up..."

"That's all I'm going to say today. If you don't think about it, we guys are going to break up! How many steamed buns do you think you can eat now?! I was dizzy at the time, listen to you What grand wishes are you talking about, if you keep messing around with you like this, I will lose all my money!"

"You can't wait any longer, it will get better...Look at those demon cultivators..."

"Don't mention those demon cultivators to me! What do they do? Ah, tell me what they do. That small building is built to cover the expenses of 100 people for a month. What do you think!"

 Douzi has two hundred chapters!
