Chapter 565
"So we can leave soon?" Zhou Ming said happily.

"That's right. After moving the Zhang family ancestor's grave out tomorrow, I will ask Mr. Zhang to resign as a teacher. As long as Mr. Zhang agrees, we will pack up and leave directly." Daoist Qingfeng said.

"I seem to have heard that there will be a reward of silver after the grave is moved tomorrow. I don't know how much it is. If we can give four or five hundred taels of silver at once, then we don't have to worry about the money we owe Zhao Yuanwai." Zhou Ming had an idea. , said with a grin.

"It's good to be able to keep this life. Let's not count on the money. I hope this time it's just a false alarm." For some reason, Daoist Qingfeng felt a little uneasy in his heart. He always felt that the development of this matter was inevitable. Some are too smooth.Shaking his head, he simply didn't think about it anymore, just waiting to go to the Zhang family's ancestral grave tomorrow morning.

Seeing that there was nothing to do, the little yamen servant bowed his hands and said goodbye. Zhou Ming sent him to the door, and found that there seemed to be a few more officers and soldiers guarding the door. There were originally four, but now there were six. Grandfather is very scheming.

After going back, the master and the apprentice didn't say anything, and each found a place to sleep peacefully.

In the early morning of the next day, just as it was getting dark, the door of the house was knocked loudly like a drum.

Zhou Ming stood up lazily from the bed, opened the door and saw the officers and soldiers who were guarding the door, and immediately said impatiently: "It's not yet dawn, why are you knocking? It's not over yet." !"

"Hurry up, the county magistrate has already arrived at the door, you two hurry up and pack up, you are about to leave soon." An officer and soldier said coldly.

Daoist Qingfeng had also got up at this time, he and Zhou Ming briefly washed up, then followed the others and walked outside, still under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, but saw that the county magistrate was walking back and forth with his hands behind his back. When Zhou Ming and Taoist Master Qingfeng walked there, all the Taoist priests had arrived. Together, their master and apprentice were the last batch to arrive. Seeing that the master and apprentice beat down a dozen thugs from the Yichun Courtyard, knowing their skills, they arranged the master and apprentice in the innermost courtyard to prevent them from escaping. Almost let them slip.

The magistrate of that county frowned, his face looked a little anxious, he asked Master Zhu beside him in a low voice: "See if everyone is here."

Master Zhu nodded slightly, glanced at the Taoist priests, then cupped his hands and said: "My lord, everyone is here, there are quite a few of them."

"That's good, let's go immediately." The county magistrate said, and strode out first, while Zhang Butou and Master Zhu led a group of priests out of the gate.

As soon as they left the yard, all the priests were startled. There was such a grand scene outside. There were hundreds of officers and soldiers lined up neatly with spears and knives. They stood solemnly, tall and mighty. In front of these officers and soldiers were three vehicles. Large and luxurious carriage.

The magistrate of that county went straight to a carriage in the middle, and was supported by two officers and soldiers into the carriage. Zhang Butou led Taoist Qingfeng, Zhou Ming and several other priests into the first carriage. Master Zhu took the rest of the old Taoists into the carriage.
