Lord National Teacher, please forgive me

Chapter 502 Ancient Farmer (14)

Feng Ling pulled Qin Yi to a quiet place, looked at Qin Yi and said, "I'll stay here, you take them to the south, settle them down, and ensure their safety. In this way, our mission is completed .”

This was Feng Ling's idea of ​​getting the best of both worlds, but how could Qin Yi leave her here alone to fight alone? What is a task in Qin Yi's eyes?
What do points count?
He only cared about the person in front of him.

Qin Yi knew Feng Ling's thoughts, so he didn't intend to say it clearly, but said with a smile, "Why don't you ask their opinions, maybe they want to stay, after all, the north is their root, some old people have already started homesick."

Feng Ling frowned and said, "It would be too dangerous for them to stay."

Qin Yi sighed softly, "Who wants to survive in this troubled world?"

Qin Yi looked at Feng Ling silently, and then said, "Let's eat first. After eating, I will ask everyone's opinion. If they don't want to leave, then we will all stay. As long as we are strong enough, we can ensure the safety of so many people." Safe, it shouldn't be difficult."

After thinking about it carefully, Feng Ling nodded and said, "Okay."

After dinner, Qin Yi called most of the villagers together and revealed his plan.

When the villagers heard Qin Yi say that they couldn't leave, they wanted to stay, not only to stay, but even to save more people, the villagers immediately talked about it.

"Not leaving? Do you want to stay?"

"Isn't it too dangerous to do that?"

"We managed to escape, if we go back now...?"

Some young people don't really want to go back, but some older people who have already married, after hearing Qin Yi's words, bowed their heads in thought, and after a while, they sighed, "I've been away from home for so long. The sky has been dreaming, thinking about the land at home, if you don't go back and take care of it, it will be barren."

"Yeah, my father has been making a fuss about going back these days. He's getting old and always says he won't live long, and wants to return to his roots and be buried on the back mountain of his hometown."

"I want to go back, but I'm worried about my two children, the world is so chaotic..."

"Hey……"

Most people want to go home, only a few young people think it is more interesting to go to the south. After all, they have not been out, have not seen it, the bustling and lively outside, and curiosity drives them to go out.

Qin Yi looked at the people who were in trouble, and said loudly, "Those who want to go to the south, I can send them to the ferry, and those who stay, if they encounter difficulties in the future, everyone will get through it together. If they die? Don't have any Any complaints, so I want you to think clearly, should you stay? Or go?"

When everyone heard this, their faces became more dignified. This is a major matter related to the life and death of the family, and they cannot be taken lightly. Even Qin Yi's father, Qin Shouren, and the three brothers, Qin Shouyi and Qin Shouli, came to find Qin Yi one after another when they heard Qin Yi said that he wanted to stay. Qin Yi.

Qin Shouren looked at Qin Yi with some dissatisfaction, "You child. Haven't we already agreed? Let's go to the south together and stay here now. What should we do if something happens in this chaos?"

"That's right, Shiro, our Qin family has sold their property, so even if we go to the south, we can settle down quickly and don't have to stay here to suffer."

Qin Yi was not in a hurry, and his attitude was still gentle, "Father, second uncle, third uncle, I understand what you mean. I want to stay. It is not my impulse. The disaster has just begun, and there will be foreigners in the future." The tribe's invasion, that's why I can't leave."

Qin Yi said with a look of pain on his face, "You have also seen that the common people live in dire straits, cannibalize human flesh, and sell their sons and daughters. These things are not uncommon. The south may not be much better than the north. Although I I have limited ability, but I also want to do something.”

Qin Shouren frowned and said, "I can understand your child's thoughts. Our Qin family is just an ordinary family. Even if you want to do something, you still have no power."

Qin Yi said in a soothing tone, "Maybe, but at least I want to try for now."

With a plain face, Qin Shouyi taught, "Silang, don't be willful."

"Second Uncle, I'm not willful, I'm serious."

Qin Yi and Qin Shouyi looked at each other, and the firmness in their eyes made Qin Shouyi stunned for a moment. He could feel that Qin Yi was really not willful, but really wanted to stay.

Unexpectedly, Qin Zhao, who was standing aside, suddenly said, "Fourth brother, if you stay, I will stay with you."

Hearing what his son said, Qin Shouli slapped Qin Zhao on the head immediately, and said unhappily, "What nonsense are you talking about? Your fourth brother is self-willed, don't you want to be self-willed?"

Qin Zhao patted his chest and said loudly, "A good man has ambitions everywhere. I, Qin Zhao, think that I am no worse than others. Heroes come out of troubled times, and I want to be a hero too."

Qin Shouli snorted softly, "If you still want to be a hero like this, in my opinion, being a bear is not bad."

Qin Zhao suddenly looked at Qin Shouli with dissatisfaction, "Father, can you have some confidence in your son? I don't think I will lose to anyone."

After saying this, he glanced at Qin Yi again, and added, "Except for the fourth brother."

This matter is too big, and we have been discussing it all day.

The next morning, the helpless Qin Shouren had no choice but to agree to Qin Yi and Feng Ling to stay together, and they took the people in the village who wanted to leave to continue southward, and the people who wanted to stay went back with Qin Yi and Feng Ling.

Qin Zhao wanted to stay at first, but Qin Yi didn't let them go. Instead, he asked Qin Zhao to escort these people to the south. They will arrive at the ferry in two days. After arriving at the ferry, they can go all the way south by boarding a boat.

During the past two days, Qin Yi and Feng Ling were worried about accidents, so they decided to escort them to the ferry, watch them go south safely, and then come back.

Only a small half of the people stayed, most of them were old people, and there were people who got married. They didn't want to leave their homeland, but at the same time they felt that they would be able to survive with Qin Yi and Feng Ling.

Two days passed by in the blink of an eye, and soon they arrived at the ferry, but what everyone didn't expect was that there were too many people at the ferry, and there was a big boat parked outside the ferry, and the sailors on the boat kept selling at the window.

"Those who want to get on the boat, 50 taels of silver per person, and those who don't have any silver, get out of here."

"The boatman's 50 taels of silver is really too expensive. Can you make it cheaper?"

"50 taels of silver is too expensive? Haha, you don't even think about what the world is like now. As long as you can get on the boat to the south, you can save your life. I receive silver to buy a life. I don't think it's expensive."

"Most of the people on the boat are already seated, and it will be full soon. Even if you pay 100 taels of silver, you won't even think about getting on the boat."

"The boatman, please do me a favor, my two children are still young, can I get half the price?"

"If you have no money, get out of here. We are not a shantang here, so don't block us from doing business."

When the villagers heard that they would have to pay 50 taels of silver per person to get on the boat, their complexions changed drastically. Their daily savings could have a family of 20 taels. Exchange the silver at home for food.

Now in the hands of these villagers, it would be nice to have a few taels of silver. Where can there be 50 taels?It means that the Qin family is still richer.

The villagers were all dejected and hopeless. They finally got to the ferry, but they didn't expect that the ticket to board the boat would cost 50 taels of silver. Even if they were sold, it would not be worth 50 taels of silver.

Qin Yi took the initiative to step forward, looked at the sailor with a swollen face, and asked loudly, "My little brother, we don't have that much money in our hands, do you accept food?"

The sailor glanced at Qin Yi when he heard the words. Seeing that Qin Yi had a handsome face and a polite manner, he was a learned man, and his words were a little more polite, and he said loudly, "The space on the ship is limited, and no food is accepted. However... there are With so many people, you don’t have to worry about selling your food if you want to come, and if you sell the food and give us money, maybe we can get enough money to buy the boat ticket.”

Qin Yi nodded, turned and left, and told the villagers the news. The villagers slapped their heads and laughed at themselves, "They don't have silver now, but they have grain. In this troubled world, grain is worth more than silver."

With so many people in the convoy, it also attracted the attention of many people. Qin Yi gathered all the villagers, surrounded the convoy, and asked how much food each family wanted to sell, and asked how much they could buy for one tael of silver now. food?
Usually, one tael of silver can buy one stone of grain, but now one tael of silver can only buy more than a dozen catties of grain, and the price has almost increased tenfold.

The price is too high, and many people can't afford it, so they can only starve to death. In order to make up for the boat ticket, Qin Yi can only set the price at one tael of silver and fifteen catties of grain.
Now even if there is money, they can't buy food. As soon as Qin Yi and the others let out the news, the crowd around the ferry all took money to buy food.

Grain sold quickly. Some poor families had no money, so they could only beg on the sidelines, but there was only so much food. The villagers exchanged the grain for silver, and there was not much left. On the way to the south, They also want to eat and drink, and they can't get any extra food to help the victims.

Some people sold all their food and couldn’t afford the boat tickets. Qin Yi took the initiative to lend the money and asked the villagers to write down the IOUs. The brothers have also been extraordinarily generous, and their prestige among the villagers is getting higher and higher.

Finally, those who wanted to leave got their tickets and boarded the boat one by one. Qin Shouren looked at his son and daughter-in-law in front of him with worried eyes, and opened his mouth to speak, but his voice was a little choked up, "You child, you have been stubborn since you were young. , you are grown up now, and your father can't control you anymore. You are taking your wife with you. If life is difficult, you should hurry to the south and write to you when we settle down. Don't force it. You are the only son left now. Don't worry. Let Dad send the white-haired man to the black-haired man."

Qin Yi and Feng Ling could feel the old man's true feelings. Qin Yi nodded honestly and said, "Father, don't worry, I won't die. I will take care of you in the future."

Qin Shouren grinned, wanted to laugh but didn't, turned his head, wiped the old tears from the corners of his eyes, raised his hand, patted Qin Yi's shoulder, and said in a hoarse voice, "Remember what you said, I'll go first Yes, take care!"

Qin Yi nodded and said, "Father, take care!"

The three Qin Shouren brothers left with the villagers, and the remaining villagers in total were only more than 20 people. Feng Ling counted them carefully, including their husband and wife, there were a total of 28 people, including Xiaoshu and Xiaomiao.

The family members of Xiaoshu and Xiaomiao have already boarded the boat and left. The two brothers and sisters stayed here voluntarily. Originally, their family couldn't afford the money for the boat ticket, so it was Qin Yi and Feng Ling who took the initiative to lend them the money to make up for it. Enough money to buy a boat ticket.

Most of the people left, and only 28 people remained. Qin Yi and Feng Ling led the people back.

During this period of time, Feng Ling's cultivation speed has accelerated, and she can draw more than a dozen mustard talismans every day. Now she has saved hundreds of mustard talismans in her hand, and the mustard talismans are all empty.

On the way back, I passed by a provincial capital with a closed city gate. A large number of refugees gathered under the city gate. Officers and soldiers on the gate patrolled non-stop, holding bows and arrows, looking fiercely at the refugees under the city wall. As long as these refugees If there is any movement, he will shoot the arrow in his hand without hesitation.

It was getting late at this time, and Qin Yi asked Xiaoshu to arrange for the rest of the villagers to settle down outside the city gate first. When the night was quiet, Qin Yi and Feng Ling quietly left the crowd in black costumes and came to a remote place. The corner of the city wall.

The two looked up and saw that the guards here were relatively loose. At two o'clock in the morning, it was the time when people were exhausted. The soldiers guarding the city gate were constantly fighting with their eyelids because of exhaustion. After a while, they fell asleep while leaning against the city wall. up.

Qin Yi and Feng Ling flew up, like two flexible swallows, stepped on the city gate a few times, and then boarded the city wall. The two avoided the patrolling soldiers, jumped off the city wall, and went straight into the city. go.

In the past, the city was brightly lit and there was no curfew, but since the disaster, in order to prevent the victims from causing chaos, the magistrate ordered people to close the gates of the city, and the rich households in the city would also order the guardians to step up patrols at night to prevent people from stealing.

These measures are naturally very useful for ordinary people, but for experts like Feng Ling and Qin Yi, they are useless.

Feng Ling and Qin Yi walked around the East District, a well-known area where rich people gather, and selected their target. They had also inquired about it before they came. Most of the wealthy households in the city are rich and ruthless. Do less bullying.But tonight, Qin Yi and Feng Ling's goal was the Sun's family. The two easily climbed over the five-meter-high courtyard wall of the Sun's house and entered the outer courtyard. It will attract the attention of the hounds and they must be extra careful.

The two were very skilled and did not make any sound when they landed.

When he came, Qin Yi also prepared a kind of herbal medicine and applied it on his body, which could avoid the inspection of the hounds and make the hounds temporarily lose their sense of smell.

The two bypassed the patrolling guards and found the warehouse.

The two turned over and jumped onto the roof. After carefully opening the roof, they made sure that there was no one around, and they entered the warehouse.

It was dark inside the warehouse, but the two had good eyesight, even in the dark, it did not affect their vision.

The warehouse was full of bags of things, Feng Ling thought that these bags should be filled with grain.

Qin Yi opened the bag, and the two of them took a closer look. It really was rice, and it was all good rice.

Feng Ling was also polite, and directly took out the meson talisman. With the improvement of Feng Ling's strength, the area of ​​the meson talisman became larger and larger. At this moment, a meson talisman is about 20 square meters in size.

Feng Ling used ten meson talismans to wipe out all the grain in the warehouse.

Then, the two left and went to other warehouses. When the two came out, Feng Ling had already filled up more than 50 meson talismans.

The sky was about to light up, and the two of them crossed the city wall without delay and went outside the city.

Early the next morning, when the housekeeper of the Sun family went to pick up things from the warehouse, he found that the warehouse was empty.

A scream woke up everyone in the Sun family. The richest man almost fainted when he saw the empty warehouse. Immediately afterwards, the richest man asked someone to open the rest of the warehouses.
Then, the richest man Sun fainted from the anger.

After Sun's richest man woke up, he immediately sent people to see the magistrate with a letter of worship. After the magistrate learned the reason, he immediately ordered the whole city to arrest the thieves.

Although I don't know how the thieves stole so many things quietly, but the Sun family gave benefits, and it is necessary to save face.

After all, he was the richest man. Although a lot of food, gold, silver and jewelry had been stolen, he still had a lot of real estate, and there was still a lot of food hidden in the Zhuangzi outside the city.

The arrest of thieves in the city was so exciting that even the outside of the city felt it. Seeing groups of soldiers entering and leaving the city gate, the refugees outside the city did not dare to make the slightest move.

Qin Yi and Feng Ling also noticed it, they didn't take it seriously, and they couldn't catch them anyway.

"Aren't you leaving today?" Xiaoshu and other villagers looked at Qin Yi puzzled.

Qin Yi said with a worried face: "Feng Ling is not feeling well today, I want to wait until she is better before setting off."

Hearing that Feng Ling was not feeling well, everyone was still very concerned and went to visit her one after another.

Feng Ling was half lying in the carriage at the moment, and Xiao Miao was taking care of her.

Seeing that Feng Ling's face was sallow, his eyes were dull, and he looked sick and weak, everyone was very concerned, and comforted Feng Ling, telling Feng Ling to rest more, and they set off again when Feng Ling got better.

The food they carry with them is still relatively sufficient, and these villagers are not very worried.

The next night, Feng Ling and Qin Yi visited a few wealthy households in the city, looted everything and left.

The search in the city became more and more stringent. After all, several houses were stolen. These wealthy households knew many important people, and the magistrate did not dare to be too perfunctory.

But almost a week passed, but there was no news at all, those things seemed to disappear out of thin air, and there were even rumors of ghosts in the city.

On the last night of staying outside the city, Feng Ling and Qin Yi visited the magistrate, and after looting all the millions of taels of silver and hundreds of thousands of shi of grain that the magistrate had accumulated during his three years in office, they finally left the provincial capital .

Next, the group had to stop for a few days every time they arrived in a prosperous metropolis, looting the rich and unkind businessmen and officials who committed crimes before they were willing to leave.

Feng Ling now draws more than 20 meson talismans every day, and after Qin Yi's cultivation has improved, he can also draw more than ten a day.

When they were about to return to their hometown, they had accumulated wealth that even they didn't know how much they had.
