At this time, Mayi City had completely returned to peace.
The reason why things were settled so quickly was that, in addition to Gao Manzheng's sudden uprising and the peaceful liberation of Mayi City, the most important thing was Monk Yan, the great monk of the Lian Sect. Without the grain donated by him, we would have only relied on the grain and grass brought by Sanniangzi.
, there will definitely be a shortage of military rations in Mayi City now, and some unspeakable things will inevitably happen and cause chaos.
But now because the army has abundant food and grass, there is no shortage of food and fodder, so Sanniangzi and the others do not collect food from the people of Mayi like the Turks. Even because of the influx of a large number of soldiers, some additional businesses have begun to open around the military camp.
As a result, Mayi's economic situation even improved.
Even when the lanterns first come on, you can see a surge of people on the streets of Mayi.
Among these crowds, a young Taoist priest dressed in white was following a beautiful woman, strolling on the street as if strolling.
At this time, I heard this beautiful woman speaking to the Taoist priest in white.
"Xiao Qingwei, don't talk nonsense. It is said that humans and ghosts have different paths. It is impossible for humans to see ghosts. Otherwise, why didn't my mother come to see me after she died?"
"I really don't know why Empress Taimu didn't come to see Sanniangzi, a poor person. But there are many ghosts in the world. Ordinary mortals will recognize that the other person is a ghost by accident."
The Taoist priest in white turned his head and traced his big black and white eyes with his snow-white fingers.
"But Pindao can see it clearly with just one glance."
"I don't believe it!"
This beautiful woman covered her mouth with her hands, turned her eyes, and glanced at the Taoist priest in white.
"Since there are so many ghosts, Xiao Qingwei, please tell me who is the ghost here?"
"Here..."
The Taoist priest in white looked around, and then his eyes fell on a woman in green clothes, holding a child in her arms, walking evasively along the street.
"This woman is a ghost, and the child she is holding is the soul of a baby!"
The beautiful woman looked in the direction of the Taoist priest in white, then shook her head.
"I don't believe it. It's obviously the same person. Do you have any evidence?"
"evidence?"
The Taoist priest in white smiled slightly and patted the sword box behind him.
"The poor Taoist Gu Chen is the evidence..."
Whoosh!
With a soft sound, Gu Chen came out of his sheath, and in the blink of an eye, the head of the woman holding the baby flew up high in the air.
"Qingwei!"
The beautiful woman's two sword-like eyebrows instantly stood up.
"You actually dare to disregard human life in front of me."
The Taoist priest in white did not speak, but pointed at the woman with his finger. The woman turned her eyes and found that there was no blood on the woman's neck, but instead wisps of black mist were escaping.
"Ghosts are endowed with Yin energy, so they have no blood. This is the evidence."
Looking at the scene in front of her, the woman blinked in embarrassment.
"Well... I didn't expect that she is really a ghost, so why is he holding someone else's child?"
"Who knew that the souls of babies are useful in many evil methods, such as refining the Nine Sons Mother, and the fire spirit is used to refine attachment..."
The Taoist priest in white casually spread his hands, then stepped forward, waved his sleeves casually, and put the dead ghost into the demon refining pot. Then he turned his fingers, took out a talisman, flicked it in his hand, lit it, and pointed it at the little man in front of him.
The baby's soul trembled.
"reset!"
The next moment, the little baby stretched out his fat white hand and waved towards the two of them, giggling.
call out!
A little light flew out of the lit talisman and landed on the baby. Then the baby's body seemed to be lifted by something. It flew up and landed in a house near them.
middle.
"Giggle..."
The next moment, the baby's laughter came from the yard.
Immediately afterwards, the beautiful woman heard a woman's shout of surprise coming from the yard.
"My son!"
Listening to the voice of the woman crying with joy, the corners of the beautiful woman's mouth curled up slightly, her hands behind her back, she walked toward the intersection, leaving a sentence behind her.
"Well, this time I admit that Xiao Qingwei, you did a good job in this matter!"
Hearing this beautiful woman talking about Xiao Qingwei, a look of helplessness flashed across the face of the Taoist priest in white.
He is obviously a head taller than her!
As if taking a leisurely stroll, the two of them followed the streets of Mayi City to the center of the city. Then, the two of them found a motorcade parked at the intersection, surrounded by a large group of people, and a familiar voice spoke.
Come out from the middle.
"You keep your word. If I fill this bottle, will you betray yourself?"
Then, the two of them heard a delicate voice reply.
"Yes, if the general can fill this bottle, then the slave family will sell themselves as slaves and concubines, doing whatever the king wants."
"Huh!"
Before the Taoist priest in white could speak, the beautiful woman next to her raised her eyebrows.
"This damn guy Peng Youping didn't train well in the camp, and he actually came out to snatch men and women from me. Why, do you think that my military law, Li Xiuning, is disadvantageous?"
Peng Youping?
The Taoist priest in white frowned.
The name sounded familiar, but he had forgotten where he had heard it.
The beautiful woman waved her hand, and a large number of strong men suddenly poured out from the corners around them. They squeezed into the crowd and forced a way for them.
The Taoist priest in white followed the beautiful woman along the wall of people and walked into the middle of the crowd. At first sight, he saw a group of beauties dressed in water pink, dressed like apricot blossom fairies.
In front of the beautiful woman is a small transparent bottle that seems to be made of glass. It is very delicate. Its transparency can be compared with Kong Qing's...Tai Shang Laojun's two dragon and tiger cups.
.
The bottle is not very big and can hold up to half a liter.
Opposite the beautiful woman stood a strong and sturdy man, with his back to them, holding a large money bag in his hand that looked much bigger than the bottle, and said to the beautiful woman in a proud tone.
"Little lady, this is what you said. Don't falsely accuse a certain family of bullying others!"
"Once a slave has made a promise, it is hard to follow him!"
The beauty in pink clothes sat on a seat on the ground and pushed the glass bottle in front of her in the direction of the sturdy man. She looked calm.
"As long as the general can fill this bottle with money, then the slave family will be yours, general. You can be a slave or a concubine at your will."
Hearing the voice of the beautiful woman in pink clothes, the sturdy man suddenly let out a proud laugh.
"Hahahaha... If that's the case, then, little lady, just pack up and follow me later."
"snort!"
Seeing this burly man so arrogant, the beautiful woman suddenly had a frosty face, snorted coldly, and planned to step forward.
Snapped!
Before the woman could take the second step, she saw the Taoist priest standing behind her suddenly reaching out, grabbing her little hand, and pulling her back.
When the beautiful woman felt the strong hand behind her grabbing her, she instantly felt as if the other person's hand had turned into a hot pliers. The heat from the hand made her body go limp.
The next moment, he felt that someone's lips were close to his ear, and the hot breath hit his earlobe, causing her mind to become confused for an instant.
"Sister, please be patient, this woman is unusual!"
"Um!"
After feeling dazed, she seemed to hear someone say something, and then she hummed casually.
The interaction between the Taoist priest in white and the beautiful woman did not affect the tall man in front of him. He walked up to the glass bottle in a grand manner, grabbed a handful of copper coins from the money bag, placed it on top of the glass bottle, and placed it on top of the glass bottle.
Let go, and with a jingling sound, the copper coins begin to fall towards the mouth of the glass bottle.
As the copper coins fell, the people present used a lamp lit next to the bottle to clearly see that as the coins fell, their size began to become smaller and smaller, and finally when they fell into the bottle
, the copper coin has become the size of an ant, but although the size has become smaller, you can still clearly hear the clanking sound made when the copper coin hits the bottom of the bottle.
"ah!"
The situation in front of him was obviously beyond the expectation of the burly man. He looked at the bottle that was not even covered with the bottom, and seemed to be a little disbelieving.
"Come again..."
The burly man grabbed another handful of copper coins and threw them in. However, the situation was exactly the same as before. The copper coins began to shrink as soon as they entered the bottle, and then clattered to the bottom of the bottle, still not enough to cover one layer.
Next, the burly man simply grabbed the money bag and turned it over, heading inside. However, just like before, all the copper coins became smaller when they fell in. Finally, by the time his money bag became empty,
After that, the bottom of the glass bottle was still not covered.
"General..."
The beauty in the pink dress stood up gracefully, bowed her waist and saluted the tall man.
"It seems that the slave family cannot do as the general wishes today!"
"impossible!"
After hearing the words of the woman in pink dress, the tall man seemed to be stimulated.
"I don't believe how much you can hold in this bottle..."
As he spoke, he waved his hand towards the motorcade parked at the intersection.
"Drive a car over here. I don't believe it. This bottle can still hold all our military expenses this time."
At this time, a beautiful young woman, who was holding her little hand by a Taoist priest in white clothes and was in a state of confusion, suddenly became sober after hearing these words, and raised her sword eyebrows.
"This bastard, how dare he embezzle all the military expenses I rewarded him for?"
"No need to worry..."
The Taoist priest in white came close to the young woman's ear again and whispered.
"Keep looking down, let's see what tricks she wants to play!"
"But……"
Although her face had turned crimson, the young woman seemed to be persisting.
"That's military spending!"
"Peace of mind!"
The Taoist priest in white looked straight ahead, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"Pindao guarantees that this military expenditure will not be less than a penny."
