The little old man pressed lightly on the stone wall, and another portal immediately appeared on the stone wall, and there was actually a secret room inside.
There is a stone table in the secret room, with wine on the stone table and three wine glasses on it. It seems that the little old man has already prepared to invite people to drink here, and he has even calculated the number of guests accurately.
"The God of Wealth, come too." The little old man smiled at the honest monk.
"Amitabha, senior, just call me monk." The honest monk actually behaved extremely modestly in front of the little old man.
The secret room was elegantly and beautifully decorated, with Fuso Country's unique sake on the table. There was even a low bed on the floor, which looked like Fuso Country style.
The secret room is not secret. There are doors and windows around it. Sunlight shines in from the outside. The whole room is bright. Outside the room, you can see a small yard with flowers in full bloom.
"In Fusang Country, you must take off your shoes when entering other people's homes and bedrooms." The little old man smiled and said: "This habit was also passed down from the Han Dynasty. They actually don't have many traditions of their own, including you see
This thing we arrived is called a collapse."
Unexpectedly, this secret room turned out to be the little old man's bedroom.
"I'm afraid you brought us here not just to tell us about the exotic customs." Su Yang said.
The little old man nodded: "I'm telling you this just to let you understand what kind of place Fusang Country is."
"What kind of place?" Su Yang smiled and said, "It is said that the women there are very obedient and never dare to quarrel with their husbands. No matter what their husbands say, they will agree in a low voice. When their husbands come home, the women always kneel down.
Greet her at the door and kneel down to change her husband's shoes."
The honest monk sighed: "That's really boring."
"It's indeed boring." Su Yang nodded. What's the difference between a woman like this and a machine? It's better to buy a fish than to live with such a woman.
"This is just one aspect." The little old man nodded: "This is a place with equally poor products and territory. The men there are short in stature but extremely arrogant. They have nothing and want to have everything. They are weak.
When the time comes, they steal and beg. When they become stronger, they rob and kill!”
The honest monk said: "Because of this, no one should touch the money outside! We never expected that someone would dare to rob this money. This is simply an enemy of the entire world."
"Do you think I sent someone to snatch this money?" the little old man asked with a smile.
"Amitabha, the monk doesn't think so, nor has he said anything." The honest monk shook his head, but everyone could see that the facts were there, and there was no need for the little old man to admit anything.
Su Yang said: "You mean, even if you don't take action, this money will not reach its destination safely and become military pay?"
The little old man nodded and said: "That's right. Toyotomi Hideyoshi is now in charge of Fuso Junior High School. This generation of tycoons has great ambitions and has long been interested in both our country and North Korea. The jewelry outside was originally from the North Korea.
A nobleman specially gave it to him, but I accepted it halfway. I calculated that there would be a warm current flowing to the island, and there would be a storm at the same time, so I arranged for the old fox to drive a ship to transport the goods. After the storm, the ship would capsize.
The goods are brought here without us having to do anything!"
The honest monk said: "This is really unbelievable."
Su Yang thought for a while, but nodded: "I believe this. After the money was stolen, it was transported to the seaside, and a group of Fuso people came to take it over. If you had done it, you could have sent a ship directly to bring it back.
, there is no need to play this trick. It can be said that this batch of jewelry was stolen twice. The first time was stolen by a court official who colluded with the Fuso people, and the second time was stolen by you from that court official.
of."
The little old man nodded: "Your analysis is good. Of course, in order to avoid any accidents, I also sent Yue Yang to pressurize the goods. Yue Yang is a good young man. He knows that this ship will inevitably sink in the storm, so
That's why I repeatedly stopped you from taking that boat. If these jewels are transported to Fusang, there will be a great chaos in our country. Although I have lived abroad for a long time, I still have my motherland in my heart. It's okay to do this.
It’s not all for myself.”
The honest monk took a breath of cold air. He certainly knew what kind of great changes would happen between the two sides once the money became Fusang's military salary instead of Liaodong's military salary. And who in the imperial court could have the courage and strength to collude with Fusang and steal the money?
What is the status of the person who took this batch of goods?
At present, everything is similar to the explanation in the original plot, but after Su Yang thought about it for a moment, he found that there were some doubts in it, and the little old man didn't seem to be completely honest with himself and the honest monk.
But that's not what he cares about.
"Where are the others?" Su Yang said.
"He?" The little old man glanced at the honest monk, then at Su Yang, and asked calmly: "Did you tell him?"
The honest monk sighed: "How could I tell him? I didn't tell him, he guessed it himself. In fact, I also want to ask, where are others? Compared with him, these jewelry outside are nothing.
Not on."
The little old man waved his hand lightly: "Do you think I will kill him?"
"Wouldn't it be possible?"
"In any case, we were all his subordinates. Although I quit long ago, I will not kill him with my own hands." The little old man said.
"You don't know how to do it yourself?" Su Yang frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"
"Every generation has its own ideas. What I think shouldn't be done may not be the same for my next generation." The little old man said: "After all, they have grown up and are no longer as obedient as they were when they were children. Not only
My next generation is no longer a child, and will not easily settle down in the world. He came to ask me to help, but I rejected him and he has already gone back."
"So, then we can go back?" Su Yang asked.
The little old man nodded: "Yes, if you want to leave, I will never stop you."
In the original plot, the little old man forced Lu Xiaofeng to become a member of their organization, become a killer, and enter the palace to assassinate the emperor. But now that it was Su Yang himself, the little old man naturally knew that this plan would not work anyway, so he stopped mentioning it.
.
But the little old man followed up and said: "You should pay attention to Gong Jiu. Just because I don't stop him doesn't mean that he won't stop him. There are some people on this island that I can influence, and some people follow him closely."
"Isn't he your son?" Su Yang asked.
"Is it rare in this world for a son to kill me?" The little old man chuckled: "Besides, he is just my godson."
"How does his martial arts compare to yours?"
"That's the point of your question." There was an indescribable look in the little old man's eyes, and he said word by word: "I have never seen a genius like him. No matter how difficult the martial arts is, he can master it."
He can learn it in less than half a month. After he reaches adulthood, I can no longer see how deep his martial arts is. He may be much worse than me, or he may be much better than me."
He looked at Monk Lao Shi and Su Yang, and then said: "What's more, there is a son who killed me, but I didn't kill my son, so I won't help you deal with Gong Jiu. If he is really capable, even if he takes
I won’t object to people from all over the island doing what they want to do.”
The little old man's meaning has been very clear. I will neither harm you nor help you. Everything depends on you. The honest monk nodded, pointed to the secret room outside the room and said: "Can the jewelry be returned?"
Go back? Liaodong is waiting in a hurry."
The little old man shook his head apologetically: "I don't object, but no matter how strong I am, how much can I move?"
"Unless everyone on the island agrees, or Gong Jiu agrees, can we take away this batch of goods?" Su Yang asked.
The little old man smiled and did not answer Su Yang, but looked at the sun outside the window and said, "He will be back soon."
...
It was early in the morning when we left the little old man's room. The weather was clear and the sun was shining brightly. Although the sea breeze was blocked by the mountain breeze from all sides, the climate was still cool and pleasant.
The little old man's room was actually not too far from the small courtyard guarded by wooden figures, and there were no people around. It seemed to be the most secluded place in the valley.
"How much do you believe what he says?" the honest monk asked.
"Do you remember the guy I killed?" Su Yang said.
The honest monk nodded: "Of course I remember, Mu Ban. Do you mean you can only believe half of it?"
"Maybe half is already more." Su Yang said: "But no matter what, I hope that at least one sentence of what he said is true. As long as that sentence is true, it doesn't matter if the others are all false."
"Which sentence?"
"He has gone back." Su Yang looked at the honest monk: "Of course you know, if he has really gone back, where he should be now."
The honest monk nodded.
"Then you leave here now. I have hidden a small boat outside the cliff. If you are not too lucky, you can return to the land in five or six days, and then go immediately to confirm whether he is really safe and sound."
"You won't come with me?" the honest monk asked unexpectedly.
"I can't leave." Su Yang shrugged: "Although you said that as long as nothing happens to him, the 35 million taels are nothing, but then again, if there is no such 35 million taels, he will
It’s not even a piece of shit.”
The honest monk's face twitched twice, and he said a little unnaturally: "Well, it's not good to say this. After all, he is..."
Su Yang interrupted him with a wave of his hand and said with a smile: "After all, I can't control what he is. If you see him, you might as well convey my original words to him. I will also find a way to help him get the money back.
"
The honest monk whispered: "One move affects the whole body. Jianghu issues can only be solved by Jianghu. If other parties are involved, then he will be in trouble, so..." He paused and took a look.
He glanced at Su Yang and said cautiously: "Actually, even if he wants to come to you, there will be many people stopping him, including me."
Su Yang laughed: "Why do I want him here? To steal a woman from me?" (To be continued...)
