Chapter 43 We are not curious, and we dare not be curious
......
Yuguluo Mansion.
Ji Bofu lay in bed for a whole day, and when he woke up the next day, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
"Hiss~~~"
Ji Bofu looked at the familiar environment and sat up from the bed with a splitting headache.
I felt as if my brain had turned into a bowl of stirred tofu. I shook my head hard before I got up and came to the small courtyard.
The sun shines on the cold body, and the severe headache seems to be relieved a little.
While carrying the river cart, waves of peaceful energy continued to enter his body from between heaven and earth. The thin peaceful energy in his body quickly filled up, and his pale face gradually returned to rosy.
"Alas! What a big loss this time..."
Ji Bofu shook his head helplessly, feeling the thin virtual soul in Zifu that could be blown away by a gust of wind.
This wave caused him to lose at least three months of his skills.
The contracted ghost's bite was so cruel that it took away three months of his energy in one bite.
As expected of a contracted ghost, I really don’t want to suffer the slightest loss.
But thinking of the scene where the Contracted Ghost's projection finally exploded, a smile appeared on Ji Bofu's face.
Since childhood, he has been tricked by contract ghosts many times. This time he finally tricked the contract ghost once.
Just when he thought about the great power of the nine-tailed demon soul that the contracted ghost said, he couldn't help but want to laugh.
Could he not know that the nine-tailed demon soul has a great origin?
If the background is not serious, he can solve it directly by himself, can he still ask the contracted ghost to help?
Now it's okay, if the Contracted Ghost takes action, even the person behind the nine-tailed demon soul can't find him.
Not only did he cheat the Contract Ghost, but he also put the blame on the Contract Ghost's head.
So cool!!
"The Taoist priest is awake?"
Just when Ji Bofu was happy, Yu Juluo walked in with a smile. There was no worry on his face, and he had already expected Ji Bofu to wake up now.
After returning home yesterday, he had already asked the imperial doctor to take a look. Ji Bofu was not seriously injured, he was just mentally exhausted.
It is difficult to save the body of the gods when it comes to ordinary people, but when it comes to practitioners, it is just an ordinary symptom.
The power of the soul is just exhausted. Leave him there and rest for a while and he will wake up naturally.
After waking up, just meditate and practice qi to replenish the soul. It is no different from an ordinary warrior who runs out of qi and blood.
The smile on Ji Bofu's face couldn't stop after seeing Yu Juluo, "General, have you sent the poor man's million taels of gold?"
Yu Juluo grinned and said: "I have long seen that you are a little money addict. Don't worry, His Majesty sent you a million taels of gold yesterday afternoon."
After saying this, Yu Juluo clapped his hands twice, and the servants filed in carrying boxes one after another into Ji Bofu's courtyard.
Ji Bofu counted and found that there were twenty small boxes.
Yuguluo ordered people to open the box, and the golden ingots shone in the sun. "One box is five thousand catties, and a total of twenty boxes is one million taels of gold."
"We also have the blessing of the little Taoist priest, grandma, and this is the first time we have heard that gold is calculated by weight. It is really luxurious!"
"Little Taoist Master, if you are worried, just order a little."
Ji Bofu walked to a box with a smile, touched the golden ingot, and the tears on his face were about to flow out.
When have you ever seen such a scene? A million taels of gold were placed in front of him, asking for whatever he wanted.
"Hey, you brat, you really do what I asked you to do. Where do you put our reputation?"
When Yu Juluo saw that Ji Bofu actually started to light up, he immediately became angry.
Ji Bofu took out two gold ingots and put all the gold in the twenty boxes into the Qiankun bag. He handed one gold ingot to Li Laoer and said: "Brother Li, could you please take these boxes?"
Go down, this gold ingot is just a snack for the brothers."
Li Laoer did not answer, but turned to look at Yu Juluo.
Yu Juluo looked at Li Laoer with an angry look in his eyes and cursed: "Just take what the little Taoist gives you. Now he is a big dog, there is no shame in eating the big dog!!"
"Thank you, Taoist Priest!!"
Li Laoer took the gold ingot, bowed his head and thanked Ji Bofu, and then led his servants to carry the box down.
Yuguluo obviously has something to discuss with Xiao Daochang, and he still has some foresight.
After everyone left, Yu Juluo motioned to Ji Bofu to sit down and said: "Little Taoist Priest, after you saved the queen this time, you have fallen into His Majesty's eyes."
"Right now, this million taels of gold is just a reward from Your Majesty. When the Queen wakes up, I will definitely thank you again."
"Moreover, the Lanling Xiao family also wants to thank you and will be grateful to you!!"
Ji Bofu played with Jin Yuanbao's fingers. It was not surprising that Empress Xiao would thank him again, but what did this Lanling Xiao family mean?
"Is Queen Xiao born in the Xiao family of Lanling?"
Yu Juluo popular science said: "Empress Xiao is the great-granddaughter of Xiao Tong, Prince Zhaoming of the Liang Dynasty, and the daughter of Xiao Kui, Emperor Xiaoming of the Western Liang Dynasty. Her mother is Empress Zhang."
"The Lanling Xiao family was originally a second-class noble family from the north. It started with military exploits during the Liu and Song Dynasties in the Southern Dynasties. Later, the family's descendants founded the Southern Qi and Nanliang dynasties. Do you think Queen Xiao is related to the Lanling Xiao family?" "Hiss~~"
Ji Bofu took a breath, who really is the emperor in this era?
However, after thinking about it, Ji Bofu was no longer surprised. This period had just been unified, and some of the dignitaries at this stage were nobles from the Northern and Southern Dynasties. This is very reasonable.
After all, there are no thousand-year dynasties, only thousand-year aristocratic families. The current aristocratic family is indeed more powerful. They have controlled the upper-class resources for so long, so it is unreasonable not to produce some noble people.
"Whatever, it doesn't matter whether the Lanling Xiao family is friendly or not. Anyway, I don't want to explain to them."
Yu Juluo stretched out his hand to give a thumbs up, and praised: "You are like this, the Taoist priest, you are so noble and upright that you will not be moved by the powerful!!"
Ji Bofu rolled his eyes and said: "General, you are in a high position and know a lot of things. Do you think there are some very ancient things that have been passed down to the present?"
"Very old? What is it?" Yuguluo's face was full of doubts.
Ji Bofu said secretly: "Aren't you curious about how that demon soul harmed Queen Xiao?"
Yuguluo shook his head like a rattle and said angrily: "We are not curious, we are not curious at all. We will do whatever His Majesty tells us to do. We will not ask anything that Your Majesty does not tell us. We never do.
Be curious about things outside of your remit.”
Ji Bofu laughed angrily.
"Hey, you are really proficient in the art of being an official!!"
