Lu Dayou was taken aback for a moment, then came to his senses and nodded.
Looking at the corpses of the disciples who were gathered up, Linghu Chong was a little distracted. If it hadn't been for him, maybe these disciples wouldn't have died.
After a cup of tea, Linghu Chong, who had calmed down, saw Lu Dayou walking out carrying a package.
Seeing the package in Lu Dayou's hand, Linghu Chong couldn't help but frown.
The package was not big. Even if it were filled with gold and silver, it wouldn't be much.
He asked Lu Dayou to lead people to search for all the property in the village, but Lu Dayou came with such a package, which made Linghu Chong feel shocked.
"Junior Brother Dayou, this...is this all the property in the village?"
Lu Da nodded slightly and said: "We have searched all the fortresses and found out where the thieves' silver is. It's a pity that these thieves only have four to five hundred taels of silver. As for other belongings, except for a few jade pendants.
, the jewelry is worth a few hundred taels in total, there is nothing valuable at all.”
Linghu Chong couldn't help but rub his forehead, he wanted to calm down.
It took a lot of effort and even the death of several disciples to finally capture such a large stronghold. Not to mention more, at least it would take a few thousand taels of silver.
But now Lu Dayou told him that only hundreds of taels worth of property were found in the huge village.
It's only a few hundred taels of silver. With so many people in the Huashan sect, just rice, noodles, vegetables, chicken, duck, meat, eggs, etc., would cost several hundred taels a month.
In other words, after destroying such a stronghold and taking the lives of several disciples, all the gains were only about a month's food expenses for the many disciples of the Huashan Sect.
Seeing that Linghu Chong looked a bit uncomfortable, Lu Dayou couldn't help but said: "Senior Brother Head, what are you..."
Taking a deep breath, Linghu Chong walked towards Lu Dayou, shook his head and said, "Dayou, take a few disciples with you and escort the corpses of those disciples back to the mountain."
Lu Dayou looked at Linghu Chong and said, "Senior Brother Leader, you..."
At this moment, even Lu Da, who was slow to react, could vaguely guess Linghu Chong's intention of leading his men to deal with these bandits.
Linghu Chong took a deep breath and said, "Of course I want to work hard to eradicate the thieves around me one by one."
Lu Dayou whispered: "Brother, these thieves probably don't have much money!"
Linghu Chong also noticed it without Lu Da having to remind him. However, Linghu Chong was unwilling to accept it. The method Feng Qingyang helped him come up with was thought to be a good one, but it turned out to be like this.
What if this bandit is an exception? Maybe other bandits have large sums of gold and silver in their dens?
Patting Lu Dayou's shoulder, Linghu Chong said: "Don't worry, even if we don't gain anything, at least our Huashan sect can gain the reputation of being a chivalrous and righteous person."
Next, Linghu Chong personally led the remaining Huashan sect disciples and rushed to the next bandit's lair.
After a full day, Linghu Chong led the Huashan Sect disciples to defeat three bandit lairs.
Except for the fierce bandits in Black Wind Ridge, which caused a lot of losses to the disciples of the Huashan Sect, the bandits in the other two places were vulnerable. They were basically poor people who fell into the trap of bandits. As a result, Linghu Chong was shocked to discover that the bandit village was destroyed.
, only a dozen taels of silver were found.
Finally, Linghu Chong gritted his teeth and forced himself to destroy the remaining dozen bandits. In the end, two more disciples lost their lives in the melee. The dozen bandits together only found less than a thousand taels.
Patterned silver.
Huashan
After returning to the mountain, Linghu Chong hid in his room alone and got very drunk.
The next day, I thought about crossing the cliff at the back of the mountain.
Linghu Chong appeared at Siguo Cliff smelling of alcohol, practicing his swordplay alone there in a venting style. At some point, Feng Qingyang's figure appeared not far away.
Feng Qingyang stroked his beard. When Linghu Chong was sheathing his sword, he looked at Linghu Chong and said, "I learned that you took people down the mountain. How is it? How is the harvest this time? I don't have to worry about insufficient supplies for more than half a year!"
Linghu Chong couldn't help but sigh softly, looked at Feng Qingyang and said slowly: "Master, we thought it was wrong. The bandits at the foot of the mountain are poorer than us. The disciples have killed more than a dozen bandits, and it's just...
Just over a thousand taels of silver were found!"
Feng Qingyang's hand stroking his beard almost pulled off a few strands of his beard. He stared at Linghu Chong with wide eyes and said, "What, you kid are not joking."
Linghu Chong smiled bitterly and said: "How can I, my disciples, still be in the mood to joke with my master? This time I went down the mountain, six disciples died, and a total of more than 1,500 taels of gold and silver were harvested."
After hearing what Linghu Chong said, even Feng Qingyang couldn't believe it anymore, because Linghu Chong's expression and reaction were not lying at all.
Feng Qingyang frowned and said: "How could this happen? There are so many thieves and bandits, but they can't even compare with the wealth of an ordinary gentry's home. How on earth do they become robbers!"
In Feng Qingyang's impression, bandits and bandits all drank together, ate meat, and divided the money on large scales. Killing a few bandits at will would not result in a large amount of property.
Feng Qingyang's figure floated and disappeared, and only Feng Qingyang's voice remained in the air: "Boy, let me be quiet for a while."
Nanchang City
In Prince Ning's Mansion, Prince Ning's face was filled with joy. Yang Tinghe was sitting at the lower left, while Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi were sitting below Yang Tinghe. On the other side were several military generals with fierce aura.
Prince Ning sat in the middle, glanced at the crowd, and said with a bit of joy: "Everyone, I invite you here today to discuss with you how everything has been prepared recently."
Yang Tinghe stroked his beard, glanced at everyone, and finally landed on Prince Ning and said: "Prince Qi, after a period of rush to make, thousands of pieces of soldiers, armor, and equipment have been made. There are many wealthy families who are willing to support us."
more and more."
As a military figure under King Ning, Wang Lun was stroking his beard and said to King Ning: "Your Highness, we have been secretly recruiting young men according to your Highness's order. Now we have expanded the army to more than 40,000 people. We just need to wait for the armor to be in place."
, we can draw out an army of tens of thousands of people for His Highness’s use.”
Prince Ning nodded slightly, looked at Yang Tinghe and said, "Sir, in your opinion, how long will it take for this king to raise an army?"
Yang Tinghe said slowly: "Your Highness, don't be anxious. According to the news we have received, the Zhu family in Jianyang has been escorted to the capital by Chu Yi. If you think about the emperor's temperament, he will definitely behead everyone in the Zhu family in public. When the time comes,
The literati in the world will definitely be excited about this, and this will be an opportunity for Your Highness to raise troops."
Yang Tinghe had told King Ning this before, and it could be seen that King Ning was a little anxious, otherwise he would not have asked Yang Tinghe again when he would raise troops.
Liu Yangzheng coughed slightly and said to Prince Ning: "Your Highness, what you said is true. Now I am waiting to expand our strength before we are exposed, so that we can decide the outcome in a battle. Therefore, I suggest that Your Highness not rush to raise troops. What?
When the imperial court finds out, it won't be too late to raise troops. The longer we delay, the stronger our strength will be, and the higher the chance of success in His Highness' great cause."
On the contrary, Li Shishi looked at Prince Ning with a solemn expression and said: "Your Highness, we don't need to worry too much about the others. There is only one person who must be treated with caution!"
Prince Ning looked at Li Shishi's expression and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Oh, who is sir referring to?"
Li Shishi said slowly: "Secretary of Ceremony, Chief of Royal Horse Supervisor, Chu Yi!"
Ning his eyes narrowed, King Ning couldn't help but nodded slightly. All the secret help he received from many wealthy families in the south of the Yangtze River was ultimately due to Chu Yi. From the bottom of his heart, King Ning was very grateful to Chu Yi, but Ning
The king also knew that Chu Yi was definitely a die-hard loyalist to the emperor Zhu Houzhao. If he wanted to overthrow Zhu Houzhao, Chu Yi would definitely be a hateful obstacle.
In particular, Chu Yi is very loyal to his words in the capital. Even the capital camp is in Chu Yi's hands. If he raises an army, Chu Yi will definitely become a serious problem for him.
Yang Tinghe nodded and said: "Li Shishi is right. Lu Wenyang underestimated Chu Yi too much at the beginning, so he died and his family was destroyed by Chu Yi. Therefore, His Highness must pay attention to Chu Yi. If he can find a way to
If Chu Yi kills him, the prince's great cause will be successful."
Wang Ru, who was full of gangster spirit, said in a loud voice: "It's just a castrated bandit. Even if he has extremely high cultivation level, the worst he can do is to find a way to kill him."
As he spoke, Wang Ru said to Prince Ning: "Your Highness, when I was hanging around in the world, I had a past with Zuo Lengchan, the leader of Songshan Mountain. I would like to go and invite the Songshan sect on behalf of Your Highness to help Your Highness achieve his great cause.
"
King Ning was surprised and said: "Songshan Sect?"
Li Fu bowed his hands and said: "Your Highness, the Songshan Sect is the leader of the Five Mountain Sword Sects in the Jianghu. It is extremely powerful. As Brother Wang said, if we can persuade the Songshan Sect to help His Highness, it will indeed increase the success of His Highness' great cause.
probability.”
Prince Ning said with a bit of joy: "Five Mountains Sword Sect? Why don't I send people to recruit people from the Five Mountains Sword Sect? When the time comes, I will ask these people to join forces to deal with Chu Yi. If one of them can't do it, then two of them can't do it. Then there will be ten."
If ten doesn't work, then a hundred. I don't believe that we can't surround and kill that eunuch Chu Yi."
As he spoke, King Ning swept his eyes across the crowd and said, "Everyone, I don't know who is willing to go through this for me. As long as any family can help me kill the eunuch Chu Yi, the Japanese king will definitely seal his sect when he comes to Dabao."
, to make it glorious and honor our ancestors.”
Everyone's eyes lit up. If King Ning had no promise, they were really unwilling to go and persuade the Five Mountains Sword Sect. Now that King Ning has made a promise, many people are naturally moved by it.
They could not refuse the temptation of Prince Ning's reward, so they chose to rebel with Prince Ning and save others by themselves. They did not believe that the people of the Five Mountains Sword Sect could refuse their invitation after learning about the reward promised by Prince Ning.
