Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 113 Monk and Scholar

After Wu Shigong wiped off the blood on his body, he walked out of the tea shed and returned to the cavalry.At this time, Xue Yong leaned against Wu Shigong and said excitedly, "Master, we have made a fortune."

Wu Shigong asked some cavalrymen to look at these rioters kneeling on the ground, and then followed Xue Yong to the place where Master Mou was trampled to death.

Next to the group of tents where the leaders of the Holy Spirit Society, Master Mou, live, there are many carts and wheelbarrows densely packed.All kinds of supplies are placed on these vehicles.

"Have you seen what's in the car?" Seeing this situation, Wu Shigong also asked excitedly.

"It's all grain. There are also copper coins, cloth, and salt. We roughly estimated that there were more than 600 carts, and the mules and horses pulling the carts were all complete. There were more than 3000 wheelbarrows. However, the wheelbarrow There are more than 500 empty vehicles. In addition, there are some pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks in there." Xue Yong also replied with a smile.

Wu Shigong immediately ordered: "Hurry up and organize these rioters who surrendered, and let them transport these vehicles back to the Qianhusuo Fortress. Be quick, otherwise, the other gray grandchildren will not come to the war." , you won’t be soft-hearted in grabbing these things.”

Wu Shigong then ordered: "Let those rioters go to clean up nearby, and put all the weapons and agricultural tools thrown on the ground into empty wheelbarrows and pull them back. Remember, don't even leave an iron pot behind. Everything. This iron material is also worth a lot of silver."

This time Wu Shigong went to Jining to buy iron materials, and only then did he realize that in the Ming Dynasty, compared with modern times, the price of iron materials was as high as heaven and as low as underground.He didn't know that in the Ming Dynasty, iron was sold exclusively like salt.This is also a major fiscal revenue of the Ming court, so why not expensive?

Xue Yong hastily agreed, and hurriedly went with a group of cavalry to organize the rioters.At this time, Xue Yongli asked Wu Shigong, "Young master, I just carefully looked at those rioters who surrendered. Although there are quite a few of them, most of them are women and children, not many young and strong."

In the massacre by Wu Shigong and the others just now, of course those young men relied on their physical strength and either escaped or swam to the opposite side of the river, and those who stayed and surrendered were basically old, weak, sick and disabled.

Wu Shigong gritted his teeth and said to Xue Yongli: "I can't control that much. If one doesn't work, just two or three, even if they drag, let them drag these vehicles back to the fortress of Qianhusuo. When you are escorting, don't Afraid of harsh hands. If anyone procrastinates, kill him. These days, human life is worthless."

Xue Yongli nodded and agreed.Suddenly, he thought of another thing, and immediately asked Wu Shigong: "Then what shall we do with these people after returning to the fortress of Qianhusuo?"

"Drive them away. We can't support so many people. Anyway, these people are scared out of their wits now, and they won't be able to make any waves after they leave."

Xue Yong, together with the cavalry, organized the rioters to drive carts and push and pull wheelbarrows.Xue Yongli also went to help.Wu Shigong took a dozen people to these tents of Grand Master Mou.He first found a piece of clothing in a tent to put on his body, and then searched with the guards to see what he found.

Surprisingly, the harvest in this tent is not small.A total of nearly 5000 taels of silver and dozens of bolts of silk and satin were found.In Grand Master Mou's tent, more than sixty five taels of gold ingots and four boxes of gold and silver jewelry were found.However, there are still bloodstains on some gold and silver jewelry, and its origin is also clear at a glance.

Wu Shigong and these guards also found seven or eight small golden Buddhas.It should be the religious idol of the Holy Spirit Society.Also, in Master Mou's tent, he also found an imperial seal of the "Great Song Kingdom" and a dragon robe from an unknown troupe.

When Wu Shigong entered Master Mou's tent, the daughter of that rich family was still hiding naked under the blanket.She is lucky.Wu Shigong ignored her and threw her a piece of clothing, asking her to put it on and wait outside the tent.

Outside the tent, there were more than a dozen carriages in which Master Mou and his leaders rode. After the woman got dressed, she got into a carriage and hid.

After tidying up the things harvested in the tent, Wu Shigong went outside and told Xue Yong and the others to take away the silver, silk and jewelry.For the other things, he was going to turn them over as spoils of war to the governor of Guide Mansion.

At this time, two people ran over from the east, because all the rioters on this side had escaped completely.Therefore, these two people are particularly eye-catching.

The cavalry in charge of vigilance immediately issued a police report. After hearing the alarm, some cavalry surrounded them.After a while, the cavalry brought the two men before Wu Shigong.

These two people are not very old, and they are dressed in short clothes, which is quite normal.At his waist was a sword.Another person, with a shaved head, wearing a monk's robe and a waist knife tied around his waist, was clearly a young monk.

Wu Shigong and the others had just wiped out the rioters of the Holy Spirit Society, and they were very sensitive to the monk, so they all held weapons and focused all their attention on this young monk.

"Who the hell are you?" Wu Shigong was also very vigilant, holding a samurai sword tightly in his hand, staring at the little monk and asking.

The little monk clasped his hands together, bowed to Wu Shigong, and said, "Amitabha, this little monk is wise to bow to the general."

"Smart? What a strange name. It's ipda." Wu Shigong cursed inwardly.

"Tell me! What are you doing here?" Wu Shigong asked sharply.

"The little monk was sent by the Fu Zun to find out what's going on here."

"Are you really sent by Mr. Fu Zun?" Suspicion clouded in Wu Shigong's heart.It is normal for the governor of Guide Mansion to send someone here to investigate the situation.However, he has so many yamen servants and soldiers to send, why should he send a monk?

But before the little monk could answer, the person next to him hastily explained: "Of course, yes. We were sent by the Master."

The man was dressed in short clothes, but Wu Shigong could tell from his words that he was not a commoner.Wu Shigong frowned even tighter.He turned his head and asked the man in short clothes, "Are you a scholar?"

The man nodded, bowed his hands and bowed, and said: "Student Deng Qifan has paid his respects to the general."

Deng Qifan's gift confirmed Wu Shigong's judgment.Because the bowing ceremony in the Ming Dynasty is also different.There is a difference between the handcuffing of the scholar and the handcuffing of ordinary people.Seeing that Deng Qifan bowed his hands very naturally, it shows that he usually bows his hands like this.This also confirms that he is a scholar.

Now Wu Shigong is [-]% skeptical.Then who is not good to be sent by the Fuzun of Guide Mansion, who wants to send a monk and a scholar to investigate the situation here?

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case.Don't let these two people be the remnants of the Holy Spirit Society.Anyway, let's get the two of them together first.Wu Shigong raised the samurai sword in his hand and ordered: "Tie them both up."

Seeing Wu Shigong issued an order, the guards around him also raised their weapons and pushed towards the two men.

"Don't do it!", "Don't misunderstand!" Seeing that the situation is not good, these two people quickly explained: "We are really sent by the Lord Fu Zun."

"Oh? Then do you have any tokens?" Wu Shigong asked.

The two of them were embarrassed by Wu Shigong's question.They really don't have any tokens around them.

It turned out that just now Guide Mansion City heard the commotion of the rebel camp under the city wall, and the people in Guide Mansion City thought that the rebels were going to attack the city.However, when they were preparing tremblingly, they were surprised to find that the entire camp of the rioters had exploded.And the rioters ran around like headless chickens.Without much effort, the city walls of Guide Mansion turned out to be empty.

At this moment, all the people in Guide Mansion City were a little confused, they thought that the gods had appeared.After reporting to Hou Xun and the Fu Zun of Guide Mansion, they were also a little confused.Because, counting the days, even if the governor of Henan sent reinforcements, it is absolutely impossible to arrive at Guidefu City in such a short time.

So, all the people went to the city wall of Guide Mansion to observe the situation and discuss.But after studying for a long time, I didn't find out why.In the end, I'm still going to send some spies to investigate the situation.

But when the orders of Hou Xun and the governor of Guide Mansion were sent out, all the soldiers and government servants refused to go.People at that time were very superstitious.If there are still rioters gathering outside the city, maybe a few brave men will jump out under the heavy reward.But in such a weird situation now, don't expect any ghosts and ghosts outside the city.

Seeing that all the soldiers and yamen servants refused to go, Hou Xun and the governor of Guide Mansion were ready to borrow a few heads to embolden others in a fit of anger.Seeing this situation, the young monk Zhizhi and the scholar Deng Qifan volunteered.

Zhizhi and Deng Qifan came to Guide Mansion to visit Fu Zun and Hou Xun of Guide Mansion.It just so happened that the Holy Spirit would rebel the people to attack Guidefu City, so the two of them were also trapped in the city.

However, the two of them are not very old, they are a little bit full of blood, and they also have some thoughts of fighting for justice and saving the country and the people.And they both know some kung fu.Of course, intelligence can do some real kung fu, so Deng Qifan is definitely a showman.So, the two of them volunteered.

Seeing Chih-chi and Deng Qifan volunteering for Ying, Hou Xun and the mansion of Guide Mansion persuaded them a few times in a pretentious manner, and saw that their attitudes were very firm, so they were sent to the city wall with ropes Down.

In this way, they found Wu Shigong here.However, before they set off, they never expected that someone would ask them to show any tokens, so they were not prepared at all.So this misunderstanding happened with Wu Shigong.

Seeing Wu Shigong and these guards getting closer, Na Zhizhi and Deng Qifan didn't dare to pull out the weapons in their waists.In desperation, Nazhi shouted loudly: "How can the general believe in the identity of the little monk?"
