The fat monk paused for a moment and said: "Prince Consort Chen, to be honest, the monk is the abbot of Tiefa Temple in Jin State. His monastic name is Lingchen. He received an invitation from Master Miaojiang, the abbot of Tianyuan Temple in Chu State. Tianyuan Temple said that he stayed overnight when passing through Xinjing City last night. Just when he was about to set off on the road at noon, he suddenly heard a rumor that Chen's consort in Princess Qingfeng's mansion had obtained something that could make iron trees bloom. It’s precious porcelain. When my curiosity aroused, I rushed over to take a look!”
As soon as he heard this, Chen Xiaomu couldn't help but frown, and interjected: "Master Liaochen, who did you hear that there are treasures in Princess Qingfeng's mansion?"
Master Liao Chen was stunned for a moment when he heard this, thought for a moment, and said, "I don't know who it is. I was packing packages in the room with the door closed at that time, and suddenly I heard two people whispering in front of the door. Their Prince Consort of Princess Zheng Guoqingfeng's Mansion got an unprecedented treasure, which can make ordinary fruit trees bear golden fruits, and can also make thousand-year-old iron trees bloom. Even if it touches the dead wood, this treasure can make it bloom. It sprouts new leaves, but what I didn’t expect is that this treasure can also be used to exponentially increase a person’s own skills!”
So that’s it! Chen Xiaomu's mood at this time can only be described as mixed emotions. According to the time Master Chen said, what he said to Su Chengxuan and others in the princess's mansion was almost simultaneously transmitted to the market of Zheng State. I can't help but think that on the surface, Zheng Guo today seems to be a big ship sailing on a seemingly calm lake, but in fact, there are already turbulent undercurrents below the lake. Now, even the slightest wave on the lake is very likely to cause the ship to capsize. ending.
Chen Xiaomu was lost in his thoughts when he suddenly heard Master Chen calling him repeatedly, "Prince-in-law Chen, what do you really think about the monk's proposal?"
Amidst Master Liaochen's repeated shouts, Chen Xiaomu suddenly woke up and said with an apologetic look: "I'm sorry, Master Liaochen, I was distracted. Could you please say it again, okay?"
At this moment, there was obvious anger in Master Liao Chen's eyes. He had never been treated so slowly before. Helpless, looking at Chen Xiaomu who looked apologetic, he had no choice but to say again: "Chen Prince Consort, how can you do this this time?" Listen, I want to ask you to temporarily hand over the treasure spell and the half-night pearl left by Qiu Xingbo, the head of the Five Poison Sect, to me for safekeeping. In exchange, it can also be said to be a reward, we at Tiefa Temple are willing to give it to you. Princess Qingfeng’s palace has 800,000 taels of silver, and she will recover the treasure from Qiu Xingbo on behalf of Prince Consort Chen within one year! Is it true that Prince Consort Chen is willing to do so?”
Chen Xiaomu shook his head and said lightly: "I don't want to." "
''Why? "Master Liao Chen was surprised. According to Master Liao Chen's idea, there is no better deal than the offer he made. All in all, he spent 800,000 taels of silver to only buy half of a luminous pearl, and he also promised to spend 800,000 taels of silver on it. Help Chen Xiaomu regain the treasure within this year. Is there any deal that is more unfavorable than this? Who would have expected that this guy refused without even thinking about it? This was really beyond his expectation!
Chen Xiaomu glanced at Master Chen sharply and said with a smile: "I want one and a half million taels of silver, and I want to hand over the silver in one hand and deliver it in the other. In exchange, if you can help me get the treasure back, as a token of my gratitude, I will How about giving this treasure to your temple?"
''this……! "Master Liaochen didn't expect Chen Xiaomu to have such an idea. He hesitated for a moment, clasped his hands together, bent down slightly and said: "Chen Prince Consort, please allow me three days. I will rush back to the temple to discuss it with my senior brother, Abbot Liaoyuan. , we will reply to you within three days! how? "
Chen Xiaomu followed him and clasped his hands together and said in return, "I will listen to you, Master."
Upon hearing this, Master Liaochen smiled and nodded to Chen Xiaomu. His body suddenly rose out of the air, like a kite with its strings cut off. His figure quickly passed over the top of the big cypress tree and disappeared in an instant!
Chen Xiaomu looked in disbelief at the direction where Master Chen's figure disappeared, and couldn't help but said in amazement: "I really feel like I've seen a ghost these past two days. Why do I meet so many practitioners, and all of them can fly over walls and walls!"
Wei Yuxin, who was standing by, rolled his eyes at him and sneered: "Do you know who this monk is? How dare you talk nonsense here!"
Chen Xiaomu said disdainfully: "I don't care who he is, in short, if you can't get money here, you can't just talk lies with empty teeth!"
Wei Yuxin walked slowly in front of Chen Xiaomu and gave him a thumbs up with a half-smiling expression, "Your Majesty, you are so brave, you didn't even pay attention to Xu Hanqiu, the Laughing Maitreya who made everyone in the world change their minds when they heard about it! ":
Listening to what Wei Yuxin said, Chen Xiaomu really remembered the image of the short, fat and giggly Maitreya Buddha enshrined in the temple, and couldn't help but laugh: "Who gave the name Laughing Maitreya? Damn it!" Weird image!"
Seeing Chen Xiaomu's expression of not knowing whether to live or die, Wei Yu couldn't help but squinted his eyes and said coldly: "Fortunately, you met Xiao Maitreya Xu Hanqiu today. If you met the magic sword god Nidin Xiaohua, I would kill you with one knife." Yes, I see you can still laugh! "
To be honest, Chen Xiaomu really didn't take these masters to heart. In this era of cold weapons, these people are undoubtedly the kings in terms of fighting skills and physical strength. However, Chen Xiaomu himself has traveled through the era of aircraft, cannons, and atomic bombs. What's more, he also carries a quantum knife from an alien planet given to him by the old skeleton lady. Its lethality is almost limitless. Everything in the light of the sword is wiped out in ashes because he forgot to learn how to control it from the old skeleton lady. Knife, so now he is afraid of hurting innocent people, so he dare not take it out and use it easily. However, Chen Xiaomu now also urgently feels that he needs a self-defense weapon that is easy to carry and easy to hand, otherwise he will be a little bit of a three-legged cat in this world. Even the gangsters could beat themselves to pieces. The first thing Chen Xiaomu thought of was a pistol with a relatively simple structure. But in his mind, it was simple. In fact, the firing pin made of vertical steel in the pistol could not be used now. Solution, in the world he is in now, there is no such thing as steel. Generally, the weapons used to build the Imperial Guards, the elite troops of the imperial court, are produced using a process called ductile iron. This type of iron is harder than pig iron after repeated tempering. The hardness of wrought iron is much better, it is tough and not easy to cut or deform, but it is still several levels worse than steel!
Chen Xiaomu was distracted by his thoughts. Wei Yuxin stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his eyes, saying angrily: "Prince-in-law Chen, why are you always distracted? Did you hear what I said to you?"
"Oh! What did you say?" Chen Xiaomu said with an apologetic smile.
Wei Yuxin glared at Chen Xiaomu and said bitterly: "I said I was leaving. Give me the money you promised me yesterday!"
"What's the hurry?" Chen Xiaomu advised: "What I promised you is all cash. Look at the situation around the princess's house now. Even if you and I go to take out the money, will you be able to take it safely? "
Wei Yuxin was dissatisfied and argued: "Who wants to take cash? After taking out the money, it's not the same if I first call the bank account in the city and exchange it for banknotes and take it away!"
"Haha" Chen Xiaomu shook his head, "Miss Wei, you still think too simply. Even if you can drive these hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to the bank in front of everyone and successfully exchange it for banknotes, what do you think? Isn’t it more convenient to grab bank notes than to grab money?”
"Who dares to snatch it?" Wei Yuxin said angrily, "Whoever bares his teeth, my aunt will pull his head off."
"Awesome!" Chen Xiaomu gave Wei Yuxin a thumbs up, but he changed the topic and grinned: "Miss Wei, if that Sword God Ni you just mentioned comes to steal your money, you will Can you beat others?"
''Magic Sword God Ni! " Wei Yu couldn't help but feel stunned. He thought this was simply unbelievable. He shook his head and said: "Prince Consort Chen, you don't have to scare me. I will decide on your money today. There are only two ways in front of you now, either come with me. Either ride a horse to get the silver, or I will carry you on my back to get the silver. "
"What do you mean?" Chen Xiaomu asked puzzledly.
"Haha" Wei Yuxin sneered and threatened: "It's very simple. If you keep your promise, we will go and take out the money together in a friendly manner. If you are still playing tricks and delaying time, I will have to take your two pieces first." My legs are broken, and then I carry you to take out the money!"
''ah! Chen Xiaomu was so frightened that he jumped up, pointed at Wei Yuxin and shouted in a low voice: "Wei Yuxin, do you know that your behavior is the murder of your husband, which is definitely a capital crime!" "
"Ah, Prince Consort Chen, you scared me to death!" Wei Yuxin pretended to be frightened and threatened: "Since the little lady entered the world, more than a hundred people have died under the sword of the little lady! According to Prince Consort Chen According to the Lord, even if I grow a hundred heads, it won’t be enough to chop it off?”
"Okay, okay, can't I just go get the money and give it to you?" Chen Xiaomu didn't dare to argue anymore, and raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, indicating compromise, otherwise he would be really afraid of this murderous female devil. If you have sex and break your legs, it will be the end of you!
"Well, that's pretty much it." Wei Yuxin's voice suddenly softened a lot, and then he added, "You also have to come back to the master with me!"
''What! "When Chen Xiaomu heard this, he jumped up again, but when he saw Wei Yuxin's cold eyes, he immediately stopped and muttered in a low voice: "Don't you just want money? Why do you need someone again? "
"Haha" Wei Yuxin sneered, "Who just said that he wanted to elope with me?"
"That's it!" Chen Xiaomu's rogue mode automatically turned on at this time. He walked up to Wei Yuxin with a coveted face and said with a smile: "My dear wife, you are pretending to take this money back to the master, but in fact you are planning to elope with me. Bar?"
Wei Yuxin glanced at him, his silky eyes flashed across his eyes, and said softly: "It is a good place to escape from the world of mortals, stay away from the hustle and bustle of the world, and indulge in the mountains and rivers!"
Chen Xiaomu was surprised and said: "You don't really plan to take me out to wander, do you?"
"What do you think?" Wei Yu turned around and looked at Chen Xiaomu, his eyes as gentle as water.
Chen Xiaomu hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said: "I can give you money, but I will never leave with you. If possible, I hope you can stay and help me." "
Wei Yuxin said coldly: "Do you want me to stay and be your princess Zheng's intercourse girl?"
Chen Xiaomu said with a helpless smile: "Miss Wei, you have a rich imagination, how about this and that? Can you stand up to it?"
"Just tell me if you want to come with me." Wei Yuxin didn't want to go around any more roundabout ways, so he simply showed his cards to Chen Xiaomu.
Chen Xiaomu no longer looked like he was making jokes, but had a serious look on his face. He didn't even burp, and replied directly: "I don't want to, I can't live without Princess Qingfeng."
Wei Yu trembled when he heard this, and said angrily with a trembling voice: "You know you can't live without that woman, why do you still come to provoke me?" As he said this, tears could not help but well up in his eyes.
Seeing that Wei Yu's heart was really moved, Chen Xiaomu immediately panicked. After a moment's hesitation, he stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Wei. I'm a bit unruly by nature. I like to stir up trouble with my bad mouth!"
"I'll kill you, you idiot!" Wei Yu unexpectedly pulled out the short knife tied to his leg, put it on Chen Xiaomu's neck, gritted his teeth and cursed, a sharp pain instantly shot through his neck, and when he squinted, he saw The blade of the knife flashed with a terrifying cold light. At this moment, Chen Xiaomu was so scared that his legs were weak, and even his little brother in his crotch felt like peeing.
Chen Xiaomu stiffened his neck and did not dare to move. He forced a smile that he thought was a smile on his face, and his whole body was shaking like chaff. He stammered and advised: "Wei, Wei, Miss, please don't act out of anger. If you die with one stab, you will not be able to come back to life!"
Wei Yuxin scolded in a cold voice: "That's not just right, it saves you from harming other women!"
Chen Xiaomu heard this and quickly defended: "Miss Wei, you have wronged me. I dare to swear to God that apart from being a petty gainer, I have never used force on a woman. Even if a woman voluntarily goes with me, Even if you get close to him, I'll stay away from him!"
"Haha, you'd better keep your lies to lie to ghosts. You're so obsessed with sex all day that you can't even open your eyes, and you're here to lie to your aunt that you're still pregnant!" Wei Yuxin said with a sneer. .
Seeing that Wei Yuxin didn't want to believe it, Chen Xiaomu was really anxious. The blade pressed against the main artery in his neck. It hurt so much that he just sucked in cold air. Wei Yuxin only had to push the knife forward slightly. His life was immediately surrendered. In desperation, Chen Xiaomu's mind flashed, and he smiled and said softly: "Honey, take your short knife away quickly. It's too dangerous to play like this!"
"Wife?" Wei Yuxin was stunned by Chen Xiaomu's call. She didn't expect that Chen Xiaomu would dare to call her like this at this time. However, Wei Yuxin still felt warm in his heart, his hand softened, and he took the short knife from Chen Xiaomu took it off the aorta in his neck and said plaintively: "My enemy, you still dare to be so glib, aren't you afraid that I will kill you in anger?"
Chen Xiaomu looked like a rogue again and said: "What can we do? If we are going to die anyway, it would be more cost-effective to die for a bargain!"
"You... pfft!" Wei Yuxin originally wanted to be coquettish and scare Chen Xiaomu so that he would be less glib in front of her in the future, but he was amused by his words midway.
As a result, Chen Xiaomu felt a lot more relaxed. He boldly said to Wei Yuxin: "Honey, can I ask you to help me?"
"Still barking, still barking! Who is your wife?" Wei Yuxin glared at Chen Xiaomu and said angrily: "If you call me my wife again, be careful and I will cut out your tongue!"
The more Wei Yuxin said this, the less afraid Chen Xiaomu became. He stretched his head in front of Wei Yuxin and shouted twice in succession, "Wife, wife!"
Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, Wei Yuxin grabbed his ear and said coquettishly: "If you want to keep your head, stick out your tongue. See if I don't cut your tongue today!"
Chen Xiaomu didn't beg for mercy. He shouted, "Ouch, ouch, ouch," and he simply opened his hands and hugged Wei Yuxin's waist tightly. Wei Yuxin was startled by Chen Xiaomu's sudden operation and quickly let go. The hand holding the ear slapped Chen Xiaomu's back while shouting: "I'm going to die!" Let go now, or I will really kill you! "
