Chapter 90

Those four people seemed to be running fast, but under Jiang Ling's eyes, he had already seen through their deception.

Before the dense fog suddenly rose, the four of them used the earth escape technique to hide in the soil.

Jiang Ling swung the wind with his sleeves to blow away the smoke, but it only took two or three breaths, and they disappeared without a trace in such a short time.At that time, he also felt strange.

Those four people didn't look like people with profound Taoism, at most they had learned some tricks of Laoshan.

So, he opened his eyes, and after a look, he saw the four people hiding under the soil not far ahead.

It is probably because [Earth Dungeon] did not learn well, and could not escape under the soil, so he could only hide in place.

It is estimated that they wanted to wait until Jiangling and the others had left before getting out and escaping.

But Jiang Ling, who has seen through the clues long ago, how could he let the four people who are full of evil deeds go?
The sharpened bamboo sticks stabbed down angrily, piercing the four people on the spot.

Xiaoying Ning didn't know it, and really thought that something dirty was poked to death under the soil.

From the official road to the north, there are horses as legs, and it only takes half a day to arrive at Qingyang County, the gateway of Nanjun County.

As the gateway to South County, Qingyang County is nearly half the size of Linzhou County.

Its population has more than doubled.

The local folk customs are sturdy, and it has always been a major county for the imperial court to recruit soldiers.

When approaching the city gate, a group of guards suddenly stood guard.

There was a leader lying on a chair with a basket beside him.

Anyone who passed by him would consciously take out money and throw it into the basket.

When Jiangling arrived here, there was already a long line in front.

"What's the matter?"

Jiang Ling was curious, so he asked the person in front of him.

From Guobei to Linzhou, he had never seen such a battle in the county.

"Could it be that there are bandits causing disasters, and they are being strictly investigated?"

The man in front had a beard and a butcher's knife on his waist. He was probably a butcher.

He has a fierce face, but a kind disposition. When Jiang Ling asked him, he replied: "I want money when I'm interrogating a son. This thief doesn't do his business. He just guards the gate of the city every day. He has to give money when he comes and goes. The money given is not allowed to go out, nor is it allowed to enter.”

"So overbearing? Where is the king's law?"

The butcher laughed, and said that you, little brother, are naive: "Where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, how can there be any law or not? He is the brother-in-law of the county guard. Who dares to offend? It is the county magistrate. You have to give him seven points. As long as you don't go too far, in this area of ​​Nanjun, no one can do anything to him."

It turned out to be a related household again!

Such a Chinese tradition has a long history.

Jiang Ling: "How much does it cost to enter the city?"

The butcher glanced back at him and laughed, "Based on head count, five cents a head, and a horse ten cents. If you want to go in with a girl, you have to pay twenty cents."

Twenty essays is not too much.

Ordinary people only pay five Wen to go in and out.No one would offend the county sheriff's brother-in-law for such a trivial little money.

The team slowly advanced, and those who couldn't pay were basically driven away on the spot.

In the words of the guard, if you can't even get five cents out, what kind of county are you going to enter?Just go back to the country and stay.

The people naturally had no way to fight, so they could only leave with a sigh.

When it was the butcher's turn, he was quick. He had already prepared five cents, threw it into the basket, and hurried in.

Jiang Ling was right behind him, just about to take out the money.The soldier who was sitting on the chair suddenly raised his eyebrows, looked over Jiangling, and looked Ying Ning up and down.

After looking at it twice, he laughed, and poked the guard around him with his elbow, signaling him to take a look at it too.

The guard complied with his intentions, and when he saw Ying Ning's appearance, he was amazed: "Tsk, I thought that only the capital could have such a fair-skinned and beautiful girl, but I didn't expect to meet them here in a small place by chance. She is indeed beautiful."

Bingtou stroked his chin, already thinking about it.

Seeing that Jiang Ling dropped twenty Wen coins and wanted to enter the door, the guard at the side immediately blocked his way.

"Wait a minute, do you want to go in now?"

Jiang Ling: "Twenty Wen and one Wen are quite a lot."

Bingtou didn't speak, just lying on the chair leisurely.

Smiling, he watched the guard on the side perform for him: "Who told you [-] Wen?"

Jiang Ling: "It's the same with those people in front. One person has five pennies, and one horse has ten pennies. Isn't that right?"

The guard pointed at his horse: "Others are others, you are you, look at your horse, it's dirty and smelly all over the floor, do you think there should be a fee for the cleaning of this horse manure?"

Jiang Ling didn't argue with him, but asked, "How much does it cost to enter this city gate?"

The guard glanced at the soldier's head,
Whether the money is money or not is not the point, the point is that their soldiers have taken a fancy to this girl.Therefore, it must be difficult, and he cannot be made easy.

Only when you are in a dilemma, you will ask for the head of the army. In this way, the reason is justified.

"Five taels of silver." The guard stretched out five fingers.

"Five or two?"

Jiang Ling sneered in his heart, in an ordinary household, five taels of silver would be enough to cover a year's expenses.

Calling out this price is clearly not asking for money, but has other plans.

With the undisguised salivation of the soldiers and guards, it was obvious that they came for Ying Ning's beauty.

"Five taels is five taels."

Jiang Ling suddenly squatted down, and wrapped two pieces of horse manure with a yellow talisman at an extremely fast speed.

With a pinch of the secret formula, under the illusion of spiritual power, horse dung becomes silver taels.

As soon as he threw it away, he fell into the basket.

"Now, can I go in?"

The guard stared blankly, with a surprised expression on his face, this...is this really given?
Since they set up baskets here to collect money, there are almost too many people who have been driven away every day because they couldn't afford five cents.

Some people still can't afford five cents, or they have to complain a few words after taking it.

But this Jiangling didn't hesitate at all, saying that five taels would be five taels, and he didn't blink when he threw out the money.

'Did I say less? '

The guard thought to himself.

As soon as this idea came up, he was kicked in the thigh by the soldier.

This footprint proved his conjecture to be correct.

When he looked back, the soldier was staring at him.

He was also very helpless, five taels, who knew that this person would just give it? !
"Come on."

The soldier opened his mouth.

But just after Jiang Ling took two steps, he pointed to Ying Ning again and said, "She can't pass. Five taels of silver is a person's money, and she hasn't paid it yet, so she can't pass."

One person will charge five taels, and you will be charged a total of ten taels, depending on how happy you are! ?

The guard was startled, and said to himself, sir, it's not appropriate for you to charge too hard, right?

But after all, he dared not say it.

da da da ~~
Suddenly, Jiang Ling stopped, and with a flick of his sleeve, seven ingots of silver were thrown out in succession.

Including the previous ingot, there are a total of eight ingots and 40 taels.

"Needless to say, 40 taels, isn't that a lot?"

Ying Ning frowned, disgusted by the way the soldier and the guard behaved.Even more annoying than the four traffickers before.

If it wasn't for Jiang Ling pulling her, she would have wanted to give these two people a good meal at the gate of the city.

Seeing him handing over 40 taels in one go, Bingtou was not happy, but turned dark: "You have a lot of money?"

Jiang Ling: "If there are many, those who line up behind can all be counted in it. Now, can I go?"

Bingtou pointed his finger at him, made a warning of "you wait for me", then turned his head away and said, "Go away."
