Chapter 246 Liang Xue’s dowry makes her rich again

"what?"

Hearing this, the expressions of the two women changed. Liang Xue became a little panicked. Ning Wan was still calm and said hurriedly: "This is Longmen County. How could the bandits come here? Isn't the master in Shiling?" County?"

"I don't know, little one." The soldier had been staying in Longmen County. When he saw the city gate was broken, he came over to report it as soon as possible. He didn't know what exactly happened ahead.

"Sir, miss, it's not good, there is a group of thieves coming towards the county government office. Let's run away." A government officer rushed in in a panic and said in a panic.

Hearing this, Ning Wan lost her composure. It was no longer possible to hide the panic expression on Duan Ning's gentle face, showing the look of a little woman who is afraid before disaster strikes. She suddenly lost her mind and actually asked the police officer: " Where are you running?"

"Back door, take the back door," the policeman said.

Ning Yuan and Liang Xue both nodded, and the group ran towards the back door.

However, the county government office had long been surrounded by Chen Mo's people.

As soon as Ning Yuan and others opened the back door, a group of soldiers rushed in and surrounded them. The police officers and Yuzhou soldiers quickly threw down their weapons and surrendered.

As Liang Song's legitimate daughter, Liang Xue was naturally not a weak woman without the strength to restrain a chicken. Instead, she was a warrior who was about to enter the seventh level. But at this moment, she was so scared that she hugged Ning Wan's arm.

Because the soldiers surrounding them were holding divine arm crossbows.

"Hurry and report to Chen Shuai, we found two young ladies at the back door of the county government office. Judging from their clothes, they must be of extraordinary status." A team leader in the Divine Guard said to his subordinates.

"promise."

Soon, there was a noise in the distance, and the noise became more and more intense. Liang Xue could even hear the sound of beetle leaves rubbing against each other in her ears.

"Where is he?" A clear voice sounded.

"Chen Shuai, over here."

At this moment, the sky was already a little dark, and firelight appeared in the corridor. A team of more than ten people appeared in front of Ning Yuan.

Wen Heng pointed at Ning Wan and Liang Xue and said, "They are Liang Song's family members. One is his wife and the other is his daughter."

Ning Yuan and Liang Xue quickly lowered their heads, feeling the fiery eyes looking at them.

There was panic in their hearts. They had all heard about the tactics of the bandit army. After the city was broken, it was very common for them to commit adultery with their wives and daughters.

Now that they have fallen into the hands of the bandit army, one can imagine their fate.

Chen Mo briefly looked at the two women. A young woman with a beautiful face was wearing a pink brocade skirt. She didn't know whether she was scared or hot. From Chen Mo's angle, he could see the sweat beads on her neck. It was a bit denser, flowing along the delicate jade-like collarbone towards the soft and snow-white color, soaking the edge of her clothes, making people want to wipe her sweat away.

Next to her was a young woman with a graceful figure and a graceful neck as elegant as a swan. Even with her head lowered, it was obvious that she was a beauty.

"Raise your head." Chen Mo said coldly.

The two women didn't know who Chen Mo was talking to, so they didn't look up.

"Clap."

Chen Mo raised the Tang sword and used the scabbard to lift Liang Xue's chin.

The woman is in her prime, her face is like a blooming flower, exuding charming charm. Her eyes are flowing like autumn water, with a trace of charming charm, but more importantly, she can't hide the panic.

Liang Xue also glanced at Chen Mo, and was shocked. The young man's eyes were like two sharp arrows, and the blood spattered on his face exuded a chilling chill. His tall and strong figure looked domineering against the background of the armor. overflow.

As a daughter of the Liang family, Liang Xue's father was the prefect of Yuzhou. As a married woman, the men she met were all her father's subordinates. Out of courtesy and respect, no one would raise their head and stare at her.

But at this moment, she only felt as if she was being stared at by a man-eating tiger. Her heartbeat was racing, her breathing was difficult, her charming face was pale, and her legs were shaking uncontrollably. She was so frightened that she quickly ducked away and lowered her head.

"Take them away." Chen Mo waved his hand, and the brave guards immediately stepped forward to capture the two women.

Liang Xue thought that the young man was going to take him to do something bad. She was very nervous. Even when she resisted, Chen Moke didn't take it easy at all. He took a step forward and knocked him out with a knife. past.

Ning Wan, who also wanted to resist, turned pale with fear when she saw this scene, and said in a panic: "What do you want to do? If you mess around, I won't let you go."

Chen Mo ignored her and asked people to take the two girls down and keep them under guard.

"Chen Shuai, you're rich, you're rich." At this moment, a brave guard soldier ran over happily. Chen Mo knew him. The latter's name was Zhang Fusheng, who was also an old man in the army.

Zhang Fusheng came to Chen Mo and said slightly excitedly: "Chen Shuai, we found a whole room of treasures in the backyard."

Chen Mo raised his eyebrows.

Under the leadership of Zhang Fusheng, Chen Mo came to the room.

Zhang Fusheng was right, it was indeed a room, because the boxes were piled up all over the room, making it impossible to get in.

The outermost box was pried open by the brave guards, and inside were pieces of golden cakes.

The surrounding soldiers' eyes were gleaming. If it were not for strict military discipline, they would have started looting by now.

"There will be rewards when it's over. Come and move all these boxes out." Chen Mo ordered.

As heavy boxes were moved out of the room one by one, Chen Mo opened them one by one.

In addition to gold cakes, there are also gold ingots, silver ingots, gold tea tubes, silver tea tubes, gold pots, silver pots, and gold and silver basins.

In addition to gold and silver, there are thousands of silks and satins, countless jades, enamel plates with auspicious dragons and phoenixes, and famous calligraphy and paintings.

The most important thing is that there is also a box of land and house deeds in Hexi.

Even though Chen Mo had seen many big scenes, he still couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he saw this scene.

After digging out the box at the back, I found a sewing box, albizia quilt, a mandarin duck pillow, a wedding basin, a wedding comb and other items. Chen Mo was a little surprised and said: "Isn't this just a dowry?"

"I heard that Liang Xue, Liang Song's daughter, is engaged to Prince Chong. She seems to be getting married soon. Because of the war in Hedong, it has been delayed." Wen Heng said from the side.

After realizing that it was really just a dowry, Chen Mo was dumbfounded.

This is too grand.

Although the inventory has not yet been carried out, Chen Mo guessed that even the combined wealth of Lu Yonggang and Yang Minggui was not as large as the betrothal gifts in front of him.

"Chen Shuai, what is this?" A brave guard dug out a brocade box from a pile of silk and satin. When he opened the brocade box, there was actually a red radish root inside.

After seeing it, Chen Mo felt a surge in his heart. Wen Heng next to him couldn't help but said: "Blood ginseng!"

Yes, this red radish root is blood ginseng. Chen Mo snatched one from the Wang family. After taking it, his skill experience increased by more than a thousand points.

The blood ginseng in front of me is several times the size of the blood ginseng in the Wang family.

Chen Mo came closer and smelled it, and suddenly felt the blood surge in his body.

Chen Mo closed the brocade box and ordered: "Look quickly to see if there is anything left."

"promise."

After that, nine more blood ginseng roots were found, which were of the same size.

Chen Mo collected the ten blood ginseng by himself.

"Quickly count and seal them."

Chen Mo gave an order and went down with ten blood ginseng.

He found an empty room, opened a brocade box, picked up the blood ginseng inside, and started nibbling on it.

After taking a bite, the slightly shriveled blood ginseng immediately oozed blood-red juice.

[The number of blood-supplementing meals +10, the experience of Ziyang Huayuan Gong +10. 】

Chen Mo frowned slightly. If he remembered correctly, it seemed that he didn't have as much experience as the first time he ate blood ginseng.

He took another bite, chewed it a few times, and then swallowed it.

[The number of blood-supplementing meals +9, the experience of Ziyang Huayuan Gong +9. 】

Chen Mo: "???"

Another bite.

[The number of blood-supplementing meals +8, the experience of Ziyang Huayuan Gong +8. 】

Chen Mo was dumbfounded. The more he ate, the less experience he gained.

After eating the whole blood ginseng, the experience only increased by about 300.

Just when he was confused, the voice of a brave guard sounded outside: "Chen Shuai, Captain Xia is looking for you?"

Xia Zhining's position in the army is squad leader.

Chen Mo's eyes flickered and he said, "Let her come over."

"promise."

Soon, Xia Zhining, who was wearing light armor, opened the door and walked in, looking vigorous and resolute, and said: "The enemy's family members have been centralized and controlled."

Chen Mo nodded, waved to Xia Zhining, and then opened one of the brocade boxes, revealing the blood ginseng inside.

"Blood ginseng!" Xia Zhining recognized it at a glance and exclaimed.

"Yes, these boxes are all filled with blood ginseng." Chen Mo replied.

Xia Zhining looked surprised: "Where did you get so many blood ginseng?"

"What I found out from the yamen, I heard from Wen Heng, it should be the dowry Liang Song prepared for his daughter. Now it's all at my advantage. Zhining, you didn't see it. The dowry is piled up all over the room. In the box "Pretend" Chen Mo shared his joy with Xia Zhining.

"The Liang family is one of the seven famous families. The person Liang Xue is going to marry is also one of the royal family. There have always been many wedding etiquettes. It is not surprising to have this dowry." Xia Zhining said calmly: "Since there is a dowry, then a betrothal gift is indispensable. Did you find the betrothal gift?"

"Yes."

Chen Mo was so overwhelmed with joy that he completely forgot about this. Since there was a dowry, there must be a betrothal gift. As the betrothal gift for the crown prince of Prince Chong, it would naturally not be shabby.

He summoned the brave guards and asked them to search carefully.

"By the way, Zhining, let me ask you something." Chen Mo told Xia Zhining his feedback about eating blood ginseng just now, and said softly: "I ate blood ginseng this time, and I felt that my blood energy was not as improved as last time."

"This is normal. Blood ginseng is medicine, and it is used by warriors to break through bottlenecks. In addition to the great effect when swallowed for the first time, the more you eat later, the less improvement you will get. Therefore, for warriors, if they obtain blood ginseng , will not be used for daily practice, but will be used when a breakthrough is about to occur. You are simply wasting a natural resource." Xia Zhining rolled her eyes at Chen Mo.

Chen Mo understood that blood ginseng was resistant to antibiotics. He would not eat it when nothing happened, but would wait until a critical breakthrough.
