Troubled times: Start practicing spiritual practice by taking care of your sister-in-law

Chapter 26 Robbery, solution

Chen Mo weighed the scraps of silver, and estimated that there was not even half a tael. If converted, it would be equivalent to three hundred coins.

Don’t be fooled by those heroes in movies and TV shows who only charge dozens or hundreds of taels.

In the Song Dynasty, one tael of silver was worth a thousand coins.

In peacetime, more than 200 kilograms of rice can be purchased.

If you save some food, it can feed one person for a year and a half.

The weight of silver ingots is also based on one tael, five taels, and twelve taels.

If you take ten taels of silver to eat, you won't be able to find it in any ordinary restaurant or restaurant.

"hiss"

Chen Mo took a breath of cold air, raised his hand to weigh it, and found that the injury on his back was involved. It hurt, so he touched it with his backhand. His hand was sticky and there was blood.

Not only that, his bag of corn was torn and the corn was scattered on the ground.

Chen Mo's face darkened, and a trace of anger appeared in his eyes.

"There will be such a day"

He could only go to the grain store to buy some more corn, and go to the drug store to grab some medicine to stop bleeding.

Then without staying any longer, he walked out of the city.

When he was about to leave the city, Chen Mo couldn't help but glance at the two people squatting in the corner. When he entered the city just now, he saw the two squatting here. Now when he left the city, he still saw the two squatting here. .

Even in this cold weather, I am not afraid of freezing.

What he didn't know was that as soon as he left, a tall and thin man came in front of the two people. After muttering a few words to the two of them, the three of them chased in the direction where Chen Mo left.

A vendor setting up a stall inside the city gate saw this scene and discussed it with the vendors next to him.

"Hey, Lezi and the others have got their target right. That person is in trouble."

"No, that man looked injured, and he was carrying so many things in big and small bags. He was like a fat sheep."

"That man is out of the city right now. He is probably not from the city. Even if he is robbed, the government will not care."

"Come on, haven't you heard? If it weren't for the cold weather, the rebels would have fought to Qingzhou. But when spring comes next year, I'm afraid they will still fight. Now that I heard about the murder outside the city, the yamen doesn't want to take care of it anymore. .”

……

"Someone is following!"

After becoming a warrior, Chen Mo's body's senses were much stronger than before.

It was completely silent outside the city, a vast expanse of white. There was only the sound of wind and snow in my ears, and my feet made a "plop" sound in the snow.

Chen Mo glanced back from the corner of his eye and quickened his pace.

"Boss, that kid seems to have discovered us."

"Follow quickly, don't let him get away."

Chen Mo left the official road, walked into a small road, and entered a mountain wilderness.

This is far away from the county seat.

Chen Mo calmly put down the food, took off the hatchet from his waist, put the handle on, and put the pestle on the ground and tightened it.

In fact, when Chen Mo bought so much food, he was worried about being watched.

But his family is not in the county town, so it is impossible to come to the county town to buy something. He can't afford the entry fee, so he can only do some shopping.

He is not worried about being targeted by someone stronger than him.

After all, people who were stronger than him would not look down on this little food, and he did not attract any enemies in the city.

Seeing that Chen Mo stopped and refused to leave, the three of them slowly surrounded him.

"You kid will really find a good place for yourself." The leader of the gangster had rich experience in fighting. He did not rush to get close to Chen Mo. He took out the dagger from his belt, stopped about ten feet away, and sneered: "This place, even if it is called If you break your voice, no one will hear you."

The two accomplices on the side also stopped one after another. It seemed that this was not the first time they had done this. They separated in a triangle and surrounded Chen Mo.

"Boy, hand over everything you have on you. We are only looking for money, not life. Be more honest and you will suffer less..."

The leper hasn't finished speaking yet.

Chen Moren didn't say much, turned around, took two steps forward, and struck the leper with a knife.

"No." Lezi dodges quickly, but then a frightening scene occurs. The hatchet is obviously still half a foot away from him, but Lezi feels an invisible force falling on him.

Before he could say anything, his whole body split into two and blood spurted out.

"Ah."

The two accomplices were horrified.

They usually engage in robberies. Occasionally, when they meet someone arrogant, they will show their knives and the other party will become intimidated. But who have seen such a ruthless person as Chen Mo, who will cut him in half as soon as he comes up? Don't be scared anymore.

"kill."

Chen Mo narrowed his eyes and without any hesitation, he chased after the nearest person.

Feeling that the distance was about the same, he stabbed the opponent in the back.

The knife was slashed at an angle, and only half of the shoulder was cut off.

But the result was not bad, he still died under his knife.

The tall, thin man who ran the fastest subconsciously glanced back and was completely frightened when he saw the miserable state of his companions.

The ground is covered with snow, and you can't lift your feet high enough to fall easily.

Just as the tall and thin man turned around, something hit his feet and he fell to the ground hard.

But even if he didn't fall, he couldn't run.

Chen Mo walked step by step.

He crawled back: "Don't kill me. I was wrong. Spare my life."

"Do not be silly."

Chen Mo was already holding a ball of fire in his stomach and had no place to release it, so they just wanted to hit the muzzle of the gun.

"don't want."

Chen Mo lowered his sword and his voice suddenly stopped.

Chen Mo's eyes were very calm when he killed this time, just like killing a chicken.

He even thought it was easier than killing a chicken.

He knelt down and wiped the blood off the knife with the tall man's clothes. Then he groped around on the other person's body and found an inner pocket sewn inside.

Opening the inner pocket, there was a voucher containing 21 cents.

The evidence shows that the man's name is Yi Yong and he is from Yijiazhuang.

Then, he rummaged around on the other two corpses and found two vouchers, a total of seventy cents, a piece of broken silver the size of the thumbnail, a pancake frozen like a stone, and a dagger.

"They're all poor people."

Chen Mo tore all the evidence into pieces, put the dagger in his waistband, put the others in his arms, dug a hole, stained their faces, threw them into the hole, and filled it with soil and snow.

After finishing the processing, Chen Mo carried his food on his back, set off again, and quickly returned home.

……

It gets dark very quickly in winter.

When he returned to the village, every household was still awake. Some people saw the large and small bags of food Chen Mo was carrying, and their faces were full of envy.

But for fear of Chen Mo, no one dared to think wrongly.

In the Chen family, the doors and windows are closed.

Boom boom boom!
Chen Mo knocked on the door.

"Who?" Han Anniang asked warily, took the hatchet from the side and stood at the door.

"Sister-in-law, it's me."

Hearing Chen Mo's voice, Han Anniang breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly opened the door, let Chen Mo in, closed the door, and closed it again from the inside.

"Uncle, are you back? Why are you so late? Nujia..." Han Anniang said nonchalantly, helping Chen Mo take off the food he was carrying. As soon as he took the bag of coarse salt, it fell to the ground with a thud. , fortunately the mouth of the bag has been tied tightly.

"Uncle, the wound on your back." Han Anniang covered her mouth and pointed at Chen Mo's back, her eyes red.
