Taoist Myth: I am the last true immortal in the world

Chapter 95 Ten thousand taels of silver
Everyone outside the window looked at Chen Yun in surprise.

Like the big tree in front of me, which is as thick as the mouth of a bowl of sea, even a strong farmer holding a sharp ax would take about half an hour to successfully chop it down.

And now, Chen Xianchang just tested the power of the spell and cut it off?

Everyone couldn't help but become interested. What kind of magic is so powerful?
But you can’t ask directly about this kind of thing.

Zhang Chengfan was so cunning after all, he immediately had an idea as soon as he rolled his eyes.

He bowed his head and said in salute: "I have met Chen Xianchang. During the day, I went out to trace the whereabouts of the Huangchaocao thief. I neglected Chen Xianchang. I hope I can forgive you."

Chen Yun waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter."

Zhang Chengfan showed his fox tail, "It just so happens that Chen Xianchang hasn't had a rest yet, how about we have a late-night snack together? I've asked someone to prepare some wine and food. Can Chen Xianchang have a drink with us?"

Chen Yun didn't like to deal with people, but today Zhang Chengfan, Wang Shihui and others sent troops to help him destroy Liu Guibai. Now he took the initiative to invite him to have supper together. It would be too pretentious if he didn't show favor.

He thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let's call my senior brother Zhang and join us."

……

Backyard, dining room.

A group of people sit around a table.

There are more than a dozen delicacies from the mountains and seas placed on it.

Such as steamed bear paw, steamed large yellow croaker, abalone and so on.

You must know that this is an inland area, so it is easier to eat mountain delicacies, such as large yellow croaker and abalone, which are very rare.

I have to say that these officials really enjoy themselves.

Zhang Chengfan pointed at the big yellow croaker with a smile on his face and said, "Chen Xianchang, kingfish is the most delicacy in the world. Can you and Zhang Xianchang try it?"

Chen Yun nodded and said, "Okay, thank you, General Zhang."

As he spoke, he picked up a large yellow croaker with chopsticks and ate it, a delicious taste bursting from his taste buds.

After seeing him eating, Zhang Qian followed up and picked up a piece of fish.

Immediately, Zhang Qian couldn't help but praise, "As General Zhang said, this is the best delicacy in the world."

Wang Shihui smiled and said: "Du Fu, the poet saint, once composed a poem about the kingfish, but it is a pity that he has passed away long ago, and we are not versed in poetry, otherwise we would definitely have to compose a poem tonight."

Chen Yun smiled and said: "I actually heard a poet write a poem about totoaba, but you may not have heard of it."

"Oh?" Sun Chong, as a scholar, was the first to say, "I would like to ask Chen Xian to come."

Zhang Chengfan, Wang Shihui, Zhao Ke and others also watched intently.

Chen Yun recalled for a moment and said: "Yellow croaker is steamed and melted with cinnamon seeds, and fresh pink-skinned white lotus roots appear. The poems in the sound of the phoenix flute are far away, and the bright candle of God's will shines on me."

"Good! What a poem!" Sun Zhong couldn't help but clapped his hands and cheered.

Zhang Chengfan and Wang Shihui's literary attainments were not that high, but they could tell that the poem was indeed good, and they all nodded slightly.

Only Zhao Ke, a rough man, looked confused when he heard this. He could only hear cinnamon seeds, pink bark and white lotus root in his ears, and could not understand anything else.

Maybe it’s because a poem triggered everyone’s emotions.

Next, Sun Chong and Zhang Chengfan also tried to write a poem each.

After three rounds of drinking, everyone was tipsy.

At this time, Zhao Ke asked curiously due to his drunkenness: "Chen Xianchang, what kind of spell did you test just now, and you actually cut down a big tree at once?"

Hearing this, Zhang Qian, Sun Chong, Zhang Chengfan and Wang Shihui all pricked up their ears.

Chen Yun took a few sips of wine and became a little drunk. He smiled and said, "This is the magic weapon."

After saying this, a cold light suddenly rose in the candlelight.

Everyone looked anxiously and saw a flying needle as long as a finger and radiating cold light suspended in the air.

"Ah, this needle can still fly in mid-air?" Zhang Chengfan said slightly surprised.

Wang Shihui said with admiration in his eyes: "The Immortal Family's magic weapon is really unusual."

Zhao Ke and Sun Zhong also felt it was very magical and kept looking at the flying needle.

Only Zhang Qian had seen it, and he showed fear when he saw this flying needle. It was a powerful magic weapon that even two to three hundred elites could not do anything about!
"It's amazing that this needle can fly in the air." Zhao Ke blinked and said in confusion: "It's just this needle, but it can actually cut off a big tree?"

Chen Yun laughed loudly, "General Zhao, you don't know how powerful this flying needle is. I'll let you take a look."

After saying this, his consciousness drove the flying needle to quickly pierce the stone at the door.

A whooshing sound broke through the air.

Immediately afterwards, everyone saw the cold light flying back into the stone.

But the rocks in front of him showed no reaction.Zhao Ke was a little puzzled and said: "Chen Xianchang, this..."

Before he finished speaking, the stone split apart with a "click".

Everyone hurriedly looked around with the help of the moonlight, and then all took a breath!

It was as if the inside of the stone had been shattered by some huge force, so it broke apart.

Zhang Chengfan couldn't help but exclaimed: "Hey, such a big stone will split when it is stabbed. What if it pierces a human body?"

Wang Shihui's pupils shrank and he said, "Even if you are wearing iron armor, I'm afraid it will be difficult to offset the power."

Zhao Ke's eyes widened even more, as if he couldn't believe that the power of a needle was so terrifying.

Sun Zhong also wiped his cold sweat and complimented: "The immortal soldiers of the Xian family are really not something that mortals like us can understand. Master Chen, please accept the magic soldiers."

Chen Yun then stretched out his hand and the flying needle suddenly penetrated into his sleeve and disappeared.

At this time, the three generals Zhang Chengfan, Wang Shihui and Zhao Ke were even more enthusiastic about Chen Yun.

When such a ferocious magic weapon is used on the battlefield, no one can resist it.

Now the Tang Army is fighting with Huang Chao Army in full swing.

These generals are all thinking, if they encounter a fierce general who cannot be solved on the battlefield and ask Chen Yun to take action, wouldn't it be easy to capture him?
Because of this, several people gathered around Chen Yun to praise him.

Why, Chen Xianchang, you are so awesome.

What a worthy disciple of the Holy One.

Anyway, it was a blast.

Finally, the supper was coming to an end.

Zhang Chengfan's face turned red after drinking. He burped and said: "Chen Xianchang, this time I went to exterminate the Yellow Turban thieves and found a lot of gold and silver jewelry in the farm. You are the main force this time. General Wang and I will After discussing it with General Zhao and Magistrate Sun, we decided that except for a part of it that would be handed over to the court, the rest would be given to you, Chen Xianchang."

Chen Yun didn't have much desire for gold and silver treasures, but this time he was indeed the main force, and he also made achievements for several generals and Sun Zhixian. He couldn't justify not taking this money, which was considered a trophy.

So he didn't refuse, but asked curiously, "How much money were found in the den of thieves?"

Zhang Chengfan held out three fingers and said, "The gold, silver and jewelry are equivalent to about 3000 taels of gold!"

Zhang Gan was shocked and said: "The Yellow Turban Thief is so rich?"

Chen Yun was also a little surprised, 3000 taels of gold is 3 taels of silver!
Wang Shihui laughed and said: "These yellow turban thieves secretly feed the dead soldiers. How can they do it without money? The annual salary for the soldiers in my court is twelve pieces of silk cloth and twelve stones of millet. In the past, one piece of silk cloth was two hundred yuan, but now The price of horses has doubled during the war, and has reached 33 yuan per horse. In the past, a bushel of millet cost 40 yuan, but now it has skyrocketed to 4000 yuan, and six bushels of millet cost one stone. How much does a soldier need to pay per year? But 3000 taels of silver, this is still wages. Daily expenses, food, clothing, all added up to [-] taels of silver. There are more than a hundred thieves. Just for wages and food, it costs [-] taels of silver a year. , In addition, buying weapons and the like is the big deal, [-] taels of gold is really not much."

After hearing this, Chen Yun was convinced. Indeed, raising soldiers in ancient times cost the most money.

Having said this, Wang Shihui squinted his eyes and smiled, "I have left 1000 taels of gold for Chen Xianchang."

Zhang Chengfan added, "I have a house in Luoyang that is empty and uninhabited. It is a waste. I heard that Chen Xianchang wants to go to Luoyang and is afraid that he will have no place to live, so I donated my house to Chen Xianchang."

A slightly larger house in the capital of the Tang Dynasty would start at [-] yuan.

Generally speaking, a house for a person of Zhang Chengfan's level would cost at least 30 to [-] yuan, which would be several thousand taels of silver.

Chen Yun certainly understood that Zhang Chengfan, Wang Shihui and others were trying to curry favor with him.

If it were the original, he would definitely refuse without saying a word. After all, he doesn't have much desire for money.

But now people are obviously fawning over you. If you refuse at this time, wouldn’t you slap them in the face?
Furthermore, Chen Yun considered that his good brother Zhang Qian would develop in Luoyang and did not have a place to live yet. If he accepted this house, it would at least give Zhang Qian a place to stay.

After thinking for a moment, he did not refuse, but stood up and saluted: "Thank you, generals."

"Don't dare, don't dare."

"Chang Chen, please don't be so polite."

Zhang Chengfan, Wang Shihui, Zhao Ke and others quickly stood up and returned the greeting.

They were so happy to see Chen Yun willing to accept "flattery".

Later, Zhang Chengfan asked people to bring flying money and land deeds as gifts to Chen Yun.

Feiqian is the predecessor of Jiaozi, which is a kind of note issued by the government and used to transfer commercial funds.

To put it simply, it is an exchange coupon. As long as you take the flying money to the designated department to combine the coupons, you can withdraw money with the same value as the face value.

Chen Yun never thought that just to eliminate Liu Guibai, he would unexpectedly gain thousands of taels of silver and a mansion worth thousands of taels of silver.

Although he didn't care about mortal possessions, this was an unexpected surprise.

Chen Yun is very satisfied with this harvest.

Of course, he didn't pay much attention to flying money and land deeds.

At this moment, Chen Yun just wanted to rush to Luoyang to return the Zhong Kui Talisman, and then return to Xigou City to seek revenge from Lin Feiyun!
