Chapter 14 Story
"If you can't even figure out the relationship between these three people, how they colluded, and how they stole things, then let's report it to the official."

Jiang Li said this when faced with questions from several monks who came over.

She was also betting that the fallen monk was just a black sheep and the temple didn't know it.

A man who looked like a steward came out of the monks, wearing a yellow monk's robe.He was very fat, his eyes were narrowed into slits, and he was smiling.

The yellow-robed monk bowed his head to Jiang Li and said.

"Donor, this matter is due to the negligence of the supervision of my temple."

"You don't want others to know that your temple is harboring thieves, right? There are so many pilgrims outside. So if I blackmail you and you want us to shut up and not talk about it, you have to let us take away the pile of money. Do you have any objections? ?”

Those who were surprised by what Jiang Li said were not only the monks, but also the Third Master.

The third master wanted to give Jiang Li a round of applause at this time, but he still had to hold on to the door frame to stand up, and his other hand was holding a broken wooden leg and iron shoes.The other two people were looking after Li Daniu who fainted at this time.

The Lantern Festival is approaching, and there are many people out to play, so naturally they bring a lot of money. The total items on the table are worth a bonus of 100 taels.

The yellow-robed monk was still smiling.

"Ill-gotten wealth naturally does not belong to the small temple."

"Then I'll take it as your promise."

"Amitabha."

The yellow-robed monk took a step to the side, and several monks also made a way for these people to go out.

The Third Master winked at Xiao Liu, and Xiao Liu went to get the pile of treasures.

At this time, Jiang Li asked the yellow-robed monk again.

"Master, did you see my unconscious companion behind me? Seriously injured. Pay compensation."

"Didn't I give you all that pile of treasure?"

The yellow-robed monk's eyes widened.

Jiang Li waved his hand.

"That's what I blackmailed you for. Third brother! Lift your legs."

After the third master heard this, he lifted up the broken leg.The wood has been broken, only the stubble remains.

Jiang Li pointed to the broken leg of the third master and said to the yellow-robed monk.

"Did you see? My brother's legs were broken and he can't walk."

"His legs are made of wood! They were already broken!"

The yellow-robed monk no longer looked like a master at all.Jiang Li still refused to give up.

"I'm just asking you if it's broken! If the wooden leg is broken, don't you have to pay for it?"

Jiang Li looked at the yellow-robed monk with a confident expression.The yellow-robed monk also looked at her, his teeth almost breaking.

"How much?"

"how much do you have?"

"...five taels."

"Row."

Jiang Li spoke simply, and the yellow-robed monk suddenly felt that he had said too much.

After taking the money from the yellow-robed monk, Jiang Li supported the third master, Xiaoliu held the money, and Li Sanliang carried Li Daniu on his back, and they went out.

Just as he took a step out, Jiang Li stopped again and looked back at the yellow-robed monk.

Before she could speak, the yellow-robed monk lost his composure again.

"What do you want to do again! I have no money!"

"It's nothing. Even if you are a master, I think you should be very skilled in martial arts, but you can't beat us, right?"

"what happened?"

"If it weren't for the three of them, you wouldn't have to pay for it yourself. You could beat them."

This time, Jiang Li really left.

As for those three people being tied up and beaten, that's another story.

As soon as he walked out of the temple, the third master felt that Jiang Li, who was holding him up, suddenly seemed to have no strength.

"what happened?"

"My first blackmail, my legs are weak."

The three people who were still conscious couldn't help laughing after hearing this.

Jiang Li hammered his trembling legs and looked at the laughing people.

"What's wrong? You are experts, and I didn't steal anything."

"But you did well. You have talent."

"It's also a gift. When I wanted to lose money for the second time, I didn't dare to bargain."

"The five taels will be your starting point. When the boss is away, I will make the decision. The five taels will be your private money."

"...Isn't that a pile of treasure? I thought you wanted these five taels of medical expenses."

After hearing this, the third master threw the prosthetic leg to Jiang Li, and then imitated Jiang Li and clapped.

"You were born to eat this bowl of rice."

After that, they all went back to the noodle shop, and everything was still here.The third boss is also an important labor force. He needs to repair a prosthetic leg, otherwise Jiang Li will have to carry things up the mountain.

So, Jiang Li took Santangjia to the blacksmith shop, Li Sanliang took Li Daniu to the medical clinic, and Xiaoliu looked at things.

On the way to the blacksmith shop, Jiang Li weighed the five taels of silver.

“If you could grab so many every day, you would be so rich.”

"Be content, five taels of silver is quite a lot. This time, the bulk of the money stolen by those thieves is enough to keep you happy in the village for two months."

"Then why don't we just rob thieves?"

"Then you want us to die."

The Third Master shook his head and sighed.Jiang Li has very little experience in the world of martial arts.

So, he and Jiang Li explained.

"There are a lot of rules in the world, especially in the underworld. It is taboo to take advantage of the gangsters. Because if you attack other gangsters, it means that they are allowed to attack you. So the big gangs will consider it before doing anything. Will it affect other gangs? If so, I must apologize and explain clearly."

"But shouldn't we be freer? We are all outlaws."

"It's more free, but you can't follow any rules. The reason why you can rob this time is because they robbed you first. When you rob ordinary people, they basically won't resist, but when you rob gangs, they will do it. .”

Speaking of this, the Third Master thought of something again.

"That one-eyed guy has always said that bandits have nothing but fear. If others are not afraid of you, you are nothing. For gangs and for Jianghu, face is everything. If one of his subordinates is robbed, even if it is just a few copper coins, it will not matter to the gang. For gangs, it's a matter of losing face, so you have to get your face back." "Face is so important."

"And the three people this time may all have some background. The tiger claw finger used by the thief has extraordinary strength, and he may have learned it from his master. The kung fu used by the monk comes from the temple, which is okay. But the one used by the beggar looks like it belongs to the beggar gang. Tricks.”

"Then I got into trouble this time?"

"What are you afraid of? We are bandits and we are not afraid of anything."

What the third master said before and after was not completely consistent. Jiang Li only used the last words to comfort himself.

She understood a little more about things in the world, and she also knew that there were many things she didn't understand.

This kind of thing should be said to other people by the military advisor, not by others.

When they arrived at the blacksmith shop, the blacksmith measured the size of the third master's legs and began to forge.There isn't much that needs to be done, so it can be solved in half an hour.

So, the two of them went to a teahouse not far away for a drink.

Since he was rich, Jiang Li naturally ordered the most expensive tea, but he didn't feel particularly good when he drank it, only feeling a little bitter.

After taking a sip, she asked the third master again.

"I didn't expect your martial arts to be weak."

"I was originally a thief, and I specialized in leg training. Then a group of people caught me, and my leg stepped on a bear trap, and I had to..."

"Didn't you steal something last time?"

"It's all the same. Anyway, after my leg was broken, I've been using that wooden leg. Although my right leg is stronger, I can only use my left leg to kick people now, so I don't need to worry about leg injuries. I can't run fast anymore. It’s still okay to kick people.”

"Tell me, should I also learn martial arts?"

"You? You know immortal magic, so what kind of martial arts do you want to learn?"

"I can't use it at ordinary times. When I used to learn immortal magic, I used various herbs to temper my body. I returned them all when I left. Now I'm almost like an ordinary person."

"Hmm...what do you want to learn?"

"Hard skills can make me invulnerable."

After hearing this, the third master immediately spat out the tea he drank.

"You? Are you a girl who wants to learn hard kung fu? Don't you all like whips, soft kung fu and the like?"

"Judging a book by its cover. Do you think I'm an ordinary woman?"

"...But we don't know how to do hard qigong either."

"Don't you know how to do it, too?"

"This time you judge a book by its appearance. The swordsmanship is practiced by the master."

In Jiang Li's mind, the image of the boss with a sinister face and a fierce look dancing his sword very nimbly appeared in Jiang Li's mind.

After a long time, she said.

"Our copycat village is really against common sense. What did the second master train for? Why is he called the One-Eyed Dragon?"

"He's a cook, and he's good with knives. As for why he's called this nickname, you can ask him yourself when you go back."

Afterwards, they chatted some more and went to get the third master's prosthetic leg.The craftsmen's skills are average and can only be used temporarily. They can go up the mountain and ask the blacksmith in the village to help repair it.

With the money, Jiang Li naturally bought those textbooks and some sundries.

After arriving at the noodle shop, Li Daniu had also woken up. Although his injuries had not healed, he was still the one who carried the most shopping.

It was already afternoon when we returned to the cottage.The others took the things they bought, and the boss also walked out.

"If you don't come back, I will send someone down the mountain."

"I'm here, so why worry. Xiaoliu."

As the Third Master said, Xiao Liu came over and took out all the money extorted this time.

The second master looked at the pile of treasures.

"Are you working overtime?"

He used the words Jiang Li taught him a few days ago.

The Third Master pointed at the proud Jiang Li.

"The military advisor won the first battle. I'll explain it in detail later."

When they arrived at Huwei Hall, since Jiang Li was the protagonist, she told what happened at the foot of the mountain.

The gold content of the perfect composition is there, and everyone listens to it with gusto.

After listening, the first master asked the third master.

"The military advisor just said that you gave the five taels of silver to the military advisor?"

"correct."

"Too stingy. I will count the goods later. [-]% will go to the village, [-]% will go to the brothers, and [-]% will go to the military advisor."

"Thank you, Master."

After the division of the spoils was over, another party was held.Jiang Li calculated in his mind that he would have to go down the mountain to do some shopping in two days.

At this time, someone came over and asked Jiang Li.

"Military advisor, can you tell us what the fairy world is like?"

"That's right, the military counselor just told the story very well."

As soon as these words were said, many people immediately responded, and the third master also held up his wine bowl and booed.

Jiang Li also smiled and took a sip of wine.

"I don't do business at a loss. You see, I even extorted some money when I went down the mountain to buy things."

"The military advisor says whatever you want, I paid for them!"

The second boss also drank a little too much and said while patting his chest.

Jiang Li smiled again.

"I don't want money. The story I want to tell is very long and will take many days. So you have to tell me a story every day. It must be interesting. If it's not interesting, I won't tell it."

"Okay."

Someone in the crowd said something else.

Can you tell an interesting story? They don’t know. They mainly want to hear the story.

Jiang Li took a sip of wine.

What story would she tell?She knew just that story.

"Then let me start. I read this story when I was practicing Taoism. Before the emergence of our world, there were many dynasties. One of them was called the Song Dynasty. Speaking of the reign of Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty..."
