Chapter 224 We Don’t Do Robbery
Zhao Qiaoniang looked at him and asked, "What exactly does a witch god do?"
The man said, "Witch gods have the ability to predict the future. They will tell us some important information so that we can make money."
"Hmm? Making money? What important information will they tell you?"
"For example, last month, he told us that a rich man was going to pass by here. Later, we went there and really saw that rich man."
Zhao Qiaoniang looked at him and asked, "Oh? What a coincidence! What happened next?"
"This... Later we simply kidnapped that family and gave all their belongings to the Witch God," said the man.
Zhao Qiaoniang smiled faintly. It seemed that this witch god was not a good thing. What a witch god!
I guess he found out the whereabouts of these people from somewhere, and then ordered his men to rob them directly, and all the looted items had to be handed over to the government.
"You... stop laughing. There are so many things like this. The Witch God can calculate many things in detail.
He can even figure out our family situation." The man had complete faith in the witch god.
Zhao Qiaoniang looked at him and asked, "When did this witch god come into being?"
"About half a year ago! The witch in our village said she knew the whereabouts of the witch god, and later took us there.
"But as far as I know, there are twelve such witch gods, representing the twelve zodiac animals. They exist not only here but also in other places." The man explained.
He continued, "I advise you to put down your butcher knives and follow me to meet the Witch God. Actually, the Witch God is very easy to talk to. He likes people with ability the most."
Zhao Qiaoniang looked at him and said, "What's the use of witches and gods? Now that you've seen what we look like, we can't let you stay."
The man fell to his knees with a thud: "I was wrong, I was really wrong. Please don't kill me. I have an 80-year-old mother and a few-year-old child."
Zhao Qiaoniang looked at him and said, "Tie him to the tree. If he survives, it's his own ability. If he doesn't, it's not our fault."
This man wasn't a good person either. Mulan looked at Zhao Qiaoniang and said, "Qiaoniang, what should we say now?"
"He wants to kill us, so why should we let him go? Let's go, this guy must have food." After Zhao Qiaoniang said this, she led them back.
At night, the guards smelled the fragrance of flowers, and then fell to the ground with a "bang bang bang..."
Zhao Qiaoniang kicked these people and heard someone inside say, "What's going on outside? Can't we sleep tonight?"
But with a "bang", he fell to the ground. Zhao Qiaoniang led people into the cave. In the cave, charcoal fire flickered and it was warm.
The interior of the cave is quite spacious, with a bed placed inside and a silk blanket on the floor. It is warm to the touch, with exquisite patterns, and it glows softly under the firelight.
Not far away, dozens of bags of grain were piled up in stacks, and no one knew where they came from.
Zhao Qiaoniang walked to the bed curiously, pulled aside the curtains, and saw boxes neatly arranged under the bed.
She opened one of the boxes, which was filled with exquisite quilts. The brocade fabric was embroidered with delicate patterns and fine stitches.
Zhao Qiaoniang reached out to another box and slowly opened it. In an instant, the box was filled with dazzling light, and gold, silver and jewelry complemented each other.
Inside the box, there are a dazzling array of gold, silver and jewelry, including simple and heavy gold bars, exquisitely carved golden Buddha statues, and exquisitely crafted gold and jade ornaments.
The silverware includes engraved silver plates, exquisitely carved silver locks, and elegantly shaped silver wine utensils.
Among jewelry, necklaces made of pearls are as bright as moonlight, round and smooth.
The ruby ring is like a burning red flame, bright and dazzling.
The sapphire earrings are like the deep ocean, blue and quiet, and the jade bracelet is emerald green.
She waved her hand and said, "Take all these things, and the food, and let's retreat."
They were very fast. They picked up everything they could in the time it took to stick up an incense stick, and then the group of people rushed down the mountain.
Master Bai saw their full backpacks and the things in their hands and said, "Let's go, let's retreat quickly. We can't stay here for long."
Li Dongyang looked at the two carts full of food, his expression a little dazed. "Baiyin, what are you guys doing? Are you guys going to rob people?"
Baiyin stroked his beard and said, "Don't talk nonsense. We don't engage in robbery..."
"That's good, that's good. I thought I was going back to my old job, but you don't know that I had no choice but to become a bandit." Li Dongyang sighed.
Bai Yin said calmly, "We usually rob those who rob us. If anyone is against us, we will rob him."
Zhao Qiaoniang nodded and said:
"Uncle Bai, this mountain is full of pagans.
They claim to be some kind of sorcerer god, capable of controlling the wind and rain, and some people actually believe them.”
Baiyin sighed and said:
"The world is really in chaos nowadays. Those pagans are just trying to make it easier to rob people.
They don't come forward themselves, but try to get some people to come forward, while they sit back and reap the benefits."
Lin Wanwan listened and thought, isn’t this the most primitive pyramid scheme?
You don't need anything, and there are people who will work hard for you.
Li Dongyang looked at Bai Yin and said, "Old Bai, you are still the same dog as always."
"Bah! If I wasn't a bit of a dog, I would have been killed long ago. How could I have survived until now?"
Li Dongyang sighed and said, "I feel sorry for your two boys and girl. Otherwise, your eldest one might be..."
Silver's nose felt sore:
"Why are you saying this? I just want to find my daughter right now. They are useless.
Isn't he just a eunuch? What's wrong with being a eunuch? Why are you so upset? "
Li Dongyang sighed:
"Forget it, forget it, your eldest daughter-in-law turned out to be a good girl and got married again.
Poor little daughter-in-law of yours, she's having a hard time in Bianjing now."
Bai Yin nodded and said, "We'll discuss this when we get to Bian Jing!"
A group of people traveled all night, taking the more remote paths.
Along the way, you will still encounter people who fall down due to hunger on the roadside, and Mrs. Bai will help to rescue them.
After stumbling along the way for more than ten days, we finally arrived at Luoyang City.
Master Bai stroked his beard and said:
"Luoyang City is named for its location on the south bank of a great river. It was once a battleground for military strategists, with countless heroes shed their blood here just to gain control of this fertile land.
It is also a hub for trade, connecting to the ocean in the east, the desert in the west, the barbarians in the south, and the grasslands in the north. Merchants from all over the world gather here with rare treasures, silks, spices and medicinal herbs, making the prosperous scene of Luoyang City famous far and wide.
"Once upon a time, a monarch recruited talented people here, and a large number of schools and learning flourished here, making it a palace of culture. This splendor lasted for thousands of years, and only then did the city of Luoyang come into being today."
Li Dongyang nodded and said, "Luoyang will probably be even more prosperous now. We can take a good rest then."
