Chapter 364 The advantage is mine!

April 14th!

Xiaoqing read aloud the time given by Fahai, looked at Gu Qing, and said, "What address should we choose?"

Fahai provides the time, Gu Qing provides the location, and the two sides will have a good fight.

"secret."

Gu Qing said.

Since Fahai could use the golden alms bowl to spy on the screen, Gu Qing planned to hide himself first, so as to catch Fahai off guard.

After returning from Changming Temple, Gu Qing first went to see Li Gongfu. He had only suffered superficial injuries and no internal damage. The wound medicine Gu Qing had given him was already effective, and he had also applied a pain reliever made from snake venom. Now his complexion had improved significantly.

"I can only accept my bad luck in this matter."

Li Gongfu lay on the bed and said bitterly, "It's my fault for not being able to escape."

Gu Qing smiled upon hearing this and said, "Once you're better, I'll teach you a set of walking skills that will come in handy whether you're catching criminals or escaping for your life."

Gu Qing knew a wide variety of light-body techniques. After mastering the principles of all techniques, he could now design a cultivation path for Li Gongfu and create a set of light-body techniques suitable for him with almost no effort.

"Master Gu."

Pei Yaoqin, who was standing to the side, quickly said, "Hanwen is also physically weak. If you know kung fu, let him learn from you."

Weak body?

Gu Qing looked at Xu Xian, who was silently bowing his head with a hint of shame on his face.

"You really should take good care of yourself."

Gu Qing smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll teach him some breathing techniques later to help him get back in shape."

Xu Xian and Pei Yaoqin both looked delighted. Then Pei Yaoqin talked about the sale of clove spice, which had now become an indispensable item for the princes and ministers of Lin'an City, as well as for the women in brothels and theaters.

Whether going to court or to work, it's always a good idea to first put a chicken tongue incense sold by the Pei family in your mouth.

"When a business grows big, it becomes easy to attract the covetous eyes of others."

Gu Qing said, "If you notice anything wrong, tell me immediately."

Pei Yaoqin knew that Gu Qing was a capable person, so she nodded and said, "Recently, there have indeed been many people who are thinking about formulas and want to cooperate with us. There are also some people who are thinking about formulas, including monks and Taoists."

As the business grows, this is inevitable. If both Buddhism and Taoism get involved, the recipe for chicken tongue fragrance will also be reversed. To protect this unique business, the only option is to develop more chicken tongue fragrance and create new flavors.

"This is the latest dividend."

Pei Yaoqin gave the money to Gu Qing.

Gu Qing initially didn't want money; he just wanted to help Xu Xian and Pei Yaoqin get married. Now that their marriage is finalized, Pei Yaoqin feels that the two families need to cooperate for a long time, and one-sided contributions are not enough. She insists on giving Gu Qing the lion's share of the money no matter what.

Gu Qing accepted the money without hesitation.

As they were talking, Magistrate Yang from Qiantang County arrived. Seeing the seriously injured Li Gongfu, he offered words of comfort and told Li Gongfu to rest assured.

"These people from the Liang Prince's Mansion are used to being lawless. They attacked you in March when things were at their most dangerous, which shocked the court and the public."

Magistrate Yang said, "The imperial court is prepared to conduct a thorough investigation and make sure these people are arrested and severely punished."

Li Gongfu nodded repeatedly, saying that such thieves should not be shown any mercy.

"If these people have already been killed, what will Magistrate Yang do?"

Xiaoqing said with a smile.

Magistrate Yang turned his head and looked at Xiaoqing, who was charming and cute, much prettier than his third concubine. He stroked his beard and said, "I will naturally reward such a person handsomely!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Qing couldn't help but laugh. The deaths of Liang Lian and the others had already earned Gu Qing a wave of good karma, and now the living world wanted to reward him... Liang Lian's death was more significant than any contribution he could make in his entire life.

"Lord Yang!" An urgent voice called from outside. Magistrate Yang straightened his clothes and went to the door. He heard the person outside say urgently, "They're all dead."

"Everything is dead?"

The outsider's words were incoherent and cryptic, which enraged Magistrate Yang.

"All the remnants of the Liang Prince's Mansion are dead."

The man outside said, "It was inside Changming Temple. The monks there said that they had flaunted their wealth, and bandits rushed in, killed them all, and took all the money they had stolen."

Gu Qing's rampage inside Changming Temple also resulted in the deaths of several monks who blocked his path. Some monks at Changming Temple had seen Gu Qing's appearance, while others had not, but Gu Qing was not afraid of his identity being exposed and causing trouble.

After all, Fahai did it too.

"What bandits? Where would bandits come from in this peaceful world?"

When Magistrate Yang heard this from outside, he cursed and swore. Originally, the matter could still be smoothed over after Li Gongfu was injured, but now that bandits had suddenly appeared and caused such a big murder, Magistrate Yang felt that his official position was in danger.

Gu Qing and Xiao Qing exchanged a smile; the generous reward they had just asked for was now gone.

After leaving Li Gongfu's house, Gu Qing, Xiao Qing, and Bai Suzhen walked down the street and unknowingly came to an orphanage. Gu Qing greeted the people at the orphanage and donated all the dividends she had. While being thanked, she also earned some good karma.

"You don't even keep any for yourself?"

Xiaoqing saw Gu Qing come out with empty sleeves and asked.

"Just consider it a prayer for myself."

Gu Qing spoke calmly and came between Xiao Qing and Bai Suzhen, saying, "There is still some money in the pharmacy. I plan to buy some cloth and make you a few sets of clothes."

Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing smiled upon hearing this.

"Xiao Qing."

At this moment, Gu Qing grabbed Xiao Qing's hand and said, "I want you to know that with me by your side, I will satisfy whatever you want, so we don't need to steal from everywhere anymore."

Gu Qing's words to Xiao Qing were also a warning to Bai Suzhen.

After all, many misfortunes begin when Bai Suzhen instructs Xiaoqing to steal things.

"I haven't committed a crime in a long time."

Xiaoqing's words were displeased.

Gu Qing smiled and casually asked, "Where are all those gold and silver treasures in Changming Temple?"

"how could I know."

Xiaoqing snorted and said, "That's a Buddhist temple. We didn't even need to use any magic to get in. You expect the Five Ghosts to move it?"

When Gu Qing heard that money had been stolen from Changming Temple, his first thought was that Xiao Qing had taken it, but Xiao Qing didn't... Gu Qing then realized why Changming Temple had called them bandits, and that they were settling accounts.

"These monks are still the ones who can make money."

Gu Qingmo sighed.

At this very moment, in the suburbs of Hangzhou.

A Taoist priest dressed in a yellow Bagua robe was happily fiddling with cloves in the wild.

"This stuff is popular with high-ranking officials and nobles, so business is still booming."

The Taoist priest put the clove incense in his mouth, studied it intently, and after a moment said, "This clove incense is indeed of a certain quality. However, we are both Maoshan Taoists. Gu Qing is only receiving his ordination for the first time, while I have already received my ordination three times."

The Taoist priest spat out the aroma of chicken tongue, feeling that the advantage was in his hands!
