Xu Qingzhou was also stunned by so many gold bricks. He blinked blankly and asked, "Boss, how are we going to take all of these with us?"
Xu Jinhuan smiled mysteriously and said in a coaxing tone, "Good boy, I'll show you a magic trick. Close your eyes first."
Upon hearing this, Xu Qingzhou obediently closed his eyes. When he heard Xu Jinhuan say that he could open his eyes, he obediently opened them, and then his already round eyes opened even wider.
Simply because those gleaming gold bricks have vanished!
Xu Jinhuan looked at the stacks of gold bricks in the corner of the space, and a beautiful smile appeared on her lips.
Thanks to Boss Niu for contributing to her throne!
"Let's go, we'll take your mother away," Xu Jinhuan said, patting Xu Qingzhou's head.
Xu Qingzhou nodded obediently.
With no one stopping them, the two quickly left the village.
Ma Wencai and his companion, who had been waiting at the village entrance for a long time, rushed to greet Xu Jinhuan as soon as he came out. Their eyes paused for a moment when they saw the unfamiliar child and the corpse.
"Boss, has everything been resolved inside?" Ma Wencai asked curiously.
Xu Jinhuan nodded and said to Ma Wencai and Xie Guangbai, "You two take your tools and go to the woods to find a good spot to dig a hole."
Ma Wencai and Xie Guangbai nodded upon hearing this, took their tools from the carriage, and began to look for a place to dig a pit.
Xu Jinhuan bent down and patted Xu Qingzhou's head. "Say goodbye to your mother properly."
With tears in his eyes, Xu Qingzhou knelt down again and respectfully kowtowed to Xu Jinhuan, saying, "Thank you, Boss!"
After doing all this, he turned his head and whispered something to his mother.
Xu Jinhuan deliberately walked a little further away so as not to disturb the last moments the mother and son spent together.
Xu Qingzhou looks only seven or eight years old, but he is too mature for his age and has a lot of manners. I wonder what kind of family he was raised in.
Xu Jinhuan quietly watched the trees swaying in the wind, her thoughts drifting.
The quiet atmosphere was broken by Ma Wencai's loud and boisterous voice.
"Boss, the pit's dug!"
Ma Wencai called out to Xu Jinhuan as he jogged along.
Upon hearing this, Xu Jinhuan walked to Xu Qingzhou's side and said gently, "Qingzhou, now we're going to bury your mother."
Xu Qingzhou wiped away his tears, obediently stood up, and struggled to lift his mother's head, as if he wanted to lift it with everyone else.
Ma Wencai patted his head with some pity, "You have such small arms and legs and little strength, you can just watch from the side. Your uncle is standing here, why would I need you to lift me?"
After saying that, Ma Wencai called Xie Guangbai, and the two of them carried Xu Qingzhou's mother into the pit that had been dug.
"Child, we're going to bury him."
After saying that, a handful of yellow earth was placed on the body of the deceased woman.
Gradually, more and more soil accumulated, and the woman's figure could no longer be seen...
Xu Qingzhou knelt before his mother's grave and kowtowed three times forcefully. "Mother, your son will bring that man to your grave to atone for his sins!"
"Let's go," Xu Jinhuan said softly.
Xu Qingzhou wiped away her tears, obediently got up, and followed behind Xu Jinhuan.
On the carriage that continued its journey, Xu Jinhuan told Ma Wencai about Xu Qingzhou, and Ma Wencai cursed him repeatedly.
"What kind of father is that, Xiao Zhou? If you run into him again, tell your uncle, and your uncle will beat him up for you!"
Xie Guangbai coughed lightly and said, "Qingzhou, don't blindly follow your Uncle Wencai's example. Revenge isn't something you can just do by fighting around. You have to learn to kill someone and destroy their spirit with your first move."
Xu Qingzhou was clearly more interested in Xie Guangbai's words than Ma Wencai. He cupped his hands in greeting to Xie Guangbai and said earnestly, "Please enlighten me, sir."
Xie Guangbai immediately launched into a long-winded discussion, sharing his theories on poison with Xu Qingzhou.
Xu Jinhuan looked at the two chatting enthusiastically and shook her head helplessly. She didn't know that Xie Guangbai had become such a chatterbox.
The four of them traveled quickly and soon reunited with Li Yichang and the others.
"Boss, so you really are the boss of so many people!" Xu Qingzhou looked at the carriages in surprise.
Xu Jinhuan smiled and patted his head, "This is only a few people. My goal is much more than this."
Xu Qingzhou said with a serious expression, "I believe that our boss can definitely do it!"
Xu Jinhuan briefly explained the situation in Yu County to Li Yichang and the others, and the main group set off again.
The places Xu Jinhuan passed through were all plagued, but thanks to the highly effective prescriptions concocted by Xie Guangbai, peace was restored wherever Xu Jinhuan went.
And so, the name of the God of Joy and Benevolence spread rapidly.
Not only in the cities Xu Jinhuan passed through, but also in other places, the word of mouth spread among the merchants who came and went, that people learned about this immortal.
"Boss, we're almost there. How are we going to spread the word about the immortals now?" Xie Datou scratched his head anxiously.
Along the way, he experienced things he had never imagined before. He thought the day he would reach his destination was far away, but who could have imagined that time would pass so quickly and that he would arrive in the blink of an eye?
Upon hearing this, Xu Jinhuan smiled and said, "Actually, it's not that difficult. I have already collected a portion of the faith from the vast land. All I need to do is borrow a favorable wind, and I will be able to soar to the heavens."
Although no one knew what Xu Jinhuan's "east wind" was, they were all relieved to see her full of confidence.
"Boss, we'll arrive in Lancheng tomorrow. Have you decided where to register your household registration?"
Xie Datou, as the head of the guards escorting the exiled people, was very familiar with these procedures.
After a moment's thought, Xu Jinhuan pointed to the small dots on the map and said, "This place is more suitable for us. It's far from the state capital, and there aren't many residents around the border, making it a good place to cause trouble."
Li Yichang looked at the map and nodded. "This place is indeed suitable. We might even be able to use it to infiltrate the military camp and recruit some reinforcements."
After discussing the important matters, everyone's previous serious expressions vanished, and they started laughing and joking again.
"Luckily, the boss told us to pack our cotton-padded coats, otherwise I would have frozen to death halfway there. This north is truly a bitterly cold place. It's only early winter, and it already feels like people are freezing to death."
After Ma Wencai finished speaking, he tightened his collar.
After taking a sip of hot tea, Xie Datou said, "It's only early winter, we still have a long way to go. Once we settle down, we'll have to see if there are any leather sellers around."
Anyway, get the eldest a fur coat first; those are really windproof and warm.
Xu Jinhuan felt a warmth in his heart upon hearing this, but he smiled and scolded, "Do you still need to prepare? Your boss has already collected them all, all kinds of leather, enough to make sure each of you has a set!"
"The boss is still the most reliable!"
Everyone chatted and laughed, and soon they felt hungry.
"Let's go downstairs and have a good meal," Xu Jinhuan said to the group.
The group came down the stairs of the inn, found a large table in a corner and sat down. As soon as they sat down, they heard people talking about things in the capital.
"What? The Crown Prince has rebelled?"
