Chapter 549: Closing the City



Xiao Bao shook Song Yuehua's hand and asked, "Just now an old man asked me what prize I wanted."

"So what do you want?"

Xiao Bao said, "I asked him how much gold he could give me at most."

Song Yuehua: "..." is quite vulgar.

"Grandpa said I can take as much as I can."

Xiao Bao said with a smile, "Sister, just wait and see how I make a lot of money for you."

In such a public place, Song Yuehua still said tactfully, "Don't be too greedy."

After a while, a whole box of gold ingots was brought up. The moment it was opened, it was shining with golden light.

Song Yuehua suddenly felt that this wish was a good one.

A middle-aged man with a wealthy appearance came over and told Xiaobao the rules with a smile: he could take as much as he could with his hands.

"Does it count if I put it in my arms?" Xiao Bao asked.

The middle-aged man glanced upstairs, then smiled and said, "What's in your arms can be counted, but not in your pockets."

"All right."

Xiaobao stuffed the chess pieces into his arms one by one until he could no longer fit them. Then he walked around the middle of the chessboard and asked, "Is this okay?"

"Can."

After saying that, the middle-aged man helped Xiaobao to wrap up the gold ingots. The gold ingots here were worth 20 taels each, and Xiaobao wrapped a total of 15 ingots, which is 300 gold.

After they returned home, the restaurant staff delivered the gold to them.

The two Taoist priests reminded Song Yuehua, "Now that Xiaoyun has the gold, I'm afraid it will attract some flies."

Song Yuehua originally wanted to wait until Xiaoyu's embroidery workshop business was finished before going back, but she didn't expect this to happen.

"In that case, why don't you go back earlier..."

Xiao Bao quickly said, "Big sister, I'm going to go back to the Taoist temple first. The little monk is still waiting to see Ah Miao."

Song Yuehua did not agree immediately, but sent Xiaobao away and then talked to the two Taoist nuns.

"My younger sister has mentioned several times that she wants to go to Wutong Prefecture with Taoist Master Miaoshou..."

At this point, Song Yuehua cupped her hands and said, "But I'm really worried, so can I ask how the two Taoist masters are doing?"

After hearing this, Taoist Master Hua smiled and said, "If I were a man, I would be the champion of martial arts."

Taoist Master Bai didn't say anything, so Taoist Master Hua continued, "Although Taoist Master Bai's martial arts skills are not as good as mine, they are better than most people, and she is better at medicine."

Duan Yidao is only a third place winner, which means that Taoist Hua’s ability is even better than Duan Yidao’s.

Because he had mistakenly trusted a few of Gongsun Yan's close associates.

From then on, Song Yuehua became skeptical of all facts that had not been verified.

Pei Feng was called over and asked about the abilities of the two Taoist priests.

Pei Feng nodded, "You two Taoist priests are much better than me. If we compare them with Master Duan, we might be able to compete with each other."

Regardless of whether he is better than Duan Yidao, it is amazing that he can compete with him.

Now that she had heard Pei Feng's words, Song Yuehua finally believed it halfway.

The two Taoist priests agreed that they would personally send Xiaobao back in a few days.

Although Song Yuehua was relieved, she still allowed Wei Da to go with her.

Xiaobao's trip would probably only take two or three days, so Song Yuehua discussed with Xiaoqing whether they could bring Xiaoyu, Xiaomian and Shitou back earlier.

There are still ten days until the Chinese New Year. Going back so early...

Xiaoqing thought for a moment and said, "Okay, just come earlier next year."

Shitou and Xiaomian, brother and sister, were very grateful.

After waiting in the embroidery workshop for three days, Xiaobao didn't come back, and Wei Da didn't come back either.

Not knowing if something had delayed them, Song Yuehua was a little impatient and asked Pei Feng to go to the Taoist temple to pick them up. However, not long after they set out, they turned back.

"Girl, we can't get out of the city gate." Pei Feng said.

Song Yuehua didn't quite understand what he meant, "What do you mean? Why can't I get out?"

"I heard that bandits have entered and now people are not allowed to enter or leave." Pei Feng couldn't explain it clearly for a moment.

Why don't you catch the bandits instead of sealing off the city?

Could it be that the bandits sneaked in?

Song Yuehua remembered that Lianzhou had been occupied, and quickly asked Xiaoqing to buy more food to store, then closed the shop and found a place to hide.

After giving the instructions, Song Yuehua prepared to go out and find out about the situation.

"Sister, where are you going?"

Xiaoyu asked, "Xiaobao has Wei Da, Master Miaoshou and two other Taoist priests. She will be fine. Sister, don't take any risks."

Song Yuehua shook her head and said, "I won't go to Xiaobao's place. Pei Feng will go for me."

"Girl, the city gate is closed..." Pei Feng reminded again.

Song Yuehua told him the river channel that she had learned from Hou Xiaoer.

"After dark, dive out of the water and go to the Taoist temple. Help me protect Xiaobao. Don't say anything else. Let her travel with Taoist Master Miaoshou."

"Xiaobao is so smart, he will definitely be suspicious." Pei Feng said.

At this Hailin banquet, Xiaobao won 15 gold ingots. Song Yuehua took out one of them, cut it into pieces, wrapped it up, and gave it to Pei Feng.

"Tell her that her second sister and I ran into a familiar escort company and returned home early. If she wants to go to Wutong Prefecture, she can go there."

Thinking of this, Song Yuehua asked Xiaoyu to write a letter to Xiaobao quickly.

After giving instructions to a few people, he hurried towards Ah Xing's fish ball stall.

Ah Xing did not set up a stall today, and Song Yuehua felt more and more uneasy. Fortunately, she knew the location of the Qiao family.

People are hurrying along the streets now, and it does not look good.

Just when Song Yuehua was distracted, she accidentally bumped into someone. It turned out to be Hou Xiaoer.

"Sister Song?"

Hou Xiaoer's expression tensed up, and he pulled her to the alley next to him, "Sister, why are you still here? Alas, you can't get out now."
