Chapter 60: The Blade Is the Same
The next morning, Zuixianlou was not open yet.
Everyone sat around the dining table, eating breakfast.
"No, Chen Chong, why are you like a ghost lately?"
At this time, Ah Ji took a bite of the steamed bun, looked at Chen Chong who was standing opposite him and said, "He disappeared as soon as he finished cooking last night, and showed up again quietly early this morning..."
At this point, Ah Ji showed a playful look on his face: "You old man, have you found a lover recently? Are you going out to have fun in the middle of the night?"
"Look how tired you are. The dark circles under your eyes have deepened!"
"Eat yours now!"
After hearing what Ah Ji said, Chen Chong said impatiently: "Such a good steamed bun can't stop your big mouth!"
"Look, you're shy, aren't you?"
Looking at Chen Chong's expression, Ah Ji laughed and said, "Emotions are human nature. Look, doesn't the old miser go to the brothel whenever he wants..."
"Hey, you little bastard, how come you always involve me in everything?"
As soon as Aji said this, Wang Ye put down the steamed bun in his hand and said, "I think you deserve a beating recently, don't you?"
"I am just trying to kindly advise Chen Chong to take care of her body..."
In response to Wang Ye's words, Ah Ji chuckled and said, "If I continue to spend money without restraint, I will become as weak as you sooner or later..."
"roll roll roll!"
After hearing what Aji said, Wang Ye's eyes widened: "I think you are just bored!"
"Since you are so free, go get a bowl of porridge and two steamed buns and send them to Li Huaikong..."
"He is weak, let him lie down for a while."
"You also know that he is weak?"
After hearing Wang Ye's words, Aji pretended to be surprised and said, "Listen to what you sent. It's just a bowl of porridge and two steamed buns. There's not even a drop of oil or water..."
"If you really want to recover, why don't you stew a chicken?"
As he spoke, Aji looked at Wang Ye with contempt.
"I bother!"
Hearing this, Wang Ye said, "You don't know how expensive firewood and rice are. You're lucky . Do you know how much a chicken costs?"
"That's all pure silver!"
"Hey, you old money-grubber!"
After hearing what Wang Ye said, Aji said, "Why didn't you say that I gave you the gold leaf last night?"
"Gold leaves are life-saving money!"
Wang Ye said as if it was a matter of course: "We risked our lives to save him last night, isn't it only right that we take some money from him?"
"Besides, I confiscated the money he spent on the hotel and gave him steamed buns and porridge, which is already very good."
"Hey, you old money-grubber, do you still have any compassion left in you?"
Looking at Wang Ye who looked righteous, Aji retorted: "A chicken only costs a few dollars, can't you give him one?"
"Oh, a chicken can only cost a few silver coins, you are so arrogant!"
Hearing this, Wang Ye immediately got angry. He looked at Aji in front of him and said, "You want to stew a chicken for him so much? No problem. How about I deduct the money from your salary?"
"cough!"
When Aji heard Wang Ye mentioned wages, his face changed.
He coughed dryly and then said, "Boss, I think you are right. This business requires careful calculation and must not be extravagant..."
"Steamed buns and porridge are also very good. I eat steamed buns and porridge every day, and I feel strong."
"There's really no need to stew a chicken..."
When it comes to wages, Aji changes his attitude instantly.
"Bah, bending over backwards for a few pieces of silver!"
Seeing Ah Ji's change of attitude, Bai Luhan on the side was full of disdain: "I have wasted all my Buddhist magical powers, but I didn't expect him to be such a coward!"
"Look, there are still some brave knights out there!"
After hearing Bai Luhan's words, Wang Ye smiled slightly: "Since the little girl is so righteous, the money for buying the chicken will be deducted from her wages!"
"cough!"
As soon as these words came out, Bai Luhan's pretty face changed, and she said, "Actually, this is not a question of being tough or not..."
"The main thing is that I agree with what the shopkeeper said. Saving a life is saving a life, and staying in a hotel is staying in a hotel. The two cannot be confused!"
After saying this, Bai Luhan picked up the porridge and started drinking it.
"Okay, stop talking bullshit."
Looking at Aji and Bai Luhan, Wang Ye finished the porridge in the bowl.
He stood up and said, "I have something to do and need to go out for a while. After you finish eating, clean up and get ready to open the door!"
"Where are you going?"
Seeing Wang Ye stand up, Bai Luhan asked subconsciously.
"Where can we go?"
Aji on the side said lazily: "Take the body to the government office to exchange it for money!"
"Otherwise he would have brought back those two bodies last night?"
After hearing these words, Bai Luhan was speechless.
The body of the evil monk last night was fine. Although he was killed by Aji's palm power, at least his body was intact.
However, the man from Rakshasa Sect had his neck cut off by an unknown master, and his head and body were separated.
Under such circumstances, Wang Ye could still drag the corpse to the government office to exchange it for money after eating breakfast.
Bai Luhan was really surprised to see someone so obsessed with money.
While Bai Luhan was speechless, Wang Ye had already walked out of the hall.
…
Pushing the corpse on a cart to the government office, Wang Ye ran into Captain Zhao who was preparing for an inspection.
"Hey, Shopkeeper Wang"
Seeing Wang Ye pushing the cart, Captain Zhao smiled and said, "From what you said, are you bringing corpses here to exchange for money again?"
As he spoke, Captain Zhao used his scabbard to lift the sackcloth that Wang Ye had used to cover the cart.
Suddenly, two corpses appeared in front of Captain Zhao .
"That's not true..."
Hearing this, Wang Ye gave a flattering smile: "Last night, just before closing time we encountered two scoundrels who were trying to do something illegal, and Aji took action and dealt with them..."
"After all, it's money delivered to your door, why not refuse it?"
"Too……"
After hearing what Wang Ye said, Captain Zhao nodded and said, "It's only because I met such a good guy like Aji, otherwise how could I have such good fortune!"
"Go ahead, the official is inside. Take him to find out the reason and verify your identity, then you can collect the money!"
"Thank you, Captain Zhao. Remember to come to my place for noodles when you have time!"
Hearing this, Wang Ye smiled and prepared to push the cart into the government office.
At this moment, Captain Zhao turned his gaze and fell on the man with his head and body separated on the cart.
"etc!"
At this time, Captain Zhao spoke.
At the same time, he stepped forward and lifted the sackcloth covering the corpse. After confirming it again and again, he was shocked.
Because in his opinion, the knife wound on the corpse's neck was exactly the same as Jin Mancang's!
