Chapter 25
The night was dark and dark clouds were pressing overhead. A sudden incident broke the tranquility of Cheng Mansion. Li Qingge, the female general of the Cheng family, was alone in the bedroom. She had a tall and straight posture, and there was a heroic spirit between her brows, which was completely different from ordinary women. At this moment, she was staring at the rolling dark clouds outside the window, thinking to herself.
Suddenly, a man inadvertently looked up at the sky and shouted: "Ouch!" He was so frightened that he took three steps back. The short knife in his hand fell to the tiles with a clang, and then fell smoothly. It slid down the slope and made a harsh sound.
"Second brother! What's wrong with you? Are you so surprised?" The bald man frowned and asked angrily in a low voice. His eyes were as sharp as knives, and he exuded an aura that could not be underestimated. He was obviously the leader of this group of assassins.
"I seemed to see something flashing past in the sky, with eyes as big as wheels... Could it be a dragon?" After saying this, the man was shaking all over, and the sweat on his forehead was like rain. As if, his face was as pale as a piece of paper. His eyes were full of fear and uneasiness, as if he had really seen something terrifying.
The atmosphere at the scene instantly became weird, making people feel terrified. The other two assassins couldn't help but take a breath of cold air and looked up at the dark cloud-covered sky. Sure enough, they saw a vague shadow rolling in the clouds, shaped like a dragon, and its majestic momentum made people feel awe.
"What the hell is that?" One of the assassins muttered to himself, his eyes showing some doubts and uneasiness.
"It seems to be hovering over the Cheng Mansion, heading straight for us." Another assassin said, his voice was trembling, and he was obviously frightened by this sudden change.
“Is this boy really destined by destiny, and is there a god protecting him?” The bald man frowned, and an ominous premonition surged in his heart. He knew that if the mission could not be completed today, endless pursuit and death would be waiting for them.
“Let’s go!” The bald man’s face changed drastically, his figure looked like a ghost, and he disappeared into the night in an instant. In just a few ups and downs, he had climbed over several rooftops, and his speed was staggering.
The remaining two assassins looked at each other in fear and did not dare to stay any longer. They quickly used Qinggong to catch up, their figures looming in the night like two black lightnings. Soon, the figures of the three assassins disappeared into the vast night.
Li Qingge, who was hiding in the dark, heard all this and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She walked out of the shadows, put her hands behind her back, raised a smile on her lips, and said disdainfully: "Huh, is this the so-called top master? That's all." There was a bit of disdain and ridicule in her eyes, obviously towards these assassins. Very disappointed with the performance.
"That day, Gong Lao Niu, was really scary. Even I felt scared when I saw it." As she said that, she looked up at the changing winds and clouds in the sky, and pointed at the clouds in the clouds. shadow. She saw the Tiangong Old Niu turn into a golden light and fall into her palm. Then it shrank into a black shadow more than an inch long and was put into the storage grid of the system. There was a bit of pride and joy in her eyes, and she was obviously very satisfied with this treasure.
Qiongyao's sweet rain has been used up and cannot be taken back. At this moment, a heavy rain is brewing in the sky. After a while, heavy raindrops poured down, as if the whole world was drowned in rain. Li Qingge stood in the rain, letting the rain wet her clothes and hair. There was some firmness and determination in her eyes. She knew that although the crisis had been temporarily resolved, the real battle had just begun.
"General!" Several guards rushed over and knelt in front of Li Qingge. They had also been startled by thunder and dark clouds just now. When they looked up, they vaguely saw three black shadows flashing past. They were worried about the general's safety, so they hurried over to check. Seeing that Li Qingge was safe and sound, they felt a little relieved.
"I'm fine. Why would an assassin choose to assassinate in this weather?" Li Qingge said calmly. Although her voice was calm, her eyes revealed some doubts and uneasiness. She knew that there must be a bigger conspiracy and enemy hidden behind this crisis.
"Then my subordinates will resign." The guards responded. Although they said so, they still felt uneasy in their hearts. They know that although Li Qingge has a reputation as a "waste" outside, he is actually a master who hides his secrets. Today's events made them understand this even more.
"Does anyone really want to assassinate the general?" A young guard asked worriedly. There was some confusion and confusion in his eyes, and he was obviously very shocked by what happened today.
As soon as these words came out, everyone around them laughed. They knew that the young guard was too young to understand the cruelty and complexity of this world.
"What do you know, kid? General Cheng is His Majesty's closest confidant. Who dares to touch him easily? Besides, the general has a reputation as a 'trash' outside. What's the benefit of assassinating him?" An experienced guard explained with a smile. There was a bit of disdain and ridicule in his eyes, and he was obviously not interested in Li Qingge's reputation.
"Yes, assassins all want to be famous. Assassinating a loser doesn't mean that you are lowering yourself. You will also be laughed at." Another guard also agreed. There was also a bit of disdain and contempt in his eyes.
"Don't worry, most of the top figures in the world have been assassinated, and it's not General Li Qingge's turn yet." A guard said jokingly. His words caused a burst of laughter, but Li Qingge just smiled lightly and said nothing. She knew that although these guards looked down upon her on the surface, they were actually loyal warriors. They just don't understand her true strength and identity.
As the rain poured down, Li Qingge turned around and went back to his room to rest. At this moment, the system's voice rang in her mind: "Ding! System warning: The host drove away three top warriors with only resourcefulness without using any weapons. Even though he was despised, he still kept a low profile and successfully triggered Wuwei Lie. Level reward mechanism."
As soon as Li Qingge heard this, his face immediately darkened. She secretly cursed in her heart: "Why didn't you say anything when I was on the line of life and death just now? Are you taking credit now that everything has been resolved?" Although she said this, she was actually happy in her heart. If you don't get the prize, you won't get it. What's more, the thing given by the system is definitely not an ordinary thing, maybe it is some kind of heavenly treasure.
She quickly changed her words: "Wait a minute, give it to me first." There was a bit of anticipation and joy in her eyes. She knew that although this system was sometimes unreliable, the rewards it gave were always eye-catching.
The system sounded the prompt again: "Ding! The host has obtained the Nether Eye, which is a treasure that can communicate with the underworld. It can copy the martial arts skills seen and even the martial arts secrets in movies and TV shows before time travel. You can learn it at a glance." Li Qingge was overjoyed and excited when he heard this. Almost jumped. She knows that this Netherworld Eye is definitely a treasure that defies heaven! As long as she has it, she can learn any martial arts and martial arts secrets! This will undoubtedly take her strength to the next level! She couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha! This is really a big profit! System, system, although you are sometimes unreliable, you really gave me a big surprise this time!" Her laughter Echoing in the rainy night, it was full of pride and joy.
The Power of Netherworld Eyes and Unexpected Storms
As soon as the system finished speaking, Qingge's eyes lit up instantly, like the brightest stars in the night sky, shining with anticipation and excitement. "Netherworld Eyes? This ability can actually copy any martial arts you see, even the ones you saw on TV before traveling! This means that I can master top kung fu instantly without having to practice hard? But it's a pity that I can only do it every day Used it three times, only for a short time each time, but it is enough. When masters compete, the victory or defeat is often in that moment." She was secretly happy, as if she had already seen herself becoming a master of martial arts.
“Like Ye Gucheng’s Flying Immortal from Heaven, Li Xunhuan’s Little Li Flying Sword, the Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon, the Nine Swords of Dugu, and the Sunflower Book, I can learn them with just a thought.” Qing Ge He said excitedly, his eyes shining with desire for unknown martial arts. However, when she mentioned the Sunflower Book, her expression changed slightly, as if she had thought of something terrible. "But when it comes to the Sunflower Book, I get butterflies in my stomach when I think about it. I have to get it out of my mind quickly, lest the Nether Eyes accidentally copy it, which would be terrible. I don't want to be like Lin Pingzhi. I don't even risk my life for martial arts. What I pursue is freedom, not the pinnacle of martial arts." She shook her head and dismissed those disturbing thoughts from her mind.
"Hey, this Nether Eye is much stronger than the Sharingan. The Sharingan has limitations, but this one doesn't. It's awesome to be able to copy top martial arts when you see them!" Qingge said excitedly! As he said this, he felt as if he had been given a life-saving charm by the system. She took a deep breath, her face beaming with joy. Although she had thousands of acres of farmland and more food than she could eat, she didn't care much about it. She just wanted to lie down comfortably and enjoy life. Now that he has the Netherworld Eye, his martial arts skills are at his fingertips, and his safety is guaranteed. He might even become the number one master in the Tang Dynasty. But she is not interested in this name, as long as she can save her life.
"With these two things, no one can compare with me when I lie down on my back." Qing Ge felt happy. She especially liked to lie on the bed to sleep on rainy days, and she would soon fall asleep. Although she has not yet tried the power of the Nether Eye, she is full of confidence and knows that it will be of great use.
Early the next morning, Qingge went to her thousand acres of farmland to check the rice. She was wearing a light green dress, the hem of which swayed gently in the wind, like a fairy walking slightly on the waves. Her eyes shone with wisdom and expectation, as if she had already seen the harvest. She clicked lightly, and the fertile fields appeared. The eyes were full of green rice, which looked particularly vibrant under the sunlight. "It's growing really well. It's ready to be harvested tomorrow." She said with satisfaction, with a smile of pleasure on her lips. She felt very relieved when she thought that the people in Jiangnan would soon receive the first batch of food, which would solve their food ration problem for several months. Although she likes to lie down, she does not care about the sufferings of the people. The Tang Dynasty had just been established, wars continued, and the people were suffering. She hoped to do her part to let them live a peaceful life.
After checking the rice, Qingge rode into the palace to attend the morning court. She was riding on horseback, her posture upright, like a female general about to go into battle. Her eyes shone with determination and wisdom, as if she was ready to face any challenge. Hundreds of officials gathered in front of the palace. Everyone was talking with surprise on their faces. Qing Ge listened carefully and heard what they said: "I heard that Qian Dashan burst into tears after winning the bronze medal, and finally fainted." "Are you too happy?" "No, he looked desperate. And After donating food, all the wealthy businessmen in Chang'an broke up with him. It's really strange." "Yes, Qian Shiping. He is always kind and generous, and this donation of food should have been more popular. Moreover, he is also honest in business, so how could this happen? "It's really strange! There are rumors that he has a bad reputation for stealing money, but this time he donated food so generously." , It’s really confusing.” The officials frowned and couldn’t figure out the reason. Donating food is a good thing, but why would a generous person cry so sadly and regret it? When the people saw this scene, they all despised him. What kind of charity is it to donate food and then regret it? The people's hearts were so cold that everyone vowed never to deposit money in a bank again. This incident quickly spread in Chang'an and became a topic of conversation among everyone after dinner. As a result, Qian Dashanren's reputation plummeted.
Qing Ge was slightly startled when she heard the news. Her brows furrowed slightly, as if she was puzzled and sorry for what happened to Qian Dashan. She didn't expect that donating food in Qian's name would cause such trouble to Qian Toyota. This was originally just a reward given to her by the system, but unexpectedly it affected others. A trace of guilt and self-blame surged in her heart, as if she had personally pushed Qian Dashanren into trouble. She secretly vowed to find a way to make up for this mistake and restore Qian Dashanren's reputation. At the same time, she also strengthened her belief that she would use her own power to benefit the people and make Datang's country more stable and prosperous.
【Hey, that old man is riding a tiger and it's hard to get off. He wants to tell the truth but is afraid of falling into a deeper pit. His eyes were full of helplessness and struggle, as if he was tightly bound by invisible ropes, and every step he took was extremely heavy. 】
[It seems that we can only suffer the consequences silently. I couldn't help but feel a surge of sadness in my heart. This innocent involvement made people feel particularly heavy. 】
【I really didn’t expect that my actions would cause him so much trouble. If this causes him to go bankrupt, how can I live with it? 】I thought to myself, the guilt in my heart came like a tide, making me almost unable to breathe. Toyota is in this predicament because of me, and I have to shoulder this responsibility no matter what.
"My lords, please come in!" As soon as he finished speaking, a little eunuch hurriedly ran out, bending his waist and swinging his hands, as if he was a flexible landscape in the palace, leading the officials. Enter that magnificent palace.
The officials straightened their clothes and walked up the steps with serious expressions. Every step looked solemn and majestic. When they stepped into the hall, they saw Taizong Li Shimin sitting on the dragon chair, with a slight majesty on his face. But when his eyes turned to me, the majesty instantly turned into warmth, like the sunshine in spring, making people feel particularly comfortable. .
"The disaster relief food from Chang'an has been put in place, and all states and counties have also taken action. Rich businessmen have also donated food. The victims in Jiangnan can now rest assured." Taizong stretched his brows and smiled. He looked at me with eyes full of praise and warmth.
I smiled slightly, but felt a little bitter in my heart. If it weren't for me, how could this matter be settled so quickly? In just a few days, the major problem of disaster relief was successfully solved. In the past, disaster relief would often take ten days and a half. How could the people endure it? Now, although I have solved the problem, I have also inadvertently caused great trouble to Toyota.
"But the food is still not enough, Cheng Aiqing, do you have any good ideas?" Taizong's eyes fell on me again, with some expectation. The officials also looked over, with both curiosity and doubt in their eyes.
"I went to see Qian Dashan yesterday, and he was willing to donate some more food to help the victims." I smiled slightly, looking confident. However, there is some helplessness and worry hidden behind this smile.
When the officials heard this, they all looked at each other and murmured in their hearts. Toyota's regret was obvious, so how could he be willing to donate food again? Am I lying? But who dares to deceive the emperor? This is a serious crime of losing your head! Everyone was confused and didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in this gourd.
"Is it true that he can harvest a season of grain in three days like the legend says?" A minister whispered in a low voice.
"What kind of magic did this kid use?" Another minister couldn't help but ask.
Although Taizong was a little surprised, he still kept a smile on his face and nodded lightly. As for what spell I used, it doesn't matter. What matters is that the victims have food to eat and Jiangnan is stable.
"Thank you for your hard work." Taizong said gently.
“For the people, I don’t feel hard at all.” I replied with a smile, but these words came from the bottom of my heart. However, the guilt and worry in my heart became stronger and stronger. I must resolve the Toyota matter as soon as possible.
[Hey, Shimin, you still don’t know, I have a thousand acres of fertile land and plenty of rice. This small amount of food is nothing to me. 】I was secretly proud in my heart, but this pride was quickly shattered by reality.
[But to be able to gather so much grain in a few days, anyone with a little bit of agricultural knowledge knows that this is definitely not the original thing in Toyota's warehouse. 】I thought to myself, and the worry in my heart became more and more intense.
【I have to find a way to appease Toyota quickly, otherwise if he lets it slip, I won’t be able to keep my secret. I wanted to keep a low profile, but why did things develop to this point? ] I was thinking in my mind about how to appease the time bomb that is Toyota.
"You have worked hard these days. I ask you to go back and rest early." Taizong said gently.
Appease Toyota? As expected, these grains are not from Toyota. This kid must go to Toyota to appease him, otherwise the whole thing will be exposed. I thought to myself, but I had to admire Taizong's insight.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." I was stunned for a moment, and then I understood. What a coincidence, right? I was just thinking about how to appease Toyota, when His Majesty gave me this opportunity. I thanked him and resigned without thinking much.
Then I rode my horse and galloped all the way to Chang'an City. The scene on the street was completely different from usual. It was deserted and deserted, as if shrouded in a layer of haze. The place in front of the bank was deserted, which was in sharp contrast to the lively scene of people coming and going before.
I walked into the bank and saw Toyota sitting behind the counter, his face as pale as a piece of paper and his eyes empty. In the past two days, he had been thinking about what was going on, why did it suddenly become like this? Finally he finally thought of my name - Li Qingge.
"General Cheng! You have made me suffer so much! If I had known this would happen, I might as well have donated less food! Why did I end up like this!" When Toyota saw me, he seemed to have seen Like a life-saving straw, he held my hand tightly and almost cried.
I looked at Toyota's desperate eyes, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness in my heart. The wealthy businessmen in Chang'an all suspected that he had deliberately set up a scheme to make a small donation but become famous, so they cut off all ties with him. He tried his best to explain but no one believed him. Old friends of many years also lost contact with him. Fortunately, the common people still remembered his old love and did not withdraw all their deposits, but compared with those wealthy businessmen, this amount of money was just a drop in the bucket and could not solve his predicament at all.
"Toyota, I'm sorry, I really didn't expect to cause you such a big trouble." I said guiltily, "But please believe me, I will definitely find a way to solve this problem."
When Toyota heard my words, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes. He held my hand tightly, as if grasping the last straw.
"Li Qingge, you must help me! I'm in a desperate situation now!" he pleaded.
"Don't worry, I will try my best." I said firmly. Then, I turned around and walked out of the bank, already thinking about it.
I walked on the streets of Chang'an, thinking about how to appease Toyota. Suddenly, I heard a rush of footsteps behind me.
"General Cheng!" shouted a familiar voice.
I turned around and saw a young man in white walking over with a smile on his hands. He is none other than Li Xunhuan, the son of a famous wealthy businessman in Chang'an City. "Li Xunhuan? Why are you here?" I asked curiously.
"Haha, General Cheng, I came to see you specially." Li Xunhuan said with a smile, "I heard that you have put a lot of effort into disaster relief. Why? Like? Do you need my help?"
I couldn't help but feel warm in my heart when I looked at Li Xunhuan's smiling face. Although this Li Xunhuan usually seems carefree, he is still quite reliable at critical moments.
"Li Xunhuan, you came at the right time. I really need your help." I said seriously, "Do you know about Toyota? He is in trouble now."
< br>
"Toyota? I know. This matter has spread throughout Chang'an City." Li Xunhuan nodded and said, "But what does this matter have to do with you? Why do you care about him so much?"
“Hey, it’s a long story. Actually, this happened because of me. "I sighed and said, "I want to find a way to appease him now, otherwise if he leaks the truth, I won't be able to keep my secret."
"Haha, that's it. "Li Xunhuan couldn't help laughing after hearing my words, "General Cheng, you Don't worry. Just leave this matter to me. I guarantee that Toyota will be very satisfied."
"That's great!" I couldn't help but feel overjoyed after hearing what Li Xunhuan said. , "Li Xunhuan, if you can help me solve this problem, I will Thank you very much!"
"Haha, General Cheng, you're welcome. We are all friends and we should help each other." Li Xunhuan said with a smile, "Then I will go talk to Toyota. Just wait for my good news!”
After saying that, Li Xunhuan turned and left. I looked at his back and felt a warm current in my heart. This Li Xunhuan is such a reliable friend!
In the next few days, I have been waiting for news about Li Xunhuan. Whenever I think of Toyota's desperate eyes and pleading words, my heart is filled with guilt and worry. I hope Li Xunhuan can find a solution as soon as possible to get Toyota out of its predicament.
Finally, on a sunny morning, Li Xunhuan came to my mansion with a spring breeze smile on his face.
"General Cheng! Good news! Good news!" He shouted as soon as he entered the door, "I have found a solution to Toyota's problem!"
"Really? ? Great!" When I heard this, I was overjoyed, "Li Xunhuan, you are so awesome! Tell me, how did you do it?"
"Haha, it's actually not that difficult." Li Xunhuan said proudly, "I just went to talk to those wealthy businessmen who had severed ties with Toyota. I told them the truth of the matter clearly and promised to help them solve it together. Food problem. Once they heard this, they were willing to make peace with Toyota. "
"Really? That's great!" I was even more excited when I heard this, "Li Xunhuan, you have really helped me! I will tell Toyota this now! News!”
After saying that, I couldn’t wait to ride my horse to the bank. When I walked into the bank, I saw Toyota sitting behind the counter with a sad face. As soon as he saw me coming in, he stood up immediately.
"General Cheng! You are finally here! Did Li Xunhuan tell you any good news?" he asked impatiently.
"Haha, Toyota, don't worry! Li Xunhuan has helped you solve the problem!" I said with a smile, "Those wealthy businessmen are willing to make peace with you! Your dilemma has been solved!"
"Really? That's great!" When Toyota heard this, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face, "General Cheng, you are really my savior! I will definitely repay you well in the future!"
"Haha, Toyota, you're welcome. Let's We are all friends, so we should help each other." I said with a smile, "Then come with me to meet those wealthy businessmen! Let's celebrate the good news together!"
After that, I took Toyota and walked out of the bank together. When we walked to the street, we saw the wealthy businessmen already waiting there. As soon as they saw Toyota and me approaching, they immediately came over to greet us.
"Brother Toyota! We are finally waiting for you!" A wealthy businessman said with a smile, "We only found out the truth of the matter after listening to Li Xunhuan's words. It turns out that you got into trouble just to help us! We I’m so grateful to you!”
The night was getting darker and the moon was dimming. In the study room of Li Qingge’s mansion, the candlelight flickered, reflecting her firm and gentle face. She was wearing an elegant purple robe with fluttering skirts. She was like the brightest star in the night sky, emitting a light that could not be ignored.
"Master Li, you are too polite. My small act of kindness is nothing compared to your contribution to the country. There is no need to worship me." Li Qingge smiled, his tone was gentle but revealed an unquestionable majesty. It's like the warm wind in spring, but it contains the coldness of autumn frost.
Qian Toyota, a fat businessman with a smooth face, was standing in front of Li Qingge, forcing a forced smile. His eyes were flickering, but there were mixed feelings in his heart, and he was cursing secretly. I think back then, he was also the boss of a bank and lived a free and easy life, but now he is tied up by a bronze plaque and he has become a good man with no name. To him, this plaque is simply useless, and it was not given by Li Qingge. Whenever he thought of this, he felt itchy with hatred.
However, he still had a smile on his face at this moment, and the smile was so stiff that it looked fake. Li Qingge saw it and smiled in his heart: "This old guy hates me to the core, and he pretends to be so flattering on the surface. He is really an old profiteer. Although I don't like him, I think he hasn't made any big mistakes yet. Now He is in such a state of despair again, let’s help him and see what he will do next.”
“Qian Shanren, let’s not be polite and talk directly.” Turning around, his tone became serious, like the cold wind in winter, which made people shiver, "You know in your heart that you did not come from that batch of food, but now you have received a gift from the Holy One. Have you ever thought about it, what if? What will be the consequences if this matter is leaked? "
As soon as these words came out, Qian Toyota felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his whole body trembled, his knees softened and he knelt down again. He was trembling all over, breaking out in cold sweat, and his face was as pale as paper. The crime of deceiving the emperor would implicate the nine clans, how could he not know? But this happened out of nowhere. I became a good person out of nowhere, and now it's too late to defend myself.
Could it be that this guy wants to take this opportunity to blackmail me? Qian Fengtian was in a state of anxiety, and quickly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "General Cheng, please show me your noble hand! My family is now bankrupt and has nothing." His voice was crying and looked extremely sad.
"Good people are too humble. It's not the Chinese New Year yet, and you won't get any red envelopes for kowtowing." Li Qingge teased, with a playful smile on his lips, and he gained the upper hand first. There was a bit of teasing and ridicule in her eyes, as if she was watching a good show.
"General, as long as you can spare my life, I am willing to do anything. Even if I accept you as my father, I will not complain! Please have mercy!" As he said this, Qian Toyota actually hugged Li Qingge's hand. They kept their legs together, and the intimacy was so intense that it was almost embarrassing. His tears and nose were streaming down his face, and he was in a miserable state.
Li Qingge looked shocked, his mouth twitched, and he was speechless: "I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen such shameless people! In order to survive, he would even do such a thing as recognizing his son as his father. This face is really thicker than the city wall!" She cursed in her heart, but her face remained calm.
She shouted angrily: "Go away! I don't have a son as old as you!" She pushed Qian Toyota away with disgust on her face. Then she sat still, her expression so enigmatic that it was hard to fathom. There was a bit of coldness and majesty in her eyes, as if she could see into people's hearts.
Qian Toyota was so frightened that he cried and begged: "General, please tell me what to do to survive! I am willing to bankrupt my fortune to atone for my sins!" His voice was full of despair and pleading, as if a drowning man was seeking the last lifeline. straw.
Seeing that the heat was almost done, Li Qingge smiled and said: "For the sake of being so pitiful, I will give you a way to survive. As long as you do one thing for me, I will not report this matter to Your Majesty." Her voice was soft and majestic, like the spring breeze blowing on her face but with the chill of autumn frost.
"General, as you may command, I, Qian Toyota, will go through fire and water without hesitation!" Qian Toyota agreed repeatedly, for fear of being a little too late. There was some firmness and determination in his eyes, as if he was ready to die.
“It’s very simple, continue to donate food to the south of the Yangtze River until the floods pass.” Li Qingge finally stated his purpose. There was some depth and wisdom in her eyes, as if she could see everything in the world.
"General, you are making things difficult for me. I am already a pauper. Where can I donate food?" Qian Toyota looked pale and desperate. All the family's money has been chased by creditors, and they have recently been selling off their property to fill the hole. Apart from this house, there is nothing left. There was a bit of helplessness and despair in his eyes, as if he had reached the end of his life.
"The good people have misunderstood. I am not asking you to donate your own food, but I have food in hand and want to help Jiangnan. I am just borrowing your name." Li Qingge explained. Her voice was calm and firm, like a warm current flowing into Qian Toyota's heart.
"So that's it..." Qian Toyota finally understood. It turned out that Li Qingge wanted to use this batch of food of unknown origin to cleanse himself, so he agreed. There was some relief and gratitude in his eyes, as if he had returned to the world from hell. He knew that this was the last chance Li Qingge gave him, and he must cherish it.
As an inconspicuous young general, Li Qingge suddenly decided to donate a large amount of food. This decision will undoubtedly arouse suspicion from others. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, she found me and hoped that I could handle the matter for her.
I suddenly realized that this boy - no, this girl, is actually quite similar to me. We all have dark secrets and hidden ingenuity. Toyota took a deep breath, raised his head and looked directly at Qing Ge, feeling an inexplicable feeling of closeness in his heart. "General Cheng, there is no need to say anything unnecessary. I understand what you mean. But having said that, what benefits can I get?" After speaking, Toyota's fear disappeared instantly and turned into a trace of disdain. Since we are all the same kind of people, what is there to be afraid of?
At this moment, the system’s warning sound sounded in Qing Ge’s mind: “Ding! System warning: The host is a rich man, but he is despised. The contempt is beyond words. Wuwei Lieping’s system senses This emotion has triggered the reward mechanism." Ding! The system gives you a treasure: "Cornucopia: Just put in the silver, and the silver will increase automatically." "Theoretically, its capacity can be accommodated. The wealth of the world.”
When Qingge heard the system prompt, her eyes widened in surprise. She took a deep breath, but she still couldn't hide her excitement. She looked around to make sure there was no one around, then quietly said to herself: "Treasure bowl? As I expected, certain situations will trigger the system, and the treasures given by the system are always just right. This is a bank, where money is gathered." place, so the system gave me a cornucopia of treasures.”
She felt ecstatic, as if she had already seen the day when she would become the richest man in the Tang Dynasty. "Oh! This cornucopia is simply endless wealth. Am I already the richest man in the Tang Dynasty?" Qing Ge felt as if she was dreaming. She pinched her thigh, and the pain told her that this was not a dream. , is true.
She turned around, smiled and said to Toyota: "That's it. And I will never treat you badly. I will deposit money into the bank regularly in the future to help you get back on your feet. "After saying that, she was eager to try the magic of this cornucopia, so she turned around and prepared to leave.
Toyoda was so grateful that tears filled his eyes, and he kowtowed repeatedly: "Thank you, General Cheng. From now on, I am willing to work for you without any complaints."
"Get up. See you at the city gate tomorrow. , hand over the food." After Qingge finished speaking, he left gracefully.
However, Toyota's smiling face instantly faded and turned resentful after Qingge left. "Bah! Why are you pretending to be noble? You are so cunning at a young age, hiding so much food, and you are more greedy than me." "One day, you will be severely punished by His Majesty. When the time comes, I will set off firecrackers to celebrate the Three Days. Night.”
Qing Ge quickly returned to Cheng Mansion on horseback. She walked into the study, closed the door, and activated the system's storage space with her mind. It is filled with various props, the most conspicuous of which is the newly added gleaming gold basin, which is inlaid with jewels and jade and shines with dazzling light.
"Is this the cornucopia? It's really not a mortal thing, it's sparkling gold." Qing Ge murmured to himself, "Let me try how quickly it generates silver."
She carefully took out the cornucopia. According to the system description, the method of using it is similar to farming. As long as you put money in, it will increase. But at what rate? If you only add one tael of silver every day, it is of no use. However, Qing Ge had a strong premonition, and she felt that the speed of this cornucopia must be very fast.
The moment the cornucopia was taken out, the whole room was filled with golden light. The simple study suddenly became magnificent, and an aura of wealth came to my face. Qingge seemed to be in a dream world. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, feeling the aura of wealth she had never experienced before.
"Is this what wealth feels like?" She murmured to herself, "No wonder everyone in the world is so chasing fame and fortune."
She calmed down and looked inside the cornucopia. It was filled with smoke and dotted with stars, as if there was a vast world hidden inside. She couldn't help but reach out to touch the stars and smoke, but her hands penetrated them, as if they were just illusory existences.
"No wonder it is said to be inexhaustible. It turns out that there really is a universe inside! Could this be a treasure from the heavenly palace?" Qing Ge became curious and couldn't help but stretch out his hand. Went in to explore. But as soon as her hand touched the pelvic floor, she stopped because she felt a strong force preventing her from exploring further.
"I understand. This cornucopia can only increase the amount of silver. Putting other things in it will still be an ordinary basin." Qing Ge suddenly realized, "Then let's try it with some silver."
She smiled and took out some scattered silver from her body and carefully put it into the cornucopia. Just hearing a "ding" sound, the smoke dissipated, and a vast world appeared in front of her eyes. There are mountains and rivers, clouds and mist, but no living beings there. Qing Ge seemed to be in a fairyland, and she looked at this magical world in amazement.
"It's just as I thought, there really is a space inside! Maybe this is an independent world!" She said excitedly, "This must be a treasure left behind by the Heavenly Palace!"
She endured She couldn't help but reach out to touch the mountains, rivers and clouds, but her hands penetrated them, as if they were just illusory existences. However, when she took her hand back, she found that she had some more silver in her hand. She looked at the silver in surprise, feeling ecstatic in her heart.
"Haha, this cornucopia is really magical! It can actually produce money!" Qing Ge laughed and said, "It seems that I am really going to become the richest man in the Tang Dynasty!"
