Reborn as Murong Fu: This time I am the protagonist

The most talked-about thing among the people of Suzhou these days is the sky-high reward offered by the Murong clan of Gusu.

Thirty thousand taels of gold were given to three monks. Anyone who provided valid information would receive a reward of 10,000 taels. For a time, the streets and government offices were all discussing this matter with great enthusiasm.

At that time, gold had not yet been circulated as the main pricing currency. The most commonly used currency on the market was copper coins. One tael of gold could be exchanged for about 15 guan of gold. At this time, the annual coins given by the Song State to the Liao State were about 400,000 guan.

The reputation of the Murong family in Gusu has always been far-reaching in the Jiangnan area. They have always had a reputation for being charitable and eager for justice. In Suzhou alone, there are countless people who have received help from the Murong family, ranging from poor children to beggars. Yamen officials were more or less favored by the Murong family.

It is said that some monks sneaked into Murong's house while Mr. Murong was out, stole something, and even killed someone. Mr. Murong was so angry that he offered such a generous reward. At the same time, he also made conditions. If a martial artist provided information , or participate in the arrest, whether successful or not, you can go to Murong's house and choose three martial arts secret books that suit you as needed.

As we all know, the Murong family enjoys a great reputation in the world by virtue of the method of "replying others with their own way". Some people even rumored that the descendants of the Murong family are knowledgeable and skilled in all martial arts in the world. As a If people in the martial arts world can obtain the martial arts secrets of the Murong family, in time they will surely be able to become a master in the martial arts world.

Compared with the astronomical reward of thirty thousand taels of gold, this condition obviously moved the hearts of people in the world more.

After all, gold has a price, but the best martial arts secrets have a price but no market. In the world of martial arts, it is not enough to have money alone, but also to have a life to spend.

Under the heavy reward, the entire Jiangnan area was boiling. In the past, those yamen fast workers and head catchers who did not work hard have become upright and chivalrous men these days, vowing to fight against evil to the end, swearing to In order to bring the evil monk to justice, although the notice posted by the state government mentioned that the evil monk was highly skilled in martial arts and not a good person, so he must be dealt with with caution, but Mr. Murong also said in the notice that if the prince For those who died in the line of duty while arresting evil monks, the Murong family would receive an additional one thousand taels of gold as a pension. From now on, the Murong family would support their wives, children, and children.

Three taels of gold is enough for a well-to-do family to live comfortably for a year. The official salary of an ordinary official in the government office does not exceed two taels of gold at most.

For a time, the whole of Suzhou, and even the nearby prefectures and counties, became agitated. The government offered an unprecedented reward of up to 8,000 yuan. No one took it seriously. Everyone worked hard, hoping that they could get the reward from the Murong family. The sky-high price of the reward.

For a time, the shopkeepers, waiters, and waiters of every inn, teahouse, and wine shop stared with wide eyes at anyone who might resemble the person in the portrait. Even the cook would run forward from time to time on the pretext of delivering food. He came to the hall, afraid that he would miss a windfall from heaven.

I heard that the person Murong's family was looking for was a monk. During this period, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at the monk. In the past, no one would look at the monk's bald head. Now, everyone looks at the monk's bald head as if Looking at the shining gold ingots, many people who were born bald were also unlucky.

In a deep house somewhere in Suzhou.

This is another residence of the Murong family in Gusu, not Shenhe Mansion, because Murong Fu had to personally confirm whether the information was true. After all, in this case, there are many people with ulterior motives who cheat. Losing some money is not a big deal, but a waste of time. A real loss.

Murong Fu was drinking tea with Emperor Baoding and three other people. Gao Shengtai and others were sent out by Emperor Baoding to find out the news. According to the agreement, once traces of Jiumozhi and others are found, they should not alert the snake first, but directly send someone to report the news. , surrounded and killed several people together.

Emperor Baoding said: "Mr. Murong, it has been three days now, and there is no useful news at all. The people who have come here these days are just some idle people who are cheating and cheating. If this continues, I am afraid that we will not find any trace of Jiumozhi. The other party has already returned to Tubo."

Murong Fu smiled and said: "Senior, there is no need to worry, it is impossible for Jiumozhi and others to leave the Song Dynasty."

Duan Zhengming asked: "Where do you start talking about this?"

Murong Fu said: "First of all, we searched the waters of Taihu Lake two days ago and did not find the body of Tianmani, Jiumozhi's junior brother. So we can conclude that Jiumozhi should have wanted to follow the habits of Tubo Esotericism and bring his junior brother back. Tubo practiced sky burial, so it was impossible to hide the body from others.

This time, after the Battle of Shuige, we used an eight-hundred-mile horse to post the announcements to all neighboring states and counties. The other party could not be faster than us. It is true that with the other party's force, ordinary people would not be able to stop them. You can't help it, but once the other party makes some noise, their whereabouts will be exposed. "

"So, the other party may still be hiding in a corner, waiting for an opportunity."

"During this period, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Hmm, how long can Jiumozhi hide?"

Sanben suddenly understood, but still felt uneasy: "But, in this case, we still can't find each other. There is nothing an ordinary gentleman can do against each other. Even if we meet Jiumozhi alone, it will probably be a disaster."

"That's why I offered such a huge bounty to build momentum. There will be brave men under the reward. As long as Jiumozhi reveals his presence in front of anyone, our search scope can be narrowed."

Everyone was silent.

In fact, this means forcing Jiumozhi to show up at the cost of ordinary people's lives. With the other party's current level of madness, in order to hide himself, it is very likely that he will kill him when his whereabouts are exposed, so Murong Fu even offered a pension in the reward. arrive.

Murong Fu and others have seen Jiumozhi's martial arts before. Even if a master hurts someone, even if he deliberately hides his martial arts, he will still leave some clues. These clues are clearly visible to the master.

At this moment, Batianshi walked in: "Comrades, things have taken shape."

The four people stood up suddenly: "If you have any news, tell me quickly."

Batianshi said: "Just yesterday, a merchant who was doing tea business in Suzhou died suddenly. The cause of death was said to be a sudden illness in the middle of the night. When Tianming's family found out, they had already been out of breath for a long time."

Duan Zhengming said: "I think it's because of overwork, I don't know."

Batianshi said: "Coincidentally, this merchant is said to be from Sichuan, his hometown is in Chengdu, and his wife and daughter are preparing to transport his body back to Chengdu for burial in the next two days."

Everyone was suddenly shocked and understood what Batianshi meant.

Duan Zhengming said: "Ba Sikong, take us to that family quickly!"
