It was mid-morning and the sun was high in the sky.
The streets of Jinling City are bustling with people and there is endless prosperity and hustle and bustle.
Wang Ye and Zhang Daoxuan walked side by side towards Yihongyuan in the south of the city.
Although this Daoxuan's body and bones are broken, his steps are steady and he walks like the wind.
In just a moment, Wang Ye was left behind.
Looking at Zhang Daoxuan walking in front of him, Wang Ye couldn't help but roll his eyes.
This old man talks nicely.
What kind of person is he who enjoys cultivating himself and helping the world, and has a pure heart and few desires?
As a result, the speed to get to Yihongyuan was ridiculously fast!
I don’t know, I thought it was Zhang Daoxuan who took me to Yihongyuan...
"This Jinling is indeed the capital city of Tongdu, and it is extremely prosperous..."
At this time, Zhang Daoxuan looked at the prosperous scene around him and said: "What I saw today is really extraordinary..."
"This level of prosperity is difficult for Jiangling City to match!"
"Daozhang Zhang..."
Just when Zhang Daoxuan was feeling extremely emotional, Wang Ye rushed up from behind and said, "Whether it's Jinling or Jiangling, can you stop walking so fast?"
While speaking, Wang Ye gasped and said: "I can't catch up with your speed!"
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
After hearing Wang Ye's words, Zhang Daoxuan said: "Pindao was attracted by this grand scene for a moment, and he didn't even take care of shopkeeper Wang..."
As soon as he said this, Wang Ye rolled his eyes again.
This old man has traveled far and wide and has extensive knowledge.
In addition, if he can find a place like Changle Gambling House, he must also know something about Jinling City.
Only a ghost would believe that you can be attracted by the magnificent scenery like this!
I'm afraid this old man is more anxious than me and is rushing to Yihongyuan!
Thinking of this, Wang Ye just prepared to say something.
At this moment, the sound of beating bamboo boards suddenly came.
"The sound of beating bamboo boards can be heard throughout the sky, and the rich people in Jinling are also kind. Fathers and elders, please do well and you will be rewarded with a lot of money and can eat your fill!"
Looking around, he saw a beggar standing not far away, holding a bamboo board and asking for money.
beggar?
Seeing this, Wang Ye's brows narrowed slightly.
Jinling City has been prosperous since ancient times, and there are very few beggars. Even if there are sporadic beggars, they will be sent to almshouses in varying degrees.
There are even fewer people who ask for money for such a plan.
Thinking of this, Wang Ye glanced at the beggar twice and found clues.
Although this beggar was dressed in rags, he had four pockets on him.
Not only that? This beggar has a strong body, not as thin as other beggars.
The four-bag disciples of the Beggar Clan…
After seeing this bag? Wang Yimei thought secretly.
After what happened with the Iron-Armed Beggar Buddha last time? When he saw the disciples of the Beggar Clan again, Wang Ye felt a little more alert in his heart.
Disciples of the Beggar Clan appeared in Jinling again.
Is it possible? What are the beggars doing?
"Another piece of shit from the Beggar Clan!"
Just as Wang Ye was thinking secretly, Zhang Daoxuan on the side said: "Since the death of the old gang leader Hong? This beggar gang has become an evil heretic? They cheat, kidnap and steal without committing any evil. It's really disgusting!"
Hearing this, Wang Ye nodded.
Just when he was about to say something, a beggar bumped into Zhang Daoxuan's arms.
"Master Dao? I'm sorry, Master Dao!"
After bumping into Zhang Daoxuan? The beggar said a word and then ran forward.
"Where can the little thief escape!?"
After the beggar ran away, a man in civilian clothes hit Wang Ye again and chased after the beggar.
It looked like the beggar had just stolen the common man's money.
"Daozhang Zhang? Quickly see if you still have your money!"
Seeing this scene, Wang Ye hurriedly reminded him.
This group of beggar gang disciples not only abduct and sell children? They are also quite proficient in stealing and pickpocketing.
The method of bumping into people and stealing money is a common trick.
"Don't worry, Shopkeeper Wang..."
Hearing this? Zhang Daoxuan smiled slightly and said: "Such a petty theft trick? You can't even steal Pindao's money..."
"Not only that? Pindao also made a fortune!"
Saying that? Zhang Daoxuan took out a bulging money bag from behind, opened it and showed a smile: "A total of twenty-five taels of silver, which is quite a lot..."
???
As soon as these words came out, Wang Ye froze on the spot.
He looked at Zhang Daoxuan in front of him and said, "Daozhang Zhang, this money bag is..."
"That beggar's..."
Looking at Wang Ye's expression, Zhang Daoxuan said: "Why is this poor guy traveling all over the world? He wants to steal my money in such a way. It's really laughable!"
"It just so happens that these twenty-five taels of silver can leave a lot of expenses!"
Hearing this, Wang Ye couldn't help but shook his head.
Not even a penny was lost during the theft, not only that, but he also stole twenty-five taels of silver from the beggar. This Daoxuan's way is really wild.
I'm afraid the thief just now is going to lose his blood!
Thinking of this, Wang Ye smiled.
Then he and Zhang Daoxuan walked towards Yihongyuan.
…
A moment later, in a secluded alley in Jinling City.
The beggar who had just fled was sitting in the alley, with a slight sense of anticipation on his face.
Beside him was the man in civilian clothes who had just been chasing him.
The two looked relaxed and did not feel like they were chasing each other just now.
Obviously, these two men were just pretending to chase, but in fact they wanted to steal other people's property...
"How about it?"
At this time, the man in cloth looked at the beggar and said, "How much silver did you get from that old Taoist priest just now?"
As he spoke, the commoner man looked expectant.
"Hey, that smart-assed poor guy, I haven't touched a penny..."
At this time, the beggar curled his lips and asked the man in cloth: "What about you? How much did you touch from the man next to the old Taoist priest?"
"I didn't touch anything either!"
The man in cloth smacked his thigh and said, "After a long day of hard work, we stole two poor guys together!"
As he spoke, there was a hint of dissatisfaction on his face.
"Okay, there are many rich people in Jinling City, and there will be many opportunities in the future..."
Hearing this, the beggar smiled and said, "I'm hungry after running all the way. Let's go eat something good!"
As he spoke, the beggar put his hand into his arms and prepared to take out his money bag.
As a result, the smile suddenly solidified on his face.
Because, his arms were empty, and there was no trace of the money bag at all.
Feeling this, the beggar panicked.
After groping with his hands for a while, he still couldn't find any trace of the money bag.
"broken!"
At this time, the beggar looked at the clothed man beside him and said, "My money bag is missing!"
"Look at your potential..."
Hearing this, the commoner man said: "I didn't steal the money, but I put my own money on it."
"That's all, I'll treat you to something this time, and you'll pay me back after you steal the money in the afternoon!"
As he said this, the man in cloth put his hand into his arms and touched it.
At that moment, his expression also froze on his face.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing the look on the man's face, the beggar asked.
"My purse..."
Hearing this, the man in civilian clothes slowly rolled the bricks and said, "He's gone too!"
