She always plays cards out of the ordinary

Chapter 207 Tianlong 8 Part 20

The servant shouted several times, but the figure of the senior manager kept running farther and farther away. Looking at Ah Zhu's calm face, the servant did not dare to say anything.

He carefully approached the strongest of the yamen runners. Although he knew that this man was just defeated by Ah Zhu, his strong body still gave the servant a sense of security.

He stopped shouting at this moment. After all, he dared not disobey the words of the Gao family, nor did he dare to offend the doctor in front of him. He had no choice but to hide beside the yamen runner and wait for the Gao family to bring people.

They just kept waiting, and it was almost dark, but Gao's family still hadn't returned. That whole afternoon, because the yamen runners were guarding there, the common people didn't dare to come to see the doctor.

Ah Zhu had already packed up the examination table and returned to her room. Once the gate was closed, what did those people outside have to do with her?

Ah Zhu prepared the most sumptuous meal before her departure, a buffet hotpot. These were the things she stockpiled in her previous life, for fear that they would not be available in the next world.

In the small iron pot, the red butter bottom, plus the various meats and vegetables you put in, the taste is fragrant and spicy, making people drool.

Fortunately, we are in space, otherwise the smell is so strong that people around us will definitely be able to smell it, which would be so tempting.

During these days, Ah Zhu also understood what kind of life the common people lived at that time. Their clothes were patched up with patches, and they could only eat until they were 50% full. The women even ate less, and they could only have meat once a year at most. They got up earlier than chickens, slept later than dogs, and ate less than cats.

Ah Zhu was extremely grateful that she was picked up by Murong Fu, otherwise, on such a day, she might have wanted to commit suicide as soon as she came here.

She didn’t understand how the protagonists in those time-travel novels could seamlessly adapt to a society where people were hungry, cold, and lacked sanitary napkins and toilet paper?

After dinner, Ah Zhu rested for a while, changed into night clothes and went to the county magistrate's backyard. Coincidentally, the county magistrate was not asleep at that time.

He was admiring a new screen in his study. Even Ah Zhu, who was used to seeing good things, was a little surprised by the screen.

It's not that it is very precious, but it has a nouveau riche feel. It is a screen made of gold, with some gold leaves and flowers standing on it. The whole thing is shiny.

Ah Zhu secretly shook her head, it was so ugly, it would be better to just make it into a money tree, it would complement each other better, making a screen like this, it felt ugly in every way.

But no matter how ugly it is, it doesn't stop Ah Zhu from taking it away. Such a big piece of gold can be used to do many things.

When he wasn't paying attention, Ah Zhu quietly flicked a pill into the county magistrate's teacup, and watched him admiring the screen while drinking tea happily.

He even watched the county magistrate send everyone away, and then he dragged the screen into the secret room by himself.

After the magistrate fainted, she jumped down and cleared out his secret room.

The next day, news came from the county magistrate's mansion that the county magistrate had suffered a stroke. He could not speak, could not move, and could not control his excretion.

But Ah Zhu, the miracle doctor, was no longer here. The old lady ordered the Gao family to be beaten to death because they failed to invite Ah Zhu back.

Only Ah Zhu had a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry. She secretly sighed in her heart that the magistrate could earn tens of thousands of silver coins a year, and the ancients were right.

The autumn dusk always comes quickly. It seems that just after lunch, the sun has already set in the west. After disguising herself, Ah Zhu walks slowly on the rugged path with a horse and a sword.

By the time she reached the town, she could only see the tail of the sun. In order to avoid having to sleep outdoors in the mountains again tonight, Ah Zhu pinched the horse's belly and urged it to run faster.

Finally, the man and the horse stopped outside an inn. As soon as Ah Zhu got off the horse, the waiter came out to greet the guest.

"Sir, do you want to eat or stay in the hotel?"

The other person led the horse into the stable very obediently, and Ah Zhu followed the waiter in.

"How do you calculate accommodation and meals here?"

Although Ah Zhu is not short of money, she does not intend to be a sucker. The kind of person who comes without asking the price and directly asks for the best room is obviously a fat sheep, just wait to be slaughtered.

"Sir, our hotel has three types of rooms: upper, middle and lower, and the prices are 800 wen, 500 wen, and 100 wen respectively.

The superior rooms provide dinner and breakfast on the second day, the middle rooms only provide breakfast, and the inferior rooms provide nothing.

Sir, what kind of room do you want to stay in?"

"Just a medium-sized room."

"Okay, I'll take you up right away."

Ah Zhu followed the waiter upstairs and just happened to pass by a group of people.

When she saw the person coming, Ah Zhu's pupils shrank for a moment. She didn't expect that she would run into Murong Fu, her nominal master, when she was only halfway there.

Murong Fu was accompanied by Bao Bu Tong and others. Obviously, Wang Yuyan did not find Murong Fu, and she didn't know how she and Duan Yu were doing now.

Murong Fu didn't know that the strange woman who passed by him was his maid Ah Zhu. He was talking to Deng Baichuan.

Ah Zhu didn't want to stop, but went into the room, put down her bag, and went downstairs to order a pot of tea. She drank it while listening to the conversation next door.

"Sir, should we go to Xiaoyao Sect to participate in the Zhenlong chess game?"

Deng Baichuan was a little hesitant. He didn't know much about the Xiaoyao Sect, or rather, most people in the martial arts world didn't know much about the Xiaoyao Sect.

This sect is not as well-known as the Beggars' Sect or the Shaolin Temple. Instead, it is very low-key, and there is a certain mystery in this low-keyness.

After all, Deng Baichuan is the eldest of the four generals, so he always considers things more comprehensively and is therefore relatively cautious.

But just as he finished speaking, before Murong Fu could say anything, the third brother Bao Bu Tong spoke.

"No, no, big brother, it is precisely because the Xiaoyao Sect is quite mysterious that we should go and take a look.

Think about it, the Xiaoyao Sect used to be low-key, but now it suddenly sends out invitations to heroes, summoning heroes from all over the world to break the Zhenlong chess game. No matter how you think about it, you know there is something fishy going on."

Lao Si Fengbo said with a malicious smile, "Since you knew there was something fishy going on, why did you still go?"

Bao Bu Tong stroked his mustache. He really had nothing to say about Feng Bo'e, a rough guy who only knew how to fight.

But since the young master and elder brother were still there, he couldn't help but argue with them.

"No, no, sir, what is the purpose of our coming out? Isn't it to gather all the martial arts talents?

The Xiaoyao Sect has such a big show, I wonder how many people it will attract. If the young master can solve the chess game, it will not only be good for his reputation, but he may also be able to recruit many heroes on the spot.

When the time comes, on the day of restoring the country, you will raise your arm and all the heroes in the martial arts world will rush to help. Restoring the glory of our Great Yan will be just around the corner."

When Bao Bu Tong heard this, the other people felt their blood boiling and they couldn't wait for that day to come.

Ah Zhu was listening nearby and couldn't help but sigh that Bao Bu Tong was truly a talented person. If this guy were put in modern times, he would definitely be an expert in pyramid schemes.

Upon seeing this, Murong Fu also wanted to express his own thoughts, but Bao Bu Tong interrupted him again.
