Chapter 44: Underground Palace Treasures
In the dark underground palace, along the only tunnel that is not blocked by falling rocks and collapses, you can see a gorgeously restored underground palace.
In the main hall of the palace, the lights flickered.
Although the light was weak, there was still a huge night pearl shining on the top.
The ground is covered with gold and silver, which is dazzling. Gold cups and silver cups are set on the table.
There are also several pure gold statues of the Five Gods Religion in the hall. Of course, they are not the ferocious prototypes of the monsters, but the statues of anthropomorphized gods.
Follow the bright lights and go straight into a warehouse.
What is accumulated in the warehouse is the wealth accumulated by the Five Gods Sect that has been entrenched in Jiangzhou for hundreds of years.
All kinds of gold and silver treasures are piled up like mountains, including famous calligraphy and paintings, porcelain and antiques, famous swords and beautiful jade.
The treasures that everyone thought were buried in the sea of fire are all here now.
"Quack, quack, quack, this gold and jade bed is not bad, not bad. It's so good. Master, it will definitely be comfortable to move back to the Taoist temple and sleep there." The donkey spread out on a big bed inlaid with gold and jade, and his eyes looked yellow.
Finance for one.
"This scabbard is very good. It suits me very well." There were seven or eight pearls inlaid on the scabbard, which even corrupted the upright Qinglong boy in the past.
The donkey jumped up from the bed of gold and jade, and then ran around the entire warehouse, just like a horse racing in an enclosure.
"Uh-huh! Uh-huh! It's all uh-huh! Quack, quack, quack, we're rich."
"This gold cup, jade cup, ivory chopsticks, and gold chamber pot must be moved back."
"No, why are you moving back here?" Donkey suddenly realized that he was so rich, why would he want to use a broken Taoist temple that leaked air and rain?
"Master, we will live in Jiangting from now on, so we still have everything we want? We can buy whatever we want? Even if we are the master of Yinhua Palace, we won't do it!"
Donkey has been immersed in getting rich overnight. From now on, he will live a life of revelry with the Great Immortal every day. He will have breakfast at Cuiyunju in the morning, a banquet at Tianxianglou at noon, and a meal of fine wines, with less than fifty taels per jar.
Don't even look at it.
Immortal Kongchenzi, who is regarded by people all over the world as treating money like dirt, is looking at them in such an ugly manner from behind with sorrow.
"General Donkey, where is the boy Qinglong!"
A scolding woke them both up from their dreams.
The two came quickly and stopped in front of the Great Immortal Kongchenzi.
"General Donkey is here." The donkey galloped over.
"The Azure Dragon Protector is here." The Azure Dragon Protector appeared on the sword, bowed his head and bowed.
Immortal Kong Chenzi put his hands in his sleeves and held them in front of his chest. He didn't even look at the mountains of gold, silver, wooden boxes and rare treasures in the warehouse, but looked at them calmly.
There was a hint of hatred in his calm eyes.
With a sigh, the great immortal spoke eloquently and expressed his original intention of going down the mountain this time.
"This great immortal came down from the mountain this time to subjugate demons and save the common people from water and fire with the sword."
"Not for the sake of wealth and pleasure."
The Immortal pointed at the entire property in the warehouse, as if everything was just passing smoke, dust and rocks. Even though it was priceless, he didn't care about it at all.
"These ill-gotten gains should be sealed here without taking any money."
General Donkey seemed to have gotten to know the Great Immortal Kongchenzi again, his eyes widened.
"Master? Really... you won't take any penny? Not even a penny?"
Immortal Kongchenzi nodded: "Yes, if the people of the world are in need in the future, if we take out these gold and silver treasures, I don't know how many people can be saved by then."
"This is the only way to achieve immeasurable merit and turn these ill-gotten wealth into righteous ways."
A generous word, full of righteousness contained in the words.
The general Donkey Protector and the Green Dragon Protector boy were so ashamed and ashamed.
Immortal Kong Chenzi turned away and said leisurely.
"For those of us who are practicing Taoism, what we pay attention to is having the breeze on our sleeves. How can we covet and enjoy luxury?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the thick and bulging stack of banknotes in his sleeves suddenly slipped down and fell to the ground with a snapping sound.
The first one in person was one thousand taels.
I don’t know how much silver this thick stack is.
It turns out that the most portable and valuable things have already been put in the bag.
The donkey protector found that compared to the great immortal, he was still too immature.
So what if those rare treasures are valuable? They are not things that can be easily moved, let alone exchanged for money.
"Ahem!"
The Daxian calmly bent down and picked up the banknotes on the ground.
The great immortal showed a look of sorrow and pity on his face: "The wine and meat of Zhumen are stinky, and there are bones frozen to death on the road!"
"Walking along this journey, what I saw and heard, the suffering of the people made me feel the same."
"I will definitely encounter helpless and poor people along the road, so I took some ill-gotten gains to prepare for emergencies."
"If you encounter someone on the road, let me use this money to help those people who need help!"
This is quite reasonable, and the two guardians can't find any reason to refute it.
Just as he bent down to pick up the stack, a stack of banknotes from the other sleeve also slipped out.
This stack.
thicker.
General Donkey and Qinglong Boy looked directly at the Great Immortal Kongchenzi. The three of them stared at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly felt awkward.
Daxian immediately used the technique of changing the topic.
"But this time, General Donkey and Boy Qinglong have made great achievements in slaying the devil's den of the Five Gods Religion. They should indeed be rewarded."
"Just put on the scabbard!"
With just one sentence, he immediately won over the innocent Qinglong boy.
The Qinglong boy was overjoyed: "Thank you, Master, for the reward!"
"As for General Donkey!"
The great immortal Kongchenzi opened the stack of banknotes and counted them.
This was to give him some money. The Donkey Protector General immediately became excited and his breathing became heavy.
The donkey glanced at the denominations of one thousand taels, five hundred taels, and three hundred taels inside.
Finally, the Great Immortal Kongchenzi took out a fifty-tael silver note from such a thick stack.
"I'll give you one!"
If it had been before, the donkey would definitely have been overjoyed. He just looked at the thick pile in the immortal's hand, then at the other sleeve of the immortal, and finally looked back at the mountain of treasures.
Suddenly I felt that these fifty taels were a bit cold.
"You can't catch it even if I give it to you, so let me keep it for you temporarily! If there is anything you want to eat or buy on the way, just tell me and I will deduct it from your fifty taels."
The fifty-tael bank note that I just drew out was taken back.
"..."
The candles went out one after another, the last passage was blocked by falling rocks, and this huge treasure was buried underground.
When he reappeared, it was already an alley in Jiangting County.
"Sir! Where shall we go next?"
"Going back or not?"
General Donkey asked as he walked towards the street carrying the Great Immortal Kongchen.
