There were a lot of Jianghu people who followed along to watch the excitement. At this time, everyone saw that people from all major sects were leaving, and they naturally would not stay, so they followed and said goodbye to Lingtianmen.

   As the current head of Lingtianmen, Li Baolu had to get up and send people out of the bamboo forest, sending them away before turning around.

   It's just that the representatives of the major sects are still in Lingtianmen, they are waiting for tomorrow's match between An Ji and Bai Yitang.

   But before that, there is still a big thing to do. Bai Yitang has to take the guards to their warehouse to clean up the ledgers and various things accumulated in it.

This time, Gu Jingyun followed suit and took Zhao Ning out with him. The group turned around half of the hill and shuttled through the dense forest. The strange thing was that despite the overgrown weeds, the mule carts they brought could always pass through the white hills. A leading road.

   In this way, a group of people walked and cut grass and came to a mountain wall.

   That's right, it's a mountain wall. When you look up, it's a mountain wall. The captain of the guard twitched the corner of his mouth and turned to look at Bai Yitang, saying, "There was no way before."

  Bai Yitang looked at the mountain wall tangled with vines and tried to recall the location of the organ that Master brought him to open.

  Although every disaster relief order was given by him, the people who came to get money and things were all from the secret door, so he hadn’t been to this place for many years.

   In addition, this plant is growing too fast. If it weren't for the road, he almost thought he had gone to the wrong place. Really, why are these vines growing so lush?

Bai Yitang groped for a long time on the stone wall, and finally found the little bumps behind the vines. His hand quickly clicked on the six irregularly distributed bumps in a certain order, and the stone wall rumbling like a slow response. " to open.

   The guards grew their mouths.

  Gu Jingyun withdrew his gaze. Even with his eyes, he couldn't see Bai Yitang's movements. It seemed that he didn't have to worry about the way to open the door being learned.

  But if the agency does not limit the conditions, one can also unlock the password one by one. After all, there are only six points in total, but the order is different, and there are few possibilities.

Bai Yitang seemed to know what he was thinking, turned his head and smiled at him: "This is not a random press, the first time you press it wrongly, but if you press it wrong the second time, then the preset mechanism here is not a decoration. And if you press the wrong button for the third time within three months, there is a stone gate behind the stone wall, and that stone gate will completely fall and close to death. Unless you know the second unlock code, it will not be able to open.

   "The patriarch of Lingtianmen really worked very hard."

   Bai Yitang said with a sense of disappointment: "This was not set up by the patriarch, but by his subordinates."

   King Nio does not care about external things like money, that money just flows to the victims through his hands.

   But his subordinates were different. Those who passed the master's hand belonged to the master. The master used it for those poor people, but it was the master's heart, but he did not allow others to covet, so the security measures were well done.

   The group waited outside for an hour, and when the smell was almost gone, they went in with a torch.

  The whole mountain seemed to be hollowed out, and the torches in their hands could not illuminate the edge. It was not until everyone walked through the whole cave and plugged in the torches that they knew how big the cave was.

  The head guard widened his eyes to see the traces on the ground, swallowed and asked, "Master Bai, was this place full of boxes before?"

  This cave is bigger than a national treasury. If it was full of gold and silver, how much would it cost?

   Who knew that Bai Yitang nodded, "Yes, I stole the gold and silver in this place, and some were accumulated by my ancestors."

   The chief guard asked dully: "What about the money?"

   The stone cave is very clean now, and it looks empty at first glance.

   Bai Yitang pointed to dozens of boxes in the corner of the wall and said, "No, they're all there."

  The guards took a hard look, only to find a pile of boxes in the shadowy corner in the distance.

  The guards rushed up to open it, only to find that it was full of account books, dozens of boxes of account books!

Bai Yitang took out an account book from the outermost box, flipped it over, pointed at the account book, and said, "Nuo, this is the account book for the relief of Henan Prefecture when the Yellow River burst its banks five years ago. Every county, The number of people in township and village relief, the money and grain, cotton and linen, medicinal materials, etc. are all recorded one by one. I think the local county annals should be able to find the records even if there is no detailed account, and it is not difficult to verify."

"And it was only five years ago. The people who suffered the disaster were still there, so it's easy to approve." Bai Yitang threw the ledger into the hands of the head guard, picked up another copy, flipped through it, and threw it into his arms, "These are all The villages along the Yellow River where the relief was given are similar. I was still in Qiongzhou when the Yellow River burst its banks. When I received the news, I thought that it would be impossible to rely on the emperor for disaster relief. I couldn’t go back anyway, and my apprentice might not be able to go back in the future either. In the Central Plains, it is better to dispose of all the money left in the door, so I ordered someone to carry the money. Today, I will look at my original decision. It is really correct. Otherwise, the Yellow River will not be the only refugees who are running around. It's a disaster. If there is no uprising and a civil revolt, I'm afraid it won't stop."

   The head guard's face was ugly, and the faces of the guards were even more complicated, because they knew that Bai Yitang was right.

  In the first two years of the Yellow River’s **** burst, a large sum of money was allocated to repair it, but the **** was only repaired, and it collapsed as soon as the summer flood season came.

   At that time, the fourth prince was in charge of the project. After the collapse of the dike, the local officials did not report it to the court, but first notified the fourth prince, and the fourth prince came forward to suppress the memorial.

   If there were officials who risked their lives to visit Beijing, I'm afraid the court would have to wait until after the civil uprising to know the news.

The emperor favored the fourth prince. After the incident, he wanted to let the fourth prince forgive his crimes and allocated a large amount of disaster relief money to let him preside over the disaster relief. However, after the disaster relief food was delivered to the disaster area, it all turned into moldy food, and the quantity was still small. Nearly half of it is gone, and there are not a few pieces of silver left.

   At that time, the situation was on the verge of breaking out. The disaster victims had already assembled. The emperor had no choice but to ask the treasury to collect another sum of money for the prince to take with him to relieve the disaster.

   But at that time, everyone knew that the prince would only be afraid of death if he left. Those victims were so angry that they could not wait to tear up the officials and the royal family sent by the court, not to mention that the prince brought so little money for disaster relief...

   But I don’t know if it’s because the prince is lucky, or if there are so many kind-hearted people in the world. Wealthy businessmen, officials and people from all over the Chu region started to donate money and materials for the victims, and they were sent to the disaster area by some security guards.

  Because of the food and the resettlement, the emotions of the disaster victims gradually stabilized. After the prince arrived, he went to the disaster victims in person, which completely suppressed the unformed civil revolt.

  The prince also re-entered the court, and even pushed the grandson to the front, and started to build momentum for the grandson. After two years, the grandson could be ordered by the emperor to go out to Beijing to handle the case and thoroughly investigate the corruption case in Jiangnan.

  I didn't expect those people to be arranged by Bai Yitang.

   The captain of the guard froze all over, looking at him with fear and horror. Bai Yitang was far away in Qiongzhou and could instruct so many people to serve him, that secret force...

Thinking of His Majesty's advice before coming, the captain of the bodyguard suppressed his doubts again. His Majesty said that people like Bai Yitang should go along with their hair and cannot be forced. It's not good to be evil.

  The chief guard turned over the account book and found that the most recent account was actually the relief for the Qixian earthquake two years ago.

   Then there is a summary at the bottom, all the money that Lingtianmen handed over to them has been exhausted.

   The captain of the guard touched the part of the summary, sighed, and waved his hand: "Put the account book on the carriage."

   Whether these account books are true or false, and whether there is any balance, you can check them when you go back.

Because Lingtianmen's account book not only has expenses, but also income. By coincidence, the head of the guard looked over and found that the latest income was from Bai Yitang eighteen years ago, and several people who were stolen are still healthy. Kang, live a delicious life.

  The captain of the guard glanced at the stolen amount, smashed it, smashed his mouth, it seemed to be really greedy, otherwise, if you lost so much money, why didn't they report the crime?

   It seems that pulling this account book back up is another turmoil.

These account books are considered confidential now, but Gu Jingyun didn't realize it at all, so he just sat cross-legged on the mule cart and took a book to read, and even if he read it himself, he even showed it to his stupid apprentice, and taught him while he read it. .

For example, the stolen official is now in any position or has returned to his hometown. When he was stolen from any position, how much should he get a year's salary according to the position at that time, how much he should be honored, how much can he be embezzled in his position, etc. ...

  The chief guard wanted to stop him, but he was stunned after hearing it. It turns out that there are so many corrupt methods in this world. He has been a guard for more than ten years, and he can only accept some gifts and help to receive some filial piety.

The head guard was still like this, Zhao Ning and the guards were even more stunned, they almost rolled down the **** while walking, Bai Yitang also listened with relish, turned to Li Baolu and said, "Qinghe has the potential to be a corrupt official. Don't bother stealing others, just aim at him and steal."

  Gu Jingyun is not deaf, the corners of his mouth curled slightly when he heard the words, and he looked back and said softly to Baolu, "Our family's money will be handed over to you, you can steal whatever you want."

   "Okay, okay," Li Baolu's eyes sparkled, "don't worry, we won't be starving."

   "I believe this!"

  Bai Yitang rolled his eyes at the two of them and turned away.

   When the group returned to Lingtianmen, it was already dark, and the captain of the guard was quite unwilling. He crossed thousands of mountains and rivers and followed Bai Yitang all the way to Yazhou to get these account books?

   Don't have any other secrets for him to take back?

   Good heart!

   Gu Jingyun said to him, "I have something to ask of you."

  The captain of the guard immediately corrected his attitude, "Master Gu, just tell me, as long as I can do it..."

   "Of course your lord can do it," Gu Jingyun said with a slight smile, "I want your lord to help me bring some books back."

   The chief guard stayed for a while, why is it Yunshu again?

"what book?"

"Some of the books in Lingtianmen's collection, I'm very interesting to look through. I've already asked my wife, I can take some back to Beijing, but you know, we only have two carriages, and we have enough things, so it's impossible to pack any more books, so …”

   The captain of the guard nodded in disappointment, "No problem, just transporting the book..."
