Silver, several carts of silver.
Lv Zhuangyuan knew what heavy things were being transported on those carriages when he saw the deep wheel marks, but he never expected them to be silver!
"How much silver is this? If I had a little bit of it, I could open several theaters, right?"
Just as Lv Zhuangyuan was staring in amazement, the curtain that was blown by the wind fell down.
The nuns obviously noticed the strange behavior of the people around them, but they didn't care and continued to sit on the ground eating like big weights.
"Don't look, eat, finish quickly, and let's go. With so much silver, something bad might happen."
The two carriages were surrounded in a semicircle, and the Lv family troupe continued to eat.
Of course, Zhao Wu, as a distinguished guest, was not treated poorly, with plenty of white steamed buns and duck eggs.
Even if Zhao Wu said he didn't want it, it wouldn't work.
While they were eating, the stench gradually became stronger.
A relatively thin nun came to their side somehow, drooling at the salty duck eggs in Zhao Wu's hand.
"How much for your eggs?"
"Nuns can't eat them..." Lv Xiucai's words were cut off by his father's cigarette stick.
"What kind of talk is that? It's just a few eggs. Take them."
Lv Zhuangyuan reached into the jar and took out two salty duck eggs to hand over.
The nun glanced at her companion next to the carriage, grabbed a duck egg, and didn't bother to remove the shell before putting it in her mouth and chewing.
"I'll pay for it." The smelly copper coins were thrown onto the carriage.
Feeling the greasy salted egg yolk burst in her mouth, the fat nun squinted her eyes in enjoyment.
With such a big appetite, Lv Zhuangyuan's two duck eggs couldn't last long. She directly reached into the jar of salted duck eggs and ate them one by one like grapes.
Zhao Wu, who was watching, had only one question in his mind, "Isn't this nun's way of eating too salty?"
"Da da da da da~" The sound of galloping horses suddenly rang out like a storm. Everyone looked over and saw cavalry appearing at the end of the road in the distance!
"The soldiers are here! Run!!"
Someone shouted, and other travelers stood up one after another, carrying their luggage and rushing into the surrounding woods.
Of course, Lv Zhuangyuan also wanted to run, but he was in a carriage.
When the cavalry came in front of them, there were only the Lv family troupe and those nuns left.
Lv Zhuangyuan gritted his teeth and then gave Zhao Wu a smile that made him feel confused, supporting him and pushing forward.
"Zhao Gongzi, I saw it a long time ago. You have such a powerful senior brother, and he must have the same supernatural powers. Don't hide it now."
"I...I'm not...I..."
Before he could explain anything, the cavalry in black armor rushed over, and Zhao Wu, who was about to speak, ate a mouthful of sand.Amidst the sound of horse hooves, there were also sounds of weapons clashing. These were not ordinary cavalry, but a group of elite soldiers. Zhao Wu caught a glimpse of the military flag between the cavalry and wrote down the four characters on it.
"Stop!" A low thunderous voice made everyone tremble.
Immediately, this group of cavalry surprisingly stopped at a very unexpected speed. They stood in a black row like a black wall, and white steam burst out from their horses' nostrils.
Zhao Wu widened his eyes in surprise as he saw a soldier with four machetes on his back jump off his horse and land in front of the nuns over ten meters away, leaving two large pits on the ground.
"Everyone from An Ci Temple, the border is in danger! The camp urgently needs military funds, and we have requisitioned this silver. I will issue a promissory note and you can take it to the Ministry of Revenue to withdraw the money."
Others also heard this, including Lv Xiucai. "Dad, what's going on? Why is there a war here too?"
"My ancestors! Will you die if you don't speak?" Lv Zhuangyuan covered his son's mouth and curled up behind the carriage as much as possible, afraid of arousing the interest of these big-headed soldiers.
You Zixiong completely ignored the actors next to him and focused all his attention on the fat nuns in front of him. When he saw that the nuns were still sitting there, eating with big mouths and completely ignoring his words, You Zixiong's eyebrows gradually frowned.
"Didn't you hear what I said?!" After speaking, he grabbed the black tassel handle of the sword at his waist with his right hand.
In an instant, the air was filled with a murderous aura, as if in this moment, it had become the center of a battlefield of life and death. The breath infected the surrounding cavalry, and their bodies and eyes gradually became bloodshot, and their bodies became restless, even their horses lifted their hooves.
"No, we're too lazy to go so far." Several nuns spoke at the same time.
"If you have the ability, then go ahead. Think carefully before you act."
This refusal made the atmosphere tense to the highest point. Some of the cavalry had even started to bend their bows. Just when Lv Zhuangyuan was about to ride away with the others to escape, the murderous aura disappeared instantly.
You Zixiong, with a solemn expression, grabbed his black tassel long sword at his waist and threw it over.
"This is my sword, You Zixiong's sword! Take the sword and go to the Ministry of Revenue to collect the money! It will only increase, not decrease!"
As he watched the black-clad nuns surround him with greed in their eyes, touching his weapons with their dirty fat hands, the fire in You Zixiong's heart was burning.
But he also understood that the situation in the entire Siqi country was unstable, and he could not easily make enemies, especially with these nuns in front of him.
"Black Yue Cavalry, obey orders! Distribute the silver evenly! One cavalry carries one share! Military orders are like a mountain! We must arrive in Kun City in three days!"
"Understood!"
"Understood!"
"Understood!"
All the cavalry dismounted and rushed to the carriage to orderly move the silver at the fastest speed.As the sound of horse hooves gradually faded away, Lv Zhuangyuan and the others suddenly woke up from a dream, gasping for breath, feeling like they had just been washed in water.

"Dad, I...I wet my pants."
"Are you embarrassed or not? Stop licking your face! Hurry up and change your pants!"
Although he was very confident when talking about his own son, Lv Zhuangyuan's legs were also weak at this moment. He couldn't help but feel scared.
"Oh dear, it looks like we're in trouble. No, this area is too dangerous. I have to find that little Taoist priest as soon as possible and follow him to leave this place."
