"I want to ask, how come your wife, who rarely goes out to burn incense once a year, has to be taken up the mountain by our people?"

"This Peak Master knows that you all worry about my personal affairs all day long. Brothers, you are doing this for my own good. I won't blame you for anything."

Qingfeng Li said this, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"But, where did this news come from? Big Dog doesn't have the brains to do it!"

Shen Gonghou's expression straightened up and he quickly bowed and clasped his fists.

"Peak Master! The Big Dog Hall Master's target that day was actually the incense money from those bald donkeys in Daming Temple!"

Seeing the inquiring look from his own peak master.

Shen Gonghou continued,

"It was Kang Wuwei, the deputy hall master of the First Hall, who suggested that we find someone to serve you personally. That's why he changed his goal."

Qingfeng Li frowned slightly.

Shen Gong Monkey said hurriedly,

"Peak Master, Deputy Hall Master Kang has passed the study and ideological assessment! His loyalty to you is absolutely unquestionable!"

Qingfeng Li nodded slightly.

It may be hard to say about the loyalty of ordinary members, but the one who can become the leader of a hall,

After being transformed by Xiao Ai, he is not only absolutely loyal, but also has a firm belief in his heart.

So Kang Wuwei must not be a spy from that faction.

Seeing that Shen Gonghou still had something to say, he looked at him and said,

"Go on!"

Shen Gonghou is a little bit coquettish and abuses the dog.

"I have also conducted a thorough investigation of Deputy Hall Master Kang and have not found any problems."

"However, when discussing this with Deputy Hall Master Kang, he said that he had originally intended to borrow a batch of treasures from Daming Temple that day."

"But when the action was taken, the abbot of Daming Temple directly revealed the news that the lady was in the temple and revealed her identity."

"That's why Deputy Hall Master Kang decided to invite his wife up the mountain. After all, the daughter of the Salt Inspector is worth far more than the wealth of a temple."

Qingfeng Li nodded slightly and sneered.

"Haha, is this the Buddhist who believes in saving all living beings? He's really bringing shame to his ancestors!"

Taking a deep breath,

"Go on! Big Dog has no brains, and neither does Kang Wuwei? You won't bring back all the money from Daming Temple?"

"A bunch of old men, what are they doing with those weapons?"

When Qingfeng Li was speaking, Monkey Shen looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

After Li Qingfeng asked him to speak, he said cautiously,

"Peak Master, um, the money has also been brought back!"

"What?" Qingfeng Li suddenly looked up at Shen Gonghou.

Shen Gonghou nodded and said,

"Yes, Peak Master. I've checked. Besides bringing back the lady, Wulong Hall also received three thousand taels of gold and twenty-six thousand taels of silver. According to the rules, seventy percent of this has gone into the public treasury, and the remaining thirty percent has been distributed as rewards!"

"Then, Deputy Hall Master Kang was worried that Hall Master Zhao would disagree, so he pretended to be looking for Madam Yafeng for you and brought her back."

"You will know everything that happens after we go up the mountain!"

Li Qingfeng looked embarrassed, and his old face turned slightly red.

Yes, that day Zhao Dagou came back excitedly with his men, saying that they had brought him a wife.

Li Qingfeng kicked Zhao Dagou twice and ordered him to arrange the people according to the usual practice.

However, after learning of Lin Daiyu's identity, he had someone reject the ransom offered by Lin Ruhai at the foot of the mountain and left Lin Daiyu on the mountain.

But soon, his expression became serious.

His brow furrowed, his fingers rhythmically tapping the armrests of the chair.

"Haha, this is getting more and more interesting!"

Then he looked at Shen Gong Monkey and asked,

"Have you ever investigated why that bald abbot leaked the information about the pilgrims?"

Shen Gonghou's eyes were slightly evasive, and he knelt on one knee to apologize.

"Peak Master, I failed in my duty. When I led my men to investigate Daming Temple the next day, it was already deserted!"

Qingfeng Li raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"It seems like you have a guilty conscience, right?"

According to the information given by Shen Gonghou,

After paying out all the money in the temple, the people of Daming Temple

Logically speaking, there is no need to disclose the information of pilgrims, otherwise who would go there to burn incense in the future?
