Chapter 028: Gold in Hand
Because Jishan had been staying in the captain's room, Baizhu waited for a long time and didn't have a chance to enter, so he had to leave first.
When he returned to Bao Zhilin, he found that the light in Aunt Thirteen's room was still on.
His heart suddenly warmed, and he came to the door of Aunt Thirteen and knocked lightly, saying, "Aunt Thirteen, I'm back, you can rest." β
"Liang Kuan!"
Before he could finish speaking, he heard footsteps inside, and the door of the back room was quickly opened, revealing a pair of beautiful eyes full of worry.
Looking at the unconcealable tiredness on Aunt Thirteen's beautiful face, Bai Zhu's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but relax his arm, hugged her in his arms, and murmured, "Aunt Thirteen, I'm worried about you." β
The thirteenth aunt was originally so ashamed of Baizhu's sudden intimate action that she didn't dare to move, but after hearing this sentence, the grievances in her heart suddenly couldn't bear it anymore, and two lines of tears flowed down.
"I'm sorry. β
Baizhu's palm patted on Aunt Thirteen's soft back, and said guiltily.
"I'm fine, you don't have to say I'm sorry. β
The thirteenth aunt raised her head, and her dark eyes were as clear as crystal: "I'm just worried about you...... I'm afraid something will happen to you. β
The thirteenth aunt is so sensible, which makes Baizhu feel even more guilty.
As if she understood the guilt in Baizhu's heart, Aunt Thirteen suddenly smiled, like a pear blossom with rain: "Really, I know that you have a lot of responsibilities and many things to do...... I know, you don't have to worry about me. β
"Aunt Thirteen. β
Bai Shu hugged Aunt Thirteen's arm and couldn't help but tighten a little.
"Liang Kuan, don't call me Aunt Thirteen......"
Burying her head in Baizhu's arms, Aunt Thirteen said like a dream: "Call my name." β
"Shaoyun. β
Baizhu called softly.
"Hmm. β
The first time she heard her name come out of Baizhu's mouth, Aunt Thirteen's heart seemed to melt, and all her previous worries disappeared, leaving only full of sweetness.
β¦β¦
The next night, Baizhu changed into his night clothes again.
"Be careful in everything, come back early, I'll wait for you. β
The thirteenth aunt is as tender as water.
"Well, wait for me. β
Baizhu nodded and left Bao Zhilin.
Coming to Jishan's ship again, Baizhu found that today's guards were even looser than yesterday's.
When Baizhu saw the pitch-black captain's room, it was suddenly realized.
"No wonder almost none of those soldiers are standing guard seriously, it turns out that Jishan did not return to the ship tonight. β
Bai Shu secretly rejoiced in his heart: "This is convenient for me to act." β
Thinking of the box of gold in Jishan's room, Baizhu gently pushed open the window and jumped in.
"I remember that Jishan seemed to hide the gold in a chest. β
Just under the moonlight, Bai Zhu took a look in Jishan's room and noticed a suitcase placed next to his desk.
"It's still locked?"
Baizhu shook his head and chuckled, took out the flying sword and swiped it gently, and the lock suddenly fell.
When he opened the lid of the box and saw the scene inside the suitcase, Baizhu's eyes couldn't help but squint slightlyβhe saw that the box was neatly filled with gold bars!
"I really don't know how much opium this Jishan smuggled and let him accumulate so much gold. β
Baizhu scolded in his heart.
"But it's good that this gold has cheapened me for nothing. β
Baizhu re-closed the suitcase, intending to take it with him when he left.
After that, he began to rummage around the room to see if there was anything else of value.
Soon, Baizhu found a delicate revolver in the desk drawer, along with more than a dozen bullets.
"That's a good thing. β
Atractylodes naturally smiled.
After searching the house again and finding nothing of particular value, Baizhu prepared to leave.
"Huh, so heavy!"
He was about to leave with the chest of gold when he suddenly realized that the weight of the suitcase was a little more than he expected.
"What is the density of gold, and how can it be so heavy?"
Looking at the small suitcase, Baizhu scratched his head.
According to his estimates, the box of gold must have weighed about three hundred kilograms, equivalent to the weight of five adults.
That is, his strength has risen sharply recently, otherwise he wouldn't even be able to lift this suitcase.
"Forget it, let's take it a few more times. β
Baizhu had no choice but to take out some of the gold bars first.
Jumping off the boat, Bai Zhu originally wanted to take the gold back to Bao Zhilin, but when he thought that if he returned to Bao Zhi Lin, he would not have enough time to come back and forth.
"Anyway, this gold is not afraid of spoilage, so it is better to bury it nearby. β
Coming to a nearby dense forest, after Baizhu remembered the location, he dug a hole with a flying sword and buried the gold.
After going back and forth like this several times, Baizhu finally buried all the gold in this suitcase.
"Alright, you're done. β
Baizhu stepped on the ground with his feet, and when he saw that it was not early, he rushed to Bao Zhilin.
β¦β¦
When he came to the back door of Bao Zhilin, Bai Zhu was just about to enter, when he suddenly found an old man in ragged clothes lying on the side of the door.
Baizhu walked quickly to the old man, and when he saw the old man's almost skinny body, his brow furrowed.
After reaching out to check the old man's pulse, the expression on his face was even more solemn - judging from the old man's pulse, he had reached the time when he ran out of oil and dried up!
"Old man, old man!"
Baizhu gently patted the other party's cheek and called.
"Save ...... Help us. β
As if hearing the call of Baizhu, the old man finally came to his senses.
"Don't worry, old man, I'm here. β
Baizhu hurriedly said: "You insist, I'll carry you in." β
As he spoke, Baizhu carried the old man on his back and entered Bao Zhilin.
The thirteenth aunt, who had been waiting for Baizhu, was shocked to see Baizhu come in with an old man on her back.
"Liang Kuan, who is he?"
Aunt Thirteen asked while helping Baizhu to help the old man lie down on the hospital bed.
"I don't know,"
Baizhu explained, "When I came back just now, I saw him lying at the back door, so I brought him back. β
At this moment, the old man suddenly let out a painful moan as if he was in a nightmare: "No...... Don't hit me, no, don't!"
"Old man, don't worry, no one is beating you here. β
Seeing this, the thirteenth aunt was quickly relieved.
"Liang Kuan, what kind of disease does the old man have?"
Aunt Thirteen asked.
"He doesn't look like he's sick. β
Baizhu suddenly remembered that there seemed to be such a number one person in the movie, so he said: "It's more like being abused." β
"Being abused?"
Looking at the old man's skinny appearance, Aunt Thirteen said angrily: "Who the hell is so unsympathetic!"
Bai Shu was also sympathetic when he looked at the old man's appearance of moaning quietly, "It's a pity that my medical skills are too much worse than Master's, otherwise I should be able to ...... Hey, wait, although my medical skills are not good, I still have internal qi. β
Baizhu suddenly thought of the miniature cyclone in his body that had become the size of a soybean.
Although it is said that the cultivation of the inner qi realm has little effect on the improvement of his strength, the "Mountains and Rivers Breathing Diagram" is a cultivation method after all, and the nourishment of the body is incomparable to martial arts in any way.
The reason why he was able to stay vigil for ten consecutive nights without resting and waiting for the attack of the Shahe Gang was because of the effect of these internal qi.
Thinking of this, he sat next to the old man and pretended to feel the pulse, but in fact, he put his right hand on the Neiguan acupoint at the old man's wrist.
