The next day, Zhong Yi woke up from his sleep, walked out of the thatched hut, and saw that Ning Xue was busy, he was surprised for a while, and stepped forward to ask.

"Need help?"

Ning Xue glanced at Zhong Yi, with a surprise on her face, shook her head and said.

"No need. ”

After that, Ning Xue ignored Zhong Yi and got busy by herself.

Zhong Yi looked at Ning Xue's back, smiled bitterly, casually scooped a little water in the basin, washed his face briefly, and began to think about how to get the news of Tianao Mountain from Ning Xue's mouth.

"Come over and eat. ”

Ning Xue was a little impatient, if it weren't for her grandfather Ning Zhong wanting to let Zhong Yi in for dinner, she wouldn't want to pay attention to Zhong Yi.

Zhong Yi immediately walked into the house.

Ning Xue was reluctant to prepare dishes and chopsticks for Zhong Yi.

Ning Zhong looked at Zhong Yi with a smile on his face and asked.

"Little friend, did you sleep well last night?"

Zhong Yi smiled slightly and said.

"Grandpa, it's not bad, the thatch is warm. ”

Ning Zhong nodded and began to eat.

Not long after, Ning Xue had dinner and walked directly to the outside of the room, looking like she was about to go out.

Zhong Yi hurriedly took two mouthfuls of rice, put down the rice bowl, rushed outside, and said.

"Grandpa, I'm full. ”

Ning Zhong looked at Zhong Yi's distant figure with a smile on his face.

Zhong Yi quickly caught up with Ning Xue's footsteps, and he went straight to the point and said.

"That's... Xiaoxue, you take me to a place to play, how about I give you money?"

Ning Xue's eyes lit up, but she remembered that she still had money, so she refused without hesitation and said.

"No, you should keep the money for yourself. ”

After speaking, Ning Xue's pace couldn't help but speed up a lot.

Zhong Yi smiled bitterly, hurriedly caught up with Ning Xue's footsteps, and directly promised benefits.

"I'll give you 10,000 yuan!"

At this time, Ning Xue's pace slowed down a lot, it was very difficult for her to earn 10,000 yuan, even if she got Zhong Yi's tens of millions last night, but there was a time when she ran out.

Zhong Yi was overjoyed in his heart and hurriedly urged.

"If not, I'll go find someone else. ”

Ning Xue suddenly stopped, looked at Zhong Yi, her eyes were full of little stars, and said in a loud voice.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Zhong Yi felt proud in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face and said.

"If you take me to visit Tianao Mountain once, I will give you 10,000 yuan. ”

The little star in Ning Xue's eyes suddenly dissipated, and she directly turned her head and walked forward, throwing down two words.

"No way!"

Zhong Yi's face changed, what is going on, how can he talk about Tianao Mountain, he directly refused, and hurriedly followed Ning Xue's footsteps and asked.

"Xiaoxue, didn't you just agree, why do you regret it now?"

Ning Xue ignored Zhong Yi, she didn't dare to go to that place even if she died, since the last time she almost died in it because of curiosity, she really talked about it, and she could hide as far as she could.

At this moment, Zhong Yi was anxious, and the thought in his mind turned and said.

"Xiaoxue, you tell me the reason, and I'll give you 10,000 yuan. ”

Ning Xue's speed began to slow down again, she couldn't resist the temptation of money anymore, and she kept struggling in her heart, thinking that there was no problem in telling Zhong Yi.

Zhong Yi saw that the fish was about to be baited, so he hurriedly added chips and said.

"The price is 20,000!"

A little star appeared in Ning Xue's eyes again, and at the same time she stretched out her hand to Zhong Yi to signal, the meaning was very obvious.

Zhong Yi smiled bitterly, but fortunately he took out his backpack and handed over all the cash on his body to Ning Xue, and said.

"Say, why don't you take me to Tianao Mountain?"

Ning Xue grabbed the red and bright banknotes, began to count them, and said.

"It's so dangerous, I almost died there last time and can't go again. ”

Zhong Yi's pupils shrank, and he remembered the man-swallowing incident mentioned in the land travelogue, the author didn't dare to explore, but Ning Xue could actually come out of it, and hurriedly asked.

"And how did you get out?"

Ning Xue was completely immersed in the world of money, so she naturally replied with one answer.

"I was rescued by my grandfather, it was so dangerous at the time, everyone else died. ”

Zhong Yi's face changed, it was so dangerous, and Ning Zhong was so strong that he could rescue Ning Xue.

Just as Zhong Yi wanted to continue asking, Ning Xue had already counted the money and strode directly towards the outside of the mountain, leaving Zhong Yi alone.

Zhong Yi wanted to catch up and ask, but Ning Xue didn't open his mouth anymore, which made him very helpless, he was trying to use money moves, but there was no penny on his body, and there was no store in front of the village here, where to find cash, it was hard for him now.

Looking at the back of Ning Xue leaving, Zhong Yi finally chose to go back to Ning Zhong, he hoped that Ning Zhong could tell him the answer, but he didn't know what Ning Zhong liked, which made him feel very embarrassed.

Back at Ning Xue's home, Zhong Yi kept pacing in the courtyard, thinking about how to talk to Ning Zhong, but he couldn't find a way, I believe that Ning Zhong is not like Ning Xue, he can do it with money, but now he has no money, which is really distressing.

At this time, Ning Zhong's voice came from inside the room.

"Little friend, what are you doing outside the room, come in and sit down. ”

Zhong Yi suddenly stopped, hesitated for a while, and strode towards the door, the door was not locked, and he easily entered.

Ning Zhong sat on the chair, as if waiting for Zhong Yi.

Zhong Yi sat on the chair, silent, he kept talking to Ning Zhong.

"Tell me, why do you want to go to Tianao Mountain?"

Ning Zhong's expression froze, and he cut directly to the topic, he didn't believe Zhong Yi's nonsense, he was curious about what others said.

Zhong Yi's face sank, he felt a pressure directly on him, making it difficult for him to move easily, he immediately wanted to struggle, but as if he was being pressed hard, it was difficult to move at all.

Only then did Zhong Yi react, Ning Zhong was the one who could rescue Ning Xue from Tianao Mountain, and he couldn't deal with it at all, so he had to explain honestly and said.

"I'm here to look for treasure. ”

Ning Zhong's eyes flashed with joy, there are indeed treasures on Tianao, but those things are for descendants, could it be that this young man is his descendant, and hurriedly asked.

"What treasure? Where did you find out?"

This made Zhong Yi hesitate for a while, he knew that he couldn't tell the secret of the jade pendant, but now that he was trapped by Ning Zhong, it was impossible not to answer.

Ning Zhong waited silently, and did not make a threat, or other actions.

But in Zhong Yi's opinion, this is already the biggest threat, a tiger is sitting next to you, and you can't move yet, there are no actions or words, which is more threatening than this.

In the end, Zhong Yi still chose to tell the secret.

"I knew it from a piece of jade. ”
