Chapter 70: Keep digging

"Xiong Zhao, since you are now my housekeeper, you can settle down, I won't kill you, but if you make some small moves behind my back, then don't blame me for being ruthless, in fact, with all the evil deeds you have done, it is not too much to die a hundred times. ”

Xiong Zhao was sweating profusely, from last night to tonight, for two whole days, he didn't even close his eyelids, the wound on his hand was faintly painful, at this moment he was cold all over his body, thinking that he would be tortured by this person like this, I am afraid that his old life will be reimbursed in a few days.

"The old slave doesn't dare, the old slave is under the point of the fairy, has been reformed, and the future will be the head of the owner, well, it's late, the old slave is weak, I don't know if the owner can be gracious, let the old slave go back to the room to rest. ”

Xiong Chen leaned forward slightly, and a sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "It turns out that Xiong Zhao, you kid will also feel tired, and it feels good to be tired." ”

Xiong Zhao said with a sad face: "It's not good, it's not good, it's really not good, if you continue to work hard like this, the old slave ...... I really can't stand it, the owner of the village is wise, since he has given a surname and rewarded an errand, then please treat the old slave well, and the old slave will do his best to host the village. ”

Xiong Chen nodded, waved his big hand, and said: "Okay, you go back, yes, you said that your ancestors left a last word, and there are treasures in the back mountain, what is the last word." ”

Xiong Zhao took a few breaths, sat down on the ground, and said, "Please forgive the owner, the old slave is too tired, and let me sit down and talk slowly." ”

Xiong Chen sneered: "Xiong Zhao, your past days were too comfortable, and you can't stand the slightest bit of suffering, no wonder the family has been digging up the mountain for so long, and what is dug out is still soil, hehe." ”

Xiong Zhao kneaded his numb legs and feet, hung his head and said, "Yes, yes, the owner of the village has learned the right lesson." ”

He gasped for a while, and then said in a hoarse voice: "These last words have been passed down from generation to generation, my father said to me on his deathbed, my ancestor was originally just a vagabond, he passed by the green mountain one day, spent the night at the foot of the mountain, and had a dream at night, and dreamed that the whole green mountain was shining, and the light reflected the whole sky into one...... Blue ......"

Xiong Chen's expression was peculiar and interrupted Xiong Zhao's words: "It's a dark blue." Aren't you digging for gold? How can gold be blue? ”

Xiong Zhao looked embarrassed, and said: "My father did say so, maybe he is already terminally ill and confused. ”

Xiong Chen was noncommittal, and said in a low voice: "Go on." ”

"Yes, my ancestor woke up from a dream, and thought that this was the guidance given to him by the gods, so he went up to the mountain to open up the wasteland, and from then on he lived on the mountain, and told his three sons about the dream, and told him to keep on this green mountain, and to dig out the treasure as soon as he had the opportunity. After hundreds of years of breeding and operation, in my grandfather's generation, he finally gained a little reputation in Hanguo and founded this Jiudao Villa. ”

"And then. ”

"And then... Then my grandfather remembered the last words of the ancestors, at that time, Jiudao Villa already had a certain foundation, enough financial resources to excavate the treasure, but we did not know the specific location of the treasure, we could only look for the most famous feng shui master at that time to investigate, the master made a few days of law, designated a location in the back mountain, and ordered to dig down, no matter how many years, do not stop digging, the treasure will naturally appear. ”

"Since that day, your family has begun to buy a large number of children from poor families in Han, and store them up as tools for digging, isn't it? ”

"Oh...... This...... Yes, but we are all fair deals, and those slaves are all bought for real money, although I don't treat them very well, but they are not very bad, and of course some of my men are bullying...... Cause some resentment. That...... Probably yes. This is all due to the dereliction of duty of the old slave. ”

Xiong Chen's eyes gradually became stricter, he looked Xiong Zhao up and down, left and right, although Xiong Zhao hung his head, he still felt two lightning-like rays of light swimming back and forth on his body, and he couldn't help but tremble all over his body.

"The owner...... What the old slave said was the truth, not half a lie. ”

"What is the relationship between Emperor Han and you. ”

Xiong Zhao's whole body suddenly stiffened, and he stammered: "This ...... It's not ......."

"Not really. You Jiudao Villa can do whatever you want in the Han Kingdom, and the Emperor Han, as the Son of Heaven, has never turned a blind eye, is there no trace of secrecy in this. ”

"This ......"

"Say,"

Xiong Zhao babbled for a while, and finally sighed in the sky, and said: "Since the owner of the village asked, there must be a plan in his heart, or not, our family has been working hard for many years, and in the end it is still a bamboo basket to draw water, since you are the envoy of the fairy, the treasure of the back mountain will be handed over to the owner of the village in the future, as long as the owner promises the old man a word, the old man will tell all the secrets." ”

Xiong Chen seemed to hear a big joke that slipped the world, and laughed: "Xiong Zhao, you are old and confused, what qualifications do you have to negotiate with me now." This is the truth, you can go back to sleep with peace of mind after you say it, if you don't say it, I will stab you with a knife, what do you think? ”

Xiong Zhao groaned, the situation of Jiudao Villa in the past two years must have been passed through the mouths of the fleeing diners, but there has been no movement in the court, could it be... Emperor Han, like himself, also met that fairy.

"Xiong Zhao, don't you say it. I don't have much patience, one or two......"

Xiong Zhao hurriedly climbed a few steps and said: "The owner of the village is angry, the owner of the village is angry, the old slave is just curious, and wants to ask the owner of the village to let the old slave take a few glances after the treasure is dug out, so that he can know what it is, and let the old slave have an explanation when he goes to see the ancestors a hundred years later." ”

Xiong Chen smiled faintly: "I heard that the baby was asked by the fairy, I don't dare to take a look, you dare." You haven't answered my words, what does Emperor Han have to do with you? ”

Xiong Zhao put his heart sideways, and said: "Emperor Han is the cousin of the old slave, after the ancestors gained a firm foothold on the green mountain, they made some arrangements for the three adult sons, the eldest son left the family to go down the mountain, and took the season of the mountain as the surname, changed it to the surname Xia, and then the wind and clouds met and achieved the emperor's hegemony, which made my ancestors believe that there is a treasure hidden on the green mountain, which can bless the descendants to enjoy the wealth forever, so he left a last word, and the descendants must find this treasure that can dye the sky blue. ”

Xiong Chen snorted and said, "Three sons, where is the other son?" ”

Xiong Zhao took a breath of talk and said: "The second son of the ancestor went down the mountain in winter, changed his surname to Dong, this ancestor has a rebellious personality, and loves to do it with the ancestor since he was a child, after he went down the mountain, he did not contact the family and Xia Zushang, and lost the news after a few years, and later the Xia family and the Zhao family sent a large number of people to find, but they have not been found, I am afraid that they have died in the troubled times." ”

Xiong Chen said: "Buying and selling slaves and digging up the back mountain is also what the two of you did after discussion." β€œ

"It is the last generation of Emperor Han who once announced that my father was in the palace, saying that the time was ripe for excavation, so my father began to gather manpower and excavate at a fixed point, in order to cover the eyes and ears of the world, he declared that there were gold mines hidden in the green mountains. ”

Xiong Chen was silent, and suddenly said, "Why does that fairy have to dig up treasures for your family?" ”

"Two years ago, cough cough, that is, the old slave has no eyes, the night after offending the owner, a fairy came to the village, first taught the old slave a lesson, and then ordered three things, one of which is ------ to my family to go up the mountain to dig the baby, the fairy said, the treasure buried in the back mountain is hers, she just wants to borrow my hand to get it back。。。。。。 The fairy also said, that baby, others can't dig it, it must be the old slave's family to go up the mountain to dig it, so that it can be dug up, the owner of the village。。。。。 These are the original words of the fairy, and the old slave has not increased or decreased. ”

Xiong Chen's eyes flashed, baby. The cave in the back mountain, which is said to contain gold, is thousands of feet deep, and it is full of solid mud layers and stones of different sizes, and he has been working there for several years, and he has not seen half a trace of the treasure.

Suddenly, Xiong Chen thought about how big this back mountain was. Look at this cave, he has been digging for decades, although he spends most of his time transporting mud at the edge of the cave entrance, but listening to the words of the slaves digging inside, it is eerie and terrifying, and there is no bottom in sight.

"Since that treasure can only be dug in your hands, but you have been digging for more than two years, and you still haven't found anything, this can only show a problem, you are lazy, isn't it. ”

Xiong Zhao's face changed again and again, knowing that he couldn't hide Xiong Chen's sharp eyes, so he simply acquiesced.

Xiong Chen snorted and said coldly: "The fairy is merciful, allow you to be lazy, but I am hard-hearted, Xiong Zhao, I will give you half a year, you must dig up the treasure in the fairy's mouth, otherwise, the life of your whole family will be buried on the spot by the slaves who died under your hands in the past, you know no." ”

Xiong Zhao said in a trembling voice: "But...... What is the treasure in the fairy's mouth, the old slave doesn't know, how to dig this called the old slave. ”

Xiong Chen straightened his face and slapped his hand on the coffee table: "How to dig, use a shovel, use a hoe, use your hands, dig slowly, this back mountain has long been hollowed out by you, the baby in the mouth of the fairy must appear soon, as long as you are not lazy, you will start digging every day when the rooster crows, and stop work until it is dark, how can you not dig." In this way, I will give you three days to recuperate, and after three days, you will take your family to garrison the cave, eat and drink all the Sala on the mountain, so that the speed of digging will be much faster, and I will go up the mountain every three days to inspect it, don't be lazy,"
