Qin Long's home is located at the foot of Dajian Mountain, the name of the village is called the foot of Jianshan, it is a small mountain village with only seven or eight families, and the people living in the village are not the aborigines of Nanao County, and the three generations are all relocated from other places.

The foot of Jianshan is only more than a mile away from Jianshan Town, and the children in the village have to go to the school in Jianshan Town to go to school, but the villagers' household registration is in Dajianshan Township, which is separated by a mountain, and the villagers have to go over the big Jianshan Mountain to get a household registration or something, which is very troublesome, some people have long said that the foot of Jianshan Mountain should be assigned to Jianshan Town, but there has been no movement, it is said that Jianshan Town is unwilling to accept the seven or eight mountain people at the foot of Jianshan Mountain, and the fishermen are not fishermen.

The problems left over from history are not Qin Long's business, Qin Long strode into the village with his luggage on his back, and at this time, the people in the village were busy for their livelihoods, and there was no one to see at all.

Walking to the front of his yard and seeing a slender figure sitting in the yard chopping pigweed through the courtyard wall, Qin Long couldn't help but shout: "Qin Feng." ”

Qin Feng looked up and saw Qin Long, who was half of his body exposed outside the courtyard wall, threw down the kitchen knife and ran to the courtyard door, and cried out with a wow: "Brother, you're back, if you don't come back, I'm going to run away from home with my mother......"

Qin Long threw down his luggage and hugged Qin Feng, who opened the courtyard door and rushed out, frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

Qin Feng cried even more sadly, causing Qin's mother to also come out of the house, and the moment she saw her son, Qin's mother leaned against the door frame with a sigh of relief, but her restless heart suddenly settled down these days.

A family is carried on a man's shoulders, and now that the son has returned, the collapsed pillars of the family have risen again.

Qin Long patted Qin Feng's back vigorously, and said bluntly: "Don't cry, our old Qin family has no tears, with my brother here, the sky can't fall." ”

Qin Feng sobbed and lowered his head to pick up Qin Long's luggage and sighed, our old Qin family has no tears is the most common sentence on the lips of the dead father, but every time the father says this, he is basically beating Qin Long.

hugged my mother into the house, and the two of you told me a word, Qin Long knew that his father owed a lot of debts during his lifetime, adding up to more than 200,000 yuan, and his mother didn't know where his father spent all the money he borrowed.

Qin Feng looked at Qin Long with red eyes and asked cautiously, "Brother, our dad won't be gambling money, right?"

"No, it won't. Qin Long interrupted Qin Feng's speculation without hesitation, not to mention that Dad never gambled money, even if Dad really gambled and owed so many debts, people were already dead, and it was not their turn for these juniors to make irresponsible remarks.

Qin Long pondered for a moment and said, "Qin Feng, you call those creditors and tell them that if they want money, they should come to the house before six o'clock in the afternoon, and they will not wait for the expiration date." ”

Qin Ma and Qin Feng were startled, and the two of them grabbed one of Qin Long's arms, and Qin Ma said nervously: "Dalong, don't make a mistake." ”

Qin Long patted his mother's hand: "It is natural for the father and son to repay the debt, let them come and pay them back." ”

As he spoke, Qin Long took out his bank card from his wallet and handed it to Qin Feng and instructed: "You go to the town and take out all the money in the card, you know the password." ”

Kari is Qin Long's savings and shrinking retirement settlement fee in recent years, but it is far from enough to repay the debt owed by his father.

Qin Feng took the bank card with red eyes and left, she knew that Qin Long's decision was irrevocable, and it had been like this since she was a child.

Qin Long sat at the old elm dining table and took out all the money in his wallet, and took out the envelope that Pork Rongsai gave him from his pocket and took out the money inside, which was a little meaning that the two brothers gave him when they were leaving, but he didn't expect that there were 10,000 yuan, Qin Long didn't look at it on the road, but now he was really moved by this 10,000 yuan.

Good brother, this 10,000 yuan is really for my buddy now.

Qin's mother walked into the back room, and when she came out, she brought a wooden box, the wooden box was locked by a Pisces copper lock, and there was a wad of money on the lid of the wooden box, almost two or three thousand yuan, and a key was placed on the money, which was the kind of brass key in the elderly, and now you can only see such locks in antique shops.

Qin's mother put the wooden box and money in front of Qin Long, and said with red eyes: "The family's money is here, this box was left by your father, and I told you that it must be left for you, and no one is allowed to touch it." ”

Could it be that Dad has put all the valuable things in this box?

Qin Long guessed in his heart, reached out and picked up the pile of money under the key and handed it to his mother: "Mom, I can solve the money matter, you can keep the money for yourself." ”

Mother Qin sighed and didn't take the money: "You will be in charge of this family in the future, you decide how to spend the money, and I will cook for you." ”

After saying that, Qin's mother turned her head and went out, Qin Long shook his head, shook his head, put the money on the stack of money he had sorted out, picked up the key, and inserted it into the keyhole of the Pisces copper lock on the wooden box lock with some anticipation.

The wooden box was opened, and there was no valuable treasure that made Qin Long's eyes shine, and there was only a wooden box a few sizes smaller and a red plastic diary of workers, peasants and soldiers, looking at the cover picture of the diary, he was definitely dozens of years older than Qin Long.

The smaller wooden box was also locked by a small copper lock, Qin Long took out the diary and the small wooden box from the box, and found a smaller copper key, no need to guess to know that this key must have opened the copper lock on the small wooden box.

Dad collects this small wooden box so much, then the baby must be in this small wooden box.

What kind of treasure is it that makes it look like a matryoshka doll, and whoever opens the big wooden box will not open the small wooden box? Is it mysteriously useful?

Qin Long's behavior of slandering his father for the first time, even when he was beaten when he was young, he never questioned his father.

Full of anticipation, he used the small copper key to open the copper lock on the small wooden box, and Qin Long also became cautious when he lifted the lid of the box.

As a result, the lid of the box was lifted, and what appeared in front of Qin Long's eyes was a silk cloth full of handwriting, which was a letter to put it bluntly.

Qin Long's heart suddenly became cold.

This...... This is also surprising, isn't it? It's so tightly kept, it turns out to be a letter!

Qin Long picked up the silk cloth with a stomach full of resentment, only to find that there was a smaller wooden box under the silk cloth, but this wooden box was not locked, so he lay calmly in the middle of a ball of cotton wool.

Qin Long glanced at the wooden box a few times, his gaze turned back to the silk cloth in his hand, and he was stunned for a moment.

Most of the words on the silk cloth are vertically arranged with brush characters, and the writing is different from right to left, which looks very messy, but it can also be seen that this silk cloth has been some years old.

After looking at a few lines, Qin Long has a black line, this Nima is the message board of the old Qin family, and it is a message board that has been circulated for hundreds of years, this is simply against the sky.

Descendants of the descendants should remember to remember: the treasure in the bottle is obtained by the ancestors, passed to Yu has been raised for more than 200 years, this treasure is fed on gold and iron, sleepy, Yu Yu raised for 42 years only to see this treasure wake up once, put silver 74 taels for food, and then go to sleep overnight, Yu Jinsheng has no hope of seeing it wake up again, passed on to the eldest son Qin You. Shunzhi three years Qin Wenchang pen.

He was raised for thirty-one years by his father, and he was fortunate enough to wake up once, and he had twenty-two taels of silver and fifty taels of silver, and passed it on to his eldest son Qin Bian. Kangxi thirteenth year Qin You pen.

In the fifty-sixth year of Kangxi, the gold-devouring insect woke up, and he invested three taels of silver and forty-one pounds of copper, and he ate all of them on the dog's day, and quickly passed them on to his son, and Lao Tzu couldn't afford to raise them. In the fifty-sixth year of Kangxi, Qin Liang.

"Gold Devouring Worm?" Qin Long muttered, reaching out to pick up the small wooden box, this was the first time he had seen this title in the silk book, and he couldn't help but be a little curious, strange that what was placed in it could be a living creature, but Qin Long didn't dare to open the box rashly to check.

Then looking down, Qin Long's mouth became eighty thousand.

……

In the middle of the road, the gold-devouring insect woke up, threw a white iron eight catties into the ocean, and ate it in a quarter of an hour, so he quickly took it back into the bottle. Found a strange wonder of the gold-eating insects, where the gold-eating insects are located, the insects are extinct within a radius of 100 meters, and the magic of preventing rats and mosquitoes is endless, hehe, haha. Qin Wang in the seventh year of the Republic of China.

Don't make trouble, grandpa, what is the use of this broken thing except to prevent rats and mosquitoes? Why do you want to keep it? Anyway, I don't have gold or silver, the commune is engaged in a big steel smelting, I stole some iron slag back, it loves to eat or not, starving it is better than starving me to death. Qin Xiangyang on February 21, 1960.

Qin Long raised his eyebrows, Qin Xiangyang, isn't this his grandfather's name, I didn't expect the old man to have such a funny side, hehe.

Looking down further, there are more writings, and it turned out to be pen characters, Qin Long looked at the signature first, and it was indeed his father's name.

In recent years, the gold eater is very active, wake up and sleep less, I estimate that it may be that the gold eater is mature or has undergone a mutation, I don't know very well, when feeding, I found that the gold eater is not very interested in copper, iron, aluminum, lead and other metals, like to eat silver and gold, now the price of silver is relatively cheap, I have fed it more than 200 catties of silver, occasionally feed some gold.

There is more silver color on the wings of the gold devouring insect, and there is no other change, but it feels that the gold devouring insect's food is large, and a silver bracelet is put in it for a few minutes and it is gone.

Qin Long instantly understood why his father owed so many foreign debts, more than two hundred catties of silver were worth at least hundreds of thousands, and there was also gold that was occasionally fed, one gram was a few hundred yuan.

It turned out that all the money my father borrowed was eaten by this gold-eating worm hidden in the small wooden box.

Paralyzed, I want to see what you are, if you don't have any earth-shattering skills, Lao Tzu will stumble on you, you loser.
