Red Lotus Sect Second Protector Xin Baichuan shouted again, and seeing that there was still no movement in Zhuangzi, he raised his hand and said lightly: "Crash away!"

Five or six strong men carried a huge trunk and were about to bang on the door, but when they were only seven or eight steps, the gate of Zhuangzi opened at this time. The door was not closed in time, and all of them rushed to the ground at once, and the thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy who opened the door was terrified.

The people who fell to the ground were helped up, and they all cursed. Xin Baichuan looked into the door, the lights inside were dim, and several courtyards could be faintly seen from the shadows of the overlapping trees. He smiled slightly, and said to the person next to him: "The owner of this chapter is an elegant person, so it is better to place a Zhuangzi in the deep mountains and old forests, and listen to the wind and watch the moon." ”

Next to him was Zhu Youliang, the four protectors of the Red Lotus Sect. This turned out to be a pig killer and couldn't read big characters, but he made great contributions in this Jiangling incident and was recently named the protector of the law. He is a native of Gangneung, and he is very familiar with how many family backgrounds Zhang Ji has. Holding a big knife at the moment, he smiled and echoed: "It's good to hide things, the treasures of the chapter must be hidden in this Zhuangzi, brothers, now we are making a fortune." ”

Zhu Youliang's words received many responses, and the crowd was excited for a while, and they shouted one after another.

Xin Baichuan said with a smile: "Let's be quiet, we are not bandits who rob houses." ”

Although Zhu Youliang is a rough person, he also knows some humor, and immediately hehe echoed and said: "Hey, hey, yes, we're here to drink tea!"

In the middle of the night, the brigade of people came to the village to record it, of course, not for tea. Everybody understands this. The second protector is an elegant person. I like the whole good name before I do it. This is not new to everyone.

Xin Baichuan shook his head with a smile, looked behind him, nodded a few people, and said, "You go in with me, and the rest stay outside." ”

Zhu Youliang didn't want to be spotted, and asked, "Second Protector, why don't you let the brothers go in? ”

Xin Baichuan smiled and said, "How big is this Zhuangzi? The fourth. You should stay outside, and if something happens, you can have an echo. ”

Zhu Youliang saw Xin Baichuan leading forty or fifty people in, snorted, and said: "I, I can't pass the test for a single talent, and I still want to learn from Zhuge Kongming, and I don't pee to take care of myself?

Zhu Youliang was surrounded by his own people, and one of them asked at the moment: "Four Dharma Protectors, what should we do? Isn't there nothing to be gained?"

Zhu Youliang turned his head and said, "This surnamed Xin wants to eat alone, but he doesn't have a door!" Everyone is keeping an eye on it, the treasures of this chapter are all in this house, and when the four protectors drink tea and find something, we will all go in, and take as many as we want. ”

Xin Baichuan didn't know the plans of the outsiders, he took people to follow Du Yeping into the Zhuangzi, and saw that the trees inside were sparse, the courtyard was elegant, and it was quiet, and the smile on his face was even greater. When they arrived at the gate of the main courtyard, under the eaves stood two men who looked like servants, one of whom was about sixteen or seventeen years old, and although he was born with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, his face was pale, and his legs and feet were trembling. The other was already in his sixtieth year, his face was full of fear, and when he saw the large group of people coming, he was so frightened that he seemed to be unable to stand steadily, but fortunately the kid next to him helped him.

Xin Baichuan glanced at the two of them and threw them aside. Entering the main courtyard, Du Yeping led Xin Baichuan to sit down, took the tea handed over by the kid next to him, personally served it to Xin Baichuan's hand, and said respectfully: "Four, four protectors, please." ”

Xin Baichuan saw that he was strong all the way, and he was already in a cold sweat by this time, and his heart was even more contemptuous. The few people who held the seal in his hand already knew a little about the situation in this village. He took the tea, smelled the aroma of Miaomiao, took a sip, and asked with a smile, "Isn't your host here?"

Du Yeping lowered his head and replied, "No." ”

"What about the head of this Zhuangzi?" Xin Baichuan asked again.

Du Yeping glanced at Xin Baichuan, shook his head, and said, "This Zhuangzi is the little father, and he, he is not in the Zhuangzi. ”

When Xin Baichuan saw him like that, he guessed that he was probably Du Yeping, the son of Du Huiming, the big shopkeeper of Zhang Ji in Jiangling. He saw that although he was young and afraid of the surface, he did not lose the general situation, so he smiled and said, "You are the son of the shopkeeper of Duda?"

"Yes, exactly. Du Yeping nodded.

"Your father is a guest in my house. Xin Baichuan smiled and said, "My Red Lotus Sect Red Lotus King is the body of the destiny of heaven, the people of the Quartet are all sincerely convinced, and the shopkeeper Du is also actively supporting, and I am willing to give all my net worth to help our king succeed as soon as possible, and we are also here this time to fulfill the Du shopkeeper." ”

Du Yeping was so frightened that he knelt on the ground all of a sudden, and said tremblingly: "I, I, I can't do this thing......

Xin Baichuan looked at Du Yeping at his feet, and said condescendingly: "You don't believe my words?"

Du Yeping's head almost fell to the ground, and he quickly shook his head, "No, no, don't dare, yes, my family doesn't have any background, so I really can't get ......"

Xin Baichuan's boots stepped on the ground, smiled, and said: "The shopkeeper Du said that although the Du family has no family background, the things in the chapter are all in this Zhuangzi, and now they are all in his charge." The owner was not there, so he made the decision for Zhang Ji and gave all these things. Steward Xiao Du, look, did you take it out, or did I ask someone to move it?"

Du Yeping was so frightened that Suo Suo trembled, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. Xin Baichuan smiled again and said, "Didn't Steward Du believe me?" I have here the token given by Steward Du, and you can see if it's true or false. As he spoke, he raised his chin at the man next to him. The man immediately took out a cloth bag and threw it in front of Du Yeping.

The cloth bag was just wrapped casually, and when it was thrown out, it fell apart a little. Du Yeping saw that there were blood flowers on the outside of the cloth bag, and he was already frightened in his heart, but in front of the people of the Red Lotus Sect, he didn't dare not reach out and take it, and opened it tremblingly, and a finger appeared. Du Yeping screamed in fright and fell to the ground.

Gu Yu, who was waiting for tea on the side, hurriedly supported him.

Xin Baichuan looked at Du Yeping with a smile and asked gently, "Xiao Du should believe it now, right?"

Du Yeping stared at the finger for a while, and Gu Yu pinched him hard. Du Ye calmed down. Nodding. He trembled and said, "Faith." Believe, I, I'll take you and move ......."

Xin Baichuan stood up satisfied. Du Yeping shouted: "Second Protector!" Xin Baichuan thought that he had changed his mind, and looked at Du Yeping with a smile. Du Yeping said again: "You, you also know that there are many things in Zhangji, which are rare and fragile. It's not easy to get into the curry, and it's usually only me and my father who have been in it......"

Of course, Xin Baichuan knew that the most valuable thing in Zhangji was rare jade, and there were many people, and there were too many people who entered at once, so it was inevitable that there would be some mistakes. Good things must be seen before they are spoken. He understood, nodded at the two die-hard henchmen, and said, "You guys come with me." The rest are waiting here. ”

Du Yeping also turned his head to Gu Yu and said, "You are so good at serving a few masters, don't be lazy." ”

Gu Yu bowed his head and responded, beckoning the people left behind to eat the tea fruit.

Du Yeping led Xin Baichuan to the door of a deserted courtyard and stepped forward to unlock it. Said respectfully: "Second Protector, please come in." ”

Xin Baichuan came in and looked around the courtyard. Seeing that it was more quiet than elsewhere, he was secretly vigilant in his heart, and handed over a look and two die-hard henchmen. The two of them understood, one followed Du Yeping closely every inch, and the other always followed Xin Baichuan.

Du Yeping opened another door, glanced back at Xin Baichuan and the others, and saw them standing at the door without moving, knowing that they were suspicious, he bowed his head and went in first. Xin Baichuan waited for Du Yeping and his henchmen to go in, and he followed up. When I entered the room, I realized that this room was just an ordinary study, with bookshelves against the wall, full of books of all colors, and pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the center table. He couldn't help but wonder in his heart, and looked at Du Yeping unhappily.

Du Yeping didn't dare to look at him for too long, lowered his head and grabbed the inkstone on the table, turned around, and after a rattling sound, a row of bookshelves against the wall on the east side actually separated from the middle, revealing a dark and secluded doorway.

Xin Baichuan's eyes lit up, and he secretly praised in his heart, his trick was really right, such a hidden place, if they rushed in before and accidentally killed this Du Yeping by mistake, I am afraid that they may not be able to find the right place even if they dig three feet into the ground.

Du Yeping took down the candlestick in the corner, pointed to the door of the cave and said: "This is the secret vault of the chapter, only the owner and our father and son know." ”

The two people who followed Xin Baichuan in were both excited and a little worried--who knew if there was an ambush in the dark door of this cave? If they hadn't been accidentally hit, it would have been troublesome. Both of them looked back at Xin Baichuan.

Xin Baichuan nodded gently. Several people who were holding the chapter mark in his hand, although Du Huiming, the big shopkeeper of the chapter mark, had a hard mouth and didn't say anything when he had a finger chopped off, but one of his men was pried open. The owner of the chapter is still in Jingkou Town, there are only twenty or thirty people in this Zhuangzi, and there are already five in his hands, and there are at most about 20 people in this Zhuangzi. It's just some miscellaneous guys and some maids, what can they do? The two people he brought in are all good hands who can fight with one to three, and they can't help these people? Besides, they still have people in the main courtyard and outside the Zhuangzi, and this Du Huiming's son will not dare to do anything with them, no matter how bold he is.

After getting Xin Baichuan's signal, one person followed Du Yeping in, and Xin Baichuan led another person to come in.

I think this courtyard is closer to the mountain, and the secret vault of the chapter is open in the mountain, and they have not walked a few steps in the corridor, and their eyes suddenly open up. The light in Du Yeping's hand was shining, but he saw that the space in front of him was about the size of one or two rooms, and all kinds of rare treasures were displayed on the Bogu shelves placed in layers, some of which were packed in boxes, and some of which were just resting on the Bogu shelves, shining under the dim light.

Xin Baichuan was born in a poor family, and Rao is they have all the mansions of wealthy businessmen and officials in Jiangling City, and they have never seen such a formation. He was dumbfounded for a moment. The two henchmen who came in with him were even more distracted, and one of them rushed to an open box out of control, grabbed the pearl inside, looked at it happily, and immediately put it in his pocket.

Xin Baichuan brought them in, thinking that good things should be passed through his hands first. Another henchman who followed up saw that Xin Baichuan didn't say anything to stop it, and his heart was also itchy, so he picked up a piece of crystal clear jade and put it in his pocket. Xin Baichuan looked as he walked, and saw a box covered with red brocade on the shelf in front of him, so he immediately walked over and lifted the red brocade. The wood grain of the box is smooth, and it is slightly cool to start, like a yellow pear. This box is obviously different from the surrounding furnishings. It's certainly not ordinary.

Xin Baichuan opened it carefully, and the box was covered with red silk, and only a bead the size of a finger was placed in it, goose yellow, crystal clear. Xin Baichuan recognized it for a long time, and Fang guessed in shock in his heart: Could this be Beizhu?!

Beizhu is produced in the Mudanjiang area of the northeast, and has always been only used by the imperial court, and the picking matters are carried out under the supervision of the imperial court and the garrison, and no one is allowed to keep it privately. In recent years, the imperial court has become more and more mediocre, and its jurisdiction over the northeast side is not as good as before, and this northern pearl has gradually become popular in the market - however, it can only be seen privately in the northeast, and only some wealthy families in the south of the Yangtze River can be seen.

I really can't imagine that there is such a good thing in Zhangji.

Zhangji Trading House and Yun's Horse Gang were originally connected, and Yun's Horse Gang was all over the world, and there were transactions everywhere, and it was not very unusual for his family to get a North Pearl by luck.

It's a pity that such a good thing will be cheaper for him in the end.

Xin Baichuan almost laughed out loud in his heart. It's really worth the trip, with this bead, he will not have to worry about making a fortune in the future, even if the big thing of the Red Lotus Sect is not successful, he is not afraid - once this bead changes hands, it will be a thousand gold!

Xin Baichuan was about to pick up the beads, when he suddenly heard a pop sound, he immediately turned his head to look at the sound, and saw a person not far behind him. The lights were dim, and the man fell face down, with a feathered arrow stuck in his vest. has followed his die-hard confidant for many years, and he doesn't need to look at his face to tell the difference.

"Third son!" Xin Baichuan exclaimed.

As his words settled, another pop sounded, accompanied by a scream that was familiar to him.

Xin Baichuan's heart sank, and he was about to act, but he only lifted his foot, and he almost fell headlong, and his eyes were also black. Only then did he know that he had been tricked, so he quickly shook his head, bit his tongue again, and woke up for a moment. Turn your head and look around. The dim light rested on the Bogu shelf only a few steps away from him, and the boy with the lamp left at some point, except for the two unconscious people who fell to the ground in the dim space, he couldn't move.

"Third son, Ding Hammer!" Xin Baichuan shouted. (To be continued......)
