A.D. 1926, the 15th year of the Republic of China, the lunar calendar Bingyin, there is no leap month throughout the year, that is, there is no spring day, the ancient saying is called no spring year, the folk also call it the widow's year, ordinary people are not suitable for marriage, but for the society, it is a lot of things to increase the differences, like water and fire.

This year, from the beginning of the new year, Feng Yuxiang first telegraphed to the wilderness, then Zhang Zuolin announced the independence of the three eastern provinces, and then bombarded Dagukou, within a year the two parties of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party were united and divided, divided and united, and then the Northern Expedition began.

The old man was 26 years old at that time, and one day he got a gold artifact from the underground sales channel, and the old man said that he saw it at a glance, and asked the little foot of the stolen goods and said that this gold artifact originated from an ancient tomb in Wulu Mountain in Northeast Medicine, and was found by local farmers when they repaired their houses and laid foundations.

The owner of the tomb is wearing a Ming Dynasty armor, may be a general, and the sternum has obvious traces of bone grafting, I don't know whether it is injured and died or the old wounds left, the scale of the whole tomb is very simple, and there are not many burial goods, so it can be seen that the owner of the tomb is not a prominent official.

The old man looks at the gold object is rectangular, there is a picture of mountains and rivers cast on it, the three peaks in the middle are two high and one short, the sky is a full moon, there is a fox looking up to the sky and the moon on the top of the low peak, there is a river between the peaks, a pine tree pokes out from the peak, there is also a full moon under the tree, and it looks like the reflection of the full moon in the sky in the water.

On the back of the gold, a poem is engraved:

The sun and the moon swallow mountains and rivers, and reincarnation is the principle of heaven; Liaodong Jingoma, bare head to protect the country.

arrogant and resentful, who wants to beg the army; The moon by the water in the mountains is a solitary life.

The old man's sensitivity to robbing the tomb made him feel that there was hidden information here, and combined with the analysis of the landscape and poetry on the gold artifact, he gradually guessed that this was a treasure map.

The beginning of the poem is the sun and the moon swallowing mountains and rivers, judging from the word splitting, the sun and the moon are bright, but it is also in line with the dynasty of the tomb owner, the latter sentence Liaodong Jingoma, the bare head protects the rivers and mountains, which is in line with the position of Lushan in Liaodong, and the red head is the Ming army, because Zhu Yuanzhang raised the army is the Red Turban Army.

But the word "reincarnation" and "protection" are used strangely, the previous sentence reads, it seems to say that the Ming Dynasty got the country is determined by reincarnation, and the latter word seems to say that the country is in difficulty in defending the regime. But this span is too big, it may be to resist the counterattack of the Yuan Dynasty in the early Ming Dynasty, or it may be to resist the Later Jin Dynasty in the late Ming Dynasty.

The next two sentences are definitely a description of the life of the characters in the poem, but first, the time span is too large, and secondly, there are many generals who have been unjustly killed by these hats, and naturally his identity cannot be determined, and the meaning of the last sentence is that he has obtained a happy life by taking something alone, which must be the meaning of treasure.

But if this is really a treasure map, and the owner of the tomb who holds the gold artifact is also a general, is the treasure the owner of the tomb his own? Or is he just a general who knows the secret and does tomb robbing? Didn't he discover the real location or didn't have the ability to steal it? Were the injuries on his body caused by tomb robbers? So did he rob the tomb and die with hatred?

What's even more weird, why is there not a house or a fairy Buddha on this low hill, but a fox, the fox Mochizuki has never heard any allusions, and besides, the fox guards the treasure? This speculation is too bizarre.

At that time, the old man's father had died, and he could only consult with the two uncles, who also thought that this gold must be a treasure clue, and the treasure must be in the Ming Dynasty, but they could not determine the age and who the owner was.

But looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, whether it was the beginning of the Ming Dynasty or the end of the Ming Dynasty, no matter how turbulent the situation was and the war was cruel, only the common people were struggling to make a living, which did not affect the killing talents who were generals to collect money for themselves. And the entire history of the feudal dynasty, either external worries or internal troubles, it is said that this Ming Dynasty, in the early days, there was the Northern Yuan Dynasty entrenched, and Zhu Yuanzhang slaughtered the heroes inside, and at the end of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng rebelled inside, and then Jin Tieqi was detained outside. When it is not safe inside and outside, it is also possible for a general outside the pass to transfer his treasure and bury it in the mountains.

But the two elders analyzed and analyzed, and they both felt that there was no need to take this risk, regardless of whether the general in the tomb was the owner of the treasure or not, at least this gold artifact was artificially cast, and naturally it was difficult to guarantee that only the owner of the tomb knew that the people behind would have taken this treasure long ago.

And now that the war is in chaos, the family is not short of money to live, and it is not worth it to let two young children go on an adventure.

However, the old man didn't know why, he wanted to go to this treasure, and he secretly felt that once this treasure was opened, there would be something more valuable than gold and silver.

So, the old man said goodbye to his two uncles, assumed the pseudonym Lu Yunling, disguised himself as Mr. Private School, and went to the Northeast Medical Wulu Mountain alone, and finally passed Jinzhou in mid-April and entered the mountainous area.

Yiwu Lu Mountain is located in Jinzhou, close to the north town, can be said to be the first mountain in the northeast, the earliest record can be traced back to "Erya", which records in the "Shidi Chapter" that the Yellow Emperor's grandson Zhuanxu (Zhuanxu) the Great is buried here, and it is rich in gems, especially red agate, the ancient language is called Xunyuqi, even Zhou Tianzi has sacrificed to the southern fire emperor Chizhang.

The old man also came to Yiwulu Mountain for the first time, and on the way to find Anjiao Village, he climbed the mountain peak to see the shape of the mountain.

This Lu Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles from east to west, the main vein is continued by dozens of peaks such as the dragon's spine and is clearly discernible, the rest of the low peaks are scattered far and near like guards, the boulders on the mountain are craggy, especially at the cliff place, the abrupt bare boulders are flat and smooth, as if cut artificially, the trees and vegetation in the mountains grow in the rock crevices, and some precipitous places poke out the hanging ancient trees.

Towards evening, the old man came across a village along the mountain road. In order to be able to settle down successfully, he first wiped the dirt on the side of his body, and did not let go of his face, and the bookcase behind him also deliberately broke a strap, and then put a small stone in the shoe of his right foot, and immediately limped one step at a time, and was ready, and then walked towards the village.

Because it is a mountainous area, the scale of this village in the middle of the mountain is not large, and the farmhouse houses are scattered on the mountain.

In the evening, every family is cooking, and it seems that this place is not disturbed by the chaos outside, and the days are very leisurely.

But a stranger suddenly entered the village, which naturally attracted attention, and several earth dogs rushed straight over, yelling at the old man viciously, and some middle-aged people also followed the sound, and some even copied the guy.

When the old man saw the earth dog rushing over, he took advantage of the situation to hide backwards, and then accidentally fell to the ground on his back, holding his head with both hands and shouting for help.

At this time, a middle-aged man who rushed over shouted, and the earth dogs suddenly wilted and returned to the middle-aged man with their tails between their legs.

"Big brother, where are you from? What are you doing in our village? ”

The middle-aged man looked like the leader at a glance, and several around him were surrounded by a semicircle on both sides, and he pulled up the old man as he asked.

"To tell you the truth, I am from Bazhou, Hebei, my parents died early, I sold the fields in the village, and set up a private school in the county to teach, but I never thought that the only heirloom I brought out from my hometown was actually favored by the bullies in the county, and I insisted on snatching it. I couldn't bear to be insulted anymore, so I just ran away. I heard that Zhang Dashuai announced the ********, and this place is known as a granary, so I wanted to go to Fengtian to beg for food. ”

The middle-aged man looked at the old man carefully, and saw that he was covered with mud, and the box on his back also had a broken strap, and the books inside were scattered.

"Well, since they are all poor, then go to my house, although we are in the mountains, it is safer than outside, and there is a surplus of food, but the conditions at home are poor, look at your gentleman who is a teacher, don't be surprised."

The old man hurriedly said yes, and then limped to his house with the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man's name is Li Qin, his wife died early, there is an old father and a son at home, and the two younger sisters have already married to other villages.

On the way, Li Qin took the initiative to help carry the bookcase, and the old man shirked it twice and handed it over, he knew that this was someone to check and weigh.

Halfway along the mountain road, you can see a courtyard wall surrounded by wooden poles and firewood sticks, and a dilapidated wooden gate is higher than the courtyard wall.

Push the door in, there is a grinding plate and grass chicken cage common in rural homes in the mountainous areas of Northeast China, a grocery room on the left-hand side, and the main house in the middle, that is, an adobe house made of yellow mud and straw, with thatch on the roof.

Li Qin let the old man into the main room and put the bookcase at the door, which was still on guard, to separate the box from the old man. At this time, an old man came out of the back room, tall and hunchbacked, bald and wrinkled, and looked like a standard old farmer.

"Dad, his name is Lu Yunling, a native of Hebei, he is a teacher, he fled to our northeast, he passed by the village today, and fell again in the mountains, I think he is pitiful, so I will leave him for one night."

As soon as the old man heard that he was a teacher, he nodded politely, pulled the old man to sit down, and the two began to talk.

"Alas, this troubled times are like this, how can we ordinary people have a stable place to settle down, and the same is true in the Northeast, don't look at the rumors outside that we are good here, in fact, it is all fake, the Japanese and Huangmaozi are fighting for here, but those big cities are really not as good as our mountains, clean and quiet."

"What the old man said is, I don't know how many generations of your ancestors lived here?"

"That's a long time, this village alone has thousands of years, this mountain is also a spiritual mountain, when my grandfather was still there, he always told me that the mountains that the emperor can personally come to worship are all treasures, Li Shimin came back from the expedition to Goryeo, and came here to worship heaven and earth. But now that the emperor is gone, your home is close to the capital, you say, what is the difference between the Republic of China and the Qing Dynasty? ”

"Oh, old man, I'm just a poor teacher, I've never been to the capital, where do I know those truths, but, I read the newspaper and said that in the past, when we were in the Qing Dynasty, it was called ****, that is, the power belonged to the emperor alone, and now it is called a republic, that is, everyone has power."

"Phew, it's all those cubs who stay abroad to brag, the world is so big, there must be a person in charge, this emperor is here, the world is unified, look at now, the emperor is gone, there are warlords everywhere. Don't look at the old man, I'm in my sixties, but every time the chief security officer comes over, I have to ask what's going on outside. ”

"Haha, the old man is really in Xianshan and cares about mortal dust, by the way, I will ask you, they all say that Lushan is not far from Beizhen, I don't know how long it will take?"

"Not far away, it was said to us mountain people, to go to Beizhen, you have to go over the mountain, this mountain road is dangerous and winding, you see you will fall today." We mountain people have to walk for more than half a day to get to Beizhen, and it's a good thing that you, a foreigner, can get out of the mountains and not get lost. Don't be busy, stay first, tell the old man about the outside, and I'll let my grandson send you out of the mountain when I turn around. ”

The old man nodded gratefully, and saw the old man shouting to Li Qin.

"Go cook, open the wine that the chief has given me, I will have two drinks with the young gentleman in the evening, and return the bookcase to others, don't be careful."

Li Qin's face turned red, nodded and returned the bookcase, the old man opened it, deliberately checked inside, and after a few efforts, he took out a bag of silver coins from the secret compartment of the bookcase, and generously took out five of them and handed them to the old man.

"Old man, I have saved some money as a private school, and it is my blessing to meet Brother Li Qin and you today, otherwise I may have slept in the mountains and forests tonight and fed the bear blind. To tell you the truth, I will go to the city to make a living in the future with the remaining silver dollars, and I will honor you five today, and if you are developed in the future, you will definitely be honored more than you are old. ”

The old man looked at the old man in surprise, there is a way to go on the road far away and not show his wealth, but this young man suddenly took the initiative to confess, this is to hand over his life to show 100% trust. Looking at his weak temperament, he does things so brightly, and his words are sincere, and he really has a heroic spirit.

The old man nodded, took three of the five silver dollars, and returned the remaining two to the old man.

"Three pieces are enough, you can buy 70 catties of rice, 30 catties of pork, even if you live here for a long time, it is more than enough, since you say filial piety, then the old decay is not welcome, even if I subsidize you again, these two will have to pay me back the interest in the future, hahaha!"

The old man was secretly happy in his heart, the so-called investigation is nothing more than to let the person under investigation relax his vigilance and accept himself through words and acting skills, and then consciously obtain the information he needs. This old man likes to listen to what he sees and hears outside, and he even has his own opinions, and the old man who likes new things is the most cute, just like a child, as long as he unfolds from here, he can go around the topic of the mountains. This is the so-called you respect me a foot, I pay you back, in the conversation is called "return of etiquette", that is, you first cater to the other party's interests to be satisfied, and then the other party will naturally tell you the information you want.

Since the old father in charge of the family ordered, Li Qin naturally hurried to prepare the meal, and at this time his son came back, carrying a bundle of firewood, and shouted as soon as he entered the courtyard.

"Grandpa, grandpa, today I went up the mountain with my sixth son to chop firewood, and I saw the chief of the security guard entering the mountain with a bunch of people, and I guess I went to dig agate again."

"This dog-legged, for the sake of those few leading money, he can't take outsiders to dig up treasures at every turn, and I don't know if his father knows it, the next time I see him, I'll kill him!"

The boy went into the house as he spoke, and found an outsider sitting in the room, and immediately felt that he had lost his mouth, and turned around and went to the kitchen to find his father.

The old man looked at this little guy, he was fourteen or fifteen years old, although he was five big and three coarse, but he looked childish, and his personality followed his father, and he immediately blushed when he was embarrassed, and he was very cute.

After a while, the little guy came over with the dishes, and as soon as he entered the door, he looked at the old man, thinking to himself what was the origin of this young man, he had such a sumptuous dinner, and even made a plate of wild boar bacon that his grandfather was usually reluctant to eat, and then looked at it, there was even liquor.

So, he simply sat down next to the old man, and introduced himself as Li Ping, nicknamed Hanwa, fourteen years old, the old man saw that this Hanwa was a few years older than his son, so he liked it. Soon, Li Qin brought the last dish to the table, and the old man raised his wine glass.

"As the old saying goes, fate is a family, Mr. Lu can get married to my family in this poor mountain and remote place, this is also a fixed number, I really don't dare to underestimate Mr. Lu, he is young and does things brightly, so that the old man admires, come, let's go one!"

The three adults drank the wine in one gulp, then started the chopsticks, and the handsome waited for the wine on the side.

"Mr. Lu, you are teaching in the county, but there is something new to tell us, I am so good at this old man."

"Dad, you let Mr. Lu eat first, you don't know what to say about your hobby, our family is always practicing farming, what does that thing outside have to do with us. Last time, the chief told you that Zhang Xiangu became an immortal, and invited the gods to eat noodles in the county, how many believers saw that the noodles in the bowl were really gone, this is to let the gods eat, you still don't believe it, you have to quarrel with the chief of security, shame! ”

"Fuck it, old man, I believe in the Buddha and Guanyin, and I also believe in Taishang Laojun, but I just don't believe in these gods, and they say all day long that they have attained the Tao and ascended to immortality, which is nothing more than deceiving believers to collect money. If they really become immortals, why don't they fight foreigners? Mr. Lu, you said yes, right? ”

The old man felt that this time was very good, and he had to use it, only to see him smile mysteriously, stopping Li Qin, who was still arguing.
