Chapter Fifty-Eight: Into the Castle
How could He Xiaotian suddenly buy gold mines in a big way, he was just a subordinate in the Bai family, although Bai Lufeng regarded him as his own brother, and the people in the courtyard also gave him three points, but he definitely couldn't have so much money. The only possibility www.biquge.info Pen Fun Pavilion is that he purchased the gold mine with the authorization of Bai Lufeng. Why did White Land Breeze buy gold mines? The Bai family is indeed a big family in Xinyi Town, with plenty of food and clothing, but the Bai family has practiced martial arts for generations and has never been in business, so how could they suddenly want to buy gold mines? Things related to Bai Lufeng have become weird, first there were six embroidery houses in the south of the Yangtze River, and now they are buying gold mines in a high-profile manner, it seems that the Bai family is rich and rivals the country. Could it be that the Bai family has any secrets?
"Yuanjiabao is located in the western suburbs of Yuecheng for more than 100 miles, and has been isolated from the world for hundreds of years, and the clansmen have never gone out, and it is difficult for outsiders to enter. Yuanjiabao is rich in minerals, and it is rumored that gold is everywhere, and dozens of teams of people go there every year, either to discuss business or have bad intentions, but no one survives. The terrain of Yuanjiabao is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it can be said that it is impossible to open a husband. Zhu Junan reminded, "Brother Bai, Brother He, you are weak, and you may be worried about your life when you enter Yuanjiabao, if you don't mind, I can arrange for people to follow you in case of emergency." ”
I have to admit that Zhu Junan is a rare gentleman, and he can be so calm in the face of the people who rob him of gold mines, and even offer to help.
"It's okay, He Shaoxia, I have been traveling south and north for many years, and I haven't seen any formation." He Xiaotian said with a smile, "Maybe in addition to gold, there is also a big girl like flowers and jade hidden in the castle, so I won't earn it." ”
"A big girl like a flower will take a fancy to you like a bear?" Bai Lufeng was dismissive.
"Am I a bear?! Without such an insult, you didn't see the eyes of those beautiful women in the Chamber of Commerce today, they almost drowned me, they didn't look at you with such eyes, you are like a block of ice. He Xiaotian was sarcastic.
"Who do you say is the ice cube?" Bai Lufeng asked.
"It's you, except for Miss Wang, which of the other girls are not cold, what is not ice?" He Xiaotian was not to be outdone. The two fought for each other, and Zhu Junan couldn't interject at all.
The next day, the three of them set off from Yuecheng and headed for Yuanjiabao. As soon as he left the city gate, he saw Zhu Jun'an smiling at everyone on horseback, "Yuan Jiabao and his party are in danger, I really don't worry about the two brothers and Miss Wang, I have thought about it all night, and I am ready to go with you to help you." Although my martial arts skills are not as good as a few, I have learned a few punches and feet since elementary school, which is enough to protect myself. ”
"If that's the case, then there's Brother Lao Zhu." Bai Lufeng is also not polite. The man who led a few people on the road was the man who sold the gold mine yesterday, and the man called himself Yuan Feng, who was the young master of Yuanjiabao.
When the sun was about to set, several people finally arrived outside Yuanjiabao. Looking up, but seeing that Yuanjiabao was surrounded by high mountains and deep streams, and entering the fort had to walk along the cliffs, climb over three mountains, and cross two turbulent rivers.
"The road on the cliff is so narrow that only one person can pass sideways, making it difficult for horses to pass. A few remember to be careful, the slightest mistake can lead to falling into the abyss, and dozens of people die at the bottom of this cliff every year. Yuan Feng reminded.
Several people followed Yuan Feng's movements and carefully climbed over the cliff. Along the way, Bai Lufeng firmly grasped Wang Yizhu's hand. Wang Yizhu wanted to get rid of it many times, but to no avail, he could only let Bai Lufeng grasp it. Bai Lufeng's hand was so warm that it made people feel at ease, completely forgetting that they were climbing on the cliff at the moment.
After crossing the high mountains, you will come to the rushing river, which is dozens of feet wide, and the river whirlpools in the water. Suddenly, a whistle sounded from the opposite side, and Yuan Feng immediately replied with the same whistle. Suddenly, a small boat rowed out of the grass on the opposite side and came in the direction of Bai Lufeng and a few people.
The rower was a young man in his early twenties with round arms. "Young master, the news has been transmitted back to the castle, and the castle master is waiting in the lobby." After the young man finished speaking, he did not forget to look at a few people vigilantly. Seeing Yuan Feng nodding, he carried everyone across the river.
In this way, when it was pitch black, a few people were able to reach the gate of Yuanjiabao. Although the journey was quite smooth, Wang Yizhu felt that there were organs everywhere, and if it wasn't for Yuan Feng to lead the way, they would have been left with no bones long ago. It seems that the rumors from the outside world are true, and Yuanjiabao is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack. I don't know what kind of people the ancestors of Yuanjiabao were to be able to find such a dangerous terrain and settle here. Why did they move here? Why isolation? Yuan Feng said at the Chamber of Commerce that Yuanjiabao has encountered an unprecedented crisis, what is this crisis?
With doubts in his head, Wang Yizhu followed everyone into Yuanjiabao. The people inside the fort were all strong and strong, holding various weapons in their hands, and watched vigilantly at the arrival. Wang Yizhu could clearly feel the masters buried in the shadows, and he could judge that the internal force was quite deep based on their breathing. If someone comes to play tricks, I believe that they will soon be surrounded by masters.
The road inside the fort is winding and winding, like a complex gossip map, or more like a military layout map. If there is no one to lead the way, the chances of getting lost are quite high. All you see along the way are sturdy men, and it is difficult to find the elderly, children and women. It seems that Yuanjiabao is on high alert.
Under the leadership of Yuan Feng, several people came to the lobby. The torches in the lobby were blazing, illuminating the surroundings as if it were daylight. The lobby was full of people standing on both sides, all with serious expressions, looking at Bai Lufeng and the others vigilantly. Sitting directly above was a white-bearded old man, the old man had a ruddy complexion, a few scars on his face, he was not angry and arrogant, and he thought that he should have experienced many vicious fights when he was young. The old man looked at the visitor lightly, not so much looking as scrutinizing, although there was no expression, no language, but where his eyes swept, it was all chilling. The old man in front of him is not simple! At this time, Bai Lufeng held his hand and squeezed it tighter, and it seemed that he was also aware of this problem. Only then did Wang Yizhu react, Bai Lufeng actually held his hand all the way, and quickly pulled out his hand, but the more he struggled, the tighter Bai Lufeng's grip became.
"Father, the deal for the gold mine has been negotiated, 10 million taels, and it is this son who made the bid." Yuan Feng pointed at He Xiaotian.
"Good!" The old man looked at He Xiaotian, but his eyes fell on Bai Lufeng, refusing to leave, "Who is this son?" ”
"This is my good brother Bai Lufeng." He Xiaotian introduced, "The other one is Zhu Gongzi, this girl's surname is Wang. Old man, we have been hungry all the way, so let's talk about whether we can fill our stomachs first. ”
"Of course." The old man nodded, and then several people were ushered into the room next to the lobby to eat.
