Meng Shanhu, the general of Linyuan City, has always had a very gloomy face these days, the reason is that after Qin Chuan went to that courtyard a few days ago, there were doctors constantly going in and out of that courtyard. Apparently the treatment of the slaves in that courtyard began, but not only that, but there was also an old man, who came to his house every day with the token of the Great Liang Guard, and demanded from him the thousand gold that had been lost in that courtyard.

In fact, he used all means to get 400 gold from that courtyard, and the damn old man wanted to ask for 1,000 gold from himself in turn, which was naked blackmail and threat.

In fact, at the beginning, he didn't pay too much attention to the situation in that yard, just thought that Che Ying had placed some things. But when the slaves were imprisoned, it was accidentally learned that the slaves seemed to be hiding a secret related to the treasures of the previous dynasty

Monsanhu had only heard sporadic rumors about the treasures of the previous dynasty in the early years. According to rumors, in the Western Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Tianzi knew that the country would be destroyed, so he secretly buried a batch of the most precious treasures. Some people speculate that there are several important weapons in this batch of treasures that are important to the Zhou family's world. It is precisely because of the loss of these heavy weapons that the previous dynasty will perish so quickly.

When he heard the news, Meng Sanhu's heart suddenly became hot. In his opinion, as long as he can get the news of this treasure, no matter how he chooses in the future, he will be rich and glorious, and he will have no worries for a lifetime.

It was for this reason that he became obsessed with the slaves in this courtyard. Originally, I planned to persuade each other with good words, and slowly figure it out. But no matter what method he used, those damned slaves were indifferent to him. The fact that he could not find out the secret of the treasure made him very angry.

It also happened that Wei Chen asked for five hundred gold, so Meng Shanhu spread the anger in his heart to the people in that courtyard.

Coercion and inducement obviously didn't work, because there were a few people in that courtyard who were quite skilled, and even wounded a few soldiers at first. With nothing to do, Meng Shanhu had to use the most indiscriminate means, that is, poisoning.

Naturally, the results of poisoning have been effective, but after some coercion and inducement, torture to extract confessions, still no results have been achieved. Therefore, Monsanhu was furious and killed two men, trying to make those people feel frightened, so as to tell the secret in his heart, but who would have thought that there was a thin man who recovered ahead of schedule, and fortunately Monsanhu did not participate in person, otherwise he would have turned into a corpse in the hands of that person.

This is also why when Qin Chuan wanted to open the door, he would call a team of soldiers, not because he was really worried about Qin Chuan's injury, but because to prevent the thin man from killing himself in a frenzy.

Early this morning, the old man still came to Meng Sanhu's general's mansion on time, sitting on a stool and drinking tea, ignoring Meng Shanhu, the general who was sitting next to him with a bad face.

This old man is naturally Old Man Sun.

"General Meng, I wonder when the thousand gold lost by our son will be returned? Now that our son's subordinates have opened their mouths to eat more, the expenses are naturally larger, this thousand gold is our son's hard-earned money, and we must not make mistakes, otherwise how can I explain to Da Liang and General Che Ying. Old man Sun put down the teacup, squinted, and said seriously.

Meng Sanhu now has the urge to chop this nonsense old man to death with a knife, a thousand gold, why don't you rob it.

"At this time, Ben Jiang has already arranged for someone to investigate, and he will definitely give the old gentleman a satisfactory statement in the near future." Monsanhu said with a straight face.

"If you can't find it, it's okay, I have to tell Da Liangzao about this matter 1510, as for how Da Liangzao will deal with it, then the little old man doesn't know." After Old Man Sun finished speaking, he casually touched a token hanging on his waist.

Meng Shanhu, who was furious, suddenly lost his temper when he saw the old man's movements. Although he is a general in charge of the military and political affairs of a city, he still can't raise the slightest idea of resistance in the face of Da Liangzao.

"Don't worry, old gentleman, I will definitely send more people in the next few days to arrest the thief who dared to steal Qin Gongzi's money, and ask the old gentleman to wait a few more days." Meng Shanhu said with his fists clenched at Old Man Sun.

Old man Sun glanced at Meng Shanhu with squinted eyes, and saw that Meng Shanhu had already expressed his attitude, and it was not good to press too much. After all, he just pulled the tiger skin made by Daliang, once Monsanhu was forced to ignore it, things will be even more tricky in the future, and he still has this bit of proportion.

"Then the little old man won't bother General Meng, I'll come back in three days, I hope General Meng can have an accurate answer." After Old Man Sun finished speaking, he got up and bowed to Meng Sanhu, turned around and left the General's Mansion.

At this time, in a courtyard not far from the General's Mansion in Linyuan City, Qin Chuan was sitting in the courtyard with a sigh, and several doctors with medicine boxes on their backs were constantly going in and out of several rooms.

A few days ago, after going out of this courtyard, Qin Chuan and Erya returned to the previous village. After telling Old Man Sun about the matter briefly, Old Man Sun went to several surrounding cities non-stop, spent a lot of money, and invited the doctor there.

When Qin Chuan and four or five doctors entered the courtyard and began to treat everyone, it was indeed beyond the expectations of those slaves. It was also by taking advantage of this opportunity that Qin Chuan understood who these slaves were.

Originally, there were twenty people in total, but for some reason four people died, and sixteen remained.

These people live in four separate rooms, and they are distinct. And the weirdest thing is that each room is a small group. The first room on the left has a maximum of six people, surnamed Bai. There were four people in the second room, a boy of the same age as Qin Chuan, two middle-aged people, and a woman. The surname is Chen. In the opposite room, there were three men, surnamed Wu. In the last room there was a young girl and two women. The surname is the Han surname.

Four rooms, four surnames.

In the past few days, Qin Chuan has been like a nanny, buying new clothes for these people and preparing meals for these people. Occasionally, a few women or men came out to help, but most of the time it was Qin Chuan and Erya who finished these things.

What made Qin Chuan feel most depressed was that almost all the gold that he had asked Che Ying to bring to him was taken by Meng Shanhu, the general who defended the city.

In fact, the method used by Monsanto Tiger is also very simple, that is, to let those slaves exchange gold for food. In order not to starve to death, those slaves could only take out the gold that originally belonged to Qin Chuan, but in exchange for food that was worse than that of pigs and dogs.

After Old Man Sun, who seemed to regard himself as the housekeeper of Qinchuan, knew the news, he immediately became indignant and vowed to return all the gold.

Walking into the first room, Qin Chuan saw the young man sitting cross-legged on the ground, although he was dressed in black, although he was a little thin, he could obviously feel a different temperament, the other four people were also sitting cross-legged on the ground, and the little girl before was lying peacefully on the two-layer straw mat.

These people are all surnamed Bai, the boy's name is Bailu, and the girl's name is Baishuang'er. The two men were named after the sword, the thin man was the white sword, and the other tall man was the white sword. One of the two women is named Bai Qiu and the other is named Bai Dong.

Glancing at the white deer, Qin Chuan asked with concern, "How is Shuang'er's body?" Are you feeling better? ”

Bailu showed a smile on his face, nodded at Qin Chuan and said, "Thank you for your concern, my little sister's health is no longer in serious trouble, and it is estimated that it will take a few days to recover." ”

"That's good, that's good." Qin Chuan showed a look of relief on his face, and then continued: "What are your plans in the future?" ”

The other four all glanced at Qin Chuan, and then looked at Bailu who was sitting on the ground.

Bailu smiled and hesitated for a moment, then said slowly with some self-deprecation: "Don't hide it from the son, we are already homeless people, and it is a blessing to be taken in by the son." The world is so big, how can there be a place for us. ”

"Then you can stay here in peace, and I will definitely not let you be bullied." Qin Chuan swore to a few people.

"Do you know who's in the middle room?" Qin Chuan looked at Bailu and asked.

"Ah Dao, you tell Gongzi Qin Gongzi about the situation inside. You're the only one who's been in here. Bailu glanced at the thin man and commanded.

The thin man named White Knife listened to Bailu's words, nodded, recalled for a while, and said: "There is a person imprisoned in that room, although he can't see the depth, he can feel a dangerous aura. Normally we just took some gold from that house, and we didn't dare to disturb that person. ”

Keeping the words of the white knife in his heart, he saw that the white knife was serious, so he didn't continue to ask, and then said a good rest, what do you want to tell him, and left the room.

"Childe, do we really want to stay here forever?" Bai Jian, who had been silent, asked Bai Lu in a low voice.

"Where else can you go if you don't stay here?" Bailu whispered.

"Childe, we can ......" Bai Jian waved his hand, with a hint of cruelty in his eyes.

Seeing Bai Jian's movements, Bai Lu shook his head, a complicated look appeared in his eyes, and then said to everyone: "My Bai clan has never been ungrateful. If Qin Chuan hadn't bought us at the beginning, who knows what our fate would be now? ”

"But Childe, if this young man named Qin Chuan has bad intentions, then the young lady ......" Bai Jian continued to persuade.

"Shut up." Bai Lu glanced at Bai Jian with a cold look, then sighed and said, "Let's take one step at a time, let's take one step at a time, we have to protect our little sister after all." After speaking, he looked at the white frost lying beside him with some distress.

Bai Jian stopped what he was about to say, and the others also sat on the ground in silence with their own thoughts.
