"Ahem! Ahem! ”

Lu San, who was choked on a sturdy one, coughed violently, then pointed at the children, and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you children doing? ”

"Oh!"

The children were startled when they saw Lu San being taken aback by their "masterpiece", and they danced happily and clapped their hands again and again.

"How dare you laugh?"

Lu San was so angry, he was actually played by a few children, or in front of Wu Di - he didn't want to lose face?

As he spoke, he ran towards the children and made a gesture to catch them.

The children were not afraid, but grimaced at him, and scattered along the path from which they had come.

"Come back!"

Seeing that Lu San was still going to chase, Wu Di hurriedly stopped him.

"You're not ashamed to be like a child!"

As soon as Wu Di said it, Lu San blushed and said, "I...... I just want to ask them if it's the Xiao family mine in front of them! ”

"No need to ask!"

Wu Di walked to the place where the smoke was coming from just now, squatted down and looked at the white stones on the ground that were still broken, picked them up and twisted them lightly, and crushed them.

"It must be the Xiao family mine ahead!"

From what the children had just lit and what he had observed, they must have burned saltpeter, which was this white stone!

Because when saltpeter burns, it glows purple and emits a lot of black smoke, exactly like the situation just now.

So he concluded that the Xiao family mine was behind it.

After speaking, he didn't care about Lu San, and walked forward on his own.

Seeing this, Lu San hurriedly led the donkey, followed closely behind, and walked towards the front.

………………

After walking a little further, the white mine is already close in sight.

Wu Di looked around, except for a corner of a huge mansion hidden behind the mine, there was nothing else, and what was even more puzzling was that there was no sign on the way, not even a guard.

It's also a place to provide things for the royal family, which is too careless, right?

"Let's go! Let's get it! ”

At this moment, an old man who was also driving a donkey cart and wearing a linen-gray robe came out from behind the mine, and Wu Di and the others just blocked the way for him to leave, so they shouted from afar.

Wu Di hurriedly asked Lu San to lead the donkey to the side to hide, stood at the intersection by himself, waited for the old man to approach, folded his hands, and asked with a smile: "Old man, can I ask you about something?" ”

Perhaps he had never been so respected like Wu Di, the old man's face was flushed, he stopped the donkey cart, and said with the same smile: "Childe, it's okay to say!" ”

"Old man, this mountain is the Xiao family mine?"

The old man nodded, this kind of brain-dead question, he really had no interest in speaking.

"Why haven't we found any protective fence around the mine? There is not even a single guard, could it be that they are all in the back mountain? ”

After listening to Wu Di's question, the old man shook his head and said: "The back mountain is the mouth of the mine, and there are just miners mining saltpeter there, where are there any guards?" ”

"This ...... If you don't even have a guard, aren't you afraid that someone will come and dig saltpeter secretly? ”

As soon as Wu Di said this, the old man looked at him with very surprised eyes: "I think you are not a local, right?" How else can you not know the prestige of Boss Xiao? Just by virtue of Boss Xiao's name, who would dare to steal saltpeter? Even if he digs it, I'm afraid there will be no life flower! ”

Hearing this, Wu Di knew that it was not only Sun Xingdao who was afraid of Xiao Lishan, but there were few people in Qi Nancheng who were not afraid of him!

It is said that the name of the person, the shadow of the tree, Xiao Lishan is a black-and-white character in the territory of Qinan City, even the thieves dare not fight the idea of the Xiao family's mine, how dare those thieves come to die?

"Sir, I have to ask you, does Boss Xiao live in that mansion on weekdays?"

As he spoke, Wu Di stretched out his hand and pointed to the mansion in front of his right that was hidden by the mine and could only see a corner.

The old man shook his head, "Not necessarily! If the house is talked about, it is more of a warehouse for storing saltpeter, and Boss Xiao will occasionally be here, and he will live in the city most of the time!

But you are lucky today, when the old man went in to deliver the food just now, he happened to see Boss Xiao in the house behind the warehouse! ”

After listening to the old man, Wu Di's face was happy.

They came all the way to find Xiao Lishan, if he wasn't there, this trip would be in vain!

So he hugged his fist at the old man, "Thank you, old man, for solving your doubts!" Let's go in and find Boss Xiao and say goodbye! ”

As he spoke, he got up and wanted to go forward.

At this time, the old man began to have the strength to look at the two carefully.

Wu Di, although the dress is not exquisite, but it is by no means shabby, not like a force, and the guy who follows behind him looks like a small guy and a kind of person, especially the donkey cart he is holding is too broken, it is a lot more broken than his own, which is suspicious.

What are they here for?

First of all, they definitely didn't come to pull saltpeter, because when the old man saw someone else coming to pull saltpeter, which one wasn't pulling a wide carriage? At least two horses are pulled!

This donkey cart is barely pulling a dish, and pulling saltpeter is enough!

Pull vegetables?

Thinking of this possibility, the old man was a little nervous.

He had just started to deliver vegetables to the Xiao family mine not long ago, if such a fat poor was robbed, would it be worth it?

At that time, he grabbed Wu Di.

"Sir, is there anything else?"

was dragged by the old man, Wu Di was almost dragged down, if it weren't for the face of this old man helping him, he would have planned to disrespect the old and love the young once today!

"Uh...... What did Childe do when he came to Boss Xiao? ”

Perhaps realizing that his actions were a little reckless, the old man asked with a smile.

"We're here to ask Boss Xiao for an account!"

Wu Di did not hide it, and said it directly.

"Looking for Boss Xiao...... Asking for an account? ”

The old man guessed many possibilities, but he didn't guess this!

Come to Xiao Lishan to ask for an account, you're not kidding, are you?

"Wu Gongzi is our Mr. Drunken Xiangju's bookkeeper, and today I came to find Boss Xiao to settle the accounts owed in Zuixiangju!"

Seeing that the old man was stunned, Lu San also helped explain.

"You ...... Ahem...... Terrible! That's amazing! The old man said goodbye! Leave! ”

These two people went all the way to the Xiao family mine to ask Xiao Lishan for an account?

I'm sick in the brain!

If Xiao Lishan is unhappy, in this barren mountain and wild place, no one will know if he chops and feeds the dogs!

Let's run, don't let Xiao Lishan see it, I think I have nothing to do with them, and it will be funny to be angry with him when the time comes!

The old man looked at them like a fool, then turned over on the donkey and walked away!

(There is something to do today, so it will be a change, and tomorrow it will be a hero!) )
