Liu Xiu said with a smile: "This elder of ours has a strange temperament and is not very welcoming to strangers. ”

When Li Yi heard this, his facial features were about to wrinkle together, and without waiting for him to continue talking, Liu Xiu said: "Okay, everyone is tired all day, go back early to rest, tomorrow morning, we have to continue to hurry." ”

Among them, Zhang Ping's military rank is the highest, and he is the tun chief, but Zhang Ping is a big stuffy gourd, and at the end of the day, he can't say a few words, and now Liu Xiu has become the leader among them.

The crowd bowed their hands and then departed one after another.

Waiting for everyone to leave, Liu Xiu, Long Yuan, and Zhang Ping simply cleaned up, and then left the post station. When they went out, one of them secretly followed, Li Tong.

Seeing Li Tong coming out, Liu Xiu and the three of them frowned in unison.

"Dimension, you don't rest in the room, what are you doing with us?"

Li Tong said solemnly: "My mouth is very tight, and I will not leak out!" ”

Liu Xiu couldn't help but be happy, and asked casually, "Do you know what we're going to do?" ”

"It must have something to do with the barbarians' money!"

Hearing this, Liu Xiu and Long Yuan were shocked. Zhang Ping narrowed his eyes, and his hands were turned behind his back.

Liu Xiu pulled Zhang Ping, whose murderous aura had already leaked out, and asked Li Tong with a pleasant face: "Dimension, why do you say that?" ”

Li Tong Zhengse said: "These barbarians hiding in Baishan have traveled all the way from Yizhou County to Hanzhong County, and they have kidnapped so many women during this period, and they must have robbed a lot of money, but nothing was found on them, and the money must have been secretly hidden by the barbarians." If Lord Liu took us to find this money at that time, everyone would share it equally, and in the end, there would not be much in everyone's hands, so it is best to keep this matter secret, and Lord Liu will find the most trustworthy person to do it secretly. ”

For Liu Xiu, who else could be closer to him than Liu Xiu?

On weekdays, Liu Xiu saw Liu Xiu watching so closely, and he couldn't wait to find a rope to tie him around his waist, but now he asked him to leave his side to perform such a not very important task, which is too abnormal.

Li Tong is not an ordinary rich kid, he has a smart mind and is well-informed, and after thinking about the whole thing carefully, he has already guessed eight or nine and ten.

Hearing this, the murderous intent in Zhang Ping's eyes was even stronger, and the muscles in his body began to be tense, ready to shoot at any time.

Li Tong continued: "Uncle Wen is not a playful person, now that he is in Tin County, even if he goes to visit his old friends, he will not stay up all night, I guess, you should go to find the money that was stolen and hidden by the barbarians!" ”

If it weren't outside, not in full view, Liu Xiu really wanted to slap Li Tong and praise it!

His analysis is methodical, meticulous, and basically consistent with the facts. He pulled down Zhang Ping again, suggesting that he should be calm and not act rashly.

Liu Xiu walked up to Li Tong and asked with a smile: "Dimension, if I say that your analysis is correct, how will you be?" ”

Li Tong's face was straight, he bowed to Liu Xiu, and said: "Uncle Wen not only took good care of me, but also saved my life several times, as long as Uncle Wen believes in me, the dimension will definitely live up to Uncle Wen in this life!" ”

Regardless of whether Liu Xiu is the true son of heaven in the proverb, in short, Li Tong has now recognized Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu is benevolent, righteous, has a city government and scheming, whether it is for people or in the world, Li Tong is very impressed, in Li Tong's view, it is a great blessing in life to be able to follow and assist people like Liu Xiu.

Looking at Li Tong, who maintained a gesture of bowing his hand, Liu Xiu was silent for a few seconds, reached out to support his arm, and said with a smile: "Dimension, you go with us!" ”

After a pause, he admonished, "I hope that this matter is limited to the four of us, and there will be no fifth person. ”

Liu Xiuneng agreed to let Li Tong follow, which was tantamount to completely treating Li Tong as his own.

Li Tong looked excited, bowed to the ground again, and said: "The dimension must strictly keep secrets and never spread them." ”

Zhang Ping's tightly knit brows did not stretch, and he couldn't help but warn in a low voice: "Ah Xiu! ”

Liu Xiu nodded to Zhang Ping with a smile and said, "Brother Ping, I believe in the dimension. ”

After Zhang Ping heard this, he didn't say much, and the hand behind his back also drooped, raised his head and said, "Let's go quickly!" ”

They came out of the White Mountain, and now they are back in the White Mountain.

According to the map drawn by Zhang Ping, they found a small cave at the foot of a mountain in Baishan.

The mouth of this small cave is very small, it looks like the size of a dog hole, and the outside of the cave entrance is covered with grass and vines, which is very tightly blocked, and it is difficult to find this small hole if you don't deliberately look for it.

At this time, it was already dark, and the entrance to the cave was even darker, which looked scary. Liu Xiu took out the fire fold and said, "I'll go and see it first!" ”

Zhang Ping grabbed him and said, "Let me come first!" As he spoke, he took out his fire fold, blew, and then went into the hole little by little.

Liu Xiu, Long Yuan, and Li Tong followed closely behind and also drilled into the cave.

The entrance to the cave is narrow, but the space inside is large, at least it can make people straighten up.

Several people held fire folds and looked around, and at the inside of the cave, on the ground, there were several packages stacked. Everyone stepped forward, opened the packages one by one, and made a move with fire, and everyone had a sense of brightness.

The package is basically full of gold and silver jewelry and coins, even if Zhang Ping, who is old-fashioned on weekdays, now his face is rarely excited.

The four of them squatted down and counted carefully, the gold and silver jewelry alone was estimated to weigh twenty or thirty pounds, and there were also a large number of copper coins and platinum three products.

Zhang Ping took out a dragon coin, first looked at it carefully, then handed it to Liu Xiu, and asked, "Ah Xiu, do you think this can be real?" ”

Liu Xiu took it, but he couldn't see the reason, so he handed it over to Li Tong. The latter looked at it, nodded and said, "That's right! It's true! ”

Zhang Ping looked around and muttered, "How much are these worth?" ”

Li Tong is the most proficient in money, he first looked at the number of coins, then checked the gold and silver jewelry, and said: "Conservative estimates, there are millions of dollars." ”

"A million dollars!" When Zhang Ping heard this, his eyes widened, and Liu Xiu and Long Yuan also showed surprise.

After a while, Liu Xiu came back to his senses and said, "Okay, we have to transfer these belongings to another place immediately." ”

Zhang Ping nodded, and everyone re-tied the opened packages, and then each carried a bag and crawled out along the entrance of the cave, Zhang Ping stayed at the end, handing out the other packages in the cave one after another.

They didn't go far to move all the packages out, digging a pit between two old trees nearby, putting the packages in one by one, and then filling in the soil and burying them.

A few people jumped vigorously on the pit, trampled the soil solidly, and pulled some grass and vines to cover it.

After everything was dealt with, the four of them looked at it again, and they couldn't see anything unusual, so they sat on the ground to rest.

Zhang Ping wiped the sweat from his forehead and sighed: "With this million money, you can help Bosheng achieve a great cause!" ”

Liu Xiu asked curiously, "How did Brother Ping know my eldest brother?" ”

Zhang Ping was silent, and after a long time, when Liu Xiu thought that he would not answer, Zhang Ping said softly: "I once killed a dog official in my hometown and fled to Caiyang, Bosheng didn't suspect that I had a murder case, so he took me in, and from then on, my life is Bosheng's." ”

Liu Xiu showed a look of sudden realization, so that's it! Sometimes he admires his eldest brother.

The eldest brother has always been very envious of those prominent Hercules who can support many customers, but the eldest brother has no money to support the customers, but he can also find another way to collect many people who have committed crimes, and these people are far more loyal and desperate than those who spend money to hire customers.

Zhang Ping and Zhu Yun are good examples.

After resting, Liu Xiu and the others stood up and returned to Tin County.

On the way, Zhang Ping asked: "Ah Xiu, could it be that after we arrived at the county town, the county government would be the same as the county government, ignoring those women, and finally pushing them to us, right?" ”

Liu Xiu smiled bitterly, this possibility is not impossible, he shrugged his shoulders and said: "Wait until you get to the county town to see the situation, and the last one to make up your mind will have to be the eldest brother." ”

Zhang Ping nodded at first, and finally shook his head helplessly.

They were walking out of the mountain, and suddenly, Long Yuan stopped and grabbed Liu Xiu with his hand. Zhang Ping and Li Tong also stopped and looked at Long Yuan in puzzlement.

Long Yuan listened sideways, and said quietly: "It seems that someone is crying." ”

Hearing this, Liu Xiu and the others subconsciously looked around. They were surrounded by woods, pitch black, and they couldn't see their fingers, and when they listened closely, they couldn't hear anything other than the buzzing of insects.

Li Tong shuddered, rubbed his two hands together on his arms subconsciously, and said, "Uncle Zhong, don't scare me, where is the cry in this barren mountains and mountains, and the black lights are blinding?" ”

Long Yuan listened for a while, and said in a firm tone: "There is indeed a cry, over here!" As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed in the direction on his right.

Everyone looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu shook his head and said, "Let's go, let's take a look!" ”

He didn't quite believe in the ghosts and gods, but he believed that Long Yuan had six knowledgeable people, and since Long Yuan heard the cry, he couldn't be wrong.

Long Yuan walked in front, and Liu Xiu and the three followed, walking forward one foot high and one foot low in the woods.

After walking for less than a quarter of an hour, Liu Xiu and the others saw a faint fire in front of them leaking through the cracks in the trees. The four of them slowed down in unison, quietly approaching the past.

The fire came from a clearing in the woods ahead.

In the center of the clearing was a bonfire, and around the bonfire, several barbarians in animal skins sat down, and near them, two women were tied to the ground, and the cries that Long Yuan heard were made by the two of them.

These are nothing, and the most terrifying thing is that it is not the game of the mountains that is roasted on the campfire, but a person, a woman whose head has been cut off.

There was also a wooden stick erected next to the campfire, and at the top of the stick was a shocking head of a woman.

The woman on the campfire had been burned brown, from her chest to her lower abdomen, completely open, her stomach had been hollowed out, and the air was filled with a strange aroma of barbecue.

From time to time, the brute sitting around the campfire got up, cut off a piece of meat with a scimitar, put it in his mouth, and chewed it heavily.

This situation makes people shudder and sicken for a while.
