Chapter 679: Doubts on both sides
Because the vulture and several other devil agents were arranged by Takehito to temporarily search outside, there were no guards around this house for the time being. Therefore, as soon as Takehito heard movement outside, with his professional sensitivity, he judged that someone might be eavesdropping on what they had just said.
He believed that his speed and reaction were also very fast, but when he rushed out, he didn't find anyone. Suspicious, he immediately searched around.
"Was it someone just now?" At this time, Matsui Shiranu, who came out, stared at the big and small eyes and looked around.
"No, maybe I misheard." Although Takehito looked around, he found that there was nothing.
After Wu Ren re-entered the house, Zhao Zilong in the distance left.
"How's it going? Did you find anything? Seeing that Zhao Zilong was back, Niu Geqing ran over as soon as possible.
"Here's it." Zhao Zilong looked around, although there were no devils watching, but there were more than a dozen porters, so he found a place where there was no one and told the other party everything he had just heard.
"Huh? You say the treasure the devil is looking for here? But this seems like a place where treasure is hidden. Niu Geqing was taken aback, although he didn't know much about the treasure, but he still thought that he would definitely hide in the big cave in the morning, and now the devil was looking for it in the village and on the peaceful ground, so how could there be a treasure? Therefore, he even wondered if the devils were crazy looking for treasure.
"Yes, I heard it with my own ears." Zhao Zilong also looked incomprehensible.
"By the way, the little devil has been rummaging through the houses today, and I don't know where to ......" Niu Geqing fell silent as he spoke, he didn't know what to say.
"I guess the little devil is looking for treasure, and if the village can't find it, it should start digging around tomorrow." Zhao Zilong analyzed that he knew the devils too well, and he would not give up until they did things.
"So what do we do? Just let them continue to trample on the homes and land of the common people, and do nothing? Do you want to continue to look for Li Daniu to fool them......"
Niu Geqing frowned and asked, although there is no one in the village, but this is the land of China, if he has the ability, as a Chinese, he can't just stand by, not to mention that he is a hot-blooded military commander.
"No, this will put Li Daniu in danger again." It's just that Niu Geqing's words were vetoed by Zhao Zilong before he finished speaking, and Zhao Zilong didn't want to put Li Daniu in danger, unless he was forced to do so.
Niu Geqing looked at Zhao Zilong, expecting him to give a good plan.
"Observe and observe first, and adapt to the situation." Zhao Zilong always felt that this matter would not end so easily, and he didn't want to expose his identity too early, let alone involve others.
Sure enough, although the devils searched with great fanfare, they did not find the so-called treasure in the village.
The next day, they began digging in the ground, hoping to dig up the treasure.
I dug for two days, three or four kilometers around the village, and still found nothing.
"Martial Instructor, we've been digging here for two whole days and haven't found anything." Matsui Shiliang was a little depressed.
For Wu Ren, how can he not be depressed? It's just that he still has a little fantasy about this village, and always thinks that the treasure should be near here.
"Could it be that the map is wrong? Or did we dig deep enough, so we didn't find it. Wu Ren frowned, he couldn't find the reason, and his heart became irritable.
"The treasures of Changbai Mountain and Qinglong Mountain that we found were found according to the Bronze Tripod map, so this map should be correct, and it is also lost, hard-won, and it should not be wrong." Matsui didn't think it was a mistake on the map, unless it was a fake map, but he knew that it couldn't be a fake.
"Could that be true or false?" Wu Ren suddenly raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise.
He said this because he thought that this treasure location was obtained by combining the maps of the first and second bronze tripods, but because the second bronze tripod was stolen in the cave of Qinglong Mountain, they had launched an army to search for it, but it was unsuccessful, and finally it was Jiro Matsui who handed it over.
And Matsui Jiro said that he picked it up on the road, so Takehito was suspicious.
"No, Jiro Matsui is my nephew, he won't deceive people with a fake bronze tripod, and besides, we have also appraised it, no problem." Matsui Shiranu guessed Takehito's thoughts, and immediately shook his head in disagreement.
"So, if the map is correct, are we not digging deep enough?" Takehito frowned again.
"Martial Instructor, please calm down and think about it carefully, this map is not marked with a cemetery or a cave, it only shows an approximate range.
We dug up what we could find and dig around, and if we had, we would have come out long ago. Matsui felt more and more that the treasure was definitely not in this direction.
"Where would that be? It doesn't say anything on this map. Wu Ren became more and more anxious, and his temper immediately came up.
"Maybe we can let them continue digging and seeing, and in addition, we have to ask Li Daniu, maybe he knows something." Matsui Shiliang knew Takehito's temperament very well, he knew that he was in a hurry, but he felt that being in a hurry could not solve the problem at all, although he himself was in a hurry now.
Both of them were in a hurry, but they couldn't find a better way for a while.
Seeing that the devils have been digging here for two days, they have not dug anything, except for the mud all over the ground.
Zhao Zilong was also anxious to watch from the sidelines for the past two days, and he was even thinking, what did Wu Ren want to dig up, could there be anything else besides treasure? I've been digging for two days, and I haven't dug anything until I have to dig it again.
Since the last time he went to eavesdrop on Takehito's conversation with Matsui Shiliang and was discovered, Takehito has arranged more people around him to guard. Now that Zhao Zilong wants to eavesdrop on some relevant information again, it is simply impossible.
I discussed with Niu Geqing, but the other party couldn't give any advice.
In desperation, Zhao Zilong had no choice but to take the risk to find Li Da Niu and Li Yang quietly, but the two were also anxious, it turned out that they were also curious about where the treasure would be.
Moreover, what they are looking forward to is that after helping the devil find the treasure, they can send back the old woman and Cuihua.
Perhaps it was because the doubts in his heart were not resolved, but Zhao Zilong couldn't sleep for the first time that night.
Grunt...... Grunt......
In the middle of the night, while he was still anxious, he suddenly heard intermittent bird chirping from outside the village.
Zhao Zilong didn't care at first, but then when he heard the bird's call very rhythmic, as if conveying something, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then listened carefully.
