(2-in-1 chapter, no more.) ）

When Boss Tie woke up, there was silence around him, he was lying on the ground with his mouth chewing mud, his wrist was still in pain, his head and face were cold, and he was obviously splashed with cold water.

"Oops, oops, come and save me." Iron Elder groaned loudly.

"Boss, bear with me, we can't protect ourselves, we can't save you." The voice of his most intimate brother Hu Wulang came from his side.

The iron boss struggled to turn over, and at a glance, seven or eight brothers were lying on the ground next to him with blue noses and swollen faces, ropes tied to their hands, and not far from the campfire, the three guys who pretended to be ghosts were talking in a low voice.

"The brothers have all missed?" Iron Boss asked.

"yes. How can there be any power to resist, the little bald man and a few of them resisted a little harder, and they were directly broken their necks, boss, accept your fate, today we are planted. These three people are ruthless and kill people without blinking, they are really more ruthless than ghosts, admit it, boss, don't lose your life. ”

Tie Boss was frightened and said angrily: "Pingsu told you to practice kung fu more, one by one is lazy, and you have the strength to go to the restaurant to play with the female watch, let's plant it today, more than a dozen people have been cooked by three people, and now it's all over." ”

Hu Wulang smacked his lips and said: "It's all this treasure that hurt us, damn it, I don't know if there is a treasure, maybe it's a lie, Ma Debi and our family found it from our grandfather's generation and didn't find it today, wasted a few lifetimes of time, and we will die here today." Knowing this, Lao Tzu should have left a future. ”

The iron boss scolded: "Shut up, is there any use in talking about this now? ”

When the iron boss dragged his broken hand and his brothers to complain to himself, Wang Yuan by the bonfire was also complaining about the master and apprentice.

"Well, why do you kill? Seven lives were lost in an instant, and I couldn't even stop it by shouting, hey. ”

"Don't these people deserve to die? Think of the skeletons in the barren grass, it is the evil done by these people, when they pretend to be gods and kill others, they should know that there is a day. Could it be that you still sympathize with them? Gongsun Lan said dissatisfied.

Li Xin'er also said: "That is, this group of people must be killed, otherwise how will they live here in the future?" They are innocent of death. ”

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "I'm not saying that they shouldn't be killed, nor do I sympathize with them, it's just that they are still useful." They are naturally hateful, but there are other punishments available, so why take their lives? ”

Gongsun Lan said: "What's the use of these people? ”

Wang Yuan said: "They are all strong laborers, aren't we worried that no one will help us work?" Half of the dozen or so strong laborers sent to me were killed by you. How good would it be to help us cut the grass and fill the soil to build a house? Ay. ”

The master and apprentice were stunned and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier." ”

Wang Yuan said: "I said, the rise of your fighting, I can't even stop it next to me." ”

Gongsun Lan smacked her lips and said, "Fortunately, there are still nine people left, and these people will not be killed." ”

Wang Yuan sighed and said: "These people don't know if they can still work, if they are seriously injured, they are still useless, and I have to trouble you to relieve them." ”

Li Xin'er said: "Just two broken arms, the others are skin injuries, and they should be able to work." ”

Wang Yuan said: "That's okay, I thank your subordinates for their mercy, let's go and see them and ask questions, the leader poured cold water and woke up, and was scolding his mother over there." ”

Li Xin'er raised her eyebrows and said, "He still dares to scold?" I went and slaughtered him. ”

Wang Yuan looked at Li Xin'er in a daze, Li Xin'er blinked and said, "Okay, okay, you are in charge." ”

The three of them came over from the fire, and the nine people who were lying on the ground with their hands and feet tied immediately became nervous, and they squirmed in panic and gathered together to look at the three of them. Wang Yuan waved his hand and smiled, "Are you okay?" ”

“……”

"It seems that you are not happy, but I have good news to announce that from now on, your lives have been saved, and we will not kill any of you again." Wang Yuan smiled.

Everyone was ecstatic and thanked them.

Wang Yuan said: "No thanks, life can be saved, but there are conditions." Before I talk about the conditions, I have something to ask clearly, and you must answer them truthfully. I didn't force it if I didn't want to say it, as if he automatically gave up the chance to live, the black and white impermanence around me asked for his life. ”

Everyone hurriedly said: "Know everything, know everything." ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "Very good, everyone is very cooperative, then it will be easy to do." I know that you have harmed a lot of people by pretending to be gods and ghosts here, what are you looking for here? Can you tell us about it? ”

Everyone was silent, communicating with each other out of the corner of their eyes, and no one seemed willing to speak first.

Wang Yuan frowned and said: "I reiterate the conditions, if you want to live, answer honestly, otherwise it will be regarded as giving up the chance to live, you don't say that I am not reluctant, you will all become corpses before dawn, anyway, there are many pits here, I can be kind to let you choose a satisfactory tomb." ”

Everyone's faces turned pale, and no one spoke, Wang Yuan sighed and stood up to see if he was leaving, and the white impermanence hand beside him also seemed to hold the hilt of the sword, and finally someone shouted: "I said, damn, it took Lao Tzu thirty years for this thing that I don't know if there is, and I don't know if it's true or false, and I have to give my life for this false secret, I won't do it." ”

"Hu Wulang, you have thought clearly, this is a secret that our five families have maintained for a hundred years." The iron boss is the way of the Yin Survey.

Wang Yuan frowned and looked at Tie Lao Dao: "It's a bad thing for you to be here for a long time, and you are still stubborn when you get to this step, Twelve Niang, how do you say that this kind of person is generally dealt with in our Luoyi Sect?" ”

Li Xin'er said: "Fill boiling water, put on a stick, and whip it." ”

Wang Yuan said: "This is too ordinary, I thought there were other tricks, so let's have an idea, let's bury him alive." ”

It is naturally impossible to be buried alive, Wang Yuan still wants to keep this guy as a coolie, although he has broken his hand, but he is still tall and strong, and it is most suitable to do coolies, there is a lot of work waiting to punish this person in this house. However, it is obviously not okay to keep this guy here to threaten others, and everyone else is afraid of him, so he must be isolated and then questioned.

Wang Yuan tied Tie Boss tightly with the straw rope he had kneaded during the day, grabbed a handful of thatch to plug his mouth, and asked Li Xin'er to work together to drag him to the side into the darkness. Iron Boss thought that he was really going to be buried alive, and his body struggled violently like a broken gecko's tail, so that Li Xin'er took the trouble to raise her foot and kick him in the temple to knock him unconscious, and then dragged him to the side of the tree and tied it firmly to the tree.

Turning around, Wang Yuan's next question went extremely smoothly, and eight people rushed to answer in one sentence, for fear that Wang Yuan would think that he wanted to hide it and be buried alive. There were many people talking, although it was very messy, but soon Wang Yuan still understood the ins and outs of the matter.

The situation is not much different from what Wang Yuan and Gongsun Lan guessed yesterday, this group of people is indeed looking for the treasure buried by Liu Wenjing in this Liu mansion; In that year, Liu Wenjing led the army to break the Sui army to pacify the land west of Xin'an, and when the class returned to the dynasty, he secretly buried the huge wealth looted after the war in his mansion. No one knew about this matter except for Liu Wenjing's five personal guards.

Before Liu Wenjing was exterminated, he hastily ordered his five guards to escort his youngest son to escape, and told one of the five guards a secret about the treasure buried in the house, the purpose was to let the five guards contain each other, and after the young son became an adult, the five people needed to inform the young master of the treasure secret, so that the young master would take out the treasure and ensure that their children and grandchildren were safe.

But what Liu Wenjing didn't expect was that the five guards under his command knew that the treasure was huge, and they became important criminals arrested by the imperial court because of Liu Wenjing's involvement. Finally, Tie Wentong, the boss of the guards, moved his heart and tested the other guards with words, who knew that the other guards also had the same thoughts, and this time they hit it off, and agreed to secretly dig out the treasure and divide the five families incognito as the rich man of the land.

So the five once loyal guards killed the young master, and one night, the five people coaxed the young master to sleep and then stabbed the young master into the body with knives at the same time.

The reason why the five of them did this was not because they were afraid that one person would not be able to kill the teenage child, but to ensure that no one in the five families could get out of the relationship, which showed that the five guards were actually wary of each other. In this case, of course, none of the five people wanted to tell the clue of the treasure they knew, so that they would lose their bargaining chips to clamp each other. When the stalemate was at a stalemate, Tie Wentong made an agreement that the five families would search for treasure together, and each family would draw the scope according to their own clues, but the five people must be present together during the excavation.

This method temporarily united the five families, at this time the Liu Mansion was bought by the wealthy Chen family in Luoyang, and the five people hid their identities and entered the Chen family as a nursing home, and after secretly looking for a few months, they found that it was not a way to find it, and they could not show their skills. After discussion, it was decided to force the master of the Chen family away, and it was best to leave the house vacant, so he began to drug and harm people.

As for the idea of pretending to be a god and pretending to be a ghost, it is not the original of these five families, but after the Chen family was killed a few people, the Chen family invited a Taoist priest to come to see feng shui, and the Taoist priest said nonsense that there was evil spirit in the house, and he was inspired by the five people after knowing it, so he planned to make a plan and wear a ghost robe every night to make waves in the house. Finally, the Chen family had to move out of this place, and the reputation of the ghost house also spread, after which anyone dared to approach, they were scared away or killed directly by five people pretending to be ghosts, so far no one dared to approach this house again, and it became the first taboo place in Jing'an Fang.

However, things in the world are not wishful thinking, and it was thought that when the house was emptied, the treasure would be at your fingertips, but the truth was extremely disappointing. Five guards spent their lives searching the mansion and found no hidden treasure; Even later, when the five of them abandoned their previous suspicions and wrote out all the sentences they knew, the five of them shared the details, but they still didn't have the slightest clue.

After the death of the five people one after another, the secret of the treasure was passed on to future generations from generation to generation, and the five families seemed to be cursed by this treasure, and the sustenance of everyone's life was to find this treasure. More than a hundred years have passed, and this generation is already the fourth generation, and the gang in front of them has been tossing in this house for twenty or thirty years, and they are still empty-handed. From their ancestors to the present day, they have dug up every part of the house, and the slightly thicker walls that seemed to hide things have been torn down, and the ground has been almost torn down, and the treasure is like a joke, forever unknown.

After listening to these people's words, Wang Yuangong, Sun Lan and Li Xin'er were all speechless, and even a little embarrassed. These people naturally do not deserve sympathy, and from the time their ancestors killed their masters, these five families have fallen into a terrible cycle. It's like God gave them a curse to cling to it, but people can't find that treasure for generations.

"Do you really believe in treasure?" Wang Yuan asked.

Hu Wulang, who spoke most actively, said gloomily: "We have to believe the secret passed down by our ancestors. But in fact, I don't believe it much in recent years. In the past few years, we have been digging for three or five days a month, and the rest of the time we have been living on our own, and we basically have lost hope. When the crowd was gathered, there were also people who were reluctant to come, but because not coming would mean leaking the news and suffering retaliation from the other four families, they had to come here. ”

Gongsun Lan said coldly: "Have you ever killed someone?" ”

Hu Wulang was silent for a long time and nodded slowly: "Killed, we were very excited when we heard about the treasure when we were young, during that time we were soaked in this house all the year round, and when someone broke in, we pretended to be a ghost and killed him, this is also the will of the ancestors, and we must not let people know about the treasure, even if it is to kill people." ”

Gongsun Lan said lightly: "Then I killed those of you and they deserved it, you killed people and didn't even collect the bones, I'm afraid there are a lot of violent corpses in the surrounding wilderness, you all deserve to die." ”

Hu Wulang said guiltily: "At the beginning, I was arrogant, and the purpose of exposing the corpse was also to scare away those who dared to come, but later the wild grass became denser and deeper, and I couldn't find it if I wanted to collect the corpse for them." ”

There was silence around for a while, and the descendants of the five guards were speechless, not knowing whether they felt guilty or worried that Gongsun Lan would be angry because of this.

Wang Yuan suddenly said: "What is the clue to the treasure?" Can you tell? ”

Gongsun Lan frowned and said, "Why are you asking this?" Don't get lost, it's obviously a non-existent thing. ”

Li Xin'er also said: "Erlang, don't be obsessed with money, the fate of these five families is the retribution of the wealth fan." ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "I'm just curious, since Liu Wenjing left the secret of the hidden treasure with a lot of care, why can't he find this treasure when he has a clear clue?" Why did Liu Wenjing deceive these five guards? It doesn't make sense. ”

Hu Wulang said: "These five sentences are actually not a secret in our five families, except that they cannot be passed on, everyone in the descendants of the five families knows it." They will be informed once they become adults, but it has no effect, and there is no information about the treasure at all. ”

Wang Yuan said: "It means I can't know?" ”

Hu Wulang smiled and said, "If you must know, it's not that you can't say it." ”

The implication is naturally that he refuses to say it, hoping that Wang Yuan will not be difficult to force others. Wang Yuan didn't care about this, and said with a smile: "I don't force you, maybe some of you are willing to take the initiative to tell me, I don't know, I just think it's a pastime, but I don't have any interest in the treasure of Laoshizi left by your ancestors." If you really don't want to satisfy my curiosity, you will take your secrets and rot in your stomach. ”

Hu Wulang listened to the words badly, and what 'rotting in your stomach with your secrets' sounded like 'you killed you without saying anything, and let you rot with your secrets'.

Hu Wulang saw the opportunity very much, and turned his head to look at the people around him, as if he had the intention of inquiring. Everyone knew that this was a difficult time today, and this secret was difficult to keep, so they lived their lives first, so they said: "Tell him, it's useless anyway." At this point, there is nothing to hide. ”

Hu Wulang sighed and said, "That's it, even so, I won't hide it anymore." After that, he knelt on the ground and prayed: "The ancestors are above, the children and grandchildren are not filial, and the secrets that the ancestors do not pass on will be told to outsiders today. ”

Wang Yuan smiled and watched him play, and after he finished praying, he smiled and said, "Wait a minute, I'll take the paper and write it down." ”

Gongsun Lan frowned, as if she was dissatisfied. Wang Yuan ignored her dissatisfaction, turned around and found a blank piece of paper in his belongings, took a charcoal branch and came back, "Say it." ”

At that moment, Hu Wulang settled down and slowly said five sentences: The son of Zizhong, Po Suo. The moon rises. Brilliant people. The spiritual rain is zero, and the other is the one who lives. Under the spring, soak the bud. Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the river island.

Wang Yuan wrote these words on the paper, his brows furrowed into a pimple, this treasure secret language is simply incomprehensible, and these five sentences are completely unrelated, if it is a poem, it is not a sentence in a poem at all, and the meaning described is completely irrelevant.

"What kind of secret language is this? The east sentence and the west sentence have nothing to do with the treasure, are you sure you remember correctly? Or...... You don't want to tell me at all? Wang Yuan couldn't help but say.

"Heaven and earth are proof, since I, Hu Wulang, said it, how could I say it casually? If there is a nonsense, teach me that Hu Wulang's whole family will not die well. Hu Wulang saw Wang Yuan's suspicion and swore loudly.

How could Wang Yuan swear an oath, and silently pulled another person to a distance and ordered him to repeat it, but the man recited it like a stream, and it was still these few words; Wang Yuan pulled two more people to confirm, and sure enough, it was still these few sentences, and Wang Yuan believed that this was the real treasure secret language.

After thinking about the bonfire for a long time, Wang Yuan didn't want to waste any more time, so he returned to a few people and said: "I have bought this mansion, now this is my property, you are all damned people, tonight I can slaughter you all and throw them into the wild grass, but God has the virtue of a good life, I want to spare your lives, but I can't trust you, what do you say?" ”

The eight people kowtowed and begged for mercy, gambling curses, and swore that they would change their minds from now on, and today's events would never be spread to the outside world. Wang Yuan waved his hand and interrupted: "I don't believe what you say, your ancestors hurt people in this house, if I let you go today, it is difficult to ensure that you will not turn back to deal with me." I can not kill you, but you need to prove it by your actions, until I think that you really want to change your mind, and I will let you go. ”

Several people hurriedly said: "How to prove it, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Wang Yuan said: "It's very simple, you need to make a contract to sell yourself as a slave to become my slave, and the time is not long, three years is enough, if you can be conscientious and diligent in three years, you will be free." Of course, if there is an outstanding performance, the deadline can be waived, and I can even let you go for a month, everything depends on your performance. ”

Everyone was stunned.

Wang Yuan said: "It is risky for me to keep you by my side, so from tomorrow I will put shackles on you, and from tomorrow you must completely obey my orders, and you must not disobey any detail." But if one of you has the intention of rebelling or secretly causing trouble or trying to escape, all the others will sit down and die. Got it? ”

Everyone had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Wang Yuan said again: "Of course, I will provide you with good food and drink, and raise you fat and strong, you should be glad to have a generous master like me, but don't live up to my trust, these two people around me don't blink, you have seen it with your own eyes." Not much to say, it's dawn soon, you should still stare at it for a while, there will be a lot of things to do as soon as the morning dawns, and I look forward to your performance. ”
