Zheng County Ancient Cave Chapter 20 Gold and Silver Lost

The poisoner struggled in pain for nearly a cup of tea before falling to the ground, and then disappeared. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info I let out a deep breath when I saw that the danger was gone, maybe because I was too tired, maybe because I felt like it was over, and I felt like I was about to fall asleep. I hurriedly patted Merlin beside me and said, "Get out of here." As soon as I said that, I fell asleep, and I didn't know anything about the rest of the matter. In the dimness, I faintly heard someone calling my name, and then I felt a jolt.

When I woke up again, I was already in the carriage, and Zhao Zhuo was sitting next to me, and it seemed that we were coming out. Then Zhao Zhuobian told me about what happened after I fell asleep, Mo Lin began to collect the gold and silver treasures in the ancient tomb after I fell asleep, and even the female corpse lying on the jade platform did not let go, as the saying goes, fools have foolish blessings, and greedy people also have the blessings of greedy people, he groped for a long time on the female corpse, and found a small bronze box with very chic workmanship.

When Zhao Zhuo handed the small bronze box into my hands, I felt that this ancient cave expedition was not over. The box was exquisitely crafted, and the words engraved on it were like nothing I had ever seen before. Even the box itself can be turned back and forth like a Rubik's cube, and my first reaction is that this is a trap box, and from my years of experience, this is either a peerless treasure or a tomb map, and I have to go back and study it carefully.

I put the box aside, looked at the piles of gold, silver and jewelry in the corner and asked, "There are so many King Qin, I will definitely be very satisfied."

"What Childe said is that although these treasures are less than one-tenth of the ancient tombs, they are enough to feed the army, but they can't bring out so much in a hurry." Zhao Zhuo replied.

"Where are we now"? I asked, pulling the curtain open on my side, looking at the scenery outside.

Zhao Zhuo also lifted the curtain on his side, looked carefully outside, and then said, "You have entered the realm of the Qin Kingdom, and you can reach Hangu Pass after a short walk."

"Hangu Pass is still some distance from Xianyang City, it's getting late today, let's rest in Hangu Pass."

"Yes. Childe".

In this way, we choose to rest overnight in Hangu Pass, and then go on the road, Hangu Pass, according to the plateau in the west, the Jiejian in the east, the Qinling Mountains in the south, and the Yellow River in the north, here was the ancient battlefield where the war horses neighed, since Qin Xiaogong, the soldiers and horses of the six countries have never entered the Hangu Pass. It can really be said that it is a husband who is not open, and according to the letter, Gu Qin is worry-free.

When we came to Hangu Pass, it was already sunset, and Hangu Pass had already closed the city gate, and after I showed my token, Chen Yi, the general of Hangu Pass, opened the city gate for us. Chen Yi arranged a place for us to live, but just in case, we did not choose to put the gold, silver and jewelry on the carriage in the inn, but chose to let Chen Yi send someone to take strict care of it in the name of tribute, but I didn't expect something to happen.

The next day, just after dawn, I heard Merlin's voice outside the house in my sleep, "Childe, something is wrong, something has happened."

I got up from the bed and stretched, and I fell asleep on the bed without even taking off my clothes because I was so tired last night. I opened the door and asked drowsily, "What happened so early in the morning, so noisy?"

I was just about to turn around and go back to my room when I heard Merlin behind me say anxiously, "Those, those gold, silver and jewels are gone!"

"What do you say"! Merlin's words instantly sobered me up, and I hurried to the place where the gold and silver jewels were kept, followed by Merlin.

"What the hell is going on, isn't it guarded"? I asked Merlin behind me as I ran wildly.

Mo Lin hurriedly replied, "I don't know too much, it was the next person who informed me, and Zhao Zhuo has already passed first."

I didn't expect that such a big thing would happen, if the gold, silver and jewelry obtained from the theft of the ancient tomb were lost, the King of Qin would definitely blame it, not only that, but the military salary of the front-line army would not be able to be supplied, how could this happen, although our operation this time is not a secret, but it will not be like this.

After a while, I went to the guard's room, and there were four guards' bodies at the door. I didn't go to check the body first, but ran directly into the house, which was already empty, and Zhao Zhuo was standing there looking for clues.

"What the hell is going on"? I asked hurriedly.

Zhao Zhuo greeted him and said, "Childe, the two bags are all gone, I have just checked, and the guards outside the house were all killed with one sword, and there was no sign of resistance, so I am sure that there is more than one murderer, and the knife skills are also very good."

Hearing Zhao Zhuo say this, I took a closer look at the house, there was nothing left by the murderer in the house, it seemed that these people had been eyeing these gold, silver and jewelry early in the morning.

"I don't quite understand why those people know what we're carrying." I walked slowly to the window and looked out of it. "Zhao Zhuo, do you say that they will always follow us."

Zhao Zhuo shook his head and replied, "Don't worry, Childe, I have ordered Lord Chen Yi to investigate door to door, and I have also instructed him to call all the strangers who entered the pass yesterday, if there are really people who follow us from beginning to end, they will definitely be found by General Chen Yi."

Zhao Zhuo's answer made me breathe a sigh of relief, for me, this should be considered a kind of comfort, but everything should be prepared for the worst, if you really can't find it, King Qin will blame it, and the thief faction is likely to be wiped out.

Just then, the noise outside the house pulled me back from the world of thought, and I hurried out to see four soldiers arguing with two men in cloth clothes outside.

I hurried up to me and asked, "What's going on?"

When the soldier saw that it was me, he hurriedly surrendered his hand and said, "Lord Qiqi, there were only these two strangers who entered Hangu Pass yesterday, General Chen Yi asked us to bring these two people, and I asked the two to hand over the sword to me, but these two people did not obey."

I set my eyes on these two people, although they were wearing cloth clothes, but they felt a little familiar, and when I looked at them carefully, I realized that these two people were none other than Princess Gaoyang and her female guards, who were disguised as men, which surprised me.

"Princess Gaoyang, how could it be you". I hurriedly knelt down and bowed my hands, and when they saw me like this, the others knelt down as well.

When Princess Gaoyang saw that I recognized him, she no longer hid her identity, but put on a haughty look and reprimanded, "Su Hu, you are so bold, you dare to catch this princess."
