It took about half a column of incense to dig up about eight minutes before digging out the small wooden box containing gold. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Chen Yuansheng wiped the soil from the wooden box, unlocked the lock, lifted the lid, and there was a cloth bag lying inside. Pulling open the heavy cloth bag, a few golden beans popped out of the bag.

Fengzi bent down to pick up the golden bean that fell at his feet, pinched it with his index finger and thumb and stood up, took it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully for a while, and muttered out such a sentence, "The owner of the village, this gold doesn't look special." It's yellow, but why is it so valuable? ”

"For it is little, if the earth were full of gold. It's worthless. Chen Yuansheng explained in a few words.

"Less. Less is worth the money. There are few big insects, so why are big insects worthless? Fengzi touched the back of his head and asked.

"Fengzi, you are so stupid, there are few big insects, this is all over the mountains, I don't know how many big insects there are. Otherwise, how can someone be eaten from time to time? Huzi retorted.

"Compared to others, there are indeed fewer tigers, and even fewer can be killed. Otherwise, why are tiger skins and tiger bones so valuable. Chen Yuansheng continued.

"It seems like that's the case." Huzi touched his head again, revealing a big smile, "Village master, I'm just not smart, like a stone, don't be angry." ”

"I'm not angry, just ask if you don't understand something, it's good, it's better than pretending to understand." Chen Yuansheng said, glancing at Huzi, who lowered his head in shame.

Looking at Huzi's appearance, Chen Yuansheng shook his head and smiled, he looked up at the sun, "Okay, I won't tell you, it's time to go on the road, otherwise I don't know if I can come back today." ”

He put the scattered golden beans into the belt compartment, tightened the mouth of the cloth bag containing the remaining gold, and put it back in the box.

Then, give the box to Xiaoyu and let her take it with her.

When Xiao Yu took the box, her hands trembled a little, and she almost knocked over the wooden box, she didn't expect that the owner of the village would actually hand over a box of gold to herself for safekeeping.

"Owner, this ...... I ......," she said, her voice trembling

"It's okay, you take it, you take it, I'm relieved. There are no outsiders near the cottage, so there will be no danger. Besides, you're in charge of cooking the fire, so it's not so cumbersome to carry it with you. If you let Futong Xu Jiang take them with you, if you don't say anything, it will be easy to fall. Chen Yuansheng comforted Xiaoyu while explaining why he handed it over to her for safekeeping.

"Owner, I know, I will protect the gold. As long as I live, no one will be able to snatch the gold from me! Xiao Yu tilted her head, staring at Chen Yuansheng's eyes with big smart eyes and reassuring, her face that looked rough in the wind and sun was also a little red because of excitement.

Wang Er, who was in the distance, walked quickly towards the mountain, as if he was not hungry, he shouted like chicken blood, "Owner of the village, the car is ready, let's go." ”

"I'm leaving, everyone is doing a good job today, and in the evening, there will be rice to eat!" Chen Yuansheng shouted at the villagers behind him.

Just as Chen Yuansheng finished speaking, he wanted to turn around and walk in the direction of Wang Er, but he almost bumped into Futong.

"Take this." Futong said, holding a piece of rat skin in his hand, which was very complete, and he could still see the shape of a mouse, "You put this on your shoulder." ”

"Got it." Chen Yuansheng took the rat skin, patted Futong's shoulder, and walked down the mountain.

He trusts the members of the cottage so much, not blindly. Now the members of the cottage are absolutely obedient to what he says. Even, even if they are allowed to die, they will not be ambiguous.

The reason why this is the case is the credit of the old village owner.

Although the old village owner didn't say it, Chen Yuansheng searched the memory in his mind, but found that those who dared to contradict the old village owner did not live for a week after the confrontation.

The bloody purge may be an important means for the owner of the village to maintain the obedience of the members of the cottage.

If it weren't for the extreme trust in the remaining cottage members, the old village owner would not have buried the gold shallowly in the backyard, and made the cottage members known to everyone.

I really don't know if the old village owner is extremely confident or arrogant.

Chen Yuansheng asked himself, he didn't have the courage to use this method to consider people's hearts.

Wang Er walked excitedly in front, chattering and talking, not at all like a person who had been hungry for a long time.

At the foot of the mountain, behind Lieber, there was a two-wheeled car. From the bearings to the body, everything is made of wood.

If this car is put in the modern era, it will be a very strong work of art, and it will not look out of class anywhere.

However, from a practical point of view, it will obviously not be very easy to use without modern technology as a support.

"Owner of the village, let's go? Do you sit in the car, or do you follow on foot? Liberty asked, pulling the rope on his back.

Chen Yuansheng looked at Li Bo, looked at the rope he was pulling, looked at the wooden cart with the rope attached, and then looked at the three-pole wooden gun and two gourds filled with water placed on the cart.

He pointed to the car and said, "Uncle Li, you worked hard to pull the cart and let me sit on it, are you scolding me?" Not only will I not be able to sit today, but I will also pull the cart with you. ”

"Don't." Li Bo hurriedly said, "Owner of the village, how dare I scold you." When you were a child, you used to pull a car, and you didn't do anything other than pull the car. Don't pull the car, just go, we're different. ”

Chen Yuansheng looked at Li Bo and didn't refute in a hurry, but felt a little sad. He paused and said, "Let's go first, and when you're tired, we'll change me." ”

"Okay!" After listening to Chen Yuansheng's words, Li Bo immediately pulled the car and moved as if he was afraid that Chen Yuansheng would rob him.

The road was potholed, the wooden carts creaked, and the speed of progress was not fast, but when I turned around, I found that the hill where the cottage was located had disappeared from the end of vision.

No one said much along the way, even Wang Er, who was excited.

"It's my turn." Chen Yuansheng said and asked Wang Er to stop, let him let go of the handlebars, and loosen the rope wrapped around his body.

Li Bo saw that Chen Yuansheng had insisted on pulling the cart and did not stop him, thinking that Chen Yuansheng, who had not done much hard work and had suffered a lot, would retreat.

The car was very heavy, it was difficult to start, and I worked hard from the waist to barely let the car move.

Chen Yuansheng's face was flushed, and he didn't speak, recalling the actions of Li Bo and Wang Er just now, and pulled the car hard.

The sun was rising, and the yellowish mist was slowly rising and dissipating in the sunlight.

The earth is still half-dead and barren, and half of the tender yellow sprouts have just emerged from the crooked-necked poplar tree, slightly embellished with this sick old tree.

"Owner, let me come." Li Bo persuaded. He originally thought that Chen Yuansheng would retreat if he tried to pull the car, but he didn't think that the distance he insisted on was farther than himself and Wang Er.

Chen Yuansheng remained silent and continued to pull the car.

Wang Er, who was helping with the cart on the side, raised his head, pointed ahead and said, "Owner of the village, you see there is a City God Temple. We'll be able to rest there. ”

Chen Yuansheng glanced up and nodded. Li Bo looked at Chen Yuansheng's appearance, and had no choice but to help push the cart harder.

When they arrived at the temple, they stopped to go in and rest for a while, but they found a ragged and withered woman sitting at the temple gate, with a child in her arms.

The child was quiet and did not cry or scream, Li Bo stepped forward, stretched out his finger to probe his nose, and shook his head, "Dead." ”

Chen Yuansheng looked at it stunned for a while, sighed, and then said, "Bury it." ”
