Chapter 136: Temptation

Lu Jinping frowned and said: "If you fight for no reason like this, I really don't have the confidence to be interested in listening, if you really want to fight, go outside to fight for understanding, and come to me again when it's enough." ”

The girl Jiang Xiaozhou said: "I'm sorry sir, it's our rudeness." - Fourth uncle, you go on, the rest of us don't speak, listen to him first, and then we will theorize if it's not right. ”

The other two young men nodded and looked at the old man.

The old man said, "Since this is the case, then I will continue to say that the things we have obtained are very expensive, and we dare not sell them lightly, so as not to get into trouble." With this treasure, of course, we didn't want to fight the battlefield, and we all wanted to enjoy happiness in the future, so the four of us immediately found the bodies of four soldiers who had died in battle, changed our own clothes for the corpses, and cut off the faces of the corpses. Because we all had our names on them, they would all think that the four of us were dead. After making a move, the four of us left the army and went to the beach, where we rented a fishing boat to go to sea. ”

"Because the boss turned out to be a fisherman and could manipulate the boat, after the four of us discussed, in order to prevent one of them from secretly digging up the baby, we came up with a solution, this method is to go from the beach to the place where the treasure is buried, and the four people are responsible for this road in sections. -- When the boss chooses an island, he asks that the island he chooses must be large enough, but it must be an isolated island. And the kind of mountain peaks and caves everywhere. The boss often goes to sea, and there are many such islands in this area. The other three had to be blindfolded, and hid in the cabin to watch each other and not speak until the ship came to the island, and then the three of us tied the boss to the cabin and locked the door. ”

"Next, the second child chooses the peak, the third and the fourth, the fourth is me, and I am the youngest of the four. The second child blindfolded both of us and led us by the hand to find a mountain peak, and he led us around the island countless times. A mountain was chosen. ”

At this time, the third child blindfolded the second child and tied it to a tree, and then the third child pulled me to find a cave on the mountain and entered the entrance of the cave. Then I blindfolded the third child and tied it to a stone pillar, and I took the baby into the cave, and buried the baby in the depths of the cave. Then I came out to the entrance of the cave again, and in the order just now, first untied the blindfold of the third child, and he blindfolded me, and then took me out of the cave to find the second child, and then the second child blindfolded the two of us, and he took us back to the beach. Then the boss blindfolded the three of us and sailed away from the island again. ”

"In this way, all four of us only know one part of the route of this treasure and not the other routes. No one can find this treasure alone. We agreed to take it out and sell it together after twenty years, because we estimate that after twenty years, it should have been calm, and we wrote a blood book, if in these twenty years, no matter who of the four of us died, his share was passed on to his children, and we all swore a poisonous oath to heaven, I am a person who keeps his promise, so. That's when I found them and told them about it. ”

Then, Zhang Yousheng pointed to the leopard-eyed young man who was arguing with him and said, "He is our eldest brother's son named Wang Shiduo, and then pointed to a chubby young man next to him and said: "He is my second brother's son named Yao Dongcai." He also accused the girl and said, "He is the daughter of the third brother, named Jiang Xiaozhou." I came to them when I came back from the island and told them the truth of the matter. But they didn't believe me, and they made a noise, saying that I had swallowed up the treasure and killed their father, and that I had been wronged to death. ”

"Sir, we've heard that you've solved cases like a god. We are all from the same state, we are your people, only you can find out my grievances for me, because this matter can not be big, once the trouble goes out, I am afraid that the four of us will not have any good fruit to eat, not only can not get a penny, but also have to eat a lawsuit, so I thought about it and asked the lord to help, as long as the lord can find out the truth of the matter, we are willing to pay the lord a reward after the treasure is sold, I don't know what you think? ”

Wang Shiduopi smiled and said: "Sir, don't underestimate this money, my father told me at the beginning, this treasure is priceless, don't hide it from you, this thing is a Khitan treasure that can be regarded as a national treasure, even if we sell it at a low price and give it to the lord, it will be enough for you to enjoy food and drink for several lifetimes." ”

Lu Jinping smiled and said, "If you tell me this secret matter directly, aren't you afraid that I will arrest you and punish you?" It is a great sin for you to steal the spoils of war. ”

Zhang Yousheng laughed with him and said respectfully: "The lord shouldn't do such a big thing, in that case, the lord won't be able to get a penny of benefits!" It is not a great credit to catch four people who share the spoils of war privately, and at the moment we don't know where this treasure is, and even if we are caught, we can't be asked, because we don't know, and we have to be helped by the lord to find it. What Yao Dongcai said just now is not an exaggeration at all, because I used to be a friend in a jewelry store, I know that this thing is worth a lot of money, to tell you the truth, the general who protects the treasure is a famous Khitan general, and it is also a coincidence, he was seriously injured when he met us, so he picked up a bargain for the four of us. In contrast, it is good for everyone for the lord to help us find this thing, so why bother to do something that is harmful to others and not good for ourselves? The lord is a smart man, and I believe that the lord will make a good choice. ”

Lu Jinping smiled and said: "There is some truth in listening to you say this, indeed, it is no good for me to report you, and it can be divided into a layer to help you find the treasure, if it is really the national treasure of the Khitan Kingdom, it is really priceless, and Yicheng is indeed a very attractive price." ”

Zhang Yousheng smiled and said: "But isn't it, each of the four of us is divided into two and a half layers." ”

Lu Jinsheng said: "According to what you just said, you can't find this thing, you let me help you find it, how can I find it?" ”

Zhang Yousheng said: "We are all from the same state, the ability of the lord is a household name in the same state, I heard that the lord is good at a special method of solving the case, can figure out who is the murderer, this case the three of them have always suspected that I swallowed this baby, although there is no government intervention, but it is also my unjust case, I hope the lord can clear my grievances, at the same time, we hope that the lord can use your method to find this important guarantee, we are all beneficial." ”

Lu Jinping nodded and said, "You guys go on first, how did they disappear?" ”

Yao Dongcai and the others turned their heads to look at the old man Zhang Yousheng and said: "Only he knows about this matter, because he went to pick up the baby with the father of the three of us, but unfortunately our father did not come back, and he came back alone, which can't help but make us suspicious, so it doesn't mean that he must have swallowed up the money, but if this matter is not investigated, we as juniors will also be uneasy, so I want to ask the lord to find out the facts of the case and find the baby." ”

Lu Jinping looked at Zhang Yousheng and said, "You tell me what happened first." ”

Zhang Yousheng said: "Here's the thing, after we hid our things on the island, we returned to the coast, and we agreed that four people would live on the coast for twenty years, supervise each other, and no one was allowed to leave the village without permission, otherwise, the other three could use violence to imprison him." - The lord is not afraid of your jokes, the three of us are brothers and sisters, but the temptation of this treasure is too great, we can only do this. ”

"People die for money, birds die for food, this has been the case since ancient times, there is nothing strange? How have you spent these twenty years, you go on. ”

Zhang Yousheng looked embarrassed, and then said: "The four of us used the military salary saved from the army to buy a fishing boat, fishing for a living, going to sea together and coming back together, and selling at the market together, just like that, although we can't live a life of abundant food and clothing, there is no problem in feeding four people." ”

"I see, you move on."

Zhang Yousheng continued: "When we arrived in the village, we wrote a letter to the family, told the whole story, and swore a poisonous oath that if any of the four died in an accident in twenty years, we would pass on his share to his children and grandchildren. But in the past 20 years, we have not had any contact with our family for this baby. The family only knew that we were dead, because the clothes we had replaced with the corpses we had found had our names on them, and the army must have reported the news of our deaths to the family. In the twentieth year, we wrote a letter to our family telling us that we were going to pick up the treasure, and told us our respective addresses and family circumstances, and then we transcribed the letter in four copies, signed and signed it, wrote the address, and sent it to the family. Then the four of us went out to sea to the island. ”

"Because they went to sea together, the four of them didn't bring a sword, so they prevented someone from suddenly poisoning and killing the others to swallow the treasure alone. If it's freehanded, the four of us are not very good at martial arts, and if we fight empty-handed, we will not dare to start, so the four of us ......"

Lu Jinping smiled and said, "You guys really racked your brains for this baby, just prevent others from swallowing the baby alone." ”

Zhang Yousheng smiled bitterly and said: "No way, people are poor and short-lived, we are also poor, this treasure is too tempting for us, we really dare not trust others easily, let alone sworn brothers, even if it is a father and son, I will beware of the other party's poison." ”

"That's right, let's move on." (To be continued.) )
