Chapter 441: Treasure Thief
"Looks like this is a Jedi!" Li Canghai frowned, he looked up at the steep cliffs on both sides, and subconsciously touched his nose.
There are steep cliffs on both sides, and the valley is full of fog, and I don't know how high it is, if a stone falls from it, I have to smash it into a meatloaf.
Li Canghai squinted his eyes, trying to see through the dense fog and see the stars in the sky so as to identify the position below, but suddenly found that a black mass fell from above.
Li Canghai was startled and hurriedly dodged to the side.
I saw that the thing was like a meteor falling from the sky, with the momentum of thunder, roaring and landing in the direction where he was standing.
"Damn! What the hell is this? Li Canghai scolded in a lost voice.
Just as Li Canghai wanted to walk over to check, a rope suddenly hung down from above.
Li Canghai's heart moved, and he hurriedly extinguished the torch and hid behind a nearby boulder.
Not long after, a figure fell down the rope into the canyon.
As soon as the man landed on his feet, he took out the fire breaker, lit the torch stuck in his waist, and then picked up the previous falling object and walked towards the depths of the canyon.
When Li Canghai saw the man, he was a little surprised, and after thinking about it, he cautiously followed.
I saw that the man carried something on his back to a cave in the canyon, and then walked in.
Li Canghai followed the cave, hid in the distance and looked carefully, and found that there were many things hidden in the cave, including several wooden boxes.
The man put the package down, then took something out of it and put it in the wooden box.
Li Canghai found that those things were all gold and silver agate, and in addition, there were rare items such as silk and satin.
Li Canghai frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he did not reveal his identity, but quietly left the cave and returned to the rope.
Li Canghai looked up at the rope, and after thinking about it, he pulled the rope and stepped on the cliff to climb up.
Although the mountain wall is steep, it is fortunate that there are protrusions, and it is not difficult to climb.
It only took Li Canghai a quarter of an hour to climb up.
At this time, he realized that the cliff was no more than ten feet high, but because of the dense fog in the canyon, he could not see the top.
And what surprised him even more was that there were stoves, firewood piles and other things on the edge of this cliff, which looked very familiar.
This is clearly the backyard of the shrine!
Li Canghai looked around, then looked down at the cliff, a smile suddenly rose on the corner of his mouth, and then walked towards the shrine.
In a stone pavilion in the shrine, Wanyu and Conan sat on a stone bench, their brows furrowed and their expressions full of worry.
"I'm back." Li Canghai said.
When Wanyu heard this, she immediately jumped up from the stone bench, hurriedly ran to Li Canghai's side, and said eagerly: "Childe, where have you been?" Why haven't I seen you all day? ”
Conan also walked over, he saw that Li Canghai was not abnormal, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Brother Li, you are back, Miss Wanyu is worried that you are in danger, so she has to wait for you to come back here, if you don't come back, I really don't know what to do." ”
Li Canghai smiled apologetically at the two of them and said, "I make you worried, I'm really sorry to go." However, I did find out something this time, and you must be very interested. ”
"Oh? What's the matter? Conan asked.
Li Canghai walked to the stone bench and sat down, and told the two of them about the pirates' madness.
"No wonder they haven't come to the shrine, it turns out they're in trouble themselves." Conan said with a squint.
Li Canghai nodded and said, "Yes, now there are only two of them, so there is nothing to be afraid of, and you don't need to worry too much." By the way, did Zhang Da catch it? ”
Conan shook his head and sighed, "This person seems to have disappeared out of thin air, I sent people to look for him for two days, but I didn't find his whereabouts." ”
Li Canghai lowered his eyebrows and pondered for a moment, and said, "Brother Conan, what kind of tribute did you bring with you when you came to Datang this time?" ”
Conan said: "In addition to the three major artifacts, there are also 100,000 taels of gold, 500,000 taels of silver, 100,000 taels of high-quality pearl agate, and 100 boxes of Dongying Ayaluo. Also, it's the smashed. Why did Brother Li suddenly ask about this? ”
"Where are these tributes now?" Li Canghai asked.
"When the ship hit the rocks, some of the tribute sank into the sea, and some of it was in this shrine." Conan said.
"I'm afraid that the tribute in the shrine is long gone, right?" Li Canghai touched his chin and said meaningfully.
Conan frowned slightly, and said in surprise: "What does Brother Li mean by this?" ”
"Brother Conan, you can go and check it out, and you'll understand what I mean." Li Canghai said.
When Conan heard this, he immediately stood up and walked towards the room where the tribute was stored.
These tributes were placed in the room except for the wine jar, which was placed outside, because there were few of them, and they were all their own people here, so there were no guards.
Conan pushed the door in, he glanced at the box on the ground, walked to it, opened the box, and the whole person was stunned.
The chest is full of stones, where is there any gold and silver jewelry?
"This ...... What's going on? Conan was taken aback, cursed angrily, and was about to rush out to find someone to ask.
Li Canghai, who was standing in front of the door, stopped him, shouted at him, and said, "Brother Conan, don't panic, I know where these gold and silver are." However, there are still some mysteries that remain unsolved, and when they are all solved, gold and silver will appear. ”
Conan's face was a little ugly, he stomped his feet hatefully, and said angrily in a low voice: "Brother Li, since you know where the gold and silver are hidden, you must also know who stole it, right?" Who is it? Who is so bold as to steal the tribute? ”
Conan wasn't a fool, he could have guessed at a glance that it was their own people guarding and stealing.
Now, it has been an eventful time for the Dongying envoys.
first suffered a shipwreck, then a desert island, and then the princess met with an accident, and now even the tribute has been stolen, and it is his own person, how can he not be angry?
Li Canghai's expression was calm, he looked at Conan and said, "Brother Conan, can you trust me?" ”
"Natural trust." Conan said.
Li Canghai said hello and said, "Since Brother Conan trusts me, you might as well leave this matter to me, and I will explain everything to you, but not now." ”
Conan stared at him for a while before gritting his teeth and saying, "Okay, then this matter will be hard Brother Li!" ”
Li Canghai nodded and said, "Brother Conan doesn't have to be polite, but Brother Conan should act as if nothing happened, so as not to be noticed by the thieves that he has exposed his feet and takes risks." ”
The two left the house and got together again to discuss some things before they went their separate ways.
Nothing was said all night, and the next morning was in the morning.
As soon as Li Canghai woke up from his sleep, he heard a commotion outside. (To be continued.) )
