Chapter 1952: Reporting
Because of last night's "dream", Niu Xi, who got up early in the morning, was restless and couldn't calm down.
Niu Shun came over and asked him to go up the mountain together and continue to hunt for treasure in the maze, but Niu Xi couldn't calm down at all.
Probably seeing that Niu Xi's situation was very strange, Niu Shun asked casually.
During this time, the two broke through the maze together, searched for treasures, and had a good relationship with each other, so Niu Xi did not hide it and told him about the strange dream he had last night.
Seeing his state, he felt that it was probably impossible to go to the maze with him today, after all, he needed to be calm in the maze to find a way out.
So Niu Shun decided to pause for a day and let Niu Xi rest at home.
I simply stayed at home, after all, I haven't rested for a long time. In the past, it was because I had to chop wood and sell it for money, but now there is more silver under the bed, and I don't have to worry about eating and drinking in the next life, and it is not a big deal to take a day off to recover my spirits.
Niu Xi walked around at home, unable to sit still all morning, always thinking about that strange dream that was extremely real.
At noon, Yang Ji came to his door in a panic with his subordinates.
"Xizi, something happened in the county seat!" Yang Ji looked worried, "There are monsters that suddenly enter the city, causing a lot of chaos." ”
The people of the Yang family will not be bored enough to talk to themselves about interesting things in the county, as soon as they heard this, Niu Xi immediately had a strange dream in his mind, especially the monster: "What about my father! Is there something wrong with my father?!"
"You, don't worry! Don't worry!" Yang Ji was worried that Niu Xi would lose control of his emotions after hearing the truth of the matter, so he tried his best to comfort him, and then said to him, "My family's people quickly came to report that during dinner this morning, a monster broke into my house and actually captured Uncle Niu!"
"Ah!!" Hearing this, Niu Xi felt dizzy in front of him and almost collapsed.
"Xizi, don't worry!" The Yang family hurriedly asked the two maids to step forward to support him, but he didn't dare to go over, for fear that Niu Xi would hurt people. He wouldn't do anything to the two weak maids, would he?
"What's not dangerous? My father has been captured by monsters! Monsters are cannibals!!" Niu Xi really couldn't do anything to the two women, and looked at Yang Ji angrily, "If your family hadn't called my father over, there wouldn't have been such a thing!"
"Yes! That's right!" Yang Ji couldn't refute, "but we didn't expect it either. The most important thing at the moment is to rescue Uncle Niu as soon as possible. Don't worry, the person was lost in our house, and we will do our best to help you bring it back safely!"
"How do you bring it back? That's a man-eating monster!!" Niu Xi was so anxious that he couldn't do it.
"My dad said in his letter, it seems that the monster didn't catch people to eat them. Yang Ji hurriedly took out the letter and handed it to Niu Xi, "Look at it, the monster said that I should send more silver and wine."
"I don't understand this!" said Niu Xi anxiously, "The monster wants silver and wine, are you teasing me?"
"It's true, I don't believe it either, but that's what my dad said about the words left by the monsters. ”
"Youkai, youkai are right!" Niu Xi suddenly turned around, "Go and ask the two monks, they will definitely be able to save my father!"
"No!" Yang Ji hurriedly stopped him.
"Of course you need a monk to deal with youkai, why are you stopping me?" Niu Xi roared anxiously.
Yang Ji hurriedly explained: "Xizi, don't worry! It's just that the monster said that if we ask the county soldiers or monks for help, we will eat your father!"
"What?!"
"Really, that's what my dad said in his letter. "He said that the monster wants a thousand taels of silver and a thousand catties of wine, and he must send someone to the Wild Boar Ridge." Don't worry, the person was arrested at my house, and my father is already raising money to send someone to buy fine wine. As long as Uncle Niu can be rescued, these are not a problem! It's just that the silver thousand taels are not so easy to come together, and it will take some time."
"What are you talking about? What monsters? What silver wine?" Niu Shun probably heard the movement here, so he came over to inquire.
"It's okay!" Yang Ji immediately slurred when he saw him coming.
But Niu Xi didn't hesitate, turned his head to him and said, "Junko, my father was captured by monsters in Hitomi County!"
"Huh?!" Niu Shun was startled, "What's going on?"
Yang Ji hurriedly gave Niu Xi's eyes: "Xizi, this can't be talked about everywhere"
"It's okay! Junko's relationship with me, you can say it. Niu Xi frowned, "Is my father really safe?"
"At least," Yang Ji looked at Niu Shun and hesitated for a few seconds, "It seems to be safe, as long as you can get him some money and wine." Wine is not a problem, my father has a good relationship with several wine merchants in the county, and he will definitely be able to get it. It's just that it really takes a few days to raise a thousand taels of silver. All my family's money is invested in the business, and it takes time to get that much cash. But you can rest assured, this silver will definitely come out of our family!"
"How many days? If the monster is in a hurry, wouldn't my father be in danger?" Niu Xi said in a panic.
"We will definitely do our best!" said Yang Ji, "Xizi, shall I send you to the county seat? You can rest assured, no matter what the cost, we will definitely let Uncle Niu go home safely!"
"A thousand taels of silver?" Niu Shun blinked, suddenly stretched out his hand to pull Niu Xi aside, and whispered in his ear, "Xizi, your father will be in danger in a few days! If the monster really only needs silver and wine, the Yang family can prepare the wine as soon as possible, and the silver is there! What we brought back these days belongs to you is more than a silver thousand taels!"
Niu Xi's eyes lit up, and then he became worried: "But those silver, we originally planned"
"Is the plan more important or your father's life important?" Niu Shun said in a low voice, "Uncle Niu is very good to me, I don't want anything to happen to him." ”
"What about the labyrinth? When people know that we have taken out such a large sum of silver, how do people explain it?"
"As long as you find a way to convince the people of the Yang family," Niu Shun's brain was quite effective at this time, "To the outside, it is said that it is the money from the Yang family, anyway, they themselves said that they are willing to take a money, and you can also ask them to come back at that time." As for the Yang family, there is no need to tell them about the labyrinth, just say that the silver was secretly given by the living immortal when he gave you the elixir before. ”
"That's right!" Niu Xi nodded again and again, "just do as you say!" It's just that in broad daylight, how can we avoid the eyes of the people in the village, or even avoid the attention of the sheep family, and take out the silver from under the bed at home?"
"Don't worry! Now the people in the village are either helping out at the Taoist temple or working in the fields, and few of them are at home. There is still an hour or so for lunch!" Niu Shun said in a low voice, "I'll take the people of the Yang family away first, and you hurry up to pull the silver with a donkey cart!"
"Okay! I'll try to be careful. ”
"Hurry up, let's put it very flat, it's easy to count. But it's a bit tiring to move a thousand taels of silver alone, so you have to hurry. ”
