Chapter 220: Digging for Treasure
Both of them have a tendency to be a little stunned: monkeys, roasted sweet potatoes, flames...... Liu Junhao has fully understood what happened in the kitchen, although the fire that was cooking before was not extinguished, it would not cause such a big fire.
The scene in front of him must be the firewood that Wukong filled in, which was slowly caused by the all-rounder.
Ever since he had eaten a roasted sweet potato, the monkey had been thinking about it, and almost every other day he would go to the backyard to pick up a big sweet potato for his owner to roast.
Liu Junhao is sometimes too lazy to do anything, and he will jump and scream next to him until he bakes a sweet potato.
Tonight, I was in a hurry to check the Internet for information on dried sweet potatoes, so I didn't care about this guy. I originally thought that it was making trouble for a while, but who would have thought that this guy would often watch the master bake sweet potatoes by the stove, so many times, he actually learned it.
I once read in a book that some adult monkeys have an IQ equivalent to six or seven years old children, but now it seems that the IQ of this monkey is not low, and the imitation is strong.
Seeing that a pile of firewood under the stove had been knocked out, Zhang Qian hurriedly stepped forward to clean it up, and then extinguished the fire in the stove.
Goku probably knew that he was in trouble, and by the time the two of them looked for it again, the guy had already run outside.
It doesn't matter if she runs away, Zhang Qian has a way, so she went back to the house and grabbed a large handful of dates. In less than two minutes, the monkey squeaked to a stop at the door.
It now drooped its head, occasionally raising its head in a pitiful look. This look is completely like a child who has caused trouble outside and does not dare to see his parents.
Zhang Qian was angry and funny, took out the energy to teach the students in class, and said for more than ten minutes in one breath, regardless of whether Wukong could understand it or not.
From beginning to end, this guy squatted on the ground honestly, and seemed to really realize his mistake.
After the lesson, a few more jujubes were given, and the monkey immediately jumped up and down on the ground excitedly. Slap a sweet date, my wife is more familiar than herself, it seems that she will have to learn more in the future, Liu Junhao muttered secretly in his heart.
After eating the jujubes, the guy's temperament came out again, squeaked and stretched out his hand, and continued to ask Zhang Qian for it.
"It's gone," Liu Junhao waved his hand.
"Squeak ......", and the guy suddenly jumped to the door of the side house, stretching out his furry paws and pointing at the wooden door.
It means very clearly, there are dates in it.
"Flutter" Zhang Qian originally had a straight face, but now she was also amused by its movements. Seeing that the two of them didn't pay attention to themselves, Wukong leaned over and pulled Liu Junhao's trouser leg again, wanting the master to go over and open the door.
The door is the kind of closed lock, which can only be opened with a key outside, and the monkey has not yet learned to use the key.
"Get out and eat again tomorrow." Liu Junhao is not used to this guy like Zhang Qian, so he directly mentioned it and caught it outside the door.
I didn't think that the monkey was very resilient, and just threw it out and got in through the window. Helpless, he had to get up and grab a few dates.
Now no one needs to rush, Wukong happily goes out. Finally sending the annoying guy away, the two continue to look blindly in front of the computer.
After a while, I felt that it was quite cold at night, so I simply went to bed. …… At noon, Liu Junhao was idle, so he wiped two large baskets of dried raw sweet potatoes with the two old men.
This is planned, and it is good to dry raw sweet potatoes and throw them into the pot to eat, and it is good to change the taste.
The dried sweet potatoes are naturally dried on the roof of the building, which is not shaded by trees and has good sunlight. In order to prevent magpies and other birds from stealing food, he specially sent Doudou to watch from the roof of the building.
As for the monkey, he didn't dare to let it go up, this guy ate sweet potatoes more fiercely than anyone else. Let it be a guard, and it will definitely be a guard and steal.
After the courtyard was busy, the two old men continued to play chess, and Liu Junhao took advantage of the good weather to take Chitu and Xiaopi to go around in the wild.
Of course, Wukong must lead it out, otherwise he will definitely have to go upstairs to fight Doudou. Monkeys are actually quite willing to go out with their owners, especially if they can ride horses.
The winter sun is particularly gentle and warm. As far as the eye can see, large wheat fields are spreading overwhelming greenery.
A breeze blew, and the wheat field suddenly turned out several waves, which made people feel comfortable with it.
Although it is a winter wind, it does not make people feel cold, but it brings the unique taste of winter in the mountain village.
Hopes for a good harvest are brewing in the field, and the heavy snowfall last month is estimated to have frozen many pests to death in the field.
In a good year, next year's wheat harvest will definitely be good. As soon as I went up the embankment, I saw several figures shaking on the river beach in the distance.
If you look closely, it seems that they are all from your own village. What's good there? Liu Junhao's curiosity was overflowing, and he rode the red rabbit and rushed over.
Before he could get closer, the group of people also appeared to him, and Liu Laosan shouted at the top of his voice: "Xiao Hao, hurry up and take a look, we have dug up the treasure." ”
"What baby?" While speaking, Chitu had already arrived at the location. Liu Junhao naturally didn't believe his nonsense, the land of Liujiagou used to be a poor and remote place, where would there be any treasures.
"If you don't believe me, come and have a look." Liu Laosan said and let go of a little gap, only to see that a big pit had been dug on the river beach, and there was a thick bluestone slab the size of a wooden basin next to it, and there were several blurry handwriting written on the slate, which looked like it should be traditional characters.
"Do you recognize what this is?" The old bull head also leaned over and asked. This place was the first place he appeared, and it was fine at noon, and the old bull head drove his seven or eight sheep to the river beach early, and soon a rabbit was startled.
With the intention of picking up bargains, he chased after him with a sheepwhip, but he never thought that the rabbit had not been caught, but had tripped over something.
The old cow got up and patted the dust on his body, and turned his head to look at what had tripped over him. I was stunned when I saw it, it turned out to be a horse brick.
Ma Wu may not be familiar to anyone, but when it comes to Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu, everyone is clear. There is a rumor in Daqingshan that Liu Xiu was turned around by Wang Mang in this mountain before he became the emperor, and then two people came out to protect him, one of whom was Ma Wu and the other was Chen Peng.
It is said that this Ma Wu has a hemp face, and he was a brick maker before he met Liu Xiu. The bricks he made were the same as his own face, pitted.
I don't know if this legend is true or not, but the brick features in front of me are obvious, and the side is a pattern with overlapping diamond-shaped raised checks, which can be recognized at a glance.
Lao Niutou has lived in Liujiagou for most of his life, so he is naturally quite familiar with this place. This river beach is two miles away from the ferry, how can there be Ma Wu bricks?
There must be something underground, and the old man thought about it to see what was buried in the sand. There was no suitable digger, so he found a random wooden stick to dig in the sand, and soon dug out two Mawu bricks, and then dug up a bluestone slab.
This slate weighed one or two hundred pounds, and his strength alone was naturally not enough, so he ran to the village and called a few idlers.
After hearing this, the people who originally came to play also came over to join in the fun. When Liu Junhao arrived, they had just dug out the slate and were about to lift it out.
"Xiao Hao, you are highly educated, can you see what kind of words this is?" Er Mazi asked again.
"I'll take a look" Liu Junhao stretched out his hand to wipe the sand off the top, and then carefully identified it. Probably because of the age, the handwriting on the slate has been blurred, and he looked at it for a long time before he recognized the first traditional character, Liu Zi.
It seems to have something to do with Liujiagou...... Recognize the first word, and the rest will be easy to recognize.
"Liu Erwa opened the well, and the descendants ...... drinking water" There are two words under it that have been completely worn out, and he speculates that it should be
"Siyuan".
"I heard that this name is a well dug by the ancestors of our Liu family, this thing can't be a manhole cover, right? Whose name is Liu Erwa, it can't be from outside, right? I seem to have heard the fifth uncle say last time that our family used to divide cards according to generations, and it was strict. Only outsiders don't start by nameplate......" Liu Laosan preemptively said his judgment in order to show off his knowledge.
Before he finished his words, he was reprimanded by the old bull head: "You are not allowed to talk nonsense." ”
"What did I say wrong?" Liu Laosan asked suspiciously. Not only him, but also the younger generation is inexplicable.
"Have you forgotten who your ancestors were?" The old bull said with a dark face.
"Isn't that ...... Liu Erwa, do you mean ......? He had just said half a sentence when he suddenly seemed to choke.
Liu Junhao was also stunned, this well ...... It won't be dug by the first generation of the Liu family's ancestors! Although there is no written record of the history of Liujiagou's ancestors, it has been passed down from generation to generation.
When Liu Erwa moved from Shanxi, they were three brothers, namely the eldest baby, the second baby, and the third baby.
However, the three did not know what the reason was, and did not settle in the same place, but chose three different places along the river.
In the early years, Liu Junhao heard the old people say that there is still Liu Jiagou's own family outside the mountain, and he is talking about the other two surnamed Liu.
That...... This bluestone slab is also considered a cultural relic? This is from the Ming Dynasty! But if you look at it again, it doesn't seem to have any archaeological value, it's just a bare bluestone slab, and the words engraved on it are also crooked.
However, there will be cultural relics in this well, if it is really dug up, it will be worth a lot of money. He was not the only one who thought so, even Er Mazi shouted excitedly: "There must be old things in this well, we are making a lot of money, I heard that Liu Erwa seems to have run to transport wealth at that time." Hurry up and dig ...... When you dig up something good, everyone has a share. The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and the face of the old bull became darker and darker.
Liu Laosan still saw that something was wrong, so he hurriedly dragged it behind.
"Do you want to sell the things of your ancestors...... Sold all the things of your ancestors? The old bull head was angry.
"Ahem...... I'm also casually talking, casually talking...... "Er Mazi thought about it, no matter what was in this well, it was all left by the ancestors, if it was really sold, it would definitely be pointed out by people when he returned to the village."
"That'...... Shall we dig this well? Liu Qihua's voice asked weakly, he didn't have the heart to dig treasure now.
"First of all, Xiao Hao, you hurry back to the village and inform Guangju to come and have a look. There are also people from the older generation who also called over, and when everyone discussed the charter, they said...... "This matter is a big deal in the eyes of others, but in the eyes of the elderly, it is definitely a big deal."
