Soon after the thief fled on horseback, it began to get dark.

When he had walked a long way, he was relieved to find that the ambition had not caught up at all. And he himself was exhausted and panting and exhausted. And the other thing, he hasn't eaten anything yet, which really starves him to death.

So he found a fruit tree, and when he saw that it was safe all around, he dug a hole under it, put the treasure in it, buried it, and tied the horse to another tree not far away. He climbed up the fruit tree, and then picked the fruit and ate it, probably because he was really tired, and the thief fell asleep on the tree while eating.

There is still some distance from Wolf Mountain, and although the wolf howl can be heard, it is still very safe, and the thief heart spent the night peacefully in the tree.

It wasn't until the next day, after dawn, that the sun's rays blinded him, and he woke up. He tried to roll over, but he almost didn't fall off the tree, and he made a false alarm and climbed down from the tree.

He thought back to yesterday, and everything was like a dream. Then he remembered that he had buried the treasure under the tree last night, so he immediately started to dig up the treasure from under the tree, and the gold and silver treasures were still there, so he was much more sure. He hitched the burden of the treasure on his horse's back and prepared to set out for a place where he was not known. Before leaving, he didn't forget to fill his stomach first.

When he entered Wolf Mountain, his surroundings became different. He could sometimes see wolves staring at him from a short distance, which had to make him a little scared. So, he quickened his horse's pace, trying to get out of the wolf zone as quickly as possible. But soon it was noon again, and his stomach rumbled again, and the sun was so hot that he was a little dizzy, and the horse was so strained that he was forced to stop and rest. He found a fruit tree and tied his horse to graze under it, while he climbed up to the tree and picked the fruit to eat while enjoying the coolness.

And this is the wolf mountain, but it is not as safe as last night, the wolves are quietly approaching him, and the thief who is napping hears the sound and opens his eyes, unbelievable, the wolves are only a hundred meters away from him. He immediately slipped down from the tree, got on the horse and forgot to get rid of the reins and was about to escape, but the horse was bound and could not escape, he wanted to get off the horse and untie the rope, but when he saw the wolves coming from not far away, he had to swing his knife and cut off the reins, and fled on horseback.

But no matter which way he fled, the wolves came at him and frightened him. The wolves surrounded him, and the only thing the thief could think of now was their friends: ambition, ruthlessness, and greed, and how warm it was to remember the night when they had retired together, and how warm it was for everyone to work together to drive the wolves away with torches.

And now, they must hate themselves to the core. The thief felt that what he did would definitely be despised by everyone, and he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. He never imagined that he would betray his friends because of money, and finally fall to the point where he is today, perhaps, this is his retribution.

After a brief moment of staring at each other, the wolves attacked him, which made the thief's heart tremble. But the thief was willing to sit still, and rushed in the direction of the advance with his sword, and the wolf did not fear him, but pounced on him, trying to pounce on him from his horse. The thief dodged their horses, dodged their frontal attacks, and then slashed with his sword, injuring some of the wolves and splattering blood everywhere.

But the wolves did not give up their attack because of this, on the contrary, when they smelled the blood, they launched an even more fierce attack, trying to kill the thief's heart. Seeing that the slashing did not work, the thief chose the weaker defense of the wolves as a breakthrough, and then flashed left and right, trying to fight his way out of there. Both the wolf and the horse were injured by the wolf's fierce attack, but fortunately, he managed to break through the wolf's siege and rode his horse straight ahead. The wolf pursued after him, but finally because he couldn't outrun the thief's horse, he had to watch the "prey" escape from under their noses.

The thief heart galloped like this for an unknown amount of time, and finally came to Lingxin Mountain. There is a big turn in Lingxin Mountain, and due to disrepair, the road surface gradually narrows at the corner, and if you are not careful, you may fall into the valley. There have been many accidents here before, and there are not a few people who have died in the valley, so the predecessors of Lingxin Village have given it a terrible name, "Ghost Valley".

When the thief came here on horseback, he was too fast, but fortunately, he reacted in time, and immediately reined in the precipice, and the horse's front hooves turned around in time to avoid rolling down the landslide. The thief was terrified, and took a few deep breaths of cold air. And at the moment of turning the course, the heavy gold and silver treasures were thrown out from behind the horse by inertia, but the thief was unaware of the horror, and after turning two more great bends, he galloped away.

When the thief thinks that the wolves are not chasing him, he stops and wants to rest. After getting off the horse, the thief saw that the gold and silver treasures on the horse's back were gone, and suddenly gasped, and his heart, which had just been calm, panicked again: Where is the treasure?

That's all he has to do! It was a fortune he had earned at the cost of losing his friends. If he loses even this, he will have nothing. I guess I lost it while fighting the wolves, right? It's impossible, I touched the horse's back after I got out of Wolf Mountain, and the burden was still there at that time.

He slowly recalled the situation along the way, and there was, it may have fallen when Lingxin Mountain was turning, when the horse's front hooves turned around, and the treasure may have been lost at that time. So, he rode back along the way.
