Anyway, a bandit like this has nothing but money in his eyes. What kind of human life, morality, law, for them, it's all fucking fart.

I figured it out, and I recognized it. It's just that I forgot my father's words when I saw the gold. I didn't expect to see him so soon.

I finally clung to the box of gold in my arms, waiting for the bandits to click me off with their knives.

But strangely, they didn't do anything to me for a long time. Even the knife around my neck didn't come down for a long time.

I didn't understand, but I didn't expect the bandits to let me go.

Sure enough, after they finished talking, one of the bandits grabbed me from the ground. Then, a man who looked like their leader said in a non-standard dialect of ours, "Where is the ship, the treasure on that ship?" ”

I didn't understand it at first, and it wasn't until he repeated it many times that I vaguely understood what he was talking about the ship's treasures. I remembered the ship I saw in the sea, and if there was a treasure on board, could it be the box of gold I was carrying in my arms?

But now it was useless to understand, the bandit leader had seen the box of things I was carrying.

Without saying a word, he snatched it, and when he opened it, he found that it was a pile of gold. His face did not look as satisfied as I had hoped, but he threw the chest of gold on the ground in disgust.

Then he yelled at me, and with that, he pulled out a knife in a rage and looked at me coldly.

Looking at the sharp knife, I gasped, and I wasn't scared much. I knew I was going to die, and it was just a matter of time......

The bandit leader walked slowly towards me with his knife in his hand, and just as he was about to drop it, I closed my eyes, ready to be embraced by death.

"Stop!"

Just then, I heard a shouting right in front of me.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw a man dressed in white walking slowly behind the bandits.

Isn't that the man I saw on the bank of the river in the evening, who looked like a Taoist priest?

What is his relationship with this group of people?

I don't know, only that the leader of the bandits seems to be afraid of him.

"When did you come along? What are you going to do?"

For the first time, I heard the gangster say "Mandarin", and that was his last word.

In the next second, the white-clothed Taoist priest waved his hand, and the leader of the bandits collapsed to the ground, without moving.

Seeing this, the remaining bandits retreated one after another, looking at the silent man in front of them in horror.

The white-clothed Taoist priest didn't care about them, picked up the box of gold scattered on the ground, and walked straight towards me.

"Take it and follow me." He said dryly. Then he turned around and walked on the way he had come without saying a word.

I didn't dare to stay long, I didn't understand what his purpose was, but now that I was with him, I might be able to live a little longer.

And so, I followed him all the way out of the village......

I don't know how long he walked, but he suddenly stopped in front of him and muttered, "Yes, this is it." ”

At that time, I couldn't tell where I was. It wasn't until I heard the sound of running water in the distance that I realized that he had led me to the bank of the Yellow River.

"This ...... What's going on? Who are you? Seeing that the man did not speak, I couldn't help but ask.

It was a moment before he turned his face, and I knew he was staring at me.

"I'm a wandering Taoist priest, as for what's going on here, I can't tell you now, just wait, I'll tell you when all the sins here are washed away."

As soon as his words fell, a strange voice suddenly came from afar.

After listening for three seconds, I immediately understood that this was the sound of water gushing out of the Yellow River dam when it burst.

We're fucking near that dam that burst now?!

"Are you crazy, this Yellow River is overflowing, and it will definitely be submerged within a radius of ten miles, and you still brought us to this place?!" I was quickly overwhelmed by fear, this Yellow River burst its banks and was no fucking joke!

I turned my head to look at the man, but the man was not nervous at all, and said lightly: "Don't worry, nothing will happen here." When the Yellow River comes with that thing, we can leave. ”

I'm noncommittal, but for now, I guess I can only believe this man. Even if I could run, I would never be able to outrun the flooding Yellow River.

For the rest of the day, I could only sit here, listening to or watching the Yellow River rush past me in the distance and rush behind me. However, there is one thing, the Taoist priest is right, in this place where we are, no matter how turbulent the Yellow River is, it has not been able to flood here, but the surrounding area has been flooded with golden mountains.

"Ahem...... It's been longer than I thought, and it looks like it won't be here anytime soon, so I'll tell you everything you want to know. The Taoist priest suddenly moved, changed his position, and sat down again facing me.

Then, he began to say to himself: "Those who set fire to your village are from the northwest and belong to the Li family. Your village was an important and vital place in the past, belonging to the second meridian of the north and the mountain of Guanshui. There is a secret hidden here, which I don't know yet, the only thing I know is that it must be centered in your village, extending to the banks of the Yellow River. ”

"So those people didn't hesitate to set fire to our village and kill the villagers of our village?" I was stunned, and at the same time thought of my brother who I had left at the village gate.

"Yes, my brother, my brother is still at the village gate." I exclaimed, turned around and tried to run back, but was grabbed by the hand.

"What's the use of you going back now? Not to mention the flood, it will be difficult for your brother to escape the fire and the people in the village, besides, do you think you can go back the way you came? The Taoist priest said coldly.

Hearing this, I had no choice but to suppress my grief and indignation and sit back in silence.

"Don't be angry, it's meant to happen. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come. The Taoist priest smiled rarely.

"Who are you?" I asked coldly, "Why did you come to save me?"

"I, I'm a Taoist, you can call me a Taoist priest, as for saving you, I happened to be passing by at the time, and I saw you on the shore before, so I saved you." Wang Daoist smiled. After laughing, he suddenly returned to his senses, as if listening to something.

After a while, he slowly stood up, pointed behind him and said, "Here, here we are." ”

I looked behind me, and I didn't see anything but the darkness as far as the eye could see, what was it that had come to pick us up?
