On this side, Uncle Jiu's house.

Uncle Jiu, Li Yan, Wencai, and Qiusheng were sitting around the small table, crossing Erlang's legs and drinking tea.

In the courtyard, workers are working, building bathhouses and affixing gold sheets to the statue of the ancestor and god.

Wen Cai took a sip of tea, sighed his mouth, and said with emotion: "Oh, since Uncle Da came, our little days have become more and more moisturized." ”

Uncle Nine smiled after hearing this, and said: "Senior brother has extraordinary ability, which is beyond the reach of the teacher, but the two of you still need to cultivate more, don't forget the original intention of our cultivators just because your life is good." ”

"Yes, yes, Master." Wen Cai grinned.

Qiusheng looked at Li Yan with a look of admiration, and said, "Uncle Shi, you have been cultivating with Master for the past few days, but are you unwell?" If you have back pain, I can help you pinch it with medicinal wine later. ”

Li Yan was overjoyed and said, "You are still sensible." ”

"That's right." Wen Cai seemed to suddenly think of something, and said, "Master, uncle, have you heard any rumors in the town in the past two days?" ”

"Huh?" Uncle Nine was stunned, looked at him, and said, "What? ”

Uncle Nine on weekdays, if there is no major event, he rarely goes out under normal circumstances, so he naturally doesn't know what is going on outside.

Wencai and Qiusheng go to the street every day to buy vegetables and cook, and they spend more time walking the streets and alleys, so they naturally hear a lot of stories.

Qiusheng looked serious and said mysteriously, "Master, you really don't know? I heard people say that there is a desert outside this Ganling Town, and antiques have been found. ”

"Antiques?" Li Yan was surprised and said, "What antique?" ”

Qiu Sheng shook his head like a rattle, and said: "I don't know about this, the gendarmerie has already gone, and it is said that the land is the field of the stunned family, I heard that there should be a grave underground, and it was dug up." ”

"Oh?" Uncle Jiu's face became solemn and asked, "Is your news accurate?" ”

"Exactly." Wen Cai continued: "The gendarmerie dug up a lot of antiques, which should be funeral goods, think about it...... If there were no ancient tombs, how could this thing be dug up? ”

Uncle Nine took a deep breath and said, "If this is the case, I am afraid that the owner of this tomb will not be small. ”

"Master, have you ever heard of any princes and generals buried here?"

Wencai and Qiusheng asked with great interest.

Li Yan also listened attentively.

This kind of thing, I used to read movies and novels, but I knew some of it, but I have never experienced it.

But seeing that Uncle Nine was unhurried, he took a sip of tea and said in a deep voice: "I haven't heard of this...... Our Ganling Town is a poor and remote place, facing the sea in the south and the mountains in the north, how can there be a prince buried here? If it is the tomb of the landlord of the county order in ancient times, I still believe some of it. ”

Wen Cai frowned: "Impossible? The county magistrate and the landlord, where did they get so many gold and silver treasures and bronze antiques? ”

Li Yan suddenly said, "It must be a corrupt official." ”

"Hmmm! What the junior brother said is reasonable. Uncle Nine bowed slightly.

"Uncle Gaojian!"

Wen Cai reacted and immediately gave a thumbs up.

"Uncle Shi is wise!" Akisheng followed.

"Huh?" Li Yan was stunned and a little depressed.

I don't know if my ass is a little hot, and I don't know if I've been filmed too much.

……

"Ninth Uncle, Ninth Uncle!"

A voice came suddenly.

I only saw Adjutant Zhao, with his head held high, followed by a few soldiers, into the house.

"Adjutant Zhao?"

When Uncle Nine saw him, he showed a look of surprise and quickly stood up.

"Haha...... Uncle Nine, long time no see. Adjutant Zhao's face suddenly showed a smile, and he hurriedly stepped forward and held Uncle Jiu's hand.

Uncle Nine said: "Adjutant Zhao suddenly came to visit, but is there something?" ”

"I'm going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing!" Adjutant Zhao said with a smile: "Uncle Nine, Captain Liu has something important to discuss with you, and I want you to come over, so I specially came to find you." ”

"Something important?" Uncle Nine said suspiciously, "Could it be the matter of the tomb?" ”

Adjutant Zhao said, "Haha...... Uncle Nine is really a master, and he guessed it, and Captain Liu wanted to discuss with Uncle Nine about finding the tomb. ”

When Qiusheng heard this, he was a little anxious, stood up, and said, "Adjutant Zhao, my master is a cultivator, not a tomb robber. ”

Uncle Nine hurriedly waved his hand, interrupted Qiusheng's words, and said, "Qiusheng, the matter hasn't been clarified yet, don't rush to make a conclusion." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Adjutant Zhao said: "What's more, this is not a tomb robbery, we call it ...... The excavation of cultural relics is a good thing for the entire Ganling Town...... Specifically, let's ask Uncle Nine to go with me to Captain Liu. ”

Uncle Nine hesitated, nodded, looked at Li Yan and the others, and said, "Senior brother, Wencai, Qiusheng, you are waiting for me at home, and I will go to Captain Liu's house." ”

After that, he left with Adjutant Zhao.

Li Yan and the three of them looked at each other.

As soon as Uncle Nine and Adjutant Zhao left, Qiusheng said in surprise: "Uncle Shi, you say, will Master agree to their request?" ”

"How do I know?" Li Yan said lightly.

Although he said this, in fact, in his heart, he was a little excited.

If Uncle Nine can agree to go to the tomb, he can also go down and see for himself.

There aren't many such opportunities.

Wen Cai grinned and said, "Senior brother, there are countless gold and silver treasures in that tomb, I think ...... The Master would have agreed, and if he could take the treasures from the tomb and use them for the people, it would be a good thing. ”

Qiusheng looked incredulous and said, "If this gold, silver and jewelry is taken out, it must have been occupied by the mayor and Captain Liu, how can it be used for the people?" Senior brother, I'm afraid you're thinking a little too much. ”

"It's not necessarily a bad thing." Li Yan thought for a moment and suddenly spoke.

"Huh? Uncle Shi, what do you think? ”

Li Yan said: "Nowadays, there is a shortage of soldiers outside, and Ganling Town can stand alone, largely because of the poor countryside, which is not a place where soldiers must fight, but ...... In the long run, it may not always be like a paradise, so Ganling Town needs to prepare early, if you can obtain the treasures in the tomb, even if it is not used for people's livelihood, it can be used to buy arms and ammunition, otherwise, once the news leaks, the warlords outside will learn that there is a big tomb here, and they will come to rob it, and then Ganling Town will definitely not be at peace. ”

Li Yan, as a modern person, couldn't know better.

In Uncle Jiu's era, the warlords were fighting each other, and they had not yet been unified, and many areas seemed to be extremely harmonious on the surface, but in fact, I don't know when war broke out and the displaced people were lost.

Captain Liu's gendarmerie, although it is powerful in Ganling Town, is vulnerable compared to the warlords outside.

The treasure in this ancient tomb, if Captain Liu and the others don't dig it, it will also be robbed and excavated by other warlords.

In this era, having soldiers and money is the king.

Otherwise, benefiting the people is just an empty word.

Now the people of Ganling Town, under the governance of Captain Liu and others, can still live and work in peace and contentment, but once the war starts, hehe......

Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng widened their eyes and looked at Li Yan in surprise.

"What's wrong?" Li Yan was a little strange.

"No, Uncle Shi, I think what you said makes a lot of sense!"

Li Yan can figure this question out, and Uncle Nine can naturally figure it out.

Not long after, I saw Uncle Nine come back with a few soldiers.

"How's it going, Master?"

As soon as they saw that Uncle Nine was back, Wencai and Qiusheng suddenly jumped up.

"Grab the guy who eats, and follow me to the grave."

Sure enough, Uncle Jiu's face was solemn, and he said in a shocking voice.

"It's ready." Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng smiled and took out the prepared package.

Uncle Nine was stunned for a moment, and said, "You ......"

"Uncle Shi told us, we understand ......"

"Hmm!" Uncle Nine nodded and looked at Li Yan approvingly.
