After a while, the master's burden was filled with Xiao Laodao, and when the master and Xiao Chujiu pulled him out of the well, Xiao Laodao seemed to breathe a long sigh of relief, and said to the two people: "This time I can finally give an explanation to the father and daughter......

Xiao Chujiu asked Xiao Laodao what he had dug up, and Xiao Laodao suddenly smiled, "There are no bits and pieces, all yellow and white hard currency." ”

Yellow and white means gold and silver, Xiao Laodao said, these things are placed in a wax-sealed stone box at the bottom of the well, the stone box is half buried and half buried, it is estimated that after the well water dried up, it was buried by the two hippos.

Xiao Laodao opened the burden again, and let my grandfather and Xiao Chujiu take a look, indeed, it was all gold and silver ingots, large and small, to say the least, there were dozens. At that time, this burden was enough for two generations of a family to have food and clothing.

The stone slab at the mouth of the well was covered again, and the turf that had been cut down was also put back on the stone slab, and the three of them should have left after doing this, but Xiao Laodao walked towards the head grave in the cemetery, and the head grave was the ancestor in this cemetery.

After a few laps around the head grave, Xiao Laodao beckoned Xiao Chujiu and dug a pit behind the head grave with a shovel, and I won't write the specific location of the pit.

Seeing this, the grandfather asked Xiao Laodao, "Brother Xiao, what are you going to do here?" ”

Xiao Laodao smiled, "Their ancestral grave is good, but they don't accumulate virtue, they are rampant in the township, and even their subordinates are walking sideways on the street, and the fool this morning...... Forget it, I won't say more, put some material in their ancestral graves......" As he spoke, Xiao Laodao relieved himself of the small burden on his body.

When he came over before, the master had already found that there seemed to be something more in Xiao Laodao's baggage, bulging, at this time, Xiao Laodao opened the baggage, and the grandfather glanced at it, and saw that there was an object inside, the size of a sea bowl.

Xiao Laodao said: "This thing, it took me a long afternoon to find it, as long as they bury it, it will not take more than five years for the family to be ruined." "I won't write what this thing is.

Hearing this, the grandfather's face changed slightly, and he said, "Brother Xiao, you are cursing people with evil arts, and you will be punished." ”

"Retribution?" Xiao Laodao smiled indifferently, "Compared with the retribution of stealing graves and digging graves, what is this, you don't care, brother, I'm doing the right thing for heaven!" ”

The object was buried by Xiao Laodao's master and apprentice, and after the burial, Xiao Laodao took out dozens of thumb-thick and three-inch-long peach wood wedges from the baggage, beckoned Xiao Chujiu, and nailed one to each grave.

After the peach wood wedge was nailed, Xiao Laodao stood at the head of the grave and said to the grave: "Let me tell you, Poor Dao does things by himself, and if there is anything, he will come to me alone!" ”

The master felt uncomfortable at this time, and he did not approve of the use of evil arts, because he felt that doing so was a bit of a victory, especially like the behavior of a villain.

On the way back, the master didn't speak, Xiao Laodao seemed to see it, and persuaded my grandfather all the way, Xiao Laodao said, deal with the wicked, as long as you can achieve the goal, no matter what method you use, if you want to be a good person, you have to be more evil than the wicked, otherwise, wouldn't you have been killed by the wicked long ago?

When the three of them returned to the inn, the inn had just played three watches, and the old man and a few of them had already packed their luggage and waited in the inn, ready to go.

Xiao Laodao didn't even have time to breathe, greeted the guy who was on the watch, and called out to the innkeeper, we have to settle the bill and leave.

After the innkeeper was beaten and shouted, he asked Xiao Laodao in a daze, is the guest officer in any hurry, why did he have to settle the bill in the middle of the night?

Xiao Laodao lied and said that there was something urgent at home for several of them, so they had to rush back overnight.

After settling the account and leaving the inn, the old man asked Xiao Laodao, "Dao Chief, where are we going in the middle of the night?" ”

Xiao Laodao replied: "Let's leave this town first." ”

At this time, the two donkeys of the three of them, the leper mule, and the guys they were doing were all sold, and those guys who were both bulky and eye-catching, and they were easy to be discovered by the flower thieves who were chasing them.

A group of people beat their horses and whipped them, followed the main road, and hurried in the direction of due east, and they didn't know how far they went, and there was a south-facing fork in front of them, and Xiao Laodao immediately strangled the horses.

Next to the fork in the road, there is a forest, Xiao Laodao beckoned everyone and entered the forest to rest for a while.

After everyone got off the horse and led the horses into the forest, after stabilizing in the forest, Xiao Laodao lit a candle and asked my grandfather to take out the baggage, open the baggage, and the gold and silver ingots inside were all presented in front of everyone.

Xiao Laodao said to the old man: "Take out your baggage, take these, and go home to treat your wife." ”

When the old man heard this, he looked a little stupid, "This, so much...... This, that's too much. ”

Xiao Laodao smiled, "What is this, if the treasure in the mountain is not lost, let alone this, quickly take out your baggage." ”

The old man's hands didn't seem to know where to put them, and the girl and the young man had straight eyes, and no one took the baggage.

This is the normal reaction of ordinary people when they see a large amount of treasure, just like many people who buy lottery tickets and win five million and go directly into insanity.

Xiao Laodao glanced at Xiao Shiyi, Xiao Shiyi understood, got up from the old man's horse, untied a burden, opened the burden, spread it on the ground, and picked up gold and silver in the old man's baggage.

When there was still more than half of the gold and silver left, the old man suddenly grabbed Xiao Shiyi's arm, and said in a trembling voice: "Enough, little brother is enough, you can keep the rest." ”

Xiao Laodao gently took the old man's hand away, motioned for Xiao Shiyi to continue holding it, Xiao Laodao said to the old man: "It's all yours, this is half of what is given to you, the other half, we have put it away, and I hope you don't have too little, old brother." ”

"This, this ......" The old man didn't seem to know what to say, and arched his hand towards Xiao Laodao tremblingly, "Great kindness, old decay is unforgettable." ”

Xiao Laodao waved his hand, "Old brother, what are you talking about, this is what you deserve!" ”

After holding the gold and silver, Xiao Shiyi tied the burden into a dead knot and tied it back to the old man's horse, but at this moment, there was a string of horses' hooves outside the forest, listening to the sound, they were not walking fast, there seemed to be a lot of people, and there was also the sound of wooden wheels crushing the ground, which seemed to be a horse convoy.

Xiao Laodao hurriedly blew out the candles and gave everyone a silent gesture, and after a while, the sound of horses' hooves got closer and closer, and there were still people talking, "Big brother, did the one named Liu Niandao really kill a dragon in the Yellow River?" ”

In the forest, when the grandfather and a few of them heard this, they "chuckled" in their hearts.

"Are there dragons in the Yellow River? It's just a rumor, if there really is a dragon, your eldest brother and I can kill ten or eight of them! ”

"That's right, with the kung fu of the eldest brother, if there are really dragons in the Yellow River, they will all have to avoid you, but Liu Niandao has leveled a cottage by himself, it seems to be true, he is in the area of Heze, Shandong, and he is quite famous."

"Humph! Fame? That's because he didn't meet me! By the way, after I go back, you treat the blind fortune teller for me, didn't he say that we can meet Liu Niandao in the Mengjin area of Luoyang, it's been so many days, and I haven't even met a shadow! ”

"Big brother, don't be angry, although we didn't meet Liu Niandao, but we have gained a lot this time, these more than ten girls in the carriage, as long as they make a move, it is not a small number."

Hearing them talk about this, the master gestured to Xiao Laodao and told them not to move, and the master himself wanted to go to the edge of the forest to have a look.

Xiao Laodao hurriedly gestured to my grandfather, not wanting my grandfather to go out, but my grandfather's temper is arrogant, as long as others slander him behind his back, his evil energy will come up, however, the grandfather's idea is very simple, if you are really capable, don't play tricks behind your back, do it in a dignified and positive way, and see if you can beat me down, or if I can beat you down. At the same time, the grandfather also wants to save those girls.

Coming to the edge of the forest, the carriage was basically almost through the forest, the grandfather chased along the edge of the forest, and looked carefully, three or two carriages, there were eight horsemen riding before and after the carriage, four before and four behind, the situation inside the carriage was unknown, from the outside alone, plus the coachman, they had a total of eleven people.

The master summed it up, and if he really wanted to clean them up, he couldn't force them, so he could only wait for them to stop, and after they separated, they would be broken one by one.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound around him, and the master turned his head suddenly, and saw Xiao Laodao walking towards him lightly, Xiao Laodao gestured to my grandfather, and asked my grandfather to go back, those flower thieves are too late to hide from them now, it is best not to provoke them.

The master was unwilling, and Xiao Laodao dragged him back to the forest.

When the old man saw my grandfather coming back, he asked my grandfather, how is the situation outside, are they those people by the river last time?

The master didn't say a word, Xiao Laodao replied: "They have already gone far, after dawn, we should also separate, the fork in the forest outside the forest, go east all the way, you can get to Heze, you face east, we go south." ”

When the old man heard this, they all showed reluctance, especially the girl who was an artist, and after a moment of silence, he asked my grandfather softly, "Brother Bingshou, you go south...... Where are you going? ”

The master glanced at her and said angrily: "I have to ask Brother Xiao, where Brother Xiao said to go, I will follow him wherever I go, I have to listen to him!" ”

The girl looked at Xiao Laodao again, Xiao Laodao smiled faintly at the girl, "We have to go south to do one thing, we will not change the green mountains and green waters, there will always be a time to meet again." ”

When the girl heard this, she bowed her head and fell silent.

Early in the morning, everyone walked out of the forest and separated at the fork in the road, the old man was grateful to the grandfather and a few of them, while the girl was reluctant, her eyes were slightly red, and she kept looking at the grandfather, and the grandfather glanced away.

Just separated, the master originally wanted to beat the horse and whip and go quickly, but Xiao Laodao didn't let him, because the flower thieves before also took the road to the south, and they walked fast, what if they met them. The grandfather immediately held back the fire in his belly.

After walking forward for a while, there was a string of horses' hooves behind him, and several people looked back and saw that the girl had caught up......
