When Xiao Chujiu heard this, he took out the chisel from the burden on the horse's back and threw it to the master, Xiao Laodao said at this time: "This is the chisel I asked Wu Er to beat into the soil, you look at what's on it." ”
The master looked at the chisel several times and found that there were slight scratches on the chisel, and if you didn't pay attention, you couldn't see it at all. This chapter is also a draft.,There's something to do at night.,I'm going out soon.,It's just a rough revision.,It still needs to be fine-tuned.。
I heard Xiao Laodao say again: "This chisel is not pulled out of the soil by Wu Er, judging from the friction marks on it, it was pried out by him with his dick, I asked him if he lied to me, he knew it, but he didn't admit it, if he admitted it, I would keep him." ”
The master nodded and returned the chisel to Xiao Chujiu. It turns out that the problem lies here, it seems that Xiao Laodao's experiment is not as simple as it seems.
"It's not a big deal, it's just a small thing." Xiao Laodao continued: "I divided the objects taken out of the tomb into two piles, let him choose, these two piles of objects, look the same quantity, but the value is different, he chose the precious pile......"
When the master heard this, he looked at Xiao Laodao in astonishment, it turned out that this was also a test for Wu Er. Of course, the master couldn't tell which objects were valuable and which were not, but judging from what Wu Er said in the tomb before, he could tell what objects were valuable.
Xiao Laodao continued: "Human nature is greedy, understandable, but this tomb is not dug by him alone, if there is no us, he will dig a hole until dawn alone, although he provided the tomb site, but he chose the precious one, it can be seen that there is no one else in his heart, only himself...... Also, if he really respects me, really wants to worship me as a teacher, and really wants to honor me, he will choose the low-value pile, because when you really want to be good to someone, no matter what, you will leave the best for him, right? ”
The master didn't say anything, and nodded silently.
Xiao Laodao then sighed lightly, "Brother, don't think that my brother has a lot of eyes, as the saying goes, the eldest husband acts informally, Wu Er does this, it seems to be insignificant, and it seems to be understandable to be reasonable, using a tool to pry out the chisel is to want to worship me as a teacher, and choose the precious pile of objects, because I am ruthless and want to drive him away, since I have to drive him away, why does he leave me with valuable things?" These things, put on most people, will do this, and will think so...... However, it is precisely because of these seemingly reasonable subsections that a person's heart can often be seen the most, or the sentence I said earlier, he must really want to be good to you, and he will definitely leave the best for you...... Do our business, small rich relatives, big rich hatred, it's okay to get a small rich, once you get a big rich, father and son turn against each other, master and apprentice cannibalism, abound, although we are doing a business that can't see the light, but the light in our hearts can't be extinguished. ”
Xiao Laodao's long words made the master nod again and again, what he said was good, from some small things, you can really see a person's character and mind, if you really leave Wu Er behind, one day in the future, Wu Er will definitely see profit and forgetfulness, see money and open eyes, and everyone will suffer a big loss.
But then again, if Wu Er's matter is put on the master, if Xiao Laodao lets the grandfather choose, the grandfather will have a third choice, that is, don't want two piles of objects, turn around and leave, because what, because the grandfather will feel that this is insulting him, I am sincere to you, and in the end I will get this result? Then I don't want anything, you keep it for yourself, insult yourself.
This is the difference between a heroic hero and a villain in the market, otherwise, how could Xiao Laodao rush to win over the master.
Getting back to the point, a few days later, everyone walked out of Luoyang, at this time, everyone looked back and breathed a sigh of relief, Luoyang, Heze, these two dangerous areas, all came over safely, and then the road down, there is no need to be as careful as before.
Xiao Laodao led everyone to the official road from the country road, the road is flat and wide, and there are relatively few Xiangma bandits, and it can save a lot of time when walking.
Three days later, everyone came to the boundary of Xi'an, at this time, a small town appeared in front, Xiao Laodao said to everyone: "This Xi'an is the same as Luoyang, it is also an ancient city, and the underground tombs are not less than Luoyang. ”
At this time, the master understood that the route chosen by Xiao Laodao was actually purposeful, and he was looking for these towns with many ancient tombs to go, just to be able to lead sheep along the way.
After entering the town, Xiao Laodao took everyone to find an inconspicuous inn to live in, and after settling down, the time also came to noon, Xiao Laodao asked the shopkeeper to prepare a table of wine and food.
Just as everyone was eating and drinking around the table, a fishy smell wafted in from the door of the inn, and at this time, in addition to the grandfather and a few of them, there were other diners in the inn, all of whom turned their heads to look at the door of the inn.
From outside the inn, I saw an old man who limped in, with dirty clothes, holding a wooden stick in one hand and a broken bowl in the other, with unkempt hair and dirty face, looking fifty or sixty years old, and one of his trouser legs was still pulled up to his knees, revealing a disgusting erosive calf, as if he had some rotten sore, and flies flew on it, and the fishy smell was emanating from this rotten leg.
The diners in the inn couldn't eat anymore when they looked at the rotten calf that always begged for food, and then smelled the fishy smell like dead fish.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper in the inn hurriedly drove out the old man who asked for food, and the old man staggered and was driven out of the store.
At this time, Xiao Laodao put down his chopsticks and stood up from the table, outside the door, the shopkeeper was still driving away the old begging for food, let the old begging for food go away, don't come to the door of their store to disgust people.
Xiao Laodao walked out of the store in a few steps, stopped the shopkeeper, Xiao Laodao took out a few taels of silver from his body, stuffed it to the shopkeeper, and said, "You go and cut a few catties of cooked meat for this master, and then make two jars of wine." ”
Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly said: "This Daoist, you don't have to be so kind, there are more people who ask for food like this every day." ”
Xiao Laodao suddenly glared at the shopkeeper, "Don't talk nonsense, I'll go if I tell you to go!" ”
The shopkeeper smashed his mouth, "Okay, since you ordered it, then the little one can do it, but he can't sit in our store to eat, and he can't eat at the door!" ”
Xiao Laodao smiled coldly, "Don't worry about this, this Daoist master won't embarrass you." ”
The shopkeeper left with the silver, and at this time, the old man looked at the diners in the inn, obviously hungry, and the master picked up the two steamed buns on the table and walked out of the inn.
At this time, Xiao Laodao had already approached the old man to ask for food, smiled with a smile, and asked kindly, "Dare to ask where the old brother is from?" ”
The old man who asked for food glanced at Xiao Laodao a few times, and without saying a word, Xiao Laodao said again: "I see that my brother is dressed like this, he doesn't look like a local, he is in trouble here, and he wants to beg to return to his hometown, right?" ”
The old man looked at Xiao Laodao a few more times, but he still didn't say anything, and seemed to be a little wary of Xiao Laodao, the master walked over at this time and handed him two steamed buns, and he took them and gobbled them up.
Xiao Laodao smiled, looked at the calf of the old man asking for food, and asked in a low voice, "Old brother, your leg ...... It's poisoned, it looks like it's not more than half a month, right? ”
When the old man heard this, his face suddenly changed, and he coughed twice suddenly, as if he was choking on steamed buns.
Xiao Laodao said again: "Brother, if you believe me, just find a place near the inn to wait, and after we have all eaten, we will find a quiet place to talk in detail." ”
Hearing this, the old man stopped chewing in his mouth and glanced at Xiao Laodao, Xiao Laodao said: "I won't tell you, if your leg is not cured now, it will be scrapped in a few days." ”
Lao Yaofan's face suddenly changed again, but he still didn't speak, Xiao Laodao said: "If you believe me, just wait outside the inn, and I will come out to find you in a while." ”
At this time, the shopkeeper came over with a few catties of cooked meat and two jars of old wine, Xiao Laodao gave him a look, and the shopkeeper stuffed the meat and wine to the old man with a disgusted face, and the old man looked at the wine and meat in his arms, and then looked at Xiao Laodao, without saying a word, limped away.
The master looked at the back of the old man and asked Xiao Laodao, "Brother Xiao, will he wait for you outside?" ”
Xiao Laodao didn't answer, and smiled meaningfully.
Returning to the inn, sitting back at the dining table and continuing to eat, the master asked Xiao Lao Dao puzzled, "Brother Xiao, why are you so good to an old man today, I don't think he appreciates it." ”
Xiao Laodao actually showed a sad expression on his face at this time, "I'm good to him, because he is walking with us." ”
"Peers?" This answer surprised the grandfather and several people.
Xiao Laodao said: "His leg is not an ordinary rotten sore, it is a damp poison in the tomb, after being poisoned, it will first blister, then fester, and in the end, it will rot so much that the bones will be exposed, but the strangeness of his poison is usually poisoning in the arm, but he is poisoned in the leg." Saying that, Xiao Laodao subconsciously glanced at the girl who was an artist, and saw that the girl frowned slightly, Xiao Laodao hurriedly changed his words and said: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this for now, otherwise, we won't be able to eat." ”
At this time, in the scorching summer, after lunch, people had to take a nap, Xiao Laodao instructed the grandfather and a few of them to stay in the inn to rest, and he went outside to take a look.
The master was not sleepy at this time, and wanted to accompany Xiao Laodao to go over, Xiao Laodao nodded.
Subsequently, the two of them came to the outside of the inn to look for it, and they really found it, and the old man did not really leave, and he saw that the old man was in the corner of the inn at this time, and he was gobbling up wine and eating meat, and he was in tattered clothes, and his hair was scattered, and he looked like a starving ghost.
Xiao Laodao and Tai Ye walked to the front of Lao Yaofan, and after Lao Yaofan noticed Xiao Lao Dao and Tai Ye, he quickly stopped, raised his head and looked at the two people in astonishment.
Xiao Laodao suddenly smiled at him, "You eat first, and then we'll talk after eating." ”
The old man hesitated, put down the wine and meat in his hand, and finally said slowly: "Don't thank you, Daoist, you leave me a name, and when I go home, I will be thanked!" ”
Xiao Laodao smiled, he didn't like to ask for food, he sat cross-legged opposite him, Xiao Laodao said: "Poor Dao doesn't need you to thank you, Poor Dao just wants to know, how did you get like this." ”
Hearing this, Lao Yaofan's face suddenly changed slightly, he looked at Xiao Laodao and then at the master, and asked vigilantly, "You guys...... Who the hell are you? ”
Xiao Laodao smiled, lowered his voice and said, "What are you, we are what we are, we are peers." ”
Hearing this, the old man looked a little stunned, and hurriedly curled his right hand into a "chicken mouth" shape and pecked at the ground, the master didn't understand what it meant, Xiao Laodao understood, Xiao Laodao said: "Yes, we are also digging in the soil." ”
The old man looked at Xiao Laodao and my grandfather again, and he seemed to be very shrewd, and hurriedly asked tentatively: "You give me wine and meat to eat, do you want to get some tricks from me?" "Pullover, that is, information.
Xiao Laodao nodded and said: "Since my brother understands, then let's not talk darkly, judging from your legs, you went down this time, you ran into an accident and escaped from death, right?" ”
The old man's face suddenly darkened, and he nodded, "I'm the only one who lives, and everyone else is folded in it." ”
Xiao Laodao said: "Then can we make a deal, I will heal your legs, you take us to find the tomb, and when you dig out the wealth inside, you will inevitably share it." ”
When the old man heard this, he immediately panicked and shouted: "That tomb cannot be entered, whoever enters will die......
