Chapter 21 The Yellow River's Treasure
Xiao Jiu sank into the water and disappeared without a trace, I chased to the river, shouted twice, and did not get any response.
The Wenshui River has also calmed down, but there will still be blisters in the middle of the river from time to time, as if there is a situation underwater.
I was looking into the river when a man came running.
At first glance, it turned out to be an acquaintance.
"Qi drunk?!"
It was the drunkard Qi who ran all the way.
He still smelled of alcohol, but he seemed to be in a hurry, and he ran with his eyes fixed on the middle of the river.
He only noticed me when he heard me speak.
"Chen Ping'an?" He came to me and stared me up and down, "Why are you here?" ”
"I..."
It's about Xiao Jiu, I didn't say much, so I snorted.
"Something happened to Wenshui River, I came to take a look. It's you, this big night, why did you appear here, and you ran in such a hurry, and there was a dog behind you to chase you? ”
The drunkard ignored my quip, stared at the water, and leaned forward vigorously, as if he was about to enter the water.
I quickly pulled him in to save him from danger.
"Master Qi, be careful, there's something strange in this water."
"Of course!" The drunkard reacted very much, shook my hand away, pointed to a place in front of him, and shouted, "See! Do you see it! There! There! A peerless treasure, the most precious thing in the Yellow River, is there! ”
This posture of jumping up directly really scared me.
I asked curiously, "Where is the treasure?" I didn't see anything. ”
He continued to point to the water: "Right there, how bright in this darkness! It's shining, it's still moving. I've been by the Yellow River for so many years, and I've only heard of such a dazzling treasure of the Yellow River, but I've never really seen it, and I've almost blinded my eyes. ”
I saw him so excited, but in my eyes, the place he was pointing to was just darkness.
However, I had a bold guess in my mind.
The treasure of the Yellow River that the drunkard said was Xiao Jiu or the "thing" that Xiao Jiu said came out of the Wenshui River?
"No, I'm going to go into the water, even if I can't catch this treasure, if I can take a look, I'll be content to die."
This guy was really going into the water, so I quickly grabbed him.
"Are you stunned, where is the treasure of the Yellow River, this water is dark, there is danger to go down!"
The drunkard Qi had a lot of strength and pushed me away, and his mouth was still screaming excitedly.
"It's not good, this thing is going to run away, it's broken, it's broken..."
As he spoke, he jumped into the water.
I'm on the shore, and I can only pray in my heart that nothing will happen to Xiao Jiu, whether she is the treasure of the Yellow River as the drunkard said by the drunkard, I don't want her to have an accident.
After a few minutes, the drunkard came ashore, but he was not in a good state.
He hung his head in despair, like a defeated rooster, and shook his head while saying, "It's a pity, it's a pity, why is my life so bad, such a treasure is in front of me, and I can't even see it." ”
With Xiao Jiu in my heart, I went over to help the drunkard Qi, and asked, "Master Qi, have you seen anything underwater?" ”
"No, nothing."
After speaking, he suddenly paused, slammed into me, lowered his head and took a deep breath.
After that, he grabbed my hand tightly, looked up at me, his eyes flashed with fine light, and he wanted to see a new continent with joy, and asked, "Baby, tell me, where does the fragrance on your body come from?" With such a strong atmosphere, it must have been something or someone that he had come into contact with, right? ”
He looked the same way he looked when he was staring at the river.
I'm not stupid, and after a little thought, I can naturally figure out the reason.
The treasure of the Yellow River that the drunkard Qi said just now probably refers to Xiao Jiu, and the fragrance he said about me is because I was contaminated with Xiao Jiu together.
Although I have coexisted with Qi drunkard, he is an outsider after all, and I am protecting Xiao Jiu.
"What have you been exposed to who or something, what are you talking about, I don't understand." I replied pretendingly.
Of course, this guy couldn't coax the drunkard, this guy was stunned, grabbed me and didn't let go, and asked vigorously.
"Impossible!"
"I can smell that something is wrong with you, it was very light last time, and I didn't pay too much attention to it, now it seems that the treasure in the river just now should have something to do with you."
"Tell me, what kind of treasure is it, and how can I find it?"
I shook off his hand and said in disgust: "You are sick, I don't even know what you say, where there is any treasure, who you like to find, I don't know." ”
After that, he turned around and left, not wanting to entangle with him more.
The drunkard refused to let me go, and chased after me and asked, with a posture that he wouldn't leave if I didn't give him an explanation.
He also asked: "Something strange happened to the Wenshui River today, I heard that it almost flooded your village, does this matter have anything to do with that treasure?" ”
"I don't know."
As we spoke, as soon as we walked out of the Wenshui River, we met Sun Blind.
He was also surprised to see that the drunkard Qi was also there, but instead of speaking, he asked me first, "Are you okay?" Who the hell is that woman? ”
Before I could speak, the drunkard was in a hurry.
"Woman? What woman? ”
I immediately shook my head at the blind man without a trace, but he was half-blind and didn't know if he could see my gesture.
Sun Blind is also a clear-eyed person, so he snorted.
"It's nothing, it's just that I saw a woman running over, and I'm afraid she's been washed away by the water. By the way, why are you here so late? ”
The drunkard didn't doubt Sun Blind's words.
"I just heard about the Wenshui River, and I rushed over overnight and found that there is a big treasure in this water, a big treasure that I have never seen before, and this level of treasure only exists in the legend of the Yellow River."
Sun Blind was also shocked by the state of Qi drunkards.
"So wicked? What kind of treasure is it? Why didn't I find out? ”
"You are mortal with the naked eye, and you can't see the treasure." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at me and pointed at me, "But this baby is designated to be related to that treasure, and there is a strong fragrance on it." ”
Sun Blind still defended me, and did not ask questions, but changed the topic.
"How can peace have this blessing and be connected with treasure? Since Wenshui River is fine, let's go and go back to the village first. ”
He dragged the drunkard away, and beckoned me to follow.
The crisis in the village was lifted, some people went home, and some still burned incense and knelt down at the entrance of the village in the direction of the Wenshui River.
There was no one left in my house, so Sun Blind took us back to his house.
To entertain Qi drunkards, you can't use tea, but wine.
Sun Blind did this business, and it was indispensable to bring him wine, and he also hid good wine himself, and took it out tonight.
The drunkard who was good at wine only glanced at it and did not show any desire.
All his thoughts were on that "treasure".
I sat aside, and I was also uneasy in my heart, thinking about Xiao Jiu all the time.
It seems that she still hid it from me, she is still a treasure, a treasure that can make people like Qi drunkards crazy and frightened, the degree of preciousness and rarity is beyond my imagination.
The drunkard still decided that I had something to do with Bao, and his eyes were fixed on me.
"Ping'an, as long as you tell me about that treasure, I can give you anything, as much as you want, 10 million or 50 million, as long as you make an offer, I will agree. If you don't want money, I can give you something else. ”
On the surface, the Qi drunkard named Hanako must be rich, I don't doubt that.
Tens of millions of dollars are enough for me to have food and clothing for the rest of my life, but the more this is the case, the more uneasy I feel in my heart. Moreover, compared to money, I hope that Xiao Jiu can be safe.
I shook my head and said, "Master Qi, I really don't know what you're talking about, and I don't know what treasures you are. ”
"Gua Wazi wants to lie to me, but it's still tender, even if you don't tell me, I can find out myself." He said indignantly.
He grabbed the wine from the table and ran outside.
"I'll go out and take a look again, and I'll come back to you soon, if you don't tell me, then I'll stare at you for the rest of my life."
After no one was around, Sun Blind locked the door, leaned over to me, and asked softly: "Ping'an, tell me the truth, who is the woman who followed you just now?" ”
Sun Blind didn't have any ill will towards Xiao Jiu, even if I didn't say it, he would definitely guess in this regard, but it was better to say it, let him help me hide it, especially the drunkard.
"She... She... It's in the mass grave..."
After listening to my words, his face changed, and he muttered: "Such a great god, no wonder, no wonder, your grandmother will push you to her in life or death, such a character can definitely protect you..."
The conversation changed again.
"But... Ping'an, if you have a relationship with such an being, I am afraid that you will also be involved in unimaginable danger by her. ”
I understand the truth that it affects the pond fish, and if Xiao Jiu suffers in the future, I won't be able to escape.
I said in a deep voice, "It's already like this, I don't have any other choice. ”
"Ugh." Sun Blind sighed, "The treasure that the drunkard said is also her?" ”
I nodded: "It should be, but you can't let him know about it, you can hide it if you can." ”
"Okay."
In this way, Xiao Jiu appeared like a god in the Wenshui River, and then sank into the water and never appeared again.
I was targeted by the Qi drunkard, who squatted and guarded me every day, in his own words, as a treasure-holding person, it is possible to pay more than ten years for a treasure. Now this treasure of the Yellow River, even if it is exchanged for his whole life, it is worth it.
The calm life didn't last long.
Half a month later, I had a few words with the drunkard Qi at night, and went back to the house to sleep by myself.
Just as I was lying down and about to fall asleep, there was a knock on the door outside.
"Chen Xiaolang, my girl invites you to watch the play, and please move to the Niangniang Temple."
